Introducing Google Allo, a smart messaging App that helps you say more and do more. Express yourself better with stickers, doodles, and HUGE emojis & text. Allo brings you the Google Assistant.

Incognito mode
Send messages with end-to-end encryption, use private notifications to help keep your chats more discreet, and control how long your messages stick around with expiring chats.

* Some features not available in all countries

 

Another method to get Google assistant for non-root Marshmallow:

DISCLAIMER– I won’t be responsible for your bricked device. I tried it and it worked. Doesn’t mean it will work for you too. Keep the original apk ready so that you can revert back in case anything happens.

What is working

• Voice recognition
• chats
• Navigation etc.

What isn’t working
The “OK Google” hotword detection is not working. It tells you to train your voice model everytime.

Requirements
apktool (make sure you have set it up properly)
A smali editor ( Notepad++ for Windows, I used kate on Linux)
patience
Android build tools (adb and zipalign)

Let’s start

1. First we need the Google apk. Make sure you have upgraded to the latest ( mine was 6.8.21.21). Copy the file to your PC. Name it Google.apk

2. Open up a terminal in Linux (in Windows, navigate to the folder where apktool is located, and shift+right click on a blank space and click “open command prompt here”). If you’re on Linux, make sure apktool is in your PATH.
Type:

apktool d Google.apk

This should create a folder called “Google”

3. Open Google/smali/com/google/android/apps/gsa/assistant/a/e.smali file with your preferred editor.

4. Look for a method called pU() like this-

.method public static pU()Z
 .locals 3

.prologue
 const/4 v0, 0x1

.line 97
 invoke-static {}, Lcom/google/android/libraries/e/a/a;->aY()Z

move-result v1

.line 2188
............

change:

const/4 v0, 0x0

to

const/4 v0, 0x1

Repeat the same process with another method called pT()
If you can’t find them in the path I provided, then look for something like this “ro.opa.eligible_device” inside an “if-neq” or “if-eqz”. If you find this, then that is probably the required method.

5. Return to the root directory (where the Google directory is located) and type

apktool b Google

6. The App should be ready in Google/dist directory. Move to there and copy the Original apk.

7. Open the original apk with a zip viewer (winrar or 7zip, I used ark). Extract the META-INF folder to the directory.

8. Open the modified apk with the zip viewer . Don’t extract it. Just drag and drop the META-INF folder on the apk. Make sure you have the compression option as “store”

9. Now install this app. Some people reported that it does not install from the device. I never tried to install it from my phone. I actually installed it via adb and it worked. type-

adb install -r Google.apk

10. Wipe the Data of the Google app from settings. No need to reboot.

Get it from Google Play
