"Ok Google" works once, then I have to wait one minute for it work again. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I had this issue with my note 4 stock rom (6.0.1), so installed a custom rom that worked fine for about 2 days. Then, suddenly, the problem appears again. I say "ok Google" and the command. Works fine. If I need to say a second command, it does not work. I need to wait for about a minute, then "OK Google" works again. And wait another minute for a third command.
Reinstalled the apps , cleared cache, battery is not on economy mode, retrained my voice model and nothing seems to work. Anyone had this problem? Need help. Thanks.

Guess I found a temporary solution my friend. Went to apkmirror.com and downloaded Google App 8.55.3 beta by Google LLC, the most recent. Mine was 8.44 but could not upgrade even on playstore. Disabled automatic updates on playstore too. As my phone is rooted, I was able uninstall my old version and installed this 8.55 beta. Now works like a charm. Try it!

Problem with Google maps. Anyone

Mine has been working well after the update. Try clearing the data then uninstall, reboot, and reinstall.

Same issue here. Running Only1 base. I have to clear app data every week or it gets stuck repeating the route from the state I was previously working in. The map directions are accurate, but the voice keeps saying to turn on a road from the previous week. Over and over and over again. Crazy.

Why don't you guys use a NAV app that doesn't need data connection? I've been using CoPilot Live Premium and haven't had any problems whatsoever.

Same problem, Galaxy Nexus VZW on JellyBean, was having the issue on ICS as well. Did an uninstall/clear cache...worked for a while, and then started repeating again. Only thing that fixes it temporarily is clearing the app's data.
Happens to me once a week. Go to applications in settings, force stop maps, clear data, and reopen maps/nav. Problem solved. Its getting very annoying though, to do this once or twice a week.

I had the same problem on the Team Perfection ROM, in addition to it not using my Ivona TTS voice or speaking street names. Clearing cache and data didn't help, neither did an uninstall and reinstall from Play. What DID work however, was installing an older version apk I found (which kept FC for some reason), and then updating that version from Play. (Sorry, I don't recall which version it was, but I downloaded it from Aptoide.) After that, everything worked perfectly again. I noticed other people complaining about the same problem in Play's comments section. Really strange, but at least it works again for me.
Settings > Language & input > text to speech output.
Changing this to Pico TTS fixed it for me.
This has been happening on my phone (Verizon Galaxy Nexus on 4.1.1 JB AOKP build 2) on and off for a few months now, it first started happening right before android 4.1 Jellybean was officially announced. *It was at that precise time that the voice for Google Maps Navigation changed to be the same voice that Google Now uses in Jellybean. I remember there was a period of time where I would hear both voices like they hadn't finished converting all of the speech over to the new voice. It's been ever since then but this problem has been happening, I have noticed the clearing cache seems to sometimes stop it from happening only to return again randomly.

what rom and kernel are you currently using?..The flicker is a issue with some roms..editing the maxlayer overlay build prop helped with alot of people.

Pandora app crashing seconds after it opens.

Hey all, I seem to be having an issue with the Pandora app. It is an app I use heavily, which it crashing is driving me bonkers.
Here's what happens. I open the app and it stays open until it starts to play/load music. The moment the artist information shows up the app closes itself. I had flashed the debloat script and rooted the phone. Then I disabled swap and of course, installed all my apps. Later I noticed the Pandora app crashing problem. I figured it was probably something the debloat script removed that I might have needed so I recovered to stock and only restored root. Low and behold, Pandora worked fine. I spent an hour or two listening and reading a book. I paused it so I could prepare for bed and when I hit play, it crashed again. Tried rebooting the phone, clearing the apps cache/data and reinstalling. Nothing seems to work. The app is set as a protected app in the settings. Also, I have the KIW-L24(USA) model.
tldr: Read the title
Hoping someone has some hints they could throw my way. It seems curious that the app would work for a few hours then only stop working after I paused and then hit play again. If anyone has any advice, please shoot it my way.
What software build do you have? This issue was previously reported, but it should be fixed by now. Also, what version is the Pandora app?

Build number: KIW-L24C567B140
Pandora: version 6.9.2 (I have Pandora One, just in the off chance that would matter?)
I just cleared the app cache, deleted the app data, uninstalled, then booted into twrp, cleared the dalvik cache and rebooted (as I stated in the first post, I had done this all before). It now seems to be working. If it begins to crash a third time, I'll update.
And it started crashing again. I may have found the culprit. Everything was kosher until I allowed notifications. When I did the app crashed, with near instant crashes there on. Shut off notifications for Pandora in settings and it works like a charm.
Edit: I can repeat this issue by enabling/disabling notifications. A bit annoying, bit at least the app works.

"Ok Google" not working

My clock only responds to "Ok Google" maybe 2 out of 10 times. When it works (or when I swipe to "Speak now" manually) the voice control is almost flawless (I'd say 95% success rate), so it obviously understands me.
What could be wrong and is there something I could do about it?

I have exactly the same problem but with the 360 sport. If I delete and retrain the voice model on my phone it seems to temporarily fix the issue. Have tried factory reset, removing the wear app and reinstalling all to no avail. Have you had any luck? Im going to try pairing to a different phone to see if it's my phone or the watch. If that doesn't work I'm returning thE watch.

