Anyone know why these programs keep auto starting?

I was wondering if anyone knows why these programs are auto starting. I closed them via advanced task killer and they keep coming back.
They are:
- messages: I use handcent. I don't use the stock one, and I turned off notifications and defaulted handcent as my text program.
- com.coremobility.app.vnotes: not sure what this is.
- Sprint navigation: I have gps turned off.

I get the same thing plus Google Voice, Voice Dialer, Voicemail I have Google Voice set to never be used I never use Voice Dialer, and Voicemail just pops up occasionally

Uh, if you will never use Google Voice, then why in the world is it installed?

hanscent works off of the stock apps cache, it cant keep threaded convos without the stock (crap) app.
core.mobility.app.vnotes is visual voicemail
sprint nav is a pain and could be trashed at any time for better efficiency. Unneeded for those with google maps installed, imo

I have google voice set to never be used but that doesn't mean I never use it

google maps has navigation?
Is there anyway I can keep them from opening until needed?

google maps has text, not voice navi...thats enough for me. Google Navigation will have full navigation with voice.
as far as an autokill, I'm not sure what can be done to stop them. In autostarts, it shows you what environments some processes start in, and some seem quite unrelated (Sprint Navi starts with sms received). I'd say get taskiller free and pluck them off whenever you notice the phone getting laggy

Alright. Thanks.
is there a better navi we can download ( besides google maps )
What about a better keyboard?

So I was determined to figure out how to disable these apps from autostarting and I just figured it out. Ha. Now I just need to see if I can make it run with the install of fresh rom or if it will be a separate thing. I'll let you all know when I get it figured out.

I'm not sure on the navi, all of them are pretty heavy on the memory. Sprint Navi is quality, it's just bloated, IMO. I don't travel alot so it's not a necessity to me.
keyboard- the best is better keyboard, it's a paid app but it's an upgrade from stock. I'm still on stock and with the added speed boost from .7, it seems alot more precise

[REQ] Vlingo InCar apk

Wasnt sure exactly where to post this. The new app from Vlingo, "Vlingo InCar" is in beta, and only available through the market for sprint customers during the beta period.
Could one of you kind evo users post up the apk for the rest of the android community? Thanks!

Best of luck with it! I love it so far!

What does this do that you cannot do with the new google voice program?

When you put it in "InCar" mode you can say "Hey Vlingo" to wake it up and use voice commands.
FYI, this works on the VZW with the Incredible with no problem..

Also, it works! The new Google program is about 1/10 in getting what I say right.
Vlingo is (so far) about 5/5. I like that if it doesn't find what you're saying locally, it does a (very fast) internet search.

any word on making it work for other android devices? ie the g-1

Works great on the dinc. I appreciate the share!

thank you so much for sharing this app with the community. I have been fooling around with it for half an hour or so and it does some pretty awesome things. LOVE the in-car feature, completely hands-free and works perfectly, even reads and writes text messages for me. "hey vlingo"
Edit: Forgot to add, very accurate, even with names

Wow, the incar mode is really REALLY good. Anybody know how to have it differentiate between a contacts home and cell when sending a text message?

Say call blah blah mobile. That should work.

Google's voice search sucked at recognizing what I was saying for the first week or so, but then it got a lot better. I'm wondering if it learns your voice or something. Vlingo, on the other hand, worked well on day one. However, while it does a good job of recognizing what I am saying, it doesn't always give me the results I wanted. For instance, movie times never come up even though that's one of the examples the app shows, and it displays my exact phrase correctly (movie times near #####). It just says "No answer found". And I've also had trouble getting it to dial the right phone number for a contact. It's like it ignores when I say "mobile."

I'm having the same problem. It ignores when I say "mobile" after the contacts name. My g/f is getting irritated with the text to landline messages that repeat "test" lol

Is it necessary to install the standard Vlingo app before installing the incar pack?
I´ve been trying to download the installer but i still cant find it, it´s not in the market either.
It would be much if I ask to share the installer?

? It's in the second post of this thread.

anyway to successfully have this running in the background with the in-car? Currently it seems that the program has to be on main screen for me to say "Hey Vlingo" and it wakes...
Plus..too bad I cant say Jarvis to have it wake up

Instead of 'mobile' try saying 'cell'.

Right now the best way is to make two contacts for the person and label one cell and one home after the name. Best workaround at the moment.

Yeah, I went ahead and did that the other day, but thanks! Hopefully that will get sorted.
It would be nice if you could ask it to use your GV # by default as well.

i wonder if there is any way to train a contact that it gets wrong every time. Wifes name is tricky and unless i use her last name first it misses it every time.

What can S Voice do?

I just installed a ROM with S Voice and Im totally digging it. I did a google search and I see that there is some information, but very limited. Anyone know what all S Voice can do?

It's basically Samsung's answer to Apple's Siri. Though I don't think it is as advanced, but not really sure. I only messed around with it briefly on SkyICS.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S_Voice
Little comparison between the 2 - http://phandroid.com/2012/06/13/face-off-samsung-galaxy-s3s-s-voice-vs-iphone-4ss-siri-video/

Played around with it for a few minutes.
-Made a call
-Sent a text
-Set an alarm
All 3 without a single issue, voice recognition was great and I was mumbling quietly for the majority of commands including the actual text.

