Hotword detection

[moonoverparma00]

How do I get the hotword detection to work. I have it checked in the Google now settings but will not work. I look like a moron yelling "Google" at my phone!

Try swiping up from the home button. I don't think it will work if you just tap on the search bar.

Edit: never mind, both should work. Try rebooting it.

It only seems to work if you have system language set to English (US)

I rebooted and its set to English USA and still won't work.

It only works in Google Now, not from your homescreen. I found this out on my Nexus 7, from me posting the same question on the forums.
