Google Assistant hotword apk switch not working on NMF26F? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

It seems Google Assistant hotword apk swap on NMF26F 7.1.1 no longer works for training the vice activation.
I've tried the old apk, and the new one, same thing.
Can anyone else confirm?
Anyone find a solution on NMF26F?

What are you trying to swap where?

@Jammol
In android 7.x prior to NMF26F, to get Google Assistant working correctly, you had to swap out OK Google enrollment apk (hotwordenrollment.apk)
Otherwise a screen would pop up asking you to train your voice every time you said OK Google.
This swapping out of apks does not seem to work on NMF26F anymore.

That's weird. I have never had to swap that apk on stock Android. Assistant works by just flashing any of the mods for it, and wiping the data of the Google app. Are you referring to when flashing AOSP Roms and getting assistant perhaps?

@Jammol
Custom ROMs yes, mostly based on AOSP, but primarily on the stock Nexus firmware, as I specify here NMF26F 7.1.1 for 6p

That's why I asked what and where. Lol.
The hot word swapping hasn't been working for some since 7.1 AOSP based Roms. All of the STOCK based Roms don't need it either unless the dev stripped out everything Google related and force you to flash OpenGapps.
However, what you saying is that you are on a STOCK based 7.1.1 rom and the assistant isn't working? What is the rom name?

@Jammol

That Rom is still AOSP based. Are you copying a Deodexed version of the apk? That Rom appears to be Deodexed, and I know that the Stock firmware os Odexed by default. You can check the PN or CM14 thread to see if anyone has posted a Deodexed version of the apk. You can probably even just Google Search for one.

You're welcome. I wish you the best of luck. Hotword detection has been the biggest pain in the butt with AOSP ever since OpenGapps made changes to the way they build Gapps.

I should note however that it's the same hotword apk I've copied in the past, and it worked. For some reason the same apk does not work this time.
Maybe the developer of ROM switched odex/deodex with the latest build.
The previous build was 7.1 I think, where as the new one I thought he wrote was based off the new stock firmware NMF26F

Using the old oak doesn't work for me anymore either since upgrading to 7.11 on Nitrogen's latest build. I can train my voice and it will work the first time but everything then after it brings up the screen to train voice again. Oddly though if you dismiss the voice training by clicking the later button assistant is there and will work until you close it out.

It does not work on SlimKat Alpha 1.1 from my testing, including a full wipe afterwards as well as cache/dalvik only, tried twice as well.
If it works on houstonn's AOSP, it will probably work on his PA as well but I haven't tested that just yet.
I'm going to try to manually do it and report.
I have a Sprint HTC One running the latest CM11 build by "kushdeck" and just flashed the deodexed version. Following your steps provided all works flawlessly. Thanks so much for making this available to everyone.

Thanks you for the reports so far. Glad it works (for most of you).

Community,
As great as the custom ROMs are for the N5 on Kit Kat, the Google Dialer differs from the AOSP one included in many ROMs in certain aspects:
- uses the "old" 4.3 Phone Icon
- Misses the local search from your dialer app.
In order to help, I have put together 2 versions of the dialer, the teleservices (for phone) and the telephony provider.
Deodexed Version: Included all 3 apps deodexed (dialer, teleservices, telephony provider)
Odexed: Version; Contains APK and .odex files for the 3 apps
GAPPS uploaders are considering whether the Dialer is universal and may include it in their GAPPS in the neat future, for now, we need a seperate flashable zip.
Installation Change the dialer only: (ALWAYS make a backup before you test)
1. Depeding on your ROM, download the ODEX or DEODEX version. I highly recommend the odexed version, that is the one I use currently.
2. Install in recovery.
3. Clear cache/dalvik-cache
4. Reboot
NOTE: Depending on the ROM, you may see a f/c when booting from the com.android.phone apk. If that happens, you may need to WIPE your device and reboot. I have not understood yet why some roms have issues, and others do not. I just recently tested with a dirty wipe from CM11 to another AOSP rom, flashed the ROM, installed the Dialer-mod and it all works fine.

That is just yours. And I changed the TeleService icon. I don't like an 4.3 icon in 4.4, even though it can't be seen in Google Home.

The TeleService.apk in BANKS gapps is the same as yours. If yours doesn't work, his doesn't, either.
Gotcha. The only thing he does differently is not deleting the aosp dialer.. Which means no FCS for people that had them before. Both banks and I are trying to figure you why it works on most Roms and some others require both dialers...

TeleService.apk (com.android.phone) (I will write TS for short.) is the most important apk.
When a call comes, TS in AOSP wakes up Dialer to show the answer button and interface, while TS in Nexus 5 wakes up Google Dialer.
So if the TS points to Google Dialer and works without FC, all the problems are resolved.
If we find that it doesn't work in some ROMs, that means the ROM requires a different TS.

true - however, given that my and his script replace the TS from AOSP with the Google TS -> it should, in theory, not matter which ROM. UNLESS there is a lib or something similar that calls a specific TS to work only....

[Guide] [Easy] THE G-Pixel experience! (Cyanogenmod 14 | Google Assistant | MORE)

Hello!
I was feeling helpful today so I decided to create a Guide on how to make your Oneplus X as similar as possible to the new Google Pixel phones, software wise.
So here we go:
Requirements
Code:
[LIST=1]
[*]Oneplus X (You never know)
[*][URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-update-bootloader-firmware-to-t3478917"][B]New Bootloader[/B][/URL]
[*][URL="https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/guide-onyx-how-to-unlock-bootloader-install-custom-recovery-root-take-efs-backup-more.401713/"]Unlocked Bootloader[/URL]
[*][URL="https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/guide-onyx-how-to-unlock-bootloader-install-custom-recovery-root-take-efs-backup-more.401713/"]custom recovery installed (I'll be using TWRP)[/URL]
[*]minimal tech savyness
[*][I]SD Card (Optional but RECOMMENDED)[/I]
[/LIST]
Step 1erforming a backup of Data
I would recommend you backed up your data because this process WILL wipe it.
Here is a guide on how to backup your device
Step 2: Downloading ZIPs
Okay, so here is the annoying part, downloading the actual ZIPs that we're going to be installing on your device. I'll do the hard part, finding all the links
Rom: Recommended version
If you are using my recommended version (first link) please make sure you have updated your bootloader to the latest version.
Google Apps (Play Store etc): http://opengapps.org/
Please check these boxes for the best experience: arm | 7.1 | nano
SuperSU: https://download.chainfire.eu/696/supersu/
Google Assistant: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69074667&postcount=112"
Please download all three files provided in the download page
*Optional* Google Launcher / Dialer / Bootanimation / Ringtones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/google-pixel-experience-launcher-dialer-t3478907
After you downloaded those files, please move them to your SD CARD. If you don't have one, just move them as far as possible upwards.
Step 3: Booting into custom recovery
This is probably the easiest step, simply power off the Device and perform the following action:
Long press the POWER BUTTON + VOLUME DOWN BUTTON until you arrive into recovery.
Step 4:Wiping everything
Unfortunately, because we are installing a new ROM, we can't keep all our data because it would conflict with the new version.
On the GUI of your chosen recovery, find the WIPE option and wipe System and Data. Make sure you don't wipe the place where you downloaded the ZIPs and where you may have backed up your device.
Step 5:Installing ZIPs
Navigate to the "Install" section on your Custom Recovery and "flash" one by ALL the Zips we downloaded. Please follow this order:
Code:
[LIST=1]
[*] Rom | Cyanogenmod 14
[*] SuperSU
[*] Google Apps
[*]The all-in-one ZIP that includes Google Launcher / Dialer / Boot animation / Ringtones
[*] Google Assistant
[I]If you are not sure about a ZIP, I would invite you to look at the forum thread's steps.[/I]
[/LIST]
Step 6:Done!
There you go! You have completed the installation process. You should be able to boot up the device and restore the backup. If you have problems. I'd invite you to look at the replies and if you can't find anything there, feel free to ask me.
Code:
Disclaimer: I am not affiliated in any way with the geniuses who created those ZIP files.
I am merely trying to be helpful to the average user who is not very knowing in this field.
I would also like to say that I am not responsible for anything that could happen to your phone.
Your phone could be blow up* and start World War 3, that wouldn't be my problem.
[I]*It shouldn't though.[/I]

So for your opion better pixel luncher or cyanogenmod? In your Oneplus X the luncher or Google Assistant have bugs?
Edit: you need to rewrite everything because in the mobile version is all a mess.
Looks great on my mobile browser thanks for this. Will give it a go when I have time. Side note this doesn't require certain Google app version?
Guide works perfect ! Except the boot animation scaled incorrectly (not your problem)

Would this work on Exodus 6.0 Rom? Or any other ROM except for CM?
Thanks for sharing this !
Great to see the community coming up with hacks and mods for us with an old chipset!
Additionally you can try the Live Pixel Wallpapers back-ported to ARM & 6.0 by another developer.

Any time I try to use Assistant from "Ok Google" keyword, it asks me to retrain my voice - have you noticed this ?
The bodge fix workaround is to use Tasker + AutoInput to always click "Later" when it asks you to retrain and it takes you straight to the assistant.
I'd be interested to hear whether you had a similar issue

Best nougat Rom , With ColorOS Camera.

Hello friends, I have been looking for some rom with the possibility of using ColorOS camera with its plugins.
I have been watching and reading several posts where some roms are discussed, where you can use ColorOS camera.
I would like to know if you know some Rom Nougat with good development where you can use it.
I currently have cm14.1 25/12 the last update and the camera works partially, the plugins do not
Thank you very much
Sorry for my english (google translate (K))
I tried on Nitrogen Os,got fc.
I hope someone who tried on other N ROMs could help us.
Also on Resurrection Remix
Camera open and no problem but plugins can't work
On Omni Rom they said it's support ColorOs but I didn't try it yet
try Darkobas 7.1.1 it has color os cam
link : here
ColorOS camera sadly does not work perfectly with Nougat.
I use-
[ROM][OFFICIAL][7.1.1_r6][BACON][OPTIMIZED]RESURRECTION REMIX [5.8.0]
&
[UPDATE][MOD]CameraNextMod[Based on Cyanogen OS 13 CameraNext](Denoise Feature)

Do you use it as a daily driver? I'm backing everyting up to make the switch from CM due to obvious reasons but I want to make sure I'm picking the most stable rom out there that's also 7.1
Currently using Nitrogen OS (2017/01/08), 4.0.1.c7-00013 firmware, reporting zero issues with ColorOS 2.67+camera+change.zip flash. I do not flash the CM_HAL_MOD.zip.
Hope that helps!

Sorry but probably last question. Which GAPPS should I go for to also get full functionality like the Google assistant and such. So far I tried flashing the ARM Stock but it seems to get an error and not install. Something about insufficient storage in the System Partition.

Mini is the maximum size of Gapps I guess supported by this ROM. After flashing just install 'get assistant' app from play store for Google assistant, I think in the next build the ROM has out of box Google assistant so need for a hack.

So I got the GAPPS installed. Getting a smaller version worked just fine. But I still have an issue with the iSu program.

Essential Dialer APK

I have a bit of a favor for those with root on the stock Essential ROM...
I'm on Lineage OS now, but I forgot to grab the Essential Dialer APK before I switched over. Since that dialer is essentially the Google Dialer, I know it should work fine on Lineage. I'm just hesitant to grab it from APK Mirror because there are so many versions of it that I don't know which would even be compatible.
Thanks for any help! Love this community!!!
Maybe i´m wrong but after you installed Lineage and Gapps open Google Play Store and search for the Google Dialer. Its the same apk and thru Google Play Store you get the right vision, automatically.
it's the stock google dialer. for whatever reason, all the google functions still work on essential. not sure why, because non-google phones if you side load it, the search functions don't work.

It's weird. On Lineage, the Play store doesn't give me the Dialer in any results. So as a result, I tried just sideloading the latest compatible version from APK Mirror and it made my phone go a bit crazy. Perhaps I'll just use the regular Dialer that comes loaded with Lineage. Thanks guys.
On lineage, I installed the stock Google phone app because I wanted spam blocking. The phone app worked fine, I was able to make it the default app, and spam filtering worked... Until I rebooted and got repeat errors that wouldn't let the os load, effectively soft bricking the phone. I had to re install lineage. Just an fyi

When I installed Lineage and did a restore, it automatically downloaded the Google Dialer from the Playstore for me.
The phone apk the comes on essential's stock ROM is Google's dialer apk. When you install any LOS or AOSP based ROM you are getting the EXACT same thing. Lineage likes to use an older version of it, reasons why idk, but if you install Gapps you will get Google dialer out of the box and will be able to update to the latest version. Even the stock launcher, quickstep, is used in most of these ROMS, as well as on essential phone, stock ROM. You didn't miss getting anything installing Gapps does add apks and features that don't come stock on essential's stock ROM, along with whatever features the custom ROM you picked may have added but speaking strictly and specifically about the dialer itself it is exactly the same as Google Dialer APK

You're close... But wrong...
Any "LOS or AOSP" ROM is supposed to ship with the AOSP dialer... Because of its OSS nature...
The Google dialer is the AOSP dialer... But with much proprietary code added...
This should not ship with "any LOS or AOSP" ROM... Though it does... Because people can't read instructions on how to flash on A/B devices...
Anything associated with Google services... Is supposed to come via a GAPPS package...

Closest ROM to stock Oneplus 6t - without Gapps

Hi all!
I recently switched my OnePlus 6T stock rom to LineageOS but the camera is all buggy and it's quite awful to use.
My main idea was to limit the number of Google Apps installed on the phone and that was most of all.
I tried to search the roms available for OnePlus 6t, found a few of them, but they mostly have a tons of other changes that I'm not interested in.
So I'm hoping that you'll recommend me a - well-working on my 6T - ROM without Google Apps and the original Camera app.
Thanks !

Thanks for your reply!
I took a look but I'm not sure. Is it working for non Chinese phone? I found out about ElementalX but I'm not sure the Gapps are installed or not.

Here you go no gapps

I had a similar experience with Lineage. Did not like it at all. My solution was to go back to the factory rom, root, use Titanium to go in and delete all the google stuff I can get away with. Unfortunately I have several apps that will not work without googleplay, or google services. I also downloade app opps app and used it to limit what apps can access and do what. Amazing how many apps want access to contacts, location, phone state, etc without user permission. I still have google on my phone, but it is limited and restricted. I downloaded all my apps through apk mirror, aurora store, and apk updater, never logged into my google account so I look like an anonymous (kinda) user. Maybe something here that might help you get where you want to be.
Thanks for the reply everyone.
I was hoping to find a rom really close to the stock one with just the gapps (and the OnePlus app) removed.
But since it's apparently not available, I noticed the Syberia Rom that might be interesting (OTA, have the Oneplus camera app)... maybe worth a try.

Most of custom ROMs come without gapps, or should. You should search for a ROM Micro-G compatible to be able to get rid of gapps and still use some Google applications.
Pure 'stock' ROM doesn't exist anymore as people rarely agree to use a pure AOSP without additional features. What is the most close to that are the 'Pixel' like ROMs.