You can also use "Navigate to x" and "What is the weather".
If anyone find a comprehensive list of commands could you please post a link?
Thank you

i have used command's like "How is weather today?" "Where can I get pizza or gas?" "How does my day look?" and I got right answers.
The only issue I had was with Voice command integration. I have a Blueant Q2 and "Phone Command" should automatically invoke S-Voice. 8 out of 10 times it did not work and that's probably because it has not been properly integrated in S2. I am sure it works well in S3.

Google Voice 0.3.0 Galaxy S3 ICS 4.0.4

**UPDATE** I MADE IT WORK
Hey, I'm not sure if there is an answer to this...
I just got my GS3 and love it! However, Google Voice 0.3.0 (ya'll know why I love it) crashes on the ICS 4.0.4 platform. I have been using
Voice+ but I just don't like the call back feature. I have also found a smart gv dialer that automatically decides between gv and the cell carrier based upon certain rules but it still takes a while to complete the calling card style dial through.
YES, I WANT MY CAKE AND TO EAT IT TOO!!! or in this case my ice cream sandwich I know with the unlimited plans floating around most people don't care anymore. I have an OLD OLD OLD plan that is grandfathered in with unlimited data so I don't want to give it up.
My question is, does anyone know of a fix for the app crash that worked fine in 2.2. Or has anyone "recompiled" the app to work in ICS?
Thanks for any help...
THE ANSWER!!!
UPDATE:
Yay! I know it doesn't seem like much for some but those of us still using our trusty f&f plans this is big.
I hope this helps someone out there who found that the old GV 0.3.0 app would hang up and crash as soon as you touched next on the new ICS 4.0.4.
If you want to have the old GV 0.3.0 on ICS 4.0.4, follow these steps:
1. Install newest version of GV from play store.
2. Open GV and touch next but do not choose the displayed gmail account touch USE A DIFFERENT ACCOUNT (this is the only way to get this
to work!)
3. Type in your Gmail address and your password (I know it is the same one that was displayed on the previous page... THIS IS THE ONLY
WAY TO GET IT TO WORK!) Touch sign in.
4. Choose how you want GV to dial and whether or not you want to set up the GV Voicemail.
5. Now, download the old GV 0.3.0 apk here: http://www.freewarelovers.com/androi...oice_0.3.0.apk
Thank you www.freewarelovers.com!!
6. Make sure Install from Unknow Sources is selected under the security tab in your settings menu.
7. Open the Google_Voice_0.3.0.apk file (Look in your apps and touch Downloads to get to the downloaded files)
8. You will get a message that you are replacing an application and that all previous user data will be saved. Touch OK.
9. Touch Install.
Now you should have a working GV 0.3.0 apk that will allow you to call through GV utilizing only one access number place this number in your F&F list and make outgoing calls for free!
*Disclaimer - Although this works you may want to review your TOS to see if this violates your carriers terms for Friends and Family numbers.
If this helped you please show my thanks meter some love!

Gv works fine for me. Are you still stock or on a custom rom? Fresh gv download from play?

GV works for me as well, I only use it for voicemails but I haven't had any odd issues. Btw, why are you on an older version? The app hasn't been updated since March but it's on build 0.4.2.54. I definitely suggest using the above users' suggestions.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

The reason for gv 0.3.0 is because this is the last version that does not use direct access numbers. It only uses one number for direct dialing out. Which means I can assign the one number to my f&f list.

yes, i asked this some time ago. but your reasoning for liking version 0.3.0 is moot. theres ways to get it working like you want on the latest version.

Yay, I figured it out!

I decided that was the best place to move the info to keep it from being buried.

I know it is fairly moot, I said almost the same thing in my original post. However, some of us don't like change. Also, I only have 500 minutes for my wife and I to share (makes our plan really cheap) but we do have F&F numbers. Generally the callback dialers don't put the outgoing number in the history and it takes 5 seconds or so to connect to the outgoing call (also fairly moot for the use of free calling).

Oh im sorry I think you misunderstood what I meant. The way you describe above didnt work for me, I still got force closed when launching GV after installing the older version. You can search here and see the thread regarding that.
What I meant was, there is a simple way to use the new version of google voice that allows for dialing one number only so that your friends and family list can have that one number in it still. I like the look of the new version personally, I would like a black themed one though so I may look for that later.
A side note, the new plans include unlimited voice anyways so it only really matters if you arent on one of the new plans.

