Anyone having issues with the Google app? At 1st when I got the phone with stock app versions, "Hey Google" was working fine. But since I updated the app... (Regular & Beta versions) the only way to make it work is by pressing the microphone icon. (thru widget or app itself) But it never works via voice command (by saying Ok Google/Hey Google) Any ideas? It simply doesn't work. (Using Stock Launcher/ Nova Launcher/ Any Launcher & cleared app cache/data) Thanks.
Solution
Works fine for me, using lawnchair v2 though I doubt that makes a difference. Maybe retrain voice?
Works fine for me on stock launcher. Just tried it and woke up every Google device in the living room including my OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren and Google Home Hub. I'd say retrain your voice to it.
I'm actually having the same issue and idk why either lol, worked fine out of the box and then I updated and it no longer works lol
I had to delete and retrain my voice recognition profile before "hey google" kicked in again.
Reboot device and force close google with clear data and retrain google voice pet ? working fine
Found a solution...
Settings > Security & lock screen > Smart Lock > Voice Match > and enable "Access with Voice Match"
Finally Ok Google / Hey Google working 100%
Finally!

With all of the settings correctly configured and several Google voice training programmings later, I am only getting about a 25% detection rate when saying "Ok Google" - especially when the phone is off or on the lock screen.
Anybody else have this issue?
For me OK, Google and the S Voice stopped working after an hour and never worked since then.

Wow, really?
I'm very curious to see how others are fairing with this
Well, what is funny is that S Voice woke my phone a few times while I was playing games on my computer and once when I was watching a movie. I turned it off, something must be wrong with my voice pattern or something. :laugh: I never intended to use it anyway - was just playing with it - so it's not a huge loss for me. I think I might have blocked too many apps or I need to reboot or something because my fingerprint sensor also does strange things.
I just discovered Nova Launcher is causing this problem. When using TouchWiz home it works perfectly.
Anybody know how to get in contact with Nova Launcher?
Dissable svoice then go into google search app info and clear info. Now when you go into google now voice settings you can set it up with google recognition. It won't work when the screen off buy at least it works the rest of the time.

I already have S Voice disabled, but I'm a little confused about what this would solve?
using hot boots causes this problem too. I had some problems with nova launcher but now it works just fine.
try to reboot and check you google now settings+ you can turn it on or off in nova's settings
I'm on 7.1.1 and tried to turn on "always on voice",so it would work even with the screen off, but the option keeps turning itself back off. Any one else have this problem? It worked before. I dont know if its just broken or if there is a setting that I need to change somewhere.
I tried turning on Trusted Voice too with no luck
Same for me
I am having the same issue. Close to doing a full reset of phone to see if that works.
same here. i did a reboot a couple times, and then before it could turn itself off, i retrained my voice model. that's been able to fix it a couple times, but other than that, idk. maybe try clearing the cache/app data.
does clearing the google app data clear the data just from my phone, or from my google account too? i wouldn't want to accidentally wipe stuff from my google account when i only want to reset the app.
"okay google" detection gets fix, once you revert to google now and train the voice model and again revert to the google assistant.
Heres exactly what i did.
1. Enolled in the google app beta (you do this by going in to the playstore, browsing to the google app screen, scrolling down and select i'm in for beta esting)
2. Added the "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" line to the build.prop
-changed product model to Pixel XlL
3.cleared the app data of the google app. Go to settings >apps >google app > manage storage > clear all data and click ok.
4.rebooted and waited a few minutes.
Presssand hold the home button the google assistant comes up, but the train voice screen continiously comes up when you say "okay google" so..
5. Go the build.prop again
-delete the "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" line
-renamed the product model to what ever it was before
Save and reboot.
6. Once it reboots you should have google now again, go to settings of the google app, go in to "okay google detection" tap always on and train your voice model.
7. Go in to build.prop again add "ro.opa.eligible_device=true" line
Change the product model to Pixel XL.
Save and reboot
DONE ! (Once you reboot, i would suggest waiting 5 minutes so itagain recognises the build prop changes) it should now trigger the assistant when you say okay google.
I am using nexus 6 with stock rom rooted btw.
What I tried, although it may not work for everyone and I have only just completed the following steps so I am not too sure if this will 'stick'
From the setting menu I noticed at the very top a suggestion to train my voice (I think the beta update to 7.1.1 deleted my trained voice), so in my case when I was trying to set my OK Google to always on it was switching off because my 'trained voice ' was not present.
I have just tried deleting and retraining my voice with the 'OK Google' buzzword and it worked
Hopefully this may be the case for most here
As soon as you toggle "always on" quickly select "retrain voice". Then it will stay on.
Ok so I posted this in another thread. I made a zip file that works on both of my phones. It's worked for a few other and a few people it has not worked for, I don't know if it has something to do with the GAaaps they are on, but if anyone would like to give it a try here is the link. http://www.mediafire.com/file/d58899gjk3w3zbx/HotwordEnrollment.zip Be sure to with the DATA from the OK Google Enrollment you may want to wipe the DATA from the Google App also, reboot then flash with TWRP.
Just retrain your voice model and should work again!

