Hi everyone
I have the phrase set to OK Google Now.
When the phone is locked, screen off or even on moto display, quite a lot of the time saying the launch phrase will do nothing. When I unlock the phone it works perfectly fine. Then when I lock it, it works for a while but then after a bit it stops working until I unlock it again.
Is this some kind of bug that any of you have experienced also?
it kinda happens for me too. Even when it does get it, some commands are almost unusable. it just redirects to google search. is your phone a US one?
Moto XT1097 for the win
No I bought mine from Moto Maker in the UK. Hopefully it should be fixed in the next update.

The Moto X unlike the regular Ok Google which is available on all phones, is not only listening for the words to activate but also processes it to make sure its a close match to the voice used during the initial training setup. Try rerunning the voice training and record your voice without any accent, try speak casually the way you normally do trying to wake up your moto x. This should help
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.
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.

Anyone notice on the Nexus 6 that during the DP's that Google everywhere was disabled with screen off yet when PLUGGED IN it worked all the time and it worked PERFECTLY! Now that the official nougat is out it is back to that old OK GOOGLE Everywhere which only works like 20% of the time. Is there any way to remove and go back to the same Google voice search that most phones have since it worked 100% of the time.
Thanks in advance!
