OK Google.. with screen off.. A good feature that's Working :) - OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion

Honestly, I never thought ok google would work with screen off for non pixel devices... But it works for OP6.. Just tried it..
This helps in unlocking the phone will driving and directly making calls..
Apologies if you already knew this before but it's kinda new for me.. Just thought of sharing this with anyone who is like me...

Thanks for sharing. Can you share the settings steps for it.

Lock ur phone and try saying ok google.. It will unlock

But it can be a pain if you have a Google Home as well; they fight to answer.

Hahaha.. Probable solution would be to use a pair of earphones with mic and whisper.. Okay google..

Thanks ! I never used Google Assistant, but I may try if it is so easy...provided the permanent listening does not eat battery ! By the way, any changes in battery drain when using this feature ?

Ya Infact this is the 1st oneplus phone with ok google working with screen off

It's strange for me that this is news because I've been using custom romsnfor so long that had this implementated. It's a good feature
I think the idle drain will be about the higher than without it (this is what I have noticed) but it's not massive so definitely a recent trade off if you like the service. I have a few Google homes and they all pick up my voice but then it knows from which device to reply from based on what's nearest to you.
I've used this mainly for turning on Bluetooth and setting navigation whilst driving. Also asking questions whilst driving that I want the answer to.

I doubt if custom roms would make any difference. I have used oneplus 1 and op3 but none of the custom roms for these devices had this feature.. Interesting point you made about multiple Google homes devices and the nearest one reverts back.. Didn't know this..

thanks ! im contemplating between this and the pixel 2 xl and this is one of the features that stops me. Would be best if it has AOD as well!

If sommone Not Getting beep sound while assistant wakeups you need to enable Switch acess in accesability settings

I'm not a call-recorder app expert, but it's surprising that so many don't work on the Fit. Why would that be?

[XPosed Mod] HiGoogle - "Hi Galaxy" phrase opens Google Now instead of S-Voice

[XPosed Mod] HiGoogle - "Hi Galaxy" phrase opens Google Now instead of S-Voice
I present to you: my first ever XPosed Mod HiGoogle!
It's really my first original android app. The first one I didn't follow some sort of tutorial to make anyways. It opens Google Now natively when you say "Hi Galaxy" instead of the crappy S-Voice app. It took me forever to get this done, but in the end I learned a ton about how both Android and XPosed work. :good: So w00t for me, :good: chalk that one up as a personal accomplishment.
Anyways, it still needs S-Voice to run. S-Voice is what controls the always listening feature of the phone. in the future I plan on changing that, and perhaps changing the trigger phrase as well (fingers crossed!) So while we can't get rid of S-Voice yet, this removes the need to use a middle-man app like tasker to open it, which in the end, makes things a hair faster (and $6 cheaper.) I think we can all agree that faster is better.
So while it's not the perfect solution yet, it's a move in the right direction and hopefully more will come of it.
This has only been tested on 2 Notes so far, a T-Mo and a VZW, but it should work on any Samsung with 'Hi Galaxy" always listening support. I'm personally on version 11.2.2.0 of S-Voice but I'm not sure if that matters. Report any issues or and I will try to deal with them as fast as I can.
It's not my fault if you break stuff.
:good: <------ Hit my donate button and buy me a bud if you like it!:good:

Does this close s-voice when it opens, then open voice search?
djdavis said:

No, currently it just opens Google Now over SVoice, as SVoice is what controls the service that listens for commands. I'll look into that though it's a good idea, I may be able to kill the app but leave the service running.
oh so sad so so sad... i thougth you are a magician and managed to change the Voice recognition phrase...The developer Skilllevel for that is like getting knox from 0x1 to 0x0....from what i've heard
There are already apps for your purposes. I use S for Switch Voice
But thank you very much for your developing and sharing. :good:
Instead you maybe could try to get the "OK Google" command working for German and every other language. Because when google fails with recognition you have to grab your phone and tap on the mic button or wait until the screen shuts down. It is only possible when Google now language is english. This is something which really annoyes...

Nice, (or should i say YeeHaw ) this is where my hopes were.
And do you think it is possible to change the wake up command from "Hi Galaxy" to anything we want too? I heard it's nearly impossible...but chainfire isn't the only magician around here...

That all depends. I found some type of file that looks like it might be some kind of a raw audio or a wav file possibly. I'm digging deeper into Samsung's code whenever I have time trying to understand what's going on. I'm gonna have to keep studying before I can get to that point, but I think that will be part of the natural progression of the updates to this app. Has Chainfire done any work on this?

No not that i've heard of. Today i recognized that the "Google Now launcher" works with "OK Google" in german. So maybe you can find something when making a code comparison to use the OK Google command no matter how your phone and or googles now language is...

As of now, overhead.
This mod will rid you of one extra service running on your phone compared to those other apps. If all you want is Google Now instead of S-Voice then this is probably the better solution. If you want a bunch more options, use one of those other apps. I have more plans for the future but I was super excited to release my first contribution to the community :victory:
I think is a great idea. I for one have been using an app called S for Switch Voice that overrides SVoice and launches Google Now. It works great and dont have any problems and doesn't cause much or at the very least battery drain. But im willing to try this.

Doesn't Work in Note 3 N900t 4.4.2 when phone is unlocked. Nothing happens. It launches google now when the screen is off but you have to swipe to unlock to access google now. I disabled it. Good idea but it needs work.

I'll look into it I used an older method of wakelocking to try to get around that, but I guess it doesn't work for all. What version of android are you running?
Ah I was looking for something like this, but that was before I installed the S5 launcher
Now I get the best of both. This is a good mod for those who want the stock launcher though! Good work.
Well done... keep up the good work.

[APP][2.2+] Awake/Sleep Volume Adjuster

When your phone is in your pocket, full volume notifications are necessary if you don't want to miss a message. But when you already have your phone out and unlocked, there's no need for them to be loud and annoying, especially if you're already using the app they originate from (e.g. message apps).
Awake/Sleep Volume Adjuster lets you set custom notification volume levels for when your phone is asleep and when it's awake.
This is my first app, so I apologize for any issues it may have, but I hope people will find it useful. Either way, it's been nice to have just for myself!
Nice idea, but ram hungry!

Aw, is it really? Bummer. For me it was on par with my other background-type helper apps I use regularly. What device/version have you tried it on?
Very useful app. Thank you!
Does this effect battery life at all? This is a great idea for an application. I hate when I almost crap my pants from a notification being too loud! I hope this app does well and has many more updates in the future.

I've got a problem, when someone calls me, and my phone isn't in my pocket, but I'm not using it either, the screen turns on, so the phone goes vibrate mode, I don't know if can be fixed. Great app btw.

If you don't like my hobby, well, I can't help you there. Mate.
Where I CAN help you is with your real problem. See, I also got an used Pixel with rattling vibration. So just go thru all the settings on the phone and anywhere you see it - disable it or turn it off. This means haptic feedback, keyboard settings, ringtone settings etc. You can't disable it all at once, you just gotta go one by one. It's a 3 minute walk, you can do it.

Edit: Resolved - For over 10 years, I have been using the BACK button to close activities. All of them. When I want to return to the launcher, I just press BACK from withing the given app until I get 'back' to the launcher. Why wouldn't I do this? It's how you close an app. Well, I hit the HOME button instead of using BACK to exit the app gracefully like I do for all other apps I run.. and.. AOE works. I don't get it. I'm not much of an Android developer, and I hate everything Google has done to Android in the last 5 years, but what gives here? I assume (and I can see) that the backgroud service still runs after the activity closes, so why would I want to leave the activity open and return to the launcher without gracefully closing the current activity? Anyway.. if I leave the activity open, it seems to work as expected, but not if I close the activity. Go figure.

I am using Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 on OnePlus 7 Pro. I've tried Plus Beat, True Edge, and now Always On Edge. I can't get any of them to work. Plus Beat came the closest by repeatedly flashing the lock screen, but I really want to use AOE and I would like to see the edge 'horizon' lights. I've given AOE every permission and accessibility service I know how to, and it still does not work.
Is it possible to use AOE on One Plus 7 Pro with Resurrection Remix 8.6.7 (Android Q10 based, and goes on top of OOS 10.3.8)?
