Ok google "always listening" doesn't work. Any advice? - Nexus 5X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

How does this work with the phone screen off?
I have trained the voice model and activated the settings below, but it still won't work from any screen other than a home screen or the Google app.

You have to have trusted voice on to unlock when the screen is off. The phone does answer me from anywhere in my kitchen. lol

Actually trusted voice doesn't need to be on for this to work. I have the settings the same as before and a reboot fixed it.
Guess I just needed to restart my computer . It's 2015 and we still don't know why this fixes software issues.

If i'm not mistaken , it will work when your device is charging with screen off ☺

"Ok Google" with screen off doesn't work for me on any AOSP 7.x ROM (tried Open Gapps). Is this normal or is there a fix?

Screen Off Animation Gone

I'm not sure at what point today this stopped working but whenever I hit the power button to turn my screen off now the screen just goes off. No more fancy tube TV effect.
Anyone know how I could go about re-enabling it?
I'm rooted running the most recent CM9 Kang rom. Let me know if you need anymore info.
Everything else is working fine.
Turning off window animations disables it.

Any chance you disabled it in the settings? I don't use CM9 but I know CM did have a feature with removal of that animation.
I thought I may have disabled it earlier so I looked all over for an option to enable and cannot find one.

Would it be possible to have a contextually aware mod for the S3?

The new Moto X is said to have contextually aware abilities so you can say 'okay google' anytime and it will listen to what you say. It would be similar to Google Glass.
I was wondering if it would be possible to get something like this for the S3?
Isn't that Google now? Which our devices already have? That's the command phrase.

Yes, but with this you don't have to even touch the phone to activate Google now.

. Take note of the only option with the check... Don't know if anybody would want the battery drain associated with your phone constantly listening every time your screen is on so honestly I don't see anybody putting any effort into this...
Hm I wonder if having it always listening is going to drain the battery on the Moto X.
It depends how they implement it...if it's like wifi connections with the constant polling, then yes.

Google Now - Setup Problems

I was wondering if anyone else here has had problems with setting up the Google now feature. On my note 4 I'm able to set up the Google now by saying "Google now" three times in settings and it recognizing my voice. However when doing so with the Tab S it says for me to say Google now... yet its like it doesn't hear anything and doesn't register my voice at all. Googled and searched the forums but haven't been able to stumble across a solution.

So someone at least mention if you're having the same problems or not. Are you able to set up OK Google voice commands with no problems?
Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk
I can say OK Google from the Homescreen without problem.
And also no need to train.

*update went into app manager and turned off/disabled Google. Turned back on and now everything works as it is supposed to. Maybe this will help someone else that runs into this problem in the future.

S-Pen Software not working properly

Not sure why but the software for the S-pen doesn't work for the always on display and the pop up that came up when you took the pen out of the phone when the display was already on. It doesn't come up either but the phone makes the noise that it's supposed to when the S-pen is removed. I'm guessing I updated some Samsung apps that affected this. Anybody have this happen. The pen still works when I open up Samsung Note manually or hit draw from a screen shot.
Try to trun off always on display and see if that works.

Also check your S pen settings. I turned the screen off memo option off and phone reacted as you described.

Yes, also got it, but as you said no AOD
To add some another watch faces
wipe health data and huawei mobile services then
change your location to UK using any VPN app like tunnelBear
Didn't the watch get an AOD option with 1.0.8.34 update?

try that way but sorry did not work any other ways ?
My one is sitting on 1.0.8.60 for some time now. no AOD. If I remember correctly, I didn't get any 1.0.8.34 firmware at all, it jumped over the AOD version 1.0.8.34 from an earlier one. WTH huawei is doing here? I am waiting for this AOD for ages
