Greetings,
I have iGO installed (AT&T SGS2) which I want to use as my default navigation.
I used Titanium Backup to freeze AT&T Navigation (I cannot seem to find an app called "navigation", it has a blue arrow). So now when I use Voice Talk to 'navigate', Google Maps opens up.
Is there a way to change the default to iGO?
Thanks.
Bump - anyone?!
I am shocked that no one knows.

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?
I installed CM7 build 08082011 on my Inspire 4G, and I've been using it for a few months and TTS has never worked (Navigation, Speaktoit, Voice Dialer etc.); it always FCs.
I've tried v. 2.0 and 3.1.
Any ideas?
Tts need voice search.apk as well. Do you have it?

I do; and Voice Search works well actually. Voice Dialer however has never worked; it pops up and never says anything (i.e. "Speak Now"), and doesn't take my commands either.
I had force close last time. But I forgotten that I've frozen my tts library or anything about voice command. Once I defroze, everything works.

I'll mess around with that and get back.
Okay, apparently there's an app called TTS Service. I had it uninstalled for some reason. I restored it (thank you TB) and everything's awesome.
Hello Iris!
text to speech
i want to have voice prompt in my android app.., i have used the text to speech program for this, that program will take user input in the form of edit text and then speak out that text, i want to use that program for voice prompt like when the time is set it will speak out this phrase " your time is set to" and the new time which is set by time picker like 08:00,so it should speak like "your time is set to 8 o' clock" can anybody help me out in this please ??
I've been playing around S voice and it's worse than the standard voice command android comes with. I was trying to find the app for it but could not. Only S voice was in the applications. I saw it is installed under "manage applications" but I can't open the application. Can someone help me find the file to run the standard voice command app? Thanks.
Couldn't agree more. I used the stock "Voice Search" app on my last phone to send text messages ("Text [CONTACT] message [MESSAGE]"), and it worked great. "S Voice" is pitiful. Has a tough time recognizing my contact names, and doesn't even pick up spoken punctuation.
So to bring back the option to use the "Voice Search" app, I just uninstalled the one that came with the phone (version 3.something), and then reinstalled from the market (which currently has version 2.1.4). Was able to find it in my app tray after that.
One caveat: I'm rooted, and uninstalled using Titanium Backup. You may not be able to do it from the "Application Manager".
Hope this helps!
Yeah I removed it as well. I found it too slow to respond to what you say. Anyway voice command doesn't really seem that useful to me. If I set an alarm using voice I would be paranoid and check the alarm was actually set.
I've tried settings>language and input>text-to-speech options and changing the voice there, but the GPS voice still is the same. Any ideas?
I downloaded the free app called Ivona text to speech. The voices are free to download while it's in beta so act fast. I changed the tts settings in my phone to Ivona and Google maps is using the voice from it. Much better voice than what Google had in there. Make sure you force stop Google maps or restart your phone to get the changes made.

Baring some unexpected bug.. just change the TTS library, then select a new voice. If Ivona didn't work for you, then try the SVOX TTS library or one of the other TTS packages instead.
SVOX classic TTS
Install the new library, then go to Settings > General > Language and Input > Text-to-speech options and choose SVOX.

New to V30. How can I enable the visual voicemail tab on sideloaded Google phone app? Really missing this from previous device.
(I know I can view my visual voicemail in the pre-installed carrier voicemail app....I don't want to use that, I much prefer having it built right into the Google phone app)
Edit: I was able to get the voicemail tab to show up by downloading an old Google voice apk and checking the option "show voicemail in dialer" in settings. However, there is no 'play' button on the messages, so I cannot listen to them....at least this is a start. Any ideas?

I did mine through a computer awhile back because whatever phone I had wouldn't let me change.

I had to download the T-Mobile visual voicemail app from the Play Store. Unfortunately the working Google dialer (much older version than the one in the Play Store) doesn't have the voicemail tab and I couldn't figure out how to get it to show up.
