? Very slow speech recognition.

Sometimes my Moto will recognize my voice as I'm saying it an execute the command quick, like I think it should all the time.
Sometimes I'll say something and it'll take forever, and sometimes completely fail. I can then open my phone and do a voice command with immediate results, so it's not my connection.
I removed commander and autovoice which seemed to help some at first, but I'm not sure it made a long term improvement. Removing some apps I didn't use from the watch also seemed to help some, freeing up RAM.
Is too much of the voice processing happening on the watch instead of the phone? Or is there a bluetooth issue? My S4 processes voice very quick almost always.
Anyone else experiencing this? I can't seem to find any time this does it more than others. Quit or loud room, doesn't seem to matter.
Any suggestions would be a great help. I use the moto for voice commands a lot and it defeats the purpose of not pulling my phone out when it takes so long.

That one.
My old, decrepit galaxy s2 has what you describe but worse, sometimes phone bluetooth just turns off and can't turn back on... but mine is probably broken and dying.
Try re-pairing, cycling bluetooth on phone, or changing roms to one with a better bluetooth stack

If your S4 processes it fine, then it certainly is the connection between it and the watch. If cycling the antenna doesn't work try resetting either device, and if you're running a custom ROM check its dev thread for any BT related issues.

Going to try flashing an updated ROM. Currently on GoldenEye NB1 and going to update. I will let you know if this fixes the issue. Thank you two for your help.

Problem fixed
So I deleted the 360 from my phone's bluetooth. Then reset the 360. Upon reconnecting this time it worked great and has been excellent in recognition for a couple days now. Not sure what the difference is now, but it kept me from flashing my phone.

Moto360 having trouble connecting to Nexus 6?

Anybody else using a moto 360 with their nexus 6 on Verizon?
I am having connectivity problems between the watch and the phone. Sometimes I speak into the watch and Google is thinking, thinking, and then stops. Like it can't reach the phone. Anyone else?
I don't know if this is a Nexus 6 on Verizon, nexus 6 in general, or moto 360 problem.

As I'm reading about this, it seems like this might be not only a Nexus 6 and Moto 360 problem, but an Android Wear/ Lollipop problem. Hopefully if 5.1 comes out soon, it'll fix this.

No issues here since xmas with my 6.

Thanks for the reply. Weird.

This definitely happens to me too. After giving it a command the little circle keeps spinning until it comes back displaying "offline" even though I'm in an area with good reception. Sometimes though it just keeps spinning until I eventually swipe right to dismiss it and try again. Sometimes when trying to get directions from my watch it'll tell me to open Maps on my phone in order to continue.
An issue that persists for me is immediately upon plugging my Nexus 6 into its charger my 360 disconnects. I notice this immediately because the lost phone notification pops up on my watch and it vibrates sporadically. This is an issue that has really puzzled me because I can't tell what it could possibly be related to.
I used to have issues with text notifications not being pushed, but this has stopped happening. From time to time my watch will disconnect from my phone for seemingly no reason, and I'll get a "did you leave your phone?" notification. This happened today even, while I was using my phone. Other times when I walk out of range and then walk back into range it won't automatically reconnect. When this happens I have to open Android Wear, select Disconnect (even though Android wear will display "connecting...) And then Connect, and it'll connect again.
Almost half the time I go to send a text by voice I get the issue the OP mentioned, where the circle keeps spinning and nothing happens, or "offline" is displayed. I would really love a solution to this as sending texts is a core feature of Android Wear, and it totally defeats the purpose of the smart watch if it's supposed to save you from having to pull out your phone.

No issue for me, mine working perfectly but mine is international edition Nexus 6 and running CM 12 ROM.

Thanks for all that input. I definitely see the beginning part as being the problem that I am having.

My 360 and Nexus 6 don't seem to have an issue.
Have you tried updating Google Play Services?

Bluetooth turning off since NMF26U

Has anyone been experiencing their bluetooth turning off on its own since the MNF26U update? I've tried re-flashing the factory image and doing a factory reset, but the problem still exists.

