Hello,
I am not sure is this issue related with Commerce Kickstart or Search API, as you know the exposed search field's default id (Filter identifier) is "search_api_views_fulltext", when I changed that filter identified the placeholder lost. I changed that filter identifier as "search" and there is no placeholder for that field, I tried to show it for 3 hours but I unable to show if not id "search_api_views_fulltext".

please advice.

The id must be search_api_views_fulltext, the Kickstart source code always makes that assumption when altering the form.
There wouldn't be any way to identify the Search field otherwise.

Leaving this open in case jsacksick can think of anything smart I might have missed :)

The attached patch should fix the issue, I also committed a fix to the Omega Kickstart theme because it was specifically targetting the #search-api-views-fulltext selector. See http://drupalcode.org/project/omega_kickstart.git/commit/086eb42
Here's the gerrit commit : https://code.drupalcommerce.org/#/c/694/
