No video recording - audio problem - Mate 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sup fellas.
Just bought this phone last week and just tried to use the video recording.
It errors out that Google search is using the microphone and so won't allow me to record.
Tried closing all open google search apps and chrome but to no avail.
Anyone got any ideas?
Exact error message is : Com.google . android.googlequicksearchbox :search is currently recording audio. Camera will not be able to record right now.
Thanks!

try disable google now voice recognition

Not necessary to disable google voice recognition at all. It should work just disabling voice detection in everywhere (Google app --> Setting --> Voice) so voice detection will still working but only from google app. (Maybe you'll need to plug and unplug charger for the change to have effect).

[Q] Voice Search

It always concerns me when issues such as this just "fix themselves" but this is exactly what has happened to me here.
Maybe a temporary glitch in Goggle's cloud this morning.
Never mind...
For some reason, I can't get voice search to work on this tablet.
I can record and playback my voice using the "Recorder" app.
So my microphone and speaker hardware is OK.
I can see the mic level working when I try to speak into the search box.
It's as if the voice sample isn't being sent to the cloud or I have an app missing.
Any ideas? Anyone else have his working or not?
This is on a brand-new, non rooted US A700.

Last google app bugs earphone functionalilty

after last update of google app, my earphone doesn't work. First, I thought that was earphone, so I changed it, but result was the same. So, after various test, I have found it's an option in google app that stops earphone voice (I can ear but my voice don't go).
Could someone test this bug? In practice you must select, in the menu of google / voice / setup OK GOOGLE / use OK GOOGLE from any screen and than you have to use earphone (no bluetooth ).
I have stock updated rom with no root.
Thanl

There isn't really any need for anyone to test, this is a pretty well known bug with this device and has been discussed a fair bit.

Really weird bluetooth behavior since 6.0 upgrade

So I'm not sure if this is an issue in the Doggcatcher app or not. So here's my setup and details.
Nexus 5 completely stock 6.0. Phone has never been rooted, bought new from Play store. Bootloader is locked.
I am using an LG HBS-730 bluetooth stereo headset
I have 2 numbers on this phone, one is the carrier number (T-Mobile), the other is a Google Voice number that is managed by the most recent version of Hangouts with the Hangouts dialer.
Twice today, I have been listening to a podcast using the Doggcatcher app when an incoming call from my Google Voice number happens through Hangouts. The Doggcatcher app will pause, I will push the call answer button on the headset, and the phone call will begin but the podcast will resume playback at the same time. I can pause the podcast via the app controls on the phone and the call will continue as normal. The caller can hear the podcast as well.
Not sure if it's the app or the OS/bluetooth causing this but it's really confusing. I reported the issue with the developers of the Doggcatcher app, but I haven't posted it to Google yet.
Any ideas?

I have a slightly different problem with bluetooth, after update to 6.0 on my nexus 5 (stock) my polar running watch can't sync with the companion app. I can see the watch listed on blue tooth settings but when i click pair nothing happens.. Not sure if it's an app of OS /bluetooth issue.
I have an even more weird situation.
Ever since I updated my nexus 5 to android M, I started to experience google now voice input on android wear showing frequent disconnected in car, and I am streaming music at the same time.
Weird thing is this behavior only happens in car. If I try the voice input without phone BT connected to my car, everything is fast and fine.
I'm not sure what triggered this and I have done several experiments already.
- Even if I pause streaming music to car BT, Google now voice input on wear still shows disconnected in car.
- Weird thing is I can still use Google translate voice input on wear, while streaming music to car BT.
- My wear on Google now used to be able to recognize chinese (I think it's because I add chinese in google now setting on my phone). Now it only recognize english while google now on my phone takes chinese/english mixed. I set english as primary language and chinese as secondary on phone google now. In Google translate wear app, I can speak both english and chinese.
- I have reset/ connect/ disconnect wear multiple times. End result is still the same. Google now voice input on wear shows disconnected in car.
- Add Android Wear app to ignore list of battery optimization seems to make no difference.
Hmmm....strange stuff indeed. Hopefully someone smarter than myself can take a look at the issues. I know that I never had this problem on the final version of 5.1.1.

I solve my syncing issue between my watch and nexus 5 , it turns out i have to have my location service on along with bluetooth.
Source:
"If you are running OS 6.0 (Marshmallow), please note that Google has changed the permissions required for Bluetooth syncing. You must turn on location services to sync your tracker (Settings > Location). For more information about the latest Google permission requirements, see Google's Android 6.0 Changes document. "

Voice control issue

Hi,
I just got my Honor 8 and I have encountered problem with voice control. Wake up word works fine, but if I try to follow with command "where are you" or "Call someone" it does not react.
Qucik call - pressing volume down and saying "Call someone" works ok.
I have tried to disable Google app, but it didn't help. Tried to find other solutions, but there is nothing.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot
Are you having problems with camera app as well pop up that says audio.google.searchbox. I'm also disappointed I can't see a way to fix this.
When OK Google detection is turned on it does this with a lot of apps.
Hello.
I think there are 2 competing voice control systems on the device. The phones voice control and googles. Am I right? Does anyone know how theese work together e.g. do you have to choose wich one to use whereas the otherone will be disabled? In the beginning my local voice control worked fine but after turning on google voice control ("ok google") the local system started erroring. When trying to configure voice control i get a message "HiVoice Is currently recording audio. com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox:interactor will not be able to record right now".
Any ideas whats going on?
I tried disabling Ok Google, but it doesn't work I switched to using Ok Google instead as this one works fine

MIcrophone issue with Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 Plus

Hi, recently baught Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 plus with original ROM as is. It is awesome. But there is a very strange issue with it. After installing apps all those for communication between people like viber, skype, messenger etc. are working fine. But when I started to use native camera app for some time it is working good and can record video with sound but at some later point (don't know why and how), it can't record video with sound anymore. After reset factory settings to start over, camera again can record video with sound. I also experiment after installing each app related to the use of microphone if it make mic not working but this is not the case. Well after many tries to identify the problem I downloaded an app for recording only audio. It is called voice recorder. And surprisingly for me it turned microphone on and after using it, it enables the mic and then immediately after that I can record video with sound from the native camera app. It seems come flag identifying the mic is enabled is turned on and off in defferent conditions. So how can I solve this problem? Tried to use feedback from the tablet but it is not working for some reason, when I hit send button to report this issue it gives some error on chinese which I can't understand. Thank you
