I have been having a problem with Google Voice Search for the past while.
What is happening is when I activate the Voice Search and speak something like "Navigate to [random store name]" or "Map of [random place]" it just ignores the command part (Navigate/Map). It just searches the non-command part on google in the browser.
Also does not work with "Text", "Call", Dial" or any other command.
I have tried Clearing data/cache, uninstall/reinstall and neither have helped at all.
I have a HTC HeroC with the same setup and version and it works flawlessly.
It is not a timing thing as I can give it a few seconds before talking and it still does this.
While it is processing the command has a spike in the audio, so it is detecting that I said it.
Has anyone else experienced this? and how can I fix it?
Thanks.
my mic icon from the keyboard its gone so i cant use the voice typing anymore anybody know how can i get my mic back on the keyboard
Press the settings button on the keyboard, enter android keyboard settings and then look for the voice input key option and change it from there.

same issue
Hello,
Even I have tried "Settings > Language & Input > Google voice typing", small mic icon on keyboard seems inactive mode. When I have forced to use voice for input by using the setting, it turned back with connection problem. BTW I am using stock rom ICS 4.0.2.
Thanks in advance

I decided to open my data connection and its work. In fact I didn't understand cause when i bought this phone I haven't got any data connection and it was working very good. Anyway my problem has been solved by itself. Thanks
Interesting. This happened to me today as well.
I uninstalled Voice Search because I thought I never used it. I noticed voice typing was gone and after reinstalling Voice Search, I can't get voice typing back.
Voice Typing never appears in the Language and Input menu no matter what I do.
HELP!
Uninstall and reinstall Google Search and Voice. Check the keyboard settings and make sure voice is enabled.
Every time I open navigation I'm prompted with this message:
Voice Guidance
For voice-guided navigation, you need to install text-to-speech support from teh Android Market.
When I hit install I'm given these options:
Complete action using
IVONA Text-to-Speech HQ
Manage Google Text-to-speech voice data
When I open using IVONA it takes me to IVONA's page and asks me to install a voice (which I already have and works great if I choose to skip this nonsense).
When I open using the second option (manage google...) I'm given this option:
"Download this data to support speech synthesis on your device.
No downloadable voices
How do I get this prompt to stop? Voice guided nav is working just fine so why is it telling me to install this every time I open the app?
Anybody?
I have the same problem...anyone find a solutions?
May not be your issue, but check your settings /language & input / text to speech and be sure you select a default.
You need to enable it. I think its with the keyboard settings.

Unless the settings are elsewhere everything in the keyboard settings are enabled. Like I said, the voice navigation is working fine despite the prompt
Solved
I had the same problem, the dialog-box kept prompting and asking for download.
But when I did the following changes, it stopped and everything worked fine.
Settings ----> Language and Input ----> Text-to-Speech output -----> preferred TTS engine
by default "Samsung TTS" was selected. I changed it to "Google Text-to-Speech Engine" .
Once I made the above change , the Navigation worked fine without any download prompts.
By the way ,my device details are as follows.
Galaxy Note N7000
Android 4.0.3 Stock ROM
Hope it helps
Does someone know what APK I need to add or what to add back in? I cleaned up some Samsung stuff including S-Voice and apparently Google Voice Typing is not an option for me on 4.1.2 stock Fr. I did remove3 "Google Now" ... I bet that did it. Any idea how I can get good old "Google Voice Typing" back as an input method?
I'm pretty sure (but not 100% positive) that Voice Search is rolled into the actual Google Search app (which also houses Google Now), so you're likely correct in your assumption.
Google Voice Search is available on the Market and it works (I installed it to test), but it does not bring back my "Google Voice Typing" input option under Languages and Input / Keyboards. I backed everything up meticulously before removing anything, but cannot seem to get the little microphone back so I can give voice inputs to email etc. S-Voice doesn't fix this either
bump ... please help?

Already activated but no effect, trying factory reset
Ok, just pinpointed the issue, "ok google" works only if the language is set to english, don't work in french...
Problem was here too. I do reset/wipe my watch and now all work. And now battery is better. Yesterday in 12 hours 80%, today after reset in 6 hours 10%
Working now after 3 factory reset and changing language to english and to french thereafter.
Same problem after the OTA : Ok google doesn't work ! long press the button works fine !
After factory reset all works perfectly !
I have the same problem. I also noticed that instead of using assistant on push held it defaults to google search. That's why the keywords aren't working. I have factory reset my watch at least four times and the problem comes back after a couple of days. I am in English US and have switched it back and forth just for kicks. Has anyone had any luck?
edit: I also noticed my Talkback services are buggy and don't provide and example when I tap on the icon under the settings

Did you actually take the time to read my post? I mentioned I have done that several times and the problem keeps coming back.
Hello joeanca
Yes I've taken time to read your post, and I don't understand why a factory reset don't resolve your problem. Because, for myself it resolves it.
Perhaps somebody else could have a new idea to help you
I have the same issue. Factory reset only fixes the issue for a few hours then it happens again (I think once they lose the connection between them (for example because of distance) and reconnect again. Factory reset also enables wi-fi again. The issue is that if the watch is connected only through Bluetooth with wi-fi closed, google assistant and play don't work , if you go in watch settings it says disconnected in Bluetooth but no "cloud" icon pops up at the screen and on phone Bluetooth settings it says connected furthermore the watch works perfectly like receiving notifications changes song track etc. Oh also the silence phone setting from android wear app doesn't work
I just had this problem and resolved it by dumb luck.
I originally synced two Google Accounts to my watch. After updating apps on the watch, OK Google detection hasn't worked.
I found that my default account in Google Assistant on my phone had changed from my primary account. I removed all but my primary account from the watch, and selected my primary account in Google Assistant. OK Google now works again on the watch.

This exactly my problem. The phone says it is connected and the watch works, but the Assistant only says it is offline and cannot understand me. That drives me crazy. I have only one account synced. This Thread is the only thread so far that has my exact problem in it. I know it is a little older, but is there anyone with an idea?
thx and regards
My issue is the Ok Google gets locked into a loop. Whatever the first command I speak to it after Ok Google.. it just loops. Be it What is the time, what day is, send a message, etc. it keeps looping on that command. only seems to affect my Huawei watch 2 classic. phone doesn't have the same issue. have rebooted watch. If i swipe the google assistant away and execute another command, it loops on that one. I have both Facer and Watchmaker watchface apps installed. an issue like this should not have been present in a beta stage so I have to wonder.. what could I have on my watch causing this?
--edit--
Well... it seems Wear 2.0 does NOT like more than one account on a watch. I had three accounts hooked to the watch. My phone's private account. My professional email account, and a purchases account. 3 accounts. Seems that just wasn't how it wanted to work things. As soon as I cut out the pro and purch accounts it starts acting right. I have one account that my android devices get to access for uniformity of data but nothing else gets to use it. I have several emails for various purposes.
So if you have more than one account, as others have found.. remove them down to a single account. Things will probably start working right.
And its back to looping. basically.. if I say Ok Google, then wait for the ready prompt and give it a command "Set an alarm" it will process that command, ask when I want the alarm for, but feed itself the "Set an Alarm" command, ask when, feed command back to itself, ask when... on and on.
Had the same problem. Deleting cache and data of Google app on the watch worked for me. OK google finally works, but I cannot send WhatsApp messages via ok Google, what worked a few days ago with manually starting google by press and hold the upper button.
With Google even talking back works now
i solved the ok googlo hotword problem by deleting chache and data of google app on my huawei watch 2 and it started working again
