[Q] Disabling voice talk - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I find the Voice Talk on my Samsung Galaxy S2 very annoying. It seems to load up even when I click the middle button once ...sometimes difficult to start it when I click the button twice...
Is there anyways, to disable to middle button to run the voice talk app... I hardly use it anyways.... of cos without rooting the phone.
Thanks

Any chance of doing this without having to edit "\android\internal\policy\impl\PhoneWindowManage" or use a theme?

Finally rooted my GalaxyS2 via DarkyROM HD ...and deleted the annoying Vlingo app along with other apps too. Brilliant.

Congrats mate. Now u can enjoy fully your cellphone
Using XDA Premium over Resurrection Remix ICS, the Best Rom ever made

Anyone running ICS can easily remove voice talk (Vlingo) by installing go launcher from the market, go to apps drawer ,long press on voice talk,hit delete, Vlingo gone....uninstall go launcher..done! No rooting required.

Brilliant! I hate this app. I always seemed to double press Home by accident. I use Go Launcher anyway, and somehow didn't think to try uninstalling Voice Talk

yeah!

[Q] Delete Vlingo

Does anyone know how to uninstall/delete Vlingo without using adb?
Or at least change its configuration so it doesnt open when I press 2 times "home"...

Looking at your signature, you are rooted yes?
If so, do you have titanium backup? if so, then you can choose to either freeze or delete vlingo(freezing is the safest option, in case you decide you may want to use the app, or just in case).
You can also use root explorer to delete vlingo.

I had the same problem, bothered me to death; Solution above is the only solution I've found so far. One thing I've noticed though since freezing Vlingo: Now it just sometimes does literally nothing when I press my home button (probably when I use my home button twice with almost no pause between)
(btw: U gotta look for "Speech", "Sprache", "Voice" or something like that, in your language)
Thank you both for answering! I had tried both solutions but didnt find Vlingo to delete, so specially thanks to kaassema for

Because it sometimes starts on accident, for example when pressing the home-button twice fast, when all you wanted was twice the action of a one-button-press...
...or for clarification: I really have no use for Vlingo, nor intention to start it, yet I have seen it's interface at least 35 times already... By accident! Thus disabled it

You can disable Vlingo quite easiily on the Samsung Galaxy S2.
Settings>Language and Keyboard>Samsung keypad>Voice Input
Untick the box and the double click on home no longer brings up Vlingo.

What if I'm using Swype keys?
Seems your suggestion didn't work.
{i'm assuming the settings is overriding global setting}
JohnN6. That does actually not work. Even if you do that, disable the processes and swipe the data for Vlingo, it will always start, with Eula questions and everything, every time you either double-tap home, or more itrritatingly, if you hit your headset button to try and bring up any preferred installed dialer. The latest three software-updates for the S2 has been like this. And to add insult to injury, Vlingo has actually no hope of working for a Swede like me. Even if I tried to voice-dial a Swedish friend, by idiotically trying to pronounce the swedish names in English, it has almost zero chance to do a correct detection.
This software just has to be able to be disabled again (like the first Software version my S2 came delivered with). I am seriously thinking of just throwing the phone and get something else over this issue. Having to touch the phone to dial anyone is in my occupation often putting me in life-threatening situations. So it is really, really bad all of this...
@ SDPlus: I had the same problem and solved it. Using Titanium Backup free version on a rooted SGS2, it was easy (all english commands are translated from German, so could be not perfect):
First I entered Titanium, "Backup & Restore", and searched for "Vlingo". As a result there came "Sprachsuche", which is German for voice search. Pointing on it long enough brought up a menu, where I could choose "backup", and after that I clicked in the same menu on "force to stop". Then I clicked on "uninstall", and off it went.
Since I have a better app for voice dial (cyberon), Vlingo was pain. Now Cyberon works as expected.
Reasons for getting rid of Vlingo (someone asked): 1. I don't want to accept their terrible terms, where I allow to collect data about everything I do , whom I call, when, whatever. Disagreeing ends up in a not working voice-dial, even if you have a paid app for that installed. That is kidnapping. 2. It does not work good enough for me. 3. If I want to be binded to a software, I would have decided to buy an IPhone.
tnx it fixed my problem too
PS: In dutch/flemish it's called "spraakopdrachten".
If you freeze it with Titanium backup the double press doesn't work anymore.
You da man, thanks much for the info.....worked perfetly!!!
I want to take the subject and would like to know if you have any good replacement for the Vlingo app?
And if it have Portuguese language!?
Thanks!

