Just to verify, your language is English ?
For example for me if I say "ouvrir Fit" the watch display "Ouvrir site" impossible to have "Fit", if I say "Start Fit" watch display "Start Fit" but it search "start Fit" on google search. Now I know I have to say "afficher mon activité" to open Fit
I tried to reinstall all, and reset the watch. It did not help
My primary language is Polish, but Android wear does not support my language, I have set the language to English in the watch and google now.
Interestingly, other commands such .: "Ok Google, take a note" work great.
Even the command "Ok Google, Start" works by showing a list of applications.
It does not work any command that launches the app such .: "Ok Google, Start Fit", "Ok Google, Start Runtastic" etc.

OK guys, I have searched and searched but cannot find an answer to this question.
I want to link the "OK Google" phrase that starts a Google Now search on the Nexus 5 to Tasker, or more specifically the AutoVoice plugin for Tasker.
I can attach the swipe up from the bottom to use AutoVoice rather than Google Now , but I cannot figure out how to make the phrase "OK Google" use AutoVoice.
I read that on the Moto X you can use Tasker to watch for the "Touchless Control" App to become active, and then kill it and start AutoVoice. But the Nexus 5 doesn't have the Touchless Control App, In fact I don't know what process or App is actually listening for the "OK Google" phrase on the Nexus 5.
Can anyone shed any light on how I might make this work.
Thanks in advance

Introduction
The voice recognition API does not allow apps to choose whether they want to use offline voice recognition or not. There's no setting for the user either. Instead, if there's an internet connection, it'll always use the online services.
This module allows you to force offline voice recognition/typing. This is useful if you're using a slow connection, if you're connected to a local network (without internet access,) etc.
What does this module do?
This module can force offline voice recognition for apps that use Google Voice. It'll work if the app uses one of the following:
Voice typing (used by keyboards, e.g. SwiftKey)
Voice recognition (for apps that use RecognizerIntent such as utter!)
It does so by setting a variable that indicates whether a network connection is available or not to false.
Voice commands inside the Google Search app aren't affected. Note that if offline voice recognition doesn't work for you in the first place, this module won't fix that.
Requirements:
Xposed Framework.
Broadcasts:
You can toggle some settings from e.g. Tasker using broadcasts. Just use these action names:
com.germainz.googleofflinevoice.enable - Enables the module.
com.germainz.googleofflinevoice.disable - Disables the module.
com.germainz.googleofflinevoice.enable_voice_ime - Enables the module for voice typing.
com.germainz.googleofflinevoice.disable_voice_ime - Disables the module for voice typing.
Example from the shell:
Code:
am broadcast -a "com.germainz.googleofflinevoice.disable"
Source code:
https://github.com/GermainZ/GoogleOfflineVoice
Download:
http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.germainz.googleofflinevoice
Changelog:
Code:
[B]1.2.1:[/B] The widget now uses images to indicate the module's state. This should fix text getting cut off on some devices.
[B]1.2:[/B] Fix for the latest Google Search. Revamped blacklist. Added a simple widget to toggle module status (useful to quickly enable/disable GoogleOfflineVoice from e.g. your home screen).
[B]1.1:[/B]
The voice typing setting wasn't working correctly (because of a typo - offline voice typing was never forced.) Also, there was another typo in strings.xml, as a reboot is actually *not* required for the settings to apply.
[B]1.0:[/B] Initial release.

I think the title and description are extremely clear.
Anyway, check this.
EDIT: actually, I don't understand what you want. Regardless, it doesn't seem related to what this mod does so no.
I don't know if I understand this clearly - this will able me to use Google Now voice recognition and Swiftkey voice typing when there's no data connection? But I'll still be able to use it when data is on?

