Hey guys,
So Google claims that Google Assistant won't make it to tablets, but I would love a tablet that I can hang on the wall and just use it with my voice for remainders, shopping lists, etc.
I was just wondering, since Note 8 has a GSM module, would it be possible to maybe port a Note phone (4, 5) ROM to it so Google thinks it's a phone and get the Google Assistant?
Thanks!

Well to be honest nobody will make a port of a rom like that... I assume the CM firmares will work.
I have a ported tab4 SVoice and it does what you specified very well, but I find talking outloud to take memos or do tasks not part of my routine. Though google and amazon have devices like that already.
I am sure someone will back port it to run on tablets... though google and amazon are the least wanted options on my tablet or talk to device.
Guys i have a Note 8.0 GT-N5100 and i am using Google Assistant on it.If anyone wants help let me know

How did you get it working? I've got an Gt-n5120 but the only difference is mine has LTE.
I really want to get Google assistant working on this tablet and would love some advice and guidance.
Thanks
Google assistance worked fine on my note 8 including voice command, but it has stopped working now all suggestion noted and tried but has not fixed this problem.

I just bought the phone and the first thing I did was to download the Google Maps 6.14.4 apk from the Internet. But when I try to install it. I get the message cannot install. I tried unintelligible updates but there is no option as there is in my Nexus 7 2012. I'm guessing that it's because Android 4.3 being a fresh install on the galaxy note 3 as well as Maps version 7. I drive for living and am completely dependent on the maps app. I tried version 7 but it doesn't allow me to use alternative routes in the middle of the journey. There must a way of installing the old version. I don't mind rooting my brand new phone. But I must get the old version installed. Kindly reply with some suggestions.
cant you get the old map for nexus 7 and install it on note3?

If you drive for a living, I'd think you'd use something other than Maps for it. Sure, Google Navigator is okay in most respects but there are certainly better alternatives out there. Waze, CoPilot, TomTom, etc.
If I drive for living surely I would have tried them all.

I don't have a Note 3, so not sure what exactly is the problem you facing installing Maps 6.14.4. I uninstalled the new Maps 7 from my 4.3 Note 2 and was able to install 6.14.4 fine? Were you able to uninstall Maps 7 first from your Note 3?

Maps is a "system" app so you'll need root to do anything about it.

I manage to uninstalling it on my Nexus 7 running Android 4.3. But Note 3 does not give me the option to do it. It's because it's a fresh install of 4.3 and Maps 7.2. You can only only uninstalling if you had a previous version installed. The only options I get are force stop and disable. I tried installing the older apk over the new one but it won't allow it. Thanks for the reply.

True, they're all better
I just realized that note 3 has this problem, even for non stock app, I have to uninstall the current one first then I can install the older version app

lol Waze rocks google maps unless you need street view. There's a reason Google had to buy out Waze...it's got stuff they don't! Waze is infinitely better (from my experience) at determining traffic issues in real time compared to Google Maps.
Google Maps, at least version 6.14.4, is hands-down THE best turn-by-turn direction program out there, even better than stand alone GPS units.
I drive a tractor-trailer (and am smart enough to not completely rely on it's car-based routing if I shouldn't!), and I use it every single day.
It's the single biggest reason I use an Android phone.

I'm sorry; I don't mean to be disrespectful, but you must be on drugs if you think ANY of those navigation apps you mentioned are better than Google Navigation!
I've seen it posted here with link to download the apps and OP claimed it worked with both versions of maps installed at the same time, I think I even downloaded it to my computer for future, but I can't find the post now, sorry. I'm not 100% sure it was Note3 forum but I usually don't read forums for other phones, so try searching, had to be last few weeks.I have not tested it but the guy clearly said here is the link, download it and you can have old map program working along new one. Possibly the link had map version showing as non system apps, or maybe the name was changed. If you can't find it let me know, I look for the app on my computer, but not before the weekend.

