Replace Launch Phrase With OK Moto Now - Works Better - Moto X General

I retrained my launch phrase to be Ok Moto Now and it works better than OK Google Now, plus it doesn't feel as stupid to say!

Cool - just by training? Or did you change something in the system?

You probably will have many more false positives.

Why, it is the same number of syllables? And Moto is somewhat an unusual word like Google.

This is actually a topic I was going to start on Reddit a few days ago. How "Ok Moto" is so much easier to say, and just makes more sense than the ridiculous phrase they came up with. It's also adding to their brand recognition every time someone sees/hears you use it.

I recall reading here that when someone looked into the code that handles decoding the phrase the original may have been "hello moto". The "OK google now" was clearly a google influence. I have tried various other word combos but none work as well as "ok google now", the code is clearly optimized for it.

I have been testing it for hours now and the OK Moto Now works better for me. YMMV.

ITA and it works better for me. Late at night when I am tired or if I have been drinking, I can't even pronounce Google properly, lol! Moto is so much easier to say and not as stupid sounding.

Been trying this with no success - it's as if it realizes I'm saying something other than "Ok Google Now", says "Sorry didn't catch that". Do I need to clear data?

I dropped the "Now" entirely and so far it seems to work just fine with "OK Moto!". Will run with it until I notice any problems. It complained a bit on the 3rd training attempt, but I finally got it to accept the new phrase.

I did that, too and it is working fine for me. Much easier to say OK Moto. And no big deal to retrain if it gives me false positives.

I found just OK moto was activating it when just saying OK. By changing it to ok moto now it works just like saying OK Google now.

I tried Hello Moto and it wouldn't take it.

For the same number of syllables, I'm surprised nobody has suggested "OK Moto X" yet.

That works, too; it is just that it responds before I even get to say "X". So it is really responding to "OK Moto".

It should say/show that your phrase is incorrect. Given enough times it will set it to whatever you say. Mine would respond to "Ok Moo Cow" but the ambient noise issues and accidental dials when I was doing nothing made me change back.

I've had numerous false activations while driving, and once while it was in my pocket. Oh well, it was worth a shot.

Speech to Text Tips & Tricks

So for the past few weeks I've been using the speech to text, speaking slowly and enunciating every word as much as I can so that it gets it perfectly. But it always messes up. Hmm.
Well, the past few days I've started speaking faster, and I've noticed that it comes out with better accuracy. Even if I speak sometimes really fast, it still gets it perfectly. Anyone else have similar results?
What about some other tips and tricks for using the speech to text?
(One is of course swipe the keyboard left to right to bring up the voice input.)
Also, you can say "period" and "exclamation mark". What else is there?
And how do you do capital letters?
It must be caching your previous STT (speech to text) files, so that could explain why it seems to get better.
another n00b question
this feature requires data services right? from what i've heard your voice is sent to google's servers for processing, is that correct?

If its caching, its for things you've spoken before....not for things you speak for the first time. Thats what caching means. It could also be part of the intelligence code on Google's side.

That was my point, that it's NOT caching. I know what caching is. Re-read the last few replies; your confusion on the "nope" mixed you up badly.
Does anyone know whether Google's voice recognition software does in fact cache things, i.e. you can "train" it into understanding you better over time? I'm asking this because my accent's not exactly standard American, so I haven't made much use of the feature (it does get many of the things I say admirably, though).
you can spell words for it, i'm not sure if you can do spaces or not though, I haven't tried.
How do you get voice search to Navigate to a someone's address? (Home Screen -> Search button)
I said "Navigate to John Doe's Home" and it got it 100% perfectly, but it doesn't actually bring navigate to my contact's address.
What's the trick to making that work?

Someone somewhere said something about it learns as it goes, or it gets better at understanding you. I'd like to know how, as there is no way to tell it if it got things right...
I was trying to tell it 'Post Buzz' and it got it wrong every time, there was no way for it to learn, if I couldn't tell it when it was getting it wrong.

