Question Some Google voice services not working - Google Pixel 6 Pro

I'm not sure why but Assistant voice typing and google recorder app's transcription features are not working. I tried rebooting the device, uninstall updates but nothing seems to work... But the features did work before so I'm not sure what is wrong now.
My device is rooted and has the pixelify module installed, could this be one of the reason? I did tell it to enable next-gen assistant but it doesn't seem to make a difference. Any help is much appreciated.

To be honest im not even sure if pixelify is causing it, I uninstalled it and restarted my device and still it refuses to work. But live transcript works flawlessly. Really confused why I'm having this issue.

[Q] Voice search "Can't reach Google at the moment" (Solved)

I'm running Liquid Smooth 2.5 and have just found that anytime I try and use voice search the microphone icon glows as if it is recognizing but as soon as it goes to search it just errors out with "Cannot reach Google at the moment". Has anyone else encountered this and are there any suggested fixes? I found some threads of making sure the device date and time is correct. It is. Interestingly I just tried on my rooted stock N7 and same thing... Yet I also just tried on my wife's Asus TF300t and it is working properly... I've checked all google account settings I can think of and can't see anything abnormal.
Thanks in advance for any help.

What color are you signal bars? Grey = No connection to Google, Blue = Connection to Google
Try clearing data for the Google Framework
Signal bars are blue both on wifi and on data with good signal. I just tried clearing Google Services Framework... No go still unfortunately. Thanks for the suggestion however.

I will try refreshing Gapps when I get a chance but the thing that has me puzzled is why my stock rooted N7 is doing the same thing. I can't help but think it is an issue with my account or something. I haven't changed any settings recently that I know of. if it was just a Gapps issue I would have thought it would be isolated to just my SGS3. It isn't likely a location issue as my Wife's tablet is working fine.... Definitely confused...
Again thanks for any and all suggestions

And all of these are connected to your WiFi?
Remove and Re-add your google account on the affected devices.
Just to try I added my wife's account into Google now and tried voice searching with her account from my N7 and it didn't work either. It works from her tablet. I think this means it is not a ROM issue but rather a settings or similar issue. I will try a Gapps refresh later to see what happens. If anyone else has experienced this regardless of whether there is a fix I'd be curious to know. if others have I may submit it to Google. if it is just a weird issue for me I'd rather try working through it.

I've been having this problem too with an HTC One on a Sense-based custom ROM, and a HTC Evo 4G LTE both stock and custom. I've found better success uninstalling the updates to the Google Search app though it's still slower than it used to be. Some more people have talked about it here... http://forums.androidcentral.com/go...-google-moment-while-online-voice-typing.html
Doesn't seem like there's much of a solution or acknowledgment by Google that there's a problem.
I fixed the issue!! On a hunch I decided to delete my Google account from the phone completely. I then booted to recovery and cleared cache and dalvik. Rebooted and added my Google account back in... it is now working as it used to. If anyone else is having the issue I would recommend trying this and see if it helps you as well.
Almost forgot but I'd really like to thank everyone who contributed ideas and thoughts!
I just verified this fixed my N7 as well!
Thanks

My impression from searches on Google's forums is that this is a fairly prevalent problem. I don't know what causes it, but I've seen it on S4s, too. I just wanted to add that, anecdotally, I tried clearing the cache (though not dalvik) and removing the Google account, to no avail; however, I found a much simpler solution:
Settings, My Device, Language and input
Change Voice recognizer from Google to something else (in my case Samsung powered by Vlingo)
(Optional) Change Voice recognizer back to Google
This resolved the issue for me, please let me know if it works for others (I don't need a thumbs-up or anything, I'm honestly just curious if it's that simple and we're making it out to be more difficult.)

LeeDroid ROM Android 7, Dialer issues.

This rom comes with the Google dialer by default which i find to be terrible, but besides the point the whole app has just stopped working. I want to reinstall the default HTC Phone app. I tried downloading an APK as well as the cousin People APK app that goes with it. I can access the dialer but I do not get a call screen. So i can't hangup or do anything unless I have some headphones plugged in then i can use the mic.
Any help on this matter would be appreciated, as i cannot do much with anything related to phone calls.
Just reinstall the Rom and make sure the Google Dialer is not selected in the aroma options.
Try set the Google Dialer as default dialer app on settings.

Just Dirty Flash the Rom. Dont wipe anything and reinstall
Pretty much what everyone else says. reinstall the rom "without wiping" or "dirty update" etc. Doesnt affact your data. I also had the issue your having, but it wasnt any kind of loss, I just wanted to know what the difference was and if it was any good. it worked breifly, and then it crashed constantly, so re-flashed rom with it not selected.

I did the reflash and all is well, thank you.
Since I see you are also on Leedroid would you mind telling me if you are having issues with GIFs? Mine all have a thick green line on them and they all play funky. Also the other thing that I can see wrong with the ROM is that if I use the Pixel assistant, OK google detection is greyed out, any ideas to fix either of these issues?
You must set the Google dialer as default in:
Settings ==> Apps ==> configure apps (from 3 vertical dot)

No using pixel assistant, so cant help there.
No issues with GIFs though. Anywhere in particular you're having the problem? I use the default HTC Gallery, and have had no issues. Also fine in apps like Facebook and Firefox.

