Still don't have Google Assistant - Moto Z Play Questions & Answers

I'm running on the latest firmware and I also received the April Security patch update. But I still don't have Google Asistant. Long pressing the home button opens the Marshmallow style Now on tap interface, and the Ok Google voice activation opens up traditional voice search. Any ideas how to activate Google Assistant without unlocking the bootloader.

Omg thanks for the suggestion! Didn't work though. Next useless suggestion please. And also stop assuming that people haven't tried googling stuff before posting here.
I googled, searched xda for similar posts before asking here. So kindly stick to useful and helpful advise.

Tried that too, sideloaded the latest beta's for google Play services and Google app as well even though I'm on enrolled on the beta program for all those apps in the Play Store. I have phones running 6.0.0 having Assistant!

So hard reset is your last option.

That's actually not a bad option. Quick question: Does it wipe the internal storage too? I haven't factory reset my phone except via TWRP

Any way to get Google Assistant on OOS without Nova Launcher?

Hey guys, I really want to run GA but don't like Nova due to not having the left google now side card available. I'll be using a Pixel Launcher zip. Is there any way this is possible with the OP3 on latest OOS? Thanks
U can get GA by using an xposed module called assistant enabler. I'm on oos 3.2.6 and am able to use it but one issue I'm facing is that it doesn't retain my voice training. Whenever I say ok Google, it prompts me to train it. Gotta find a solution.
If you got root, then just add the following lines at the end of your build.prop.
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
After that, force close your google app, clear it's data and reboot. And you should have your google assistant working.
Note: this would actually show up your phone as Oneplus Pixel XL in every place. Not that it breaks anything but just an aesthetic trade-off.

Thanks for your reply! Does that xposed module enable things like Googles live wallpapers as well as the assistant?

Installed the module on latest community build and got the assistant working but I have the same retraining problem.
I've also have the same issue with voice training.

I found out a solution from Xposed Assistant Enabler topic. Some users posted that upgrading Google app to 6.8.x beta version solved the issue. I googled for beta google app and installed one. Then I followed Sabissimo's instructions and got it working. Sometimes though I get a blank screen even though the assistant works fine in the background. Like when I say OK Google I don't get any notification window. Only taskbar changes color but still the assistant works and opens up things normally on the screen.
These are the instructions I followed: (I had to update Google app to a beta version before I got it working)
Sabissimo said:
Disable assistant in module settings.
Go to voice settings.
Delete voice model.
Retrain voice model.
Enable assistant in module settings.
Should help

Google assistant is done through voice commands. Google search brings up the keyboard.

That used to be the case, but is no longer.
Keyboard is present, and can in fact be set as the default input method for assistant, if you desire.
OP: not sure whay its not coming up for you. Make sure play services is up to date.

I'm right there with you. I'm currently on Android O Beta 2 of the Pixel. When I was on Beta 1 I couldn't update my Google App so I rolled back to Android 7.1.2 and updated everything then proceeded to rejoin the beta. I've even done a factory reset while using O and still no keyboard option. If you ask the Assistant "can I just type" she even replies saying to just press the keyboard icon. I've submitted feedback to Google but I probably won't hear anything back. Today I decided to try again after installing the new beta. I uninstalled all updates and cleared cache. Still nothing.
So much for the conversational Google Assistant..
I'm in exactly the same boat. My wife and I both have a Pixel with Google App & Gboard up to date (mine was beta) with the phone's language set to English US and the keyboard the same.
She has the keyboard option, I do not
I've been on the chat with Google Support a number of times, but still no help. I did have the keyboard for a few days when I made another of my account as primary, but it then disappeared randomly overnight.
It's very frustrating as I would use it a lot more especially when the kids are asleep.

I now heard that it is a server side phased roll out with Gmail id as a criteria(not device dependent). When I relate this with your notes, I feel it is correct. The only option is to wait it out.
I think that's the case, however Google support isn't much help on the issue.
Did you end up getting the keyboard? If so, what did you have to do?
What do you mean?

I have Google app, Play Services and Gboard all on beta versions, I have Nougat, I have all of the other features, but the keyboard (which is what I wanted the most) He says if I leave beta and try his app, it might work, but I tried and nothing happened, and I don't want to leave beta.
I tried beta and I'm not off all betas to see if it makes a difference, nothing on my side...
Hello, y'all, I have just now received the Keyboard option along with history. It's been like 7h I got it and it wasn't here when I woke up, it's 20h20 where I am.

I'm pretty sure it is because you are located in Russia. I'm surprised GA works at all. You may try resetting app defaults (settings>>apps&notifications>>all apps>>3dot menu>>reset app preferences), checking your version number against the latest version. Mine is v7.17.28.21.

I'm not in Russia. I'm in Georgia. They are different countries.
I'll try resetting but I had it on my previous phones Nexus 6 and note 5. All my phones were from US but I always needed to set up my phone on VPN to activate Google now because it always said that GN isn't available in my country. Now the message is different. It points on my account.
I have Google home and reminders work there perfectly.

After updating, he made the same mistake. I deleted Google Play and Google Services. I deleted other Google related programs (google music, google +, gmail ...). Then I downloaded "http://opengapps.org/" Arm64, 6.0 nano gappsi from here. And I uploaded it with TWRP. Google Play is running smoothly right now. My problem is that when I open programs, I get an ad. How do we turn this off ?.

There is no option for those apps.
But for some apps like phone manager that don't need a network connection, you can block the app from connecting to network in connection manager and it won't show the banners anymore!

"Updated" to 28s Friday night (OTA). Then spent several hours getting Google Serrvices and Play Store playing nice again. (Had do remove and reinstall them) .Had to uninstall an reinstall Google apps like Gmail, Calendar and the Google search. What gave me the most problem was Contacts that would not sync Google contacts. Tried to add the Contacts Sync, but didn't have any success until I installed an old version (5.1) and now everything runs smoothly again and my contacts sync as the should. I just mention this, in case somone else runs into the same problems.
Anybody can upload a screenshot of android phone info (in settings) to see if there is a new baseband?
Thanks

Install Google apps on Huawei Mate XS

I purchased the Huawei Mate XS back in August 2020 thinking it would be easy to install GAPPS but after trying for so long back then I gave up until giving it another go last week and I can now say this is the best phone I've owned so far!
Thanks to bender_007 for making Googlefier! This app will literally install the GAPPS for you as long as you follow the prompts and instructions within the Googlefier app.
My phone came with EMUI 10.0.1.151 but after trying so many solutions, it always ended up being unsuccessful. I downgraded the software down to 10.0.1.138 using hisuite and from there had all my google stuff working within 10 minutes. Only downside I have is google pay is not working unfortunately but it's better than no google apps at all.
Video: Huawei Mate XS GAPPS
File link: Googlefier
Great Live wallpaper that works well on Mate XS
Thanks for the video. I just have a couple of questions which I was hoping you could answer.
1. How is the battery life after installing Google Services? I read that it drains the battery quite a bit and Huawei's Battery Optimizer shows an alert that Google services is draining the battery.
2. Are you able to upgrade to EMUI 11 after installing Google services?
3. Does Chromecast work reliably after installing Google services?

Hi guys, I've been really considering purchasing this phone, It's an absolute masterpiece. Although the fact that it doesn't support Google Services is a bummer. I am a Google user all the way from Gmail, GDrive, GHome, and AndroidTV at home to where I usually cast my screen and/or photos and other content.
Does Casting through Google Photos work with this workaround you've found?

When I installed Google services in my Mate XS, chrome cast worked with no issues. The only problem I had was that push notifications didn't work for apps downloaded from the Play Store.
