Google Now Hotword Detection Disappeared - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Note: I have not rebooted to see if that will fix it.
My Google Now Hotword Detection option has vanished and Now no longer responds when I say 'Google'.
I am still set to English (US), but the option is just not there:

Any ideas?

You mean... up time? 53hrs right now.
I've always had the hot word option available, even since updating from 4.1 to 4.1.1.

noticed this today. Restart fixed it, I wonder what caused it to disappear though.
I don't have the personalized recognition option though or the Google Account dashboard option :/

Mine just did the same.
So here is what I found, mine on 4.1.2 worked perfectly set to Australian English (yep Im in the US but dont have the accent)
My dashboard had everything, today my Nexus7 updated to 4.2 and it stopped working.
If you set the language back to US English nothing happens.
If you go to Apps->Google search, flush the app data and cache, then start up google now, it will do the first time setup where you can choose to enable it, at this point all of your settings are back as they where.
Switch back to another english and at this point the dashboard Ive always had, with the personalized recognition and the hotword settings all vanish.
Weird that I have had all these settings on Australian English all this time until the update.... :silly:

What I did was to turn on Google Voice in keyboard setting, and then switch the language in Google Now settings (under Voice) to English US (don't worry as I'm not a native speaker and don't have the US accent, too), and it should be working again.

voice search : Settings missing !!
Some of my voice setting are missing ...
I go into Settings - Language and Input - Voice search - and then all settings I have are Language, Speech output , Block offensive word , offline speech recognition , and Bluetooth headset ...
My questions is what happens to the others settings ? ( hotword detection and personalized recognition )
So My nexus is 5 in not always listening and i can not turn hotword detection on and of cause this setting has disappeared :crying:
Does anyone know how to resolve that ?

[FIXED] Google Keyboard Sync greyed out?

If you use Google Keyboard you might find that the the sync is greyed out under Languages & Keyboard - Google Keyboard - Accounts & Privacy. To fix this you need to go one page back and click on Text Correction and scroll down and make sure Suggest Contact Names is on. Go back to Accounts and Privacy and sync should be turned on.
Also synchronization is greyed out for Google Apps users no matter what you do.
Whereabouts is this in settings?

Suggest Contact names is on but it's still greyed out. I have two business accounts but even when I deleted them and leave my personal account and reboot phone I get same situation[emoji37]

Same here. I tried adding Google Keyboard via Management Console but it still doesn't work. Did you find a solution?
This worked for me thanks
For Samsung devices with latest Secure Folder, Google Keyboard dictionary sync gives a false error about having a "Work account". The only solution is to uninstall Secure Folder = unacceptable.
Please leave Google feedback about this on the play store reviews and via Feedback from within the keyboard settings menu.

Was this solved in meanwhile?
I still have the same issue on Samsung Galaxy A5.
Cannot sync learned words accros devices
I disabled secure folder but still the same issue.
Uninstalling it (from the app settings menu) does not remove everything related to secure folder. It just uninstalls the secure folder setup you did.

Unfortunately this is a known behavior and won´t fixed by the Here Support. I wrote with them several times. App is optimized to not use in Landscape Mode. Thats the matter. Start a Route, you can set some settings there.
Thanks! Is there a better offline mapping solution for the US? I tried Sygic, but depending on the direction of the wind, I was only able to access countries other than mine.
I tried following:
Navigon - Not Working with build in GPS Chip
Waze - Too Tiny, Only Online
Here - Missing Settings
Sygic - Ugly maps, malfunctions in settings, lose of maps after serveral times.
and others.
TomTom - Crashes with 3G Dongle connected.
I use TomTom with Wifi Stick now (so no crashes) and its working very well. Its for 19Euro per Year... seems to be ok.
You can try the latest google maps. Its able to store offline cards now tow. But i dont like the voice and the style...
Becareful upgrading to new version ..won't start on mine.. But all other devices working ok.. I went back to this version and working fine..

Google Assistant Issues

Can anyone else confirm whether the Google Assistant is working correctly on their device?
I can't seem to trigger 'OK/Hey Google' when the screen is off - this functionality worked flawlessly on my Galaxy S8 but only seems to work on the A70 when the screen is on.
What's also interesting is that when I try to access 'Voice Match' the sub-menu doesn't open when clicked (but isn't greyed out).
I've tried reinstalling both the Google and Assistant apps but with no success.
I really miss being able to give commands when driving!
Presumably Bixby (ugh!) still works with the screen off, so I doubt it's a limitation of the SD675 chipset?
Same here. Doesn't work when the screen is off, but works when it's on even if the device is still locked.

Thanks for confirming.
I'll flag this to Google and Samsung teams, but I feel it may be intentional...
Make sure that lock screen personal results is ON in the Google app >> settings >> Google assistant >>assistant >> your phone (in the assistant devices list at the bottom of the page). This is off by default.

Thanks for the guidance. Is your screenshot from an A70?
I don't even have that menu option available? Here's what I have, you can see how it's missing from the list.
Hmm yeah that's from my A70. I am on the beta version of the app so it might be that. Try v10.20.2.21.arm64

Maybe you need to turn on Voice Access in Accessibility settings
Actually I have just checked mine and it is available, you must have chosen a setting while setting up the assistant which is blocking it.
Have you updated to the latest build? I see someone has posted this question on the google support forum
Yeah I'm on the latest build. Soo wierd.

I found out how to fix this. I had two languages set in the Google assistant, as soon as I deleted Spanish and just left English the option was activated again

Mine still doesn't work.
I have the same problem and removing the second language thus only leaving English unfortunately didn't fix it for me either.
I had the same problem but a server side update I think is what was needed to actually fix it. I tried to play around with the voice settings like some people had said, but that didn't seem to do anything so that makes me think it was either server-side thing or even a simple update on the app from Google Play because I had a ton updates needed to be done.

Same here. Had two languages (both support the new assistant), deleted the second, only English remaining - still greyed out.
Now I've even tried to just Factory Reset and just allow everything on the next setup.
But guess what, even now the Assistant voice typing is greyed out.
I had English and French in Google Assistant settings. Removed French and rebooted and voila - voice typing enabled. Thanks guys..
I don't have another language in the Google Assistant settings but it still doesn't give me the option to turn on assistant voice typing.
Problem solved. Just go to Google Play and do "update all" for all apps. Follow this thread for details: https://support.google.com/pixelpho...typing-is-greyed-out-in-gboard-settings?hl=en
I solved the problem on my Pixel 6 Pro by doing the following for two apps: Gboard and Google.
- In Settings, force stop the app, then clear its cache
- In Play Store, uninstall updates (by clicking on Uninstall), then Update

Question Language transcription =! english how add another language

hi,
i am testing the audio record app, and transcription only works if you record a voice speaking in english.
any idea how add another language?
thx for helping
You need to
1. Open Live Transcribe & Sound Notifications (app)
2. Press on settings (lower left corner, next to the keyboard symbol)
3. More Settings
4. Scroll down to the section Audio & language and there you can add/change Primary language and Secondary language.
Be aware though that - as far as I remember - the recorder app only supports English and since the release of A12 also Japanse, French and German. So if you want another language to function, it won't do.
Edit: I checked and yep, those are the only supported languages.

thxx a lot, but due to translation i guess, i dont find the app you call live transcrive, could you post an icon?
thxx a lot for your time
That was a typing error, sorry, it's Transcribe, with a B and not with a v.
this is what i get, the green or blue one?
The symbol should look like this
You should be able to find it under Accessibility, my rusty french says it should resemble something like Accessibilité
ohhh that s interesting.
i don t see the icon in app list, so i went to play store for download it and i had the "open" action button, so it means it s somewhere.
amazing how it works even in french, but i can t find the icon anywhere for add it to my home screen, weird.
thanks for your time
i ve found the trick, you need to activate "show in app list" wtf

That's ridiculous, why would they hide a useful app like this from search
My setup is not "clean", meaning I copied everything over from my Old P4 XL that had this transcribe app - that is why I'm not sure if I maybe actually enabled that by hand previously and just don't remember that.
Would be nice to know if someone here that made a "clean" setup without previous stuff could offer insight into his experience.
