I was wondering if any one has made a voice encyption program so that two people with XDA'S could talk in a safe enviroment?

I am looking for an app that would enable me to dial contacts or do actions on my Android phone by voice. The standard Android voice recognition is unacceptable because I am not from an English speaking country.
My old phone had this feature where I could record a "voice command" for any of my contacts and only those would be considered when voice dialing. This also enabled for much more variance in speaking so I suppose it would be helpful for English speaking users too.
Is there any app that would provide this functionality? Or is somebody working on one?
I am in a similar situation, a number of my family have non-English names and Android cannot recognise them. I've looked everywhere and cannot find one either. Everyone seems to rely on voice recognition which is, frankly, crap for anything remotely non-standard in language.
You can use Voice Speed Dial by Cyberon Corp, it's very good
.
Moved to Q&A
it will be great if such an app exists.
let me now if you find one
is there a development/process/information about this thread?
To make the Android voice recognition work, go to Settings>Voice Input & Output>Language>English (US). You'll be able to use all the voice commands. I don't know how well voice dialing will work for you though. It works for me many times with Indian names, but also fails a lot. Try Vlingo too, it might work better.

Well I guess it depends which way you look at this...
I use (used) google voice strictly for voicemail on the Evo4g but it appears that somehow this works differently on the E3d.
The app essentially hijacked my phone and made itself the default receiver of text messages as well as voice/voicemail. I liked it better when i had the choice which program make all my calls and I much prefer the sense sms app over the one built into google voice.
Maybe i did something different but I noticed even the differences in the setup of google voice...it seems that sprint's carrier integration now allows for all this. Just wish i had the option to choose what part of the app does what.
Thought others might want to know as well. phone is GREAT by the way =]o
Did the same thing for me. Easy fix though. Go to voice.google.com and Deactivate Google Voice on your Sprint phone in Voice Settings. Deactivate call forwarding. Then you can re-enable call forwarding.
I was pissy about this myself. I hadn't tried the fix but unwilling as soon as I get to my pc.
So does this work? Does this just do phone or text as well? any update?
It's not an EVO 3D thing it's a Sprint Google integration thing. You just didn't setup your EVO from scratch after the Voice integration happened.
I love Google Voice integration. I've posted these links in other threads but they are good reads on why you are better off actually integrating and how to still use your default messaging apps.

Here are some other cool things I'm able to do now myself. I can make outbound and inbound calls on my google talk using my cell number on my computer wherever I have internet access. I bought an OBI110 and hooked up a phone to it so now I have free VOIP calls whenever I answer or receive calls to my CELL number on this phone. Now I don't have to give anyone a different number and I can still control who gets to reach me at what time of the day. I can answer and receive texts on my computer, laptop, tablet all using my cell number. All my texts are backed up and searchable to my google voice account (even texts I send from my phone using one of the regular messaging apps, not google voice app)
My opinion. Take the time and setup integration right. It's one MAJOR advantage of being an Android user on Sprint now. You're missing out on way more by not setting it up than you would by setting it up.
Oh and for those who don't want to lose your old Google Voice Number, Google lets you keep additional numbers at $20 per number.
Well, I think the voice recognition will be very handy while I'm driving, as can use for navigation and then still answer calls and read my texts.
I was wondering - what i the purpose of "double tap" as it only seems to work if you are actually in the voice talk app - in which case its just as easy to say hi galaxy. Or is there a way you can get it so double tap always works?
Also can you have voice talk running in the background so it always waits for you to say "hi galaxy", or does it need to be the foreground application to run. Expanding on this say I use voice to get navigation THROUGH voice talk, can I still use voice talk?
Sorry so many questions .. thanks though
(p.s. only just got it and trynna get to see how i can use it.)
Also finally - in messages how do you do a full stop/comma etc?
EDIT: Just tried to use voice talk from navigation (after opening from voice talk) and doesn't pay attention for hi galaxy - is there any way i can make it still search as would be VERY handy
assuming no way?
Hey, I'm switching from Sprint to T-Mobile, and I need to decide if I want t port my number to TMo or keep it as my Google Voice number, with forwarding to my new number. I know T-Mobile doesn't have the full integration Sprint does, but the big question nobody seems to have answered anywhere that Google can find is this: on T-Mobile, does Google Voice still let you choose whether to receive texts via the GV app or the stock messaging app, or are you stuck using the Voice app?

Dude, your signature is being read by a ton of folk who's third or fourth language is English. Try writing a few posts in Russian, or better yet, Mandarin, and you'll get what their up against. (Yes, that's a deliberate dangling participle.) Although I agree with your basic gist for the most part, your approach isn't going to win anyone over to respect our ever-changing, hybrid-by-nature mother tongue. Respect is the key to respect.
To answer your question, you can set it up so Google Voice texts are forwarded to your stock messaging app/service/number. I use Handcent pretty much exclusively with my Google Voice number, but it doesn't support MMS, yet. I still use my cell number for MMS, but there've been rumors in the mill for months.
T-Mobile has always lagged behind the other major US carriers in Google integration ever since the G1 wasn't the only Android phone on the market. They lag because their cheap, and they're cheap because they lag. It's OK with me, I'd rather hack my phone than pay too much for it.
From PC, gmail can make and receive free phone calls to U.S. using GV number.
Will Android phone ever get this feature?
I have been asking this question for a while because I believe Google Talk app has all the infrastructure to do so. Specifically, it's using the same XMPP protocol. So technically, Google Talk app can make and receive phone calls. There must be a political reason why Google decided to leave it out from Android.
I heard that Google is playing nice with the carriers because calling from cell phone is their turf. Once Android phone can make free calls natively, less people will get the voice plans, which is detrimental to wireless carriers business. Google relies on the carriers to sell Android devices.
However, there's a speculation that Google will introduce a data only wireless service in 2013. I guess Google will have a native VoIP solution then. What do you think?
Please don't discuss 3rd party apps such as Groove IP to make free calls. I'm well aware of how to make free internet calls. In fact, that's why I brought up the question. Why not include phone calling feature in Google Talk?
Also, please do not claim that Google Voice already offers that service. GV is not a VoIP.
