I have the same problem... I notice that this started since I installed Xposed, maybe is related somehow. Also if I force close Google Search the voice commands just turn off.

same here, lollipop stock with EU firmware, no root. Seems like this beahviour is following the latest and recent Moto app update.
Didn't enabled Ok Google Hotword anyway.

[Q] GPS issue after update 4.4.3

Hey guys!
I have a problem on my unlocked Moto X (1058).
After the last update (4.4.3), my GPS is losing lock everytime. I'm used to use my Moto Assist on my Moto X to listen any incoming message and call, but after this update, my GPS shows my location almost 1 km far from my home and, due that, Moto Assist is not working properly.
I realized this issue happened only with "High Precision" mode (the one that uses 3g and wifi, found in Settings > Localization) activated. "Only in device" mode shows my correct location, but I can't use Moto Assist like this.
It wasn't happening with 4.4.2. Do anybody have any idea of what it could be? I have already cleanend some apps caches, full reset, but the problem keeps going on.
I'm kind sorry for my english.
Thanks,
I have an unlocked XT1053 on 4.4.3 and use high accuracy with the gps on in Location. I had difficulty initially getting Assist Home to work, but finally got the home location set. I took about a half mile walk one evening and after returning home, Assist still didn't work. I turned off the phone for the evening and when I started it the next morning, Assist started working all by itself. It has been flawless since.
Even I am having GPS signal issues with my X updated to 4.4.3

Hmmm I am having GPS issues too. I am on Verizon with a locked boot loader and write protection disabled. NOTE: I have NOTE updated to 4.4.3 but i did get the new version of assist the day before I started having problems. However, uninstalling Assist did not fix the problem. I talked to Verizon and Moto and neither new of an issue.
Anyone know whats causing this???

Screen off - Ok Google OR Moto Voice ?

Hi all
I am running lollipop and was wondering if I should use the moto custom voice to wake device with screen off, or use the one built into lollipop in Google now.
Is one better than the other ?
Besides being able to use a custom phrase on moto voice ?
I remember reading somewhere that the Google works better cuz its direct.
Any feedback would be much appreciated
Thanks and have a great weekend

Try them both, pick which one you like better.
Google Now can't wake your device unless it is charging.
Only Moto voice will work with the screen off of its not charging.

That's not correct. Lollipop has it built into the OS. Check under google now / settings and voice (voice detection). It's there. Screen off as well. And I think it works better than the moto x one after testing.
I'm well aware of it supposedly being built into lollipop. But it doesn't work with the screen off on the moto X unless its being charged. I've disabled moto voice, enabled google now voice detection from any screen and turned the screen off. Said "OK Google" nothing happens. There have been a few of us here that have tried it and it doesn't work. It does work, though, when it's being charged. If you're able to get it to work please let us know how you did it because I would rather use Google now.
My Google settings on CM 12. Does not work unless plugged in for me.
Haha my bad. I also have a nexus 6 so when I went to my moto X I assumed that it was the same. And I guess I tested it with the screen on. And alas, upon trying it, you are right. It doesn't work when the screen is off. Oops
This thread is close to the question I was researching but my question is more generic. I just got my new MotoX a couple days ago and I'm confused, what is the difference between Google Now or the Moto Voice apps? My old phone was a MotoX 2013 so I'm used to using Google Now for everything, now my new X seems to have two apps that do the same thing? What's the deal?

Moto Voice can wake up your phone, which Google Now cannot. Moto Voice can read your your new notifications (either on command, or during a set period of time), Google Now cannot. Most other voice commands are heard by Moto Voice, and then passed over to Google Now. The two don't really overlap in their abilities. They work together to give you the best of both worlds.

Moto Voice Not Working Properly

Recently I've noticed that my Moto Voice isn't working like it should.
For example, it'll only allow me to ask it one question, then any following questions and it'll ignore them with a sound as if it has rejected my voice.
I've already reset my phone to factory settings before anyone asks but it's not made a difference.
Even if I ask if what the weathers like, it'll say half of the first word then go silent but still display the right info on the screen.
Anyone else getting this?
I'm not rooted and am running on Marshmallow if it helps.
I've tried retraining my voice and cleared the cache of the Moto app but no luck.

How did you get Moto Voice to work, I can't get it to work with Moto App

Google assistant

Just wondering if anyone else has had an issue with Google Assistant telling you she can't do something until the device is unlocked? This just happened this morning when I told Google to set and alarm after browsing the web. I got the above response. Tried a restart, did it again. Retrained voice.. still did it. I finally just went to apps and cleared all data and cache​ for Google app. That seems to have worked. Weird issue to have. Phone was unlocked whole time.

this isnt an issue, this is on purpose because someone cant take your phone and do random stuff with it.

a work-around for this might be setting up "trusted voice" . Google Now, settings, voice, ok google detection, switch on "trusted voice". Sorry if you've done this already.
Ahh I'm having Google assistant issues it always seem to disconnected whenever I need it.. It does not recognize okay Google or even when I press the Google widget I have to go to chrome and google things there and voice does not work there... But people can hear me normal when I make phone calls or send whats app... And i disabled and reinstalled good app already

Weird behavior after using Moto Voice

Greetings everyone,
I originally posted this on the Lenovo official forums but haven't receive any feedback. I was wondering if anyone else had encountered this issue. After a fresh (re)boot, my phone will work as expected using the standard speaker for calls in and out. However, after using Moto Voice once or twice to make calls out all incoming and outgoing calls start with speakerphone no matter what I do. I've confirmed this behavior in safe mode - it's only after using Moto Voice. Google Assistant can be used and not trigger the issue.
Has anyone else had this happen?
Maybe clear data and cache and see if that helps? I'm not really familiar with Moto Voice but have you considered Google Assistant? I just assumed Moto Voice(and similar apps like Samsung Bixby) are just OEM's trying to harvest the data for their own use rather than giving it to Google.

I did a clear cache and data on all Moto apps, still persisted. As mentioned, Google Assistant works fine without triggering the issue but I'd still like to confirm if this is a Moto bug or something else interfering.
