Hi Guys,
I posted this on the CM10.1 thread, but it quickly got hidden by all the other questions on the thread. I hope its ok for me to ask here in the Q&A board...
Is anyone else having issues with the satnav app Waze on their i9300 with CM10.1? For me it works fine except for the voices. The voice will be fine for part of the voice prompt, but then clip or cut out toward the end of her sentance. For example a typical voice prompt would be "at the next roundabout, take the second exit on to High Street". But on my device her voice clips out half way through, so I hear "at the next roundabout, take the ...it on to High Street".
I can still use the software to get around but looking at the screen map, but it is annoying. Anyone know what this issue might be caused by?
Thanks.
Did you manage to get this issue fixed i'm having the same issue. I have located the thread below have you tried it at all?

Hi Community,
Let me jump right in! I recently purchased a backbeat 903+ since i was nearly in an accident fiddling with my phone while driving. And i have quickly learned to do some of the basic features such as calling etc.
I had a small hickup at the start when none of the headset buttons would do anything. I am synced and connected in bluetooth, but realized i never downloaded Nuance as an extra from the blackhole roms page. I am currently running Blackhole 4.3 (whatever the newest one is as of today).
Ok on to my question. I can get Nuance to bring up the text message screen, but i can not figure out how to make it type. I have tried just about everything i can think of. I searched all over youtube and found a video of some guy doing it, but when i try the same thing it doesnt type what i dictate or even ask me to speak.
So any advice is welcome, and i want to thank every one for your time reading, and answering in advance.
Just an update i downloaded the flext9 which someone suggested. It has the voice feature but im trying to keep it hands free. Right now my Call/ Action button on my 903+ does not begin voice recognition once in the text message. so i have to pull out my phone, press the voice button then talk and then hit send.
I found a program called voice actions that allowed me to do what i needed, but i cant figure out a way to bind it to my BT Call/Action button, everytime i press it nuance comes up.
Thanks again for any help!
I've been using Google Voice Search since day on my original Droid with slide out keyboard, but today it's no longer voice-to-text'ing my punctuations. It's actually spelling out each punctuation into words, and this extremely annoying considering how dependent I have become with Google Voice Search's Voice Actions.
I sell phones and demonstrate, always driving around to different locations, always have hands tied... Please help me figure out why it's all of a sudden not punctuating..!
I'm rooted on stock. Voice Search has been cleared, force stopped, installed updates, reinstalled updates.
Swype's keyboard microphone does punctuations and smiley faces perfect.
Any help in this matter is greatly appreciated.

Would anyone know why I cannot type punctuations with my voice with google voice search anymore?

I just did a Google search for my issue, and I found my own thread just after one day of posting. It's the first result, too. That's sweet.
I'm extremely glad it's not just me! It happened to me just a couple of days ago, too. I was out of town on business, so I couldn't trouble shoot on other Androids. I'm at my girl's house now. I picked up her Droid Incredible 2 while posting this, and I held down the search button:
Send Text to NAME smiley face
It spelled out smiley face instead of making one. This appears to be Google. I'll be checking on other Android devices tomorrow. I'm very glad it's not my Razr.

Anyone else having this issue? -_-
Same Problem Here
It is definitely google, sorry if I'm posting in the wrong forum but I'm on rooted HTC Evo 4g and just noticed the other day, when I use voice search it will spell out my punctuation. Example "Hello comma are you going to the party tonight question mark" rather than "Hello, are you going to the party tonight?" as it did before.
Ironically enough, it only does this when I actually use the voice search comment and say "Send text to" etc.
If I already open up a text and press the little microphone it will still dictate punctuation.
Same Issue - but speech to punctuation works in other apps
Same problem here. It just started happening to me a couple days ago and extremely annoying. I can't believe how dependent I am on voice search - I use it all the time. I tried deleting and reinstalling voice search, as well as changing the settings for google services voice recognition, but neither had any affect.
What's really strange is that the voice to punctuation works in other apps like texting or email apps, which also use voice search for the speech to text conversion. It just doesn't work from the "voice search" application.
Strange....
Same issue here, rooted Samsung Epic 4G with CM9. I have a feeling it's some weird issue with Google's servers or something...
Yep, happening to me too.
I have been tweaking without my Google Voice Search texting. It makes the "Send Text To:" command utterly useless.

