rmlandau,
Let's get yur microphone working again! When did you start noticing issues? Are other data services functioning? A Google search with the microphone does require a data connection. Please share some more details so we can better assist. Thanks!

I did have the data turned off. I turned it back on to see if that was the
problem and had the same results. In google, said OK Google and nothing
happened. Hit the microphone icon and "Listening" comes up but no voice
recognition. Checked the google settings Voice and it shows "OK Google
detection".
I also have Voice Search and nothing happens with that either.
Are there other settings I should be checking?

Let's get to the bottom of your equipment ocncerns rmlandau. Is there any physical or water damage to your phone? When was the last time the microphone on the device has worked properly. How is the audio on the phone when you are on a phone call?
Thank You,

I have an ellipsis tablet not a phone. It has not gotten wet. I also did an
Echo Test on Skype and it did not pick up the test recording. So, it
appears the problem is with the microphone built into the tablet. Suggestions?

rmlandau,
Hmm, that's odd! Let's take a closer look at this for you, does your audio work okay with headphones on? Are you able to hear any kind of notifications on your tablet?

I can hear fine. It's not a speaker problem, it's a microphone problem in
not recognizing my voice.

rmlandau,
Hmm, that's odd! Have you tried testing your tablet in safe mode? Try this and retest:
With the device powered on, press and hold the Power button (located on the upper-right edge) until the Tablet options prompt appears then release.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Touch and hold Power off until "Reboot to safe mode" appears then tap OK.
The restart process may take up to 45 seconds to complete.
Upon restart, Safe mode appears in the lower left of the unlock/home screen.

I have a tablet not a PC and don't think there is a safe mode capability on
my tablet. Is there any other way to test the microphone and voice
recognition?

Power the Device Up in Safe Mode - Verizon Ellipsis 8
[Device-Specific Instructions]
Safe Mode puts your device in a diagnostic state (returned to default settings) so you can determine if a third-party app is causing your device to freeze/reset/run slow.
An alternate method is available if the device is unresponsive or won't power on.
- With the device powered on, press and hold the Power button (located on the upper-right edge) until the Tablet options prompt appears then release.
- Touch and hold Power off until 'Reboot to safe mode' appears then tap OK.
The restart process may take up to 45 seconds to complete.
Upon restart, Safe mode appears in the lower left of the unlock/home screen.
Notes:
- With Safe Mode enabled, test device and app functionality. If the previous issue fails to occur, the cause has been isolated to a third-party app and all recently installed or updated apps should be uninstalled.
- Power cycle device to disable Safe Mode then reinstall and test each app one at a time to identify which app is causing the problem.
