Please see attached image.
If you see the mic icon, its different from what everyone is getting. Because of that I cant say "Okay Google" and have the mic start listening. If I tap on the mic, it turns on.
Has anyone experienced this before?
Any help would be grateful.
Thanks
Edit: image attached
Nevermind.... I got it to work again.
I went to Language & Input ->Voice Search -> Speech Output-> choose Only when hands-free
Nope... same thing for me.
And this didn't fix it.
It funcion only in English (US)...
Doesn't functiont in italiano either..
Doesn't work for me either. I switch to English US and turned on the Only when hands free setting, but still no dice.

Hi all, I have been having a problem with the voice guidance since the update to Maps 6.8.0. I am on Android 2.3.4 on the latest baseband. In the past, voice guidance was fine, even when playing music. When my music was playing, the song would lower, but not stop, and the navigation direction would clearly sound over the song, then the song would be back to normal volume. Now, when the direction guidance is supposed to turn on, the song lowers, but no voice guidance. I also get no voice guidance with music off. I get no guidance with and without the headphone jack plugged into my car system. I understand that navigation volume and media volume are now linked, but media volume is turned all the way up, and still no voice guidance.
When I go to check the Pico TTS settings, I click on Listen to an Example and get the sample voice and when I go to Google Translate, I also get a voice.
Anybody else have this problem or have an idea how to fix?
Thanks

Did you try reinstalling it.
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
Yeah, either select install it in settings or just search it at play store.

I had the same problem. Only it stops working again after a while.
Navigation for the G2x? Didnt no that was possible lol. 9 times outa 10 i need to use my garmin because the gps is so terrible on this thing. Which is sad because the G1 and mytouch slide i had before this could use navigation no problem, cant wait for a decent qwerty to come out again.
I can't seem to shake this issue despite trying a few different ROMs, though I didn't have this on stock, so I'm hoping someone can venture a guess as to what the source of the problem is. I haven't found any solutions through exhaustive searching, and I don't even see anyone with a similar problem.
Whenever the headset is plugged in, I get music and video files playing through the headset just fine, but as soon as I press the Google Search button (to go to Google Search, with the option for voice search and all) whatever sound was playing goes straight out the speaker until I close it or actually complete a search, sending to the browser. I've had this happen a few times in public, loudly disrupting everyone around me.
I'm using CM 11, 0224 nightly
I've disabled voice playback on the search app, but to no avail.
Does anyone have any idea how to correct this?
(Oh, and if someone can inform me how I can get my ringtone to go through my headset instead of speakers, or if I can't, which ROM can let me do that, that would be super great)
Just wrote a very simple app called BT GNow, which activates Google Now rather than the default Android Voice Dialer when you hit the hands-free button on your Bluetooth headset. Surprisingly, I can't seem to find another app that accomplishes this simple function. Bluetooth Launch does this to an extent, but the UI is difficult, it requires some configuration, it seems to me to cause wakelock problems, and the instance of Google Now that it starts takes off where Google Now left off (so you are often brought to an old search rather than an opportunity to speak a new voice command).
BT GNow keeps only a limited wakelock, requires no configuration (other than configuring Google Now to accept input from your Bluetooth device and possibly disabling the native Voice Dialer), and starts a fresh instance of Google Now each time.
Here's the Play Store link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vibaroo.btnow
And the (minimal) website that describes the setup: https://sites.google.com/site/btgoognow/home
Great will try tomorrow
I will try now, great APP man:good:
Fail, my bluetooth now is not working, i tried, factory reset, re-flash system but not working more
Wow, great app. Makes my bluetooth headset and Google Now work as I always expected it would have to begin with.
I noticed that there was a problem with the screen locking and not responding to touches if lockscreen security is enabled and Google Now is interrupted. Solved this problem with the latest version and also improved wakelock control by sticking an icon in the corner of the screen. The icon disappears when the screen is turned off, and the phone is kept awake only as long as the icon is present.
Got rid of the icon that people seemed to dislike (made it invisible).
Donations?
New Feature
Some have reported problems with BT GNow not effectively bypassing the lockscreen. To address this, I've added an option that requires you to say "OK Google" after pressing your handsfree button; this in effect lets Google Now handle the lockscreen itself. You can activate this option by clicking on the app in the launcher and choosing the "OK Google" option.
Note that if you choose this option, you have to make sure that "OK Google" detection is set to work "From any screen": Google Now > Settings > Voice > 'OK Google' Detection > From any screen (checked or set to "on").
Is there a way to use this with non-BT headphones? I have the 3 button control on my headphones and would love to be able to use this app to bypass the voice dialer.

I'm not sure. Embarrassing to admit that I don't have a wired headset to try it with. At least one user has reported that it does work with wired headsets, though. Have you tried it?

I tried using both of the options but both seem to lead to the voice dialer unfortunately.

I did follow the instructions up to the Voice Dialer point due to not being able to find the Voice Dialer app in the "All" section. I don't know whether I'm blind or lollipop merged it into another application.

Hmm. You're right. Since upgrading to Lollipop I don't see it on my phone either. I'll see if I can get a hold of a wired headset to try to troubleshoot it.
You should go Bluetooth!

