Anyone know when we will get the new Google assistant that just debuted on the Google pixel announcement? I can't wait to use the lens features.

I already got it on mine earlier today. Not sure about the lens feature though.

Can someone link me to what is updated?

they're are the same, Google stated on the bottom: "*You do not need this app to use the Google Assistant if you already have the Google Assistant on your device."

Should be, the Google Assistant app on Play Store basically just a shortcut so almost every phone can download to use GA now, and it won't work without internet connection, all the functionality is stored on Google side not on the phone itself.

Good effort but the pop-up is annoying.
But capturing voice is a bit out of scope I guess. So yeah, it works as supposed.
How can I uninstall this app?
Thanks!

I cannot update VIE-L29C363B190 to Nougat
Hi,
Go to Google app>Settings>Voice>OK Google> Disable OK Google recognition on any screen. This happens after the latest Google app update and it should be addressed in future updates.

Prue Nexus : Exchange Sync

I am running Pure Nexus 7.1.2_r17 with Beans Gapps Mini 0610. I was able to configure the Exchange account but my contacts and calendar are showing exclamation marks for sync while the mail portion seems fine. Should I try to flash the version of Pure Nexus again to see if it resolves the issue? I checked the FAQ but found nothing.
Thanks.

Do you have https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.gm.exchange installed? I don't think it comes with the beans gapps.
@ktmom: Beans GApps doesn't have it, so he'll need to install it. For that matter, I don't think OpenGApps has it either.

Thanks for the reply. Interesting..... When I try to go to that link it tells me "Sorry! This content is not available in your country yet.We're working to bring the content you love to more countries as quickly as possible.Please check back again soon." I'm in Canada. Funny thing is that I left it to do other things cam back to it and restarted the services again and it works. I assume that you are pointing me to Google Exchange Servcies.... Don't understand how it would work without it. I'll do some more quick looking.... but thanks again.
Took a quick look before posting and found this http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/exchange-services/exchange-services-6-5-1791555-android-apk-download/. This is what you are talking about, right?

Yes, that's it.
Wonder why the play store blocks it in Canada? Think it's a NAFTA thing? [emoji48]

Google assistant

Anyone notice on their new pixel that the new assistant is not working? The assistant is Still the old one, which you'd need to keep squeezing or repeat the hey google phrase.
What language are you using? It didn't work for me when set to English (UK), but works when set to English(US). It seems it is limited to English(US) at the moment.
Also cannot be used with a GSuite account, has to be a personal Google account.
I've switch to english US and have always used a personal Gmail account. Not sure why it's not working. Might just wait for google to fix the damn thing.

Where are you from? It is U.S. exclusive. Not just the language setting English(US). Don't know if you knew that. I'm from germany and I won't get it until they open it for us...
I got my phone yesterday (in the UK) and once I set it the assistant to us US English it installed an update and just works using the new assistant style, so it's not U.S. exclusive in that sense. Thankfully they've also added UK English voices for the assistant to use when talking back (when set to U.S.)

I'm from Australia, but has set the language not english US, still no luck
After giving up a few times, I notice that I was missing the google home app. After downloading the home app, in settings there were an option under continue conversation where you can enable or disable "shared devices". I disable that option and, What do you know, after squeezing the phone for the assistant, it automatically update itself to the new assistant. Hope this help others too.
set to english US and it updated and works
in settings > assistant > languages
not language and region.
Any way to get continuous conversation to work without the gestures?
I don't use it
I just got off chat with Google rep and they told me it's a known issue that they are trying to fix.

Go to settings, search "continued", and toggle the option. Works with squeeze, "Hey, Google", or tapping the assistant icon on the search widget.

Only works with gestures.
I have 3 nav enable. I don't do Google gestures or any gesture for that matter

Oh! My bad. Didn't realize that was necessary. I read gestures and was thinking Motion Sense gestures. [emoji2359]
I know Android is all about options and all and sucks that it's not an option for the button based navigation but why not use gestures? It's very fluid and quick.

Sorry to hijack the thread but is anyone else having issues with the squeeze for assistant feature? Mine seems very temperamental.
If I leave my phone locked for a bit, then lift it, it unlocks and the squeeze is not working. I then have to tap on the power button to lock it again, unlock and it starts working again.

General I have an X90 Pro+ in the UK - AMA

Can confirm it's blisteringly fast and the camera is amazing.
Quick updates.....
Not tested yet - android auto.
Can't make work - vibration notifications.
Origin OS, I presume?
Any problems with Google apps?
Yup latest Origin.
Full Google play etc. No Google stuff that doesn't work I've found.
Gpay working too.

Not sure why but my gpay is not working.
Btw it looks like we can't remove some chinese stuff via adb without root .Which is sad.
Yeah I found that with ADB.
So Gpay is odd. The app doesn't work (not ready yet updating error) BUT allowing my bank to add the card to Google pay via its own app worked and allows me to use it.

What's your thoughts on the battery life with the new processor? Does it last a day after heavy usage?
What is the message or error you’re getting when trying to open Google Wallet?

Not ready as updating or something. But after I added a card via my banks app, it will let me pay fine. Just need to choose Google pay in the NFC settings.
But you can’t launch the Wallet app and for example switch between different cards, right? Did you try to reinstall, delete the app data and so on?
Can you check the power consumption of single core and multi core in Geekbench using perfdog? i can lend you an account and tell you how to measure it. It's not difficult.

Cheers mate. Its my only missing piece of info before pulling the trigger on purchasing. Seems to be plenty of reviews out there focusing on the camera quality
Shame about AA and Gpay though. Any other quirks worth mentioning?
Could you make screenshots or a simple screen recording of the camera app and all its features? Especially
Video mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
LOG / Cine Video Mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
Portrait Video Mode: Supported Resolutions and Framerates
Also: How would you root? Vivo still does not allow bootloader unlocking afaik, and the glitch from X70 and X80 seems to be fixed.
Does the timeline in Google maps work? Thank you
By the way is your phone ringing when you get a call on messenger ? I can't manage to get it ringing . It only vibrates with the screen off .
