I have LG G3 D855. Before Lollipop update, 'ok google' hotword detection was working even from the homepage without ooening google now. But after the update, it wont work anymore. I didnt make any changes to the home page either. The google search widget is still there in the home page and I am not using any 3rd party launchers. Now I have to open google now to use the hotword detection. Any help to this issue will be appreciated.
Never mind, new update for Google Now fixed the problem

hey everyone
i am currently trying to get the okay google everywhere function to work. i am running a hispasian 4.4.4 rom which works great. i have tried the tricks posted online and i get nothing.
i am running the 3.6.14 version of google now and google play store 4.9
on my google now app it shows okay google detection in the settings and when i click that all i get is the from google search app ( say okay google to start a voice search from the app).
but when i back out of that i have the audio history feature which says required for features such as using ok google to start a voice search from any screen. i have that feature turned on.
i dont know if im doing somethin wrong or if my play store needs to be updated or what?
thanks

I'm running the same version of google now. From the "OK Google" Detection screen, there should be 3 option boxes. Sounds like you only have the 1st one, From Google Search App. You're missing From Any Screen and From Lock Screen. Maybe uninstall and reinstall Voice.
From Any Screen messes up my voice (chipmunk like) in programs like Skype. So it might not be a big loss for you.
Hi everyone...
I just got the updated Google app, which is supposed to enable Google Assistant on all phones running Marshmallow and Nougat. Here is the info from Google's own blog...
https://blog.google/products/assistant/meet-your-googleassistant/
According to this blog, "To get started, touch and hold the Home button"
But... if I do that, it just opens up Google Now On Tap (like it always has).
Has anyone gotten it working on a stock S6?
Thanks...

I had the same thing on my S6 and couldn't figure out for the life of me how to enable the feature. I believe there's something server side Google has to do to enable it. Based on many of the press releases there would be an Google Play Services update and then it commented that Google would be rolling out the feature in waves.
At least I hope that's the case and we not excluded.
It is a server side switch.

Use the Assistant enabler Xposed module to get it working for now.
Google Assistant showed up on my S6 last night. One thing I did was join the beta program for Google Play Services. The only thing that I'm not a fan of is the removal of "stories to read" news articles. Otherwise it works quite well.
Updated to latest services apk (from apkmirror) yesterday. Got the assistant update this morning.
Mine just popped up with the prompt to set it up.. one day, it's working now. How do I get it to talk in the UK voice again? it's no longer an option
Edit: It is now an option after another update.
How is it possible that my device has gotten the 7.1.1 OTA, updated and yet no Google Assistant. I have tried everything, but yet when I long press the Home button Google Now on tap comes up.
PS: For your own sake those really smart people who will post links that will lead me to Google search results, keep it to yourself
I was having it in 7.0 but afyer upgrading my device no assistant is present.
From what I understand it depends if Google has activated it for your device and also what you have your language settings configured to.
Here is what I use: http://https://github.com/amirzaidi/Launcher3/releases
I am on 7.0. I got google assistant when i registered as google beta tester. And then its important to set your language to english.
Update: I just received the notification to enable Google Assistant and after the initial setup. I finally have Google Assistant! ?
It's popping up every time when I long press home button. I would like to get rid of it and gesture from bottom which brings up Google now. I'm not using none of them.

Change language in Android settings to English UK. After that if you long press home you'll get it.
Hello,
I'm the proud owner of two D855 and one D858HK.
For about a week I've noticed that I cannot configure OkGoogle to work from any screen.
I tried Oreo, Nougat and Marshmallow ROMS.
I managed to make it work upon first install of a Marshmallow ROM, but after the first reboot, and Google updating its services everything stops working.
The microphone works because I can issue commands is I press the OkGoogle widget.
And here comes the problem.
I go to configure Assistant go to voice, OkGoogle and then move the toggle From nay screen, I get the voice training part and... I say OkGoogle as I did hundreds of times before. Nothing happens, as if the microphone was dead. But it's not.
So... I tried on both my D855 phones and on one V500 tablet.
It does not work!
The devices are rooted.
My Google account is in good order.
The language of the device AND the search language is set to English US.
I tried emptying the cache of the Google App...
I installed fresh ROMS.
I restored previous backups.
I'm running out of ideas and patience.
I need OkGoogle for my voice activated Taker profiles.
Any ideas?
So, I found out the culprit.
It's the Google app.
If I update it to the latest version I lose Ok Google.
So I must keep the current one.
I can confirm that Google app is creating this issue.
This post is written on Resurrection Remix Nougat.
So I uninstalled the Google update, trained the voice and everything works.
Now I must find a way to prevent Google from updating if I press, by mistake, the update all button on Google play.
First I tried to Detach app from Google store using Titanium Backup. It works, the app does not show on Google play. For a while. Then it appears in Google play...
Then I tried converting the app in a User app using Titanium Backup... And then Detach it from Google play. It worked. For now. The App itself, the Ok Google commands still work.
Nope...
After I made the Google App to be an user app and Detached it from the Google Play, after 3 hours I checked, it's still asking to update.
A thread to discuss various google assistant issues and resolutions. If in wrong section please move
I have had issues on global rom with Google Assistant and now when I have used Lineage and RR I still have issues. On RR Ok google works from lock screen and in OS. But I get google voice search instead of assistant. I got the option as a notification to test the new assistant but when I press the notification it disappears and nothing happens. This is what it looks like to me. Any solution to this so you have assistant instead of voice search? For example, you cannot use routines with voice search.
I had the same problem with flash of XASP. Problem with my home lights .
You must to link your Google account, even if it is linked and do the voice match assistant even if you have already done it.
