Hi all,
I want to do Voice Typing through my Android Device to my Windows Machine.
I found an app which works pretty well, called Unified Remote. Pretty well known.
The downside right now is: I always have to use the app, go to "Basic Input", open my Smartphone Keyboard (Gboard) and press the Voice Typing button. This is a long way.
I want to know whether the following is possible either in Unified Remote OR whether you know a similarly app:
I want to create either a widget or a Quick Action in the notification area which does the following on ONE click
It should directly open my default Keyboard app on my smartphone (as said: this is GBoard) directly in voice typing mode.
My goal is a One-Click solution to voice-type through my smartphone to my Windows machine.
Any ideas guys?
Thanks

Hi all!
Have recently upgraded to the G2 from a HTC Diamond. So far so good, but I have a few questions that I dont seem to be able to find via search.
Can you set all the keys to wakeup the device instead of just the power button?
Can you set xt9 as default input for SMS messages only. I know how to set xt9 but it seems to do this globally. I just want it for the SMS section
Is there a program like mymobiler that allows you to use your Android via a PC. This is especially useful at work when typing SMS.
Thanks for the help guys

all keys DO already wake up the device....well, almost. the home, call, end call and menu buttons do. To wake it up just press menu twice.
no. i don;t think you can.
not just yet i don't think. or not that i know of anyway.
I hope someone develops a similar MyMobiler app soon.
I love using it while I'm at work, can just put my phone down and text away without anyone seeing me on my phone.
androidscreencast apparently allows to control an Android phone via a PC, but at the moment it works only for rooted phones, because it wants to write to a directory which is normally not writable. That problem is known but a fixed version has not yet been released (but I guess it won't take very long any more).
First off, the noob video was great.
Next: I have a Galaxy S2 (D710) from sprint running Cyanogenmod 10. I don't think that really plays into the question I have, but just in case. What I am trying to do is launch one app from another. Specifically, I want to launch specific remotes from the "Universal Remote" app from Homeseer's HSTouch app. I am using the full version of Universal remote.
I have had success launching the camera on the phone from HSTouch by following the posts here: "board.homeseer.com/showthread.php?t=154394" (sorry for the lack of a link, I am not allowed to do that yet.)
Universal remote has a widget that can can launch specific remotes. When you set that up, it appears to use something similar to a url to launch the remote. IE: "ur://remote/Relmtech.Basic Input" to launch the basic input remote. I have tried putting this in the launch application dialog with no success. I have also tried any iteration or "Universal Remote" i could think of with no success. I don't know too much about the way that android works, but I assume that there is a "Path" where it looks for applications. When a command is given to run an application, it looks at the locations included in that path for the executable with the given name.. I am thinking that maybe "Camera" and "Calendar" are in that path, which is why they launch when those words are passed as arguments to the HSTouch app. Either "Universal Remote" is not in that path (not likely) or it is called something else (more likely).
So the question: Does anyone know how I can figure out what I need to put into HSTouch as an argument for launching these remotes?
Thanks in advance,
Josh
Hi guys,
I want to know how to do this, I've been fiddling with Tasker and Unified Remote but can't get it to work.
Basically, I've got an NFC tag outside my apartment, when I step in, I tag it, and that triggers a tasker profile which does a few tasks:
1) Switch off data
2) Switch on Wifi (and connect to home wifi)
3) Launch Airdroid on phone
4) Launch Chrome on PC and open Airdroid url (this doesn't work!)
5) Launch Foobar2000 on PC (this works)
6) Launch Foobar2000 android controller.
Everything works, except for launching the address in chrome. I can launch chrome just fine, but the url I've set doesn't open. How do I do this? Any ideas?
Thanks!
No one? I'm sorry to bump this, but I really wanna know, I've tired doing it myself, and I've tried Googling it.
I just wanna be able to get Unified remote to launch Google Chrome AND open a specific address on my PC. Using tasker.
Try Command Prompt
Have you tried UR's Command remote to open a URL on your PC that way?
I too need to make this work, so I'm going to dabble with the Command remote now...
Hey! I was searching for the same thing but couldn't find any easy solution. One solution I have in my mind is to integrate join and Eventghost on windows. But this will be lot more difficult than on android. I have noticed that eventghost has a steap learning curve. Do let me know if you have a better solution for the same.
Cheers!
I just recently switched to a Moto X from an iPhone 5, and I am looking for the one feature that I used every day on my iPhone. The speak selection feature. On iOS you can select any text, in basically any app, and click "speak" from the context menu. The device will read the text back to you without kicking you out of the app you were using or anything like that.
I found a similar app for Android, it's called Easy Text to Speech. However, this app works by monitoring the clipboard. Is there perhaps a way to do this without having to use the clipboard. For instance, by using the share option, but without having to switch to another program. I want to be able to browse the internet, select what I want to be read, and have it read to me without getting out of the browser or the app that I am using.
Perhaps there is a framework for Android for adding custom contextual commands?
Thanks for any help.

Hello everyone,
I hope someone can help me with this.
I am trying to automate my phone by using voice commands,state executions etc.
Tasker is one of the app I really like and hope to get some good understanding of it in order to make my phone more efficient.
Right now I'd like to know if there's a way to use the navigation system through the voice command and also set it to either use or not use motorways.
According to google, to use the navigation system I have to use the word "navigate to... location".
By doing this, a page, showing time and distance, comes up but then I have to click on it in order to proceed
However I tried "navigate to 'location' avoid motorway" and this doesn't work.
How can I achieve this?
Are there ways to go through apps functions using voice commands?
Is it there a better voice command alternative than google now?(i heard of autovoice and utter, what's your opinion?)
Thank you in advance
