I am trying to unlock / wake up the phone using google Voice Match. I can set it up in the setting but the phone will never wake up when I say "OK google".
Is there any way to get this working?
Using the latest stable MIUI global ROM (9.5.20. 0)
Thanks!
Unlocking your phone with Google Voice Match and waking your phone with Google Voice Match are two very different things. The latter doesn't work on many non-Google phones. For it to work the hardware needs a dedicated chip or sensor that can listen for voice commands while the rest of the phone is asleep. Without the right hardware a phone that is actually asleep can't be woken with voice commands.
That's correct, but it works on this phone using the Chinese ROM, so the hardware supports it.
MIUI offers the setting even in the Global ROM. It's just not working.
The setting on the Global ROM is the generic Google Smartlock setting for unlocking the phone with your voice. There is no setting specific to waking this phone with your voice. I have also never read anyplace that you can wake the sleeping Mix 2S using OK Google on the Global or Chinese ROM. I don't see why the feature would be included in the Chinese ROM at all since the Chinese ROM includes Xiaomi's own AI Assistant that has no English support.
It works with the Chinese ROM and miui's own assistant xiao Ai. The sd845 has the hardware to provide voice wakeup l, but it's not being utilized by Google assistant on miui. I wish some miui dev would take this problem and allow Google assistant to utilize the hardware.
Unfortunately MIUI doesn't integrate Google stuff well even on the Global ROM. The Google Trust Agent is enabled on the phone but there is no front end in MIUI to access the Google Smart Lock Options. If the Mix 2S does have the hardware necessary for Google Assistant to wake the phone when asleep maybe it will be set up to work with GA in a future update. The Global ROM for the 2S was released days before development stopped on MIUI 9 so the Chinese ROM had a lot more development. There was never even a weekly developer build for the Global ROM since it was released so late but there were weekly developer builds of the Chinese ROM. Hopefully the feature will be added but I don't think we're a priority for Xiaomi in terms of development resources.

hey,
As the title suggests i cant use Google assistant on the Chinese rom
if i actually go into the Google app it will work, but with voice widget on the screen it doesn't recognise any voice. or work at all
in Google app Settings/Voice/Voice Match
''Access with Voice Match'' is greyed out and cant be turned on no matter what i do.
no issue on my other devices.
work around would be appreciated
thanks
Same Problem Here. I don't even get notifications of the Google calendar even though all settings are turned on... -.- it really sucks. Won't ever buy that crap again.
Is that problem happening to the guys with global ROM too?

No problems with my global version. I've learned my lesson in buying Chinese versions just for the sake of having a particular phone. Having said that my Chinese Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 didn't have a problem either.
chinese rom probably disabled it
Hi guys,
I am looking for a way to add / enable the smart lock functionality to the MIUI ROM (i use the weekly xiaomi.eu).
That functionality is there (i get the notification to enable smart unlock when pairing a new BT device), but it doesn't work.
Is there any way to do this with root? Perhaps a magisk module or a standalone app?
I spent a lot of time searching for it, without any luck.
Thank you!

do you have twrp?
i think this feature come with Gapps... since we have a fork of the current Gapps it will not be availible...
just to be shure.. youre talking about "Smart Unlock" that consists on body detection, bluetooth unlock wen connected to trusted devices, face unlock and voice unlock.
if you're interested on face unlock just change your region to India or Hong Kong.. on the security tab neard the finger print option will apper something like "add face data"
Note if your region is set to India you'll receive news about criket, your music app home screen will be set to some indian music service (it requires 2 clicks to go to the normal music library), your Mi video app will have the same behaviour and in the home screen there will be more Xiaomi related apps.
Hi, this is a standard in Android, but somehow, Xiaomi blocked it in MIUI.
I am using xiaomi.eu weekly rom, i already have face unlock without switching to India.
What i really care about is the ability to keep my phone unlocked while it is connected to my smartwatch and my car.
When i pair a new BT device i get the option to add is as a trusted device, but it doesn't work.
I really love the hardware, but i hate MIUI. Why do they want to re-invent the wheel? Anyway, this is the last time i buy a device with MIUI.
I tried Pixel Experience and Lineage OS, but they have some other problems. For example, if i use Android Auto, once i disconnect the phone, the screen starts to flicker really bad - i cannot use the phone until i reboot it.
So, i have to stick with MIUI......
Cheers!
My understanding, as things stand now (I'm a new guy to MiUi) is the following:
Aside from face unlock, smart unlock functions are essentially broken. Trusted Bluetooth devices only works with other MiUi devices. Current workaround for having your device unlock always in your car, for example, is to buy a mi band and leave it in the car.
As far as trusted voice unlock, I believe xiaomi.eu is waiting on a weekly global beta for mix 3 which they expect to have the required material included that they can poach to get this working on other sd845 devices like mix 2s.
Not sure I have all this right, so someone correct me if I don't....

Even with Mi Band as unlocking device, the function is not really reliable (at least not in my experience).
As often as not, it happens that the phone does not unlock, even with the band on the arm holding the phone.
Buying a band explicitly for that purpose will not satisfy you.