I've had the same persistent issue also as of recently. Only things that use on Bluetooth is my Hauwei Watch and State Farm Drive Safe beacon. I haven't figured out what is causing the issue.

I also use a Huawei watch and the drive safe app. I'm gonna install an older version of the state farm app as it recently was updated now that I think of it.

FWIW: I've had no Bluetooth issues. Only things I use it for are connecting to my two cars for phone, and Android Auto (which uses USB and Bluetooth connection).

I am also experience this same issue. Seems when I get in my car I have to toggle my BT back on. I am using a Samsung Gear S3 with my Pixel XL.

Ever since I got the Gear S3, my Bluetooth will restart every single time I disconnect my Bluetooth headphones. It also never routes calls through my headsets unless I go into Bluetooth settings and uncheck and then recheck the phone audio option of those headphones every time I reconnect them. I've tried maybe 6 different BT headsets and it's the same case with all of them.

I have been having this issue since NMF26U as well. NOF26V actually seems even worse. It doesn't go off immediately upon connection or disconnecting from my car, but then randomly wile the BT lite will disappear while it is disconnected from any devices. Toggling it back on works as does a reboot that comes back on with BT activated even though it was off when rebooting. Hard to believe after this many updates that BT issues continue to be an issue with this phone.

Probably background tasks are getting killed aggressively. Despite being "not battery optimized", my VPN app gets killed too, if I don't touch my phone for too long. E.g. at night. And yes, I'm facing Bluetooth issue too.

Strange, Bluetooth hasn't turned off since my first post. ?

I've had this issue and I'm not on the latest firmware. It's happened twice now. Very random, a week between. Maybe it was an update with the Google app, I've noticed a bunch of updates recently

I am having the same issue. The only thing I use my bluetooth for is my car. I have to turn it back on everyday when I start my commute.

I think I found a work around....

This suddenly started happening to me as well and at first I thought it was my Moto 360 watch going bad since it kept displaying "Bluetooth Services has Stopped". After looking I noticed my Bluetooth was off on my pixel and here is what I did after learning a similar experience from my Camera shutting down on my old Nexus 6.
I went under Settings/Battery/Click the 3 dots in top right corner and select "Battery Optimization"/Then select the little drop down arrow next to "Not Optimized" and select "All Apps"/ Scroll down to "Bluetooth MDI Services" and Bluetooth Share". I selected both of them to "Not be Optimized" but you can play around and select one or the other to see if it works for you. Since I selected both my watch has stayed connected now for about 2 days straight and my Bluetooth stays connected and connects automatically like I've set up to my car and other devices. It also works and stays on when my phone goes into "do not disturb mode" also....
I'm not saying this is the "fix" for it but it seems to be working for me....
I hope this will work for you guys and helps!

Yeah I would be very curious if it works for you as well and hopefully it does. I was getting very frustrated with it but since I changed those settings it seems to be working fine now and I haven't really noticed any difference in battery performance either.... If you don't mind, keep me posted as I'm curious. Thanks!

Had the Bluetooth turn off on my XL before even entering my car (but I didn't see it happen except when I was about to get in the car and noticed no BT indicator). This was approximately an hour after a reboot and no BT devices had been paired though the indicator was on for some period after the reboot. Pretty hard to believe it was an optimization issue since I had run no apps after the reboot. While typing this, the BT icon disappeared again. Add this to getting a Verizon "Server Unreachable" error on my wife's Pixel yesterday and my XL this morning that both needed reboots to remedy. My frustration with this phone is pretty bad today. Both are unlocked BL, rooted with newest SU, running newest TWRP and newest Google version but otherwise stock. P.S. When you see about 4 Google play updates a day for about 2 weeks (with not very many apps installed other than the base) it is hard to guess what my be causing the issue. OK, rant over.

BT has definitely been a PITA since the latest security update. It's completely ruining the music experience on a car I bought days before the update came out. Since the update I constantly have to toggle bluetooth on then off again to get the phone to connect to the car. Then I have to open Google Play Music and start playback manually. This happens several times a day and is very annoying. Had not a single issue before the update.

