By skyforbes Let's start off with the device. I have a Samsung S25 Ultra updated to the latest firmware. Gemini is up to date, the Google app, Google maps, I'm basically really anal about updates and do them constantly.
Recently Gemini particularly over my car bluetooth isn't working properly. I do not have Android Auto in my car and have never had these issues until recently.
- Side Button: Whenever I am connected to my car bluetooth and feel the need to click the side button to activate Gemini (instead of saying hey Google over really loud music/AC) it refuses to hear me speak no matter what I do. (Turning off AC and lowering music doesn't help.) If instead I say "Hey Google" it will work and take voice prompts.
-
No audio for some prompts: If I ask Gemini to send a message (again over car bluetooth) it won't audibly say what's the message. I have to look and see when the mic activates. I'll then give it the message which it will then audibly say is this message correct and repeat the message to me and ask if I want to send it. When I say send or yes it won't pick up the mic anymore.
-
Randomness: I'll give it a prompt and it'll do something else entirely. Even when not connected through car bluetooth.
What's going on?
It was working flawlessly before.
