Voice Dialing - HTC Inspire 4G

I'm running the Revolution ROM (works great) but I lost the Voice Dialing app when I got away from stock.
Any way to get that back ? I don't see it in the marketplace.

If I am not mistaking I believe Mike said he is going to put it back into his next release.

captivate 2.2 shows video call forwarding

just loaded 2.2 on my captivate and is shows ongoing call forwarding for video calls. i cant get it to go away. what is this? i used this I897UCJI6-OCD-REV02-Low-designgears(1) to update to froyo
i really need some help. i dont know what i did to show that option
Re-Flash
Flash back to JF6 with Odin one click and then re-flash Cog 2.2 beta 5.5.
any reason for that rom? or just it doesnt have the bug? i assume its a bug
guess what i still have a video call forward thing on there im reverting back to 2.1 ill wait
any one else have this problem? or just me
I don't see that on mine. I'm running Cog v2.2 b6.
it went away for some reason i dont know why or how it comes up. i didnt know it had a video call option
Forwarding all video calls
I am having the same problem.
dood.. your loading a cooked rom with pieces from other roms. Your going to see items like that, that are completely not compatible with the captivate.
you don't have a front facing camera anywhere for it. Stop loading cooked roms and wait for official froyo so you know what features there are.

[Q] Integrated Voice Control

Hey gang,
I've got a Captivate i896 with Rogers and was wondering if there was any way to enable the integrated voice control? I'm running 2.1.
Does anyone know why it was disabled?
Thanks!
Not sure what your specific interest is. Can you be more specific?
I'm not exactly sure which voice controls you're talking about. If you're talking about the voice commands that allow you to send texts and emails and the like that is only available in 2.2. It is not a feature that is disabled in 2.1, it just was never implemented.
Hey. Thanks for the replies.
I was under the impression I had the option to use the mic on my earphone to control my Android device. I'm assuming there is no way to enable it?
I am running 2.1, which would explain my I have none of the good stuff. Hopefully we get a CM 6.1 for the Captivate in the not to far future!
you can install vlingo.
the stock keyboards dont have the microphone button and i think voice control only works for google search but i could be wrong i haven't used a stock rom in a while.
I still don't know what you want to control on the device.
Voice dial phone numbers, if I remember correctcly, just cannot be done very well on 2.1 Vlingo makes an attempt, but not very good.
With Vlingo, you can read text and email messages into it, but you need to speak very clearly.
It will not, at least last they told me, open third party apps. The latest does, but I think it may require 2.2...not sure
Vlingo has a promising app for using in the Car. You can set it to automatically come up based on a specific BT you turn on. And you can have it set to be 'listening', so you don't even have to push a button. HYou just say "Hey Vlingo". and it asks what you want. Problem is it doesn't listen (BTW this does require 2.2). By that I mean it hears when I say Hey Vlingo, but after that its like the mic is shut off, and it does not hear. I don't know if that is a bug in Vlingo (it is beta), or the leaked Froyo Rom I am running.
All in all, things sound like we'll be there some day, but not now.
Google Voice Action (also requires 2.2) is more accurate for dialing (in my experience) than Vlingo. But it is opposite of Vlingo. Where Vlingo can come up with the push of a BT button, but not hear; Google won't come up wiht a BT Button, but when you push the search button to bring it up, at least it hears.
The android keyboard has the mic button and accepts my speach just fine

Similar question: on 2.2 with the Google Voice Actions, is there any way to use them when not connected to wifi/3g? Anytime I try it says that there is no connection. I just want to call someone with it, not search. Should that require a connection also?

Current rom: Cognition 2.3b3
Have you tried the Nuance Vsuite (Voice Commands) that's on the Fascinate? I can post the .apk and .so files if you're interested.
I've used the voice command stuff w/o being on WIFI a lot.
On the Nuance stuff, I'd be glad to test it.
BTW...there is someone in the Cognition thread working on a program that will call up the Google Voice Search via Blue Tooth. I am testing it for him, and it seems to be working for me. Not sure when he'll be making it available to general public. He wants to add some features.

