long press home button for google assistant does not work

[jimd1050]

Very strange, it works for some and not others .

Yeah, I just read through all this and checked mine and mine works fine... and it was already set that way! Not sure if it was a carry-over setting fro my Note 9 or not but, that's possible! I did use SmartSwitch to restore everything from the Note 9 once the new one was setup and running!

I went from Note 10+ back up samsung cloud and works for me also . Not sure what's the issue, wish mine didn't work so I could troubleshoot on my device.

Can confirm. I have the Verizon ultra and it doesn't work at all. Fully stock.

Oh boy looks a carrier thing taken out

I just switched my N20U unlocked on VZW back to navigation buttons, and a long press of home brought up Google Assistant without a problem.

So it looks like this is not a carrier issue (for once VZW didn't take something away)

Yesterday I bit the bullet and switched to the gestures. Initially annoying but by the evening I'd figured it out pretty well and don't want to go back.

Just adding I'm having this exact same issue with my new Note 20 ultra vzw. Long press home does not do anything at all, regardless of which app I choose as the assistant.

I called T-mobile yesterday about my S9 not responding to OK Google (the Google Assistant). The technician said that since last week many have called about this and she experienced herself with her Note. It is apparently due to the last OS upgrade. She told me that Samsung was aware of this and plans to correct the bug with another OS upgrade. In the meantime, she said I can roll-back my OS to older version; it takes about 45 minutes to complete. I didn't do it. I am going to wait.

Hoping to find out what is causing this. But I want to force it to NOT respond to a long press.

Same thing with mine. VZW phone went from Note 8 to 20 ultra using smartswitch. All stock phone. Have been all over the Interwebs and this form is the best thing out there right now. No answer I can find anywhere.
