OK Google Not Responding

[MaxWin100]

After using the "OK Google" functionality for several days, my phone has stopped responding to the command. I have to click the microphone icon in the Google Now search bar to enable it. I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy Nexus. I've restarted the phone and searched for an answer but haven't found one. It just stopped working one day.

Is your phone on silent? When my phone is on silent the ok google thing doesn't work.

No, it's not on Silent. All alert and volume sounds are on and up. It works if I manually click on the microphone icon on the Google search bar and speak "OK Google". I thought it was supposed to work right from the home screen.

Never mind you must be. Uhm... Maybe it somehow got switched off in the settings?

The Hotwords function is turned on. I'm not using any 3rd party launcher.

I'm having the same problem but it started after I received the update to 4.4 (nexus 7). I thought the update was responsible but perhaps not if yours also just stopped working.

It's to do with the language settings on your phone. They need to be in US English. I think it's in the Google Voice Search settings.

The Galaxy Nexus is not getting 4.4. 4.3 is the last update.

My language settings are, and always have been, US English.

There have been a lot of problems with it since KitKat, even on some Nexus 5 devices.

I know you don't have KitKat but does the problem clear up if you turn the phone off and turn it back on? Maybe clearing your Google Search cache would help.

I tried turning the phone off and on a few times. Doesn't matter. I haven't cleared all Google Saerch Cache since I've read that that can cause other problems, and it isn't a perfect fix.

Settings for "OK Google Detection " From Any Screen must be turned on.
I had mine turned on but it somehow got turned off so I had to reset it.

Your reply more than 2 years later is irrelevant. Problem fixed with a new phone.