I'm on 8.1 and it works fine for me. If you are rooted there is a magisk module that I've used before that will get it working. The google assistant apk is also available to download at apk mirror. I haven't tried it though so I'm not sure if it would work.

OK nevermind, found the problem, for some reason the voice activation was off. Probable turned off when I activated the squeeze function.

Issues with Google Assistant

Lately when I've been asking Google to set a reminder it ALWAYS says "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that" and shows the attached screen in my attachment
Hey Google, remind me at 3pm of my haircut. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Hey, Google remind me at 4pm to put on pants.. "sure, let me get some more information so I can help you with that"
Download the assistant app. I know it sounds dumb but try it. I had a similar issue when I had my pixel 3 the one that comes on it sux u need the full one from the playstore. a Few built in apps are like that and it's stupid to me.

I downloaded Google Assistant from the Play Store. When I say Hey Google it appears to still open the stock google assistant app and gives me the same result when asking it to do something.
If I manually open the Google assistant app that I downloaded as soon as I say Hey Google it just stops doing anything

Judging by the screenshot you didn't set it up fully yet. You're still showing the "GET STARTED" option. Did you go through all the steps to 100% complete the setup? That's what it looks like you need to do.

That getting started comes up every time. I've had this phone for almost a year and used Google Assistant all of the time. It's just recently that this issue has come up.
I'm going to uninstall what I can related to Google Assistant, clear data of what I can't and sign out of everything and then sign back in and see if that helps
EDIT: uninstalling and reinstalling, clearing data from some Google services, signed of my Google account linked to assistance and verything seems to be fine now
Back to doing it again...fml
You could try booting to safe mode and see if the problem persists. If not, there's an app interfering. If the problem is still there in safe mode, then that's something glitchy about the Google setup.

I haven't tried the reboot into safe mode yet. Sometimes Google Assistant gets its crap together and works fine and then other times it needs more information. At this moment it's working again. Once it acts up I'm going to do the safe mode way and see if that works.

Question Spectrum TV app with root help.

HI,
does anyone know how to get the Spectrum TV app working with root? Atm I'm running OOS 11with Magisk and I always get the error in the screenshot. I've always tried the deny list and still get this error. I've Google for an hour with no luck.

Contact the app developer and ask them if they can add the phone to their support list. I mean, it's not a ROOT issue as per your screenshot.
Spectrum TV won't work if you have USB debugging on. Also, it unticks in Magisk's Deny List whenever you reboot. I would make sure both of those are taken care of, then clear all data from the Spectrum app, reboot, open Magisk and retick Spectrum in the Deny List, and then try to open the app.
Thank you both for replying! I tried all of that and still same issue. I guess I'll try contacting the app developer. I'm surprised this phone hasn't been added to the supported devices list. I was just hoping someone here had the 9 pro as well and had experience with the Spectrum app.
Maybe it would be possible to trick the app into thinking I have a Galaxy or something? Obviously those are supported. Probably too much trouble though lol.
I have a OnePlus 9 Pro, running C48, rooted with Magisk 24.3, and the Spectrum TV app works for me, using Deny List and the Universal SafeNet Fix. Do you subscribe to Spectrum as your wifi or cable provider? It used to be that the app wouldn't work unless you were connecting to the same wifi (or in the same area, if using mobile data) that you are obtaining from Spectrum. Not sure if that still applies, though.

I subscribe to their internet and cable service. It used to work on my Oneplus 7 Pro which was also rooted. I've only had this phone since February. I tried the universal safety fix just now and re added Spectrum to the deny list but same thing unfortunately :/
*edit* I've noticed Spectrum TV keeps ubchecking itself from the deny list even without rebooting.
Did you force stop the app, then clear its cache and data, reboot, retick Spectrum in Magisk's deny list after rebooting, and then try the app?

Yeah, I tried all of that. What actually worked I found out about a module called Shamiko installed that and rebooted and tried the app again and it's working! Hopefully it stays working lol.

Hey are you by any chance still running it this way? I'm on a Moto G Power 2020 but I can't find any combination of anything that works. Shamiko, with deny list on or off (it says it doesn't work with the list enabled but that seems contrary to what we're trying to do with it) Nothing either way. USB debugging is off, Magisk app hidden. Still getting the Spectrum error. Somehow it knows anyway . All I can really think of is that Viper4Android is also running but that's a deal breaker as it's the whole reason I bought this phone in the 1st place, which was to be a dedicated music/podcast player and navigation phone for work. I'd just use the stock Pixel 6p I have for TV casting otherwise.
-- Edit -- Scratch that sorry I got it to work finally. I wasn't rebooting after disabling the enforcement list and trying with Shamiko module running. It works in that config now. Though I also installed kdrag0n Universal Safety Net fix as well so maybe that combo helped? Either way it did the trick finally and I don't have to worry about Viper being in the mix. Viper works (yes Neon enabled yes processing showing) while using SpectrumTV btw. In case anyone is wondering.
You don't need the universal sfn fix. I use shamiko and denylist in zygisk and every app and game works as intended for me. Fully passing SN. Only thing I don't have is L1, but I could give two butts less about that.
