[Q] text to speech problem - AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL

hi all,
I'm using sandstorm v2.3, and I can't get any text to speech apps to load. I go to check the text to speech output and get: "process com.android.settings has stopped."
I've installed several tts engines, but I can't open them either. I get the "Unfortunately, xxx app has stopped"
I can use google maps with navigation and voice, but every time I try to load "Zombies Run," the app crashes. It also has tried to get me to install a tts engine, but each time it won't work.
Engines I've tried so far: espeak, speach synthesis, IVONA, SVOX, and talkadroid lite.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
TIA,
Reko

Wow,you found a bug in my ROM,I get fc too..I'll check the logcat report sometime later.My ROM is outdated though.

Voice Search Crashing

On a fresh install of MoDaCo ROM. Voice search crashes every time I launch it.
Anyone else having this issue? process com.google.android.voicsearch stopped. And I cant find Voice Search on the market. Can someone pull this apk out?
See this thread for the fix: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=582549

Speechsynthesis

OK, so it might be me but what does installing this to my HTC Desire do?
Also, I've got google maps installed and have downloaded "Nav Launcher" for it to try and get the spoken nav working, but it's greyed out... I've seen the video of the guy speaking an address and google maps then navigates to it... I'm all confused
It's the engine for converting text to speech.
I installed this from the market and now my navigation voice isn't working.

Apps requiring a microphone?

Now that we see that an external microphone will work on the Fire, we can start testing apps that require a mic. I'm not a Google Voice or Skype user, so someone with those accounts needs to try them on the Fire.
I did install Vlingo, a speech-to-text app, and tried it. When I speak into it, I get the message "An unexpected server error occurred. Please try again." I'm connecting through the same wifi network that my smartphone is, and Vlingo is working fine on the phone. I can't see why it doesnt work on the Fire...
Now I just installed a speech-to-text app called (appropriately) Speech To Text. When I try it, I get "Runtime Error - No Activity found to handle Intent { act=android.speech.action.RECOGNIZE_SPEECH (has extras)}", with a button to End Application.
Both probally need google search and voice search to work. voice search is the backbone for most of the speech recognition apps out there, hence the no activity error.

I'm sure you're right. Up to now I haven't seen the need to root because I could live without the Google apps on it, but now I may want to.
Google Voice Search (com.google.android.voicesearch-1.apk) installed for me but gives an Audio Problem error and Google Search (GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk) doesn't want to install. Looks like there's a little more work to be done so you might not want to root just yet if this is all you were going to do.

Thanks for the heads up. At this point, that would be the only reason I would root, but if it won't work, I'll wait.

[Q] [Solved] Voice guidance problem in Google Maps Navigation

I have problem with voice guidance of Google navigation. I have tested it with 2 different text-to-speech outputs. First is Google Text-to-speech Engine(English) and second is SVOX TTS(Finnish). Navigation works normally when TTS output and phone's default language are different. Of course voice guidance in this case is not working. When both languages are same(like they should) I can heard guidance, but then applicaton stops immediately after voice guidance starts.
Error message says: "Unfortunately, Maps has stopped."
Does anyone have same problem? Solution for this problem?
I am using HTC Sensation stock ICS (4.0.3) and Sense 3.6
Google maps version 6.4.0 (6.3.0 had same problem)

Ok here is szihs version ported to non_rooted phone. The application seems to have been changed a bit since the previous version. I didn't test it much, but it seems to work correctly. If you have ownhere's version installed you need to uninstall it first.

[Q] DKv4 - Google TTS problem

I have flashed DKv4 two days ago. Everithing is OK, except some minor issues. However when I open "Text-to-speech output" settings, I find the message: google text-to-speech engine has stopped. The same message appears when I open Maps, Alarmdroid, other.http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/frown.gif
I read in the DKv4 thread that others have the same problem and that google TTS may be uninstalled to avoid it.
I would like to ask whether uninstalling google TTS can affect other voice functions. Can replace it for another TTS apk? Or simply download a new version of google TTS and reinstall it?http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/confused.gif
Thanks
And a particular acknowledgment to the terrific work of Nasif!http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
Giap
