Any way to get Voice-to-Text like from the Galaxy Nexus? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Had the LTE for less than 24 hours and I really like it! I assumed the voice to text (like in the messaging or email applications) would be the same across the board with all ICS devices, but the voice to text feature is the same as basically any old Android phone I've had. The voice-to-text capability of the Galaxy Nexus is superior. I'm wondering if there will end up being any way to get it like this, or if you think there may be some future roms that will include this feature? Thanks!

Voice to text in this phone is the same engine as used in the galaxy nexus. the only thing different is the keyboard. In fact, I wrote this using voice to text.

What keyboard are you using? I noticed that if I switch to Swype, and click the mic button, the voice to text is more like the Gingerbread version. You can always select ICS Google voice to text from the notification bar though, even if you are not on the stock keyboard.

Oh you guys are life savers! I had swype activated and that is what I was talking about!!! Could you explain to me how to select the ICS google voice to text from the notification bar? I would like to keep the swype keyboard active, but use the ICS voice to text. Thanks so much!

When you click in any text box, you should notice a little keyboard option in the notification menu up to, to the right. Pull down the curtain and click on that, you'll get the option to choose google voice.
Tried to attach pic, but don't think the app is working with me.

Both keyboards have a voice option - it's a little icon like a microphone, usually at the bottom...

I noticed when using it this way with a third party keyboard that the first time you pull down and switch to google voice dictation it works. then when you try to use it that way again you get a message that says audio problem...could be the Rom I'm on so let me know..I tried to use it this way with swift key.

Its an engine, it receives your speech, goes to google and processes quickly...if..you have a reliable connection..which it doesnt seem to be the case with your screen shot from what I see anyway..
Hope that helps

I'm on wifi this is not a connection issue. I can use the stock keyboard anytime through out the day and it works fine. If I switch to a 3rd party keyboard and use the pull down menu to quickly use voice dictation it will give an audio problem message right after using it once. It's not a connection issue, may be a Rom issue but I'm not sure yet until I get some people giving me their experiences.

It is default.
Using the stock TouchWiz, add the stock Messages app to your homescreen. When you receive a text you'll get a little red badge with the number of notifications on the top right corner. Same with email and several other stock apps I think.

Ah fair enough, never stayed with touchwhiz long enough to find out
This was driving me crazy as using go sms instead of the messaging app meant I would always have badge notifications on the unused app, could only find an option to turn notifications off altogether rather than just badges.

Seeing as this is a Galaxy S2 forum, no one here can definitively point you in the right direction. Use Root explorer and search for it. If it doesn't show up, it's likely called something else as you're using an Xperia.

[Q] Drop Down Toggles

Does anyone know if it will be possible to have toggles for wifi/bt/gps/silent/data in the notification drop down like other phones have?
You can download Widgetsoid and when you make a Widget it will give you the option of adding it to the notification bar.
When it's there, though, and you click on something it will open a new little popup window to press the buttons..kinda weird, dunno why it does that.

This prevents notification bar widgets from directly controlling phone functions then? So it's safe to assume Extended Controls would do the same?

i don't think that does what the OP wants, which is toggles within the notification bar (ala Samsung phones).
as far as i've seen, we can only have the clickable pop-up widget version that was described above.

Yeah I guess I was spoiled with my samsung (before this thread I was not aware this was a samsung only feature). I really miss this feature... wish it came standard on all androids. The closest one to what I want is notification toggle, but it's still more clicks to what I want.
widgetsoid is closet that I can get,I too hate how we have to do at least two clicks instead of one like on CM7. But at least it's close and looks clean

Yea it kinda sucks. You still have to use the widget, so the drop down notification is useless. In my opinion. I had a infuse 4g for 1 day and that was the only feature I liked on the phone..

[Need Testers] BT Voice Search

First things first, I am not a miracle worker. This does not magically make voice search get audio from your BT headset. Google needs to fix that poorly thought out detail as far as I can tell.
What it does: It provides a dirt-simple way to start the Voice Search app from your BT headset rather than the nearly-useless Voice Dialer app.
How to use it:
Sideload the little .apk
HAVE VOICE SEARCH INSTALLED
Do what you normally do to start the Voice Dialer with your headset
Choose to run VoiceSearchIntercept by default
Try it after locking your display to make sure it still works
Post your results
Thanks guys. It works fine on my phone!

Would like to try but I can't find a way to have my bluetooth device (venturi mini) launching voice command
Does someone know a way to assign a specific action to bluetooth device buttons?
If you were to provide a logcat while pressing some button with that bluetooth device I might be able to work something out for it. Are you sure it doesn't work if you say, hold down the call button or something for 2-3 seconds?
There are apps on the marketplace that let you do things with your buttons, but I didn't find the ones I tried particularly helpful. That's why I made this one
I'll check it out later. my Bluetooth is charging.
I have a Bluetooth headset, LG Tone, that I'd be interested to see if it worked with your app.

