The S Voice APK was leaked so I decided to download it and try it. There are some downloads that aren't working as they keep giving parse errors so I found one that does work. Some things work and some things don't. I am trying to set up a custom wake up command but I'm guessing either due to some proprietary technology limited to Samsung or just because the APK wasn't meant for our phone, it is giving me a "Unfortunately, S Voice has stopped." error.
Hopefully this can be changed to work with our HOXs better. It does seem to be able to answer my questions so I'm guessing it is able to connect to Samsung's servers. Asked where I was currently located and it brought up a map and I asked about the weather and it brought up a weather forcast even though I uninstalled HTC's weather apps. So there's hope I guess.

Seems to have issues with wifi. If I have it turned on and go into the app, it only lets me do one command. Then I can press on the button but nothing happens. When I have wifi off, it works basically fine; albeit the voice is a little slow. Interestingly, I can turn it off before going in then have S Voice activate my wifi and as long as I don't leave the app, it works fine. As soon as I get out and go back in it stops working properly.
Eh not the greatest but better than what the hox has.

The whole point for something like this and siri to work is
no interaction with the touch screen.

you can set it up to listen for the "hi galaxy" command, or another command of your choosing, it will use more battery, so it's not on by default.
for me though, it crashes every time it tries to complete my query.
Couldn'tget it to work either... Was hoping to try it out.

It works off and on. I had times it worked well with little lag, but also had periods where it would just kick off a network error or would FC. After clearing cache and waiting it would randomly start working again. It really isn't anything special though. It seems like it is just a skinned version of Vlingo. It also looks like it works alot kinda like Siri by using Wolfram Alpha.
Vlingo looks like they are beta testing a newer version of Vlingo assistant that has a wake up command option like S Voice. It only has a few options currently though

i'll try that.
pretty sure the network errors (not force closes) are due to samsung not having the servers ready for public use, and as such are turning them on and off on their end.
on a slightly related topic, samsung really phoned it in on the UI for this app, they basically ripped off apple's setup, if they were having issues with apple legally before, this app and design is not going to help.
i wish samsung would hire some competent and creative developers for their products.
Works fine for me once I uninstalled the stock voice app.

This is the voice to go app for the galaxy note. It works awesome on my phone. It will text, nav, call, open apps, create and edit calendar events, and more. The only bug I get is when I hang up a phone call that was initiated using voice to go it will pop up a window saying that the app quot working.
It doesn't have every feature but it has a bunch and they work pretty reliably.

While everyone's stated that Google Voice for Honeycomb is in the works, I thought I'd try the *.apk hacked together here and it actually worked fine on the TF as well.
On a side note, obviously that'll only work for text messages as calls can't be made or received over data with Google Voice. Anybody ever use GrooVe IP? I'm curious if anybody has used it to do Google Voice over data (on their tablet or even on a phone, just curious how well it works / how the experience is). It sounds very interesting. The tablet could almost be used as a house/speaker phone, over our Google Voice line.

I did a test call to myself from my TF with just Groove IP and it made the call. Couldn't test the quality because it was just me.
I also tested this on my wifi Galaxy Tab and it worked.
Edit: tried a real call on Galaxy tab w a BT headset and it didn't pick up the voice. It looks like others are having luck with it on the TF which is great.
I am going to try this on my Transformer.
Quick Question:
I am going to the Bahamas next week and am taking my Transformer. If I get this to work and have a Wifi connection down there, do you think I will be able to make calls with my GV or would I be charged a roaming fee?
This is awesome. I can send text messages from my TF now.

This should work fine, as the developer himself stated in a thread I was reading about it. I'll try and get a link. As long as you have internet, and a Google Voice account, GrooVe IP should work. Granted, I still haven't bought it, but I'm thinking about it.
Question: If you purchase an app and have two Android devices, it should work for both for the price of one right?
GrooveIP works fine on the Transformer. I just made a couple of calls over my Google Voice using it on the TF.
The only issue I've had with it is that the dialing screen is orientation locked to portrait which makes it look ridiculous (and makes it a bit hard to interact with) when you're in docked mode or otherwise using landscape orientation.

No you don't have to have voice installed. I had a hard time setting up my GrooVe IP and found that you must completely exit from the app and restart for the settings to take effect. My voice username is my email address and when typing it in for some reason the keyboard kept wanting to put an extra space in the address. After I corrected that and exited out I was fine.