Same problem here... I thought it was because I moved it into the system directory. Moved it out, and still same problem. Now that I see I'm not the only one, I'm moving it back...
Can anyone suggest an alternative for e-mailing? I tried Vlingo, which handles punctuation correctly, but doesn't do as good of a job looking up contacts.
I thought it was because I switched from my HTC Vivid to my Galaxy Note... I guess it is not just that Samsung sucks.. lol ... I hope this issue gets resolved sooner than later..
I just posted a question about this and a link to this thread on Reddit.
Same problem here.
I flashed an ICS ROM to my EVO3D and still have the same issue. Plus there's no mic icon in the pop-up text window.
Add one more to the list ... HTC Sensation running ARHD 6.6.3. Surely this isn't a new "feature" from Google ....
Thank you to everyone who has replied and stated they're having issues.
Maybe we can get a moderator to move this thread into the right area? Especially considering we have this issue across multiple devices?
Who can help me create a Google support thread? I've been wanting to contact Google about this issue.
It's fixed! Stupendous! Back to good old trusty Google Voice!
We all do (have this problem atm. I am on Stock Android JB @N7000). All I could find is this. http://support.google.com/android/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=1715292
Check this: http://forum.swype.com/showthread.p...n-Google-Voice-vs-Dragon-on-Swype-for-Android
And that their voice products are amazing. For the first time, I am considering having read back books to me on the go or when preparing lunch - Google's TTS is THAT GOOD!
Bump.
I might start a new thread, but I'm starting here first to see if anyone is monitoring this thread.
The Google Now Voice to Text feature for "Send Text" is working again, but it now has a new issue. Punctuation and Smiley Faces are not recognized at the end of the last sentence of Google Now/Voice Search's "Text" Voice Command.
For example:
" text Bonnie i miss you exclamation point smile face "
Normally yields a text to Bonnie:
" I miss you! "
However, it now does this text:
" i miss you "
It actually continues to type the correct punctuation and smileys while dictating in the Search bar, but it does not carry them over to the text message. Anything at the end of a sentence is now completely lost. Vanishes. And annoying.
Prior to recently, it would not carry over punctuation at the end of sentences; but it would work fine if I added a smiley face to the end of my texts. So.. For a while, a vast majority of my texts to people ended with a smiley face. LoL. Just to get the question mark or exclamation point to show up correctly at the end of my texts. However, my smiley face band aid does not work anymore.
Anyone having similar issues?
Hi, Wizards:
I have a Galaxy Tab GT-P1000 running Overcome 3.3.1. On occasion, when all else seems quiet, the device will suddenly decide to play the /system/media/audio/notifications/12_Tweeters.ogg sound file (sounds something like a bird chirp), and I would like to find the application that causes this sound file to be played. I ran the Log Collector app (v1.1.0) and poured through its output, and that is how I determined which file is being played,
In the latest instance, the log shows:
09-06 08:40:24.230 I/MediaPlayer( 306): The actual path is:/system/media/audio/notifications/12_Tweeters.ogg.
Before that, I can see references to (306) like "KeyguardViewMediator" in the same second. In fact, there are hundreds of references to 306 within parentheses in the log, mostly involving Sensors and PowerManagerService BatteryService. But I don't see a way to trace back to the originator. (Frankly, I also don't have any indication that the '306' is important.)
How would I go about finding the reason that MediaPlayer was kicked off in the first place? (My goal is to find the application that suddenly decides to play this sound file, and to understand why it does so. After all, I'm being notified of something, right? Wouldn't it be swell to understand the reason for the notification, instead of just "Hey!" ?)
I've searched for general information on how to figure out what the Log is trying to tell me, but to no avail for something like this. Is there enough information in the typical Log Collector output to determine this information? If so, where can I read up on how to trace this? If not, then what might I do to trap/identify this?
I appreciate any pointers you may have on this.

Log Collector should give you enough information to solve the problem. I suppose one simple and quick solution you could try is go into /system/media/audio/notifications/12_Tweeters.ogg and just delete the file. If you delete the file, then when it wants to play that sound it won't be able to because it doesn't exist, and then it shouldn't bother you anymore.

That's encouraging. Sorry I wasn't clear. Where might I find out how to read the log in such a way?

Hmmm... to me, that sounds like "If the fire alarm bothers you, just remove the battery." I do appreciate your reply, but that doesn't that sound to me like a good idea since I don't know the cause... I do welcome advice regarding figuring out that cause.
I had a problem with audios starting to play randomly. Googling led to many possible causes.
The only one I remember is the fix that worked for me - simply installing and running once a program available free from the market called DisableAutoPlay.
It disables the feature where plugging headphones in causes auto-playing. Mind you I wasn't doing anything with headphones when my music started randomly, but apparently there can be some intermittent hardware malfunction that makes the phone think you are plugging headphones in (perhaps limited to Samsung phones like mine IIRC... I have an Infuse).

Thanks. I will keep that in mind if the time comes that I need to take such action.
I'm sorry I'm apparently expressing my intent so poorly. My goal, to be clear, is to find out WHY the alarm is sounding, not to prevent it. (I reserve the right to want to prevent it in the future, but right now the point remains.)
I will try to track down the author(s) of Log Collector and see where that leads me. If I find out anything useful, I will post back here.

Id also look into using logcat to try and solve your problem take a look at this guide to reading and writing logcat files.

Hi all,
I have 4.0.3 rooted, and starting fairly recently, when I do a voice search a top result is spoken to me as if I had Google Now (which I don't). The problem is, I don't want it to speak results to me because if I'm in the office I don't need it speaking - even innocuous things like "The phone number for Motor Vehicle Services is...." are distracting to others.
Do you know how to turn this off? I wonder if it's something Google is doing on their end, but just in case I posted here in the Rezound forum. Thanks!
apologies for cluttering the place up previously.
To the question:
I bought a used TF201 and it's at 4.4.4 CROMB1 is 11.0-20140930. Kernel is 3.1.10
Best way I can describe the issue is that the screen is flaky. That is, when I attempt, for example, to move an icon from one spot to another it 'dances'. It's difficult to control the position of the icon. Rebooting resolves for a few minutes.
The issue manifests itself in 'settings' also when I scroll up and down on the left side to select something.
Anyone seen this or heard of it? No joy in my search for info on here.
Many thanks up front folks,
Jim