Doesn't work. I have it like that for months and voice command it is still popping up .
Very annoying
Anyone have a fix to stop Vlingo poping up all the time? Even if I dont double press the home key it comes up. Very annoying. I dont have my phone rooted either.
The best way which i did last week
I ROOTED my Galaxy s2
Installed titanium tool and I freeze the voice command
Never again I got the voice command pop up
For those who already seeking for a salvation:
Get your phone rooted, instally Titanium Backup (even free version).
When you in Titanium Backup press menu and hit Filters, enter Vlingo, Accept. And then Go to Batch operations scroll down to Freeze apps and there you will only see Vlingo sh.t in your language just hit the Run button and you are now FREE FROM VLINGO.

Confirmed, it works.
use go launcher
Install Go Launcher.
Open the app drawer
Click the dots and then App Manager
Click the trash can next to Voice Command.
Click OK.
Not rooted. Ics 4.0.3
I never accepted the eula after ics update. Don't think that matters. No more vlingo ! Swype still fully functional.

Hulu finally! Rooted or Not

I came across this app at the market that was just put up today called DroidLu.
This app will allow you to watch Hulu on our SGT 10.1 without needing any flash hack! It costs 99 cents I would have paid more for this since it made it possible for me to watch Hulu! Now 3.2 has come to our tablet previous hacks don't work.
I can confirm it works!
Currently on Tsk650 V5 GT-P7510
Note that Hulu only works when you run it through Droidlu app. And make sure that you have latest flash player 11

It's barely an app. It's very difficult to scroll on the progress bar, very difficult to adjust the volume. The worst part is that the return button doesn't take you to the previous page. So you have to start all over again when you click on the wrong button. If you hit the lock button, you also have to start all over again after unlocking. So, if you want to want the show from beginning to end without interruption, without any misclicks, without jumping forward or adjusting volume, this is the app you want.

I noticed that to but like all early apps its a work in progress. Dev says that future updates will remedy our concens. Its still a great freakin deal to be able to watch Hulu! This is the only app ive seen so far that can do this. Patience patience

I was able to track down the apk at the link below but I can't get it to play any videos
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-applications/183229-droidlu.html
Has anyone gotten this app to work on a 3.2 ROM? I've tried it on overcome 2.0 and Task 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2 with no luck. When the video starts to load it just closes.
Any one else?
You can get hulu to work using the old method. You just have to remove flash, copy the old .so to /data/data/com.adobe.flashplayer, reinstall flash from the market, then use a hex editor to change the plugin variable AND to WIN. I am running galaxy task 5.3 and I just watched Castle without any problems.

Would you mind creating a new thread with a sticky how to?
My experience today:
Search the market for "DroidLu" and it will bring up an app called Flash Video Browser by Dan Lockard for just under a buck. I just found out about it on droidforum, installed it on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 and it works! I'm watching Modern Family right now!

Yep, just installed and it works perfectly. I'll give his FlashBrowser a try in a sec, because this is definitely worth $0.99!
EDIT: Spoke too soon. FlashBrowser shows as not compatible with my Verizon 4G LTE tab. I'll stick with the old DroidLu APK (linked above, working) and see if there's another way to donate to him.

[Q] Molten ROM Voice Search Activates Screen Grabber

I've had Molten 2.1 since the day ryman released it, and it's running great but, just realized that when I hold down the search button ScreenGrabber is activated rather than Voice Search.
I flashed it over stock GB 2.3.4.
I checked ScreenGrabber for any options to disable this but there are none.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
And thanks to ryman for the awesome ROM. It runs great.

I think he is referring to the actual hardware button
I think the solution would be to just tap the button, not hold.

Yeah. When you hold down search button on the phone (actual hard button) it opens up screen grabber. I like it though.

Have you tried going to settings, applications, and browse the all tab for screengrabber. select it and pick clear defaults. See if that helps, I have yet to try Molten, don't know if this will help/work. Good Luck

Sorry for the late reply.
In stock and previous versions of Molten, when I press and hold the Search hard button, it would open Voice Commands. As someone mentioned, it's great for driving and being lazy. Currently, it opens up screengrabber.
You cannot clear the defaults on screengrabber. I backed it up and uninstalled it with TB. That is a crappy work around but it does work. Although, it doesn't work with a Bluetooth hands free device. Pressing the search key used to open voice commands, now it simply calls back your most recent call.
I haven't had time to flash M2.2 but I will. Thanks again for the help!

Set Samsung Voice Command as default?