I am having issues with Bluetooth disconnecting as well. Was bad on previous build but this most recent update, NOF26V build, is worse. I connect to my truck, watch, and speaker system in home and office. Happens randomly without notice. I have tried to test the "do not distrub" theory, after reboot, etc., so far I have not figured out a root cause or time.

Trying the optimized thing for the heck of it. I noticed that only share was listed and not MDI services. I wonder if that is only available on Google phones and not Verizon somehow or only shows if the BT is connected to the device, but I'm not in the car to check.

I too have a gear 3 frontier and since then I have to reconnect my pixels bluetooth, pretty much once everyday. very frustrating lol

Same BT problem
I have been having the same issue with BT switching itself off for about a week now. Never had any BT issues prior to that. Mine is a Verizon Pixel XL. I noticed it when it wouldn't connect to my car, but I quickly discovered that was because BT was off on the phone. I always leave BT on, so I knew something was funky and paid close attention after that. Once I turn it back on it connects to everything just fine and it stays on for the duration of me using it at that time. But when I go to use it the next time, it is off again. It can be a variable length of time in between when I use it, so I don't know how soon it turns off, but it has to be within just a few hours. This pattern suggests to me that something is turning it off, perhaps to save battery, if it goes without being used for a certain time period. I did not knowingly turn on any setting that does that, so it makes sense that an update changed something. I have not tried the workaround/fix mentioned above; I will do it and report back.

Bluetooth disconnections and unpairing driving me to distraction

My issue seems to be different from others' as mine isn't just bluetooth losing its connection - it actually unpairs.
In my car (it has an Android Auto compatible infotainment system) it works fine for ages then fails to connect all of a sudden. Then after a while a message pops up on the car's screen saying "bluetooth pairing successful". The phone then asks me for contact sharing permissions. Of course it screws up the smart unlock feature as a result forcing me to set it up again.
On my Huawei watch 2 sport it loses connection and so the wear os app says the watch is disconnected. Bluetooth settings show the watch to be invisible and, as a result, smart unlock gets unconfigured and I have to set it up again. The watch battery discharges very quickly - probably constantly searching for the phone.
I reboot of both devices seems to fix it, for a while.
This is all since the Pie official update.
Does anyone have any fixes please?

No fixes but same problems here

I'm having the same issue also very frequently with WiFi dropping all the time. These two reasons are linked from what I been told. Google telling me to RMA. The pain of that

Mine has done this with my Gear S3 watch since I first got the phone a few months ago, it had me seriously considering returning it for a while. Sometimes it would just disconnect from the bluetooth, but often it would unpair causing me to have to go through the whole set up process again. It did this on Android O, various DP builds of P but so far (touch wood) has been good with the latest version of the Samsung software and Android P.

I'm having the same issues as well and currently searching for answers.

anybody having issues with wifi and mobile data (T-Mobile)

I'm getting tired of it, wifi disconnects and reconnects or flat out doesn't work, mobile data flat out doesn't work most times unless I reboot the phone for either of them to work. I'm rebooting about 4-5 times a day just to get either working. I'm at my wit's end and about to get rid of this thing as soon as I can.

I generally love this phone, but I'm seeing similar issues. WiFi says connected, but I don't get any data. I thought it was my network at first, but noticed other devices working. Tested network while my phone was acting like this, and my WiFi and network were working great.
Separately, my phone sometimes won't dial out. I use Google Voice, so I'm not sure if it's the phone or Google that's not working, but it's very frustrating. The dial screen comes up, then immediately disappears. No errors or anything to indicate that it ran into problems. The dial screen just flashes. Rebooting seems to fix that. But all very frustrating. Especially when I'm trying to call someone while driving. I don't want to have to look at the screen. I want to be able to tell the phone to call and know it's going to do it. Instead, I tell it to call, it confirms it will call, then nothing.

I'm getting the same problems and it's annoying the hell out of me I'm paying this phone off but I'm about to just ditch it buy a pocofone and just pay im this off separately or try to trade it in for a one plus 6T
