In the Android 5 I faced with strange problem. The first call to the startListening of SpeechRecognizer results to the onError with error code 7 (ERROR_NO_MATCH).

I made test app with the following code:

if (speechRecognizer == null) {

    speechRecognizer = SpeechRecognizer.createSpeechRecognizer(this);
    speechRecognizer.setRecognitionListener(new RecognitionListener() {
        @Override
        public void onReadyForSpeech(Bundle bundle) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onReadyForSpeech");
        }

        @Override
        public void onBeginningOfSpeech() {
            Log.d(TAG, "onBeginningOfSpeech");
        }

        @Override
        public void onRmsChanged(float v) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onRmsChanged");
        }

        @Override
        public void onBufferReceived(byte[] bytes) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onBufferReceived");
        }

        @Override
        public void onEndOfSpeech() {
            Log.d(TAG, "onEndOfSpeech");
        }

        @Override
        public void onError(int i) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onError " + i);
        }

        @Override
        public void onResults(Bundle bundle) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onResults");
        }

        @Override
        public void onPartialResults(Bundle bundle) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onPartialResults");
        }

        @Override
        public void onEvent(int i, Bundle bundle) {
            Log.d(TAG, "onEvent");
        }
    });
}

final Intent sttIntent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
sttIntent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
        RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
sttIntent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, "en");
sttIntent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_PREFERENCE, "en");

speechRecognizer.startListening(sttIntent);

And have this log messages after first startListening call:

onError 7
onReadyForSpeech
onBeginningOfSpeech
onEndOfSpeech
onResults

And following messages after another startListening calls:

onRmsChanged
...
onRmsChanged
onReadyForSpeech
onRmsChanged
...
onRmsChanged
onBeginningOfSpeech
onRmsChanged
...
onRmsChanged
onEndOfSpeech
onRmsChanged
onRmsChanged
onRmsChanged
onResults

So, what is the reason of this error and how do I fix it?

As soon as you configure the "Okay Google" function to every screen the error appears.

So this seems to be the reason!

Deactivate the function and the problem should be solved
