I am trying to find a solution this this issue that has popped up on tow ROMs that I really like.
On most ROMs when I hit the ear piece to dial out the standard voice dialer app box shows up and asks me what I want to do but on a couple of the ROMs I get a Google box with a red circle asking me to speak now. The issue with that is that it can recognize my voice if I tell it to dial a number but not names from my phonebook. I have to use the voice dialer widget on my home screen to activate standard voice dialer. Anyone know how to disable the Google dialer? Anyone else have this issue? Right now I am using Nocturnals_Xi36*ICS*Sense. Thank you.

Weird problem. When I get a call, I press to answer the call on my headset then it immediately goes to a female voice that says unknown caller press 1 to answer or 2 to send to voicemail.
Defeats the purpose of Bluetooth if I have to pull the phone out to answer.
Anyone else have this issue?
I called sprint and they said it was htc issue then transferred me to htc and they couldn't figure it out.
I am using a blue ant t1 device.
Thanks!
That would be happening because you synced with Google Voice. Google Voice is intercepting your call and is causing the additional requirement. I think that can be changed in your Google Voice settings if you log in to the actual web app, not the app on the phone. I had the same problem. It was intercepting voice and text. Haven't changed it to use just Google Voice for Voicemail yet.
Bingo!
Sprint couldn't answer...blamed on HTC...HTC couldn't answer said would get back to me in 5 business days...
Come here and BAM!
This site rocks...
Thanks again Skepticalmystic for your help!
It seems that voice typing in SMS only works when I am on WiFi. If I have full signal 4G, I can go to an SMS and try to voice type and nothing happens. The Mic just appears with a dotted line around it and it just sits there. Just in case, I downloaded the language pack to allow offline voice recognition.
How can I fix this?
BTW, I am on MIUI, but it didn't work on CNA either.
Thanks!
Hi everyone:
I have google voice setup as the voicemail box, no problem
I however, use GV for international calls from the United States and I cannot for the life of me get it to work.
Regardless of the settings I use in GV for making calls:
Use GV to make all calls, do not use gv, only for international or ask everytime I call.
When I go to the dialer to make my call...I dial the number, hit the dial button, then nothing happens. The dialer is still open, hitting back does nothing, hitting setting does nothing. I can still hit the numbers and the numbers will show up, but doesn't look through history or contacts.
It seems like GV is just not intercepting the calls out or doesn't launch. I've tried reinstalling GV, tried reverting back to an older version. No dice.
Has anyone seen a problem with this or have a work around?
Regards,
MWC
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.
I've had this issue for a long time now, I can't figure out why this is happening, when someone dials my google number, both the dialer applications ring, the google dialer and hangouts dialer.
Under Handgouts Dialer i do have "Incoming phone calls" checked, I also see both my numbers listed under confirmed phone numbers.
Any ideas? I can't find anything about this anywhere.

You wrote that you have the "incoming phone calls" box checked in Hangouts but are complaining that it's ringing through Hangouts… Is that what you meant to write?
What's the end result you're looking for?
If you don't want your phone to ring when someone calls your GV number (i.e., as a forwarded call) you should still be able to turn it off in the GV settings on a desktop browser. I'm still new to the board, so I can't post links yet. google/com/voice/#phones
Hope that helps.
Yea, i didn't want my google phone number to ring my android dialer, i went to https://www.google.com/voice/#phones and found the option to forward calls to, and my telecom number was listed there to forward to, i turned it off and it fixed the problem.
Thank! - This fixed it!.
