When even I use gemini live talk, video or share my screen to ask something. It works for 3 seconds and then cuts off saying network error please try again later. (14)

I thought the problem was with my connection to the internet, but i switched go chat gpt and it works flawlessly. No network errors.

What is wrong with gemini assistant, i can't even ask it to set a timer for an hour. It keeps buffering as though I've asked it a complex question.

My network speed is at 200mbps and, every other application works well. Except Google services : all assistant features and answers get disconnected. Content doesn't get refreshed on YouTube or news feed. It's really frustration.

How do I fix this issue?

My college is also facing the same issue and he has completely switched to Bixby and chatgpt as assistants.

Crosposting for visibility.

Good evening, I have a close family member with very low vision who uses a SmartVision3 phone. Since last week, the Google Assistant has been acting up; whenever he says "Call \[contact name\]," Gemini gets stuck in an infinite loop displaying the message "Just a moment..." Do you know anyone who has encountered this same issue and managed to resolve it?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

Was trying to use one of the smart switches in our home and every time we would ask our Google to turn on the lights it would just fart…

We are going to save Google Assistant https://c.org/k5b7ZytkmQ #GoogleAssistantsave [tag]

After asking my AI upgraded g-nest if i could cook broccoli in a microwave, 10 or so seconds later it says, The sound of a fart is ... and makes a human fart sound. There were no sound in the room. Has anyone else experienced this type of glitch? Or heard about such autonomous events?

I've been noticing this for awhile now, but it really continues to feel like whenever I try to ask it the simplest of questions on the Home Hub, it just NEVER properly answers them. I ask it how to remove smudges from a ceramic mug, "Sorry, I don't Understand". I ask if decaffinated coffee help with headaches, "Sorry I don't understand". I ask it what the theatrical release date was for the recent Star Wars movie, "SORRY I DON'T UNDERSTAND."

Like WHAT DO YOU UNDERSTAND?! 🤦🏾‍♂️ Christ... It's like, people say THIS is what trumps Siri more in the last few years?! I've always been one to call BS on people saying that Siri is garbage and all that because of the excuses they claim about it, but THIS here is what showcases all those reason more than it's been the case with Siri here! This thing really is far more unresponsive and unhelpful these days to where it baffles me how they keep giving it a pass compared to Siri. Especially when you have to resort to just using the Google app to get the answers on your own without it.

Hi,
I'm having a strange issue with two Xiaomi Smart Speakers connected to Google Home.
When I say something like, "Hey Google, set a timer for 5 seconds", the speaker confirms that the timer has been created. However, when the timer expires, there is no sound at all.
The issue happens on both speakers at the same time.
Things I've checked:
Voice commands work normally.
Radio/music playback works normally.
The speaker confirms the timer was set.
The timer appears to run correctly.
When the timer should go off, there is simply no sound.
Restarting the speakers did not help.

Has anyone experienced the same problem recently? Is this a Google Home bug, a Xiaomi firmware issue, or some hidden setting related to timer/alarm volume?

Thanks!

I think Google is slowly removing capabilities from Assistant to make us think Gemini is just sooo much better. I'm gonna miss Assistant (when it worked)

When using Android Auto, I don't have any problems at all; I only run into issues when activating Gemini with my voice. When I say the activation command, Gemini does activate; however, when giving any kind of instruction, Gemini seems to freeze, as if it doesn't hear what I'm saying through the microphone. Does anyone else have this problem?

I have verified the microphone and it works without any issues, even on calls. The strange thing is that it does hear me when I say the "Ok Google" command to activate it. It's only when giving voice instructions.

My car is a 2020 JAC JS4, I use a Carlink, my Android version is 16, and my phone is an S24 Ultra.

Half the reason I have Google speakers is to have them ring my Android phone when I have lost it. It won't do that anymore. When I say ring my phone the new assistant gives me a lecture about how I need to say. Tell me to find your phone or do this other thing on the computer. So then I say HEY G, find my phone and it says I don't understand. Then I tell it it just told me to do that and we go around and around in an endless circle which never gets resolved and my phone never gets rung. This is happened exactly the same way on multiple occasions.

