Asking for help with diploma thesis survey

I am currently writing a diploma thesis on mobile distribution platforms and would like to kindly ask the community to fill out my very short anonymous form that I'll use as a basis for research.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dHEySUpKNTk2Q0pablI2R2l0MGVid3c6MA
Thanks to all who decide to participate.

Yes.. I filled it... it said I know android well..
Sent from the MUST have app!

Filled in.

Completed!

Done. I figure you're going to need more than 3 people to fill out the survey.

I did the survey.
I am the one that left the comment about Google removing apps from your phone. Were you asking if I think they are capable of removing the app or are you asking if I think they should be allowed to do it?
I think they are capable, but I don't think they should do it.

Done!

There we go. A challenge thread. Whatever you guys post here must be entertaining enough to keep mods interested in keeping it open. Person that is last to post before the lock is a donkey.
Hey mods, give it a chance.
No nasty, nude, or any other content that would be considered 18+ rated.

Damn. Too late.

Wat? What?

What does eye be for el mean?

Is this it for Chrome?

Does anyone konw if Chromecast will get any more "uses" developed for it? Any more apps or programs going to take advantage of Chromecase?

Once the SDK is finished and published I'll bet development picks up quite a bit.

I was hearing talk of this back before the thing came out, but still, no hulu plus. Man I know this will NEVER happen, but if the verizon NFL app would get on board with this, that we be sick.

Unless I'm mistaken, DIAL protocol wasn't designed to mirror...Miracast and others do this using their protocols.

I'd argue that I do understand and you do not. Which of course, brings us to the definition of ignorance.

So apparently you don't understand that:
The SDK isn't finished and Google is slow about it (Android Studio is still alpha quality).
There are more content providers on the way
That people who buy Android/ChromeOS devices that come to XDA do spend money on what you refer to as vague assurances (hence XDA exists).
So I really don't think it is me who does not understand here. Feel free to be a negative Nancy to drive away future Chromecast owners (or even current ones) due to your lack of understanding the issue though.

If you find that a reportable offense, you have bigger issues than a simple post report. Of course, you might want to report yourself as well for calling someone else ignorant. I didn't say you were ignorant, I said your response was. Ninja edit didn't catch it quick enough, friend.

Force OK Google to work!

I KNOW THIS THREAD WILL GET CLOSED BUT I CREATED IT TO BRING AWARENESS CAUSE I KNOW MOST WON'T REVISIT THE OTHER THREAD.
Type in " OK Google Everywhere" in the search app and then go to settings and you will now see the option.

"Shakes head and rolls eyes" at what? I created this thread to help you guys who still haven't figured out how to force "OK Google Everywhere".
The least you could of did was thank me or skip over this thread. I don't need your negativity!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app

Holy crap...it actually worked. I've been checking the settings relentlessly over the past few days to no avail. I checked immediately before doing this and the options weren't there. I searched "okay google everywhere" from the main search bar, went back to home, went to the search settings, and the options were there.
I'm sorry for not believing you lol but that's incredibly weird. Glad to have it though. Now my LG G Watch needs to arrive =P

Fer cryinoutloud it actually worked! Finally I can stop the cryin' and start a-talkin'!
Now if only someone would create a hack that lets us go back to using Hey Google instead.

As more and more people start getting access to this I'm sure Google will eventually give us an option to use other hotwords.

Normally I'd agree with your point, but here I think this thread has value - if perhaps for only a limited time. I've been reading the other thread religiously, but it -- like many threads lately, has become (understandably) heavily involved with operation on "L". It also branches off on many (valid) tangents on the subject - which is absolutely the point of the thread. However, easily lost in all that is this one simple tip that seems to resolve the one key, basic problem for those of us on KK who have the update & who are otherwise fully compliant and increasingly frustrated -- this gets it to work. So, for the sake of clarity & simplicity, I feel this is a perfectly reasonable & extremely valuable topic for the week or two... or three in which some number of us will be endlessly checking to see if we've finally had the feature flipped on. At the very least, the clarity of the thread title alerts members that some of us may actually need to "Force" it to work.
In other cases I'm not nearly so keen on breaking down subjects to such a granular level.

Go take a nap NaterTots, you're apparently grumpy. Despite what he wrote in the first post, this is a very helpful thread. The other thread didn't even have this solution, and goes about installing various APKs to get it working. In this case, you type 3 words into the app and it now works. Hugely nice.

That I kinda doubt. There was great flexibility in 4.4, but an early update (either KK or Search, can't recall which) cut us back to just OK Google. I suppose they wanted to limit chances of accidental triggers. With hotword everywhere I'd think they have even more of an incentive to keep this limitation in place. Ah well, it's no big deal but I can't help felling just a bit goofy reciting that script. :silly:

Nope no dice :crying:

Lousy 'trick' will only work on after the device is actually enabled. As to country-centred that's why I expected it to still work on UK English. I had only changed to US English out of frustration as I was waiting & waiting for the feature to kick in. I'm not actually in the UK, but I do prefer her speaking voice.

This kind of messed up my voice search. It recognized "ok google" to open up the search but nothing else. I had to delete Search data to get it working properly again. =\

Seems fine to me. The link is for a screen shot of his phone on a respectable site. There are no issues with this link. And has been posted above the issue is quite openly stated. He has a problem with a game.... Any useful suggestions would be welcome.

His wording did not suggest any issues on my mind.
Hopefully someone will be by shortly to assist.

Will probably need someone that has game to verify. Gonna be hard to find someone willing to pay $10 to test it.
