On the My Touch 4G I have both the Google Search and the Voice Dialer. Is there no Voice Dialer for the Sensation?? I have been looking in the apps folder and the widgets with no luck. I used that app very often.
Thanks

Voice Search does much more than just search. Tell it to call someone from your address book and it will. "Call John on mobile" will do just that
Thanks, The My Touch 4G and the Nexus One has both the Google search and the Voice dialer. They are two separate apps. I used the voiice dialer all the time and found it much more accurate then the search app.
does that thing with call john conner work on german phones ??
i tried that in some combination of words but it didnt work ....
he wants to search the internet when i say " call "person" "
I've been trying to use my BT to dial a call and can't like on my mt4g wtf

Hmm I notice that in the description of Voice Search on the Android Market it says that voice actions only work in US English right now. I'm assuming that's referring to the default language you have your phone set to, but I'm not certain about that.

Thanks... people dont know how to search... ?
Ok please correct me if I'm wrong..but from everything I have tried and read...it currently is not possible to push three button on my blue tooth and say call so and so.. right? I think we have to want till root so we can put the voice dialer in the system folder ? I have installed the dialer and several of the 3rd party apps.. but so far the best I can do is listen to music and receive call...this is a blue tooth on my helmet..so pushing a button on the phone is out of the question...

I'm looking for a sense dialer app (or similar). Basically, one that will query contacts AND the call log as you dial. Do any exist?
don't think so. but you can search for NubDialer in the market - made by Wysie. Or you can also try the dialer one. it's something quite similar to sense dialer.

Dialer One doesn't query the call log or tell you the number you are calling (e.g., mobile, work, etc.). I just checked and NubDialer doesn't either.
Re: Sense dialer app (or similiar)
has anyone found an app to do this yet?

the search widget does this too. as you type it searches your contacts.

This isn't accurate. If I called 1234567890 a week ago, but it isn't in my phonebook, I cannot type 456 in DialerOne and have it retrieve that record. He has thrown in a new "group by call log" which will sort the query results by most frequently called, but that is it.

Right... but again - not looking for contacts... Looking for call log.
me too.
i tried "dailer one" and its not bad. it searches for contacts while you dial. but i dont like the ui.
i would prefer something more sense like...
does somebody know where to find it?
maybe if somebody could pull it from a sense rom?
EDIT: actually the ui of dialer one is far better if you set the the system wallpaper as background.
i think dialer one will become my phone app;-)

I'm working on making a theme to sense dialer, I will make a thread for it today
As all HTC apps need & use HTC's framework, none of them can be used on a normal Android ROM. The only way is installing a Sense ROM. But as people told you, Dialer One & NubDialer are the best dialers out there.

This will come in time my friend.. With higher root comes higher privilege that we can take advantage of, or HTC finally realizes and updates our devices with an option to enable / disable

Not without root access.
Why do people think the genius button is so horrible? Its helluva lot more useful than regular search, you would know if you actually tried it out.

I wish I could customize it to launch vlingo instead. Genius doesn't even have a navigate command. I would use it, but it starts way slower than vlingo and isn't as accurate.

It's called choice. I don't want it for search at all. There are other apps that can take advantage of the search button on every other device except the Slide and the MT4G. Options are always a good thing.

+1 to map it to Vlingo instead...I wonder if I can setup a Tasker profile to do this? The "Genius" button so far is the only thing that has ever caused my phone to crash and reboot...
i love the genius button. i use it all the time plus there are navigation options in it. i use it all the time. it asked for an address and i said mine and it did great and had no errors reading what i said. or i can say a place i wanna find and it shows me ones around me then i click on it and click nav and its good to go. i love how it reads my text messages and i can say a text message and it does really good with picking up what i said with out having errors or not putting in words i didnt say.
Have you guys tried downloading Google Search or any other app that uses the search button?
Maybe that applicatino that allows you to launch anything with the search key.

Where is the sound recorder app? I see it listed under manage apps but its not in my app drawer. And no I didn't disable it. Just did a factory reset so nothing is disabled. How do you access the sound recorder?

LOL it's in the market
Kidding, by adding a widget ti the screen (if you've downloaded it from the htc widgets app)
Or by installing a 3rd party one from market
Alternatively you can opprn the command prompt and type begin, writeln(LOL), readln; end. But that is only for hackers cuz we do it the hard way

yeah, dude i thought i was the only one who noticed/needed this wtf is up with that?
note* i STILL cant find it...its prolly only there for integration for other apps :/

if you can see it in Manage Apps then try to search for it from the Home screen. I know the Dock Mode doesn't show up in my App Drawer but I an run it if I search for it.
& yes, TMOUS did take it out along with some other things.

good tip for the dock mode, i always saw it running, but never saw the app before
but voice recorder doesnt show up under that search, even when i enter the package name :/
oh well 3rd party app, here i come
EDIT: when looking at the all, its 0.00kb, with NO app data or cache...looks like they deleted the app data, but forgot to uninstall...slackass T-Mobile :/
Go to the market & download "any cut". Open it & select "new shortcut" & then select "activity". Once the list loads, scroll down till you find the entry for the sound recorder. Select it, follow the prompts, and it will add a shortcut to the sound recorder to your home screen. Voila- sound recorder.

You do know that it's HTC that does the software modifications that T-Mobile requests, right? So it's slackass HTC, not T-Mobile.
On another note, I agree that T-Mobile does always seem to request removal of useful things and add crap like MyAccount. We can get that off the market if WE want it. My best guess is that by the time they are done adding they're crap too much just is running the background so they start removing other stuff.

it's somewhat per app... if the text block has the mic icon you don't need one on the keyboard so it doesn't show on the keyboard in some apps, especially if the app has a search function. and you can always use the hot words if you have it set to a compatible language...

well for example, it wont show up in hangouts, which is the only time i used this function (to text)
Yeah, this is important, I use it quite a bit to text. Swiftkey has it as a long press but I like the standard keyboard better so I'd prefer to use that.
You also need to enable voice typing, in addition to the mic.

Things that make me go "derp", thank you!
Also, I'm not sure if this is a requirement, but I did not see changes in my keyboard after changing those settings until after I performed a reboot. YMMV.
