Ever since the Jelly Bean update the Google Voice function has been intermittently unavailable. If I keep canceling it out and opening it back up eventually it works. I did a factory reset and it didn't help. No one has posted about the issue so I wondered am I the only one? And is there a fix for it? Thanks, Jeff.
Note: Sometimes if I wait long enough the error that pops up says server unavailable.
App is called "Voice Search" by Google Inc and is version 2.1.4
You need to download "google search" that is google now. Both should be downloaded and in tts settings should be set to whatever you use. I use ivona because it sounds much better like a real voice.

Also every portion of the phone needs to be set to US english... the google now settings, tts settings, and the keyboard i believe....
It's not either of those. It's installed already and set up correctly. I even have english downloaded for offline use. I forgot to mention I'm all stock touchwiz never rooted, so there's no excuse for this issue. I don't know if the JellyBean data Keis put on my phone was corrupted somehow, or if everyone else has this issue but found a solution. That said does anyone have this problem or just me?

Well not everything gets spoken, but try to duplicate the issue again.... Ask it the same question over and over... ask it what time is it, it always reads that... then ask it who is the president of the united states, or what is the date.... all of those get read back... see if stumbles, and report back, and also report have u tried any resets or anything... stock jb?
I think I figured it out. My Smart Keyboard wants to use the voice and so did Google Voice Typing, so I unchecked the one I don't use and for the last minute I've had no issue. It will be a few days before I can be sure but I usually have this problem pretty frequently.

It's just "do a barrel roll." Unless saying google is supposed to open search for me.

Saying google while in google now makes it listen...
I was wrong about figuring this out by un-checking one of the voice keyboards in the keyboard menu. That solution worked out of coincidence.
I found that I could fix it every time I restarted; then I found I could go into airplane mode and back out to fix it; then I tried all the things airplane mode affected and found that I could turn off Bluetooth and it would work, and when I turned on Bluetooth it would stop working. I found this while sitting in my car which connects my Bluetooth to the radio and a microphone above my head. I will try to narrow the problem down further to see if any other Bluetooth situations cause the issue, and I will report back.
I've the the problem with bluetooth as well, but I literally just started experiencing the issue without bluetooth enabled about 5 minutes ago. No matter what I do Google can't connect to the server.

Ugh don't tell me that, I've even finally rooted this thing and tried roms but they still had the issue. Now the only other solution is to set in on fire and push it down a hill....That's how we had to deal with Yeller as well

Turns out it's something with my router's configuration. When I disabled wifi on the phone it started working. Anyone have any ideas what router settings might interfere with Google's voice recognition?
---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:05 PM ----------
Okay, after some Googling I setup port forwarding for port 19294 and now it's working. Not sure why this new router is blocking that port as none of the others I've used ever have...
I am experiencing this issue as well. At home on wifi, google voice comes on right away and listens. On the road (in the car and with bluetooth on) it keeps saying initializing. Today I will try voice recognition in the car with bluetooth turned off and will report back.
Is anyone else seeing the error message "Unfortunately Bluetooth has Stopped" pop up repeatedly, as often as every 1-2 minutes? This happens even when I'm not connected to a BT device. It started happening to me yesterday and it's driving me crazy.
Checking logcat, I see these messages: pastebin. I was wondering if it's a manifestation of the bug in this article at Android Police, but surely that has been fixed by now? I'm presently unrooted and totally stock so I'm thinking a factory reset might be my only option, unless someone can suggest something else?
Yes!
Exactly the same thing. Driving me nuts.
I've tried to trace to an app but no luck.
Also totally stock, unrooted.
(Telstra Australia image).
Have been putting off reset as long as I can.
I see you are in Oz also.. are you running Telstra stock image?
I spoke to their online 'help'.. who said that it would be an LG issue and to talk to them.. confirming that they believe LG are responsible for all the QA on their image.
I'm going to factory reset... and see what happens.
No, I have the international H815. I've had it for a couple of months and this just started happening yesterday.
Do you perchance have Garmin Connect installed, and talking to a Garmin device?
hmm... no.. I don't... (this sounds like a game of Guess Who).
My son was getting the same problem on his S3.. but associated it with Spotify. Once he uninstalled the app, the problem went away.
I did have Spotify... but uninstalling did nothing.
Just went through phone looking for 'bluetooth' stuff. Have uninstalled Fitbit, LG Health, IFTTT,
All smart settings are off.
Restarted,,, waiting for error.
I'm suspecting it will work ok... for a while.
I'm now wondering if this is a manifestation of this problem, as the OP was getting the same message in his log as I am seeing. If so this is pretty grim. I use the phone to listen to music and podcasts in the car all the time, so if this is going to keep happening then it's severely impacting my use of this phone. I guess we can only hope that LG come good with a software update that will address this, unless someone else has a workaround?
I'm also having the same problem, I cannot seem to pin it to a specific app. I've tried clearing the Bluetooth cache and even a complete factory reset and I am still getting the same issue, if someone has a fix please post it's driving me crazy

Did your phone do it from Day 1 or did it just start doing it at some random point in time?
Also, when you did a factory reset did you perchance use LG backup or something to save your settings?

