I'm on 7.1.1 and tried to turn on "always on voice",so it would work even with the screen off, but the option keeps turning itself back off. Any one else have this problem? It worked before. I dont know if its just broken or if there is a setting that I need to change somewhere.
I tried turning on Trusted Voice too with no luck
Same for me
I am having the same issue. Close to doing a full reset of phone to see if that works.
same here. i did a reboot a couple times, and then before it could turn itself off, i retrained my voice model. that's been able to fix it a couple times, but other than that, idk. maybe try clearing the cache/app data.
does clearing the google app data clear the data just from my phone, or from my google account too? i wouldn't want to accidentally wipe stuff from my google account when i only want to reset the app.
"okay google" detection gets fix, once you revert to google now and train the voice model and again revert to the google assistant.
Heres exactly what i did.
1. Enolled in the google app beta (you do this by going in to the playstore, browsing to the google app screen, scrolling down and select i'm in for beta esting)
2. Added the "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" line to the build.prop
-changed product model to Pixel XlL
3.cleared the app data of the google app. Go to settings >apps >google app > manage storage > clear all data and click ok.
4.rebooted and waited a few minutes.
Presssand hold the home button the google assistant comes up, but the train voice screen continiously comes up when you say "okay google" so..
5. Go the build.prop again
-delete the "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" line
-renamed the product model to what ever it was before
Save and reboot.
6. Once it reboots you should have google now again, go to settings of the google app, go in to "okay google detection" tap always on and train your voice model.
7. Go in to build.prop again add "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" line
Change the product model to Pixel XL.
Save and reboot
DONE ! (Once you reboot, i would suggest waiting 5 minutes so itagain recognises the build prop changes) it should now trigger the assistant when you say okay google.
I am using nexus 6 with stock rom rooted btw.
What I tried, although it may not work for everyone and I have only just completed the following steps so I am not too sure if this will 'stick'
From the setting menu I noticed at the very top a suggestion to train my voice (I think the beta update to 7.1.1 deleted my trained voice), so in my case when I was trying to set my OK Google to always on it was switching off because my 'trained voice ' was not present.
I have just tried deleting and retraining my voice with the 'OK Google' buzzword and it worked
Hopefully this may be the case for most here
As soon as you toggle "always on" quickly select "retrain voice". Then it will stay on.
Ok so I posted this in another thread. I made a zip file that works on both of my phones. It's worked for a few other and a few people it has not worked for, I don't know if it has something to do with the GAaaps they are on, but if anyone would like to give it a try here is the link. http://www.mediafire.com/file/d58899gjk3w3zbx/HotwordEnrollment.zip Be sure to with the DATA from the OK Google Enrollment you may want to wipe the DATA from the Google App also, reboot then flash with TWRP.
Just retrain your voice model and should work again!

What vendor img are you using.7.1.1 or 7.0

Hi guys!
I just flashed the 4.4 factory image with full wipe, didn't root or anything, the phone is completely stock. Everything seems fine, except for Google Now: swiping up (including lock screen) starts Google Search, which doesn't listen to "Ok Google" and doesn't display what Google Now used to display, in fact it's just a blank white page with a search bar at the top.
How do I get Google Now back?
I will appreciate your suggestions!

I think OK Google is available just in the US
Also, You have to slide left for Google Now.
have you tried turning google now on? longpress any empty space on a homescreen. press settings, turn on google now. if you dont have that option, install google search from the play store.
Log into your Google account, then go in "Google Settings" -> Search, and enable Google Now in there.
Both of you are referring to the Google Experience Launcher which KitKat for Nexus 4 do not come with, it needed to be sideloaded. (Not Google Search, the Launcher apk)
After changing the language and locale to English (US) I got the "Ok Google" listening back. Looks like this feature is not available if the device is set to English (UK), which is a bit dumb.
The Google Now screen with cartoonish mountains, Google Now cards, etc are still missing. I have a blank white Google Search page with the "Search, or say "Ok Google" search bar.
I tried long-pressing on an empty space on my homescreen, there are no Settings and/or way to enable Google Now there. Any other suggestions?
I had a similar issue, even GEL and GoogleNow were installed, but "Say 'Ok Google" didn't show up.
Cleared the data of Google Play Service, had to assign my widgets again, but "Say Ok Google" showed up

Then install this launcher. Tap and hold on, go into Settings and see if it has an option to turn on Google Now. http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...once-you-get-your-kitkat-update-apk-download/

Thanks, I tried the Google Experience launcher. Unfortunately, Google Now is still missing and the settings still don't have anything related to Google Now
Update: I also tried adding a Google Now widget to the homescreen, the widget appeared saying "Google Now is not available".

