If you have MM with xposed then you can use Assistant enabler: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.sabik.assistantenabler
If you have Nougat and root then you can edit the build.prop to add/replace these lines:
ro.product.model=Pixel XL
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
If you are unrooted, then you will have to wait for official release I think

I'm from Mauritius, and I got Google Assistant today.

How do you know if you got it lol ?

It asks you if it can help you, that how you know, and the constant asking if I said anything it did not hear.

Philippines here, I got it a few days ago
If you can't wait, adding
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
at the end of your build.prop and clearing your Google app's data should get you Assistant - assuming your region is eligible.
If not yet, you need to set your language setting to English (US) and then clear data

Anyone from the UK have Google Assistant already?
Sent from my Sony Xperia Z5 using XDA Labs

Uk after update
Uk here, got the recent update and it didn't have assistant as standard so I went searching. Found this website
https://www.googleplayservicesapk.com/download-google-assistant-apk-for-marshmallow-nougat-lollipop/
Basically,
1. Make sure Google Play Services is build 10.2.98 or higher
2. Phone language must be set to English (US)
3. Clear Google App data. (To do so, navigate to ‘Settings > All Apps > find and tap on Google App > Clear Cache and Data‘)
4. Finally, Reboot your device.
It worked for me, I changed the language back afterwards and it hasn't reverted.

[Q] This item isn't available in your country (apps error from play)

I looked in other threads but was curious to hear about my 6802 as to why when I try to install various apps, for example:
Xperia Privilege, Google Play store errors like this: "This item isn't available in your country"
I think my phone is actually from Singapore (ebay seller in the US).
I see there is an old app called Market Enabler, but I'm also curious how to see which market the phone is actually from.
I'm on stock 14.1.B.1.532 build.
I sure hope this isn't a dumb question nor is answered elsewhere.
Any help is appreciated

AFAIK, Chinese roms are heavily locked down for Google play. It may be worth looking at your buildprop entries and seeing which locale is set and change it to us.

I have the same annoying problem.
My phone is from HK, but my Play store is the US version, and I think that the Privilege app is for the asian markets and not the US that's why it's not available on the app store.
I think that the lock on app downloads on the play store has to do with what country your google wallet and play store account is associated with rather than the country/version of your Xperia device.
Right now is actually locked by your Ip address.
The only workaround is to connect your phone via VPN to a server in the specific country

Actually it is not build.prop related, it is from the market localisation. This app is exclusive in Asia and can't be downloaded from countries out of it.
You can try market helper, but not sure it'll work. If not there is allot of market apps hacked on the Web, but can't tell if any will actually work.

That's what I thought... I would change your country code in the rom. This will likely mean you format back to original install so will lose apps and data, but think then you should be OK as it will install UK playstore apps etc. Or to be safer, flash the UK 510 rom from scratch.

Mean Portuguese as been added to the country list. So Google playstore allow you to download it. Country list just got updated.
Yes, Google totally change the way of the country restriction. Many people complain about it, even using VPN services doesn't work. It is not attached to the sim card as well. And changing CDA change nothing too.
I have TW CDA but only can access to applications available in Vietnam, and it was the same when I had VN or HK CDA.

Ambiguous incompatibility!
Hi all,
My wife and I recently came to US and we got ourselves an HTC One M7 each. The phones were purchased from BestBuy and currently work on AT&T. Until today, I have found few US specific applications that are successfully installed on my wife's phone and working great, but not on mine. The error I see is "This app is incompatible with your device" - on both Play store on the web and on my phone.
The apps I have identified so far are:
1. Papa John's Pizza
2. Netflix
3. Hulu Plus
Also, both our phone numbers start with the same area code. And if it is of any help, we moved to USA from New Zealand (Pandora Internet Radio and Spotify work. I am not sure if they were available in NZ).
Steps I have taken so far:
1. Upgraded OS from Android 4.1.2 to Android 4.3 (still didn't receive the 4.4.2 update).
2. Ensured account information on Google Account (Google+) shows correct country.
3. Searched in vain for "Country" setting found anywhere else across Google's applications. Although I believe there is a setting lurking some place.
4. Checked "Let Google apps access your location" found under Settings -> Location
5. Ensured System language shows "English (United States)" - found under Settings -> Language & keyboard
6. Coaxed my wife into swapping phones.
Nothing has worked so far. I do not plan on rooting my phone or using a market helper. But if that is the only choice, I would do it. They are my last resort though. Although, I really hope it is some setting some place that I am missing.
Could anybody please help fix this?
Thanks for reading this and your solution.

How I wish I can be back to where I belong! I do miss NZ.
However, to answer your question, I do not think this is device specific. It seemed more relevant to the error than the device.
@moderators: Could you please move this to the appropriate section?
I didn't even have to switch sim cards to get a different play store. Like when i went to Dubai and Thailand, connecting to any wifi network enabled their playstore

Ambiguous incompatibility solved!!!
Wow... I did the following and that fixed the issue.
1) Sign into your Google Wallet account to manage your payment methods
2) Delete all of your payment methods from Google Wallet, and only add a card to one with a billing address located inside your desired country
3) Open the Play Store and navigate to any item available for download
4) Click to begin a download until you reach the "Accept and buy" screen (no need to complete the purchase)
5) Close the Play Store and clear data for the Google Play Store application (Settings > Apps > Google Play Store > Clear Data) or clear your browser cache
6) Re-open the Play Store. You should now see the Play Store that matches your default payment instrument's billing country.

