[Q] No Google Now Activation - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

Tried to activate Google Now by Voicecommand "OK Google", but nothing happens.
Not on the Startscreen, not inside the opened App.
Only works by manually starting the search inside the App.
Settings has missing points like "activate on each screen", "train command".
Version is 4.5.13.19.arm64
No problems on the S5 with version 4.5.13.18.arm, without the 64 at the end
Anyone got the same problem?

Samsung took it out to save battery

Don't spread your assumptions as fact. Samsung has not acknowledged this at all.

I may have misread the issue. I can only voice activate Google search from the home screen. I have no Google now like I did on my S5.

This feature has been disabled by either Samsung or Google on the galaxy s6 and s6 edge. I'm not sure if it's related to the bugs or maybe Samsung wants people to use S-Voice. But it did work for me the first week I had it. I'm sure you are referring to "OK Google" from anywhere option.

Did anyone try installing an older version to see if it would return....?

I've seen it quoted in more than one article so from my perspective it's not an assumption.
But it's irrelevant what us relevant is someone did and it sucks ?

Delete. I guess everyone knows that ok google works as long as you are on the same screen with search widget..

I guess everyone knows that ok google works as long as you are on the same screen with search widget. I had to turn off voice wake up in the SVOICE settings.

Hello Guys
Google Now is (at the moment) working on all Screens.
i disabled S-Voice, deinstalled all updates
now i got google now version 4.0.28.1516623.arm
its not listed at installed apps, but under the tab all apps
Maybe its a problem with 64-processor on the side of google
thanks

I'm using Nova and OK Google works on all screens with no widget necessary.

It's not available on the S6 since 5 days after launch.
S6 Edge

He's talking about this:

The video says, hit home+volume up to record.
It seems to also not be working right now.
This is damned odd to put stuff in your videos that aren't available.

Because all the peoplethat I know or reviews I have seen online of the note 2, doesn't have this feature.
Maybe I am in a mistake, and simply the people doesn't know how to make it work, but if they removed it its a shame

They were using this as a selling point before release, we have to hope it will come back like split - screen, maybe it was just not ready.

I was looking forward to this feature, sad to see it's not available.
The thread linked below goes into a bit more detail about it (not much more detail). It may come in an OTA... I'm guessing the kinks they are working out, as mentioned in that thread, is the ability to block the recording or movies from Netflix, and Play Store Movies, etc.

Same issue as call recording or camera shutter sound then I would guess. Can be enabled using the csc feature method maybe?
I would be interested in this feature to record skype calls, if thats how it works (ibhavent watched the video lol)
Maybe the feature can be extractd from one of the earliest ruu's? (If somebody knows what theyre doing there)

[Q] Google Now on Note 2

Does the Google Now work on the Note 2?
Do the cards show up as they do on the Nexus? What about vocal queries using Google Now?
Do they work the same way?
I presume Google Now is a big improvement over SVoice.

It works. No need to worry I am using it
It works well, my only gripe is getting it to come up with double clicking the home button.
I know that pressing and holding the settings button brings it up too, but it also activates the keyboard. Kinda annoying.
If your on a home screen just tap a search widget or long press menu to get it up.

You can long press the Home button and goes into the Task Manager, at the bottom of the screen you will see 3 buttons, and click on the Google button(between the task manager and remove all dustbin logo) to go into google now.:cyclops:
Long press the Menu button.
Or use the Google search bar widget

Has anyone figured out a 1 step process to get the voice action ready to listen? Like siri i guess lol.

Unable to install Google Phone

I was able to replace the rest of the Moto core apps (Camera, Contacts, Messages) with the stock Google versions but when I try to install Phone it says it is not compatible with my phone. I have the T-Mobile variant.

You have to find the version on APK mirror that is labeled "no Nexus" it's the only one I've found that works. Also it seems there is a bug with the T-Mobile variant that you won't get notifications for texts with Android messages. If you do let me know how you got it to work. I have tried everything to get Android messages working without success.

Ah thanks. Looks like that version is almost a year old. That sucks. As far as Android messages I never experienced that issue. I just had someone who is on t-mobile send me a txt and it came through. I am on wifi calling if that makes a difference.

Pretty much. Downloaded it from the play store and disabled the moto messages app. The first time I launched it prompted me to set it as default and haven't had any issues.

I give up, no matter what I do I can't get it to work
I wonder if it is a problem with Android messages or the Moto. I use textra and I have no problems.
As far as the phone app goes, I installed one off the xda labs store and it looks just like the stock Android version.
Nevermind, that is a year old as well.... Sucks
We won't get a working Google dialer as you need Twrp to flash the dialer framework
I've had no problem with android messages as well. Downloaded straight from the play store installed, disabled the moto messages app, set android as default and worked out of the gate.
To anyone that needs Google dialer I've been using this thread and everything seems to work fine and most current version is up usually a few days after update. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-google-dialer-t3557412

I'll try it. I've already replaced Contacts, Messenger and Gallery apps. So might as well replace this one as well.
But then again, I don't want to root or install TWRP just yet either.
It's on mine. It will not go.

I just installed the Google Dialer from the OnePlus 5 and after running the Play Store update and theming it with Swift Black it's so much better than the OnePlus dialer.
I also added Google Duo for video calls.

If you get a moment, can you please check some things for me ? Do you still have the visual voicemail tab in dialer? Also, when you get a call is the One Plus buttons or Google's.
Thanks

Stock pie.
I read about a bug in Q. Was that a bug on a 3aXL. I have to find it again.
Getting galaxy plugin on responding on reboot. I do have Apps Not Responding {ANR} turned on is options in Android. Default is off.
After the 3aXLreboots, samsung plugin is not responding. If I press wait, it will keep saying "Not Responding". Opening the Galaxy Wearable app shows a blank page. I have to press "Close App". Then Galaxy Wearable opens properly and I can connect to watch. Its the only way to connect. It does stay connected.
Where is that Samsung developer forum? I am going to look for it later. We need this shiit FIXED!