OK. The attached is from my stock D101 (Eclair) Fascinate /system. You can just flash the thing in with CWM if you like, or move the files yourself.
Disclaimer: I'm not responsible if something breaks
Being as I have a Captivate, and am on 2.2, not 2.1, what I think I'll do is hold off testing until I am ready to do a new flash. DG has a new Cognition 2.2 ROM out, actually based off of a Vibrant rom, which I may flash after I see how it is going for everyone else.
So when I'm to that point, I'll test this first on current ROM, and post back then how it goes.
Thanks for the files.
I would hope that voice control would work over bluetooth and without 3G or wifi. Wouldn't it be a function of the phone? I'd hate to have to pay Roger's every time I want to use it.
I'm probably going to wait till a CM 6.1 release for the Captivate before I do anything with it. Roger's will be releasing 2.2 to Captivate users some time in January 2011 (which could mean any time really). Hopefully CM comes first. By then, 2.2 will be out no doubt.
This may be a bit confounded, but it works for me. I use four apps for voice control.
For phone calls, I've found Vlingo to be the most accurate. (but not so great at opening apps). You can also say things like "call the nearest Walmart" or "call a taxi"
For opening apps, I've found Choice Dialer to be the best (but no so accurate at phone calls). It also has lots of other features I don't use.
For Google searching, maps & navigation I've found the regular voice search to be the best.
And for defining words, spelling, math, translation, and a bit of fun, I've found Edwin to be the best.
Hope this helps!
The way that google voice control works is that it records your voice command then uses the servers on the internet to interpret the voice command. This allows more powerful servers with billions of voice samples, which now includes yours, to accurately interpret the voice command and respond quickly. That's why it needs either wifi or 3g connection. I'm not sure how Vlingo does it. It was so buggy on my 2.1 that I uninstalled it.
Hey guys,
Thanks for the replies!
I flashed Cognition a while ago and it voice control (long hold on magnify glass) works beautifully! Exactly what I was looking for and works like a charm.
I tried a couple of applications like Vlingo and it doesn't work nearly as good as the native function.

[Q] Did I make a mistake?

Rooted the phone and updated to the latest ROM.
I seem to recall a voice dial app before I applied the latest ROM.
It seems to be gone.
Is there a way to get it back?
Voice Search replaced it, it's on the Market
Thanks given. Got it semi-working.

[MOD] Bluetooth Voice Dialer - Compatible With Any Rom

All credit goes the great mike1986. as this was taken from his thread.
Thanks to him Ive successfully been able to fix the bluetooth voice earpiece feature that was not working on the Rom in the signature.
Ive flashed my share of Froyo Roms and it seems that a lot of them have the same problem as well as some Gingerbread maybe.
The idea is to push the call/end button on your bluetooth connected earpiece to do various call related features without having to grab your phone, its all controlled via voice command.
Many people have been looking for a fix for this.. well here it is.
Directions:
Flash via CWM, reboot and you should have the feature fully functional.

Additionally here is a video on the Voice Actions for Android, NOTE: This is different from the Bluetooth Voice Dialer as it has additional features

I'll give this a try tonight.

I'm running RCMix 5.3 and the BT voice dialer works alright for me. Do I need this fix? The one thing I'd really like from the current ROM for BT voice dialing is to have a tone to cue me when the applet is ready to listen.

I am running AR 5.1.3. Voice dial works fine from the phone but when I try to initiate it from my bluetooth headset I get a Force Close of processcom.android.voicedialer. I uninstalled voice dialer with TB and then installed the bluetooth voice dialer from this thread via CWM and I still get the force close when initiating from my bluetooth.
Any ideas on how I can fix this other than flashing a new rom?
Okay I just flashed to LeeDroid which claims to have fixed the Bluetooth Voice Dial Problem and I still get a force close when initiating it from my headset.
Anyone have any ideas please????
Wow this is cool to have. Im not having much accuracy though. Ive got a 2 year old Jawbone Prime so my bets are that its the problem. Looks cool but hasnt played nice since day one. Anyhow this does work if you got a decent headset
Did you ever figure this out?

I'm having the same problem and would really like to see this fixed. When I tap the voice dialer app on the phone, it works as it should. However, it always FC when pressing the bluetooth button. I think the settings file associated with connecting the bluetooth button to the app is the problem, but I don't know what file it is or how to make it better.

