[MIC] google now and s voice not working properly - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi so this problem has been persist for a while so basically google now and s-voice is not listening properly
my mic is fine during calls so it's probably a setting i cannot find
in google now the mic doesn't listen at all in app or outside the app (with "ok google" enabled outside the app)
while s-voice works when i open the app and i turned on voice on wake up and was able to set up the command but when i'm outside the app my phone still won't listen
so is there something i missed?
thanks for your time

I'm having the same issue. Phone calls work fine but skype and hangouts or Google now don't work. Neither does the keyboards voice recognition. I can't even setup s voice

Android Voice Actions not hearing voice

I seem to be having a problem with voice actions.
When I use an app, let's say Google Voice Search, the mic comes up to accept speech but almost immediately it says "no speech heard".
I have to start it again and start speaking quickly so it won't time out.
Vlingo works fine and gives me plenty of time.
What could be affecting this?
Thanks

Best voice command for bluetooth headsets?

I've been on a hunt for a voice command app that works well with bluetooth headsets.
I wish that Google's Voice Actions would work with a bluetooth headset, but instead I get the Voice Dialer app every time I want to activate voice command.
So far what I've found to be the closest to what I'd want is Sonalight, but it attaches an annoying link at the end of your SMS messages unless you pay them. Fail.
Does anyone know of a good voice command app that can be activated by your bluetooth headset that will respond and do things like send messages, map locations, and call people? Similar if not identical to Google's own built-in one but that would actually work without me having to activate it from my phone?
Try Jeannie in the market. Works excellent with my Bluetooth.

Voice control

voice control - the function in settings that is suppose to control the watch by voice by saying "answer" or "reject" does not work on my gear s. It worked when I first got the watch but for a long time now it has not worked.
I've sent this to Samsung to fix this function but no joy.
Does this function work on other members watch?
edited to add
using voice s on the watch works perfectly (well as perfectly as voice s works) so voice recognition is not the issue

Troubleshooting Google apps not able to listen/hear

LG G5, rooted
My phone, dialer, and mic work well with non-Google apps. However, my Google apps don't seem to recognize any spoken input:
"Ok Google" just sits at the dots, not registering any input
I can't train Google Assistant
Hangouts doesn't register any spoken input nor has the speakers output any sound
What's odd is that when I hang up on a Hangouts Dial call, I briefly hear sound. So, from what I can gather, the phone is generally working but somehow there's something specific to how Google wants to do its job that's not working.
Uninstalling data/updates to Google/Google Now didn't do anything. Permissions seem to be fine.
Any ideas?

Bizarre sound/mic issue on RS988

My stock camera doesn't record sound, and when making Hangouts Dialer calls I don't hear anything nor does any mic work (plugged-in headset or chin mic). Google Now doesn't hear me, and I can't train the Google Assistant (it never hears "okay Google").
Meanwhile, regular calls (and Google Voice) work fine. I'm now using Open Camera to shoot video, and that app has full functionality. I have a 3rd party voice recorder app that works fine as well.
I did come up with a workaround, in that when I hooked up a USB OTG hub to the phone then plugged in a USB headset through the hub, Hangouts Dialer had full sound/mic capability; I didn't test anything else yet.
So I'm thinking this is some kind of oddball firmware issue. I saw that there was some tinkering that could be done with /system/etc/mixer_paths_tasha.xml (per thread at https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g5/how-to/fix-mic-speaker-mode-call-t3565646 ), but I don't really know what I'm looking at in there and so while I'm willing to tinker I don't know what to do.
Any ideas?