So I had a couple of Moto X Plays laying around which I wanted to repurpose as "Google Home" and security camera. So I take the necessary steps to install and update Google. Trying out Assistant gives me the: "Google recognized your voice, all set" -sequence and shuts of the toggle for voice match again. Weird! So I keep trying solutions upon solutions and I even revert back to stock rom 7.1.1 and to my surprise it start working again, that is, until I update my Google app again. Now somewhere Google seems to have decided not to support older ROMs anymore. Because guess what: that same version still works fine on my daily driver Samsung Galaxy S9 stock ROM. I am wondering: Is Google deliberately making newer versions of the Google App have Voice Match fail on these older roms (7.1.1 stock and 7.1.2) or am I just being an idiot?
That said I'm gonna try and find out which version of Google App I can get my older ROM to have voice match again.
Hi, a have a problem with my POCO X3 NFC.
After update of MIUI 12 "ok google" on locked and turned off screen stopped working.
Before the update, it was working perfectly. Now "ok google" is working only when the screen is on, also when the phone is locked.
I have tried almost everything, uninstalling updates of google app, recording new voice for google assistant, but have no solution still...
Can you help me?
For me, this feature is very important.
With greetings,
Łukasz G.
Hello, go to your "google" app to launch discover, then on the bottom right you should have "More", then choose "settings" -> "voice" at the bottom you should see "voice from headset/locked phone" : turn that ON and it should work.
(My phone is not in english so the exact names might be a bit different)
I've done what you said... nothing changed.
same here.. just won't work, on poco f 1 worked fine

did you try factory reset?
no i didn't
Is there any solution to this problem??
Also "ok google" using Bluetooth device not working also (settings are ok)...
Can in it be a problem with the POCO microphone and constant listening?
Czy ktoś znalazł rozwiązanie problemu??
The same here. Tried to get updated, reseted Google app. Nothing, so pity!
I am on MIUI Global 12.0.4 with all voice option enabled but, like @grabolukasz , 'ok google' only works if I'm with the screen on (even if locked).
@grabolukasz are you sure it worked before the update?
Hello. Same issue with my Samsung Galaxy A3 2017
Same problem with my poco 3. It's never worked for me. Very frustrating. :-(
i am curious why people use that ok google. isn't on bloatware list for removal?
Afaik google blocked that and made it only pixel exclusive some years back. I have a 5t and was using omnitreskmod. It got screenoff voice commands working but after some months it didnt work and i remember people saying blame google... But still, i wouldnt use it now as it will drain battery.
There are ways to do it (google it).
But it is not safe (google can mistake somebody's voice for yours), so it got removed.
You can do it through bt/wired earphones etc
I'm also looking to have this.

This is not an issue, you can disable "personal results" in the lock screen.

This is not true, my mi 9T Pro/K20 Pro has this feature and works great without issues.
I mainly used this feature to tell google to turn on/off lights. And required me to unlock the phone to execute the command. But I would use google smart lock (mi band) to have my phone unlocked while at home.
In poco F3 eea original rom Is It working good but you have to check in system apps an app called Qualcomm voice assist that are installed and working... Only on poco rom the phone Is It compatibile with this app... On Xiaomi Eu or One Os don't working because if you search this app don't exists and on Google play store are not available... Sorry my bad english guys ... i Hope you understand
Incredible! That seems to solve the problem. Its working fine for 2 days now! Thanks a lot man!
In my case 'qualcomm voice assist' didn't have access to microphone for some reason.
The same here with Poco F3 miui 12.5.4 EU
not working when device locked
and works poorly otherwise (not sensitive at all)
Phone: Redmi Note 10 Pro Max, Poco X3 ProOS: Android 11, on MIUI 12.5 and MIUI 12
Issue:
When I pick Voice to be my default call redirecting app, it does not make calls.
The Phone app just stays stuck on dialing and never dials. Never rings on the other end either.
Sometimes, it causes the phone app to stop functioning altogether to the point that I have to restart the phone to regain functionality. I have sought help for the issue all over the internet and cannot seem to get any info on it.
I don't have an issue with going into Voice app itself and making the call over Wifi. It just will not redirect via the phone app, which was very convienient.
I believe it might be specific to Xiaomi phones, but then again, I used a Phone that uses Google Dialer, and it is the same result, albeit, it was also a Xiaomi phone with Global ROM containing Google apps as defaults.
I believe this to be an issue with Xiaomi ROMs. If I make the call from any other Android 11 ROM, the call works just fine.
Any assistance with this will be very helpful. Google Voice is my most used app on my phone.
No one else is having these issues? Or is it that people don't use Google Voice as much?
Given all permission it requires? Allow auto-start up? Is the phone you said working fine a Xiaomi phone with custom Rom Android 11?
If custom Rom works fine, then it's MIUI's problem.
If it's MIUI problem, ask in Xiaomi official forum or online customer support service.
If custom Rom still having issue, it might be Google Voice issue. Either hardware or software issue.
I have given it all the permissions it needs. And I do believe it might be a Xiaomi thing because I have installed other phone apps and they too can't work. I've posted the issue in Xiaomi forums.
I was hoping other people might be facing the same issue and could help with solutions
Try turn off MIUI optimization in developer menu and see if it works.
Maybe also try this
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/bqasnd
MIUI optimization is nowhere to be found in this ROM. I am looking to see how I can disable it otherwise.

Go into developer setting, scroll down to the botton, press the reset to default setting multiple times. Then the MIUI optimization should show up.
I saw that, and tried it several times but it would not appear.

Thanks. That made it show up. I tried the call with optimization off, same thing. Optimization on, and still the same thing. I think it's a problem with Miui itself. Something in Miui is blocking voice from making calls when it's being redirected.
