Moto voice - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys
I like the moto voice trick but I find google app voice commands to be more responsive and especiallly working better offline I mean for exemple I wasn't able to set alarm offline in moto app while I could in google app
But "Ok google" won't work while the screen is locked so is there anyway to make it work while device is locked or to make moto app work better offline?? Thx in advance

the option is built into settinga to make google now work at the lock screen. If you meant screen off, googling for ok google screen off and installing the first result (the app) gets you there

[Q] Option to do "Okay, Google" when screen is locked? Not use S-Voice?

I know you can with the Moto X is there not a way to get that feature on other devices?
You should be able to configure something to use Google Now which will use the Ok Google as part of the updated search functions.

Anyone found a way to use OK Google instead of moto voice?

Really don't like moto voice, any way to use Google Now in lieu of it? Root of otherwise? It's l literally the only thing that I want to return the pure for the 6p.
Don't you just turn off the voice assistant in the Moto app?
Isn't it literally the same thing though?? Moto voice uses Google search and I'm sure any ok Google command works with moto voice...just customize your launch phrase to "ok Google" and you should be fine...

That doesn't make it work with the screen off.

Most of the commands are just handed off to Google any way, so it's much slower than just Google from the get go. I have the Pure and the 6P and the 6p is way faster with voice commands.

Google instead of Moto Voice?

Long story short, I've been trying to use Tasker to launch the Google Voice Search overlay whenever Moto Voice is activated. It works relatively well, though it doesn't work when Moto Voice is launched while the screen is off. Moto Voice launches but Google Voice Search never overrides it.
I would use the built in feature from the Google App but it doesn't work while the screen is off like Moto Voice does.
I recall there being an xposed module called "okgooglenowtriggerintent" that would help with this on the Moto x 2013. Does anyone know if it still works or if there's an alternative to it?
Thanks in advance!

Google Assistant

Has anyone received the Google Assistant update yet? It was suppose to role out yesterday. Just wondering since the default for this phone is Moto assistant if we will get it or not.
Love the Nougat update

I installed the "Play Services Info" app by weberdo and used it to download Google Play Services version 10.2.99 (440-148249840) from APK Mirror. After a couple of reboots and disabling Moto Voice, Google Assistant became active. I had to touch the microphone icon, and after a couple of tries, it went into "configure" mode and learned my voice. Now working fine.

Didn't work for me. Oh well, I guess I'll just have to wait.

Interestingly, for me, even while running on play services 10.2.98, I had all the assistant settings in the google app, and even paired it with my smartthings account, but alas, voice search is still going to the old style search. Updated to 10.2.99 and still seeing the same behavior. I didn't even know we were getting assistant, and was quite excited when I saw the settings, so when it didn't work, of course I got unreasonably upset. oh well

Alright, I let it sit for a couple hours, and it's working now. Though, still can't launch it from the microphone button in the google app or the google search bars on the home screens. That still launches the old voice search. Have to long touch the home button or use the "ok google" launch phrase. It's a shame it can't use the always-on mic from moto voice though.
I'm seeing some similar things. Google Assistant came down to my phone automatically. Set up the OK Google voice command. Seems to work fine when launching from the mic button on the assistant, but will not respond to always on mic when the phone is idle.
You do have to disable Moto Voice, or change the voice phrase to something other than OK Google. Phone still responds to Moto Voice command on idle, but not OK Google.
Yea, so unless there's a software update for Moto Voice, we're likely not going to get the always-on mic to work with assistant. There's a dedicated processor on the SoC that handles the always-on mic, and it's tied directly to Moto Voice. Moto voice really doesn't do a whole lot other than listen for the launch phrase. Everything after that point is basically handed off to Google Voice search. It really should be quite a easy fix (pass the requests onto assistant instead of voice search), but I doubt that will happen.

I woke up this morning and I finally got the assistant. just an FYI
I got it too. However, while it unlocks the phone when locked and the screen being on, it will not wake the phone when saying ok google. You hear the sound prompt that it heard you, but nothing ever follows up and the screen stays black

Moto voice + google assistant

Have You got any ideas, how to force phone to use GA commands, instead of google app voice commands? The only way to use it I know, is to say "open assistant" and then use final verb. But awakening twice every time?
Hey man
I installed automagic and configured a flow that launches google assistant when the google search application runs
The flow has some conditions, so that google assistant doesn't run when I'm manually searching in google
Unfortunately it is not perfect, because it doesn't automatically run google assistant with the screen off, you have to say the command "open assistant" to launch it, but if it works in any other situation
I'm looking for some way to modify the moto voice apk to change google now to google assistant by default, but I don't know enough about programming, so it's still a long way off
If you have any news about it, I would appreciate it if you let me know
