Hi Community
I am new to xda, so please be not to rough with me
Today I tried to enter speech recognition with my new bluetooth headset MF-button. But it always opens the S Voice app. Is there any possibility to change the standard app for speech recognition to the google one?

You can disable the S voice on double tap
Open S voice then tap the menu button and in settings remove the tick from the Launch SVoice
There is a market app called Home Shortcut or something like that which allows you to select what you want the home button to do this may be what you want

Deinstalled S Voice now. But if I push the headset button on the headset it opens a window, that shows "initializing".
I also tried to replace the shortcut for double tapping the home button. Doesnt work. Still tries to open the S Voice. Even if it is uninstalled.
Maybe it is somewhere in the programing... so I have to edit the survey that starts S Voice if i double tap?!
Do you know how to do this?

Is there any way to remap the four bottom buttons on the Photon to different functions? In particular, I'd like to get rid of the way the long-press search button triggers voice command. (So if I can't remap the button, can I at least turn off voice command?)
Thanks in advance for any help!
Well -- not an answer yet, but I did figure out that you can freeze "Voice Command" and "Voice Search" via Titanium Backup, which will at least keep the prompt from popping up. Better than nothing, I guess.
Either download another app that utilizes the long press on search (like vlingo) to give you the menu of apps the next time you long press OR Menu - Settings - Applications - Manage Applications - tap on Voice Search - Clear defaults (or Clear Data) .
Do you mean that Vlingo always maps the search button long-press to an app menu, or just to set a default action? I did find that freezing voice command and voice search through Titanium Backup at least stopped the voice prompts from triggering...add benefit that it worked for Swype too.
The presence of any another voice-controlled app, like vlingo, makes the menu pop up.
Hi guys!
Is it possible to change hardware buttons behaviour?
For example, the double press of the home button calls vlingo, what if I want it to call Google Voice Actions?
Or, a long press of the home button pops-up the list of recently used application, what if I'd like it to open an other task manager I installed from market?
Thank you so much!!

I've had the S3 for a few days now and I prefer Google Voice Search to S-Voice. Is there anyway to replace the home button double press with GVS rather than S-Voice? If not is there a way to create a shortcut to automatically launch GVS? On my HTC Evo 4G there was a search button that would launch GVS if I pressed and held it. There doesn't seem to be that option for the S3. If I hold the menu button to the left of the home button then Google Search does come up but then I have to press the microphone to launch GVS. Is there a way to go directly to voice search?
Especially hope there is a way to launch GVS faster when jellybean is released. The videos seem to show the search is so much better than S-Voice.
Hold down the menu button.

Holding down the menu takes me to search screen and then I can choose voice search by clicking on the microphone. I guess I'm looking for a way to go to voice search in one step like I could on my Evo.
I would also really like to figure out how to do this! Nobody has figured it out yet.
Ideally, double click on home would directly open the Google Voice search.

Quickshortcutmaker works pretty good
I had the same problem. I used Quickshortcutmaker by sika524 ( available from the Play store) to make a shortcut to "voicesearch.....RecognitionActivity" . I then moved the shortcut to the Icon tray at the bottom of the home screen. That makes it 1 press and you are there. Unfortunately, that shorcut can't be added to the lockscreen, but still beats S-voice. I found this hint somewheres when I was wrestling with the same issue on a Evo LTE.
I discovered this method of replacing S-voice with Google Voice Search on another forum - credit to sorka of phandroid (not sure of proper protocol here - whether I should link to an external forum or provide the details here - feel free to let me know)
Anyway, this will allow replacing s-voice with google voice search
1) Install "Bluetooth Launch" from the play store.
2) Open Bluetooth Launch and select "Voice Search".
3) Expand it out and select "Recognition Activity"
4) Exit.
5) Double click the home button - or initiate call from bluetooth device
6) Choice of s-voice or Bluetooth Launch will be given
7) Select "Always complete using this activity" (optional)
8) Select Bluetooth Launch (for Google Voice Search)
Now whenever you double tap the home button (or activate from bluetooth device), Google Voice Search will run.
I didn't choose "Always complete using this activity" in order to test the two side by side. I ran into these problems:
1) if I hit "cancel" from inside of Google Voice Search, future pressing of the activate button on the bluetooth device (my car) didn't execute the program on the phone - I had to run s-voice to reactivate the prompt for some reason. Perhaps if I had chosen "Always complete..." it would have worked.
2) Google Voice Search didn't appear to use the car mic, just the phone mic. It appears s-voice is using the car mic. This is a challenge to verify, (covering up mics, etc.). I would like to hear other experiences.
In the end I went back to S-voice as it performed as well as Google Voice Search (neither great), but nice having the option to switch if I am frustrated with s-voice in the future.
this (Step 3) works great with JB leak

One way is to disable S Voice, but then you can't use S Voice anymore anywhere (until you enable it again).
Disable it in Settings -> Applications manager -> S Voice -> disable
Don't know if this has any affects to other apps (it warns you about it), but it works for me and haven't got FC's
With smackhome on play store you can choose which app you want to open with search button

That's exactly what I do. Using Nova Launcher, I have it set so that while at the Home screen, if I single-press the Home key, S-Voice comes up. If I double-press the Home key, Google Voice Search comes up.
This method allows me to have the best of both worlds because, arguably, S-Voice is better at controlling phone activities (e.g. "turn off Wi-Fi" or "text John Doe") whereas Google Voice Search is better at web searches (e.g. "What is the capitol of South Dakota?").
Similarly, in Settings > Language/Input, I have "Google" set as the Voice Recognizer. Question is...when I use S-Voice, is it properly using Google's servers for voice recognition, or is it going back to Vlingo (thus overriding the Language/Input settings)?
Hey everyone,
Does anyone know if its possible to change the the app shortcut that the soft touch search button launches? I would like it to to launch S-Voice or the google now mod that will be in the new Adrenaline ROM instead of the google search app.

Did you try long pressing it to set the default app to use for search. I have Vlingo Labs Beta installed and I long pressed the search button and was able to select it for the default action. It should see S-Voice if you have it installed.
And Ashton quit being a tool.
Yup, the Android system prompt should come up when a new app is installed that can utilize that button. Several custom ROMs have tweak settings that can configure the softkeys, though they usually map them to particular system menus and functions rather than apps.
I've been using the HomeSmack app lately to switch both the Search button function and my launcher on the fly. I suggest checking that out:

Grab Home2Shortcut from the market, I have it set to open Google Now "Voice Search" but it can be set to open any app with a double press on the 'home' button. And cuts out the annoying Google Voice Dialer :highfive:
