Try double pressing the home button if you are on a stock ROM. Otherwise download Vlingo from the market.

Hi.
I have a major issue woth SGS2.
I have to make calls from a earphone and a motorcycle helmet, also with no internet connection avaible.
So I bought Cyberon Voice Commander (Italian versione).
It works very well, but when i press the button on the earphone, it starts the stock samsung voice recognition software, whic requires internet connection and doesn't work very well.
I can't associate eraphone button with cyberon.
I have contacted Cyberon, the answered:
"Here I'm sorry to inform you that we found on Samsung Galaxy S II, the Bluetooth handsfree profile (for voice dialing) was not implemented as Android's standard definition. Thus when user presses the BT button, only built-in voice recognition app will be launched automatically. We're really sorry for the inconvenience. Before Samsung fix this issue (if they will), if you'd like a refund please send us your order number. Thanks for your understanding in advance!"
Is there a way to remove samsung stock voice recognition software and associate cyberon with earphone and possibly also with home double click?
I am very unhappy by now!
Thanks!
FIXED!
I have found a fix!!
* Root your device
* Set google as default voice recognition instead of vlingo in settings>voice recognition (not sure this is important to do)
* Install Titanium backup (i Have paid full version, but probably you can use free
* Disable "comandi vocali" (Italy) which in english should be like "voice commands"
* Than I have cancelled the BR pairing, restarted the phone and paired BT again...
* Set Cyberon to use long press bt button to start
IT WORKS!!
What about same fix but without root?
I also need fix to disable standard Voice Talk and use Cyberon Voice Speed Dial.
It was worked fine before KE7 firmware was released
I believe it's hard
I think it's hard disabling built-in voice commands without rooting.
Also the "tasker" metod I used before needs the kill process with rooting rights option to kill voice command process and run cyberon.
Cyanogenmod for samsung galaxy s2 is quite ready and it will not have samsung apps anymore, but I guess you won't install it since you won't routing.
My personal consideration is that with every kind of device you can't expect it to do everything you whish unless you work "hard" on it.
I have choosen an open platform like android because is very simple to root and you can always chose an alternative rom to make the phone exactly as you whish.
I understand that sometimes custom rom could helps you. But I really like factory rom on SGS2, no freezes, very fast. I really see no reason to flash home cooked rom's and after that scream on each forum , that something doesn't work
Anyway, with prev. firmware everything was okay, but not with new one. And I really hope that this can be fixed without rooting.
Yes. I think you're right. I'll switch to a custom rom only when it will be really stable and fast.. I have messed up with custom rom for years on WM, now I want a little relax!
But rooting is not a custom rom.. my rom is the latest leaked from samsung (android 2.3.4), than I rooted and disabled build in voice recognition to enable Cyberon. The rom is still the original. Also now I can make full backups of the entire rom in case of corruptiom, failure or something other. Anyway noone is forced to think rooting is better. I hope Samsung will fix voice command incompatibility for anyone!

So as I can see there is no fix yet available even with latest leaked firmware?> That sad!
Latest leaked
Well. I can't assure you latest firmware doesn't fix it.
I think it doesn't fix, but I used the modified version of the firmware that doesn't require formatting, so build in voice recognition was already disabled.
Someone should try e clean install of latest firmware 2.3.4 and than install cyberon to see what happen..
For now I'm happy this way.
Hi, I can call someone like galaxy tab 7"? I can compose the number and call?
Use the search button next time 'cause this question has been answered a billion times..
But the answer is no, you can't call with this tab (yet) because honeycomb doesn't support the phone functionality. The hardware is present in the tab but the software simply doesn't know how to utilize it. Maybe when our developers get the complete source code for honeycomb they can cook something up but for the time being we have to use a real mobile phone to call with.
Uhh, yes you can call with this tab. Install Google Voice, get a free number, buy Groove IP from the Market, 5 minutes later you will have a giant slab of a phone.

i.e. never....
Edit: about google voice.. I hate to break it to you, but not everyone is american.
Post #3 is correct. Obviously you have to be on wifi, but you can very easily make phone calls with this tablet. I have done it many times. To the OP, if you need links or anything else please let us know.

Sorry, it's possible to make phone calls if you can get a google voice number. Better?

Just as you can access US/UK video with a US IP address - you can get Google Voice with a US number.
Get a free (or rent) US voip number, register for google voice.

I can't speak for the Tab (I have one now), but I was able to use Skype with my Xoom when I had that tablet. It worked fine. Just need to download it and use a wi-fi connection.

I assume you are talking about using a VoIP provider? Is there any way of making FREE calls in to US numbers using Google Voice Callback or something similar? I've been unsuccessful in trying to make it work on mine (wifi only version)
I tried groove IP the call quality sucks no one can hear me but I am able to text from my Google voice number

This is correct ...and the first mod I did. Don't forget to click forward calls to gtalk in Gvoice. Scince my main number is ported, it rings and texts my tab and phone simultaneously. sweet. Only downside is wifi/teather required
Hey
Im looking for a application that lets me answer calls by voice by saying a prerecorder word of my choosing. While at first appears like a gimmick, its nice for when you are in the shower, a call comes in and you dont want to hit the screen with wet hands. Say the word and the phone picks up the call and (optionally) turns on the loadspeaker.
What application can I use?
im looking for same app to..
i'm looking for the reverse of it: start calls by saying prerecorded words (as voice dialing doesn't work in my language but i'd use it)

Intresting
I saw some of these apps which you can tell your phone to send a message and the specific person you want to send to. I thought they can also receive the call and call others by voice.
Anyone have information on what Im searching for?
Thanks

Still nothing at all? Or even someone remotely intrested in the idea?
On the Sprint SG3 is there a way to rid of the voice command without rooting?
I use bluetooth a lot and don't want to deal with the pre-installed voice command. I want to use another program.
Did you check under Language and Input?

No I don't have the SG3 yet. I have the II. I'm looking at getting the 3 but wanted to know if the 3 came pre-installed with the same type of voice command, which I believe it does. I would rather use another program. The only way to get the voice command to not boot up with bluetooth was to root it and freeze it.
I was hoping there was a simpler way with the III.
I have a Sprint/Credo CDMA Samsung Galaxy S II (SPH-D710) with ICS, not rooted.
The phone used to have smart dialing (aka T9 dialing), where by typing the first few letters of a contact name in the phone dialler, that contact would be selected. Great timesaver. This was a stock feature, not something I got from a 3rd party app.
This functionality is now gone, i.e. all I get is the numbers I dial.
I have not installed anything or knowingly made any setting changes that could have caused this.
How do I get smart dialing (T9 dialing) back?
Thanks!

This post is currently in the i9100 forums. You should probably go to the SPH-D710 (aka Epic 4g Touch) forums to get your question answered.
