Does someone know if there is an app where it is possible to assign name read by user to a person in contact list, and then when you activate voice dial your pronaunciation is recognized and propper person is dialed? Not one voice dial app works with my language because pronauncitions are very different from english. Not to mention nicknames. Thanks!

Theres a few things i want to know about voice command?
such as: how do you use it to call someone or do commands.
how do you use it to have go from text to speech
and is there a program to do speech to text
No program (at least through MS Voice Command) to do speech to text. You can have it annouce who is calling or even read your E-mail headers to you. It is fairly easy to place a call. You can say "call (name of contact to call) at (home, work, mobile) You can even tell it to call (say full number area code first. It can be used to open programs as well. You can say What is my next appointment and it will tell you the next calendar contact.

I am looking for an app that would enable me to dial contacts or do actions on my Android phone by voice. The standard Android voice recognition is unacceptable because I am not from an English speaking country.
My old phone had this feature where I could record a "voice command" for any of my contacts and only those would be considered when voice dialing. This also enabled for much more variance in speaking so I suppose it would be helpful for English speaking users too.
Is there any app that would provide this functionality? Or is somebody working on one?
I am in a similar situation, a number of my family have non-English names and Android cannot recognise them. I've looked everywhere and cannot find one either. Everyone seems to rely on voice recognition which is, frankly, crap for anything remotely non-standard in language.
You can use Voice Speed Dial by Cyberon Corp, it's very good
.
Moved to Q&A
it will be great if such an app exists.
let me now if you find one
is there a development/process/information about this thread?
To make the Android voice recognition work, go to Settings>Voice Input & Output>Language>English (US). You'll be able to use all the voice commands. I don't know how well voice dialing will work for you though. It works for me many times with Indian names, but also fails a lot. Try Vlingo too, it might work better.

Does anyone know of an app that can speak the name of the caller that actually works on the atrix?
I have tried "voice caller id" but it doesn't work.
That option is built into the Atrix!!
Settings> Call> Caller ID readout.
I like Grace from SVOX, I dumped Pico for her.
Oops. Just tested and it works. But why does it speak the name of the contact in both spanish and english? I would like spanish only and to customize the prefix that gets spoken before the contact

Uhm, mine only speaks English. I would turn my phone off if it spoke Spanish to me. Sorry I cant help you there.
Maybe it's because i have morelocale 2 installed and customized my locale to English (Venezuela) (en_VE). I did this because on english the dialer stores numbers as xxx-xxx-xxxx while on my country numbers are xxxx-xxx-xxxx
Settings>voice input & output>text-to-speech settings
Have you you played with those settings to try and make it work?
yup, it's funny to hear "incoming call from xxxx" in a spanish robotic voice and then hearing the same in the english robotic voice.
i will try removing my custom locale. it's too bad you can't configure anything regarding the readout.
on voice caller id, you can configure the prefix (the "incoming call from" text), also you can configure the "unknown caller" message, the volume, position and repeats of the speech, also if it should respect silent mode or not and a bunch of other stuff. sad it just doesn't work
I use an app called Call Announcer. It works for me. Not sure about the language issue though. I've only used english.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
is there any app that can save predefined voice commands for my contacts like the "stupid"phones did? (like you recored the sample and you have to say something similar to the sample to dial)
because in android voice dialing dowsn't recognise my language and therefore i can't use it. i don't need "where's the nearest restaurant" or similar things, only voice dialing by prerecorded commands
thanks!
anyone? -10char

You can try this app. It's paid but does exactly what you want.
Is there a voice command that allows me to dial numbers? With Google voice I can call contacts by name but it does not understand "Dial 12345etc". Do I need a third party app for this?

I don't know but am interested in the answer, coming from IOS to Android.
Press the microphone key in the dialer. Dictate your number. Works for me
