Trying to change Google Assistant language - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

I saw that Google Assistant is avaliable in polish language on my father's galaxy s8 (of course it works!). I have rooted Pixel 2 XL and I'm thinking how could I enable assistant in my foreign language. Any ideas? Where can I found google app folder directory in root/?

Google Now Doesn't Speak

Please forgive me, I have searched but 'Google Now' isn't a great search term...
Basically, I get no voice feedback when using voice search or the Google Now app on my 4.1.1 Jelly Bean update. Initially I was underwhelmed by Google Now and wondered what the fuss was, until I discovered it should be talking back to me in a Siri-like fashion.
I had the leaked 4.1 I/O release previously and same issue. Language is English and I have voice prompts turned on in the search settings.
Any ideas? It's a Google stock ROM and it never worked, so I really don't know what it could be.
Edit: Nevermind, same discussion here. Too bad there's no time-limited delete functionality here, feel free to delete.
Try this
There is my solution:
- Set your locale to whatever you want
- Set the Google Now Voice Language to English US
- Voice Output to Always
- Remove the tick(untick the box) on Hide Offensive Words
I spent hours of tinkering with this and tried all kinds of options, but in the end that solved it for me. This is because recently there was an update to Google Search, which is the application designation for Google Now and it introduced this bug.
I have my locale to my native one English UK en-GB and everything works like a charm as it should be and as it used to work before the update.

Make sure that you have downloaded the offline speech recognition in English US and maybe try asking something like "What's the time?". It will not talk back to all questions. Only the ones that were specifically pre-programmed. If it still doesn't work, try putting your system locale to English US and restarting your phone. And most importantly update your Talkback, Google Search and Google Voice search apps to their latest through the Play Store.
What I did now officially works on my O2 HTC One S and 3UK HTC One X, so it works for sure on those two.
I hope this helps

Language preference while travelling

Hey guys, I can't seem to find an answer to this and I'm on a prepaid plan with 200mb, so my options are limited. I bought my GSM gnex from Google in the US. All of the language settings are English/US. I am in France now. If I try to do a Google search, everything is in french and I can see no option to change it. Even the Google play store is in French now, and I can see no option to change it. Help!

Wouldn't it be under default languages?
Under language and input, everything is set to US English. As I said, I bought this and have used it in the US with no problem. Now that I'm visiting France, the web browser and play store seem to default to french without asking, and there doesn't seem to be an option for me to change this. Even regular Google searches come back french. Everything else on my phone is still in English.

Odd. I'm in the Netherlands but my gnex is on English(US). Play store, Google now and search are all in English.
Wish I could help but I have taken my Nexus to a couple of non-English speaking countries and while searches and the Play Store are customized according to region, it never changed language for me. For searches, you could try going into settings> accounts> Google> search and then tick the last box to force your phone to use google.com rather than the local domain. I don't know how you could change the Play Store language though.

I guess that's what I meant. All of my searches are customized for french, and even the play store apps now have french descriptions. Its kind of hard to search for tourist information in France when all of my search results are in french no matter how many times I try to redirect to Google.com instead of Google.fr.

Update: that last tip did the trick. Chrome still shows french results but the main browser is now in English. I guess I can wait until I get home to read play store app update descriptions. Thanks.

Google assistant??

Have the Row ROM fully updated. All apps updated including Google play services. Am I being thick? Or has Google assistant simply not rolled out yet? Seem to just have generic Google now voice recognition.
Cheers
Try common how to's with changing languages. It worked for me.
It's not available in the UK so you have to change your language to English US.
Awesome. Sorted, thanks!!!

what? translate with s-pen

i never noticed this before.
or maybe after i installed Google translate.
you can translate with s-pen, just point the pen where you want translate
This is a function that exists since the note 7, you can select single word or entire sentences, very useful
Installing Google Translate and then clicking Spen button will bring up Spen menu that contains Google Translate option.
Just came to know this feature. Very useful and only something the note can do.
The old fashioned way would be to select the text and then share it to Google Translate.
Yes it is very unique to note series and very useful, no hassle fast translation everywhere tjanks to OCR

How to get Huawei Health Beta to display everything in English

I have a Huawei Watch GT 2. I'm running the beta version of Health 10.0.6.022 with a Chinese id. I am trying to figure out how to have the whole app in English. The main page is fine but everything else is in Chinese. I don't speak nor read Chinese. I am using the watch with a Pixel 3 phone, system OS is 10. I can install third party watch faces, no issues. Everything is just in Chinese.
Every time I open Health, it tries to download a language pack that fails.
Any advice? I can change regions but I can't change languages in the app.
