[Q] Google Now voice setup error - G4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Anyone getting this? When setting up voice for Ok Google its giving me "Can't use the microphone. Restart your device" Reboot did not resolve. Only At&t apps disabled. Using Nova or stock launcher still causes erro. I can talk on phone and use speaker phone and if I press google search voice works. I assume restore to factory would resolve but this is my 3rd unit and sick of restoring the device. Thoughts?

Worked perfectly on my G4..
Sadly still no Google Voice Now support in Dutch..

[Q] Voice Search does not recognize first word/command.

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.

Anyone have recent problems with Voice Search?

Voice Search was running just fine, then one day it started acting up (it would just freeze) I use the app called Assistant, which runs through Google Voice Search I assume because it was also freezing up when Voice Search started acting up. I tried un-installing then re-installing voice search, but that was a no go. I re-flashed the ROM I use (FreeGS3) to see if that was the problem, and it was not.
No...But that sounds familiar.

I've been having issues with it saying "no server connection" in full bars of 3g...but nothing like what you're running into. I suppose it could be your ROM, but I don't have that much experience. PA worked fine for me while I had it.

"Ok google" keeps asking my passcode

Ok so I'm trying to get my pixel 2 xl to unlock straight to the assistant with the "ok google" voice command, bypassing the lockscreen but it keeps asking for my passcode, even though I have set the "Unlock with Voice Match" switch on in the assistant settings. I also retrained my voice and still no luck.
Any suggestions? it seems to be a bug or something.

Don't know if this will help or not. Have you tried clearing the Google app data and cache. Reboot, then try again. Just spitballing.
I'm now having the same problem. Seems like it happened right after I signed up for the Google play services beta though. Did you sign up for that as well?

No I did not sign up for that.
Just turn ooff and back on the ok google from any screen and voice unlock on the assistant settings, then retrain a couple of times, try using various tones when doing so
Mine has been doing that as well. Never had this issue before
I've always had this issue. Works after delete voice training, then redo it. But, it reverts back to asking for passcode.

Ditto. It drives me crazy! It never seems to recognise my voice. On the plus side, I got the Google Home Mini free, and despite being an Alexa girl I decided to keep it to play around (and compare with). So if I'm trying to set phone reminders and the like while I'm my living room, it gets picked up by the Mini and a stubborn phone doesn't matter.
...though it's still a pain anywhere else of course. Especially if you're out and about and just want to talk to the phone instead of typing. Frankly it always seems to pick the most inconvenient times possible to decide it doesn't know who I am. Grrrr....

microphone problem

Hi everyone. My nokia 3.2's microphone stops working every now and then. but it doesn't seem to be a normal problem as it works perfectly for my phone calls, everyone can hear me. it just doesn't work when I try to record my voice on applications e.g sending voice message on social media, making voice command with google assistant. it won't work until I restart my phone, then it's fine for a couple of hours, then it stops working. the problem started when I had Android 9, I updated it to Android 10, I even reseted it but none of them has solved the problem. do you think rooting my phone might help?
I would appreciate if you could help me.

I had the very same problem, To fix this go to settings > Google > Account services > Search, Assistant and Voice > Google Assistant > Voice Match and then turn off Hey Google and Delete your voice model if you have one, then restart your Phone. This permanently fixed the issue for me so hopefully it does for you too.

Question Bugs - Voice Dictation & Lock screen Text

Hi all!
I got my RM8P yesterday. I really like the device, but definitely see the software lackings that everyone has mentioned.
My current bugs:
1. I copied my data from my Pixel 6 Pro to the RMP8. It also copied the lock screen text I had "My Google Pixel 6 Pro, *****es". So when I go into personalized setting to try to change this text, it won't let me. When I click the option, it just goes back to the Settings menu.
2. More importantly, my voice dictation/voice to text functionality is now broken. It was fine until this afternoon when I updated a bunch of apps in Play Store. Now, no voice dictation is working for any app. I've tried every possible app and rebooting. The OK Google still works so it's "hearing" my voice in general.
Any feedback?
Thanks!
EDIT: I figured out that enabling Google Assistant (Hey Google) broke the voice dictation. Strange that it breaks it.

I was about to tell you that disabling hey google fixed the dictation thing. The first os layer is funny af, it does that and doesn't carry the swipe between apps gesture. And a bunch of things, I worked the hey google with the swipe from a corner gesture tbh I don't use Google assistant that much but still it was a thing

I don't use hey Google assistant too often, but I do use it occasionally. It's just strange that I have to choose between enabling that functionality and enabling voice dictation. I guess I'll choose the voice dictation and give up Google assistant or enable it when I feel I need to use it at times. I'm not sure it's a Red Magic thing as it may be a broader Android thing.

Pretty sure it's only a redmagic thing. Their support has been largely useless when I attempted to alert them to this issue.

Hello, I have Alexa installed as the main assistant, if you select it as the default transcription program, it already works for you to transcribe messages. The failure after several tests I have realized that when you select Google as an assistant it stops working, the mobile does not listen to you. I have already opened several incidents on the Magic network page but they only tell me that I formatted the mobile.