Don't go out and get one just to fix my problem! I just don't use my phone for music enough to justify investing in a bluetooth, haha. Thanks for looking into it.
:thumbup:
Thanks!
Amazing! I'm currently using your app to simulate the MotoX experience on a Nexus 5 (pressing just the button on a Moto Hint to query the Nexus 5). I'm still having a problem with the sound from the headset seeminly not being routed through to the phone after I say "Ok Google" (even though I've got the option enabled within Google Now's settings), but I'll keep working at it.

I've noticed that problem if you have more than one bluetooth device connected at once - for instance, if your phone is connected to your car's bluetooth or a stereo headset while connected to your Moto Hint. I'm considering options to try to fix this. In the meantime, perhaps it's better not to use the "OK Google" option and just launch directly from the bluetooth button?
My friend has same thing on his iPhone. I can now use google now with handsfree, when i driving my car. Thanks! The Coolest app on my week!
Wishlist ....
Given the code you have already written here is a little wish from me ... could you implement that the HFP bluetooth headsets just do not launch any application - just volume up and down.
xperia Z, TWIINS bluetooth headset for motorcylce, mono Bluetooth to route Navi output to headset - whenever I press volume down I get the stupid voicedialer or -if disabled- a black screen. I do not want to make any phoncalls on a fast bike!
Thanks in advance.

Hello everyone. It's a couple of days I have facing this weird issue: when I make a phone call on the other side they can't hear me properly, it's not a matter of volume but of quality and the conversation results very difficult, instead, if I turn on the loudspeaker they can hear me. If I come back to the speakerphone sometime they can hear me, sometime not.
So I tought it's an hardware issue and I tried to record my voice with an audiorecorer app forcing it to use the principal microphone and it never fails.
Now that the hardware issue it's excluded I started thinking about a software issue or maybe some conflicts between apps.
At the end it turns out it was the "Ok google" detection to enter in conflict with the main microphone and deactivating it solved the issue.
Now, because I use it a lot but, at the same time, a phone is intended to make phone calls, is there anyone facing the same issue? Did someone find a workaround to make them both working?
P.s.: I'm on latest slimLP, AK 131 and latest firmware from CM12.
facing the same problem
I have the same issue with the call quality. I'm on roaming for the past 2 days. This problem started when I received a call using the headset connected. Now even when the headset is not present, the person on the other end keeps complaining about the voice vibrating. Putting on speaker fixes it but going back to the regular earpiece brings the problem back. Another thing I noticed is during the call the volume rocker doesn't have any control over the volume. The sliders goes up and down but the volume is unaffected. I have tried rebooting the phone and clearing cache many times now. Waiting for someone with a solution.
I'm on stock CM11S rooted with xposed installed.
Facing the same issue
This issue has cropped up all of a sudden recently for me too. The people on the other side of the call say they cant hear me. Occasionally some calls go through just fine though. Tested mic with recording software and it records voice just fine! I'm on the latest Sabermod with AK Kernel.
Uninstall any call recording app and try again.

I have the same problem from time to time. CM12 nightlies. Very annoying. Sometimes it is OK sometimes not.

When I first noticed it I had no call recording app installed neither I have now. It was fixed disabling "ok google" detection.
Thanks for the tip. I just disabled 'OK Google' detection in 'any screens'. Let us see whether it fixes the problem.
I tried uninstalling the hangouts dialer and then reinstalling it. So far it looks fine. Will update if i get the problem again.

So you left ON the "ok google" on the app? What about phone calls? Do they seem fine?
Yes I left OK Google in the Google app. I only disabled it for every screen. It seems to work OK. Hope I'm clear (I' m French)

I'm Italian so we are on the same boat!
Ok so now I'll try activating it too for the app only, let's see how it goes.
P.s.: Tried to make a phone call and it works flawlessly. I hope CM fixes this bug soon!
Awesome, got this problem out of the blue, and disabling Google voice everywhere fixed it. Thanks!
After two day of testing this modification issue of the same bug one the LG G2 works perfectly in all situation during call ( headset, voicecall etc.. ) and doesn't decrease quality on other apps like camera, skype etc..
in Cm12 build.prop replace this two line :
ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=fluence
persist.audio.fluence.voicecall=true
With this:
ro.qc.sdk.audio.ssr=false
ro.qc.sdk.audio.fluencetype=fluence
persist.audio.fluence.mode=endfire
persist.audio.handset.mic=digital
persist.audio.voicecall.mic=0
persist.audio.voice.clarity=none
persist.audio.aanc.enable=false
persist.audio.handset_rx_type=DEFAULT
persist.audio.nsenabled=ON
persist.speaker.prot.enable=false
persist.audio.spkcall_2mic=OFF

Hi there!
I'm using OPO with CM 12.1-20151016-NIGHTLY-bacon, and there is problem that haunted me for since I got the phone ( 5 months ago).
During a call if I activate the speaker mode, the other side hears me dimmed and muffled, and it's keeping that way even after I turn off the speaker mode, it's only get better again after I hang up and call again.
I would like to know if there is any solution to that specific problem?
I've already googled it, and didn't find some1 that connect the problem with speaker mode like me.
So please help me,
Sincerely, DarkIDevil
(Sorry for the bad ENG)
Some1 Plz ?
Please some1?
Try these one by one:
1. Turn off "Ok Google" recognition.
2. This thread helped me with the low mic issue. http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/fix-low-mic-call-t3055661
3. Try disabling any audio mods that you may have installed
4. Clean flash
