OK Google and s voice: s voice is not always on topic

After testing the note 4 nexus 6 and s5 prime, i have come to the conclusion that the always on feature of the note 4 is not always on.

With the google search bar widget floating on the homescreen with the screen on the note 4 would pick up the okay google command 100% of the time.

Now with the screen off or locked, it would pick up the command 100% of the time at times, 0% sometimes( doing this test makes me feel retarded). This leads me to believe that when it doesnt respond, the mic simply isnt listening, an s voice issue. And that the google floating widget uses a completely separate routine for its listening.

Anyone have any inputs on this? Will lollipop fix it? Or is it something that cannot be fixed?

@Danvdh and team
Simply thank you for this gift. I have on issue with Viber app that I like to share:
I am using the ROM from this page:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2557353
Clean installed with TWRP with phone setup as new.

1. When I call someone through viber app and or receive a call through viber, speaker phone is always on and I cannot turn it off. Has anyone else have this issue and resolved it or is it some settings that I may have mistakenly ticked off?
See the attached screen shot of the viber call and you will notice that the speaker icon it greyed out and it is always greyed out. I cannot turn it off as it is greyed out.

Please help????

[Q] 4G LTE notification always on topic

Hi... I am using 4.4.2 stock ROM, rooted.

The 4G LTE symbol is always on.

None of the following attempts removes it -
1. Connecting to Wifi
2. Removing Caller Id
3. Stopping all Verizon background apps
4. Stopping mobile data
5. Switching Wanam Xposed "Persistent data type icon" under notifications either on or off

It always remains grayed out but up there when I am connected to Wifi, like the picture below.

Is it also like this for you if you are using 4.4.2? Any more ideas that I can try to remove it?

Password/fingerprint always required even though set to 5 minutes topic

I have the "secured lock time" set to 5 minutes in my lockscreen/fingerprint settings. However, despite this, if I push my power button to put my phone to sleep, and then I immediately push it again to turn my phone back on, I'm always required to scan my fingerprint/enter my password.

I thought by choosing 5 minutes, it should only require me to scan fingerprint/enter password if I don't use my phone for roughly 5 minutes. But it seems that if I put my phone to sleep by hitting the power button, I'm always required to scan fingerprint, no matter how little time has passed.

Any ideas? I've tried every setting (15 seconds all the way to 1 hour) and they all do the same thing. I've also tried turning fingerprint security off, and then on again. No help.

The only thing that comes to mind is that I do have an Exchange email setup that has a security policy. But it also allows 15 minutes. AND, I have it installed through the email app Nine, and I have Nine set to only operate security on the application level rather than the device level. So I don't see how Nine could possibly be requiring me to enter a fingerprint.

Would greatly appreciate any input!
