Ok Google "From any screen" option missing - this is NOT about Samsung Galaxy!
I have Ulefone Paris with Android 5.1.
When trying to configure voice commands: I go to Settings -> Language and input -> Voice input -> Enhanced Google services -> "Ok Google" detection
The only option with on/off switch I have there is:
From the Google app
Say "Ok Google" to start a voice search from the Google app
There is not any other option, though I know that there should be many more options, such as "From any screen" option and possibility to say "Ok Google" three times so the Android recognizes your voice properly. I have nothing like that.
Yes, I have upgraded Google Application so it is up to date. I have actually updated every system application that asked for it. Also, it is a brand new phone, so no chance I have some kind of virus or malware installed. I have rebooted the phone multiple times.
(Additional info: When trying to find a workaround I tried to install Nova Launcher, there is a switch in the Nova Launcher settings to make the launcher recognize "Ok Google" from any screen. Problem is that when I activate it, there are no results in Google Application search. It recognizes my voice well, but anything I try to search, it comes with completely blank page as if there were no results for the search. Searching from standard web browser does work normally. Anyway, I imagine it is another bug completely.)