Good, your idiocy is not needed in my thread I tried to explain, but you didn't understand, so sure, good riddance.
Let me check though, cause I'm confused. I thought caching was all about storing and bringing back something that had been used before? If it was the first time he said it, how had it cached that phrase before?

Andy, Your definition is exactly the same as mine. However Paul starts his retort (quoted) with a negative (nope) and tries to back it up by admitting that he said buzz.google.com for the first time and it worked. (absolutely no caching involved in this case so his 'nope' makes no sense and does not disqualify my statement. Hence the nope is pointless/illogical and only serves to demean me , His future posts (quoted below) illuminate his attitude/character quite clearly. ).
If it worked fine the first time and you accepted the translation...great.
Only accepted translations are remembered by the intelligence/caching logic. You can prove this my mumbling a few in-between words of a sentence that was translated correctly in the past... the translation will still be accurate.
Some memorable quotes:

You suggested that his increasing successes were due to caching.
If caching were the (only*) reason for the increasing successes then he would only be seeing increased successes on phrases he has previously spoken.
In fact, he is seeing increasing successes with phrases that he has never spoken before. This is counter-evidence to your theory that caching was the reason for the successes.
Thus, he does not believe your theory is correct. "Nope" may be a brusque way of saying that, but his counterexample does, actually, weigh heavily against your suggestion so a negative response is warranted.
(*) You said "It must be..." which would tend to imply that your suggestion was the only reason behind why things would be improving. His counterexample minimally indicates that it cannot be the "only" reason for improved successes, but if you want to relax your statement to "One reason might be that it caches" then his counterexample doesn't strictly rule out your suggestion, but it means that there have to be other factors coming into play as well which are helping it understand him better on new phrases.
I'm with farbear. The way I see it, you basically said 'It got it right because you've said it before and it remembers' and he said 'Nope, it's the first time I said it' you then got all upset... I really don't get it.

This is what makes S Voice special

So many people/blogs all keep saying its just a copy of Siri or that voice command is useless. But what's new is that this is active all the time. E.g. You can answer a call, snooze alarm etc with just voice and no need to start an app.
AFAIK this is a first. So many things can be done and it will only get better.
Is it really completely handsfree???
Thats what I also thought when samsung described the S-voice.
But then after watching all the videos, I reckon its not completely handsfree.
For example for the lock screen, you need to first press the power button or home button to get the screen on, and then say the command to unlock it.
Correct me if I am wrong.

fair enough. but this is funny because reminds me a bit of apple - and how they said siri will only be on the 4S because the artificial intelligence algorithm requires at least a dual-core processor and what not. next thing you know it gets hacked and runs flawlessly on an iphone 2g
i would say, it's good, that the device has a lock-screen mode too, because when i have it in my pocket, i'm not interrested in starting programs or calls
but the S Voice will be for sure an awesome feature - i hope it will work for all languages fine
and about using it on different devices - i would imagine, that it could end in a developer <-> producer ping-pong same like siri?!

Has anyone tried to change their build prop to mirror GSIII ? and see if it works then, I would but the wife would have fit if I messed with her's
it is a shame it doesn't work anymore on my One X, but I don't blame Samsung for disabling it. I'm about to throw down $700 on this phone so I want it to keep its exclusives as much as possible haha.
Other than that, I would feel bad for all those people that worked together to integrated it only for it to get pirated.

Touchless Controls (Moto X Style)

I read somewhere that the G2 was one of a few phones, aside from the Moto X and the other new Droids, that has the necessary hardware to support the software Motorola uses for the Touchless Controls, the whole "Okay Google Now" thing. Has anyone tried to port this software over to the G2 yet? I bought my mother the Moto X, and have to admit the feature is pretty cool. I would do it myself, except the fact that I don't have a clue how!! So, whose butt do I have to kiss to get this thing to work on the G2? Thanks!!!!
I dunno I kinda felt silly using the Voice Mate and saying Hello Genie.

Yeah, I don't see using the feature all that much in public. But while I'm in my car or at home, would be nice. I do find "Okay Google Now" to be a tongue twister somehow. Try it.

