Google Assistant running on Moto X pure.

Not sure if there is a thread on this already or not but I have gotten Google assistant to work with the exception of '' OK Google '' voice prompt.
https://youtu.be/53AE3YB4SqU
Should I post a tutorial?
It was fairly simple. Root and Xposed version 81 are required.

Yes, please.
That'll be helpful. For some reason it's not enabled even after installing AndroidN-ify exposed module on mine. I guess I need an updated Google App for that, not sure though. Looking forward to your tutorial

You can get it working with the "Ok Google" prompt as well, but you give up Moto Voice.
Turn off Moto Voice and the Assistant Xposed Mod
Reboot phone
Google App -> Settings -> Voice -> "Ok Google" Detection
Set up "Ok Google" detection
Turn the Assistant Xposed Mod back on
Reboot phone
Launch the assistant with "Ok Google" and it will walk you through the process for voice detection again.
A couple notes:
If you don't turn the Xposed Mod off, selecting Ok Google settings will crash the app, and it needs to be set up at least once.
If you don't turn off Moto Voice, it will use Google Now instead of the Assistant when you use voice activation.

The Material Xposed Installer is probably the easiest way to do it, if you're already rooted and have TWRP installed.

Did all of those. Google assistant even comes up when I say 'Ok Google' now. But every time it goes into training mode. And the Google app still crashes when I go into 'Ok Google detection' menu. Any idea why it's so? Do I also have to update my Play services app?

It is a known issue and I think it hasn't been solved yet.

Android N-ify nightlies xposed module besides the assistant brings more Nougat goodies. https://ci.paphonb.xyz/jenkins/job/AndroidN-ify/ http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/xposed-android-n-ify-features-t3345091

Google Assistant on Nougat, Xposed not needed. Get Assistant - Root app on the Play store. It changes your build.prop for you as well as backing the old one up and tells you what to do from there. Only thing is whenever you use the "Okay Google" and assistant opens it keeps going back to the setting to train your voice. Like it isn't saving it but it will recognize your voice once you press "Do it later". Another way around is I long press my home button, assistant opens, then you can talk. Once the assistant is already open "Okay Google" works just fine.
This is running on AICP 12.1 Nightlies (Nougat)

Yeah I'm with you on that, I'm using TruePureXMM v2.9 with GravityBox, Android N-ify & Assistant Enabler and after setting up Ok Google voice detection in the Google App / Settings, and then again once within the Assistant when it first opened... It's not having 1 issue at all and isn't asking to retrain, even after a reboot and works perfectly with both Ok Google and long-pressing the home button. Outstanding!!!

I noticed on the new Google beta app 6.10.33.21 that Google assistant no longer needs chop assistant on any custom nougat Roms. The retain voice bug is gone! Happy day!

Just confirmed that it is also working on my Nexus 6. Once the Google beta app is installed the retrain issue is resolved. Nexus 6 is stock rooted with assistant.

My Google assistant is now showing "can't reach Google at the moment" getting the same issue on my Nexus 6. Google now works but the assistant just quit working. Anyone else having this issue?

now that google assistant is rolling out to all devices, which is better for stock, our moto voice or the google 1?

Google Assistant On Lock Screen

Hi i Have An Honor 6X With EMUI 5.0 And I Wanted To Enable Google Assistant On The Lock Screen But I Can Only Use It To Unlock The Device And Not Use It From The Lock Screen, So Is It Possible To Use It Without Unlocking The Phone

Did you tried to activate the "Ok Google" feature by Google settings? In this way you should be able to interact with it by simply pronouncing Ok Google nearby your phone

I can say Ok Google from any app but i want to use the Assistant on the lock screen without unlocking the device.
And i also had another problem with the Assistant, i have a pair of Aukey EP-B27 Bluetooth earphones and when i use the Assistant her sound is very bad but when i listen to music or watch videos the sound is very good, so what causes that ?

Don't know if it's possible, even with root privileges or Xposed modules (actually unofficial and unstable versions are available for Nougat, but i strongly suggest you to don't try those). At the moment, the maximum i could advise in my experience (i don't even use Assistant, i only use Now rarely) is going to Assistant settings -> Ok Google detection -> and turn on the "Trusted Voice" option to give to Assistant the permission to unlock the screen when Ok Google is heard. For your earphones, i don't use Bluetooth earphones so i couldn't provide a real feedback about. Maybe future Assistant versions would fix the issue; begin to warn Google about it by writing to them, in way that they could listen your problem.

