Well when I heard that now you can use the search button to search from the phone,I was excited as on my old sgs2 it worked nicely, not to mention iPhone 3gs. Went to search and typed a friends name in it. I was expecting a pop of results as it did on android and IOS. What I did not expect was "loading" screen which stayed like 10-15 seconds before returning results. Is this working like intended or a bad joke? Can't be hardware as my old phones had crappier specs. So atm if I need to search for example a message sent by my brother I won't use the search button, but instead go the traditional way via people hub.

The delay is because it actually searches on the web first. When it's done that you can swipe across to 'phone' and it should pull up those messages. Pain I know, since you can't change that default behaviour.

As you're searching, you should see a suggestion dropdown list. Usually if you're typing the name of a phone contact, it'll appear at the top of that list.

Yea, maybe I was wishing I could set the mentioned default behavior in it. Oh well maybe I'll wait for it to mature more 😊
