I got a few app updates recently (including the 100GB one drive offer) but I also lost options for Google now that were there before. I can only say "ok Google" from the Google app now.
Image attached. Anyone else have this?

Yep I can also confirm an update removed the Ok Google commands. I was previously able to use the hot word from my lockscreen and now it only works within the Google search app. Pretty ****ing disappointing, I truly miss the Ok Google commands of the Nexus 6.
I still have them on my AT&T GS6. All up to date so far and everything working fine.
Just bought one of these to compliment my Nexus.
Definitely missing and definitely disappointing.
This is really weird...I guess I'll keep monitoring the app updates. Super strange.
Same here, few threads on reddit as well with others having the same issue.... hopefully it comes back soon coming from my N5 I really got into the habbit of using the voice to text search.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G920A
Me too. I'm really mad
Same here. Total BS. I was thinking it was something I had screwed up until I saw this thread. Very frustrating.
If I am correct it's a bug with the 64 bit version of Google play services and should be fixed soon.

I have the newest 64 bit version installed and I linked to it in a thread in general. It's from the N9 and is not what is on your phone now. Still not there.

I can all but guarantee it was a server side tweak and was done on purpose. Why?
My theory? Microsoft and Cyanogen got into bed together to replace core Google apps on upcoming phones. This phone comes with a OneDrive promotion. This is them fighting back.
Nutty and conspiracy theory ridden, but it crossed my mind ?

My first blame went to Samsung. Thought, "Oh here goes Sammy trying to make us use the crappy S Voice that NEVER wakes on command."
Has anyone else notices Google Voice Typing sucks now, too? It never starts listening when I start it up. I have to tap it a few times to get it to work.
Mine works ok still but I'm dying without ok Google being able to be used all over the phone.

Voice-to-text is fine again for me. Just had to clear cache for Play Services.
Works with Google Now Launcher
I too noticed the voice activation loss then went to GNL and it's working again.
So now not sure it ever worked or I only noticed when I used GNL prior. In any case gonna keep it on the phone as the feature is very useful to me.
I'm using Nova Launcher and it has a feature to use it unfortunately can't use it when phone is locked.

The photo is dark because i used a rc29 android g1 and we all know there camera app sucks!
anyways the graphics aren't half bad! with wifi it keeps up maybe 3-4 seconds lag time. Almost all keys are operational except im having a problem moving with keys "w,s,a,z". Other then that i can press enter and type or o to bring up friends list. if we can edit the app i used im sure we can get things running perfectly! Would work with many other games to.
NOTE: THIS POST IS NEW I DELETED MY OLD WAY OF PLAYING WOW SO DISREGARD MOST REPLIES BELOW.
Whoa... nerd.
Nah Im jk, this would be sweet.
Well this would be cool. I used to just VNC in. But isnt there a G1 app that let you install J2ME stuff? Wouldnt this still work on the G1?
Now give me a app to play FFXI and Im all over that. ^^ But still I may fiddle with this later tonight see if its workable.
I know Blizzard is very strict about third party type software, so be careful. I remember reading they were banning accounts running WoW through linux using wine emulation, picking it up as 3rd party software.

Yes, but that doesn't mean it won't happen again Just a warning
Meh Ive been in this battle since Ultima Online and still have it, FFXI "Windower" is a 3rd party tool, WoW same things. The key element that even internal staff has told me is that if your not trying to get noticed, you wont be harmed. Long as you dont try to make it so obvious your using something different.. or trying to script kiddie and be a idiot while doing it wrong... then yea.

That's fine, but like I said, I am just warning people they could get banned. Whether it is temporary or not, I really don't care. I am just warning people. No need to be so defensive.
Im not, but btw, I was looking at something called TurboVNC Not sure I understand it fully but it seems to be a better opengl streamer for vnc.
i updated my post.
So you got it working basically? Did all the steps work or what.
Ok.... so can you tell us how?
I think I figured it out...but I decided to give it a shot using Diablo 2 instead of WoW because of the lower requirements
can u tell us how?
Crap...I completely messed up the joke. When I said "but I decided to give it a shot" I meant to put shot in italics as it's just a picture snapped through the camera. I'm still waiting on instructions again from the OP on how he got it running since he edited his post.
someone should make a thottbot application for the android
I used phone2pc. If we can get a developer to edit this app or maybe an app like it, I am sure we can work out all the bugs. Most of my keys work I can talk to people I can press a few of the quick keys like "o" brings up your friends list... I can tap the screen to exit out of things and start spells... but i can't walk. Some one should be able to figure this out and maybe even make the response time quicker.
lol you answered my question as I was posting it. phone2pc

Hey are they ever going to release an official facebook app for our phones from the website like they do with the iphone and blackberrys?
Interestingly, rumors started flying around the internet yesterday/today about Facebook possibly releasing an official app. I don't make it a habit to post new threads based on rumors, but you can read some info about this here:
http://www.techcrunch.com/2009/07/2...k-and-google-work-together-on-an-android-app/
http://news.google.com/news/more?pz=1&cf=all&ncl=dZCKUtSuPS9aQTMWoeUeRsnoXR0LM
If the rumors are true, we'll find out shortly.
yea, not supposed to be as "full featured" But i guess rumors are saying as soon as this week
I cant wait.
Well, lets examine the evidence here and see what we can devise:
-Facebook just opened up their mobile shop for TMO users after years of screwing us over.
-TMO has been talking rumors of an official facebook app to be launched alongside the sherpa release when the MT3g comes out.
-The MT3g comes out next week.
So I'd say odds are pretty good.

