You have to enable that in GA settings. It is off by default. Search settings for "unlock with voice match". There is a toggle for it.
Yes that toggle is on already, I've retrained the voice module a few times also. Still no luck

I've tried it with s voice both on and off. when I first turn it on after a reboot, it doesn't train the voice model, but it says it's on but doesn't work. It then turns itself off, and trying to turn it on results in the voice model training opening , then saying it completed successfully, then turning its self back off.
Help?
No one else has experienced this?
To shut it off...i think thats what u looking for?
Go to Google. .sertings...voice, then turn off voice detection

I'm trying to turn it on, but it turns it's self back off with no explanation. physically moves the slider back to the off position before my eyes. It's gone back to just being grey now, though

If you read the original post, it says I've tried with s voice and without
This really isn't unique to Lollipop, as it does this exact thing on mine which is still on kitkat. Sometimes I will hear the tone acknowledging the ok google, but will immediately hear another tone. Often the screen doesn't even turn on. Even more often it just never works, although it works pretty perfectly with the screen on.
It has nothing to do with disabling svoice, although it probably is related to Samsung's implementation of svoice. Once in a while, thE phone will fail to even acknowledge an ok google request, only to sometime later say, "if you're trying to say something I didn't get that." This seems to imply the microphone is locked in the listen position, but isn't working.
Having lots of difficulties with "OK Google" on this watch. Bluetooth stays connected fine and so does wifi because i'm getting all my notifications instantly and it doesnt say that im disconnected. When I say OK Google the prompt comes up to speak...but only like 4 of the 30 times I tried did it actually work and not show the cloud symbol. I restarted the watch a couple times and the same thing happens, i've also done a factory reset since purchasing the watch 4 days ago. Thoughts? Thanks.

I found it to be very hit or miss as well.

I've not had it work once yet. The mic works as if I manually launch it everything seems fine.
I've tried restarts, factory resets & all the above. I'm pretty close to returning in all honesty as the voice launch is a huge deal for me!
I use my Huawei Watch with a OnePlus One on stock COS12.1 and have the same problem.
A lot of times when I use the watch to say "Okay Google" it will tell me it's disconnected. The only work-around I found was to quickly wake up the phone and it would start working right away. It seems like the internet pauses if my phone has been idle too long. I receive notifications in real time so I don't know what's really causing it.
I had the same problem with the huawei and a dutch HTC one M8.
The problem was gone after changing "Google voice typing primary language" from dutch in english.
And teach Google the sound of my voice in "OK Google" detection =>> From any screen.
Try turning off the restricted data for google app and google play services under Data Usage in settings.

I find it very hard for it to recognise my Australian accent. However, when I put on an American accent it works 100% of the time!
Any way of fixing that?

Did you try going into Google Settings on your phone? There's an option to retrain the voice model in there.

HI mate, yes I've done that countless times to no avail unfortunately. It works fine on my phone, but it's like retraining the voice model has no effect on the Huwaei Watch.

Dang, I was wondering about that. Sorry!
I don't know if this is just me but I cant seem to get this damn feature to work. I've trained my voice to this thing a hundred times and still it won't recognize it. I have to say it 3 or 4 times and finally, once I scream it, it might work. I look like a damn fool. Is this how it's supposed to work? By the time it does work, I could have picked the phone up and done what i was asking manually. What about when youre driving, you ask?
More than not, in the unlikely event that it will work, the phone remains locked until I enter my password. I've set the unlock-by-voice to "on" and still it will never work. What's the point if I'm driving and when it finally does recognize me, I have to pick it up and unlock it?
Has anyone else had these issues?
I'm left thinking that if Google was really pushing Google Assistant as the next big thing, they've got A LOT of work to do.
Nah. It even recognize my voice in noisy room. Although not every command would heard perfectly if its too noisy. But in a normal siatuation, it pick up 95-99% of my command and do it properly

Never had an issue with the Assistant. Works in 98% of cases. Could it be that the microphone on the phone is defect?
I don't think so. It seems like once it's woken up, it acts better. The super annoying part is when the phone hears me but requires me to input my unlock code. why wouldn't it just wake up?

"hey goooogo" "Hey! Ok!" Lol
Also using "Hey Google" which works a treat, by passes lock screen, and has a sweet voice!
I have the same problem. Sometimes it takes forever to activate, and sometimes it doesn't listen when it does. I'm also having constant gps issues. May rma soon

You have to go into Google Now>Settings>Devices>Phone>Unlock With Voice Match
That should take care of the issue.

PROBLEM SOLVED
Mate 20X (EVR-AL00; Build no. 9.0.0.136). I left my phone at home while downloading the new games via our Wi-Fi. But when I got back, I noticed that it has not downloaded any more data since I left it.
The culprit? The option Stay connected when device sleeps under the battery settings is DISABLED (neither ON nor OFF). Anyone else has this experience? What can be done about it?

@the_passerby5981 I figured it out, and boy your going to hate sending yours back, I was right, it is tied to something. I kept thkinking and kept coming back to this thread knowing you and I were missing something, and I found it from your screenshot and others, then tested it on mine and bingo. The reason its disabled is because it is tied to the SIM card. So that setting is tied to a sim card, and it didnt work on yours or mine because we were both testing it out without a SIM, and as soon as I put mine in to see if I was right, it enabled to turn on or off.

BUG FOUND! (Problem solved).
Android 8 had the option under WLAN and option to disable staying connected to WLAN and MOBILE as separate.
In Android 9, they are baked together under Battery. Thus, Stay awake when device sleeps gets DISABLED WHEN NO SIM IS INSERTED.

Mine was checked on but a good one to know. Need a good week to really go thru the settings and get them set how you like. Like a maze with secret passages.

That's really strange have you ever restarted the phone since the new update. If that doesn't work you can try to reset all settings and see if that works there's no reason why yours is blocked and other people's aren't unless you have some kind of aggressive battery manager or something.

Resetting the settings did nothing. Gonna give a shot at resetting the phone. I didn't tinker with any other settings coz I wanted the phone to be up and running at once. It only happened that I hit a snag with this issue.

Yes I have the same Phone and build number but I can toggle the "stay connected when device is asleep"tab on and off
1. So, there are about 5 users here with the same model number (EVR-AL00) and build number (9.0.0.136). Some can toggle "Stay connected while device sleeps", while--like me--hughey2k2 cannot. I cannot.
2. If it were a software problem, then all of us should have the same experience.
3. Does this point to, possibly, a hardware-related problem peculiar to the specific production batch? (Just to spell it out I mean, hughey2k2's phone were produced in the batch and there was a problem in production--possibly hardware--that could be the cause).
Comments?
EDIT: hughey2k2's unit does not have the same problem.

Anyone here ever have the issue where when you activate GA after a while, it sits with the animation like it's waiting for you to say something but does nothing even when you talk?
The way around is to close it and reopen but it's annoying that it doesn't work every time on first try.

I had this when I used active edge to activate the Assistant, appeared but did not hear me talking. If I said "Ok google" or used the button on bottom it worked.
If that's the same for you, in settings for active edge disable and enable the assistant feature and it should start working again.
