I use SVOX with Victoria package (not free). All you have to do is change your default voice by going to your settings > Language and Settings > Voice Input & Output > Text-to-Speech Settings and change the default engine to SVOX (must already be downloaded from the market.
SVOX Classic

Bump. I would like to know this too
I just bought Loquendo TTS Susan. I suggest you check it out, it sounds to me like exactly what you're looking for.
Good job. Purchased.

Dragon speech recognition

Has any one tired the new Swype? It has dragon speech on it. It is 100 times better then google voice search. Is there any way to pull that out of Swype and make default voice recognition? Thanks

As in what you use when you press the search button or for absolutely everything? (ex: third party app integration)

It's very accurate, but you need data active to use it. I wonder why that is?

I am having the exact same issue!
Anyone actually got it working? If so, how?
Many thanks!
have you installed a 3rd party keyboard?
i'm using swift key and all is well, but i thought i read somewhere that keyboards may cause an issue with the voice recognition thing
edit: i've been testing and it's working fine here
I can get to it to work on nexus 7 but not the 5

Sswipe left to the Google Now page and scroll down to the settings. Press Voice > Language and then English... > English (US). Then it will work.

You need to switch the language of Google Now to US English in the settings. Currently doesn't work in any other language unfortunately (even other forms of English!). Hope for update to fix this soon.
I don't see why Google couldn't do at least the other forms of English too. I mean, much less work than a completely different language. They already have voice recognition for all English sublangugaes, makes no sense to me why they couldn't enable it for UK English when the device can recognise the words 'OK Google' in my British accent just fine.
There have been a couple of times where it opens after saying Google now, but then hangs while trying to recognise what I've said and it sucks the battery (shows a lot of use under google services and google search), I have to restart the phone before it then works again.
Thanks guys much appreciated

Voice to text?

Is there a way to change the voice to text to google instead of using the SVoice? The Svoice talk to text is horrible.

Package Disabler Pro App
Check Samsung Voice Input which will disable it and make Google voice input the default

This is the first Question!

Mabye a Dev can make a Fix with a APK to let them work?
Thanks in advance
You have to install Google TTS from playstore, then you can select TTS voice sygic. On my mtcd it works.

Not very big, don't remember exactly. When you installed it, go to settings, language and input, then the settings of TTS, and download your language for offline use.

Thanks i found this sulotion to let tts work. Now the second question, ist it possible to let it work with the adjusted Volume and Musik ore its not possible with the GPS Monitor ? Standart works fine without tts.
Ik think you have to set Google TTS as nav app in GPS settings. Then you can mix volumes of nav voice and fm radio.

Thanks it worked for me. But cant use the Navi Button on the Radio. Maybe a App to let change the Button??

Can you give more detailed instructions on how you set this, please?
I noticed that radio volume dimming works with standard voices, but not with tts voices. If I set Google TTS as Nav app in settings, Sygic is not started when I tap on the Navigation button. Or should I just set Google TTS as the Nav app, and start Sygic through its own button?

I've the same problem. Sygic with Google TTS is always mixed with unchanged Radio sound, so hard to understand. The existing setting menu to mute or reduce Radio volume during Navi sound is not working (works only with standard voices). Its Android 9.
Seraching for a solution !!! Urgent !
