So originally it started the Google voice search, but after reassigning it to the tasker helper I can't get it back to voice search. I've tried reseting app preferences.
Now the tasker helper doesn't work anymore either.
Any ideas?
A restart fixed it, sorry for spam.

Ashaman's mod had the option to re enable universal search in Google Search. I prefer being able to use search to search for apps, contacts etc. I'm wondering if there is any to not have it show results by default when opening search. For example, when I open search, it'll show most people contacted and my last searches. I rather it didn't.
I cleared the data under app management and that seemed to do the trick. Except as soon as I searched for something that same list was back. Any way to get rid of it?
Currently when I hit the action button on my bluetooth headset it opens svoice. I would not have a problem with this if svoice actually worked but ir doesnt and so I would like to set the action button to google voice search. Can someone please help me with this. My phone is not rooted and I would prefer it stay that way.

try to find svoice in apps list and clear defaults for it?
I'd like to know too.
I got a new hx550 headset and the default app to launch is voice DIALER, which I do not want.

The article you link to says that this no longer works, but he is mistaken. The trick is that the activity has been renamed.
Follow all the steps in the article up to installing Bluetooth Launch, but there is no item called Voice Search. It is now called "Google Search" and the activity is "com.google.android.googlequicktextbox.VoiceSearchActivity". It was the 5th item in the list for me.
Also, I had to actually go into the app list and "disable" the SVoice application to get it to prompt me to use Bluetooth Launch. After that was set as the default, I was able to turn SVoice back on.
Hi all i don't know if this is the correct place to post this but i am having some issues with google now on the moto 360.
i am using tasker,autovoice and iftt to open my garage door and control my nest thermostat. when using google now on the phone everything works fine. if i say "ok google its hot" it send a sms to iftt then turns the nest on to 65. when i do it on the 360 it just returns google now search results, i have the newest googlenow api,takser. i have never been able to get this to work since day one. Does anyone have any success stories or ideas of what i might be doing wrong?
I control most things in my home using my Moto 360 and google now/voice search. Google Now API + Autovoice + Tasker works 100% of the time for me, but it takes time and a lot of study to get things to work perfectly.
In my setup, a single javascript triggered by Tasker sends the voice command to my HA server for processing. Then my HA server sends an HTTP response that is read back by Tasker. This way I know what's been performed and get a voice confirmation. I can also query states too.
I would carefully read the google now api thread on how to fix your issue (it's been covered there 4--5 times now).

I have tasker and autovoice and google now api working perfect but for some reason it does not recognize my voice commands from moto360, any idea why?
I have the same question.. Does anybody now how to get it work?
Or when dutch voice will be supported
And i heard something about auto wear? What is it and can it do? And where can i download it?
As far as I know, the Google now API on Android Wear devices is kind of locked down right now. The only option I've heard of requires root and an xposed module to get autovoice to recognize commands from the Moto 360. However, if I may be so rude. I'm developing an app called weartasker which might help you out for now. The free version let's you launch 3 tasker tasks from you watch while the pro version of course has some more options, including (basic) OK Google support. It allows you to say "OK Google, start task 1/2/3" to launch a task of your touch. By far not as fancy as the power of full autovoice but it does work right now, please check it out here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cuberob.weartasker if you're interested. Hope posting this link in context is oké!
Not yet...
Lots of Google Now commands don't work on Android Wear, Nest appears to be one of them even tho you can now control you Nest with "Ok Google" commands from your phone. I'm sure there is a way to set up a workaround, but as stated in another post it'll take a bit of legwork.
I could have sworn that before the update I could use the ok google detection anywhere (after I enabled it search settings). I tried it again, and it's grayed out in the Search, Voice settings in Google Search. Only the top main option to enable OK google voice allows me to toggle it on or off.
Are you sure you weren't using Google Now launcher?

Disable S Voice in app management, reboot, then go back to Google Now settings. It shouldn't be grayed out anymore.
Woot! Your response led me on the right path. I am and was using the Google now launcher, but the reason I kept referring to Google Search (which is actually just called Google in the app store) is because I thought it was a separate app responsible for the search functionality and that it hooked into the Now launcher. So I uninstalled the standalone Google app, rebooted phone, and now the option is no longer grayed out in the voice detection section of the Now launcher settings.
I think it's strange that Google allows the Google search app to coexist and override the built in Now launcher search functionality (or at the very least seems to pull the standalone Google search app's settings when I try and configure them through the Now launcher)
I'm sooo confused right now. What I uninstalled was just an update. The "Google" search app is still installed and asking me to update it, which means it came built in to the firmware. Aarrghh!
I updated it, and the option for OK Google functionality anywhere in the phone (different apps, screen off, etc) now became grayed out again. So its' at least linked to that it seems. I also don't get the ability to train the OK Google voice recognition (also grayed out) with the updated Google (search) app. The stock, original firmware version of the app does allow it. Aggravating!
Yup I noticed the same thing, the ability seems broken after the update.

I followed the advice to disable the s voice app through the application manager, rebooted... And forgot to check it till today. Yes! Its working. I'm 99% sure it was disabling s voice that did it, and 1% possibility it was an a background google update... So I'm leaning toward the s voice fix.
Thank you to the 2nd poster above with the recommendation. Fixed it.
Hmm. My svoice is enabled and I am able 'ok google' from anywhere. Including the lock screen. I haven't actually used svoice since the update so I will try it and then see if ok google still works from everywhere.
I can 't force stop or disable S-Voice and OK Google options are grayed out. Any ideas?
In the past I was not able to disable s voice through the application manager, but this time I was.
A couple of possibilities I can think of. In the s voice settings, disable any available options that may be enabled, such as activating it via home button, etc. (Don't recall all the various settings now because it's gone completely from my application settings section)
Also, go into the Security settings of the phone and make sure s voice is not listed as a Device Administrator. I've noticed that apps can't be disabled or uninstalled as long as they're listed in this section as device admins. As usual reboot after just in case, and check if you can disable it then.
I haven't modified anything on the phone other than manually disabling a bunch of apps through application manager and replacing touchwiz with the Google Now home screen.

A thread to discuss various google assistant issues and resolutions. If in wrong section please move
I have had issues on global rom with Google Assistant and now when I have used Lineage and RR I still have issues. On RR Ok google works from lock screen and in OS. But I get google voice search instead of assistant. I got the option as a notification to test the new assistant but when I press the notification it disappears and nothing happens. This is what it looks like to me. Any solution to this so you have assistant instead of voice search? For example, you cannot use routines with voice search.
I had the same problem with flash of XASP. Problem with my home lights .
You must to link your Google account, even if it is linked and do the voice match assistant even if you have already done it.