In previous versions of the Shostock ICS ROM, when I used voice commands with my Blueant Q2 headset, it automatically used Samsung Voice Command for making hands-free calls (worked great). But since I upgraded to 4.1.4, it defaults to Google Voice Dialer and then doesn't work. I can't find GVD in the applications list to deactivate nor can I find a way to make SVC the default.
Shoman didn't have any idea about the problem.
Can someone help?
Thanks in advance.
I think shoman misunderstood your original question when he responded about installing SVC yourself, but you only gave him a couple hours to respond to your clarification about setting the default before you posted over here.
Which voice command pops up for you now when you press the search button on the phone? The Google Now one that has "Search, or say Google" in the search bar or a different one?

When I press the button my Blueant Q2 headset, the Google Voice Dialer pops up. The little red circle to the right of Google then has a never-ending circling line and GVD never seems to engage.
I want SVC to pop up, not GVD.
Does that help? Can you help?
BTW, I just upgraded to Shostock 4.1.4.
Gotcha. I think I understand. Have you tried a long press on your phone's search button to pop up all search/dial options and set Samsung's to default?

I just tried long pressing Search, per your suggestion, and set Samsung Voice Talk as the default. After that, when I long press Search SVC comes up. But when I use my headset, GVD still pops up.
Other ideas?
I do appreciate the help...
After messing around some, this seems to be a problem with 4.1.4. I use AVX as my default and hadn't gotten around to reinstalling it since I flashed shoman's latest. After restoring it, I set it to default and am having the same exact deal as you, a press on the search button opens Google Now but my headset starts the Google dialer with the spinning red circle even though my default is set to something else. A long press on the search button will open my default, though.
Just flashed back to 4.1.2 and the problem persisted, so it isn't the latest version of the Shostock ROM.
So what has changed? I don't know. But being able to voice dial while driving is essential for me and I can't do it now.
Thoughts?

Again, many thanks.
Just restored back to 4.1.1 and SVC works fine. So it is since 4.1.2.
Good detective work on your part.
At least I'm functioning again.

It's more than that. Before Google Now, a press on the phone's search button opened whatever your default was set to (same as a long press on my Plantronics set). Now, a press always opens Google Now's search, and a long press opens your default. I could live with that, but our headsets now always open up neither, it starts the old google voice command. Pretty funky.

Hardly an "epic fail" on your part given the awesome ROM that you have created.
Any solution?
I restored back to 4.1.1 and it works great. As I need hands-free, I'll stick with that until this problem gets ironed out (or you create a JB ROM!).

Well I'm gonna have to remove Google now and offer it as an add on.... Well I'll link to it so people can choose for themselves.

Thanks for your responsiveness. Any thoughts on developing a Jelly Bean ROM (no pressure, just curious).

Google Experience Launcher

Yesterday, Android 4.4 KitKat was release along with the brand new Nexus 5. Since the HTC Droid DNA will not be getting 4.4 for awhile, here is the brand new Google Experience Launcher!

I have replace Nova Launcher with the Google Experience Launcher as my daily driver. It is just that amazing. Good job GOOGLE! :highfive:
How is it?
How has it been? Should I uninstall Nova Prime first? Is there a way to get rid of this launcher if I needed to? Any information you can pass along woudl be very helpful. I just do not want to brick or ruin my phone.Thank you!
You Beat me to it!! Icons look a little big for me. But love it.

Yeah no problems here. Download those three apps, push them to SYSTEM/APP, change permissions then reboot. You can have as many launchers installed as you like. I'd suggest leaving Nova. Try the New Google, if you don't like it just go into system/apps and delete the 3apps that you pushed to that folder. No biggie.

Google Now Fix
"Long press the home screen, select Settings. Select Voice. Select Language to change the default. Change to another language, I choose English – UK. Hit Home. Do a Google Search. Repeat the first three steps. Change back to English – US." - Derek Ross
Just follow the above instructions and Google now should work properly.
I love this launcher! Yeah... the icons are a little bit too big, but its seamless integration into Google now has sold me.
google now works flawlessly for me, it's the launcher that is messing up...
Does it "stop" when you say "OK Google" and do a voice search?
I fixed the force close issue but voice search doesn't work whatsoever since I downloaded the apks. Anyone else having this problem? Or know how to fix it?

I guess I should have pointed out I'm on CM10.2, 10/29. I've had it all day have not had a problem yet. But with the icons being so big it makes it seem that oys cheaper looking. Idk.how to explain.
Maybe if we could get the 4.4 icons it would be different. I'm sure a cyan theme is just around the corner anyway.
You may have to push this file (http://www.mediafire.com/download/0hb7wj2b18lw7jo/libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.zip) to system/lib in order to fix the voice search issue.
