My Google voice search won't initialize first time. This was happening on a fresh install after wipe of cm10 official, I then wiped and installed cvd nibbles based on cm10.
It is exactly the same. Whether on Google voice search, or Google voice search on maps. The first attempt will never initialize, then if I hit back, and voice search a second time, it always works.
Has anyone had this issue or have any idea how to fix it?

One thing I thought I'd add is that the voice dialer does not have this issue though.

i've been using cm7 since rc2, and i have been having this problem since. my google voice search does not seem to work at time. the microphone would show up but would not take in my speech. the same problem happen when i try voice to text.
it would randomly work but not all the time. anyone else have the same problem?
Ever since I started usin CM7. It's frustrating huh?
Has there been any fix for this? I have been on cm7 for months, and have also tried miui (which is based on cm7) and my voice search only works 1/2 the time. Completely frustrating...
This is the closest answer I've been able to find as to why it happens.

Am I missing something or does the phone really not have "Voice Dialer" on it? That seems kindof nuts?
Not nuts - more Tmo/HTC weirdness

***edit 6-23-11
There are mixed reports of Voice Dialer fc'ing when trying to call. The current Voice Search will actually directly dial for me now so I'd go with that or Vlingo seems to be popular if VDialer isn't working.

Excellent, thanks. I copied the one from my Vibrant and it would not install. I thought maybe it was not compatible. Yours is, thanks again.

Thanks Gorilla, this worked for my car home
Edit: follow up, seems to force-close when actually trying to dial?

See Voice Dialer works for me but I can't get the Voice search to actually call any of my contacts, it just searches for numbers on google
I have an app called vlingo that has voice controlled everything. Don't remember if it's t-mobile specific though

I'm getting the same FC on the Voice Dialer app. Vlingo actually seems to work very well. What will change when we're rooted, what will make it work then, why does it not, now?

There was an update to Voice Search a day ago maybe that changed something because Dialer was working for me. The first time I used Voice Search it tried to search google but after making sure my pronunciations were better it worked the same as Voice Dialer was - note that the way Voice Dialer was working was not the same as on my N1 - no calls are getting initiated. Every time it prompts me to do what it thinks I said. I'm not sure if that's cuz it's broken or because it has learned what to expect yet.
Weirdness - just tried VSearch and it direct dials and everything - no need for voice dialer.

When we're rooted (bootloader unlocked) there is a chance that whatever dependency failure is occurring can be resolved in a modded htc s4g stock rom or we can just load up cm7 or hopefully a stock release (my preference).

New question the about Voice Search. Will it look up phone contacts? I don't save my contacts to Google, just sync with Outlook on my phone.

is there a app that I can use to make the phone hear commands through my Jawbone headset?
I just want to be able to call someone while driving by pressing the voice command button on my headset...
everything else works but the voice command... I can redial with a couple button presses of the headset, answer and hangup calls, ect.
the apk posted works but not through the headset. it hears you from the phone's microphone... not very functional when driving.
plus Google's version that's included in the phone has better speech recognition.
why didn't HTC include this function?
It isn't working as well as I thought it would. After I speak, it pops up a menu and asks me who I want to call. Isn't the idea not to use the phone while driving? No idea why it is not recognizing the speech.

There are many many many guides on this. Look in android development.
I installed CM10 over the weekend, and discovered a few things need setting up.
One thing was my screen started to flicker and extensive searching found the fix... check the Disable HW Overlay under developer settings.
Now I received a voice mail, but get an error that there is no voicemail number setup, and since it's my first voicemail, I have never bothered to remember it. Anyone know what it is? I have searched the web but no luck so far.
So how about any other settings "Land Mines" need setup in CM10?

You can call your own number, or dial *86, for vm
Hi, I am currently using the latest version of google map and navigation, running PA hackfest Build 5 as the rom.
I noticed that the text to speech engine is updated, the voice is very different in google now.
However I cannot use that voice for navigation somehow. Actually, I used it for a while like 2-3 trips, then it just suddenly reverts to the old robotic girl voice, which is very disappointing.
I tried to change it in language&input > tts input, however the setting will not stick, whenever i exit the setting page, it reverts back to pico TTS.
Is there a way to force all my TTS use google TTS instead of pico TTS?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Delete pico in Titanium Backup maybe?

Pico was never restored, and Google track won't even let me select pot OK inside, its just grayed out

Any ideas why? I'm on jelly bean. It will tell me the lefts and rights, but no street names. I've toggled between the Samsung and Google TTS things and no fix.
It works fine on my nexus 7. It works fine on my girlfriends iPhone and that just pisses me off lol
any ideas? Uninstalled updates and still no go. I use nav every day and the streets names are very helpful to avoid looking at the phone.
anybody??

I am having the same issue. There seems to be a little bit of people reporting it online, but haven't found a solution yet. It seems like it is an issue with Google's TTS engine. Hopefully there is a maps update soon that resolves this.

Few things I have tried, and their results:
1. Cleared Search cache -> Uninstalled Search updates -> Restarted phone
-No change except no longer have Google Now
2. Updated Search back again
3. Cleared Maps cache -> Uninstalled Maps updates -> Restarted phone
-Maps speaks street names, but with the old scary robot voice
4. Updated Maps back again
-Maps stops speaking street names, but keeps scary robot lady voice.
5. Cleared Maps cache again -> restarted phone again
-Maps speaks street names again, but the scary robot lady voice still won't go away.
Clear Maps data and it will resolve the problem. I've noticed this happens every time I fix permissions in Recovery.

Just tried this, and I still have the scary robot voice person. It looks like I have kept street names in the voice navigation though, at least.

I tried everything above and still no go. I have flashed a lot of roms and even though I was back to stock JB, still had the issue. So, I backed up and ODIN'ed back to stock ICS, OTA'ed to JB, and now its working again. Who knows what file was screwed up. Then I unlocked bootloader and rooted, still working.

When I select the Text-to-speech output I only have Samsung TTS as an option?
I found that by formatting, going back to stock, and clean flashing CM10.1 that everything is resolved.
