I want to develop search bar like bellow image just like showing in Google search bar. How to achieve this. Please some can provide sample code or related links to achieve it.
I assume the actual question here is not how to create a widget (if it is, check the official Android documentation on widgets), but how you can enable a widget to receive text input, which, as far as i am aware, is not possible using standard widget elements.
You will probably have to try the way discussed over here - creating a transparent activity when your widget is tapped.

I am developing an android app which requires search functionality.
My app contains action bar and I have search button on it. On click of search button, I want search dialog to appear on top and do some search for me.
I need help in implementing this.
I tried the Google I/O sched project, but its too complex for me.
Can anybody help me develop a simple search dialog.
Also, I want the search to have 2 search options.
I have 2 different lists containing different data. So, I want to make search on both these lists but separately.
Check out this twitter app, the search bar has 2 options, it can search from tweets or people, I want some thing like thatA.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Hi I want to include word suggestions in my custom keyboard.
e.g if I write wi it should suggest me whether you want to write "winner" "winks" "wilson" etc
Please guide me.
Thanks
Here is the real answer to this question.
It was hard for me to find:
First you need to:
Add Words to Android's UserDictionary
By having the words in the dictionary, they will show up in suggestions.
If you want to exclusively show your words however, then something like the auto-complete dropdown idea is a better fit (that the other answers linked)
You can search for source code for android keyboard that are having this suggestion bars, i.e. download source for android gingerbread 2.3 keyboard source code, as android is opensource you can get the code easily.