I am in Cyprus, and Google Now worked just fine before.
The issue may be related to Google Location Reporting suddenly being unavailable. I can't change its settings, it just says "not available in Cyprus". I wonder why, as it used to work.

Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, this seems to require root, and my device is not rooted.
Well, let me try a factory reset, may be something screwed up during the initial setup
Update: tried everything suggested, except deleting Google Search which requires root, and Google Now is still missing I give up.
Update 2: apparently, I'm not the only one with this issue, Google product forums are full of people with missing Google Now. So far nobody knows why it suddenly disappeared after upgrade to 4.4 and/or how to get it back.
Ok so I was disabling a bunch of pre-installed apps from my S4 but mistakenly disabled 'Google Search'. Dumb move I know.
The first image is my current phone's firmware.
The problem I'm having is that when I go itno Settings>Application Manager>Disabled and click on Enable it asks me if I want to "Delete all Data and Disable App"
Clicking on cancel just returns me to the App Info screen where the Enable button taunts me with it's uselesness.
Clicking on OK asks me if I want to "Replace This App with the Factory Version"
I've tried disabling and re-enabling other apps to see if it's a phone problem, but those other apps have re-enabled just fine.
I'm stumped as to what to do. I don't want to delete all the data as I have 'Google Now' calibrated just perfectly to my current lifestyle, and I really don't want to do a 'Facotry Reset', setting everything back up again is a massive ball-ache I would certainly like to avoid.
Any suggestions would be a great help :fingers-crossed:
EDIT:
Ok so afer getting impatient I just decided to go ahead and click on "Replace App with Factory Version"
After deleting all the data the "Enable" button re-enabled the app as expected.
When I opened the app I got a message saying that an 'Updated Version is Available on The Play Store' so I went ahead and updated it and then replaced the Google Now widget on on my phone.
To my surprise, all of my 'Cards' and recent searches were still there, I guess as Google collects as much data on us as possible I should of expected they would of retained it, and on this case I'm glad they did.
So in short - Problem Solved.
Has anyone managed to get Assistant to work? I'm in the UK. I read on one of the OnePlus community forums that you need to change device language to English (USA), which I've done. Still no Assisstant. Anyone managed to get it to work/have any ideas?
It is only google now, not google assistant
I needed to clear all data after changing language to English (USA). But I've got it working now.

After you got it working, did you have any issues in retraining your voice. I have a problem where it appears to be listening for me to say Ok Google 3 times but never recognises anything.?

I am pretty sure I have google assistant

Doesn't work for me either. I have set the language to English USA. Tried to clear Google app cache and data to no avail.

I got Google Assistant working by following the instructions from the YouTube video in this thread's post #4. All was fine for a while and then GA no longer worked sometime after I applied one of the OTA's. I can't say that was the cause but the timing was coincidental. GA seemed to react but not fully engage. I tried a lot of things including re-training the "OK Google" but nothing worked.
Finally I followed the part of post #4's cache clearing of Google and Google services apps cache (remember there is more than one cache) and then went through the Google Assistant set up as if it had never been working. That fixed my issues and has been working ever since. I'll see if the same problems arise after the next OTA. So I'd trying clearing the cache of those two apps EXACTLY as shown in the video.
Edit: I've applied OTA for v4.5.5 and have not had any Google Assistant issue

You have to clear the data cache for play services as well.
For those that got Google Assistant working are you having any issues such as those described below?
Trusted voice which enables Google Assistant from the lock screen does not work despite the proper settings in place
Creating a Google Assistant shortcut not works
IFTTT doesn't seem to work as advertised (I'm still working on this one)
I've had no end of small issues trying to customize Google Assistant but the main built in functions (e.g. weather, search, Spotify commands, open app) work perfectly.
Just curious about other people's experience. It leaves me feeling Google Assistant is just a beta program/work-in-progress on a phone or a tease to get you to buy a Google Home despite always having a much more capable device in the palm of your hand (your phone). I don't want an ugly Google Home "air freshener" when I already have an Android SD835/8GB phone.
When you say Google Assistant... Do you mean ok Google from screen off?

