Has anyone received the google play services update with Google Assistant? - Droid Turbo 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Haven't seen anything myself yet.
Got the latest version of services from apk mirror 10.2.99 and nothing changed.

https://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo-2/help/google-assistant-t3566654

yeah, I saw that post, but I don't believe him.
What he stated really doesn't prove he has GA. In fact, he turned off Moto Voice, so with the apk update and a reboot, he probably just configured the normal Google Now. In other words, screenshots are needed

Looks like I just got it today... at least I think it was today. Not like I had any prompt to tell me it was activated. By chance I just happened to hold the home button and it popped up with GA. At long last, I can now control the lights in my house from my bedroom without having to buy another google home!

Thanks for the update, I just checked and have it too.

[Q] Google Now stocks card not showing up anymore

Has anyone else had this issue or know of a fix? I have tried clearing data of Google search and a complete reset of the device and my stocks still do not show up in Google Now.
They showed up last week. Doesn't seem to be a known issue yet...or people just don't care that much about stocks.
Thanks!

Not sure what the deal is either, but I have a similar problem.
The traffic/directions card never shows up for me; well reliably that is. If it knows I am away from 'home' sure it gives me directions via public transit. Meanwhile, when I am actually at home, I NEVER get the "time to work" card to show up no matter what I do. Same when I am at work. It never shows me the "time to home" card. Other places, I think it shows up fine. But my commute to/from work to home NEVER shows up.
If I do a search on Google Maps, cards show up everywhere lol.
A buddy of mine with an Xperia S also has that issue. My girlfriend's iPhone 5 with Google Now, actually works lol wth

Same here! Good to here I'm not alone...
Not showing up for me either. I accidentally managed to swipe it off a while ago but it should definitely have refreshed by now.
I also have a similar problem with the stocks card. My stock card does show up, but it goes away at around 5:30 or 6PM. If I haven't looked before that I'm sol. There used to be a setting in Google Now that would allow you to keep certain cards always shown, but I can no longer find it for the stocks card. I work third shift, and would like to be able to see what the stocks did on my home screen with the Google Now widget when I get to work, but I can't because it is always gone by then and I can't get it back. If anyone knows how to restore this setting, I would very much appreciate it. I have looked EVERYWHERE! Thanks.
The maps update I received today via the play store seemed to bring back my stocks! I am not sure if this is the fix but they are back and come back even when I swipe them away!

Interesting problem after rooting (solved)

I have a Tmobile G2 that I just got a week ago. I played around with it for a couple days before deciding to root it, but finally pulled the trigger. Two days after rooting it a very strange thing happened. In the middle of the evening some of my Google applications stopped syncing. Gmail, Voice, and Contacts stopped. Drive still worked. Hangouts still worked... It was just weird. I clicked around for awhile and hit the interwebs to find the solution or to see if there was some widespread google outage again, but nothing.
I did everything I could think of, and then I finally clicked the option to take the phone back to stock. I know it wasn't going to take away my root, but at this point I wasn't thinking root was the problem. I just thought maybe I installed something that messed up the phone or something. Anyway, I took it back to normal and now the problem was weirder. It wouldn't even let me connect my Google account (or any google account) to the phone. It kept saying there was some sort of server error. I called TMO support and they couldn't figure it out either. They gave me a number to call Google support to let them fix it. They said that this was a 'known issue' and google support would be the one to fix it.
I kind of got nervous that they were going to creep into my phone or something and void my warranty. If my phone was broken and wouldn't connect to Google anymore then I at least wanted to be able to return it to the store and get a new one. I kinda like this device. So I un-rooted it and took it way back to stock. That fixed the problem. I don't know why, but it did. It left SU on the phone, so I'll have to get that off if it has issues again, but for now it is working fine.
Any idea why it would have just suddenly stopped connecting to Google? It connected to Drive just fine and several other apps, but the important ones wouldn't work. Unrooting it did the trick, but that would suck if you have a really great setup built. Oh well... The price you pay for being a hacker I guess.

Google had problems with their servers, many services were unavailable... had most probably nothing to do with you rooting...
You just picked the right time to do that.
Google from time to time have some problems. But not related to rooting.

That's kind of what I thought, but it was miraculously healed when I unrooted it. It could have just been strange timing, but there was nothing on the web about anybody else having this issue. I'll root it again and see what happens. There are some definite advantages to root access that I don't want to lose, but getting my email and texts are pretty important too, so....

I'm talking about this past Saturday morning, though. February 1st. I know about the google issue a week or two ago, but this was only affecting my mobile apps and wasn't the same thing. I was able to access gmail on the computer just fine. I could even access it from the phone's browser fine, but connecting the Google account to the phone was not possible. All I kept getting was 'cannot make a reliable connection to the server' error, so that is why I took the phone back to stock and then all the way back to unrooted. Unrooting it solved it, so I don't think it was just a google server issue which only affected me between the hours of 7:30 on Friday night till Saturday afternoon when I finally gave up and unrooted. It could have been connected, but I doubt it.
Which rooting guide did you follow?