No. On Jelly Bean and higher, you can already use offline voice recognition/typing. That only happens when you're not connected at all, though. You can't force it if you're using a slow connection or if you're connected to a WiFi that's local (no internet access.) This module allows you to do that. I personally use it for SwiftKey and utter! because I find online recognition is too slow - at least with my internet connection.
Good app, was looking for something like this since long.
sent from public phone using coins.
Tried it out anyway. Off-line recognition CAN work on Armv6--had it happen once, just once. Do not know how I got there but the armv7 code stands in the way. So maybe this module could bypass it.
I actually have two Google choices for recognition, one for Google Search (offline) and one for older Voice Search (online). Vlingo also exposes its engine as another working choice. I wish Nuance (they own it now) would expose there Dragon engine. Unfortunately, most apps no longer respect this choice. In fact, only Jeannie works now with the online recognition choice. The voice assistant does not work over KitKat Google Search and launcher.
So I enabled this module. Really did not change much. Jeannie still worked, seemed quicker but very subjective--I assume was still going online. Google Search did not FC but did not accept voice. Next browser's voice input pretended to work, as before. No results. Voice typing also pretended, no results. Dragon's (using Swype) works very well (online).
BTW, the linked kludge is for dictation, using an ICS modded Google Search to somehow retrieve a language file. Did not work for me but I have the file, manually symlinked to its presumably proper place. The poster does not use Google Search, only dictation.

This module can force offline voice recognition, by changing the following, and only for apps that use Google Voice:
Voice typing (used by keyboards, e.g. SwiftKey)
Voice recognition (for apps that use RecognizerIntent such as utter!)
You're unlikely to notice a big difference unless you're using a slow connection or are connected to a WiFi network without an internet connection.
Voice commands through Google Search aren't affected, so your "did not accept voice" isn't related to this module. As I've said, this only affects Google Voice - Dragon and other engines will still behave as before.
If offline voice recognition doesn't work for you in the first place, this module won't fix that.
Can someone coment if this would have significant savings on bandwidth, for people who are trying to keep it under a couple hundred meg cap? For a user who uses heavy dictation.
Update:
Code:
[B]1.1:[/B] The voice typing setting wasn't working correctly (because of a typo - offline voice typing was never forced.)
Also, there was another typo in strings.xml, as a reboot is actually *not* required for the settings to apply.
Sorry

It depends. Offline voice recognition isn't great for dictation unless you have a perfect accent and there's no background noise at all. You'll get unusable results otherwise.
Assuming it works perfectly, though, you'll save quite a lot, yes. Of course, it depends on how much you use it. But as I've said, offline dictation probably won't give you acceptable results, so you'll have to Try It And See™ and decide for yourself (also note that it wasn't working properly till this update.)

Maybe, if it uses Google voice recognition. Try It And See™.
PS. I'm not sure what you mean be "I can't use voice recognition" - if it's failing even with an Internet connection them your problem is elsewhere.
Well @GermainZ, because I was using Google Keyboard too and nothing happens. To be sure, voice recognition works fine with an internet connection.

Voice typing != voice recognition. Google Keyboard should use voice typing, so make sure that setting is enabled. Read the OP for more info.

Is there anyone who is working on apps for the LG G watch? I'm thinking about buying this smartwatch but at this point it can't do much things. It's only good for reading notifications and using Google now. I would like to see apps like on the Sony SW2 to read my e-mails or use a calculator maybe to send messages (voice typing not supports Hungarian language).

As far as I understand it, most apps tie into a built in API and are able to communicate with the Wear device without the need for any app to be installed on the Watch, they simply know a Wear device is connected and send the relevant info. We may not need to install any apps directly on the G watch.

And then why is the s400? I think nobody will play games on his watch.
They said that the Watch will be open to third-party apps dev. So yes, there will be apps, that's also why there's 4 gigs.
Top tip: When searching the Play store for apps, use the search string "android wear" (WITH quotes). Don't rely on the minimal selection that the Wear app itself returns.

I'm not a fan of google feeling the need to listen to everything I say. I did search for this, but all I'm coming up with is people wanting to disable the "Ok google" text on the screen. I'd like to disable to feature all together, but it doesn't seem there is an option anywhere. Am I missing something or do you need a custom rom to get rid of this crap? Thanks guys!

