The support page for it actually lists the Note 4 as a supported device but I don't see the option to enable it

Sounds like that is for all screens? I want it to work even when the screen is off
I also have S Voice disabled. It's one of the first things I disabled actually

Well that's your problem then. It's not a Motorola X with an always listening core. It causes a wakelock on our phones. Download an app from the play store if you truly need that function. Other than that, ok google on every screen works fine for the rest of us.
The support page mentions this...
Always-on: Say "Ok Google" whether your screen is on or off. This setting is only available for Nexus 6, Nexus 9, and Samsung Note 4 devices.
That's why I'm asking. Fine it doesn't work but it clearly says there that the phone is supported

It worked for me on kitkat but not on lollipop
Same here, worked until the lollipop update.
If you look a little closer to the setting you can see it did change in Lollipop. The document for OK Google is for KitKat.
On the Note 4 5.0.1 it now says always on, from any screen or when charging, the option previously for some other devices and not when screen is off. So it is working as intended in Lollipop. As a side note the response is quicker than it was in KitKat.
Mine worked in kit Kat and is still working on LP from any screen and from phone off. Have not checked the settings to see if it is greyed out but have not had to since it works.
Hmm... mine are not selectable. Don't want to mess with the settings since it is working.

I checked all settings am I doing something wrong or has google taken this feature out?
First off, how many of these threads to we need? Seen at least 10 in the last few days.
Second of all, it still works for me. Google has not taken this feature out.
I don't even see it in my settings anymore it just disappeared.

Do you use Light flow? I have noticed toggling "Accessibility" off and on when Light flow glitches out for me, or using Swype seems to kill hotword detection. Rebooting always seems to bring it back though
Mine disappeared when I enabled the ICS Google search widget in Nova...
Anyone using light flow to control the led notifications? I was wondering if there is any alternatives because the market reviews say it kills the battery life?

I've been using it since S3 till Note 2 now that don't feel it drains too much battery. Anyway, the battery life is very good on Note2.
I tried installing it but upon setting it up, it said it can't be activated together with the Air-view function...therefore I have uninstalled it.
Can anyone please confirm whether we can use both Light Flow together with Air-view?
Damn yeah i get the air view and light flow issue too
Maybe someone will make an alternative
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
Light control works.
I don't know why, but it turns the TalkBack.accessbility option on and off during install,
which forces you to turn air view off.
However, it doesn't actually NEED talkback.
I turned airview on after the install finished, and was able to change my my notification colors (changed missed call from red to purple)
- Frank
I get the spoken "Folder open" or "Folder closed" when using light flow and opening folders. Talkback is disabled and it doesn't do this with any other features.
Only fix was to disable Light flow which eliminated the problem.
Install liteflow then go in to settings & turn Air-view back on...Now both work fine
Perhaps you can try Light Manager which can be downloaded from Google Play.

Yes...I'm using light flow and air view together....just disable air view first when first prompted...and then go into settings again later and you can enable air view again....

The battery killing is specific to some versions of the s3 where we work around some really bad bugs in the led driver.
It shouldn't affect the note 2 though.
At the moment the airview suggestion of switching back on is the best I know of (I had that reported from a beta tester with a note 2) - there's a reference to that on our support page - http://www.folioflow.com/ff/page/website/lightflow/pageId/2171
The main issues I'm aware of are the talkback and swype issues. I've offered me help to swype as they are aware it's an issue with their app and have recreated the issue themselves.
I've sent some code to Samsung regarding the talkback "folders open" issue and can recreate it with any app that uses accessibility services.

