Hey guys, I apologize if this has been asked before. I wanted to post this right in the actual Android R HD thread but because I am new it will not let me.
My only question is -- I have successfully put this ROM on my HTC One AT&T phone, and it is all working wonderfully, it's just that Ok Google is not activating. Am I doing something wrong or is this universally affecting Android Revolution HD on the HTC One? I have the hotword enabled so that saying Ok Google should work, but it doesn't. I don't have power save mode activated. When I hold the Home button, it will let me activate the search by saying Ok Google, but just nowhere else.
Thank you all for everything.
Bump, please friends
First of all, your question is extremely vague. Which ARHD are you running? ARHD GPE edition? ARHD Sense? Are you using the Google Experience Launcher? Is Obama going to butt rape us all?

I thought this feature only existed on the new Motorola phone and the Nexus 5. Is this really supposed to work for us as well?

[Q] Best "Siri" or "S-Voice" like app that doesn't eat the battery??
I use Google now for most everything, but I hate the HTC One's voice dial. Is there an app that you all like that doesn't drain the battery?
I've tried a few different ones and liked Dragon the best, but it eats the battery alive. I found a hacked S-Voice that works about most of the time, but about every 5th or 6th time I have to go in and clear the data to make it work correctly. I'll say "Call Home" and it will revert back to a question I asked 2 days ago and say "Let me do an internet search for - directions to Starbucks".
Thank you in advance!

Thanks.. I guess I've just been using Google search, but not Google Now. I went through the Google Now setup and it does voice-dial now, as well as composes text messages. Now I just need to see if it'll work with my bluetooth headset?
Thanks!

There is an option in the menu of the main Google Now card view that will take input from Bluetooth, make sure that is checked, and you'll be good to go!
I updated my Moto X to kit kat yesterday and now my hotword detection doesn't work on the home screen or within Google now. I have the nexus 5 home launcher installed and fear it could be part of the issue, but it worked fine in jelly bean so I don't know why it wouldn't work here.
Anyone else having this issue?

I can safely say it's not the new home launcher. I've been running that for awhile now and both the motorola detection and the google detection work fine (i.e., I can say "okay google now" at any time, or say "okay google" when the device is already woken.)
I haven't done the kit kat upgrade though

I'm having the same problem.
"Ok google now" works as it should.
But when in google now, saying "ok google" does not activate voice control...very strange.

It seems that Moto may have deactivated this on purpose to prevent it from interfering with the Touchless Control feature.
Same thing, it was working shortly after the update I believe.

seems unlikely. i can't seem to get mine to work either, even though Google Now settings say to listen for "Google".
Select the Auto-Update tab from the top and choose one of the auto-update options (we recommend leaving it on “over WiFi-only”). After that, scoot over to the All tab and find English (US). You’ll notice it already says “pre-installed”. Don’t listen to it. Select English (US) anyway. From there, jump to the Installed tab and press “English (US)” where you’ll be asked to download the latest version (version 28 at the time of writing). Hit “Download” and the updated version will be downloaded and installed.
After it’s finished downloading, press the home button where you’ll notice “Ok Google” will now be displayed inside the Google Search widget. Simply speak that phrase whenever you’re on your homescreen to perform a Google Search or voice actions. That’s it. Was relatively painless, ri

Something is definitely broken. The image I included shows Android 4.4 and Android 4.2.2 differences. 4.4 is missing the "Ok" and maybe that is why it doesn't work? It worked fine before and now doesn't. English is my set language and that doesn't fix the problem.
just my 2 cents.

KidCuda,
Orsini has left out some steps. Where is his selecting Auto-Update tab (play store?)? I don't see anything that says "pre-installed". Where are you even looking for 28? I would like to confirm what number I am on.
Thanks.
Even you had 28 Download English language.

He's talking about in Google Now, go to the "Manage downloaded languages" section in settings. I tried this (on my Moto X, even though I'm typing this on a Nexus 7) and it didn't work.
My Nexus 7 just updated to KitKat tonight and doesn't have this problem.

Okay. I was able to update to version 28 and it still does NOT work, but something changed in the settings. See attachment.
I uninstalled the english language pack and reinstalled it to no avail...
So I have a HTC One, and my girlfriend has a HTC One X. Our google search hotwords are different. Mine says "Say Okay Google" and hers says "Say Google". On top of that, mine allows for continuous searching (ie. say "okay google", search something, and repeat), whereas hers only can search once (ie. say "google", search something, then you have to press the voice button to search again. Is there supposed to be a difference ? Do certain devices contain different versions of Google Search ? If possible, can the continuous searching be activated somehow ?

That Google Now feature ''Ok Google'' is new in android 4.4 (on your HTC One). The HTC one X is still on android 4.3 and doesn't support this feature yet.

Are you sure ? I'm more talking about in the actual google search app. Not the homescreen stuff. Also, my One is running 4.3 with sense 5.5, and the One X is running 4.2.2 with sense 5. Both running stock roms. no modding at all.

Android 4.3 under Google Search tab: ''Google''
http://www.android.com/about/jelly-bean/
You can say "Google" to activate Voice Search from within Google Search.
Android 4.4 ''Ok Google''
http://www.android.com/versions/kit-kat-4-4/
Just say “Ok Google”
You don’t need to touch the screen to get things done. When on your home screen* or in Google Now, just say “Ok Google” to launch voice search, send a text, get directions or even play a song.
Don't forget your region/language must be set to US to activate ''OK Google''.

yes, i know that. but i'm running 4.3 on my One and i can say ok google to activate it.
so..
HTC One: Android 4.3 + Sense 5.5, able to say OK Google to activate, able to continue searching after each search
HTC One X: Android 4.2.2 + Sense 5, only able to say google to activate, cant say OK Google, only able to do once, not after a search
also..
Transformer Infinity: CM 10.2 (Android 4.3.1), only able to say google to activate, cant say OK Google, only able to do once, not after a search
so with the range of devices i have access to, i'm only able to use OK Google hotword for one of the devices. And with that device, i'm able to use the hotword again to search again while in the results of another search. the other two devices can only use the hotword from the initial google search screen.
what i really want to know is why i cant do continuous searches like i can from my HTC One.
Because they don't support it...yet

Any help appreciated.

Pure shamu by error311.
Edit: I guess that is why. Thanks. I found someone tried something in another thread that they claimed works. I'll just wait for it to be fixed.
All you have to do is touch it even though it's greed out it will work touch it then it will ask you to train your voice and it will work..