Anyone got the Google Dialer to work?
Hello all Grand Prime users out there. I am here to ask a few questions about ok google so lets start.
1. As we know that we cannot start google app by saying ok google from homescreen or lockscreen. (on Stock rom or without any app).
2. I want to know something from you all that how many of u can start google app by saying ok google from any screen. ( I am asking because tommorow when i wrongly said ok google from homescreen a setup came it said add your voice. Now my ok google can only activate if i said ok google not by others.)
3. I want to know if u guys can also do the same like above questions without any app or custom rom then it means now ok google command is available for all of us. If u cannot activate ok google like this then tell me I will help u how to do it.
See the screenshots in attachments.
Give answers soon. Dont forget to mention my name so i will be notified.
First
you can't ask questions in general section
Moving on
Well I can't get Ok Google everywhere. it just work on the Google app but I use assistant enabler xposed module which gives me option to enable ok Google everywhere and it also gets me an option to enable Google assistant
I don't know anything about ok Google, recognizing only one specific person it may be possible that the others person accent is not acceptable for the app or maybe the option really exist
Whatever ,just tell me how do you achieved this

OWEN i uninstalled my google play service and all Now i wanted to used google service ,game and store for coc plaese helpppppp My phone Is SmG531f ......... pppppp
This past week, I've been reading that Google is pushing "Google Assistant" out, to replace the standard "Ok Google", to a bunch of Marshmallow and Nougat phones.
Has anyone received that yet, or know if the Axon 7 is going to get it soon?
Every phone running Android 6.0+ will receive the update but you already knew that. They are running the roll out as we speak but only for English users in US. English users in Australia, Canada and UK and Germany will soon follow. Rest during the course of the year apparently. So if you are in the US you will likely receive it soon or may already have received an update to the app. Hope this clarifies.
I just got the update a few minutes ago! I'm in northern California.

I literally just got it a few minutes ago, Northeast US here. It's extremely quick, I'm impressed.
Yep, you guys prompted me to check mine, and I have it too!
I hate it. I use long press for Google Now to search like a hundred times a day. Now it is the Assistant and I see no way of typing my query. So now I have no way to do a search in one step. Anything I can do to get it back the way it was? Or a way to get a text field into Google Assistant?
yes!.. its working for me.. but..
dont know how it started working?
dont know where it the got the update from?
dont know where to check the update?... can someone pls help me find the answer?
use to use the long home press to check screen search.. disabled it today and thought because i disabled it, the assistant got kicked in.
Happy its working now coz the only reason wanted to get the pixel is for the assistant. this is great!
It seems like Google just doesn't want me to have assistant lol

I can force my phone to set up the Google Assistant, naturally, by removing my account and clearing data from the Google App, Play Services, and Play Store, and then holding the home button > then adding my account. But as soon as I back out of the assistant it goes back to On Tap.
How do you update, is this an upgrade to Google home? Presume this is not available to the Chinese version?

If you have the correct Google app, you already have Assistant. It just wasn't enabled yet. I don't know exactly how it works, but the app sees that you're on Marshmallow or higher in your build.prop and enables it. I currently have a Nexus 6p and before Google decided to enable it for all phones over 6.0, devs figured out that changing a couple of lines in the build.prop tricked the app to think the phone was a Pixel, thus enabling Assistant.

I found those instructions weeks ago but I'm not rooted and there's no option to add languages so I'm screwed. The update also made do not disturb mode turn on 24/7 unless I completely disable it. What a load of BS.

I feel your pain bro. I hate this fact. I'm still using the Pixel launcher which has the search widget for text. I find myself going to the home screen to do my Google searches. It's horrible.

I'm using Nova so I set it up so that pressing home (once home) or swiping up on the drawer icon takes me to search. Yeah it really sucks to have to go to the home screen. That damn assistant sucks. It forgets my voice training after awhile too and I have to do it again.
I have on my G version, I don't know for sure, but I got so fed up waiting, I tried changing my language to US, rebooted the phone and bam! Within 10 seconds I had it. Also I had updated to the latest google play services. I had done this a million times but nothing happened until the language change. Coincidence?

Hello, for some reason on my fully up-to-date galaxy s8, the text input option isn't showing in google assistant. My friend has an s8+ and the keyboard is available on his, but not mine. Anyone have any idea how to fix this problem, it's driving me crazy. Worst case, how do I reinstall assistant? Thank you!

I don't use Google Assistant, but here is the site: https://www.theverge.com/2017/5/17/15648472/google-assistant-keyboard-input-announced-io-2017
It mentions that once you launch it, just hit small keyboard icon. Do you have google keyboard installed? Maybe it is needed?
No I don't have the keyboard and no I'm using SwiftKey, however it works with SwiftKey as my friend's phone works with it.
Thank.
