voice commands not working - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the Samsung Gear live and everything was working but a few days ago it stopped responding to all voice commands. I did a reset on the phone and still nothing. It connects to my phone just fine, shows notifications ect. Anyone else have this problem?

I have the same problem...anyone can help us?

I called Google yesterday and really confused them because I had already done a reset on the watch plus uninstalled/ re installed (after reboot) the software. I sent it back and I should have my replacement tomorrow. Hopefully I'll remember to post the results once I get the new watch.

:C same here

My new watch is working great and I didn't make any changes to my phone at all so it had to be the watch.

Make sure to clean the back and front clean all with a dry tissue I has this issue too specially when I went for a run the sweat made something that will not allow the mic to work
I did call google and they sent me a new watch but I then cleaned like I said above and it started working
Maybe the mic gets dirty somehow

try wiping your data and reflashing, maybe that will fix it
Instead of starting from scratch, go to the market and download an app called sound manager. Once you're in it hit menu>vibrate settings then chose the setting you want. I have mine set to "vibrate only when silent." works for me
same problem here, I really don't wanna wipe but I'm afraid that is the only fix. My friend has an Incredible that had the same prob and VZW wiped it for her and it worked again....I would rather figure out why it has happened to prevent it from happening again.
The sound manager program worked thanks for everything I chose vibrate whenever possible and it worked. Gotta love the internet and the people in it.I'm knew to android os is there Any recommended apps or games I should get

Oh wow, I had the exact same problem. This problem was obvious to me as soon as I upgraded to OTA 1.47.(insert rest of numbers here) last week. Plus it broke my Microsoft Exchange syncing. That was the day I decided to root my phone as soon as possible since I don't think I can rely on Sprint/HTC to push out a fix or upgrade without breaking something.
Now I'm happily running a rooted EVO with Damage Control 3.2.3.

***EPIC - NEED HELP TXT MESSAGING, BLUETOOTH, QIK for EB13 *PLEASE!

OK I need help and serious input since these are the things I use the most. I will give you a little history also. On 0:00 Tuesday 02/22/2011 I downloaded samsung update for EB13. I flashed the phone, and everything went well even the one-click-root-2.5.5. So with my issues appearing I researched and seen many others had issues not like mine. I called Sprint they had me do a hard reset on my phone. Still the issues are a not real bad but I had having to restart my phone 6 or 7 times a day. I even went to the store and the rep said there were no so called "quote issues with the EPIC cause he has one". I need my phone re-flash. I told him I did that. He said have a hard reset done to it. I did it the day after the I flashed it. I told him I still have issues and no one has been able to help me. He said take the phone back and get a new one then. His name is Mike at the Sprint Store on Oleander Dr Wilmington, NC. Lots of help Mike. Just admit the software is sh*t like the phone reps did on the phone. Re-flashing and a hard reset is something I already did, and removed alot of useless app, from the guide on switch apps to remove. So PLEASE someone come up with some mods or ideas to help me. PLEASE. I got no clue on this.
1. Txt messaging. After an hour of non use when trying to send a txt. The txt hangs. I tried de-activating and a signal refresh. Dont work. Only fix is re-start the phone, and re-send the txt.
2. Bluetooth. After non use for an hr Bluetooth says it is still connected. When calls comes in however it is not connected. I have to manual connect, or if no call, I have to do a signal refresh. Not even turning off bluetooth works. The Sprint rep says it is the only work around they have and know about it.
3. QIK. Ok Qik on 2.1 used do a portrait on the front camera. Now it records only as landscape, but shows as portrait. I spoke to Sprint about this also and they said it some I am going to have to deal with. I drive alot to job to job, so I dont have alot of time to play with settings.
bluetooth problems?
i have flashed the eb13 froyo onto my epic with the eb13 supernova,genocide .3a kernal and everything seems to be almost perfect except i still can not give voice commands over my bluetooth ....it will activate, say speak now and then it will disconnect before i can even give a command...if there is a fix for this please let me know...thanks
Txt messenging found
I found the same issue and a fix for it other than reboot. This was found back in July on another phone and carrier but with Android 2.2 Froyo. So this issue is with the OS its self.
A. Settings menu
B. Applications menu
C. Manage Applications
D. Messaging app
E. Force Close button

Re: Android 2.2 text message problem
Fixed it!!! In case anyone else out there is having the same problem, the way I fixed it was by going to the Settings menu from the home screen, then to the Applications menu, then to Manage Applications, then to the Running tab, then to the Messaging app with the icon that Andriod uses for the text function. Then I clicked on the Force Close button. Now it sends text message with no problem. Go figure.
Back up your data with MyBackup Root, use Odin to restore full, clean EB13, then use the Market or AppBrain to reinstall your apps, and your backup to restore only the data for those specific apps. That will solve almost all problems related to the OTA update, including yours, OP.

