Using Bluetooth to trigger OK Google - General Questions and Answers

I found this question asked over on stack overflow without an answer. Anybody know if there is s solution to this?
When you press the button on your Bluetooth headset, it opens Google Search and lets you search by voice.
Here's the link.

Is it possible to use the tab as dialer for my Nexus 1

As I have only data and sms on my subscription on my Tab I would like to have a dialer on the tab which uses my gmail contacts (they are already synced to the tab) to make a call through my Nexus One phone.
Then I could keep it in my pocket or somewhere else during driving as I use the tab for music and navigation in my car.
Does anyone know of a dialer that can do this?
That would definitely be cool.
So, you want the Tab/Nexus to immitate a bluetooth headset?

Just the tab.
So. I don't recall having seen anything that remotely controls a cellphone. However, couldn't you have google voice make a call the same way it does when you use it from your pc and it first calls the number associated with your google voice account, then connects the call with the desired contact?
I know that is not specifically what you are looking for but might provide some ideas.
Otherwise, from what I understand you are saying is basically a remote controll for your phone? It doesnt necissarily need to be via bluetooth. I control my ip handset over the internet with the tie in to my enterprise im client. I can control any of the several ip phones I have attached to my profile in the call manager.
Let me know if you find this elsewhere. Looks like a great application for the tab. Im starting to have device overload!

Just switch sim card?

But then he'd have to switch it back when he gets out the car, that would be annoying

Silly me, I didnt read that it was for his car But no, AFAIK there is an app that does this. A definate gap in the market for devs though *nudge nudge*

Google Now and Bluetooth

So, I noticed an odd behavior with Google Now. If I have Bluetooth on and it's connected to my Moto T505 car speaker, when I go to use Google Now (or Voice Search) it keeps saying initializing. It does not do this if Bluetooth is on but not connected. It also does not seem to do it with my Moto S305 headset.
Has anyone else seen this?

I have this same issue with my Sony Xplode and my note 2
however if i back out of google now and back in it will work.
It hangs on "initializing" the first time. This also happened with my Galaxy nexus.
If someone finds a fix that would be sweet!

Thanks for this find. Now my i535 works with my bluetooth headset and I couldn't be happier and thanks to Home2 shortcut I got rid of that terrible slow S Voice, and am using Google Now and Utter! as my two go-to modules.

Great, I get to finally use smart voice commands via Bluetooth with this phone . . . and it requires that I first enable one of the most annoying user interface options available.
Decisions, decisions . . .

Solved!
Still no fix coming from Google, but at least one nice guy made a temp fix while they do it.
Look for "Voice Command" app on Google Play. Developer's name is IT-DEV-CROWD or code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=42178#c37
It worked for me, after trying a lot of different configurations.

Google voice search won't initialize first time.

My Google voice search won't initialize first time. This was happening on a fresh install after wipe of cm10 official, I then wiped and installed cvd nibbles based on cm10.
It is exactly the same. Whether on Google voice search, or Google voice search on maps. The first attempt will never initialize, then if I hit back, and voice search a second time, it always works.
Has anyone had this issue or have any idea how to fix it?

One thing I thought I'd add is that the voice dialer does not have this issue though.

Google Now

Is it just me or has anyone else noticed that phonetic names aren't working with Google now voice commands?
It fails to call my wife and as she is Japanese it is literally impossible for GNow to understand it.
No one else facing this problem?

speaker phone problem
I am now having the same problem. I can use the microphone for notes or other dictation, but it is inconsistent for the telephone speaker phone. I restarted the mate 7 and it worked for a short time and then stopped working. I recently encrypted the phone, but otherwise using the same apps except for adding WAZE.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it trying to route to BT instead?
What do you mean by BT?
Bluetooth.
The bluetooth was turned off so that wasn't the problem. Today, the speakerphone mic is working, at least for the moment. It is a bit frustrating. I emailed Huawei tech service, but in the past, there were not too helpful.

I have the same problem. Did you find a solution?
Sent from my HUAWEI MT7-TL10 using Tapatalk
Unfortunately, no, I have not solved the problem. I find that if the speaker phone (microphone) is working, it may go off in mid-conversation. Yet, as someone else pointed out, the speaker phone (microphone) works perfectly with Whatsapp, dictation, and using it for other voice commands. It seems to be only related to telephone calls. The mate 7 is an MT7-L09, android 5.1.1. And, of course, Huawei doesn't even respond to customer service emails.
I finally received a message from Huawei tech service suggesting that it might be a bad sim card. However, it seems hard to believe that the microphone works well without the speakerphone and is intermittent while using the speakerphone. Does anyone else have any suggestions?
Has anyone tried a factory reset to see if it solves the speaker phone mic problem. It might be worth a try. Thanks.
I have the same problem . How can I solve it ?! :/
I wish I knew. Obviously, there are quite a few people who have developed this problem, but there is no real help here or with Huawei. I asked before if anyone tried a factory reset, but there was no reply.
Just remove the ok google option and then remove the google now... it will work ok after. I had the same issue andtjis fixed it. Hope this helps

I tried doing what OscarBaia suggested, but it didn't work. However, I am not sure if I did it correctly. I never used google now. How did you remove the ok google option and google now? Please be specific. Thanks.
Use Titanium backup and root and remove The google now aplication...

Thanks for the information, but I really don't want to root the phone. I've used Titanium Backup with another phone and it was great. I guess I will have to look for another solution.
Yes another solution, call Huawey and use warranty to replace phone
