I am wondering if the lag when turning the phone on is caused by that other new feature, forgot the name of it, where with the phone laying on a flat surface you can check your notifications by swiping the hand over the phone (to activate the proximity sensor). The screen will light up and shows your your missed calls, and other notifications. Just a wild guess on my part, I don't have my Note 2 yet. People complained about home button lag on the S3 and the culprit was the home button waiting to see if you will double tap it to bring up SVoice. The lag was cured by turning the double click S Voice feature off.
That feature has been hit or miss for me so far (made me look stupid while trying to show isheep friends) lol and as far as the wake up lag I my note 2 has been stupid fast and no bugs or lag of any kind... still waiting for sprint to push the firmware update for multiscreen.
I can't get the phone to wake using S-Voice or Google Now. I've used the default "Hi, Galaxy" and "Google". I tried recording my own voice saying Hi, Galaxy, that didn't work either.
What am I doing wrong?
I do have it set On. Wake up Command is checked. You can get this to work? I have wet hands often during the day, so it would be worth the battery drain to be able to wake the phone. Google Now does have a setting in it's Settings/ Voice/ Hotword detection - Say Google to launch voice search is checked.I don't think that Google Now has a wake up command; but S-Voice will let you, but you need to turn the option on in settings. It's off by default, since it's a bit of a battery drainer.

Ah... Looks like you have to turn the screen, then say the wake up command.
That's dumb.
Still can't get Google Now to open with a wake up Command.

Have you tried going into Google Now and then saying Google? It's not meant to open Google Now, it's just to start a voice search from within Google Now. Otherwise it would drain a ton of battery.

I've tried it with the screen on, off, inside the app, can't get it to wake up. I even tried cursing at it, didn't work. And yes, it's useless if I have to touch the phone, open the app, then say Hi, Galaxy.Ah... Looks like you have to turn the screen, then say the wake up command.

Holy Smoly, forget the dang locking/unlocking - what a beautiful lock screen!!!! That silver is stunning.You can tell it's on when you look at the lock screen and there's a microphone at the bottom. Then it works (for me); it unlocks the phone and launches S-Voice. The app doesn't need to stay open. Still not as useful, since you have to turn the screen on first.
You might want to try to turning on motion control, just in case that's somehow blocking it.
