My voice navigation does not work properly and cant figure it out.. it mirrors this problem exactly "I have a problem with my Google Maps. Each time I try to use Driving Navigation function, I receive the following error: "For voice-guided navigation, you need to install text-to-speech support from the Android Market." Then, when I click on "Install," I'm taken to the Market and I receive another message saying: "There are no matches in Android Market for the search: pname:com.svox.langpack.installer." Has anyone experienced similar issue? Any advice how to solve this?
However, if I skip the installation, it seems that there is already basic speech navigation installed because I hear "in half a mile, turn left"-- the GPS voice however is not saying the street name or highway name like my mytouch did. Is this normal?" i checked under voice setting and under pico it says the language pack isnt installed but i cant get it off market... whats the solution PLEASE

This is the second time in the last 2 days that I've received this error message when using Maps. I'm running a MT3G with SuperD 1.11 ROM. I've never had this problem before until now so it's perplexing. Here's the scenario:
I open Maps and do a search for a business location. It finds it and then pops up an error that states:
"Google has disabled use of the maps API for this location. The client IO provided is not valid for this site."
You can close the message box to make it go away and things APPEAR to work fine. But, I'm not 100% sure.
Has anyone else come across this? Is it something to be concerned about (functionality-wise)? Any fixes?
Thanks!
Nobody else have this problem, I suppose?
Hi all,
I use a Galaxy S3 T999 and across several different 4.3 ROM's, I've found that since about a month ago, every time I hit the microphone key on the keyboard to voice type, the GPS icon will display for about 4 seconds. I don't know why this is necessary, any input?
So, if this bothers you (privacy, battery life?) here's the solution I found:
First, trying to control location permissions for this will block all location access otherwise. You must disable location permissions for Google framework which will also stop location from working in maps, etc.
The solution I found is to uninstall the update to the "Google Search" app, and check the box to stop it from auto-updating. I see zero performance impact or functionality loss, and no loss of accuracy in voice typing, for my purposes (I don't use the Google Search app or Google Now). The voice typing process uses about 10% less cpu while it is listening to your voice too.
The Google Search app, as far as I know, provides the functions of Google Now. Using an old version means you'll be missing some cards and perhaps some other functions. Since I personally don't use Google Now, this solution works for me and hopefully for someone else.
Questions:
Does your gps icon blink for a bit every time you hit the microphone key (on the keyboard) to voice type? I found not every device is doing this.
Why?
It worked - Thank you!
Thanks a ton! Your fix worked, this location stuff was bothering me. Looks like not many are bothered by the GPS locating happening everytime the Google Voice Typing is opened or is it just a few phones plagued. I am on a Galaxy S3 (i9300) running CM10.2.
This seems to be a T999 issue
I have some problems with Google voice search.
I cant get any audible answer from Google now, no matter what question i try (not every question generate audible answers).
I have tried to set media volume to max, and to press volume up when i should hear the answer. Language is set to English(US) and voice output is on.
Second problem is that i cant open any apps with voice search, or set a reminder. "Take a picture" or "Play some music" doesnt work either.
I have unrooted stock fw (4.4.4) and use the Google Now launcer (3.6.14.1337016).
This should work outside US right, as long as i have set the language to english? (i also tried this using TunnelBear vpn with no success).
Anyone know what i could try to make these things work?
edit: i've tried to fix this problem several times, it has newer worked for me. 2 minutes after posting this i solved both problems by changing system language to English (it was in my native language).
So i guess you need to use a system language that supports voice search to make it work..
Hello
Im using Copilot navigation and the voice is cut off, example when the voice should tell "Please turn left", tell "Please tur" and cut. On my android phone is OK.
If You want @Malaysk I can send you on private my android account where I have bought this app.
Second question, Im always update only rom from dupdate.img, I need to update mcu also?
hi i know this is old post but did you ever solve the issue, i have the same problem.
and have found i can only use the standard android voice if you change it to one of the named voices it will cut out.
I have the same problem aswell. I'm using a kgl px5 and it's really annoying

How do you get it to have the standard android voice? I think I could cope with that as I like using the co pilot app. I'm using iGo at the moment and although it works properly it's nowhere near as good as copilot.
Hi you just pick the top voice option pico TTS and it will use the basic google voice, which for some unknown reason is the only one t hat doesnt cut out half way through a sentence.

Do you mean on the copilot app itself in the voice settings?
Sorry yes the copilot app itself

I've sorted it, thanks buddy!
It is an American woman's voice but atleast it's working so I'll learn to put up with her??
No worries, glad I could help.
ab1702 i have been having a play with the voice settings and think i may have a better solution, i now have a UK voice in CoPilot that doesn't cut off and that sounds relatively normal and not like a darlek.
If you go to the playstore on your headunit and install the Google TTS package, Then go into your settings in android, go to the device' Settings, and to Language and Input > Text-to-Speech Output, and select the google TTS instead of the pico TTS option then change all the google TTS settings in the same menus u can choose english UK and there is also 2 voice packages with various Male\Female voices i find the bottom one in package one to be the most human, Once you have changed all the settings in android Then open your copilot voice options and it should have changed to the Google TTS voice you have chosen in android and should work fine. Let me know how you get on :good:
I had the same problem with Greek copilot voices. It was cutting off the voice after first 2 words. I've installed TTS and now it has been fixed, but i have problem with the voices volume. I can barely hear them while radio is on and i can't find a way to turn it up. I tried the settings in (android) Navigation menu but even if i change the volume it is still the same. Also i found a setting in languages menu to boost the tts volume but still the same even it is on or off.
Any ideas?

Reduce the radio volume in factory settings?
Hi,
I just got my Honor 8 and I have encountered problem with voice control. Wake up word works fine, but if I try to follow with command "where are you" or "Call someone" it does not react.
Qucik call - pressing volume down and saying "Call someone" works ok.
I have tried to disable Google app, but it didn't help. Tried to find other solutions, but there is nothing.
Any ideas? Thanks a lot
Are you having problems with camera app as well pop up that says audio.google.searchbox. I'm also disappointed I can't see a way to fix this.
When OK Google detection is turned on it does this with a lot of apps.
Hello.
I think there are 2 competing voice control systems on the device. The phones voice control and googles. Am I right? Does anyone know how theese work together e.g. do you have to choose wich one to use whereas the otherone will be disabled? In the beginning my local voice control worked fine but after turning on google voice control ("ok google") the local system started erroring. When trying to configure voice control i get a message "HiVoice Is currently recording audio. com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox:interactor will not be able to record right now".
Any ideas whats going on?
I tried disabling Ok Google, but it doesn't work I switched to using Ok Google instead as this one works fine
