I'm having the same issue on stock / rooted 4.1.2 on my razr maxx.
This happened after I applied the update to google search.
I reverted to the previous version and it works again, so it's something to do with the latest update. I've read that it works on some phones, so it may have something to do with the latest update in conjunction with certain phones. wouldn't be the first time motorola phones didn't work like everyone else's!

[Q] Where is voice talk?

Hello,
I just purchased a Galaxy S II, model SHW-M250S. However, I do not think it came with the voice talk software. Does anyone know why that would be? Any way to add it to the phone (other than vlingo from the app store) I have been trying to figure it out online for a little bit now so I am posing the question to those with a lot more knowledge about phones than myself. Thank you.
You mean a voice command application? Vlingo is the closest you can get right now.
Yes voice commands. I thought the GS2 came with a "voice talk" application preloaded. In videos I have seen users just click applications and it is right but my phone lacks this.
There are three, voice talk, voice command, and voice search. Not sure what are the difference among them as they all seem to do more or less the same thing.

Hmm, well I have the voice search but it just searches google. It won't open apps or let me dictate messages or anything.
You are right, I got them confused, voice search does google, but the other two more or less do the same thing. They should all be in your app drawer.
I don't think they are I wonder how it got left off the phone? Kinda disappointing. Too expensive of a phone to be missing stuff imo.
I have been searching high and low for an APK that has those, but I have not come up with anything so far... lost it when I flashed a complete WIPE custom rom... I'll be ever so thankful if anybody uploads or directs me to said APK...

google now is not working as well at should be

Hi,
I took a look at a video about Google Now where someone was using a lot of different command to get info from wikipedia, or to do things on the phone like setting up allarms, play music, turn off wifi, etc. I am wondering why if I am using latest version for CM10 from epinter, it doesn't have all the recognition this video has.
Everything I said even though it is well recognized by Google Now the only thing it does is a google search.
Any idea?

I tried that but it wasn't enough, I had to change the entire Android language to English, otherwise it was just searching was I was saying.
I still couldn't make it work on Spanish, even setting everything to spanish it only searches what I say, no stuff integration like wikipedia, or text mesages, or reminders or any other feature.
There are a couple of things you need to have straight.
For one, this isn't a fully-functional rom since the real thing doesn't even exist for this phone. Of course features are going to be incomplete. That video is a horrible tool for comparison. That said, not all features in that video are supported. Alarms,traffic, and basic searches? Yes. Other stuff? Not really.
Also, I believe there was a bit in the epinter thread that mentioned how it would only work in English for right now.
Google Now on Atrix is as good as it is on my Nexus 7.

That's weird. I definitely don't have all functionality as shown in other devices running JB.
I've noticed a few issues. I'm using the same Rom. Google Now doesn't work as well on my Atrix as it does on my TF300 that was OTA updated to JB. But that's to be expected. The rom is in Alpha stage still I believe, not everything is prefect yet. The only issues I find though is that it wont talk back to you answers. Like if you ask for simple tasked that it normally would speak the answer as well as show you. I only get the google search results and the cards.

06/25 Google Now Update hacking

Hey, I'm messing around with the settings here.
As you might know, Google released an update for Google Now. It now allows the use of "OK Google anywhere" and is always listening while charging, pretty much like Moto X! Yay
But it seems that not everybody is getting it, mostly folks outside U.S., and the Moto X is having a hard time to make it run.
As I always mod the Google Now to work on my mother language, I did a brief comparison between both new and old "StartupSettings.bin" and found a couple of new guys, but two caught my eye:
Code:
hotword_blacklisted_devices>XT1049,XT1050,XT1052,XT1053,XT1055,XT1056,XT1058,XT1060,XT912A
Those are all Moto X versions
and:
Code:
!relationships_peopleapi_http_path4https://www.googleapis.com/plus/v2whitelisted/people
which might be the "VIP" list to see if the user is eligible for the new feature.
Some guy from AndroidPolice assured that he could get the feature for a single-use only, if he logged out of Google Now, logged in and tried the feature out. After the first use, the feature would be removed, and all he'd get is the typical "OK Google" from the home screen.
What do you guys think? I'll try to set the whitelist to localhost here to see what happens.

Holy crap dude, it worked.
I modded Google Now to work with my Mother Language, pt-BR. I'll have a look to see if I make it able to work on pt-BR too. Every text and instructions are correct in this language, so it must only be a simple think.
Thank you!
------------------
Damn. It presents me the option to record my voice three times for later recognition, but it crashes just at the end.
So close..
------------------
So stupid! There's no need for this anymore. It has "two languages" now. I set the primary as English and the secondary as Portuguese (Brasil).
Works flawless! This is awesome. Thanks

[Q] LG G Watch : Poor voice search

The voice search is such a downer! it hardly works right with any of the calendar related stuff. Even one of the built in suggestions "Agenda for today" does not work when you speak it. Anyone else seeing this? My phone is a nexus 5 running latest kit kat.
In fairness it looks like google now even on my phone does not do any of this well!

Google-Now Change the keyword Ok Google

So this morning I said OKAY GOOGLE CALL XYZ ON LANDLINE - and two phones started dialing. Obviously there is no way to avoid this.
Any dev out there who could try a hack that allows to define personal keywords? Or is there someone from Google who reads this and helps?
I imagine that in the not so far future you can say OKAY GOOGLE in a MacDos and 20 phones will reply.
Thanx in advance.
Reviving a 4 year old post. ?
Is there an answer here?
Had the ability to customize the keyword with my Droid Turbo in 2014 and LOVED it.
Open Mic+ looks like it used to do it? I DL'd tm3 versions of it. One didn't work, one wouldn't even complete DL'ing, & the 3rd had a not from developer saying he promised Google he would disable it?
Developer mentioned something called Commandr but it doesn't seem to do anything.
DL'd the old Moto app and it wouldn't launch.
Anyone know how to customized the OK Google command?
