Assistant. Must've been a play services update that took it out. I'm on the beta.

And... It's broke again.

Yeah. Android Pay is working. I use it more than my card now. Anything that breaks that would be a deal breaker.

It appears so. Not a lot of news on it's release though. Odd

It's fixed in 8.1dp2 if that's any consolation.

I called customer service yesterday just to ***** about this still not being fixed. I got an email hours later wanting a bug report.

Apparently the media only reports on **** they feel like. It was brought up breifly then they went back to the screen flashing or some other horse****.

That's just using the phone's mic. It's a workaround, not a resolution. When working as it should triggering assistant will take over the Bluetooth device, even if the car radio is on fm. It will also read the response and then go back to the radio. Using the phone's mic neither of that happens.

I'm kinda confused really. I was told the fix would be in the October security patch. But the patch still hasn't been released and it's November. The beta has the patch but it's not fixed.

I don't see how a launcher could effect bluetooth. Disabling bluetooth MIDI took care of most of the problem for me. ANd I still had the problems after a factory reset.

Tech blogs are becoming like political blogs. The screen isn't near as bad, or bad, as everyone is making it ought to be. These reporters have pre-production units. Lets give it a few weeks and see what he actually have knowing that everyone that has a device with burn-in will have it replaced...

Nope. Isn't it also supposed to show traffic? Still waiting. That would be so much cooler than the usual notification. -edit: quick search suggests info only showed up in the widget under very specific circumstances. It has to be an attachment calendar entry, not info that's been correlated...

I think Best Buy does their own thing to get you to buy from them. For example with the Motorolas they gave different "moto mods" than others. With LG promotions you have to wait the 4 weeks to get a confirmation as well, presumably to keep you from returning the device and still getting the perk.

Handy but that seems like a one shot deal. I'm also getting "waiting" needed it when they made me do a factory reset.

I posted this yesterday. Got an email this morning about my support ticket. It was forwarded to the Assistant developers and they'll have a fix with the next security update "soon".
