Question Can't add dock to Home app - Google Pixel tablet

Keeps giving me errors that if they keep happening, to factory reset the device. Really? I just set it up.
All my stuff I have on Google Home on my phone is on the tablet, but the tablet dock itself just can't be added. Any advice?

you trying to add it to itself? or you are trying to add the dock to your phone? Is that even possible since the dock is an "extension" of the tablet?

I am getting the message that something went wrong try factory resetting your device when I try to add mine. Seems to be a problem many are having. I haven't seen a solution yet.

It actually suggests for you to add the dock to your Home app as it gives you more features when it is.

interesting. Well that means hopefully it gets patched. I am not doing a factory reset that is for sure
Should be fixed. annoying though.

I did a factory reset and setting it up while on the dock it all went smoothly. Seems the setup app can do it but the Google home app has issues. It's not as full featured as a nest hub max unfortunately.

Thanks for the good info. What benefits do you get from pairing the dock to the tablet exactly?

I was in the Google Home Preview programme. I left the programme and uninstalled Google Home. It then shows update in Google Play because you can't actually uninstall. Then without doing an update I tried again and it worked.
If I was you I would first just try the uninstall and then retry. If that doesn't work leave the preview programma and try again.

I was not in the beta program but I did uninstall and reinstall home anyway, but unfortunately it did not work. appreciate the suggestion.

here I thought it was a rooted tablet issue. got issue with the home app adding the charging dock. Benefit including dock acting like remote speaker when casting speak audio or playing song. You can group remote speakers, like 2 google home mini and dock, together to make them synchronize and play music. Like mini stereo system with extra bass (dock) for your kitchen.
Well...that was the thing I was trying add the dock to the home app =(

[Solved] How to disable text-to-speech on Infinity?

Ok, so yesterday my Infinity just randomly started reading out all the content of my internet browser (both ICS browser and Chrome), I haven't noticed it anywhere but in the browsers at this point. I've disabled TalkBack, tried uninstalling every app I installed yesterday incase one of them was the cause, reset the settings in both browsers, flushed my caches, and did a cold boot. Still reading out.
I found that if I disable whatever text-to-speech engine is currently being used (either default Google or IVONA) it obviously won't readout, but you can still see where it is "highlighting" the text in the browser that it is attempting to read.
This is thoroughly annoying not just because of it reading, but also because when it is reading something it makes browser navigation extremely buggy.
I'm at a loss right now. I don't know what else to do other than a factory reset, but would really rather avoid that if I can. Any ideas?
Side Note: If I were to do a factory reset, would I lose root?
Thanks.
I gave up and just did a factory reset. This seems to have alleviated the problem for now. I'm just hoping that it wasn't caused by one of the apps I had installed, because I'm in the process of re-installing them now.
I haven't spotted a toggle for the text-to-speech engine yet, so it might be one of your apps that toggled it. (Under Settings you can choose a different engine if you have one installed, but there's no toggle. <?> )

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking too (one of my apps must have triggered it). So far so good on after the factory reset though. I had tried installing IVONA to see if that woudl give me an option to disable it, but all it did was give me a more pleasant voice to listen to

Hi;
I got an ASUS AF700 and it just started to talk to me, reading and highlighting my browsers and other apps.

You can disable "Talkback app" using Titanium backup (if you rooted) or go into settings -> Accessibility --> Under Services, tab on Talkback and turn it off.

You already asked this a few days ago. Do you ever read the answers people post in reply to your questions?
I just disabled the thing in apps/all on day 1, toggling it to 'on' under settings/accessibility has no effect whatsoever.

JB Update Now - How's It Going?

I''m just now installing JB. It didn't seem to run as smoothly as I expected so I''ve done a complete factory reset. I'm having a little trouble getting the weather widget to run . It keeps saying there' s no connectivity yet I know my WiFi is up and running . I''m also downloading all my apps, so everything is kind of slow right now. I thing I''ll be using Apex Launcher since the default launcher still doesn't have many features. It also doesn't us all the possible screen real estate.
Looks like I finally got the weather widget set correctly. It took a factory reset but I think a factory reset is the way to go for this new softwear update. I''ll update after all my apps finish downloading.
I didn't factory reset and mine already runs amazing. Not sure if I necessarily see need for it.
Got my factory reset all done and downloaded all my Google Play apps. I'm getting a constant notification that I have a Google Chrome update but everytime it trys to download, I get an error. It says something about "cannot download due to server error.
Everything else seemed to download pretty quickly. I am using Wizz widgets and have noticed that I cannot log in to the Facebook or Twitter wideget unless I have both applications on my tablet and have already logged into them! Not sure that's the way it always worked.
I did install Apex Launcher and it's running pretty smoothly. The only problem is that I cannot get the weather widget to showup after a reboot! I'll need to work on that. I have also noted that some of the app lists don't seem to scroll as smoothly as before or as I would expect. I did have one Apex Launcher crash so far but it recovered pretty quickly.
My TF700's been running JB for only a little while. I"ve shut it down and restarted a couple of times just to see if it gets better. Time will tell. Now to try out Netflix and Hulu+ to see if they work OK.
All is well with my update, I suppose. Had to disable Browser2ram. Kept getting permissions notifications, over and over.
Biggest issue fro me so far: I no longer have a power control widget. What's up with that?
Sent from my ASUS Transformer Pad TF700T
We'll so far everything is working just great. I've looked at a Netflix movie, Hulu+ movie, and viewed a number of YouTube vids and all ran very smoothly. No stuttering or anything. I also noticed that Netflix scrolling is smooth the way it should be. I've ran both the default browser through a number of web sites and haven't experienced a single crash. The same with Boat browser. I finally got Chrome to complete it's update and I'll be giving it a try.
I still can't get the ASUS weather widget to stay on screen visible. Once I put it on my screen and then go to something else, I come back to an empty space. If I try to put something else there, it shows me the outline of the ASUS weather widget but there's nothing visible. Very strange. I've switched to HD widgets for now.
One thing I did notice with Jelly Bean, you can now place widgets from alternate launchers (Apex and Nova) from the widget drawer. You don't have to place them by holding down on a screen.
Everything seems to be smoothing out. I hope this keeps going as well as it has so far.
My wifi isn't as fast anymore, my phone with cm10 on it gets triple the download speeds using speedtest app side by side. My tablet a little bit of lag that it never had before. I did factory reset also.