I'm having the same problem. I deleted my account and recreated it. But auto-sync does not work. This has nothing to do with syncing. That works - but I have to sync manually. If I manually sync it from either the app or from the accounts option in settings it works fine. But it won't sync again. I deleted the account, restarted the phone and added the account again. Still doesn't work. If you root it and run into the same problem, please post again. I'll unroot too then.
I know this used to work at some point. I don't know when it stopped working. But it's not been working for days now.

I don't recall. The root part worked fine. I was able to use several of my apps which require root access and they all worked fine for a couple days. It just seems really random that this would all stop working one day.
So here is the timeline.....
Monday 1/27/14 - phone arrives
Wednesday - Rooted
Friday evening - Strange sync issues
Saturday morning - restored to stock while keeping root (did not solve problem and now I cannot connect any google account)
Saturday afternoon - unrooted and restored device (solved problem and google account synced fine after)
That was all in the same week. I've only had the phone since last Monday. It is worth saying that my HTC G2 and my wife's HTC G2 didn't have any issues with google syncing during this time. Totally different products, but I really tried to find anything to link the problem to something systemic and not just a device issue.
I haven't rooted it again just yet. I need to do it before I go too nuts re-installing the apks on my machine anyway. I'll definitely post again if I have problems again, but I really want to believe it was just something left over from whatever bug plagued Google a couple weeks ago.

[Q] Google play store issues, wifi or ISP?

Alright I am sorry if this is a stupid question but I really need help, I live where there is almost no service. We use a Microcell and I basically rely on wifi for updating and downloading apps. My Galaxy s4 was rooted with casual and every time I try to download an app or update it gives me an error number which I have googled. I followed one guys steps which basically sent my phone in a frenzy he said to force stop play store delete cache and data then do the same with google services framework. Then if that didn't work to uninstall updates to playstore which I did. After I attempted this my playstore would keep blacking out and I would get a message that the google play store suddenly stopped. Even after I restarted my phone it did the same thing. This would be on all screens so I couldn't do hardly anything because that popup would keep showing up, even after the restart. So I did a factory reset and lost all my apps which I knew would happen but I didn't know what else to do. After the reset my playstore updated its self but it's still not downloading apps from wifi. If I use data it will though. Could this have to do with my ISP or is it a google play store issue? My other family members who have android phones are having the same issue. Also my ISP is currently having issues with youtube don't know if that could be a clue since both our owned by google. If there is a mod I could do since my phone is rooted to fix this let me know. Sorry for the long question just disheartening to go through all this work and still can't download or update apps from wifi.
Do you have any adblock apps installed?
I do not, and neither does any of my family members. I think it may be some firewall that time warner has put up because playstore, youtube and when I was working on my website with wordpress, it wasn't working either.

Kevo app puked?

I have been using Kevo on my samsung phones going back a couple of models. I got the S7 Edge and it worked fine until yesterday. Door doesn't respond to the phone. The app said it needed to update, but timed out of updates whether on wifi or 4G. The app itself said it was for lollipop- it just stopped working. I uninstalled and then reinstalled, the update button is now gone, it works, and still shows for lollipop. Anyone have similar experience?

I just installed my Kevo on Easter. I didn't have any problems with it at all...until I tried to enable android wear. When I did that, I got an alert that it needed an update. That was an endless process of back and forth, enable and disable it on the app, but finally I got an update button that said keep phone w/in 20 feet while it processed the download. I just sat my phone on the floor and did some other stuff. Came back and I had an all update finished and "tap here to restart kevo app". I did that and tried the lock out with my phone, fab, and keys...all okay. When I tried my watch (moto 360), I got the "no keys" error followed by "unexpectedly stopped" message.
I shot an email off to Kevo/Kwikset about it and yesterday got a reply back. Their support stated they do not support the S7 or S7edge with no eta that they will in the future. I asked why, but haven't received an answer yet. Then I saw on reddit that someone said it was because Kevo only supports Android-L; however, now that more devices are getting updates to M, a lot more people are having trouble. They officially state that Kevo supports the S6...what's going to happen when an S6 updates to M? Wonder if they'll put out an update?
They have been notoriously slow, but my app is working again, despite the OS issue they mentioned. Weird, and it still doesn't work with the GearS2, contrary to all the publicity when the watch was released last year that it was working!

Google Assistant "OK Google" Routines not working (Good Morning, Good night, etc)

Google Assistant "OK Google" Routines not working (Good Morning, Good night, etc)
Google Assistant Routines not working "OK Google" (Good Morning, Good night, etc) Wouldn't work on factory Verizon firmware or U1 unlocked firmware. Works fine on my S8+ here. When you say good morning, it just shows you a page of things you can do. It used to tell me the weather, commute, time, news etc. Routines are setup in settings like usual. Anyone else have this issue? Tried with beta google app and regular. everything is updated. factory reset to be sure i didnt mess anything up with recovering apps and settings from cloud.
can i get some help pretty please?
:fingers-crossed: Can someone please chime in and let me know if this is working for you and if so what carrier? I'd really appreciate it. I use google routines a lot. Just have to say ok google, then good morning or good night. It should talk back telling you weather, Commute, etc. Mine is just showing search results pertaining to good morning and good night. no assistant talking back to me. I hope Samsung didn't do something to push people to Bixby. I have a verizon s10+ and tried firmware that came on it, the update, and fresh odin of U1 firmware. Thanks so much. :highfive:
