you will need to set your language to US English for that to work.

Unfortunately, from what I've read, it will not work when the screen is off... Only when it's on.

You shouldn't need to do anything other than have the screen in though, unless I've misread stuff

You have to be in your home screen and the screen must be on and unlocked to work.

Also your voice language must be set to English (US) because that is the only option they have enabled "OK Google" for.

To do this, swipe left to your Google Now page and scroll to the bottom of all your cards, click the three dot setting button on Google Now page, not the ones on the black navigation bars. Click Voice and change the language to English (US)
