[XPOSED] Assistant Enabler-Enable Assistant for any locale(with OK Google everywhere)

Sabissimo · Oct 13, 2016

This module is based on feature, introduced in great AndroidN-ify module and enables Google Assistant on Marshmallow ROMs.

I decided to create this module, because some features of AndroidN-ify on my device were causing SystemUI to crash, due to my rom not being close to AOSP. If your ROM supports all features of AndroidN-ify - I highly suggest to use it! It's awesome!

But in case you have the same problems as I do, but still want to use Google Assistant - you can meanwhile use this module.

Supports Google App 6.6.14.21 and later

All credits go to MrWasdennnoch, Maxr1998, Exalm and other contributors to his great module!

Known bugs:

~~OK Google hotword not working (goes to voice training everytime)~~ Working with 6.10 update!
~~"OK Google" detection settings crash~~ Working with 6.10 update!

After 6.10 update "OK Google" detection is working as intended without any interference, so just go ahead in google settings and configure voice there, it works now!
For versions below 6.10 use following guide
To use "OK Google" hotword you need to do following:
1. Update Google App to the latest version (at least 6.8 beta)
2. Disable assistant in module
3. Configure "OK Google" detection and voice pattern
4. Enable assistant in module
5. Say "OK Google"
6. ....
7. Profit!

Enable "OK Google" with screen off (even when not charging)
After enabling it in module settings, plug/unplug your charger for settings to kick in

Bonus feature: Enable Google Now (feed) in unsupported countries
In order to enable Google Now in unsupported country, these steps are required:
1) Enable Assistant Enabler module in Xposed Installer
2) In Assistant Enabler settings, enable "Enable Google Now"
3) Reboot (after rebooting your phone carrier will be identified as US Verizon)
4) Either remove your sim, or put your phone in airplane mode
5) Enable Wifi
6) If google account is added to the phone already - remove it
7) Launch google app and login to your google account
8) Opt-in to Google Now
9) PROFIT!

P.S. After these steps you can disable "Enable Google Now" setting in Assistant Enabler module, if you don't want your carrier to be identified as VZW. Google Now will continue working.

New feature!
Broadcast receiver to allow other apps (for example: Tasker) to toggle module settings
Reference Tasker profile using feature to automatically enable/disable "OK Google Everywhere" when entering/leaving home WiFi: Tasker.zip

NOTE: When enabling/disabling "Ok Google Everywhere" a broadcast intent with action ACTION.POWER.DISCONNECTED must be sent to avoid having to manually plug/unplug the device.

Since there is no interface (at the time of this post), I assume it integrates itself seamlessly?

Yes, it does integrate seamlessly. Long-press home button on your navigation bar to access Assistant.
"OK Google" hotword is not yet working correctly though. If you had "OK Google" detection configured before installing this module - hotword will bring up voice model retraining interface each time use say it, and pressint "Do it later" will give you access to assistant.

Installed the module. But how to activate it? Holding home bottom pops Now on tap as usual.

It's activated if module is activated.
In some cases you might have to clear Google App data for it to work. And make sure you are using latest Google App (here's apkmirror link to the working version)

Hi thanks for the module. I tried installing on s7e with note 7 port rom m 6.0.1 Wanam xposed 86.1
It seems to work but when I longpress to go to the assistance it says that I might be offline.
Google app 6.6.14.21.arm64 installed. Cleared cache and data already.

Edit : think I found the problem. It had something to do with my synapse doze and battery settings I think.

Now works perfect.

Nothing mentioned about it working on lollipop ROMs so I dunno if I should try it. Can I?
And hotword really not going to work anymore? I got an MXPE.

It does activate via hotword, but always brings up voice training activity, even when you've already did train it. At least for me. Working on a workaround for that.

That activity is FC-ing in general for now, though it's wierd that this activity is launching when you longpress home button. Have you tried to clear data for google app? And was google now on tap working prior to installing my module?

Works on CM 13 (sultanxda), OnePlus 3 with Google App 6.6.14.21.
Except pressing settings in app.

Really nice work, hoping for improvements to unleash the full power of the siri-ki**er

No keyboard?

Hello,

Thank you for this. At my end, it works like a charm. I just don't have a keyboard to type to the assistant. Is this normal or something that still needs to be fixed?
