My Nexus 6 phone insist on changing the "OK Google" detection from Off to Always On. No matter how many times I disconnect that feature, it changes to ON by itself, usually the next day.
Furthermore, as soon as I say "OK", not even "OK Google" it activates voice search.
Anyone else? Any known solution?
Its the NSA!

Every time my wife calls she says she can't hear me for perhaps 2-3 seconds after I think the call has connected.. My previous phone did not do this, but the Nexus One does.
Anyone heard of this, and have any suggestions? I have Google Voice call on by default, but she's calling my cell number so I don't think it'd affect anything. As far as I can tell, the call is connected, but she can't hear me say anything for several seconds. I usually wind up going "Hello? Hello? Hello?" and she finally answers.
Glad to see I am not the only one this happens to..well not glad but i just hope this means its not just my phone.
I know when they call one of my numbers (either Google Voice or Cell Phone # not sure which) it says incoming call from <Name> press 1 to answer and press 2 to send to voicemail
@sandtiger
this is from google voice it is a filter setting you can change by going to to the setting on the google voice website.
But this is a different issue (im assuming) then the OP

Yeah, I think I muddied the waters mentioning Google Voice, but these are calls directly to me cell number..
I might try disabling Google Voice just for S&G just to see what happens.. Seems when I place calls, they're connected when I expect them to be, but the delay could be more critical when answering.
I haven't yet, but going to try calling myself from my work phone to see what kind of delay I'm hearing.
I am having this problem also...did you ever find a solution?
Using BT headset by any chance?
In that case, it's normal.
Nope, no headset. Just the phone.
I need to test some more, but I think this has gone away for me.. Delay answering, plus the other party was "dropping out" often, ie: if it got quiet on their end, their voice disappeared entirely, and sometimes faded in or out while doing so.
Only thing I've changed is I disabled Google Voice as being my default call method, but this thread is about answering calls so I doubt it matters, especially since the calls were directly to my cell number not my GV number.
I might turn GV back on the way I had it and test some more, but maybe it was something weird with AT&T?
Im noticing this problem too, both on 2.1 and 2.2.
It seems to be a problem specific to AT&T N1's.
I also experience this. I've adjusted to swiping the answer button, pausing, then saying "Hello." I typically pause about 0.75 or 1 full second, and rarely do I need to do it longer.
The opposite seems to be true of the vibrate-on-connect feature: about 1 second after the person picks up, then the phone vibrates in my hand. How is that useful?! =P
I've experienced a couple of problems recently and I'm not sure if it's a bug or something they changed with the last update. I'm on 4.4.2 with Sprint.
Previously, when I tried to call a business (i.e. "Call Pizza Hut"), it would find it via Google Now and make the call. Recently, I've noticed that if the business is not listed in my contacts, it will try to call one of my contacts.
Also, if there's a contact with more than one phone number, it used to give you a prompt to confirm whichever number you're trying to call. Now, it just calls the default number.
Has anyone else noticed this and do you know of a fix?

Unfortunately, I have the same exact issue on Republic Wireless (Sprint MVNO) 4.4.2 and haven't found a solution....
Strangely, the issue seems to come and go. Additionally, the voice recognition is WAYYY off....it will try to call a contact that doesn't even sound like who I'm trying to call.
My solution is to instead, turn the screen on, then hit the microphone icon (top right corner). From there if you say "Call Pizza Hut", it seems to work 100% of the time.
I agree that the issue is quite irritating. Hopefully a future update to Touchless Controls fixes this.
It will be interesting to see if those on later android versions also experience the same issue...
Are you also experiencing the 2nd problem?
Voice recognition doesn't seem to be an issue for me.

Nope, just confirmed -- tried to call a contact with 2 numbers in phonebook (cell & home) and the phone responded:
"I found two matches. Say the name after you hear the one you want to call. 'Person' home. 'Person' cell."

Yea, that's what mine used to do. Now it just calls the top number.
Mainly for answering and making calls. And sending/reading the occasional text.
This is for someone who can't see and has severe arthritis so talk back wouldn't work. She could barely grasp the phone let alone move her fingers around.
The problem I'm having is that "Ok Google" doesn't work on the phone app. When someone calls there is no way to say something "OK Google...Answer phone" also you can't say hang up. That one isn't as big of deal since it'll exit the phone app when the other person hangs up.
I realize I'll have to use Tasker to create those commands but is there anyway to have it listen during ringing/the conservation?
Nexus 6 (Verizon) completely stock right now on 5.1.
Oh, also can anyone tell me why Google Now doesn't ask you Mobile or Home when you tell it to call someone on the Nexus? On my LG G3 (with 5.0) if I say "Call soandso" it comes back and speaks Mobile or Home and then you can say one of the two and it will dial.
Well, I found out the answer. It can't be done with lollipop. There is no way to use the Take Call command in tasker even if you are rooted.
The phone is going to be kind of useless for any incoming call. Outgoing will still work okay.
I'm on Sprint, I have a Nexus 6 and my wife a Note 4. Over the past week or two I've had an issue where my wife can call me, and immediately after answering, the call will end. This has happened with her calling from her cell phone and her office phone, both of which are attached to her contact. I can call out with no problem, and I've tested calling my phone from different numbers and had no problem. No clue whats going on.
Internet searches have come up dry. Any ideas?
EDIT: Oh, forgot to mention that I'm rooted and running the latest Chroma (5/3/15 r2) and franco combo.

I think you just don't wanna talk to your wife =P hahaha jk! sorry I couldn't resist.
This is happening to me too. Only with my fiancé. We both have N6's on sprint, and every time she calls me when I answer it immediately hangs up. It never happens when I call her though.

Went online and disconnected my number from Google Voice, and that *seems* to have done the trick.
Maybe its a feature

Having this too. I don't want to remove Google Voice integration though. Any other thoughts? It's my wife's phone also. Funny how it is all our wives/girlfriends and no one else.
Update (6/29): Maybe this is fixed now as I seem to be able to answer my wife's incoming call the past few times now.
Hi,
I've been using P20 pro for a couple months now. Something I've not figured out how to do is make it so ok Google only activates when I say it. Several times when I'm watching a video regarding OK Google or a friend says "OK Google" my voice assistant activates. I was previously able to train my voice on my old Samsung. I've gone through the settings tried training it but still anyone can activate my Google assistant and it's getting a bit annoying. Is there any fix to this problem. I would really like to use my Google mini home as well.
THANK you!

For unlocking the device it recognizes only enrolled voice. After unlock it will detect any voice.
