I recently flashed my XT1096 with CM13, and replaced the stock launcher with Nova Prime as I usually do. However after enabling the "OK Google" hotword in Nova Launcher, and enabling the "OK Google" hotword in the Google Now app, I still can't seem to trigger it with the hotword outside of the home screen. I haven't been able to find anything about why this isn't working, so hopefully someone can shed some light...
Same thing for me on stock unrooted 5.0 and 6.0.
Don't know when or why it stopped working, but it led me to turn Moto Voice back on.

That's great and all but if I do that then cyanogen mod will stop giving support on issues. Besides, this is an option built into the Google app and nova launcher. It works with the launcher when on the desktop but not on any screen like the Google app says it should do.
It doesn't work on stock either. The phone is expecting you to use Moto Voice and for some reason that causes the Google Now voice recognition to take a back seat.

I really enjoy stock, and am on Pacman ROM right now, I've tried CyanogenMod and a few others and feel like I missing out on something.
My question is, is there anyway to make it so I don't have to use the Google now launcher to see the google now swipe left screen, or use The "OK Google" voice search function?

So from what i can tell phones using DSP chips will be able to use ok google now from stock android. Our Moto X's do use that for the Motorola assist features. Does this mean that android lollipop could help go around moto assist? I don't like the delays that Moto assist comes with, and getting to use Google now through stock would be amazing. They only mention that Nexus 6 and 9, will be able to use it, but i don't see why our phone wouldn't be able to.
It might be able to in theory, but is it possible to disable assist? Havent got the phone so i dont know lol

Yes, assist can be disabled. The problem is because assist and the files for it are installed, it disables one from saying "ok, google" and letting google now take over. Assist needs to be on if you want to do voice related things. Unless I'm missing something, I haven't found a way to allow google now voice commands to work with assist on or off

If you disable Moto Voice, Google Search "Ok Google" will work just fine....
I know if you turn moto assist off it will allow ok google hotword with the google launcher. So hopefully the files that allow lollipop to use dsp chip will be included in the software, so it doesn't have to be integrated into moto voice. Cant wait for Lollipop, had L with my Nexus and coming back to kitkat was like a slap to the face.

I know that on the 2013 X this did not work. There is an internal, hidden config flag in Google Search that lists the devices on which hotword detection is permanently disabled -- meaning that nothing you did to to moto touchless controls would help.
That being said, there is an app out there, UnleashTheGoogle, that will un-hide all of the hidden settings in Google Search and then you can just remove your phone from the blacklist (if the '14 X is in there)
So after the recent Moto Voice update, i can't get the Google Now hot word Detection to work at all. Going into Google Settings to try to train it to listen to me, it won't activate the mic at all to listen to me, completely refuses too. Plus, to top it off, Moto Voice now says "Opening Google" Whenever it is too retarded to be able to do what i want it to with my voice, which is ridiculous. I Force closed Moto Voice, and the google now search bar had the mic showing that it was ready for voice. (The filled in one.) but did not respond to Ok Google, and by the time i went to train it, Moto Voice had restarted. I might try freezing Moto Voice with Titanium and seeing if i can get google now to work then. All in all, this is disappointing as it stands.
Ok! So Freezing the Moto Voice app did it for me. (That or yelling ok google at my phone for 5-10 minutes in the training voice part of Google Now Voice Settings.) Regardless i can activate Ok Google again from any screen. Though, my Google Now Settings includes the check box for google searching from the Lock Screen, it doesn't seem to work. That might come with Lollipop proper... -crosses fingers.
Edit: It will allow it to Google Search from lockscreen , But not with sound off... that is the feature that might come with Lollipop.
I'm hoping I post this into the right forum. Please forgive me if it needed to be posted somewhere else.
I'm really high on the "OK Google" detection feature. Right now I'm using the latest nightly of Cyanogenmod (which I love) but the OK Google detection is broken. Even in the Google app, saying "Ok Google" does nothing, and when I try to set it up to work from any screen, it says "Can't use the microphone. Restart device." and doesn't recognize me saying Ok Google.
Has anyone found a non-Touchwiz rom with working OK Google detection?
I would use Touchwiz, but the lagging has become unbearable.

I fixed my own problem by regressing to the older Google version in:
gapps-5.1-2015-04-20-15-56-24.zip
I was using the 5-3 google apps.
Is there any problem with "Ok Google" on Z1? It does not react when the phone is locked (in standby or even on but locked). This works seamlessly on my Asus Transformer TF701T. Settings on both devices is same.

Have you enable this setting in the "Google Now Launcher" settings, not the xperia home settings, I can't remember exactly which one it is, but it should be under the 'Voice' Settings. It works as I have already tried it.
I don't want to install the Google Launcher. Do I really have to? I don't have it on my other device where everything is fine.

Just install it, set it up and then uninstall it as far as I am aware the feature still exist or really you could just install it, but do not switch to google now, just stay on xperia home.
Ok, I'll try it. I will uninstall it then as I don't want to mess up the device. What the heck is different on the Z1? I'll let you know if it worked.
So I have installed the Google Launcher, went to Settings but the settings are the same as voice settings in OS itself. This did not help, "OK Google" still works only when the phone is on and unlocked...
Everything works after Lollipop upgrade
Using CM 13 (28/04 build). One thing that is bugging me out for sometime, which is 'Ok google' detection from any screen is missing in Google Now settings.
On stock 6.0, Moto Voice serves as a back-end to Google Now search. So it kinda works from any screen and even if the screen is off.
So yeah, if anyone has any work around for it to act like 'always listening' , do tell. I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.
No reply? ?
same here, ok google not working on NX ROM and RR ROM...i've tried in both, it does not works from any screen or with screen off....it only works from the google app itself
I'm on RR rom
i guess it has something to do with the google apps....which gapps you're using ? i'm using nano gapps
I have the same problem too. I am on NX Rom, NX Gapps.
I am using Micro Gapps. I will try Stock Nexus gapps from OpenGapps.

Tried the Stock Nexus Gapps. Sadly, no it didn't work out. I heard a lot of devices are missing 'ok google from anywhere' option in google now launcher settings ,including the famous Nexus 5X. Recently the update to google app broke it. I hope it works in the future though.
Some also say, Google disabled 'always on' feature to save up battery and people were accusing Google of spying on users through that function.
I gave up, may be I will return to Stock 6.0 (Moto Voice FTW! ?) , may be not. [emoji4]

Google is blocking this app. now.
All the search commands and queries go through a separate server which appears to me a lot shady, not to mention all those permissions one has to provide after installing the app.
Last but not the least it's a battery hog. It eats up battery like hell cause of triggering so many wake locks so many times.

yeah you can give it a shot if you're on a custom rom, it doesn't matter even if you're not on a custom rom, just don't use GNL use some other launcher like nova and delete GNL if you have root access then install nova launcher and should work fine

yes that's the problem, google has disabled this maybe in the future updates it will be there again like it was and that's why i'm using open mic+ without any issues, you can set custom phrase like moto voice and also works on lockscreen or even if the screen is off and its really fast, but don't use open mic+ with google now launcher, it won't be accurate or it won't response that well, if you are rooted and have Google Now Launcher installed i suggest you to delete GNL and use nova launcher instead
here's the apk of open mic+ and use it with nova launcher and delete google now launcher