Yea it comes in handy I mean I've used Google Now with voice searching and dictated some texts while driving so yea it would be nice feature but those times are rare since I usually just have music going in car and rarely text or take calls when driving. Still I guess if my phone was always listening for my commands it could be cool to sit it up on a table near me while I'm doing whatever and tell it what to do.

[In Progress] Enabling "OK Google" While Screen if Off [help wanted!]

Friends--
If you're like me, you've found the native 'ok google' prompt to be a much faster / more elegant solution on lollipop than the moto middleman.
We can disable the moto software and enable the google implementation, however we are never given the option for it to work while the screen is off (and unplugged). We know that the hardware is there, so I am assuming that there is a flag somewhere that we need to change.
I'm going to start exploring on my own, but anyone else who can help look / has ideas on where to look, i figured this thread could be a group development project on this.
Looking forward to this!
Anyone have a thought on where to start looking?

After disabling Moto Voice, go to the Google Settings app -> Search & Now -> Voice -> "Ok Google" Detection.
There you can set "Ok Google" to respond then the device is locked.

I look forward to your findings. Being able to use Ok Google from the screen off state -while- unplugged would be nice to have. I'd bet dollar to doughnuts that moto disabled the necessary flag in order to allow their Voice middleware to function properly - without giving it the ability to set it back when Voice is disabled.
I think I've read something somewhere about flag 199? It's likely I'm mistaken though.
Good luck!

The hardware in the Moto X 2014 was designed to work with Motorola's implementation of screen-off voice recognition. Unfortunately the phone came out just a little too early to have the "standard" Google implementation since phones supporting that did not start coming out until ~1 month later.
It's not that easy
The X8 processing core in this device comes with a Natural Language Computing Processor NLCP core built in, which is a proprietary low power implementation. Therefore, the software portion that handles the output from the core is custom made by Motorola, and is not something that you find in the Android source tree, because a low power LCP core like the X8 never existed before. Similarly, the 'Ok Google' implementation is Google's proprietary implementation, part of the Google Suite of Applications, only to be installed as add-ons on devices that are compatible with 'Android Compatibility Definition Document'. The apps provided by Google usually do not undergo any OEM customizations.
To conclude, it's not as easy as enabling/ disabling a flag in the Android source to link to proprietary implementations from different vendors together.
P.S - Google's 'Ok Google' may work from from all the screens including a secure lock screen, but it cannot leverage the low power LCP core. This will impact your battery life !!!

Yeah got it to work yesterday (with the screen off) for about 2 hours. Then it started not to work at all. Went back to Moto native app and its hit and miss with the app. hopefully it get fix cause its pretty annoying that the reason why i got this phone is because of this feature.
Not only the response is slower and unstable but it is limited to a single person..
Native ok google never fails... Its quicker.. And allows my girlfriend to give commands to the phone on the car along with me...

Its the exact same chip. We should be able to have that feature working on ours as well. We'd have a better chance if we reach out to Motorola to make it possible. Just like switching on the ambient display, they should let us chose between google now or moto voice!

Coming Soon: Enable OK Google "Always On" on the Huawei Mate 9

Hey guys, as you might know, the "OK Google" hotword detection is not able to be used when the screen is off. I thought this was odd given the sheer amount of sensors packed in the Mate 9, so I wanted to see if I could find a workaround. And find a workaround I did! Best of all, it does not require root and does not drain any extra battery as it takes advantage of one of Huawei's native EMUI features
I'll post a tutorial on the XDA Portal so keep a look out for it!

Sometime this week, depending on when news is slow. Probably won't be tomorrow, though.
Ahh... Anyway I can persuade you to explain it to me via personal message? ?

Can you please post it now. I don't really get the point of waiting. News around here is very slow already as it is

Hey guys, as you might know, the "OK Google" hotword detection is not able to be used when the screen is off. I thought this was odd given the sheer amount of sensors packed in the Mate 9, so I wanted to see if I could find a workaround. And find a workaround I did! Best of all, it does not require root and does not drain any extra battery as it takes advantage of one of Huawei's native EMUI features
I'll post a tutorial on the XDA Portal so keep a look out for it!
