Running stock fresh flashed factory image of Android 6. It appears that "OK Google" no longer works from any screen. I've gone in to Google>Settings>Voice>"OK Google" detection and confirmed "from any screen" is turned on. I've tried clearing cache in apps of the Google App, retraining the voice model, but still no luck. "OK Google does work from the home screen but nowhere else. It worked fine in the 3rd Developer Preview so I'm kind of aggravated at this issue..
For me it works from any screen. Running Android 6 stock rooted. But I was a little bit surprised because I haven't set up it and haven't trained the voice model.

Since global and lock screen enabled hotword detection of "OK GOOGLE" was released on my phone officially(~8 months), I've used it daily. About two weeks ago, it stopped working.
I have taken quite a few steps to diagnose the issue, including everything in this thread, however, it still doesn't work.
Right now, I can't retrain the voicemodel and that's where its been stuck since just after it stopped working.When I attempt to toggle the checkbox to enable hotword detection "From Any Screen", it takes me to the "OK GOOGLE" voice training screen.from here it simply does not recognize ok google.
I had push bullet and microsoft remote control which were both mentioned as possible causes, I uninstalled them both, rebooted and still no luck. in addition, I've tried everything mentioned in this thread, as well as the HTC Microphone diagnostic, both mic tests passed
Can Anyone Help please,
Completely stock AT&T HTC ONE M7
Please, Anyone?
BUMP DITTY BUMP, Please help!!!!!!
I switched from the Moto Voice app to the OK Google because the Moto X voice app is terrible. Everything was working great until a few days ago. OK Google only works from the home screen now. Does anyone else have this issue? Is there a work-around to fix it? Thanks!
I'm assuming that the "From any screen" option is checked in the Google app?

Correct, and I did the training. It works perfectly on my Moto G. My Moto X has been acting quirky so I am getting an advanced replacement from Motorola. They are now charging a $25 "Premium Fee" for advance replacement. I hate this company ever since Lenovo took over and this will be my last Motorola phone.
Having the same issue.
Starting to regret this phone deeply.
I just realized that I hadn't checked it since my update to 5.1, and it no longer works for me either. It is not a feature I use, but it is a shame that it is broken.
Me neither, which makes me think it's a server side error.
Broken on my Moto X running 5.1 stock or CM 12.1 and my Nexus 5 in the same scenarios, so I think it's a bug in the app not with our phone.

These certainly sound like the most likely causes, however, is it strange that we are the only people talking about this? If it were a global problem, I would think more people would be complaining.
I had this exact issue and figured out quite a simple fix.
All you need to do is going to the "Moto" app and disable the "Moto Voice" function. The moto voice function apparently takes control of the mic at all times, stopping google now from doing so. Once I disabled the Moto Voice, I could enable Google Now / Ok Google from all screens and didn't get the "microphone is in use, please restart device" error message anymore.
Hope this helps

This is not the problem being discussed here. The problem is, after being setup properly, the "OK Google" command only works on the homescreens. Not on the lock screen, not when an app in is the foreground. Are you able to use "OK Google" in these instances?

It seems intermittent ever since the last Motorola OTA I received. I can't seem to do OK google from my homescreen anymore although it will occasionally wake from lock screens and in an app if I use it, it will pull me out of the app to the Google Now search screen. I think the whole thing is pretty much bugged to be honest :/
I've found just going into the google search and hitting the mic button much more reliable and thus faster.
Anyone else experiencing this?
When the phone's screen is off but not yet locked, I try to "okay google" to send a text or set an alarm/reminder or ask a query, the screen doesn't come on. You can still send the text or perform the activity but the screen is off.
I experience this sometimes
Turned out for me Google on tap causes this. Anytime it's disabled okay Google from sleep works perfectly.

This happened to me a while ago. I just cleared "Google App" cache and data and worked fine afterwards.

Don't forget that after clearing the apps data you will have to retrain Google Now's voice model (saying OK Google 3x's).

No go for me. cleared it, set everything back up and screen still says black when saying "OKAY google" although it still works but the screen just doesn't come on. I have to disable google on tap for the screen to turn on when initiating an "okay google" command from sleep.
Curious to see if anyone else is having success with using their voice to start commands on this watch. I have the "OK Google" recognition turned on. However, it never responds. If I restart the device, then it will recognize the command and proceed as normal.
All other voice prompts work as normal (after touching the screen of course). Not sure if I need to enable another setting.
thanks!
I just got this watch and had a similar issue. It seemed to work ok with one account on the watch. If I put my work account on it stopped working. It was set to the correct account etc. I reset 4 times, and each time the second account would mess it up. Eventually I discovered that there was an app update to androidwear on the watch that happened in the back ground that may actually be the culprit (discovered by some trials). I've only had the watch 3 days ago I'm still working on it. Last night when I went to bed, it was working. We'll see this morning. Also found out that needed to say "OK Google" slower. This is my 4th search watch and most finicky for sure!
i think I just found the answer: http://www.androidpolice.com/2017/1...-android-wear-fix-smartwatchs-stuttering-lag/
to summarize, disable the ok google detection, and the watch speeds up dramatically. i can confirm this. but I really did not want to lose the ok google feature. but I read (and tested) that my long-pressing on the big button, google assistant pops up. this is an acceptable alternative for me.
hope this helps others.
When I was on Ver 2.0, "Ok Google" seldom worked. I gave up on it working.
I have reverted back to Ver 1.5 about a month ago and now, "Ok Google" works every time and very quickly.
Not sure if this is a fault, but think it is, since I got my phone in December, "OK Google" works most of the time, but when it doesn't I have to manually activate it, by squeezing or swiping up from the bottom corner, once that's done it works again for a while.
The phone has been restored multiple times and upgrade when the newest updates are available.
Anyone had this before
Thanks Steve