So after realizing that my brand new $650 phone did not have bluetooth voice dialing, I decided to do some work.... good news.
HTC did not include the VoiceDialer.apk with the Sensation. Why? No clue!
After getting it here...
http://download615.mediafire.com/m4f6kpd3g06g/mdh1m1x0dzh/VoiceDialer.apk
I was able to prompt my car stereo's Voice Dial button, but the Voice Dial still did not want to work correctly, but... just get ChoiceDialer+ from the market, and all is good.
How did you install the apk I would like to try this before I return the phone. Sorry if this is a stupid question.
Connect your phone to your computer via USB cable, and switch to Disk mode or Mass storage mode or whatever you call it.... drag it onto your phone. Use Astro or Root explorer to navigate to your phones folder, and just open the apk to install, and then restart.
Again, I dont think the voice dialer itself will give you prompts, so get a third party app like ChoiceDialer+
I can't get the voice dialer to repeat what I say for confirmation.
After I press my bluetooth, voice dialer opens up, I say my command, and then a pop-up comes up asking me to press ok or cancel.
Anybody got any luck with this?
I have been using vlingo since launch for bt dialing and works great. The app even has an in car mode and can read texts and emails. Of course you can turn that off as well.
I just use vlingo as my default app when long pressing the search button. So upon a long press, vlingo launches and listens via bluetooth and you can say your command from searching whatever to navigate to wherever to call whomever in your address book. Try it out, it's free. You can always uninstall if you do not like the functionality.
Is there an option for me to press the button on my bluetooth to trigger the app? It is illegal to use the phone while driving up here in Canada.
Make sure voicedialer.apk is installed, and then install a third party voice dialer like Vlingo or Choice Handsfree. You need that voicedialer.apk installed to trigger the prompt when you press the Bluetooth button on your headset... When you press it, it should bring up a prompt asking you which program you'd like to use.
Sent from my HTC Sensation 4G using XDA App
my voicedialer Force closed
after i installed choice dialer, i got the same menu still.
I press my bluetooth, say something, and then on my phone screen, it gives me a prompt as to what to do (in this case, who to call).
I don't want to touch my phone while driving.
The voicedialer app worked perfectly fine with my nexus one with the same bluetooth headset, no idea why it's not working on my sensation.
I think HTC needs to do something about this. I just bought the Sensation yesterday and didn't realize this issue till this morning. I am using the BlueAnt Q2. Call recognition works fine. But using the voice commands on the Q2 is a bust cause the device is no compatible. WTF.

I have the same situation, Q2, Sensation, hopefully a rooted ROM will fix this issue.

I have a HTC Desire and have long been frustrated at its inability to voice dial via bluetooth. Last week I was annoyed by HTC's attitude to a Gingerbread update for the Desire, so I took the plunge and rooted my phone, installing Cyanogen mod 7.
Wonderful change, it's like having a new phone! One bonus is that, just today I decided to try voice dialling in my car, and it works perfectly! Paired the phone with my Alpine car radio, pressed the phone button on the radio and up came the message 'voice dialling', I said 'call John' and a female voice replied 'calling John' and there I was speaking, totally handsfree. Miraculous I thought, why couldn't HTC manage that?
So, all credit to Cyanogen for a superb update to my phone and I'll be donating, although it's free.
Same issues here. HTC seems to have rushed this one out the door. Besides the lack of BT voice dialing, I'm seeing hangs/crashes in the phone dialer app, and rapid battery drain when playing games. I wish there was a way to turn off Sense; it really adds nothing to the Android experience and usually gets in the way.
installs fine but keeps force closing and does not work with bt and no confirmation prompts. found vlingo but it does not work with sensation.in fact,the app will lock your phone and you will have to restore phone if you can even manage to get it installed in first place. so please stop telling people to use this app. you should be ashamed of yourself.

