Hi All,
When I use "ok google" to do a command for example say text. It would text once and then another time when I unlock my phone. Similar issue with everything else be it calling, setting a timer (once on the watch and once on the phone when i unlock) etc. Not exactly sure what the issue is - be it android wear update or the phone itself or a setting I don't know about. So what happens is I've been having this issue ever since I got a new phone.
Any advice or answers would be helpful.
Thanks

Anyone else getting "OK Google" on their screen whenever the face illuminates?
I've only had the watch a few days but last night I noticed that I'm getting "OK Google" across the top of the screen whenever I turn my wrist to look at the watch. I can't actually say "OK Google" to access the voice input prompt but the text is still there. It fades just before the entire face fades but it's very annoying and seems more like a glitch than a feature. Anyone else having this issue and if so how did you fix it?

Thanks for taking the time to post those links. Awesome that none came up in a search. Reading the first few words of the first links gives my solution or at least tells me what triggered it. I activated Ambient Mode to see the face more and am considering disabling that anyway since it seems to annihilate battery life so far. Seems that disabling that setting will correct the 'problem' w/o any additional fuss. Also, I was coming back to post that I was finally able to say 'OK Google' when the little message came up and got the actual voice input prompt and after this it seems as though it's now gone. Another user said something about just saying OK Google when it came up and it went away but I tried this repeatedly prior to creating this thread and was unable to replicate the outcome. It seems so far that I was finally able to do so so I've got a few options plus more links to research if I decided to pursue it.
Thanks again!

Curiosity got the better of me so I went back to try to recreate your results and I think the mistake was that I didn't search this subforum. I think I searched the themes & apps section (I was doing watch faces when I discovered it) and came up with nothing searching that subforum. I started to create a new thread and realized that that probably wasn't the best section for it and decided last minute to create it in the main 360 thread. That would explain why I didn't find anything useful in my search. D'oh!
Mystery solved. lol
This has been covered in multiple threads but there seems to be a constant confusion on how these steps are actually performed. Here are the steps to disable the "OK Google" toast message on any Android Wear wearable with a stock face.
Notes:
- These steps were performed on a freshly reset/paired watch. I thought I captured the "paired" message but was too slow.
- Apparently I can't say "OK Google" without sounding like I'm also eating a banana. Sorry.
1. Once you've paired your watch and have access to the clock, speak, "OK Google".
2. Clear the "listening" microphone screen with a swipe.
3. Turn your display off.
4. Turn your display on again and repeat until the message goes away (should be 5 times).

This works for me, but only for a day or so. Since I don't use the command all that often (since apparently I only have a speech impediment when I speak to Google), is there ANY way of disabling this permanently? I'll root my watch (LG G Watch R - they have to figure out a better name for that), I'll ROM it, whatever. I just use a very minimal (like Movado minimal) face and the ok Google appearing or me having to day ok Google a bunch of times every day is really, really grating on my nerves.

some patterns i've noticed:
- when you change watch faces it comes back
- when an update is pushed, it comes back (watch or android wear)
i haven't noticed that it comes back without one of these occurring.

I've had the same face on for weeks, and it was last updated weeks/months ago.

Are you sure it's your devices and not you? I find "Okay Google" to be awkward to pronounce, especially several times in a row, due to the "k" and double "g" combo. Wish we could change the hotword. I just touch the watch...find this to be easier and more reliable. Once I do that, I find the boice recognition to be surprisingly accurate, even with names, foreign-sounding places, etc. Does your watch recognize voice if you activate it by touch? If not, you may have a microphone problem. Also, if you have an accent or something, or a stutter, I'd try having someone else say it to see if it's the device or it's you. And also, make sure the watch is lit up first and out of ambient mode. I don't think it works when the watch is in low power mode. As for not working on the phone, I had that issue on the Note3 as well when using Nova Launcher, worked fine in TouchWiz. But I'm pretty sure the watch keyword detection is not dependant on the phone, since I can activate mine even when it's disconnected from my phone.
I'm having issues with my OK Google too. It's like my watch microphone isn't working. I can't do any voice dictation into the watch. It just says "Sorry didn't catch that" when I talk to it. It worked at one point and seems to work sporadically. Now it doesn't work at all.
Not sure for how long but I think it's something like 1 week that voice commands don't work any more for me.
They are opened as web searches instead.
eg. I used to say "OK Google, set a timer for 5 minutes" and the timer would start. Now it opens web link suggestion...
Same with most other voice commands that used to be really useful.
Anyone having same problem?
Hi!
I bought one sony sw3 3 days ago, and have the same problem...I say the voice comands and it always do the search... anyone solved this? In my note 2 the comands are working fine, like call someone, send a text...
In the watch it always makes the search sugestions.
Thanks
Hi everyone,
I'm using OnePlus 3 for 4 months and through every update (3.2.1 --> 3.2.2 --> 3.2.4 --> 3.2.6 --> 3.2.7) I've experienced this strange issue.
Sometimes (like once in 2 days) the voice search, the one that normally activates with "Ok Google", self-activates and waits for a command, eventually saying "I didn't understand".
It happens when the screen is on or when the phone is charging, usually when there are other noises (people talking at work, television, etc).
Did it happen to anyone, too? I never experienced this behaviour in none of my previous phones, I even tried restoring voice recognition but the problem is still there.
Thanks in advice!

I never had the issue on my LG G2 but it happens now. Also happens often on my Galaxy Tab S2 really often. I think its a Google thing and they have made things too sensitive.
Go into Google Now, Settings, Voice, "Ok Google" detection. Turn off From Any Screen.

Well, actually that's not a solution, more like a "workaround"... I like the "Ok Google" From Any Screen feature, I use it once in a while.
It's like asking "I have bad call quality, what can I do?" and receive "stop doing voice calls" as an answer...
Update: I flashed 3.5.4 yesterday, same issue experienced today.
I tried to install google assistant, but it showing "This account is not eligible for the feed"
Hello there guys,
i've recently been looking for a way to use something else rather than "Ok" to summon the assistant, and i found out that Google actually released the "Hey Google" hotword for it.
Before it, i've been able to use the assistant using my voice just fine, but when i've been prompted to retrain the assistant, it asked me to record 4 things (Ok, Hey, Ok, Hey, as far as i know, cause i've never gotten to the "hey" part) instead of 3 (Ok 3 times).
Problem is, when i say "Ok Google", nothing happens. It just stays there, waiting for me to say it, even though i did. And the only solution is to revert the Google app to the factory version, retrain the assistant with the 3 "Ok Google", and then re-update the Google app. Point is, if i even try to retrain the assistant while the Google app latest version is installed, i get stuck, and have to re-do all the process.
Is there any way i can solve this?
I have a OnePlus 5T running Android 8.0.0.
Thank you so much.
I've also been prompted by Google via notification to train the assistant using "Hey Google" as well... but the same bug occurs.