It should, but let me know either way!
so this worked fine for me last night. I paired my Bluetooth earphones, pressed/held the call button, and it popped up your apk that I had installed. from there it automatically launched Google voice search.
although I think my mic sucks because it would never accurately do what I told it to.
but yeah.
Awesome
I can't believe I didn't comment on here last time.
I was trying to do this with my Droid Incredible and your little app is the only thing I ever found that fixed it. Now I have a Razr Maxx and have found it's still using the default voice command and I scoured the internet until I found this post again.
Thanks again, for making this. It's absolutely what I was looking for!!
Glad to hear other people are still using this! Maybe I'll make an icon and put it on the Market...

oh, you should. thought it was already on there. I just used your apk from up top.
I am using a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with a Jawbone ERA bluetooth headset trying to get Voice Command to launch instead of the default Voice Dialer.
I tried Bluetooth launcher, I explored using Tasker automate what your app does, but looked like it would take some effort plus purchase of Tasker from the Play Market.
Your app works like a charm each time after I selected it as the default.
You should definitely put it up on the Market with the description of launching Google Voice Search with the Bluetooth Multi-function button so more people can find it easily.

Access Notifications While Browsing?

When I'm using the web browser, I can't access the notification pull down. So if texts or other things come in, I have to go to the home screen, pull down and then look at the notification. Am I missing something? Is there a setting? I would like to have the notification bar show up when the address bar does I think.
Use chrome..
Sent from my EVO 4G LTE
this is a HUGE problem for me too. I've asked a couple times in different browser threads and no one likes to ask this. the only answer I've ever seen is just like this,a quick snappy "use this awesome browser instead" and I otherwise like the stock browser best. but seriously, this royally pisses me off too. anyone with a solution, please speak up
is there a way to install sense 3.0 browser on this phone from an evo 3d? I like the new browser in every way except the status bar thing mentioned here, and the loss of the omni-awesome-bar the old one had. is it just one system apk to install over, or is it more complicated than that?
...because, I've noticed other things I've tried, like the flashlight from the 3d, don't match the screen resolution and the button is not where you must press on screen to work it. would browser have this same problem? and, is it just one apk or more integrated with the system than that?
thank you,
With the E3D you have to tap the capacitive menu button while in some browsers to make the notifications bar reappear. Maybe try tapping the recent apps button?
doesn't work. even the recent app button won't let you get to the status bar. literally must go back to home screen, or switch to an app that shows the status bar. either way, the browser page reloads, which sucks if you are composing something or on YouTube
one work around is by clicking the refresh button ^_^
If you scroll to the top of the browser, options come up at the bottom of the screen (add, bookmarks, saved, tabs) If you hit tabs, the notification bar comes down and you can resume the page your viewing without refreshing

I'm having the same issue. My friend says his notification bar is pretty much permanent and if it doesn't appear, all he does is scroll to the top of the webpage and it appears. For those of us that are having problems, I think the most efficient option is to use the "refresh" workaround!

To get to the notification bar from the stock browser, just press and hold anywhere on the screen and the bar should appear.

Simplest way I've found is to flick the screen just a bit, as if you are going to scroll up or down, which makes the browser address/menu-bars appear. If you select 'Tabs' on the lower-right, you not only see your tabs but the notification bar also appears.

Ah, I'm sorry I didn't think of that.
I believe it relies on the sms app you use.
Try an alternative like handcent or gosms.
Or maybe you could get the app from another version of the phone, one of the Canadian or global variants.
Not sure if they would have the option, but they might.

Delivery reports
Hi there,
The stock at&t messaging app is able to request delivery reports. Only, for some reason, this option gets lost sometimes, along with the notification led blinking for missed calls or sms. The solution that worked for me might help you as well, if you are rooted- If you have a system app. Remover or another app that makes it possible to get rid of system apps preinstalled in the phone. Each such application should have the option to back up every system app before uninstall. So, you backup your messaging app. - called lgmsg3.apk (or something like that I might not remember it precisely), then you uninstall it, reboot your device, and through the very same app. - system app remover, you hit restore app and choose the messaging application. It asks you whether it is a system app, you hit yes and here you go delivery reports (under settings, text messages) as well as led blinking for missed events are back!
Hi:
I just did what you said... no it does not work. The version of the software you use is 3.2.31??? The one I have is that and no... it does not work.
I appreciate your help on this if you have any new tip on this.