Download Cyberon Voice from the market. It does cost a couple of bucks but it makes all problem go away on every rom you need BT with. At least for me it did!

missing voice dialer
I tried to flash it, and it didn't do anything. I'm using Virtuous Unity v1.27.0. I even tried to extract the app from the zip (which currently doesn't exist on my phone) and install that way, but it says "application not installed". Nothing happens at all when i hit the button on my bluetooth. With the stock rom, before installing VU, it would pull up the voice dialer. But i can't even install it now. Can anyone help me out? Thanks!
EDIT: Got it to install, but now it force closes when I try to use it, with or without a bluetooth headset.
awesome!!!!!
I'm running AHD 6.1 but it lacks the ability to let bluetooth headset to do voice command. but after i flashed this it worked out fine!!
and btw im using vlingo to do voice dialing, its an awesome app!!

The post before yours says they're running "AHD" 6.1 with this dialer and it works fine. I'm assuming this was supposed to be ARHD 6.1 which is a GB ROM

Yeah, I wasn't clear. I figured it would work since it worked on the one before, but I wasn't sure if the previous post was confirming 6.1.0 or 6.1.1. So, I'm hoping for 6.1.1 support confirmation so I don't brick this puppy.

6.1.0 was the first version of his new base (2.3.5GB based on HTC 3.06.405.1)
6.1.1 is the same base with updates/enhancements from mike1986. I can't imagine this would bork you. If you're too worried, make a backup. This isn't going to brick your phone to a point where you can't get to recovery and flash your backup

Right. That was my assumption and my plan once I got home tonight to do that assuming no-one confirmed it for me. Will flash after while and edit post with results.
I flashed this to arhd 6.1.1. It don't work. App did not appear to be installed. I tried installing the apk and it would just say application not installed.
So it appears to be a no go.

[Q] ROM and Bluetooth issue S3 - Help

Just installed CleanROM 6 R2. Very nice ROM! I do have a continuing issue I want to put out there, see if any others have it? Confirm it?
This isn't due to the ROM, but with the new ROM installed, the problem continues, so I am curious. (Going to try another soon)
When I have pattern security, and using my Q2 Blueant Bluetooth headset, I try to make a voice call. (S Voice disabled, Assistant used for voice commands currently) When trying to make the call, I hear the tone from the phone, to start talking, but I get a "Not supported by phone" message on the headset.
If I attempt the same test, with NO lock screen security it works fine.
I attempted this test, with pattern security on a S4 for ATT, works. S4 for Verizion, NOT working. Same for the S3.
I test with the same bluetooth on a Verizon Rezound (GF phone), works perfectly.
Why does it fail on the S3, with stock 4.2.1 and now with CleanROM? I figured it was some kind of software from Verizon... maybe the firmware somehow? Remaining software of some kind?

I don't have this BT issue on Clean or any other TW or ASOP rom. I use PIN lockscreen. I have used my ERA and Blueant BT with Cyberon voice commander, and both work fine. On ASOP, I get a 5 second delay in acknowledging the command bit it eventually works.

But... DAMN! LOL I can't figure out why this is happening. I will try Cyberon, but S Voice and Assistant failed for me.

I hope it helps you. I have been very frustrated since the JB update with BT voice dialing. ICS worked 100% better. Both S voice and Google now have been very disappointing for voice dialing. I find Cyberon to work more than 95% of the time.

Yeah, I hope so too. Maybe when CleanROM is updated with MF1 I will find out.
I have been happy with Assistant, as far as quality of voice dialing interpretation. I even bought the paid version, although not needed really.
S Voice is horrible, the S3 version. My buddy has the S4 on ATT, and S Voice is WAY better. (And my BT works with patter lock on his S4. But NO WAY I got to ATT. Hahaa)

There are a couple of TW roms, including Bone Stock and Hyperdrive that give you the option to choose S4 S Voice to install. If you are on a stock kernel, you can probably flash the MF1 firmware and not bork your camera. You should check the clean rom thread to see if anyone has done that yet.

Yep, I am watching the forum. Don't want to be the first one to try it, I don't yet have the skills to fix undocumented problems.
I think my problem though, is the Bluetooth security bypass. Not the Voice app..... but time will tell.
Just flashed the MF1 firmware and the Stock ROM for MF1, and no luck on bluetooth!
Anyone out there with a BlueAnt Q2 bluetooth and a S3, stock or another ROM that could test for me? Killing me not being able to control my phone on the motorcycle, my HTC never had the problem, only S3 and S4 on Verizon... S3 and S4 on ATT works.
I'll put a bounty on this... need to figure it out!
