Google Assistant able? - OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers

Has anyone here been able to get google assistant working by updating google play services to 10.5.37? I've upgraded and haven't seen the assistant pop up..
Am i missing something?
Edit: just found out that it depends on where or not Google puts your account into it. I guess updating Play Services is just part of the equation?

No assistant here too...

That is correct, Google have to enable Assistant for your account on the server side, then the Google Now will automatically be replaced by Assistant.

You probably know..
But while you're waiting for Google to flip switch for you,, then if you install Google Allo you get the full assistant inside that application

Missing Ok Google From any screen

Hello World,
I'm missing the 'Ok Google From Any Screen' option from the google app.
i'm running Minimal OS 5.1.1 Latest build.
My Google App and Google Play Serices are up to date.
Do I miss an import app or is this not supported by this rom?

Running the same rom and it's working without any problems. You have to enable it in google settings, In my case I reach them from nova launcher.

Chinese Mate S

Hello. I've just been given a Mate S from work but it's the Chinese version so no Google apps. What are my options? As it's from Huawei through work I'll call rooting plan b. There's no way to flash an International factory image without rooting right?
If you go to the Huawei App Store you can install Google Play Store from there.
I did this when i converted my phone to chinese version. Only problem I had was contacts wouldnt sync, but if you download GoogleContactSynch.apk (you'll have to google search for that) then contacts syncs work fine.
Yeah i did that and then tried to install the Google Launcher and disable as much bloat as i could. Google Launcher wouldn't work for some reason. Will give it another go tomorrow.

You need to change the standard launcher under Settings - Apps - Standard apps
You can download Google Contact Sync and Google Calendar Sync from Huawei App Store. Search for Google and click the banner on top to see all the Google apps
Already tried when i was playing about with it a few days ago. Google Launcher wasn't listed even though it's installed.
I've just switched it on again now and it detects it. :good:

Google Assistant

I had the google assistant the other day and now its gone again, anyone's else had this?
I'm in the UK if that makes any difference.
For now, google assistant is not avaible everywhere, because it was made especially for google pixel, so maybe there was an update for your phone, but you disabled Google Assistant, try checking your Google settings on phone, if everything is as it should be.
Try installing the latest beta version of Google play services.

I installed version 10.5.37 beta and Google assistant activated. I'm from the Philippines so I'm not supposed to receive it yet.

Change your phones language to English US. Then clear Play Services and Google app cache.
Assistant should appear after a restart and a few minutes.
It's re-appeared again now let's hope it stays

How do I enable Google Assistant? Have latest Google play services & Google App.

I have Google play services version 11.0.47 : I have signed up for beta testing on Google play
Google App version : 7.2.20.21
Language : English (US)
I have tried clearing all data under "Manage Data" for both the apps and restarted.
But I still get only Google now on tap. Not Google Assistant. What am I missing?
My phone : Moto X 2014 : purchased in the US, never rooted.
Same for my wife and I. Same phone, same situation. Can't find anyone or any forum that has a solution. Must be a problem with Google and Motorola.

You can try this way
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/android-7-0-google-assistant-t3535257
Success for me.
Finally found a fix
No root or side loading required, and unlike what it says in the post, it activates with a home button long press!
I tried the first option. Let me know if it works! https://www.xda-developers.com/get-google-assistant-on-android-lollipop-marshmallow-nougat-tablets-without-root/

Google Play updating manually installed apps

Hello, I manually installed an app apk from the developers website. The app is also on the play store, but was curious how this works.
How did google play know I stalled the app? How was the app updated without downloading it through the plays for? Is Google Play constantly scanning my phone?
Thanks!

If you didn't turn off auto update in Play settings then Google Play will update apps on its own.

Correct. I turned it off afterwards. But how did Google Play know I even had the app? I installed it manually via APK transfer from PC.

I do. I don't install many apps from other places except Apkmirror and Google is probably spying on me already. LOL spying on my phone would be one of the most boring jobs ever.
