OK my Commando is rooted - yeah!

I removed BING and now that its removed, the search hard button on the lower right does not function. Prior to rooting, if you held it down it bring up the BING voice search app.
How can I direct that button to use Google Voice search instead??

I'm a newbie do be gentle.
 
it's your stock home launcher goes to bing. I personally use GO Launcher EX with Blux AS theme. It's got some cool effects, and I like it. Others are using ADW Launcher, Launcher 7, Launcher Pro, or most recently in the limelight the Zeam Launcher.
The Zeam launcher is a baseline launcher with no special effects and nothing cool about it, but the Commando wasn't designed for speed; it was designed for durability, so the Zeam launcher works pretty fast with no hangups on our phones. I personally don't like it because it has barely any options, and no cool transition effects.

It's all personal preference though. My phone will experience lags every now and then, and probably shorter battery life, but I like the way it looks.
 
Again being a newbie, are the things you are talking about apps, or OS? Do I find them in the marketplace?
How are they loaded into the phone?
Is there a simple way to just point the button to load google voice search?

Thanks in advance!

When you hold down the search button, when it pops up the choose app notification be sure to check use by default
