How to launch suggestions immediately in Android searchable before the user has even started typing
<p>I'm doing some research on ContentProviders and Searchable configurations. I've set up a class that extends a Content Provider with a database that provides suggestions from a database as the user types. This uses the Search Manager paradigm (not a SearchView).</p>

<p>Up to this point, everything works great.</p>

<p>What I'd like to do and am having problems with is to display some suggestions <em>before</em> the user starts typing, after he launches the search. Setting the property 'android:searchSuggestThreshold="0" ' in the searchable.xml only works if the user actually taps into the search textbox after launching it - I would like to display suggestions immediately after the search has been launched (i.e. not wait for the user to do anything else).</p>

<p>Any ideas?</p>

<p>Edit: An example of what I'm talking about is the search functionality in the Google Play Store app - right when a user taps the Magnifying glass for search, a list of recent suggestions immediately pops up.</p>