Thats not possible. It may work in pixels just like Siri works but not sure if it will work on non pixel or other devices. Even not sure if it works on pixels. I am unable tp get it working on China variant so can't test this for you mate. For me it even doesn't work with unlocked screen. Have disabled the inbuilt voice assistant but still Google assistant doesn't work

Waking up device with "Ok Google" voice command?

Has anybody had success with waking/unlocking your phone with the "Ok Google" voice command? I enjoy using it but I don't want to have to unlock my phone to use the voice assistant every time, particularly when it's for simple questions (I know, first world problems). I enabled Trusted Voice but that doesn't seem to work when my phone screen turns off. Any help would be appreciated.

Same here. I also tried to do that. Ultimately i came up with nothing.

same here man.

I can't recall the source, but I'd read somewhere it only wakes up to the Dear Honor voice command activated in settings. Seemed to work when I tested it. Also found an automate module that senses the honor voice app open, closes it and loads the Google one. It's pretty sluggish but that's the only workaround I was able to find.

The okay Google command only works with screen off on Nexus and Pixel devices. Honor has another command that you must use, but it doesn't tap into Google assistant.

How do you enable Call Screen?

I just got the Pixel 3a and can't seem to get the call screen to work. No Call Screen option in the Phone settings and no option when I'm getting a call. All the instructions I found are for the Pixel 3.
Edit: Seems like I just needed to update all of my apps. Please delete

I missed your edit. That's great!

Just making sure but it's not just me who doesn't have it. It's only available in the USA right?

hello, I found out that you have to update the phone app in the play store. What country are you in?

Hello I am in the UK, and the phone app is fully updated for me. I've seen people have modified the code for the pixel 3 to allow for global call screening. Hopefully as the 3a will have a the same sort of community.

Question Google Assistant Confirmation Beep

I was able to use accessibility settings on my OG Pixel and Pixel 3 to enable a confirmation beep when Google Assistant has been activated (after I say "OK Google") but I can't seem to find a way to do that on my Pixel 7 Pro. Can anyone help?

You have to enable "switch access" in accessibility settings.

I've done this on my OG Pixel and Pixel 3 but it doesn't seem too be working on my Pixel 7 Pro.

I've done it twice now, first setup, and again after a factory reset. Worked both times. Strange.

Unlocked P7 Pro.

Also here it is not working to enable switch access...

In Google Assistant settings through the Google app you go to accessibility and the options are there and working for me. Not sure if they've recently moved or been changed but I've never used whatever switch access is.

Can confirm that you have to have both of the settings enabled in the screenshot above in order to hear a beep. I don't even have voice active enabled.

Nobody's ever mentioned that setting before but I already had that enabled. I get a confirmation beep when I'm using Bluetooth or Android Auto but not when it's just my phone.

I screwed mine up recently. The above settings were set before, and I've gotten a beep since I got it. Post-screwup, I tried accessibility settings to no avail. Things that were changed beforehand (perhaps - new P7P and I've been both tinkering around and busy - plus I sometimes plug in a DAC and use Neutron Player, which is very possessive. So I can't recall when I noticed the lack of a beep precisely within a day's usage).
So, things that might have affected it:
I allowed Google Assistant to access my screen, and I enabled flash screen when it does so.
I upgraded from the December to January patch.
I upgraded, afterwards, with the small Play Store patch.
I enabled... what's it called - verbal shortcuts like "Answer" that don't require "Hey Google" first. <- Given that Google's reason for zapping the beep was to save response time, I'm suspicious of this, but I've changed quite a bit, so further testing is required.
I'll post if I get the beep back.
***What follows isn't necessary to the topic.***
It's daft that this is even an issue that can't be solved simply with a toggle. Or better, actually asking Assistant to reply when summoned with a beep or phrase, perhaps "Yes, Sir?" In an era with ChatGPT, we ought to be able to at least choose efficient or chummy. Google knows more about me than most friends, they could at least be friendly about it.
[I'm using an unlocked P7P from Google. I'm on Verizon with an eSIM. I have Assistant set so that it's constantly listening. And I've generally got things set to try out everything no matter how intrusive. Hey - it's the first phone I've actively chosen since my Note 4; I wanted to see what we've been given for all that's been taken away. I'm disappointed at all the features that ought to be helpful to my aged father, but are too difficult to use for someone intelligent that can't learn new things well. I'm also seeing just how vastly intrusive it is while saying, carefully, that it isn't. GrapheneOS may be in my future - perhaps because I simply can (goodbye forever, dedicated Verizon phones).]

Just tried Hey Google and ok Google. Both produced the same result, the Google Assistant pops up without a beep.
