Yes I have tried everything that has been written or suggested on how to fix the fixup. Still nothing has worked. About:config everything has been set to false that has been suggested. It seems this latest version wants to eliminate our ability to customize and you even know how dangerous this is.

Changing browser.newtabpage.activity-stream.improvesearch.handoffToAwesomebar to false in about:config still works for me, typing into the search box on the new tab page does not shift focus to the address bar.
