Yes it does not require root, install as usual app (does not require to be in /system/app)
I disabled some things in voice input initializing code that require api 16, have to look deeper to resolve this, but i have no free time at the moment, so this will not be done tomorrow
The other idea is to port the missing JB apis to ICS, this should allow other JB apps to run too.
@seahorsepip while playing around with jb apps i changed my api version in build.prop to not require recompile any time - forgot this change for velvet...
ROM:
xiMix_MIUI.us V4 2.6.29 ICS_DE_EN
Normal installation and everything is perfect
Doesn't seem to want to work on 3G/HSPA or WiFi now. Whenever I search for something, it just keeps loading with the loading spinner. Anyone else having these issues?
EDIT: if I clear data (which also clears cache), then try and search, it works, but only until I back out of the app. Then it just goes on a continuous loading cycle again till I clear data.
Same here have to close and restart app after 1 or 2 searchesDoesn't seem to want to work on 3G/HSPA or WiFi now. Whenever I search for something, it just keeps loading with the loading spinner. Anyone else having these issues?

The voice recognition won't work for anybody as I disabled it, because it depends on jb API. Current workaround that may work is to use the voice input key on your keyboard after tapping the search input field.
Edit: the apk won't install if you got quicksearchbox in /system/app or installed.

atleast the app starts xD
Do I need to uninstall Google Search and than install this one? Its saying the same existing package has a conflicting signature.

Is it worth uninstalling quicksearch for this, being that you cant use voice with it?
About the permission denied fc, I'm guessing the users with the issue have an old gmail? Try updating or using tsjoklats patched one and the note to self fc will go away. See what logs do?
Oh and just to explain, the old gmail allows stuff based on signature, so as this apk is resigned it will not be allowed. The new.gmail marks it as.dangerous and will create a.notification for you to allow permission, or the patched one marks it as normal and allows it silently.
This following post only applies currently to the stock rooted LH2 rom for the Galaxy S III TMO and Google Now installation.
The Samsung Kies update that removed the universal search function won't allow this to install via regular methods.
All files are on the device with the correct permissions except because of the different search apk (GoogleQuickSearchBox_USA.apk) the method mentioned in the OP won't work until you delete the _USA part of the file and then reboot into recovery and reflash following the OP instructions.
can you guys with the network error try this one (and log if possible)

push it to /system/app and replace the old one velvet apk if there's any.
looks like a google account issue to me ??
