[Q] Say "Cheese"??? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Various reviews mentioned that you are able to use S Voice to trigger the camera shutter by saying "Cheese"
I have tried this many time in the S3 camera but can never trigger this. Is this feature removed or has anyone been able to trigger it?

Strange, I keep trying but it just will not work. So basically you just go to camera app, and then say the word right? or do you have to enable any settings for the voice to work?

Go to Settings, Language and Keyboard, turn on Voice cmd for apps.
Open S Voice, say "Open Camera ", then try saying "cheese" when ready to take a shot.

Yup its a bug.
Disable google text-to-speech and samsung tts in application manager. Thats the only way to fix it for now.

S Voice not working, won't always speak ???

S voice doesn't always want to talk, and yes Voice Prompt is turned on.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Same with driving mode text to speech, wont always talk. I've installed the voice synthesis software, what is wrong?
Anyone else having this issue?

Same behavior here.
I call it the Vlingo Disaster. This S-Voice bs was just as buggy on Epic Touch (sgs2 for Sprint). It's just a buggy piece of crapware.

There was a fix for GB roms for Epic Touch - replace the vlingo.apk (or something like that, don't remember exact name) with a google voice dialer app (name the same as the one being replaced). I wonder if it still works...
Try reading the OP of this thread, see if changing those settings helps.

@nabbed, how would changing the name of an app before install (which would fail on a lot of apps) help, when the app is installed, svoice will not use that just because it was named what the original app file was named, dosnt work that way.

Sorry, I forgot to add a link, please look again, and read that OP in that thread I linked to.... But like I said, just because you change the name of an app, dosnt mean its called upon by svoice. Now if you unistall vlingo it will use what ever you have installed, no matter what the name of the app is....... Now onto why other apps won't work when the name is changed, well the problem there would be the checks made by the installer to see if anything was messed with, verification checks. That's not true on most google apps, but paid apps, well you may have an issue if you change the name. Just giving some clarification is all.

I don't know what you are talking about. Sorry, you make little sense, if any at all..
I'm confused at both people above
Any other suggestions?....
Again, S Voice works, as in it listens to me and searches for what I ask, but about 90 percent of the time she fails to talk back to me.
For example I'll say set alarm, maybe one in 10 times she will respond spoken, the other 9 times she stays quiet. The phone is not on mute, voice prompt is turned on.

The link was for an Epic 4G Touch, you're saying it will fix the voice issue on a Galaxy S3?
Yes, because what thats doing is changing your tts settings, these are universal, and not phone specific.

Those who have this working, are you running CM9 or the like, or are you actually getting this to function on Sense? I am curious before I dive in, because it says it only works on AOSP ROMs.

It installs on sense but is very laggy. Even restated my phone.

i'm currently on flex's rom so it works with sense
Open "Voice Search" = "Didn't catch that. Try speaking again." Typing works great!
Google Search Widget = Same as above.
Open "Voice Search for Google" = Works fantastic
does Google Now talk back to you when you speak in voice?
When I press the little voice icon in the top right hand corner, it just beeps twice

The .zip install is limited to AOSP. The .apks are not.

Camera GPS tags

Hey all, does anyone know what I have to edit to get the camera to always add GPS tags to the pictures I take?
I set the option in camera settings, but when I exit and reopen the camera, the option is ticked off. How can I make I persistent?
I'm using Dragon ICS 3.1 with CWM touch recovery.
Sent from my SGS3
Is there a third party camera app that can keep the GPS tag setting active and retain the speed of the stock camera app?

have you ensured you have your GPS on....but it really should prompt you if it isn't! If not then big Samsung fail!
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yes the GPS is enabled when I open the camera app, but the option to add the tag is always off, every time. I just installed Camera Zoom which has a persistent option.

I agree stock app seems to be much better and always forget and sometimes have no time to switch on GPS tagging. Even Tasker doesn't help.

Anyone use VuTalk?

I bought g2 the next day it came out, and did not know this vutalk feature existed until yesterday while playing around with both of my and my girlfriend's g2.
Now we doodle around with this thing whenever we get a chance and me like it ;p
But the sad thing is i dont have any other people on my contact list that i can vutalk with except my girlfriend...
Anyone use this at all?

To disable it (and you can do this without root) go into settings - general - apps - all and scroll all the way down to the bottom. You will find vutalk there. Press on it and disable it. And yes it will remain disabled even after reboot.

We are getting off-topic...but, i'll answer
Viber needs only a few KB/s (or MBs for calls) . Other apps need more ( i don't use and don't know about what's up)
It doesn't need an account. (for hangouts you need to have your friends gmail / fb needs ...fb accounts )
And you can do some funny staff. Draw/emoticons/sound clip
