Speech services downloading English update stuck

[Davidoo]

I have a 6 Pro from Verizon. Every time I restart I get the following notification. "Speech services by Google downloading English (US) update, waiting for network connection."

Of course I'm on the Verizon network and the download never starts. My first thought was that something was set to only download over wifi, so I went to Google settings and changed the Mobile data and Messaging setting to wifi and cellular under Data Management. No change. If I switch to wifi, the notification goes away, like it finished the download, but on restart the message comes back.

Anyone else getting this notification it have any ideas how to make it finish the download?

After doing the software update from Google Play, I went to the Manage Language settings, long press English, uninstall, long press English, update. All seems good now on both my LG V30 and V60.

Re:

Welcome to Android Central! I believe findingitnecessary meant that the option is in the system settings. Go to Settings>Apps>Default Apps>Digital Assistant Apps, then tap the gear icon next to Voice Input. You can find the Auto Update Languages option there.

This lovely issue just started on my Samsung Galaxy Tab s3. It knocked out 25% of a fully charged battery overnight before I noticed the downloading icon movement in the notification bar this morning. Well, being a member of this great forum I am familiar with the problem.

I followed the above Settings>Apps>Default Apps>Digital Assistant Apps location supplied by @B. Diddy, then selected Manage downloaded languages. I used the long press English, uninstall that @ManiacJoe used, (the post above this one), which rolled backed the updates to the default. I don't use voice on this tablet, so I then went to Auto-Updated & chose Do not auto-updated languages. Next shut down my device, waited 5 minutes, then turned on device.

Waited 30 minutes to make sure that the download didn't return, but all seems good.

Thanks to all, saved me from much stress!

That could be, you were up to date. You stay on top of these things.

I didn't have this error show up on my Note 20U or Tab s6 tablet.
It didn't hit my Husbands Samsung s10+ or Tab s7 tablet.

I only use my Tab s3 tablet for games & on camping trips. I rarely turn on the WiFi, but after flipping on the WiFi last night, the problem started.

Interesting, error just showed up on my Tab s6 tablet. Guess I spoke too soon in post #106.

All fixed now...

This thread. I dreamt last night that I received the update, and I was looking forward to see what happened. That’s all I remember.

 

[B. Diddy]

There was just another update to Speech Services through the Play Store, so hopefully that has fixed the bug.

...either I missed the update or its not available yet for any of my devices.

(Whisper: Who’s going to tell B. Diddy that there isn’t no update, he was just dreaming.)

Actually there was an update. See screenshot.

Re:

Thank you to poster in another thread for posting your fix, which was merged here. That tip fixed mine too. Restarted after making the change and the message went away. I use this particular tablet (I have two others neither with this issue) only twice a month to hear and see what others see and hear while I help co-host Zoom meetings. This stuck download has been here for weeks...till I got off lazy butt, dusted off and pulled the tablet out of the charging station and searched while not actively needing to help host a meeting and found your fix. Annoyance gone. Thx x2

I went into the actual Google Play Store settings by tapping the circle in the upper right with my Google profile photo in it. In that Settings menu there are Network Preferences. They were all set to download over wifi only. I switched them all to over any network, restarted, then I saw the notice pop up briefly then go away.
