Hi all,
This works well for me apart from one thing.
I have assigned the voicedial to my 'record' button.
However, every time i hit the button it first goes to the 'voices and parameters' screen which I have to OK before proceeding to dial. This is obviously very annoying. Do others get this or have I missed a setting option somehwere? I am using the 'Recorded Voice' voice.

OK - have found that using ANY other voice apart from the 'Recorded Voice' option works fine and I don't get the first screen - weird!
R
I get an error every time it tries to update the voice tags, cant fix it either.
Is there anyway to have Voice COMMAND instead of Voice Talk be activated when longpressing search or pressing my headset button? Voice Command has so many more commands than the other one, and I find it simpler. I tried clearing defaults and reassigning, but the only two options that show up then when trying to reassign are Voice Search and Voice Talk. =[
Thanks!
Bump? Anyone?
Why do you think there is any difference in the available commands? I don't think there is.
Because there is. See for yourself.
Try setting, say, an alarm in Voice Talk - won't work. Go through the help pages, there's far less commands listed in Talk than in Command.

That's right. In Voice Command I counted 14 commands and in Voice talk I counted eight. For example, just try going to Voice Talk and say "email" someone or "open" some application. It won't work. Try the same commands in Voice Command and it works!
Ok. I'll be damned. Now I want to open voice command too
Here's what's funny. You can open voice command from voice talk by pushing the menu button in voice talk, but you can't use your voice to open it.
Sheesh.
Samsung epic 4g touch 2 it's possible
goto the android market and download, " bt app launcher". it is a bluetooth launcher for when your headset connect to your cell phone. the app is free. once installed it allows you to select the app that you want to start when the bluetooth device connects to your cell phone. you will see 2 voice commands 1 will be green and 1 will be blue with a line through it. select the blue 1 with the line running through it horizontally. now whenever your bluetooth headset connect your cellphone voice command will start not voice talk. unfortunately whenever press the button on your bluetooth headset or press to lunch button from your phone... voice talk will still launch . I happen to have a motorola bluetooth headset that allows the flip of the microphone which then turns on the bluetooth device connects to the cellphone, so this works for me.

I agree 100 percent. I posted here ,ATT fourm and android Central and go no reply. I asked my friend at aTT to check it out with Samsung. Knownone at aTT had a idea. I don't know why they just did not use Voice Command. You say comands on you bluetooth and you get Voice talk. (say Galaxy) voice tlak only works with bluetooth by default no matter what your setting are.( Blueant Q2 here.) Voice command does email and more but you have to lauch it yourself.
My other phone you just pushed the extra button on the side and say what you wanted. Both of these programs are Vlingo rograms too.
I will download the BT appy though
download bt
I don't think its going to work.
This is exactly why i shouldn't read the forums, now I want Voice Command to be my default DOH!
I was wondering if this was possible as well. Maybe someone could find where the double home tap action is mapped to.
voice command
there is a nice little widget that has voice command, voice talk and driving mode
buttons that's included with the galaxy S2.
I have a A2dp Motorolla BT, It will start voice "command" when blue tooth head set connects to cell . But not when pressing the button on the blue tooth head set or the phone . and it will automatically listens. it does not have the standby activation code hi galaxy like voice " Talk"
Thanks for the idea, I added it to my ROM.
I had the same problem and made a workaround with Tasker.
If you have Tasker installed:
1. Make a new profile called "Long Search" and select
Event>Hardware>Button:Long Search
as the context.
2. For the task, make a new task and select the action category "App" and select "Load App" and then "Voice Command".
3. Then when you long press the search button (assuming you cleared your default or never picked one), a tasker helper will show up as an option along with "Voice Talk" and google's voice search. Select it as your default.
Now when you long press the seach button "Voice Command" will launch.
Hope this helps.
This works exactly as advertised. Thanks for posting this, and now I've got to figure out Tasker!

Anybody else having issues with Google Now's voice feature since today? When I tap the mic button and start speaking, my phone doesn't seem to register that I've said something into the mic.
The ring around the mic icon pulsates as I speak, so it seems like it hears what I'm saying, but nothing happens after that. No confirmation "tone" to register I've said something. It just asks me to tap the mic and speak again.
I know it's not an issue with my mic, as I've made 3-4 calls with no issues today too.
Anyone else experience this? Any help appreciated
***SOLVED***
Never mind all sorted. Uninstalled then reinstalled the latest update and all is good now
Prior to the latest update to Google Search 3.5.16.1262550 a couple weeks ago, I used to be able to do a long press on my BT headset to bring up Google Now, which let me say, "Call Joe Blow home" and it would make the call to his home number. Now it brings up Google Dial which tells me to say "Call someone" but pops up with a numbered list of the cell, home, and work numbers on the screen that I either have to touch to choose the one I want, or say, "Select Two" to dial his home number. This requires that I either touch or look at the screen to make a call, which totally defeats the purpose of "hands-free" calling.
I have switched back to S-Voice for now, which I hate because she talks too much before I can actually make a call, but at least I don't have to dig my phone out to push or see which phone I want to call. I hope someone can help us get back to BT dialing the way it used to be.
This is on a Sprint Galaxy Note 3 running KitKat, but I imagine this is affecting all phones.
Yes I have a note 3 kitkat and Google search issue is affecting my phone as well. Instead of Google now voice prompt when pressing headset hard button on my LG bluetooth headset....Goople dial is not default which sucks!
Bump! Surely someone must use Bluetooth dialing from a headset and noticed this major change besides the two of us. Please help if you have any ideas to revert Google Search to work the way it used to.
Bump again! Doesn't anyone else use their Bluetooth headset to initiate calls?
I think I have finally found an acceptable workaround using Bluetooth Launch from the Play Store. Install the app and follow the directions as described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2794883
Step one shouldn't be needed as when you long press, it will detect the new app and let you select Bluetooth Launch as the default.
Hello everyone,
So, when I use Verizon's voice mail app and play back a message the screen goes black and I can not wake it back up. Double tap does not work, power button does not work until the complete message has played. That can get really old if you have a 3 minute message of silence. Anyway I was wondering if any of you ran into this and had a way to fix it. or a better voice mail app.
I think this might have some conflict with Android Wear, but I'm not sure.
Thanks!
