When using my Axon 7, I noticed that whenever I long press the capacitive home button, it opens up Google voice. I'm using Nova Launcher on root and even though there is an option to change it, it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to change this?

Have you rooted yours yet? And are you sure it's Google Voice? If anything it should be the Google app.

I am sorry for any confusion. Let me explain more clearly. I am currently rooted. Also, I did not mean Google Voice. I simply meant that long-pressing the the capacitive home button launches the Google app. I want to remove that and select something else. If it can't be done then that is all that I want to know. I'll live. It really isn't a big deal. I just hope that someone has an answer.

Apologies, I didn't see that you did say you were rooted. Not sure why it won't work with Nova. I thought perhaps it might have something to do with root. Although it shouldn't.

Go to Settings. Go to All Settings. Press the search icon. Type "assist". Choose "Assist & voice input" then choose "Assist & voice input" again. Then choose what you want there.

if I type assist in the search it finds nothing?!
If you have root and xposed works on it then you could try "xposed additions". Remapping home to flashlight has revolutionised how I pee at night
Has anyone figured out how to do this? I've tried every setting and app and rooted app under the sun. Absolutely nothing disables this "feature".

This method working just fine. Even with EU model. Thanks :good:
"Go to Settings. Go to All Settings. Press the search icon. Type "assist". Choose "Assist & voice input" then choose "Assist & voice input" again. Then choose what you want there."
Make sure you tap on the words "Assist & voice input" NOT on the gear icon. Then you should be able to change the setting to none. Then you can use Nova to make the changes you want.

Anyone having issues with Home2Shortcut ? I have used this on my S3 to make Google voice search come up w/ a doublepress of the main button. With the S4, looks like it does not want to work - S-Voice keeps coming up even though I have Voice Search selected and have Home2Shortcut set as a default.
Just curious if anyone has got it working.

S voice is setup to start up by default with the double tap of home button. Go to S Voice App> Settings > Uncheck double tap to start s voice. I did this as soon as I got phone then disabled svoice without clearing its data to avoid the lag when hitting home key
That did it! Thank you my friend.

i totally disabled s voice...i setup home2 but now when i double click on the home button, i see a window open and close and its saying "say call followed by a name or a number" any ideas?
What app are you linking to? Should be Voice Search, linked to home key > App.

Are you trying to say that you accidentally changed the swipe up from home and you want to change it back, or that you are trying to change it to do something else?

Pick an alternate launcher.
Using Nova:
Nova Settings > Gestures and Buttons > Home Button > "choose action you want here".
I used to be able to double tap home to open Google Now. Now it opens S Voice. How can I make it open Google Now.
Also... Does anyone actually prefer S Voice?
Thanks!

You need root for that, use Wanam xposed to configure double tap on hope run Google Now.

I am rooted, however, I cannot run Xposed because it borks games by SquareEnix, and I play FFIV lol. Thanks though!
Any other ideas?
very simple; Install home2 shortcut, assign double-click button to Google now. I have mine set to voice search, so I don't even have to hit my mic when I open google now.
Very convenient when driving
BTW, NO root required!
Even better for driving is to enable the "Hi Galaxy" wake command. Then use tasker to switch over to Google Voice Search each time S - voice runs. There's a 1 sec or so delay but it works and no hands required.

I now realize after switching to Nova launcher this disables the ability to return to your main home screen from another home screen. Is there any xposed or other solution I can use to avoid this issue? I already tried xbutton actions with no option to use double click home button to launch anything!
S for switch voice app in playstore. No root needed.
I really missed the Note 2 default of long pressing the menu key to invoke Google search. Here's the workaround I've been using today that I think is kind of cool:
Make sure S-Voice is enabled on your device. In the S-Voice app, use Menu>Settings to enable double tapping the home key to activate S-Voice. Also handy to set the "Hello Galaxy" command to wake the device into S-Voice.
Activate S-Voice by double tapping the home key, or saying "Hello Galaxy" while the device is asleep.
Once S-Voice is listening, say "Open Google".
Once Google search is open, you can say "Ok Google" as normal.
This sounds more involved than it actually is, and I now feel I have a way to get fast access to my preferred voice assistant again.

