Question

I’m developing an application right now and I need to disable the quick-search-box as somehow it dismisses my dialog boxes that request info to keep people who are not supposed to be using my application out [its in development, and its on the market – it makes it much easier to keep people up to date]. Listeners for all types of dismissing dialogs are never triggered – and I don’t know why. I’ve looked everywhere and I get no result on how to disable this. (2.1 and up).
How to disable QSB..? was a good start, but it doesn’t work. I don’t know why google insists I use this… I have absolutely no need for this in my application.
How can I go about fixing this… or do I have to try another sort of DRM?

Answer 1

You can block the search on your activity or dialog by implementing this and returning false:

public boolean onSearchRequested() {
    return false;
}

UPDATE:
Code works on dialogs, too