So far so good. Loving jb on the 700. Everything seems to be working fine on mine hopefully everyone else is going good also.
To the person above with weather widget I had to fix my settings and that fixed it for me.

Didn't have to do a thing. Exemplary execution of the bean. Everything is smoothly operative.
If I run into anything while more deeply into an app I'll report back.
Thank you Asus.
Running great so far. Haven't tested much outside of the browser and come apps. Overall seems way better and smoother. About to stream it up to the tv so hope all goes well there...
So far so good. Only 1 reboot. Restored to factory. Reinstalled all software. A bit disappointed as I was hoping for better I/O performance and quadrant score. Device still sluggish when reading and writing to sd card.
Anyone tried Google Now?
Tried to trigger it after the update. I tried the unlock ring method as well as the press "Back", "Home", or "Recent" buttons with an upward swipe. I get the little google target. It starts for a split second, then I see the small popup at the bottom saying "network error. Check your connection...". The google search screen comes on and that's it.
Not rooted and I haven't done a factory reset yet as everything else seems to be working well and thought I would post here first to see if anyone else is having the issue.
Thanks, Jim
Games seems to be working well. I've never been able to play Nova 3 before it would always freeze and flicker. No longer. Runs well. Trying out MC3 now see if it gives me those known issues with getting disconnected in multiplayer mode.
Update: MC3 no longer disconnects during gameplay on multiplayer. JB has been a welcome change indeed.

gn works great for me. first time i got that error as well. just go in to your app drawer and set up google now (google icon).
I'm happier with my tablet now, the update makes me feel better about ditching my Note 10.1 for the Infinity.
Some forum apps are loading kind of slow though.

Jelly Bean is a little sticky.....
Downloaded JB this morning and really happy to see Google Now, but didn't really see much of a speed improvement. Maybe cause it was fast already with ICS. Two things are a little confusing. I thought that JB was making the stock browser CHROME, well I still have the ICS stock browser and flash works fine. The other thing is that the tablet sometimes freezes at seemingly simply tasks and completely re-boots.
Do you think a factory reset would help?? Or is there a setting I need to tweak??

[Q] News and weather app (GenieWidget) stopped working?

Has this app stopped working for anyone else here? I tried force closing, and clearing data. Also tried uninstalling and re installing the .apk.
Every time I try to launch it, I get a message that says "Unfortunately, News and Weather has stopped."
Haven't changed anything on the phone. It was working this morning, but when I tried it this afternoon, kept getting the error.
Thanks!
yeah, i think we are having the same problem here

Likewise here in New Zealand on a Note 3. Fine last night, no good today. Have uninstalled, rebooted, tried several different apks now out there (1.3.11 being the newest) - all the same result. I sincerely hope this is a temporary thing, I depend on that app and really dislike the less flexible and more data-hungry alternatives like NewsHog.
same here
exact same thing here. only "new" thing i could remember was a chrome update last night (could definitely be another thing.. jus sayin). now the news and weather app doesn't work just as you guys described. no amount of data clearing and reinstallation works on my ics. - vancouver

Having same difficulty here with an HTC One, Android version 4.3, HTC Sense 5.0, Software number 3.24.531.3, HTC SDK API level 5.45. Likewise, have tried Force Close, clearing Data, clearing Cache. Seems to work once phone is rebooted; text and the local wx/temp shows up. However, when I click on the Genie widget, I (1) first see a progress bar at the bottom of a plain black field, then (2) get the popup, "Unfortunately, News & Weather has stopped. (OK)."
Agreed, it's an invaluable app which came installed on my One. Please fix if possible. Thanks!

I had no Chrome update yesterday that I recall, and updated nothing today except for reinstalls of this app. If you think Chrome was the issue, maybe try winding its version back in app manager?
But I'm guessing it was unrelated, and therefore hopefully your app will come right also in the near future.