Hey.
I get the Nova since a few weeks now and can't use the "OK Google" phrase to activate the vocal search command. When I try to set it by learning assistant in Google app > Voice > OK Google anywhere (something like that), it says my mic is unavailable. I join a screen capture.
Thanks for your help.
same problem
I can confirm that I have the same issue on my phone. CAN-L11C432B100

I too have the same issue, i find it very frustrating. I think the Hivoice app ( hided ) is blocking the Ok google detection. Hope an update will fix that, maybe with android nougat.
Software glitch

Hi...i was curious about that google thing....When i first got my device,stil original android 6/emui 4.1 with no updates (only via google play),
i deactivated the google app...So decided to re activate it for curiosity and why not try to use it a bit hehehe...
I did not see/get any error or force close...or what so ever about the app.Everything is running well (for now) and when the app aske me to test the ''google ok'' thing,it has recognised my voice and is also working...no error from Mic or HiVoice ect...
cheers
I had a similar issue that ok google would not work so For weeks I tried everything and eventually I found a solution to my problem. Hopefully works for you guys too.
Settings> apps > default app settings > assistant & voice input > assist app > google app
Good luck. Let. E know how u get on.
Cheers
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
Has anyone managed to get Assistant to work? I'm in the UK. I read on one of the OnePlus community forums that you need to change device language to English (USA), which I've done. Still no Assisstant. Anyone managed to get it to work/have any ideas?
It is only google now, not google assistant
I needed to clear all data after changing language to English (USA). But I've got it working now.
Here's YouTube video showing steps to setup Google Assistant on OP5. https://youtu.be/-bE8ORPID3U

After you got it working, did you have any issues in retraining your voice. I have a problem where it appears to be listening for me to say Ok Google 3 times but never recognises anything.?

i changed to English US, got google assistant started up, then changed the language back to English UK.
google does have issues properly understanding you with the wrong accent from my experience.
I am pretty sure I have google assistant

Doesn't work for me either. I have set the language to English USA. Tried to clear Google app cache and data to no avail.

I got Google Assistant working by following the instructions from the YouTube video in this thread's post #4. All was fine for a while and then GA no longer worked sometime after I applied one of the OTA's. I can't say that was the cause but the timing was coincidental. GA seemed to react but not fully engage. I tried a lot of things including re-training the "OK Google" but nothing worked.
Finally I followed the part of post #4's cache clearing of Google and Google services apps cache (remember there is more than one cache) and then went through the Google Assistant set up as if it had never been working. That fixed my issues and has been working ever since. I'll see if the same problems arise after the next OTA. So I'd trying clearing the cache of those two apps EXACTLY as shown in the video.
Edit: I've applied OTA for v4.5.5 and have not had any Google Assistant issue

