Rickim, In the screen where you click to use one of the options, and you clicked the check box accidently to always use the original home app, a message should have been present telling you what to do. It would have been something like;
Go to Menu>>settings>>applications>>manage applications>>Home and press the 'clear defaults' button.
This will bring back the option for you.
solved thanks
Mr Qman101 thanks for your help,.. its solved...

Untick this: Applications>Voice talk>Menu button>Settings>Launch Voice talk
Thank you, but untick this option dosn´t remove the delay of the home-button.
any other ideas?
Maybe its just that the phone is kinda "slow".. Wait for Jelly Bean, maybe that will improve the delay..
Are you talking about Vlingo ? If yes you may remove the corresponding APK.
Must be root to do so.
Its easy, just go to S Voice, touch menu and then tap the Start with double pressing (or something like this, i dont know because my language is spanish), untick it and TERMINADO! (done). Good luck!
delay remains!
I disable the "start by home" in "S Voice". the home button delay removed, but when screen locks and I press the Home button, its take about 2 seconds to show the lock screen. why?
I use the "Ultimate" 4.1.2 rom.
I have found S Voice completely unusable when not connected to WiFi, and so after some searching I have managed to completely replace S Voice with Google Now, including having Google Now activated by the voice dialing button on my bluetooth headset. While my S4 is rooted, I do not believe root is required to do this on the S4.
All credit goes to those who have figured this out before me, I'm just putting the steps in one place.
1. Disable S Voice. Menu > Settings > More > Application manager > All
2. Install Home2 Shortcut from Google Play Store (free!).
3. Open Home2 Shortcut and set the double tap option (Home > Home) to Google. Change your double tap response if you wish, set your Home Application to TouchWiz home, and tap the Close button.
3a. If you want the double tap to immediately activate the voice search function, set your Home > Home option to Voice Search.
4. Double tap the home button, choose Home2 Shortcut and select Always.
Congrats! You have now replaced S Voice with Google Now! But wait a sec, when you activate voice dialing from a bluetooth headset, you get the Google Voice Dialer. This isn't nearly as useful as Google Now, so that's the next item to fix!
1. Install Bluetooth Launch from Google Play Store (also free!).
2. Open Bluetooth Launch.
3. This app does not display well on our screens, but you should be able to find and tap on Google Search. This expands a list of options.
4. Select "com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity"
5. Activate voice dialing from your headset, choose Bluetooth Launch and Always.
Congrats again! BT headset voice dialing will now activate Google Now Voice Search! :highfive:

This used to be completely broken in both AOSP and TW roms because Google Now voices recognizing in Bluetooth voice dialing was buggy - it would never properly recognize contact names...
Are you saying it works now?
---------- Post added at 01:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:18 AM ----------
Just tried Google Now.
It still DOESN'T WORK.
It now recognizes names just fine, BUT ONLY when the screen is unlocked.
When the phone is off and locked, it doesn't recognize any voice commands.
Back to the buggy S-Voice for me!

I managed to get this working but now there is a slight lag/delay when pushing my home button. Not acceptable for me so I went ahead and uninstalled Home2 Shortcut.

The reason for that is the app is waiting for you to push the home button once again. You can set the double tap interval to be shorter. I disabled the double tap home key because 905% of the time that i am pressing the home key i am exiting an app, not doing a search and i want my phone to be as fast as possible.
Change the interval time to "very short" or "very very short"

Thanks! This significantly shortened the lag/delay. However, I am still noticing a very, very small lag which I just don't want (phone has enough lag as it is already) so I am uninstalling again. I'll just keep a shortcut to Voice Search in my dock and on my lock screen.
This didn't work for me initially. Google now would launch but wouldn't record. Found out I had to change a setting in Google now...
In Google now go to settings>voice>blutooth headset
Now it will hear you. I still have to tap my bt mic a couple of times before it pics up.

I'm having a similar issue. I can hit my button on my headset to launch Google Now now, but it doesn't seem to pick up my audio. I hope to play around with it more later.
Does anyone actually have the Google Now Voice Search actually picking up the sound from their bluetooth headset?
No go for Google Now
I followed the directions as outlined above - and I had the same problems with Google Now and bluetooth not working with the screen off. It just won't start. Works fine with the screen on. So I tried Dragon Mobile Assistant and it works. Much better than SVoice and it reads aloud what actions it's performing.
Worked like a dream! Thanks!

Yup. The OP's thorough, step-by-step instructions worked like a dream. My S4 now jumps immediately to a listening Google Now search when i double-tap home, or (and this is the best part) when I press+hold the home button on my Plantronics Legend BT headset. Even / especially from a completely locked state. There's a weird sound, like two waiting chimes overlapping, but who cares?! It works!
You may have to follow parashara's tip as well:

I followed the instructions in the first part of the OP and can't get this to work.
When double tapping I just get a grey screen and then back to the launcher.

Same thing here. Either the phone doesn't do anything, or I see a black screen that goes immidiately back to the launcher. Sometimes it just stays on "Initialization"...
Bluetooth Launch isn't working for me.
I got the double press home button to work but I can't seem to get my bluetooth call button to work. When I disable S-Voice in Application Manager, Settings takes away my option to "Activate voice dialing." But when I enable S-Voice in Application Manager and select "com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity" in Bluetooth Launch I'm never asked to select Bluetooth Launch as an option when voice dialing. . . It's a bit frustrating and any help would be incredible.
Thanks.

Thx a bunch !
Stopped working with MH8 update
Using GOLDENEYE ROM on i337
Wasn't able to get Google Now to work, but once I disabled S Voice and used Bluetooth Launcher I did get Utter to work. All I'm really interested in doing is making hands free calls, and that works, even if the screen is locked with a pin.
I am using the Hyperdrive ROM, but not sure if that matters.
YMMV.

Instead of installing Home2 Shortcut, just open up S Voice and go to settting, and disable the app from starting without having to install any third party apps.
Well I like to use the voice option in the keyboard now and again. It doesn't seem to activate when I press the button though. If I hold the , key down the mic icon shows but then nothing happens when I select it. Any one else having the same issue?

go into settings, language and input, and check google voice typing if it is unchecked.

Questions should go in Moto X Q&A
You need to check your settings
From the main system settings menu:
select "Language & Input"
Make sure that "Google Voice typing" is checked
Under the settings for the Google Keyboard check the box for "Voice input key"
What I mean is say things like ok google to activate google assistant. Or press volume up/down/power to activate google assistant.
In European version it is by default, and also when you hold power button for 0,5sec.

Welp, I got china rom.
I have google assistant but holding power button does nothin.
thx for reply.
Try this:
Start the assistant (via app drawer),
tap on it to make it big,
click on the profile picture in the top right corner,
open Assistant tab,
scroll down and tap on your device ("Smartphone") and
activate Google Assistant and Voice Match.
Then it should listen to your voice, as long as the screen is on.

I have a CN ROM. You mentioned holding the power button for 0.5s to trigger something.
I remember that notification showing up on my phone when I first set it up.. and I dismissed it at the time..but now can't find out how to configure it again.
Where is the setting? I can't seem to find it again...

It's not there for me... Sad...
I don't know why. I've updated recently to the lastest 6.1 but it's CN.. that could be why...
Another user was commenting he can't see the app freeze in his menu.
I don't know why there are so many of these weird variations between the same phone...
I have the same problem
Is there a way how to replace CN Rom with EU Rom?