First of all, you MUST pop up a notification during install that air view can immmediately turned on after install.
I've seen several people post that when they saw the 'turn off air view' box, they immediately aborted the install and get a refund.
You must let them know, before it happens, that this is (for now) normal.
Secondly, the bug implies that the talkback bug is an ICS issue, so I'm not sure why any Note II users are having the problem.
(I don't have this problem, although I'm not exactly sure what folder people are opening to trigger the problem. App folder?)
- Frank
For me, it happens any time I open a folder on a homescreen.
Sent from my GNex using smoke signals.
Also happens if you slide your finger on the homescreen page dots. You get "talked back" the page number.
Swype-alike "Continuous Typing" in Samsung Keyboard also gets disabled if you use any kind of accessibility apps.
I was actually so frustrated with the talk back feature I uninstalled this app. I might install it again.
Dev. you should really consider telling people this, because I'm sure there are others who were like me and said "oh no! Talk back is working even though I turned it off" and just uninstalled it.
It happened to me on my home screen folders.
So does anyone notice a battery drain on their devices while using this app? Of course I'm referring to people who have a Note 2.
EDIT: Nope, I turned Air View back on and I'm still getting that annoying folder open and folder closed voice. I even turned on talk back and turned it back off! haha. I have to uninstall this until this issue gets fixed. On my home screen I use folders all the time, and it's rather annoying to hear.
I've removed talkback and changed airview back on and is now working 100%. Not sure does it drain battery since have used it from start. I get 6-8hrs screen on time. Gotta love Bright Pink and Cyan.

Doesn't your phone still tell you when a folder is open or closed on your home page? It did for me .

Fix for this is to disable all Samsung TTS, S Voice and Google text-to-speech. I'm not sure does it work with disabling only one or two, haven't tried.

Just like the title says, am I the only one to have an overly sensitive lock screen? Using AOSB ROM and whenever I'm using the pattern lock screen and I want to unlock the device, halfway thru I'll be cut off. At first I thought maybe its because I have disabled the ability to see the pattern, so I enabled the ability to see if there's any difference and sure enough I'm still getting cut off while I'm inputting the password. I have the same ROM for my Galaxy Note 2 and Samsung Tab 2 7.0 and its not appearing in either devices. Using this tablet for its 4th day so far so I'm not sure if it's a device issue or because I did something to my tablet.

I just recently updated my tab s 10.4 to lollipop and noticed that when unlocking the screen the playstore comes up. Is there anyway to disable this "feature"? It's quite annoying. I've looked around in the settings and found nothing....
It's not a feature it requires you to update Google services!
Wish it were that easy... I was kidding about it being a feature. Anyhow all updates have been done. It doesn't happen each time I unlock... seems to only happen after an extended screen off time.

After setting up my smart lock I have noticed it not working sometimes. When this happens if I go into security and smart lock after I put in my pin I just have a blank white screen where the smart lock menu should be. But here is the weird thing. I have tried restarting several times and it does not help. But sometimes it just shows back up on its own and starts working again. Then after a while it's gone again. This is driving me crazy! Anyone got a suggestion?
Thanks,

Does your smart lock also stop working when the menu isn't there ?
Seems to. I notice it mostly in the car. I have set my Bluetooth FM transmitter as trusted device. So when I get into the car, the transmitter connects turning on Android Auto and I'm greeted with the Android Auto home page. When Smart Lock acts up, I have to touch the finger scanner to unlock phone to see Android Auto home page.

Just rebooted the phone because phone was not reliably staying connected to WiFi despite strong wifi signal. Rebooted phone, wifi reconnected with no issue. However, all options for Smart Lock have disappeared again.

Nope. No root here. Simply stock. Only had the phone a few weeks. I don't see a need to root.
It's interesting to see this possibly effect rooted / non rooted phones alike. Definitely a bug on Google's side.
Googling this indicates it's a bug that goes back about a year. I never saw it with my Z Play, only the Force 2. But I believe Z Play is 7.0. The Force 2 is 7.1.1.
How long has 7.1.1 been out?

Don't know how long this will last. But I found out if you go under security> Trust agents and turn off "Smart Lock (Google)" and "Smart Lock (Moto)" Reboot and then go turn them back on everything comes back.

Looking into it on Google groups that seems like the temp fix for a lot of users. Google is supposedly aware of the issue and is working on a fix. It has something to do with their servers. I had this problem with my S8, and Nexus 5X. Not having this problem with my Note 8 and Z2.