You can use wanam to remap hardware keys. So you can actually make it open Google now directly

Not rooted. Should probably have mentioned that.
Sent from my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3 using Tapatalk Pro
Also should mention that, unlike remapping the buttons, this technique gives you a way to kind of "bootstrap" yourself using voice alone from screen off right into google now with the mic active.
Sent from my AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 3 using Tapatalk Pro
Another option is to use a custom launcher. Apex allows you to bring up Google now with the menu key. Don't know how you feel about ditching touch wiz though.

1. Go to app S Voice, enable home key to activate S Voice.
2. Go to app info for S Voice, clear defaults.
3. Go to your touchwiz home screen and double click your home button, it should ask to set default for the search.
4. Select Google and put always.
I have google as my default this way..

Hmm. I would love for mine to work that way, but when I go into the app info for S Voice, the button to clear defaults is disabled and it says no defaults are set.
I do have the option within S Voice set to activate S Voice when double tapping the home key, and that is working.
When I posted this, I assumed everyone not rooted had the same situation as me, where there was simply no way to have anything but S Voice be the default for a home key double tap.
Seems that's not the case, though I can't imagine why.

Unfortunately, this does not work for me. When I go into S-Voice, the home key option is already enabled. The option to "clear defaults" is grayed out in the App Manager. Disabling and re-enabling the home key in S-Voice does nothing. Same with clearing all S-Voice data in the App Manager.

Same here. Also, when I disable S-Voice entirely using the App Manager, I still don't get an option to set the home key double click to Google Now.

I can confirm that this works. If you hold the menu key for a short period, Google Now pops up and if you hold it longer S Finder pops up.
i agree with gator, home2 is the best at that. i have used it for about a yr or so and its flawless
Can't figure this one out. Using the LG keyboard, I do not have a mic icon no matter what I try (it is enabled in settings). Selecting Google Voice typing doesn't even open. Using the stock google keyboard from the play store doesn't allow me to select the mic icon either from the ',' key. I have checked the installed voice engines (LG, Pico) and installed the google voice engine but nothing works. Anyone else having problems with this function?

Yes exact same issue- in settings under Lang and Input & LG Keyboard, voice input is auto selected but grayed out. Google search bar widget shows mic icon in preview view, but when I add it to the home screen the mic icon is gone and nothing happens when you click on the bar. Phone's mic is working normally. Gettin worried....
Same problem!
24A IOroot TWRP 2.7 Malladus 2.0.2.
To text, I have to tap a LOT of buttons.
1 tap on text icon.
Then tap the + icon to compose new message.
Then tap the status bar button to drop down status bar.
Then tap choose input method.
Then choose either "Google voice typing" or "LG Keyboard".
Then choose contact.
Then text.
There is no microphone icon on the LG keyboard for texting.
I'm a noob. This is the clunkiest text interface I could imagine.
What am I missing? Is there a text app I need to download to get a better interface with the ROM?
Thanks for any help!!
I can drop-down the status bar and touch allows me to select between Google mic or LG keyboard,

BTW - my google voice typing does work when I select it as described above.
I enabled it under Settings / Language and Input.
Try uninstalling Google voice search and then reinstalling it. This worked for me.

Do you have a settings cog to the left of your space bar? If so long press that and you are presented with options including the microphone. Once you click on the microphone the popup window goes away and the settings cog is replaced with a microphone. This worked for me when I had the LG Keyboard. I'm currently using the AOSP keyboard which has the microphone by default.

Worked like a charm!
My button left of the keyboard had the pencil. On longpress, it gives the option of pencil, mic, settings, or a note thingy.
I had it in my head that my problem was some kind of buggy thing associated with removing bloat and stuff.
In fact, it was nothing more than "please try to learn how to use your own phone".
So I kinda feel dumb....
But on the positive side, you look brilliant!

I had the exact same problem, and after hours of searching, found that somehow Google Search was disabled. Go to settings/applications and slide all the way to the right under "disabled" and click on Google Search, and then re-enable it.
Next, go to General Settings/Language & Input and make sure there is a check next to Google Voice Typing. Problem should be solved.