Mid august or a few more days really does not make a big difference. G1 users have been waiting for a good facebook app since we got our phones 9 months ago. its just hope that when it gets here, it'll deliver on what most of us are looking for.
Check this: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Android

Have you tried Babbler? The pay version is better, but this one works just fine.
Everything you need but inbox (which, apparently the official one won't support anyways).

OP - http://androidcommunity.com/forums/229513-post48.html
well, now we know its coming for sure. all we gotta do is wait.
screens look slick although i had to zoom in.
widget looks cool too.
been using x.facebook.com and holding out for an official facebook app
I am really looking forward to trying this app. I dont even care if its a paid app. I was mega excited when I first tried Babbler and the same with Bloo. This app looks like it will work as expected with likes, replies and what not, I just hope they throw a few 'nice touches' into the app, and include things like photo uploads and tagging.
I must agree the widget does look kinda cool. I just hope it doesnt drain the battery like twidget.
Until then...
Has anyone else seen a problem with bringing up facebook comments through the email alerts if theyre sent to your phone? I click on the links in the email alerts in gmail and it takes me to the person's mobile profile for some reason. It used to take me to the desktop version page so i can see the comments, but its been forwarding to the mobile site
Well it looks like slowly android is coming around. If we get a good facebook app, and turn by turn nav, I might just keep this phone for a while, Yaaa.

I heard somewhere that Garmin was making an Android app, but don't quote me on that
edit: also there is already turn-by-turn nav for the G1. google "telenav". engadget says it is pretty snappy. been around since february.
Garmin making a sat nav would be brilliant! Cannot find telenav on the UK market can someone confirm its there?

This is amazing... I've been emailing Facebook, Pandora, and Huffington Post weekly to release official apps. Whenever I got a response, it was "sorry, but we're working on it... we have multiple projects going", etc. Now two of the three release in one day!
Well that will teach me to go a day without looking at the market!

Check them out online first to get a better understanding of how the music genome project works. For example how it breaks down music by its various elements and uses your choices to find other music with similar elements. Also look into how the rating system works into that and influences what music you're served...
I've been using Pandora for years... I love the concept and their execution...today is a happy day for me.

I tried to install the update and it says that it's not optimized on my device. It won't swype at all. It only works as a normal keyboard.

I read the Swype forum and apparently you have to wait till a screen pops up and click enable. I was clicking back once it finished installing, so the license didnt' download.
Well I tried it again and this time it works awesome! Faster then ever, no notice in accuracy but I'm a swype ninja and that voice icon looks great in my corner he is mine and I shall call him mike

Yeah I'm addicted to swype but hate their "sell it as hardware" business model and makes me really wish something better would come along because I will not buy a specific phone for swype because anything I pick won't get it, N1, G2 or the upcoming NS. Just sell the **** in market, even if it's $20, I'd rather pay the $20 to load it on whatever Android device I choose. It's all good for me being in the beta but I know it sucks for the rest of the world.
it only works fine for the first few days.
Now it sucks again ... just the same as September beta. Still can't delete words scraped from your address book, if you have 3K contacts with every name the world has ever known in every language, that sux.
For those wishing to get on the Swype Beta list the URL is https://beta.swype.com/android/create/.
I signed up when the registration period had ended and was able to get it some time in January. Hope this helps someone.

As mentioned before this had been there since release LAST year. I don't see how this not being included would have changed your perception of what crap is. I'd ask but you would probably only list 1 or 2 things with any other listing still being a problem in KK.
This game is very addicting. I keep borrowing my dad's Nexus 5 just to play it.

I had several problems with LP not present in KK:
- bluetooth not working properly with car
- when the call screen is minimized, sometimes LP won´t end the call after pressing END
- loss of signal quality (much worse radio, might be related to the bluetooth problem)
- audio notifications at night used to be disabled in KK. Now, with LP, I have do turn wi-fi & 4G off at night so the phone won´t disturb me with notifications
- after 2-3 calls, I have to reboot the phone, because the call after that will be completely silent
Again, none of these problems existed before.
I didn't know this so thank you OP. I think the new feature that concerns me most is the addition of Interruptions to the notifications/sound profile. I like my alarm going off even know I put the phone on silent. :/
