For some reason "ok Google" has disappeared from my search bar. I feel like it might've come with the 4.4 kit Kat update because I only recently realized it was gone, and I downloaded KitKat less than a week ago. I'm not 100% sure though. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling all Google search updates to no avail. Does anyone have any idea how to get it back? I can't voice activate Google now anymore, and I really liked that feature. I'm currently running the latest android kit Kat version. Thanks!
I'm getting the same problem here. It's weird because the checkbox under settings in voice for me shows that hotword detection is on...
Same here. Glad to know I'm not alone.
The "OK google" text goes away after a few uses but the OK Google hot word should keep right on working
Nope doesn't work

Hey all,
Its been awhile since I got on to S3 forum..!
Good to see a lot of progress went on..
Well, a quick question regards Google map & its voice turn-by-turn navigation.
When I updated my stock S3 to 4.1.2 and debloated, I do not get ANY voices in Gmap.. when its time for me turn, the phone just makes alarm noise (Dingle)
I remember I had the same issue with CM10.1, where I did not get any voice guided Turn-by-turn directions.
Is there a way to get this feature back on track?
Seems like theres no option to set anything related to voice so I am kind of lost here.
Any tips would be appreciated :good:
I actually JUST had this issue a few weeks ago. Changing the TTS setting: h t t p ://productforums.google.com/forum/#!topic/maps/qYhKWUz7SdY%5B1-25-false%5D
Along with clearing the cache and data from the Navigation app and Location Services and then restarting seemed to work.

Just got the KK update for my 605. I use NOVA launcher and since the update my "OK Google" search has been just going off at random. Anyone else heard of this or have had it happen to them?
It is pretty annoying.
Nova got an Update a couple of days agi, dealing with "ok google". Google has embedded the settings for this battery eater(right?) especially deep into the settings menus, with a tendency of reactivation during Google updates coming w/o notification. A*holes.
Anyone else getting "OK Google" on their screen whenever the face illuminates?
I've only had the watch a few days but last night I noticed that I'm getting "OK Google" across the top of the screen whenever I turn my wrist to look at the watch. I can't actually say "OK Google" to access the voice input prompt but the text is still there. It fades just before the entire face fades but it's very annoying and seems more like a glitch than a feature. Anyone else having this issue and if so how did you fix it?

Thanks for taking the time to post those links. Awesome that none came up in a search. Reading the first few words of the first links gives my solution or at least tells me what triggered it. I activated Ambient Mode to see the face more and am considering disabling that anyway since it seems to annihilate battery life so far. Seems that disabling that setting will correct the 'problem' w/o any additional fuss. Also, I was coming back to post that I was finally able to say 'OK Google' when the little message came up and got the actual voice input prompt and after this it seems as though it's now gone. Another user said something about just saying OK Google when it came up and it went away but I tried this repeatedly prior to creating this thread and was unable to replicate the outcome. It seems so far that I was finally able to do so so I've got a few options plus more links to research if I decided to pursue it.
Thanks again!

Curiosity got the better of me so I went back to try to recreate your results and I think the mistake was that I didn't search this subforum. I think I searched the themes & apps section (I was doing watch faces when I discovered it) and came up with nothing searching that subforum. I started to create a new thread and realized that that probably wasn't the best section for it and decided last minute to create it in the main 360 thread. That would explain why I didn't find anything useful in my search. D'oh!
Mystery solved. lol
Hi everyone,
I'm using OnePlus 3 for 4 months and through every update (3.2.1 --> 3.2.2 --> 3.2.4 --> 3.2.6 --> 3.2.7) I've experienced this strange issue.
Sometimes (like once in 2 days) the voice search, the one that normally activates with "Ok Google", self-activates and waits for a command, eventually saying "I didn't understand".
It happens when the screen is on or when the phone is charging, usually when there are other noises (people talking at work, television, etc).
Did it happen to anyone, too? I never experienced this behaviour in none of my previous phones, I even tried restoring voice recognition but the problem is still there.
Thanks in advice!

I never had the issue on my LG G2 but it happens now. Also happens often on my Galaxy Tab S2 really often. I think its a Google thing and they have made things too sensitive.
Go into Google Now, Settings, Voice, "Ok Google" detection. Turn off From Any Screen.

Well, actually that's not a solution, more like a "workaround"... I like the "Ok Google" From Any Screen feature, I use it once in a while.
It's like asking "I have bad call quality, what can I do?" and receive "stop doing voice calls" as an answer...
Update: I flashed 3.5.4 yesterday, same issue experienced today.
I tried to install google assistant, but it showing "This account is not eligible for the feed"
Hello there guys,
i've recently been looking for a way to use something else rather than "Ok" to summon the assistant, and i found out that Google actually released the "Hey Google" hotword for it.
Before it, i've been able to use the assistant using my voice just fine, but when i've been prompted to retrain the assistant, it asked me to record 4 things (Ok, Hey, Ok, Hey, as far as i know, cause i've never gotten to the "hey" part) instead of 3 (Ok 3 times).
Problem is, when i say "Ok Google", nothing happens. It just stays there, waiting for me to say it, even though i did. And the only solution is to revert the Google app to the factory version, retrain the assistant with the 3 "Ok Google", and then re-update the Google app. Point is, if i even try to retrain the assistant while the Google app latest version is installed, i get stuck, and have to re-do all the process.
Is there any way i can solve this?
I have a OnePlus 5T running Android 8.0.0.
Thank you so much.
I've also been prompted by Google via notification to train the assistant using "Hey Google" as well... but the same bug occurs.
