'Okay Google' Always On ??

[eosman2k1]

I was told you could use 'Ok Google' with the note 4 with the phone locked and not plugged in. Is this the same for the Note 5?

Yes it is the same for the N5. The screen must be on though. The screen cannot be off.

I use Google now with my LG headset. I can just push button on headset and ask google anything with screen still off on phone.

I need to try Google Now. To be honest I've not been a fan of using voice activated searches etc. Most devices can't understand my English accent. Albeit they're getting better...

Is there a setting that you have to turn on to get it to work?

Yes, enable it in Google Settings > Voice

The recent update to google broke this feature on all phones that have updated to the new Google app. We are waiting on Google to fix this issue. If you have the new colorful google app showing then it is broken. Kind of sucks because I use tasker and autovoice more now than ever. Hope google fixes this soon.
