@Olivier,

 Today I tested it, I use 'adb shell' to enter shell. I made the dirs in 
.config and .local, and set it as duckduckgo as search engine, after that I 
change the owner and permission of directory and files. 
Then I reboot my Nexus 4, and open browser, input "haha" at address bar, found 
it still use google.com as default engine, could you help me to find the 
reason? Thanks!

 # mkdir /home/phablet/.config/webbrowser-app/
 # cat /home/phablet/.config/webbrowser-app/settings.conf 
 searchengine=duckduckgo
 
 # mkdir /home/phablet/.local/share/webbrowser-app/searchengines
 # cat /home/phablet/.local/share/webbrowser-app/searchengines/duckduckgo.xml