Official Google Assistant?

I know there are all kinds of mods and stuff for rooted/unlocked phones to get Google Assistant, but the official rollout happened recently to a lot of devices. Was the Z one of them? I updated Play Services and the Google app to the latest release version, and tried being in the beta for both of them, and still don't have the assistant. Has anyone got the assistant working on the Z the official way? I'd rather keep stock for Safety Net reasons.
Check your device, i got up this morning with google assistant on my moto z (verizon)
Nope, I still have Now On Tap. Would you mind looking at what version of Play Services and the Google app you have?
Still waiting on assistant too but I'm UK based here but God I swear I'm addicted to updates

My version is 10.2.98
I did not see any update on the google play services these two days.
But got up with google assistant ready.
So i guess evil google did it by itself.
I did notice a fast battery drain by google services last night.

On a side note, you need to disable Moto Voice to allow "OK Google" to work.

Ok. Just checked again and Google Assistant got disabled. Changed the language to English (US), cleared data and tried again. Seemed to work. Had to do a hybrid language selection with English (US) system language and changed language in input settings to English (UK). It looks like that seems to work.
Just received Google Assistant, pretty useful.

I wonder if Moto plans to issue any kind of update to make Moto Voice work with Google Assistant. If you have Moto Voice enabled, you get the old Google Now but the new Google Assistant doesn't work if the screen is locked.

Ok, so I have a UK Axon7, and I just got GA, it might have been purely coincidence but I kept reading about the US getting it first, so I changed my language settings to US, rebooted my phone and within 10 seconds I had the welcome to Google assistant page up.

Wish it worked on Chinese version, sadly not
Don't give up, I am now more convinced of this, I changed my language back to UK English, and it went back to Google Now.
Make sure you change the Language in both settings under advanced, and more importantly the language to US under the google App settings and remove your default language.
Make sure you have the very latest google app apk installed, reboot the phone and then go through the google voice set up, so it worked from any screen, then all of a sudden. " Welcome to Google Assistant"

I haven't done either, all you might need to do is sideload the latest Google play services, but might not even need that, i think its a case of just changing the language. I fact i remember having to do the same when Google now came out.

Are you able to get Google Assistant to launch with a locked screen?

Hola
I have the Canadian variant LYA-L0C. I only very recently got the 9.0.0.146 update. Even before the .146 I am unable to get Google Assistant to launch from a locked screen. If I am on the phone, and it is unlocked and I call on Google it works without issue.
1. Yes, I have enabled Unlock with Voice Match in the Voice Match settings of Google Settings.
2. Yes, I have already tried uninstalling any updates to the Google app, but it still doesn't work.
3. Yes, I have already tried using the beta release of the Google app, but it still doesn't work.
4. Yes, I have already cleared the cache and storage for the Google app and reconfigured it, but it still doesn't work.
5. On our device variant there is no ability to select US English as the default phone language, this selection simply does not exist. This was at one time or another a key setting that you had to use to get Google Now / Assistant to work properly.
Am I the only one with the issue? Any advice?
I can bring up assistant when my screen is off, but it won't unlock the phone, I still have to unlock. But assistant work's.
To get assistant to work correctly I did the following
Disable assistant
Enable assistant
Update from playstore
Reboot
Retrain and set up assistant.

I have the same Canadian variant and I am not able to get Google Assistant working properly as well when the phone is locked. I will try what Darkat70 suggested and see if it works.
Additionally, I don't think the Google assistant is integrated with the system? I said "set my alarm for 6 AM" but just ended up with a google search. Same with weather, navigation, or other simple functions.
Even on the Pixel 3 now, the assistant won't unlock the phone. So it's very limited as to what it will do while locked.
it works for me and unlocks the phone if it recognize my voice.

Me too
In my case it doesn't work because I have work email added in Gmail and the admin didn't allow the security option to unlock with voice. Check in your Google account settings under Voice -> Voice match T its allowed there or not as per the attached screenshot
Just a heads up but it was announced by Google that the Voice Match Unlock was being removed as it was deemed insecure. It's quite normal for it not to be working. This started with moving from Android Nougat to OREA and now PIE with Assistant 8.39 and above. It's not only affecting this device, but this will also be the reality for all newer devices using Android.
https://9to5google.com/2018/10/26/google-killing-android-voice-unlock/
Mine works, but only after I went through about 50 cycles of disabling/enabling/training/uninstalling/installing every part of the Google infrastructure. Oh, and that includes wiping caches, manual installs of .apk's, etc, etc, etc. During all of that things would work a little different every time. It is obviously a bug of the OS combined with a bug in the Google Assistant crap.
I have had the same issue since m20p was launched. Solved it rather easily after some research. As USA and UK have strict rules on cell phone usage while driving, us and UK English cannot unlock phone. I switched over English Hong Kong as primary language and GA voice unlock has gotten back to how it is supposed to. I hope this helps