I do not know if there is anyone who would have done this... the "OK Google" is the core part of android wear...... If you do not like that feature, you may be better off with a different wearable.
I am not trying to be rude, just can not understand why you need to remove almost all functionality of your watch.

Actually he made an interesting question, indeed. The voice recognition of the "OK GOOGLE" hotword isn't fully used by everyone (as with on phone) so disabling that should spare some battery juice.

I can understand where the feauture may be useful, but I myself don't feel it's necessary to have google listening to me at all times. I wouldn't quite say that is "almost all the functionality" of the watch. Why can't I activate the menu an then begin speaking rather than it just listening at all times?

That's a good point too. I'm sure that "feature" is draining my battery.
I think the OP has a valid point. Personally I don't care if Google hears me. However, I would be okay if I could just tap the screen to give a voice command instead of saying okay Google. Everyone looks at me funny when I say that part. Probably save a little time too.
Also, I wish I could just tap on the watch to have it input voice to text on my phone when I'm in a text field. I like to use Swype, but hate there voice to text option when I want to use it.
I can see how having the option to turn off always listening would be good for some people, i thought he wanted to remove ALL of the google now functions.
Maybe someone will come up with a mod for it soon.
I'm fed up of this "OK GOOGLE" Logo everytime, Hope they will give us an option to remove the word in next update.!

just use it a couple of times, then the text will no longer be shown...so, just say "ok google" to activate the search (i think about 5 times necessary, correct me, if i am wrong), then you will no longer see the text when waking up your watch...
I'm interested in partially deactivating the "ok google" feature too, as I my main language is french and ok google works only about 20% of the time for me

My main language is also French and the detection is working almost flawlessly
no solution yet?!
worst thing with the Hotword detection is, that it's too often wrong with the detection and starts recording .. it's like you have a bug on your wrist
for me, it records about 10 times a day without me saying "ok google"...
but check it yourself: history.google(.com)/history/audio (remove the () , i cant post links because of new member)
worst function ever. so anybody knows how to delete this ****ed up function?!
These devices were made with the hotword detection specifically in mind, I believe that the battery use should be negligible. I personally haven't noticed any battery problems coming from the Android Wear app or the Google app (on watch, through the battery statistics.) most of my battery problems were from watchfaces still using the 4.4w APIs and badly coded applications.
That said, because they were made specifically with hotword detection and Google Now in mind, it cannot be disabled without someone possibly making a custom ROM to turn it off, however no one has made a true custom ROM for wear yet (I'm not even sure they can honestly.)
What I ended up doing is going into the Google account options on the phone. Under search - voice there is an option for "OK Google detection" doing this seemed to completely disable it. I don't understand how people are comfortable having an open mic with them at all times. Just because you "have nothing to hide" doesn't mean something should always be listening.

It may always be listening, but it isn't always recording. The Ok, Google hotword detection only records the first second before and after you say Ok, Google. It's not always sending things over to Google. Just because you have things to hide, doesn't mean you should be paranoid about it
The google services have indeed plagued many phones for their background services, alarms, and receivers.
What I cannot understand is how the 'Ok Google' still works even when I have switched my watch to Airplane Mode.
Not everyone buys an Android Wear to enjoy the google services. Some, including me, like only the Wear Faces. One watch, many wear faces, saves the money to 'collect' many different watches just for the sake of keeping up a lifestyle.
I spend a lot of time in the car, so the OK Google voice control feature is typically helpful. However, for some reason, my 5x just does Google searches instead of executing voice commands.
For example, I'll say "OK Google", wait for the noise, and say "Send a text". Then, instead of sending a text, it will instead do a Google search for the phrase 'Send a text'. Any idea what's up with this, or how to fix it?

Flash dynamic gapps Mini_Dynamic_GApps-7.1.x-20170121.ZIP
It is included and works well on custom nougat ROM.
Otherwise, check your settings for OK Google, it needs cards on, or update app ( Google search might help you )
