Did you try to activate the “Okay, Google” command on your Galaxy S6 or Galaxy S6 edge, but never found a way to do it? Well, Google accepted that there was indeed a problem, but they have now verified that the hotword is working again.
The hotword detection was broken for weeks, and the option to activate it was totally missing from the settings. Some users believed that it was an intentional omission by Samsung, but it isn't completely true. It turns out that it was just an old bug, or what you can see as a conflict between Google app and S Voice. A Google representative mentioned on the company's forum that the bug has been fixed. In order to get the feature working, users need to have the latest version of Google app (v4.6) installed on their devices.
If you still can't get it working, you might need to clear the cache, or even clear the data. If you activate the option to enable “Okay, Google” from any screen, S Voice will be disabled, except for the times when the screen is off. Many users that I know have disabled the S Voice altogether as they prefer Google Now over Samsung's solution. Do let us know if the hotword detection is working on your Galaxy S6 or S6 edge.