First, what is your problem? Did you not read my posts or just like to come and insert your conjecture wherever you can? I stated I have a CHEAP plan with only 500 minutes. I pay $89/mo for two smartphones with unlimited data, TRY TO BEAT THAT PRICE!
Second, if you merely select the gmail account linked to your phone on the first set-up screen then it wont work. You must use the "use a different account option." Then yes, you manually type in the same gmail address that is more than likely the gmail address you use to link your android phone to google. This is the way that the old google voice app stores your user data and will allow the old gv app to work. Plus, there is no way to make the new gv app stop dialing direct access numbers.
Feel free to offer the way you "know" it can only dial one access number and I would be more than happy to try the new gv app.
UPDATE: Furthermore I have looked at all of your posts concerning this issue and you have not offered a single solution towards the problem nor explained work arounds you tried or how they failed or worked.

you are being way to hostile. I AM IN THE SAME BOAT AS YOU, I have 1400 minutes with a family plan. I am however fortunately on unlimited data. So I dont know what you mean by "insert your conjecture". I will beat it because I pay $150 for 5 lines and have unlimited data on at least 2 of the lines. So I understand the value of friends and family lists.
The "Second , if you merely select... " way doesnt work in all/most cases. I have discussed this in another thread that I had locked because there was no interest in this. The way I came up with works consistently.
I wasnt being confrontational to you, I even apologized that you misunderstood what I was saying. I will say it again too, sorry if what I was saying came across differently then what I said. I have tried your way on multiple phones repeatedly and kept getting force close. That is how I figured this other way that actually works on the new version of the app.

Still no help

no thanks, for someone being so hostile why would anyone want to share with you. you could of searched and easily seen the post I made a month ago about this and that it works but instead you rack up 7 posts boasting something new and being a jerk, as if no one else has ever thought of this. Theres other users that have pm'd me and I've helped them get this working properly on the new app version.
Right on for getting it to work because thats the goal really. But when you see that it doesnt work on all google voice accounts, you might want to rethink your responses.
p.s. good job searching after posting. No I am not gauging demand, I've helped people in pm because of WHY google voice calls a different out number each time normally.

I actually came to this conclusion as I started to reply the last time and have simply ignored him. My apologies. I am new to forum posting and had no idea what was really out there. I was just surprised and allowed my competitive spirit to get the better of me. I just have a hard time understanding why people make uneducated statements off of half reading a post. There will be no more exchanges between me and him.

Sorry kennyglass, not trolling at all. In fact, I took a second to think about the google voice app functionality and this thread. There is a reason Google changed the app from the old version to new version and why it dials random multiple numbers. So, posting in public how to circumvent that might not be the best idea, especially if we want it to continue to function with one number dialing.
You can look that there is no less then 3 threads related to this subject that I posted over the past couple months.
1. How to check compatibility with older version of google voice app to ICS and the SGS3
2. How google voice apps functions and why one gv account dials a single number while others dial multiple numbers (when setup the same with the same versions of apps)
3. How to get it working and the interest of others wanting to know how to do it with the newest version of the app.
You just have to search before starting a new thread.
This isnt where I just saw a random thread in General and said lets mess with the guy, NO, in fact this has been a couple months in the making where I tested, asked questions, tested more, then figured out how to do it. As I said before, it might not be the best idea to post how to do it on the newest version of the app where it works on every gv account (not just some). I have helped many others already on how to do it privately as I am not sure I want google to discover this and stop it. Surely you know that google did this at the pressure of the Cellular providers?
The kind, not so negative people that want help have figured out that they can simply pm me and I'll help. Also, I wasnt flaming, trolling, nor was I even negative. I complimented the OP for figuring out a way that works for him. I even apologized TWICE for any misunderstanding, but I didnt feel to much like sharing publicly after being told what is your problem or to prove it... would you?
maybe people shouldnt read 'tone' on the internet, reading doesnt always translate to tone well..........
and to note the half read posts comment, it is hard to reply to a post that is edited over and over, hence the ORIGINAL quote, to inform the reader what was being commented on.

Thanks for the PM tillithz. The process was simple and easy and it works.

Since, I came up with a way that works 100% of the time without using an OLD version and I am happily helping others get it working as well, I will link to the ORIGINAL thread so that I dont ruffle any feathers here. You can either use the OP'ers method with the old version of the app or visit http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31936430#post31936430 for a current method. enjoy!

Trying to use a different google account, and then using my same name and password didn't work. It said that user already existed. So I was forced to sign in using my main google account. Went through the rest of the steps and everything appears to work, I was able to install GV 0.3 and open it up. Although it doesn't appear to actually function. It won't download my new messages, for instance. Any help?

I was able to make this trick work by installing google voice version 0.4.2.54 along with google voice version 0.3.0. Thanks for the great trick! Its very usefulx for those of us on a legacy plan.

[Q] Any way to get GO Keyboard to use Google Voice typing instead of GO Voice?

Just like the title says, I would like the voice button in GO keyboard to call up Google voice typing instead of the GO speech recognition. I really like the Google input, but I can't stand the default keyboard. I guess a secondary question is whether or not there is another third-party keyboard that has this functionality already? I've got a Galaxy S3 running freeza's ROM.
Thanks.

Shameless bump in the hopes of catching the attention of someone in the know

Am I really asking the impossible here?

Can someone at least suggest a better place to go to try an get an answer to this question?

Last try...

I know I said I wasn't going to keep bumping this, but I really want it and I can't think of anywhere else to ask this question
