Is it normal for Google Now to activate itself once in a while?.

I am running the most current version of the Android (KitKat) operating system. However I have discovered that, No matter what I am doing (for example watching TV or having a conversation with someone OR talking on my HOME TELEPHONE, Google Now will automatically activate and wait for a command from me. I have tried replacement phones of the same model, to see if that might solve the problem and that has made no difference.Is there anything that I can do to resolve this issue or is this an issue that I will have to wait for a fix for?.

    I have one more thing that may be helpful to you when you test GOOGLE NOW with the GOOGLE TALKBACK feature. Over the past few months I have found that it is also necessary for me to use the TOUCHLESS CONTROL feature in order to use GOOGLE NOW. If I do not use TOUCHLESS CONTROL when I use GOOGLE NOW I receive the following error message "SAY OK GOOGLE NOW OR TAP MIC", However, I am physically able to use the GOOGLE NOW feature WITH or WITHOUT the TOUCHLESS CONTROL feature. As I stated in a previous message I TRAINED the VOICE late last week.

Have you retrained the voice? How frequent does it happen?

    I just performed a HARD RESET on my phone on 10/29/14. At that time I trained the voice. Unfortunately, the best way that I can answer your question that you asked me regarding when this problem occurs is to tell you that this problem occurs at various unpredictable times. For example I have had this problem occur when I am talking to someone in the same room, this problem has also occured when I am talking to someone on my LANDLINE phone, and when I am watching TV. The odd thing is that in all of these instances NOTHING has been said about Google or Google Now.

How do I upgrade my disgo9200 to kitkat

Android 4.4 is available on some devices out of the box. You can tell by looking at the notifications bar at the top of the screen. If you're on 4.4 then all the icons should be white. Earlier versions appear blue.
If you want to double check, head to the settings app on your phone and look for About Phone under System. Scroll down a little and you'll find the Android Version bar which lists the version currently running.

Despite being released last year, only a handful of Android handsets currently use Android 4.4, though the list is ever-growing. First, you'll need to check online to see if your device has the update. You can either do this online or on your gizmo. For the latter, head to the Settings app and find About Phone under System. From here press System Updates. Your phone will do a little searching and either find the update or tell you the software is up to date.
A huge array of handsets from major manufacturers including (but not limited to) Sony, Samsung, Google, HTC and LG already support the upgrade to Android 4.4, with more being added by the month.
3. Check the update is ready on your phone
Even if the update has been released for your make of phone/tablet, it may not have come to your individual device just yet. Usually the phone itself will notify you when the update becomes available via the notification bar at the top.
Again, you can check yourself by heading to Settings, finding About Phone and pressing System Update.
4. Time to download
If your phone is compatible, downloading the update is very, very simple. Either find the notification about the update and tap it or head to Settings, scroll down to find About Phone, press it and find System Update. Follow on the onscreen instructions and your phone will reboot itself with sparkly new.