I accidently disabeled/deleted the Google app

so I am an Idiot,
I had this issue with my headphones on my phone that google would pop up on random times to ask me wether I needed help from the voice support thingy.
So I looked up some video's on how to fix it and most videos said to just disable/delete the google app from my phone in App manager.
Everything went OK but when I wanted to go to my home screen, an error popped up saying there was no home screen...
I'm like; 'What the hell?!?'
so I turned off my device completely just to discover it wouldn't boot up correctly when I started it again.
now I am stuck with only my bootloader and I can't get back to factory mode, I did not root my device for any of your interests
pls help someone who knows something that might help me
Go to recovery when turning device on and from there do a factory reset?

So you did something in settings, or are you rooted and used some app to delete stuff? The answer to your problems really depends on what you did.
As a quick fix, log into your Google account via a PC and find Nova Launch (or some reputable launcher) and push it to the phone, once it installed press Home and it should ask you to select your Home screen and make sure to tick "Always".
The real problem here is you tried to a fix a problem that didn't fixing, just a quick settings change... A quick thread started here would have probably got the quick answer of turning of Google Assistance Anywhere to fix the problem without messing anything up.

Hi, I did not root my this device and did not delete the home screen from TWRP, just from the application manager. but it's more than just the home screen. I said I've tried to restart the device but when I was booting it up again, I only saw the Motorola logo loading for like 15 minutes.
It does connect to my PC and it recognizes the device, but I can't find it in File Explorer.
I might try to install Nova launcher, just to see if it works or not.
thanks for the reply though

If your not rooted you couldn't have deleted the app needed, only disabled it. Pull down the notification shade twice (or with 2 fingers) and tap the settings gear, scroll to Apps, then scroll to the bottom where disabled apps would be listed and re-enable everything and reboot. If that still doesn't work, push Nova, and as a last resort you can perform a factory reset.

Apps Ghost Lingering on Home screen

My note 20 ultra is having an issue where certain times when I go back to home screen, the app I was on leaves a ghost image on the screen. Only way to seem to get rid of it is to reboot device. Have to do this once a day. Tried with Nova and One UI but no dice fixing without reboot.
See my screen shot. Is there another way to refresh your home screen a la Windows?

Did you set your phone up from scratch or did you transfer data from another phone. If you transferred from another phone there's been numerous post here about bugs and they were fixed with a FDR.
From the boot menu clear the Sytem Cache... this cures many glitches.
Find the app doing it and clear its cache and data if need be.
If that's the only issue with that load and nothing gets it done, disable the pop up notifications/overlay permissions for that app. Not sure how it's displayed in settings on Q.

Could the MS apks be the root cause?
I don't use any of the MS apks, in fact they're all blocked.
If you do a hard reset and it comes back, you'll have gained nothing. Most times it's a settings issue or a misbehaving 3rd party app.
Have had the most trouble with 3rd party launchers. Best to avoid them as they can goof up a lot including boot up.
>Keep playing with it< and try some Google searches as others will many times have the same issues.
Try package blocking suspect apks and see if that ferrets it out. Use Device Manager to see what apps are loaded in the memory cache when it goes nuts.
I've used this to track down a nasty one, once I cleared the data on the right system apk all was good.
Best of all if it happens again, I know what to do.
A last resort before a hard reset is to do a setting reset however this is a global settings nuke.
Again, clear the system cache and then suspected apk caches however sometimes you'll need to clear their data as well. PD MDM is a better option to clear apk caches/data in as it leaves no nulls or something that clearing the same in settings DOES.
Sounds skewy but been there, done that.

Back up everything to Samsung cloud and do a FDR. If that doesn't fix the issue just restore and you're right back where you were.
There have been several reports of bugs on this forum and they were mostly due to restoring data from another phone.

Ok. I just did the memory clear someone suggested and I am waiting to see it happen again to see which apps are open when it happens again to do selective uninstalls. If it doesn't work I'll go FDR unfortunately

Hopefully it might fix it but you should never transfer data from your old phone to your new phone, it just causes problems. I've been doing this since 2009 and have learned the hard way.

Yeah I can see that happening... lol, no!
I clone my XP×64 and W7 OS drives all the time... for the same machines of course.

Update: had it happen 2 more times in the last week. Just did the FDR so we'll see. If it happens again, uninstalling Nova.

3rd party launchers can put you in boot loop hell.
Had it happen twice in 2 weeks.
Was thinking it might be another app but on the 3rd reload I stayed with 1 UI...
2 months later still stable as a rock.
If a launcher is acting even a little slow or twitchy... ditch it.

Let me know how it goes. Also I've seen no reports of Nova causing what you're experiencing, good luck.

I would have already stuck with one ui had it been a little more customizable. Lack of vertical scroll app drawer and 3rd party icons killed it for me

I don't like the bloody white icon labels...
1 UI is fast and the most stable. After seeing all manner of screw ups on 3rd pretty launchers and 2 back to back reloads... done.
Got rid of most of the bloody white except the page indicator. Samsung morons... even with only a home page it still shows, jeeeeezse!
Nothing in the Good Lock apps to remove them either.
Grrrrrrr....