But he used the .exe...
I think he mightve removed something by accident...was the "apps safe to remove" thread updated for EB13?

Thanks everyone for replying with some needed input and issues of your own. I do think I can live with the messaging app since I found a temp fix for it(force close). I also believe I can live with Qik recording in landscape, even though it was not designed that way for the front camera. However I cannot live the issue of Bluetooth. I need as I will never put a touch screen phone to my ear or listen to it on speaker, like some of these dumb a$$ doing this walking around in public. I drive from job to job and it is very difficult for me to play with setting while driving. NC is becoming a handsfree cell phone state like so many others, and there is no txting while driving at all. It is a dangerous thing to do. I have read older posts from other phone that received 2.2 much earlier in the year and I believe that is OS is $hit. However 2.1 does not have Bluetooth activated command dialing.
*So for you people that are catching up, I did install from the exe and seemed to work fine and even after I rooted with a clockworkmod 2.5.1 recovery. I even did a hard reset with Sprint. I did not removed any important applications as mobile hotspot is this there. I have not upgraded to any new kernel, or rom. These issues are minor, but a major inconvenience. Bluetooth will work for awhile, but then with a call comes in after a hr of rebooting I have to connect manually after it has been paired. ""Sprint said that this was a issue known in the OS, but I am wondering if anyone has found a kernel or mod to correct this issue?""
Why not back it up and then go into cwm and clear the cache/DCache and then run the .exe without removing ANYTHING and see if your problems persist?
If they don't, then take out an .apk one at a time until you find the one that breaks your functions...

[Q] 4.2.2 update-can't make calls

Hi All,
I'm currently using Straight Talk with ATT SIM. Everything was working fine. I updated the software to 4.2.2 on Sunday. It didn't come OTA so I updated by going to Google Services Framework, clear data, then force stop. After a reboot, the OTA 4.2.2. showed up and I updated then.
Now, I am realizing that I cannot make or receive calls at all. Phone shows signal strength at 100% (4 bars) but when dialing, it does not go through, just silence, then a beep, then ends call.
I have tried rebooting phones, pulling SIM card out and replacing (twice) all with no luck.
HELP!!
Edit: I just realized I don't have internet connection either.

Sorry for the newbie response but how can I find out what radio I am on?
Ah...found it.
Radio: 2.0.1700.48
I was on the same situation a couple days ago. after flashing 4.2.2, I can still make a call, people can still call me, but no sound from either me or them. The micros work fine (you can check by Voice Search).
At that time, after I ended messing everything up, I restocked the phone to 4.2.1. Everything worked fine after then. I dont know why this happens. You may wait for another solution. Just let you know that a restock can fix it, so dont worry. However I dont encounrage it becuase it wipes your phone completly.

Thanks for your reply. Yeah, I would like a solution that doesn't require complete wipe of phone.
So frustrating...been unable to use phone all day. Who knows how many calls I've missed.

In case you have no choice, back up your phone by Titanium backup. That saves everything you have at the moment
Same issue after 4.2.2 update
I'm having the exact same issue with my Nexus 4. Let me elaborate. I've had my Nexus 4 since the initial sale, today I got the OTA update sent via Tmobile. My phone seemed to work fine afterwards until I tried to answer a call. Upon attempting to answer or make a call (even with full service) the bars instantly drop to zero (hollow triangle) and an out-of-area tone & message display.
Restarted, pulled sim, sim worked fine in other phone, checked & rechecked APN/other settings, had Tmobile "reset" my device on network, finally wiped my device. I still can not make or receive phone calls. The radio seems to just disconnect when attempting to.
Spoke with Tmobile customer support (worthless), Tech Care (Very helpful & knowledgeable but no fix), Google Nexus support (Offered to replace device! However can't have any cosmetic damage). LG also contacted but zero assistance given.
I'm stumped, it seems to me that this issue might be related to the update disabling the LTE radio, because data & everything else works except for making calls. Like I said, Google offered to replace the device however I did (in good faith) advise them of a hairline crack on the back of the device, like many other N4 owners have had, not from a drop. Upon hearing of cosmetic damage they said that it's no longer their liability. I'm very disappointed but I understand.
Since the warranty is void from the crack, I'm going to root & play around.
Any questions or advice?

Also, I'm on the same radio (Baseband?) as OP.

I'm curious to see if rooting will solve this issue. If yes, I will go this route.
Keep me posted. So frustrated.
Thanks johnmedic.

