Two bugs/issues with my new 5x

[jonclegg]

Is anyone else having the camera crash not come up when double taping the power button? Half the time it buzzes, then shows the lock screen. Sometimes when I do it again I get the camera, two times I got the camera app with a green box and then the phone froze hard, requiring a reboot.

Also saying "ok good, what's on my calender" just does a google search, I can't ask it anything about my calender and get the correct result, any ideas?

Try this link below, a list of Google Now voice commands. Also, and I don't know if it's still the case now but it used to be that selecting language English US gave more functionality than English UK for instance. I have mine set to US and have no problem getting a calendar card and voice.

Camera has never failed for double click of power button.

Test in safe mode to see if you have another app that might be problematic to the camera app.

You could also try going into settings>>>apps, find the camera app and clear app data in case there is stray data causing weirdness (not very techy in my jargon, but I think you know what I mean!).

+1!

I was just tinkering with my phone and OK Google failed. Went into the Google app settings and saw I had two languages checked: English US and English UK. Uncheck the UK option and OK Google working again. Guess it was trying to listen for that lovely UK accent that I don't have!

Btw, I did a system restore trying to fix the google now calender issue, no luck, I suspect the problem is a 15 year all day event i have that I use to keep a hangout always open.

Anyway, since the restore the camera hasn't crashed, so maybe that fixed it.