I've been reading through the threads and have been most interested in voice dialing. I had it on my HD2 and it was quite useful as I use a bluetooth headset as my primary means of talking on the phone. I just hate holding the phone up to my head. In any case, voice dialing IS possible without using BT. I'm sure most of you know this as all you have to do is hold the search button on the phone for a second to get a voice command prompt pop up where you can simply say "call <contact name>" or "dial <phone number>" and it will do as told. I have no modifications on my phone, it is as stock as stock can come.
With my headsets, it used to be where I held the activate button for a moment, a tone would play in my ear, and a voice would say "say a command". Keep in mind, that was on my HD2. The sensation doesn't come with BT voice dialing by default, it seems, and it does appear that there are work-arounds to it like the apk listed above. In fact, I've seen some relatively talented people figure out how to make things work, that weren't supposed to work in the first place. Also keep in mind that voice dialing and other functions are software based, and simply writing the proper code can overcome pretty much anything.
With that being said, thefattexan, I've seen you call other posters and responders liars, and in this thread alone, you've told someone that they're "full of crap". In all honesty, those comments are not appreciated, and at least one thread was closed by a moderator because of attacks like that.
Let me submit to you, that just because you've never seen or heard of something, does not mean that it doesn't exist. Simply because you could not make it work, does not mean that someone else wasn't able to. Calling someone a liar based only on your own experiences is pretty much out of line, and your behavior is somewhat disgraceful. So I am asking you nicely, to please refrain from that sort of behavior. Maybe if someone says they can do something that you are not able to, rather than call them a liar, ask them how they accomplished it and you may learn something in the bargain. Obviously, they tried something that you didn't, and voila. Otherwise, don't say anything, because carrying on like you do will only result in the moderators banning you.
for those that agree, click the thanks button and show the love.
I have had the same problems with the voice dialer apk. It installs just fine but it force closes when trying to use from the bluetooth headset.
I tried vlingo and some other apps but they are too complicated and usually require some interaction with the phone.
I want it to work just like my Thunderbolt. When my phone is in my pocket I can press the bluetooth call button and be prompted to speak now. The say "call John" and then prompted, "calling john" and the phone dials the number. Very simple and easy to work without any interaction.

And your great additions to this community? Just badmouthing everyone that does not share your view. Name calling really got you where you are today /sarcasm.
I do not know what your problem is and why you resort to name calling literally everytime you post.
Back to topic and to simply replying to you. I have been the early adopters of vlingo. I even paid for the app when it was first released. I have to say I did indeed install this via market when I got the phone because a week ago the in car setting kept fc'ing on me and I uninstalled and reinstalled the version I found in the market.
The funny thing is I tried looking again on the market and I do see that it is marked incompatible with the Sensation like you said, but I did uninstall the app and reinstalled fresh from the market and not use any restores.
I am done sparring with words with you and you can keep calling me and every one else here names....I don't know maybe you were bullied as a child, not given enough attention as a child, or maybe you found out that the Easter Bunny is a myth *gasp*....

Since I got my phone on release day and I haven't been able to use it to make calls in my 2012 mazdaspeed3. My other phones have worked fine so I thought I needed a software update on my radio. Well everything is up to date and that didn't fix it.
The problem is when I make or receive a phone call the Bluetooth will connect and disconnect every 5-10 seconds. This makes it impossible to talk on the phone.
So I have tried stock roms, sense based roms, and all the CM based roms and they all did the same thing. Yesterday I was trying to figure it out so I sat in my car in the garage and the phone was in a constant connect disconnect loop. During this time I was disabling apps and services hoping to stop it when all of a sudden I turned off WiFi and it stopped. I then called my wife and had a 10 min conversation with no problems. So I now run a tasker profile that when Bluetooth connects it turns off WiFi so I can make calls. The problem is I have a nexus 7 dash mounted and I use the WiFi hotspot to run apps.
So after all that, does this sound like a hardware issue or a software issue? Should I return my phone for an exchange? Thanks for the help

Have you tried clearing data and cache in settings?
the Red Viper ROM
I am having the same issue.
It is connecting and disconnecting repeatedly, and it is SUPER annoying because it essentially renders my pebble watch useless.
For a while i was using the Automatic Link (car link) and was getting 'bluetooth share has stopped' errors, but found that when I stopped using the Automatic app it helped a little bit (stopped giving me the 'share has stopped' error), but it still connects and disconnects repeatedly.
The weirdest thing about this is that when I first got this phone I wasn't having this problem, everything was working fine for the first month or so, but it seems to keep getting worse.
I have tried wiping cache, dalvik, fixing permissions, etc. and have not had any luck, but I don't want to do a complete wipe of all my data and lose my text messages, etc. unless ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, since there are images and things in there that I continually refer to for work, and I have not found that titanium backup restores them very reliably.
Has anybody had any luck with this issue? Could it be a defective device? It seems to me like it should be a software problem because it is not something I was having problems with from the start...
I am very frustrated with this, even more so because I love this phone so much. I have never had a phone that I liked as much as this one, usually the first thing I do is install an AOSP rom, but I even like Sense 6 in some ways. With Nova Launcher's 'OK Google' hotword support this phone is a dream come true... if only the bluetooth worked.