You have to clear the data cache for play services as well.
For those that got Google Assistant working are you having any issues such as those described below?
Trusted voice which enables Google Assistant from the lock screen does not work despite the proper settings in place
Creating a Google Assistant shortcut not works
IFTTT doesn't seem to work as advertised (I'm still working on this one)
I've had no end of small issues trying to customize Google Assistant but the main built in functions (e.g. weather, search, Spotify commands, open app) work perfectly.
Just curious about other people's experience. It leaves me feeling Google Assistant is just a beta program/work-in-progress on a phone or a tease to get you to buy a Google Home despite always having a much more capable device in the palm of your hand (your phone). I don't want an ugly Google Home "air freshener" when I already have an Android SD835/8GB phone.
When you say Google Assistant... Do you mean ok Google from screen off?

Google Assistant works with the screen off as long as the OP5 is NOT locked. Working while locked is supposed to work only when Trusted Voice is turned on. Unfortunately I have turned on trusted voice but Google Assistant will not initiate (work) when the OP5 is locked.
OK Google has a different interactive screen than Google Assistant. The OP5 OOS comes with OK Google but you need to manually activate Google Assistant before experiencing its advanced AI features. You would also see new Google Assistant specific settings at the top of the Google app->Settings->Google Assistant->(Settings, What can you do?).
One of the early posts in this thread has the link to manually activate Google Assistant.
Yeah, I have Google Assistant but I am pretty let down by the fact it doesn't work with the screen off and locked. I have heard it's a license that has to be paid to googs
Mine worked with no fuss. What doesn't work is the trusted voice and waking the phone up when the screen is off. That one I can't figure out

I've found a hacky workaround for this issue by using a combination of apps. First off I only use this method when I'm connected to the charger which is no different than the Trusted Voice limitations. Second my lock screen is only enabled when I'm not on a charger.
Use the Caffeine app to block the automatic lock screen. Check settings "Autoactive on USB", "Autoactive on USB type/AC charger", "Enable caffeine at boot".
Buy and install the app Screen Off (No Lock). I couldn't find a free app that turned off the screen but did not also lock it.
Then use the Google Assistant command "OK Google open screen off" to invoke turning the screen off but still having Google Assistant listening for my next command. I also use Tasker and it's Voice Assist plugin connection to Google Assistant so added the "start Screen off" as the last task in my Voice Assist profiles.

For the most part Google Assistant works for me but important features either lack reliability or don't work at all.
Google Assistant macros don't work at all despite built in GA commands working (e.g. play on Spotify)
I can't seem to make a IFTTT connection work
The connection between GA and Tasker's VoiceAssist is unreliable. Too often GA intercepts a regular Tasker Event phrase and displays a google search screen but the Tasker event for the phrase does not trigger. This despite the Tasker VoiceAssist toast displaying the correct event phrase. I'll try it a second time and this time it'll work despite GA recognizing the exact same phrase (not a variation).
I've been able to create some cool home theater (Harmony Hub) automation profiles but the unreliability has me wondering if I'm wasting my time. I really like the whole Google Assistant and the Tasker extension but am not prepared to continue developing things unless I can increase the overall stability.
It may just be my OP5 which is running OOS 4.5.5, rooted with SuperSU with Viper4Android installed. Other than that I've not altered the stock OOS experience. I've not even removed any bloat ware.
Does anyone have the Google Assistant macros and/or IFTTT working on their OnePlus 5?
I've previously posted that Google Assistant's macros didn't work for me but I received an update to the Google app v7.7.14.21.arm64 (Beta) and Google Assistant's macros are suddenly working. Even macros I'd previous entered but had never worked. I also added new ones and they also worked.
What stopped working was Tasker receiving the OK Google spoken commands, (no VoiceAssist toasts). I need to explore further as the newly functioning macros may be a far better way to integrate with Tasker. I'll likely retry the recommended Google Assistant/IFTTT/Tasker integration which also didn't work prior to this latest update.
It's working perfectly
Just did as it was said on the video. Everything works perfectly, including the "OK Google" detection while the screen is off. No problems whatsoever.
To Note: Even i changed the language back to English(UK) after all was setup, and works like a charm. :good:
