you will need to set your language to US English for that to work.

ah it seems to say 'ok google' once i click into the bar and now it works when i say the magic words just not when the screen is off is that right? i assume so

it doesn't say 'ok google' in the home screen search bar is this all ok?

thanks for the help

Unfortunately, from what I've read, it will not work when the screen is off... Only when it's on.

You shouldn't need to do anything other than have the screen in though, unless I've misread stuff :thinking:

You have to be in your home screen and the screen must be on and unlocked to work.

Also your voice language must be set to English (US) because that is the only option they have enabled "OK Google" for.

To do this, swipe left to your Google Now page and scroll to the bottom of all your cards, click the three dot setting button on Google Now page, not the ones on the black navigation bars. Click Voice and change the language to English (US)