Strange N4 Issues

I've had the phone for a few months, only used it for 2 weeks then put it back in the box with plans to resell it. Dad needed a new phone for his job so i decided to give it to him and every day for the past week ive gotten at least one phone call from him with problems. He is extremely new to smart phones but I never had a single issue with this phone prior to giving it to him. For some reason he will receive text messages or voice mail and sees the notification icons up on the notification bar but when he goes to pull the bar down it does nothing. The only way to resolve this issue is to restart the phone then all of a sudden the pull-down starts to function as it should. The phone is completely stock out the box i didn't feel the need to touch anything or have to root it for any reason.
He had to go to AT&T to get a sim card for it and the people there basically wanted to run him out of the store and not even touch the phone because they do not sell it so not a single person wanted to even help him out even though he just dropped more money into their pockets by upgrading his plan to a smart phone plan. before i gave him the phone all i did was a factory reset to wipe out any of my data on the phone so it was clean and like new for him.
Im at a loss because the whole time i used the phone i had no issues and since the day he got it he has had nothing but problems. I chalked this up to user error but its not because when he gave it to me to see if i could figure out why things were acting weird the only thing i could think to do was restart the phone. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this may be happening and/or how to go about fixing it and not making him regret ever having to get a smart phone much less this N4?
New paragraph!
What messaging apps are you using? You could always download the toolkit and flash the stock factory image again.
I would try another factory reset just to make sure things didn't go haywire during the reset you already did. I have had a bad reset with a phone before.

yeah im gonna have to get with my dad and fool with the phone more. Its hard to troubleshoot something when he lives 45mins away and calls me with problems while im at work.
ONCE AGAIN the whole phone is stock so that would lead me to believe that the stock messaging app is being used. I will talk him through doing a reset again and see how that works out for him. From what he told me the only app hes even installed outside of everything that comes on the phone was Map Quest, which i told him he shouldn't need because Google Maps is already loaded on. So first im going to have him uninstall that from the phone as well as from his downloaded apps list in the play store and see if that changes anything.

Returning Axon 7 Due To Mic Shutoff Issue

Yes, loved everything about the phone but mic kept cutting out when talking to others. Happened when Screen went off. Not all the time but enough to make it unreliable. Loved the speakers but need the phone to work like a phone also. Hate to return it but see no solutions. Do not trust exchang it. No bashing the phone but if anyone knows any solutions please post.

Not sure if it's the same.. I'm still on the 1+1. Looking at getting either the Axon 7 or the 1+3. On the 1+1, there's microphone problems when Google Voice is set to always be on for all screens. Turning that off or to just on the Google screen fixes that problem. Google -> Settings -> Voice -> "Ok Google" detection -> turn off From Any Screen.
Hi, please try this:
Go to settings
Go to Backup & reset
Click Network settings reset
Choose reset settings
Confirm reset settings
Then turn off your phone.
Go into recovery mode by pressing Volume Up and Power Button at the same time when phone is off.
Then when you see the ZTE logo, let go of the buttons.
Then choose wipe cache partition
and then confirm wiping cache partition
Then go back and choose reboot phone.
Then let me know if this solves it or if you continue to have the problem.
Thank you both. Will try this tomorrow. This mic problem is the only thing I cannot deal with about this otherwise great phone. Will try to report back sometime tomorrow. Do not remember having this problem before but update.

Reset phone again and uninstalled True Dialer. For now, no mic shutoff. Will try to find a nice dialer that works. If needed, I will try your solutions.

Hey everyone, hope all is well.
I found a fix for my axon. If you don't want to read my trial and errors and just want the fix, scroll to the bottom.
I bought an axon 7 off eBay. From day 1 people were saying they couldn't hear me very well. I thought it was cell service.
It seemed to slowly got worse.
It got to the point where people couldn't hear me at all.
I downloaded an app to locate cell towers and service range. Service didn't seem too bad...
Found forums like this one, tried talking on speakerphone. It worked, but people said it was still hard to hear me, cutting in and out, etc. Turned off mic access for ok Google and eventually EVERYTHING else.
Deleted apps even... No fix.
Eventually went to a place I knew had good cell service, called someone, and they couldn't hear me at all! Def not mic access, def not service...
Axons warranty doesn't work for resold phones... The speakers and Dolby..I didn't want to go back to a Samsung or whatever..
That's when I started looking for hardware fixes.
I decided to do a Google search one last time before starting down that road, but looked at videos this time.
And I found a fix!!!!!!
youtu.be/KNGMM-H0oxc
So simple.
So going back to the forums I read before and posting my fix. Hopefully it helps others.
So happy!
