Have you set the english language and and set google now on?

Search for something like "Whats the weather like today" using the search bar. When the results come up in the bottom right corner there is 3 dots. click that and then settings. Then at the top you should see "turn google now on" one its on, go to voice and change language to "English US" only works on this for the "Ok Google" feature.

Thanks guys....mystery solved! That's cool!

OK Google!

Whenever I swipe up from the home button to open Google now should I be able to just say "OK Google" to activate voice commands?
I ask because that's how it works on my nexus 7 (2012) running 4.3. Is it just a setting I have turned off or is that for nexus devices only?
BTW I don't mean the always listening of the moto x.
Thanks

Works for me. In Google Now, go into settings and change language to English (US). Hot word should now be available.

The old version had "Google" as the hotword, but they changed it to "Ok Google" to get less false positives in an update.

Thanks.. updated google search to latest and now its "Ok Google".

[Q] Always listening?

Hi,
I've tried Open Mic+ for this and it just isn't working for me
Anyone know how i can get the always listening feature? Don't really care about the impact on battery life
Thanks

I doubt anything will work that way when your phone is in standby .....that probably requires a hardware bit added that the x has, but not the g.
I could be wrong.

There are some people on here that have it working by the looks of it but i can't seem to figure it out

For official listening "Ok Google" you install the official Google Experience Launcher, then you hold down your homescreen (not on a widget) then go press "Settings". Now you are on Google Now settings, click "Voice", then change the language to English (US). So now you will see the "Hotword Detection" setting show up. Tick the check box. Now its Works!
Enjoy,
Press Thanks if i have Helped.

[Q] Ok google command not working in nexus 5

Hey, whenever i say ok google from my homescreen nothing happens.
Language is set to english us and hotword detection is on but still it doesnt work ( tried restarting the device also )
Mic is filled and white .
Any help ?

It didnt work work for me either, I had to change the whole system language to English(US), not just Google Now.

Change to English UK and give it a try? Works fine for me

Try "Ok Google Now", recently mine and other devices in my household changed and it will not recognize it unless we use that phrase.

did you try the phrase "ok google now"?

Go to Settings/ Apps/ then slide to the All Tab and search for " Google Search app" open it and clear its data. It will set your launcher to default setup and then check to see if it works.

Does the search bar mention "Ok Google"? Or is it empty?

yes,say "ok google" is mention in bar and mic is white

@FourPointedFreak and I were wondering if you have tried saying "OK Google Now".

That's very strange. What's your phone setup? rom, kernel, rooted, etc

Stock rom , non rooted
I was thinking if there is any app that i hv installed might be conflicting with hotword detection
This sucks btw

He apparently can't read what we're requesting lol
I am pretty sure using the correct phrase will help. It listens for the "oh" sound in Ok and the "ow" of Now.

@FourPointedFreak
"OK Google now" also not working , I also tried that

Mine works with anything close to 'OK Google'. You can say 'OK Noodle', 'Ok Poodle', heck, you can even just make the G sound after OK and it works.

Lol mine is giving me headache,and i look dumb on keep saying ok Google in front of my family and den nothing happens

You do have Google Now enabled, right? If there is no "Say Ok Google" on the search bar then you won't get an answer.

Google now is enabled

Just format and restore to stock ROM. Easiest and simplest solution to all known problems.?

Google assistant

Will the google Assistant work on the honor magic2?

I got the phone right now, seems like the app itself works but I can't enable "Access with Voice Match" to say "OK Google" from any screen, not sure why.
Although I can still say "OK Google" on the app itself.

I believe for that you need a different launcher which at this point isn't possible unfortunately.

Please if anybody got any success with enabling the "Access with Voice Match" for Google Assistant, let us know.
Cause I was using Google Assistant alot with my previous phone(while driving etc.) and now I have to press it each time.
