It doesn't wanna talk, at all. I have set it to always talk, I always run my system language as English US (because I prefer English over Swedish) and I've set the language in Google Now to English US as well, yet it doesn't speak. It just gives me information but it dead silent.
EDIT: Now it works and the solution was to wipe the data of Google Now. (velvet.apk)
Won't help more than likely

Can you listen to music on your device? I had this problem where my device wouldn't play any sort of sounds and i had to install the Rom again,
Try clearing data for the application.

Oh yeah, everything but Google Now works. I mean, Google Now "answers" all my questions but it doesn't read them out like it should.
EDIT: Cleared data of Google Now, set it up again and now it seems to be working. Thanks.

Hi, i've been searching the nexus forum through but haven't found any solution that would work on my tablet.
My problem is this: i bought the UK nexus 7 and am using it in the scandinavia. whenever i try to assign a voice command like "set alarm to 21:30" or "show pictures of cyanogenmod", it just does a google search and shows the results. I can't see any of the cards nor can i use any of the voice commands.
I tried switching the tablet language to english (US and UK) and install all the offline voice recognition libraries. I've also gone through the google now setup and allowed all location information etc.
In another thread it was suggested that i should get a trial of google apps for business and from there switch on the google one for my tablet, but this seems completely ridiculous (and it won't solve the fact that also the voice commands are not working).
Does anyone have a hint on what i should try next to get the commands to work and cards to show?
Works for me when it finally understands me. Settings are English US and it will play tracks, tell me the weather, search apps and set alarms from what I've tried so far.

the problem here is not that it would not understand me. the problem is that it understands completely well the sentence "set alarm at 21:30" but it does a google search of it! whatever command i try from the google voice commands list at google help center, it just does a google search. it does not set alarms, it does not show pictures of androids, it does not show me a weather card. i just get a google search result for "weather in xyz"
i find this puzzling

I'm in the UK, but as long as the device region is set to US (Settings > Language & Input), it works fine. I can say "remind me to drop a coil at 8 O'Clock tomorrow" and I get an alarm set, or "Show me pictures of black cats", and lots of kittehs come up...
You lot not downloaded the UK English pack?
That's strange, if I'm using the french command for "Open Gmail" for example, it does a google search of "open Gmail". I even tried the english sentence, and it does the same thing.
I changed my phone language, tried "Open Gmail", it does a google search and then, says Opening apps and Gmail starts !
I'm using CyanogenMod 10.1 M1
AW: Voice commands and google now cards not working in EU
You have to change the system language too.

I know that, but I don't want. Is it a bug, is there plan to correct this ? Is it a Google issue or is it CM ?

It's not a bug, it was meant like this. Google now needs that you use a us or Canadian English as the system language. I would like that there was one in French though.

Even though 'Language and Input Settings' have something to do with this, you also need to change 'ACCOUNTS AND PRIVACY' settings in Google Now settings. You need to enable 'Google location settings'. If already enabled, try also switching on 'Google Location Reporting' > 'Location Reporting' > it should be 'On for this device'. Hope this helps!
Is it possible to get Google assistant on this ROM?
Sent from my ZTE A2017G using Tapatalk
Enter beta Verdion from Google app and Google play services, wait a while and update these apps than change your System language to english us and go to homescreen, you normally should have the assistant now, change language back
Even easier, just change the language to English US and reboot

I tried that but didn't work for me with my A2017G 7.1.1.
The only thing that I noticed is that the navigation in Google Maps started speaking funny... switching back...

It didn't work? You only have to hold home and the dialog should appear

No, I tried, but holding home just brought up the "good old" google app.
Weird... I dunno. I did like 4 clean installs and so far it worked every time i held home...
No idea. maybe you could try getting the app, dunno
Google had announced this in march it was to be activated first in the US and then followed by the UK and several other countries.
Maybe it'll be 2018 for us.

Well I doubt it detects the country you're in. I'm in Argentina. Last place where you'd think that they would allow assistant. And I have assistant simply by using English US

Did you remember to also wipe data for Google app and Google play services? That should do the trick

No, I didn't wipe the data indeed... I'll try that later, thank you.
It doesn't work on the Chinese A2017. Assistant is installed in the Google app but it's still Google home when the ask Google. I think it's because the home button (my voice) only operates when the system language is Chinese. Unless someone writes a piece of code to fix this then it looks like I'm stuffed.
I come to open the play store and see the damn icon changed.
how the hell did this happen? how do I stop any change by lg or google to mess with effin updates, cause they feel like changing my icons?
I dont want any updates. lets not get into the argument about why, just help me with what Im inquiring about please.
Stay off all network connection. Google changed their playstore icon.

Sorry... Wasnt trying to be sarcastic. Theres no way to block google updates like that because that would interfere will All of the google services on your phone.
@rocketman122
Tbf your OP is quite off-handed. You should be grateful you received any advice.
I read it and thought sod that.
Try and have a nice cheerful day.
go and freeze the google play service etc, but this will also stop google play features and google account stuff. Good luck!
Simply disabling Chrome screwed up my phone, f/c's everywhere.
I'm actually finding not having root to be much more of a pain than I was expecting.
Google Play Services is what made the icon change. As stated above, you can't do anything about that without blocking access to Google Apps.

Hello all!
I am facing a very annoying issue:
For questions like "what's the weather?" Google Assistant/Google Now only shows the result without saying anything.
Similar behaviour when asking "drive me home": navigation starts without any announcement.
On the contrary, Google Assistant speaks/answers normally to phrases such as: "tell me a joke".
I've already tried any solution found on the Internet with no luck (check output, clear data, uninstall google search, etc.).
I'm pretty sure it's not account-related because I'm using the same account on a Nexus 5 without any problem.
anyone in a similar situation ?
Cheers,
Tony

yep. I went through all the settings, and no joy. had to quit, if anyone found something to workaround, would be great
Same here. I have this issue after the September update
+1
When I tell "Go home" to assistant it replies me with going home or similar and opens maps
Happy to hear I'm not alone ... so to speak..
I guess, we must wait for a bugfix, then...
Cheers,

Try to delet voice model in google setting ..voice ...and then again retrain voice model ....that solved problem for me
I'm also having this issue. I've tried installing text to speech data, changed speech output to on... And factory reset. Nothing works. If anyone found a solution, do update here. Not pleased with the phone ?
try deleting user data of google play services and google app
My MI5S is the same.

Done. Nothing new!
I also have the same problem, the assistant is giving audio feedback for a lot of queries and command.
Same here. Thanks for confirming that i am not the only one.
Might be the wrong thread to point it out but "ok google" by voice still gets triggered hence the detection is turned off. Is that normal? Can anyone else confirm this? I personally hate the feature, imagine your mic is always on just to catch those two words all the time. It's not the tin foil hat thing but the resource it uses for this feature ...
Cant reproduce it. I have it disabled on both on Google options and nova launcher

Same issue here but...
You can use the phrase 'tell me about my day' it will announce the weather.

LOL. This is called cheating!
Also I confirm the problem.i tried everything.
Me too
I have that problem too on my OnePlus 3T running AOSPA.
Before I had the same issue when I was running FreedomOS.
I'm pretty sure that the logcat in the following screenshots shows the reason for it.
Unfortunately I can't find anything useful about it using Google...
I also think that this problem occurs only/mostly on Chinese phones, because most of the rare Google results refer to Chinese phones.
Is Google assistant working for you guys? I mean waking it up by saying Ok Google...
I have the latest OTA and latest version of the Google app, and it says that the language is not supported, but I am using English (Us) ...
Any fix?
Probably a bug... you can try to clear the cache of Google app, and if not enough clear all data from Google app (but then you might have to redo some settings).
Same for me here in Italy, with italian language.
Ok Google stopped working 2 days ago.
I've tried every known solutions but nothing works.
Ps I'm on Pie stock.

Just Clear All Data
Now it works again!
It simply started to work again by itself...
Probably Google did something on the server side!
Yup, it started to work again by itself :good:
Edit: voice unlock is now removed. So this was because Google was removing voice unlock