Google Assistant works with the screen off as long as the OP5 is NOT locked. Working while locked is supposed to work only when Trusted Voice is turned on. Unfortunately I have turned on trusted voice but Google Assistant will not initiate (work) when the OP5 is locked.
OK Google has a different interactive screen than Google Assistant. The OP5 OOS comes with OK Google but you need to manually activate Google Assistant before experiencing its advanced AI features. You would also see new Google Assistant specific settings at the top of the Google app->Settings->Google Assistant->(Settings, What can you do?).
One of the early posts in this thread has the link to manually activate Google Assistant.
Yeah, I have Google Assistant but I am pretty let down by the fact it doesn't work with the screen off and locked. I have heard it's a license that has to be paid to googs
Mine worked with no fuss. What doesn't work is the trusted voice and waking the phone up when the screen is off. That one I can't figure out

I've found a hacky workaround for this issue by using a combination of apps. First off I only use this method when I'm connected to the charger which is no different than the Trusted Voice limitations. Second my lock screen is only enabled when I'm not on a charger.
Use the Caffeine app to block the automatic lock screen. Check settings "Autoactive on USB", "Autoactive on USB type/AC charger", "Enable caffeine at boot".
Buy and install the app Screen Off (No Lock). I couldn't find a free app that turned off the screen but did not also lock it.
Then use the Google Assistant command "OK Google open screen off" to invoke turning the screen off but still having Google Assistant listening for my next command. I also use Tasker and it's Voice Assist plugin connection to Google Assistant so added the "start Screen off" as the last task in my Voice Assist profiles.

For the most part Google Assistant works for me but important features either lack reliability or don't work at all.
Google Assistant macros don't work at all despite built in GA commands working (e.g. play on Spotify)
I can't seem to make a IFTTT connection work
The connection between GA and Tasker's VoiceAssist is unreliable. Too often GA intercepts a regular Tasker Event phrase and displays a google search screen but the Tasker event for the phrase does not trigger. This despite the Tasker VoiceAssist toast displaying the correct event phrase. I'll try it a second time and this time it'll work despite GA recognizing the exact same phrase (not a variation).
I've been able to create some cool home theater (Harmony Hub) automation profiles but the unreliability has me wondering if I'm wasting my time. I really like the whole Google Assistant and the Tasker extension but am not prepared to continue developing things unless I can increase the overall stability.
It may just be my OP5 which is running OOS 4.5.5, rooted with SuperSU with Viper4Android installed. Other than that I've not altered the stock OOS experience. I've not even removed any bloat ware.
Does anyone have the Google Assistant macros and/or IFTTT working on their OnePlus 5?
I've previously posted that Google Assistant's macros didn't work for me but I received an update to the Google app v7.7.14.21.arm64 (Beta) and Google Assistant's macros are suddenly working. Even macros I'd previous entered but had never worked. I also added new ones and they also worked.
What stopped working was Tasker receiving the OK Google spoken commands, (no VoiceAssist toasts). I need to explore further as the newly functioning macros may be a far better way to integrate with Tasker. I'll likely retry the recommended Google Assistant/IFTTT/Tasker integration which also didn't work prior to this latest update.
It's working perfectly
Just did as it was said on the video. Everything works perfectly, including the "OK Google" detection while the screen is off. No problems whatsoever.
To Note: Even i changed the language back to English(UK) after all was setup, and works like a charm. :good:
Anyone having issues with the Google app? At 1st when I got the phone with stock app versions, "Hey Google" was working fine. But since I updated the app... (Regular & Beta versions) the only way to make it work is by pressing the microphone icon. (thru widget or app itself) But it never works via voice command (by saying Ok Google/Hey Google) Any ideas? It simply doesn't work. (Using Stock Launcher/ Nova Launcher/ Any Launcher & cleared app cache/data) Thanks.
Solution
Works fine for me, using lawnchair v2 though I doubt that makes a difference. Maybe retrain voice?
Works fine for me on stock launcher. Just tried it and woke up every Google device in the living room including my OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren and Google Home Hub. I'd say retrain your voice to it.
I'm actually having the same issue and idk why either lol, worked fine out of the box and then I updated and it no longer works lol
I had to delete and retrain my voice recognition profile before "hey google" kicked in again.
Reboot device and force close google with clear data and retrain google voice pet ? working fine
Found a solution...
Settings > Security & lock screen > Smart Lock > Voice Match > and enable "Access with Voice Match"
Finally Ok Google / Hey Google working 100%
Finally!
On all official roms till now I have the problem that my google assistant stops working after circa 1 day. "Hey google" and long press on the home button don't work anymore.
To fix it I have to clean the storage of the Google app. Does any have a permanent fix?
Seriously nobody else has this problem ?
Haven't heard of anyone your issue around here...
Did you try "Uninstall updates" for that app...
I got the same problem. Everytime I restart the phone, I have to clear cache and storage for google. Otherwise "Hey google" isn't working (It says "Set Google as the default Assist"). Clearing storage and cache is not an option, because I have each time f.e. to add cards to google pay.