That won't do any difference. I've tried another Moto 360 with another phone and it works as bad on the "Ok Google" part.
Retrain the command doesn't work when using another language than English so I haven't tried that.
I don't have scientific proof, but I believe different watch face apps provide different results. When I have had the "OK Google" problem, changing the watch face solved it.

I haven't noticed any difference and most watch faces have been the stock ones that comes with Moto 360.
in my opinion, the stock watch faces respond faster than custom watch faces
I've had the same problem from Day One, the response to the keyword is far more haphazard than it was with my LG G Watch, but the speech recognition once past that is about the same; changing how I say "Okay Google" seems to be the only thing that makes any difference.

Same for me. I had the LG Watch R before (a year ago) and it was working flawless. Thinking about buying the Fossil Q Founder. But new watches will be out soon when Google releases Wear 2.0, I guess.
Just to update. I recieved my replacement moto 360 sport. The 'ok google' command still only works about 20% of the time. It seems apparent this is a software issue as the mic and voice recognition seem to work fine. I hope this is fixed in wear 2.0 or another update.
In the meantime my workaround was to create a floating icon in AutoWear that launches GoogleNow on my watch. Now I just press the icon on my watch whenever I need to launch GoogleNow to set an alarm/reminder etc.

How do you launch Google Now? It's not available under system apps.
So for me it shows an an available system app in autowear 'mange app actions' section (see attachment). If it's not in your version maybe it is a beta feature. I signed up for the beta test release :

I've done some testing and it worked all of the times except one. But that time I just said "Ok, Google" again and it worked. Before it has never worked after a fail without letting the watch be for a long while.
I'll test it more the coming days.

audible ready beep

When I activate google with a voice command I no longer get an audible ready beep and unable to get voice toolbar on home screen. Anybody else having this problem using Google Now launcher.
Is it normal for the device to be listed as pixel even though I'm using the Google Now launcher under Google settings
Plz dont use beta version , mine had same bug

'Ok Google' voice phone unlocking doesn't work.

Hi,
As you may have known, ok Google issue has been solved in recent miui 10 stable update. Now it offers to unlock the device using voice match even when the display is turned off.
Now even I say ok Google when the screen is turned off, it does wake the device but it's still locked and it shows me pattern unlock.
How to unlock the device so that I can pass an actual command to Google assistant?
Thanks
My phone just updated to MIUI Global 10.0 (10.0.4.0 OEJMIFH) and it was fixed.
Now I can say 'Ok Goolge' and it opens assistant.
Phone unlocking by voice command is disabled by miui and afaik even Google is removing this feature from assistant, security reasons probably

Yes, I did that. It does wake up the device but doesn't unlock it.
Edit: Sorry. I wasn't facing the same issue. I was facing the issue where the Google Assistant wasn't working properly, and it would show me the error "unable to open microphone".
I found the solution on the MIUI forums. Here's what I did...
You have to go to the Google app in "Installed Apps" and clear the cache and the data and reboot, and it'll start working fine.
It was a little tricky to find the Google app as it wouldn't show in the Installed Apps. You have to click on the 3 dots on the upper right side corner and select "Show all apps" and then it'll show up. After that, you just clear the cache and the data and reboot phone, and it'll start working properly
Nevertheless, I tried your solution and it didn't work either way.

Don't get your hopes high about this feature's implementation on OEMs. Google were already silently phasing-out this feature and the OEMs will soon to follow.

It sort of works for me (Stable 10.0.6.0). However, following those instructions it only wakes the phone, but doesn't unlock. But - after getting to that point, I went into the Google assistant, settings, voice, voice match and it let me select the slider - gave me a warning about being less secure, and then it woke up AND unlocked via voice.
Unfortunately, it then failed to do it the next time I tried it and asked for my pattern/face. Not sure if it requires log in sometimes and not others, or if the first time was just luck!
At one point it would wake up and let me ask a question, but only read or show me the answer when I unlocked, but now it won't even do that, so basically it's completely inconsistent! hurrah!
Clearly some sort of security issue - whether it's Xiaomi or Google's fault is up for debate, but if Google are removing it from their flagship then I wouldn't be surprised if it never works properly on anything else.
If they would only get Trusted Places working properly (Google that is) or even allow trusted Wifi (I know the security implications but I'm prepared to accept them!) then it would probably not be necessary.
I could keep it unlocked with my watch, but then I find that (despite pocket mode) my phone regularly does random things while in my pocket!
I had similar issues with my Mate 10 Pro, that I've just changed from, so it's not solely Xiaomi's fault, but is it really too much to ask to expect Android features that are offered to actually work out of the box?!

You're right. But if it had worked then it would have been a great party trick. I never had a phone which could wake up with an audio command.

The irony is that I've just switched from a Huawei Mate 10 Pro (Various reasons, but flaky bluetooth top of the list) and that did do it after the last update. That's because they have their own voice recognition baked in to the Kirin chipset though I think, so it's not using just Google's voice match - and even that took a lot of fiddling to get working. No idea how secure it was, but it was handy for finding the phone by asking it where it was! I refuse to talk to my phone in public anyway, so it's something I can live without I think