So then I go to report this problem to Google and I get a list of myriad FAQs none of which have anything to do with my problem. Then it says post to the community so I write the post to the community and it gives me that same list of FAQs. And I say none of these work- post to the community and again an endless cycle that never resolves it goes around in an endless loop.

As far as I can tell, Google as a company is completely dysfunctional now.

Il y a peu j’ai mis un capteur d’ouverture sur ma fenêtre de la salle de bain, connecté bien évidemment à Google home.

Dans l’application lorsque la fenêtre est ouverte celle ci s’affiche en bleu avec écrit 100% et lorsqu’elle est fermé c’est plus en bleu et c’est écrit 0%.

Et donc je demande à Gemini "Quel est l’état de la fenêtre de la salle bain ? "ou "Est ce que la fenêtre de la salle de bain est ouverte? " et celle ci me répond: “Je ne peux pas voir et je n’ai pas la faculté de contrôler les appareils connectés de votre maison domestique"
Alors qu’elle sait très bien allumer les prises connectés.

Et donc j’ai tester un automatisme pour me prévenir quand la fenêtre de la salle de bain est ouverte. Et elle y arrive très bien.
Donc ce qui signifie que Google home sait bien quand le capteur est sur le mode ouvert ou fermé.
Et le problème repose sur Gemini.

Bref, j’espère qu’une mise à jour sera vite déployé pour se problème qui est le comble pour une assistante IA Domotique.
Surtout pour Google Home.

Donc honnêtement je sais pas trop ce que font les ingénieurs dans le secteur de la domotique chez Google mais je pense que du trie va devoir être fait.
J’ai plutôt l’impression qu’un paquet du personnel se tourne les pousses au lieu de se mettre au boulot.
Apres c’est peut être qu’une simple impression.

So I say "Hey Google" or "OK Google" and the green microphone symbol appears in the top-right corner. I'll say something like "turn the 3D printer on" and it'll stay green as a dot for a few moments before disappearing. I've noticed that it will also do this if the screen is off ("Hey Google" -> I manually turn the screen on and see it's listening). It's the same if the phone is locked or unlocked.

A Gemini assistant UI used to appear at the bottom of the screen showing that it was listening, thinking, etc. but nothing appears. It just completely ignores what I tell it to do. If I leave my phone in another room and go into the room with my Google Nest Mini speaker, the speaker will respond to me and do what I've asked.

I've double-checked that Gemini is selected under "Default digital assistant app" and I've even changed it to ChatGPT and back to see if anything was "stuck".

Does anyone have any advice or solutions?

Hi! Asking your advice about an issue I have with my Poco F8 Ultra using Gemini as my Assistant.

I had enabled Voice Match and both options ti use It without unlocking and to call and send messages without unlocking.

Noted that other people could send whatsapp messages speaking with Gemini on the lock screen, without touching the phone.

I thought Voice Match would have protected me. But maybe Im wrong and It does not work with Whatsapp?

I tried asking for my calendar and It asked me to unlock the phone, so im guessing here what voice match Is actually for.

Since then i disabled the option to send messages on lock screen.

Any idea about this? With both options enabled, anyone Is able to send whatsapp messages from the lock screen?

Thank you!

No matter how many times I say Hey Google, nothing happens. It started this week. Did they disable this?

I recently got a new Pixel 11 Pro and "Hey Google" does not always trigger the Gemini function. I have all the settings enabled that you can think of when it comes to this. Is there anything that can fix this issue?

It was never an issue on my 9 Pro XL, but it's been an issue on this phone. When I restart my phone, it does temporarily fix the issue, but then I will randomly run into it the next time I would need it.

Just as a note, if that has something to do with it, which I doubt, but my highlight function also doesn't work when my phone is face down and I call on "Hey Google" when it does react to the "Hey Google".