Yes it's done it since day one when I got it (about a week ago) once I did a factory reset I set it up as a new phone and downloaded my apps from the play store, the only thing I didn't try was streaming music without any apps installed and just using Google play music to steam music via Bluetooth, without doing that it's hard to tell if it's a lg issue or a 3rd party app that is causing it

Me too, though SGS5 handset, and only started yesterday morning.
Telstra Australia image, stock unrooted, cleared blue tooth cache and data, removed all paired devices, removed battery....still no joy
Would be great to hear if anyone has found a way to resolve.
Thanks

have you guys maybe trackID installed? for me bluetooth was off but i had this problem that bluetooth has stopped and uninstalling trackID solved it.
maybe i could help you
No TrackiD for me.
I seem to be able to make the error appear when I'm scrolling down Facebook news feed.
No error when Bluetooth is off.. but that's not an option for how I use my phone.
I don't have TrackID installed either.
I did a factory install last night and let my apps reinstall overnight. I'm not getting the error this morning and was able to drive to work listening to podcasts with no disconnections. So it's "fixed", for now at least, though I fully expect that it will return at some point in the future.
If I do a factory reset will I lose root? Thanks in advance

Bit the bullet and did a factory reset last night, problem solved.
Appears it was a Telstra update that has caused the problem to several brands of phones.
were you rooted?
I want to do a factory reset but I'm rooted and don't want to lose it.
thanks

No, I was on stock Telstra modified firmware
use logcat to track the issue, it can be caused by bad data from apps, usually if you wipe the data it can be solved
try clear the bluetooth settings, it can be corrupt data
Factory reset, and restored from full LG Backup.
Haven't seen the issue for a couple of days.
I had this problem and found out the cause was Spotify, I uninstalled it and re-installed it and havent seen the issue for over a week now
The problem came back after a couple of weeks.. and is just constant.. even when factory reset back to stock and no apps installed.
Rooted phone. Froze 'Android Staten Webview'...believe issue resolved.
"Google has stopped" messages are driving me mad, had it for quite a while and assumed a fix would roll out as I report it every time.
Have tried Force Stop and clear cache and data on every Google app I can find, including Chrome.
One of the solutions I saw online was a factory reset, but rather try everything else first.
Anyone had the same and resolved it without a factory reset?
Redmi Note 5 Pro, not rooted, running Android 8.1 and Miui 9.6
Tia.
Same phone same issue, just drive 200 miles with the pop up coming up every 15 minutes on sat Nov, very annoying!
Also noticed "ok Google" isn't working via voice command anymore
Yep, can overlook pop-ups while it's in my hands, but car cradle and Waze is a real ball ache.
I don't use Ok Google.
What have you tried to fix it?

Only reboot and quick Google search so far, kids are keeping me busy atm. If you find fix please let me know though!
Fwiw was working fine the other day and nothing major had been updated, infact the only updates were Google drive and calender two days ago so not sure what's caused it.
Same issue here after updating to MIUI 9.6
I've been having the exact same error ever since I updated to Android Oreo a few days ago but on a Redmi 5 Plus device :/
same issue
only i haven't done any update as I was running on mobile data only. reported to miui but they want additional information because they cannot reproduce the issue
Excluding Google app from battery saving should solve this issue, at least for me it worked!
Hi, which Google app exactly, half my problem is I don't know which "Google app has stopped", what needs to be changed?

Google voice assistant, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox&hl=en
Just exclude from battery saving.
I don't use that app and my Battery Saving mode is off above 60%.
Just got another Google has stopped as I type and charge on 96%, so I don't know whats causing this.
Uninstall the updates to Google app. Something is causing this, I was getting this on Pixel Experience 8.1 as well, until I rolled back to prior version. Same for Android Messages, screen would just flicker black and would not open app properly until i rolled back to previous app version.
Thanks. Bro It works for me a simple updale

Lately when I've been asking Google to set a reminder it ALWAYS says "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that" and shows the attached screen in my attachment
Hey Google, remind me at 3pm of my haircut. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Hey, Google remind me at 4pm to put on pants.. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Download the assistant app. I know it sounds dumb but try it. I had a similar issue when I had my pixel 3 the one that comes on it sux u need the full one from the playstore. a Few built in apps are like that and it's stupid to me.

I downloaded Google Assistant from the Play Store. When I say Hey Google it appears to still open the stock google assistant app and gives me the same result when asking it to do something.
If I manually open the Google assistant app that I downloaded as soon as I say Hey Google it just stops doing anything

Judging by the screenshot you didn't set it up fully yet. You're still showing the "GET STARTED" option. Did you go through all the steps to 100% complete the setup? That's what it looks like you need to do.

That getting started comes up every time. I've had this phone for almost a year and used Google Assistant all of the time. It's just recently that this issue has come up.
I'm going to uninstall what I can related to Google Assistant, clear data of what I can't and sign out of everything and then sign back in and see if that helps
EDIT: uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing data from some Google services, signed of my Google account linked to assistance and verything seems to be fine now
Back to doing it again...fml
You could try booting to safe mode and see if the problem persists. If not, there's an app interfering. If the problem is still there in safe mode, then that's something glitchy about the Google setup.

I haven't tried the reboot into safe mode yet. Sometimes Google Assistant gets its crap together and works fine and then other times it needs more information. At this moment it's working again. Once it acts up I'm going to do the safe mode way and see if that works.

I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Verizon. I am using open_gapps-arm-10.0-nano-20201013. I was previously using open_gapps-arm-9.0-nano-20200422.
I was previously using lineage-16.0-20201001-nightly-hltetmo-signed. I am now using lineage-17.1-20201008-nightly-hltetmo-signed.
On 16 I was able to say "Hey Google" and "Ok Google" and Assistant would respond. On 17.1 any time I try to enable Ok Google I get "Trouble connecting. Check your connection and try again." I have tried over and over with no luck. I tried disabling the Google app and re-enabling it to see if it would force an update and fix the problem. No luck.
Anyone else having this issue? Any suggestions?

Everyone else has Assistant perfectly working? I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything multiple times with the same issue. I even updated my phone 10.22.2020
