Hello,
is it possible to change Bixby home with the Goggle app, which is standard on Nexus or other near-to-stock google experience terminals?
I would like to get google home when I left-swipe from home (now I have orrible Bixby).
Thank you for help

Hi guys, I want to try an icon pack on my non-rooted, stock device, but I also want to use the 'OK Google' function.
Is there a launcher out there with Google Now enabled?
Thanks in advance.

Only the Google Experience Launcher has that feature that I know of.
i saw a similar feature on either another launcher, or launcher mod/add on. let me see if i can track that back down.....
Just got my M8 today. Love it so far. Went ahead and s-off/root/bootloader unlock'd it, and have been getting it back to AOSP as much as possible (GEL & Xposed FTW).
One of the things i've been trying to find a way to fix, is to use Google Now voice search for the swipe down action for when the dot case is on and the screen is off (for those without the case, it launches HTC's own voice search which sucks IMHO). I use Tasker/Autovoice + Google Search API to control my home automation via Google Now, and it would be awesome to be able to do so just by swiping down on the case.
Any thoughts/ideas/resolutions?
Thanks!
Okay, for a bit of background information I among many others have a Galaxy S6 and am currently experiencing a crippled hotword detection from Ok Google.
It only works in the app and where the widget is on a home screen. It does not work when it is off or in a different APP.
I am hoping someone who is rooted and has the same problem can temporarily adjust their build prop under the model and change it to Nexus 5 or SM-N910F and see if that restores the functionality of the google hotword detections under the settings.
When you go to the google search application, go to settings, click on voice, click on "Ok Google" detection, there should be multiple options here, not just "From the Google App". A reboot and maybe even a re-install of the google search apk may be required to properly test this. Either way, let me know. Thank you.

Apparently its been disabled.... If you use Nova launcher it will work from any home screen but it no longer works from any app... Which is a bummer... Used it all the time

Thanks for your reply, but it seems as though you didn't read what I wrote.
I know that it has been disabled. I believe an actual work around may be to modify the build prop as other phones are still functional.
Nova Launcher and the Google Now launcher allow you to use the hotword detection from any home screen, but they do not work in apps or when the screen is off, which is the key here.
How can I use Google Now from the watch to take a note via voice?

That's awesome share with us how
There is a "wearable widgets" app in Google play store, install it. Free version allow only one widget, paid many. Next install "wearable widgets" companion app from Samsung gear store. Set up widget you like on phone (for example google search widget) and that widget (s) will be available on your watch when you open wearable widgets companion app on watch. Use scroll ring to switch between different widgets if you use paid version.

Hi,
I figured a few days ago that when I use the vocal command to activate SVoice on the Watch, Google Now run in the same time on the phone and ear what I say in the watch mic. I haven't yet tested all the thing but maybe it will do what you want.
Is it not possible for someone to develop a google now app for the S2? I sadly can't code to save my life else I would do it myself lol but there's 3rd party apps able to add commands to google now, surely it's possible to create an app for it or maybe even port the android wear one over somehow? Be much better than S-voice.
One thing I've done with S-voice though is by using the text command, I've added my own phone number into my contacts listed as task so I can use tasker to do something when I receive a certain message from the contact task. All I do then is just ask s-voice on the S2 to send task a text message followed by what command I set up. For example I set it up so that I can say to s-voice "text task turn on light" and it will turn on my LiFX smart bulb. It's not fast at doing it being s-voice but better than nothing I guess.
It's kind of sad that "Volume up" isn't even supported by S voice. The gear S2 desperately needs Google Now voice, a sleep tracker, and official native apps for music services. The pull down screen needs an overhaul with common menu settings and bezel volume control too. I should be able to navigate my watch and phone settings with my voice. Volume, Gesture Wake up, Display Always On, Do not Disturb, Power Saving, Play, Pause, Mute, Lights with chosen intensity, and display brightness level. This should all be in the realm of possibility and should be standard in 2016 for an innovative top tier device. S voice is just holding the product line back as it is now. I dream of the day I can just talk to my devices and vehicles like a real person.
Good morning everyone. So I somehow managed to delete my search widget from my home screen and it's driving me crazy because I can't figure out how to get it back. I've tried looking in widgets but it's not there. PLEASE HELP!

There are a few ways to check:
1. Reset the Launcher App Data.
2. Reset Google App Data.
3. Reinstall Google App.
4. Check for Google App in the widget section.
5. Install A third party Google Widget.
If none of these work, reply me for further assistance.