I am having the same issue.
It is connecting and disconnecting repeatedly, and it is SUPER annoying because it essentially renders my pebble watch useless.
For a while i was using the Automatic Link (car link) and was getting 'bluetooth share has stopped' errors, but found that when I stopped using the Automatic app it helped a little bit (stopped giving me the 'share has stopped' error), but it still connects and disconnects repeatedly.
The weirdest thing about this is that when I first got this phone I wasn't having this problem, everything was working fine for the first month or so, but it seems to keep getting worse.
I have tried wiping cache, dalvik, fixing permissions, etc. and have not had any luck, but I don't want to do a complete wipe of all my data and lose my text messages, etc. unless ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, since there are images and things in there that I continually refer to for work, and I have not found that titanium backup restores them very reliably.

Sounds like the common theme may be root for whatever reason. I assume when you first had the phone and it worked that you were not rooted? Possible issue?

you need to let HTC backup app take care of backing up your texts etc...what if you dropped the phone in the toilet tonight or got pushed into a pool?
this app is free...will backup your stuff daily or on demand and will restore email accounts/texts/desktop/apps/blinkfeed settings etc.

install that, backup to the cloud (uses Google drive) and then continue troubleshooting without fear of losing stuff.

I was very keen to try this feature, so I updated the Google Search app to the latest one (3.5.14). Sadly, the feature has not yet provided to my google account, and so I wait.
But funny things happened this morning after I flash the developer version of Android L to my Nexus 5. There was an screen prompting me to say "OK Google" 3 times to activate Google Now on any screen. There were 3 options in my Google Now Voice settings: enable it from home screen, any screen, and lock screen.
I was indeed very surprised and delightful, however such a thing only last 3 minutes. It suddenly stopped. As for now I speak, 2 of those 3 options in voice settings are gone. However there is still an option to enable Audio History (image attached).
I'm guessing this is because the OK Google on any screen is location based and currently only works on several countries picked by Google itself. If that's the case I'm very certain the Americans will be the first. Can someone clarify?

It isn't regional. Its random Google Accounts.
I'm not sure, I'm in America and I had it working before and now it's not. Weird. I just tried again and I can't get it working. Maybe something on Google's end? I'm lost, too.

Well it's good to know it's not merely my fault. At first I began to think my voice is not qualified for activating Google Now lol.
It seems that currently we can only wait, let me know if yours works again

I had the same issue. I was on Android L and after about a day of using it, the options appeared. The text said "when screen is on OR charging" so I was curious to see if we could get always listening while charging. I put it on the charger and the options disappeared and never came back. I'm back on 4.4.4 and I still don't see it.
It's definitely server sider on Google's end. I too had it for a little bit, but it is now gone as well. Google is deploying it per account like they do with anything so it's not fully available yet and ready for use. Expect to see it enabled over the next few weeks.
There's already a fix! http://www.reddit.com/r/Nexus5/comments/29qya0/if_you_do_not_have_ok_google_everywhere_on_your/
Try it on, I got it working (for now, at least)

I'm having a weird issue that I haven't been able to find in any searches: when using Assistant to text (or call) it takes a very long time to process, almost a full minute before it reads the message back and asks if I want to send it. Using Android Auto, it just times out and goes back to playing music. It works just fine if I swipe up from the corners, but Assistant in Maps and Android Auto barely works.
This happens to me when I have bad connection, or when I drive close enough to my gym where it tries to auto connect to the wifi.

Unfortunately connection didn't seem to make a difference. Also, other functions work fine. I can ask questions and get immediate answers, broadcasting to home works fine (which you'd think would be a more intensive task). I've cleared cache/data for the Google app without any change. It's crazy weird and I haven't heard anything else like it.

Are you using the OpenGapps beta or Android 10? I wonder if this is an issue on Android 9 too... Sorry I'm not really sure.

I'm bone stock. I'm on the beta for the Google app. I'll opt out of that and see if it makes a different. I also wonder if it's a server-side issue that's affecting so few people they don't really know it's happening. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
