    Google Assistant With Screen Off and Charging

    Google Assistant With Screen Off and Charging

    Google assistant works very well on any screen for me. I just can't get it to respond when the screen is off and the phone is charging.

    Google Assistant With Screen Off and Charging

    My Verizon S7 updated to the latest Verizon build a couple of days ago. I have Google Assistant set to allow "OK Google" detection from any screen. I was under the impression/recollection that "Ok Google" detection worked even if the screen was off (NOT locked) as long as the phone was being...

    Updated yesterday via Kies, and so far this is a really good release from Verizon. Everything is running smooth as silk. It includes updates in addition to the 2 items listed by Verizon. Specifically, it includes the mute toggle as well as the alarm notifications when in mute/silent mode...

    New Verizon 5.0 lollipop Build Dropped today??

    As far as I can tell, OC4 handles alarms and mute/priority mode just like OA8 did--i.e. if you put the phone on mute, you will not hear any alarms. What's odd is that media sounds (like music player, etc.) do have audible sounds even when the phone is in mute mode.
