I have a samsung galaxy A5 running android 4.4.4. I've seen many kitkat devices having the text "say ok google" on the google search widget in the home screen. How can I get that? It gives the look of a flagship and is awesome.

I figured out a way. I uninstalled the updates of the google app in my device and re-installed the latest version from the play stoore. Then the text appeared. Once I activate ok google detection form "any screen" the text disappears.
If I remember correctly it requires Samsung to enable something. You could try going into the Google app and have a poke around (settings
-> voice
-> OK Google detection
) and see if there's an option there. If not install the Google Now Launcher which does the OK Google from home screen.

@SuryaTeja I knew you said that but I thought that would make it appear. As its still there on my phone...– iTechyMay 29, 2015 at 16:23
Text in my widget comes and goes. When it is gone I do this to bring it back: I go into settings and reduce text size. I do not know why it works. I then restore size, and the text remains visible for several days.
