Hello all!
I'm trying to get the old google voice search to work on my Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (n9005). Here's a link to the app in question.
Edit: I'm apparently not allowed to post links since I'm a relatively new member. If you search for "Voice Search" on Google Play, you'll see it.
I dislike the new google voice search and I'd prefer to revert to this. Sadly, even though I did manage to successfully install the app after rooting and removing the newer version, I can't get the voice commands to work. I've done a number of google searches on the subject and I can't find anything helpful. I already have the language set to US English.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone:
I recently purchased the HTC One X from At&t and am having an issue with the gps. When I use google maps I have no problems. My issue is when for instance type the name of a store in google. The listing shows up and then there is a tab that says "diections." When i click on "Directions," i do not get the choice of doing so with maps or navigation. So after I do this, "my location" is never pulled and I cannot get the exact directions.
Is anyone else having this issue?
Thanks for all of the help.

Because google search wasn't designed for that. That will require html 5 and user permission. Just use google maps to search if you want directions.or you can try bing search on the browser. Last time I tried, it can take GPS locations and give out direction in the browser.

I have requested this thread be moved to Q&A.
On another not, Foxbob121, on my last phone, when i clicked on directions a screen popped up asking me if i wanted to get the directions from google maps or use the att option. This does not happen on this phone. Any ideas?
Different phones have different implementations. Since Apple owns most of these patents, HTC has to remove (or work around) a lot of features previously existed (HTC lost a law suit last year to Apple).
I just cannot seem to figure this out..
I cannot get voice input to work on anything other than the S Voice program that came pre-installed on my phone.
I would like to use it when I text but the stock keyboard does not seem to have the microphone icon on it anymore. Now before you jump and say "I got this" I already know about the hold the settings icon in the lower left and choose the microphone. Only when I do it I dont get 4 icons, I only get 3 and the microphone isnt one of them.
I installed SKYVI from the Play Store and it tells me that my device does not support voice input. Well clearly it does, S Voice works so I checked all my settings but cannot get it working anyplace else. Same thing with the Swiftkey keyboard... it has a microphone icon but when pressed, nothing happens.
This is an Odin rooted stock ROM, nothing special about it at all. Anyone else ever see this before?
Does it work with Google Now? Have you tried the new Swype beta http://beta.swype.com/? This works for me but my not my keyboard of choice, messageease

I dont know what Google Now is.. didnt see any mention of it in the Play store..
I did find this out though.. a lot of these voice apps use Google's "Voice Search" app. The Play store says I have it installed but when I search my phone I dont see it. The "My Android Apps" section of the Play store also says I have it installed on my device, and also mentions its a system app of some kind. But I dont have it, and cant install it from the Play store because its "already installed". I think if I can find the APK for this program, I can probably solve my problem? Anyone have a copy or know where I can get it?
FIXED!

I went online and did some searches away from XDA and found out what Google Now is.. looks pretty slick..
But I also managed to fix my voice input problem. Reading about Google Now got me to thinking.. I opened Root Explorer and went in to System/Apps and there was an APK of something called VoiceSearchStub.apk .. it had a different icon than I was expecting but I went ahead and installed it. I now have a Voice Search icon installed and the voice input on the keyboard now works. But for the life of me I do not know why it was not there in the first place!
I've searched extensively on this site and the two answers I got were to uninstall and reinstall Google search and or update from Google play. Originally I had the Google has stopped functioning message which was fixed by reinstalling but now wheneveri try to use the voice search it looks like it's registering my voice but then it says trap to use the micro phone. I havea Samsung galaxy tab2 7.0 p3113 with clockwork recovery and PAC ROM. I am fairly new to android but i know my way around PC. Any suggestions and or fixes would be much appreciated. thank you very much
I recently updated my phone to 4.4.3
When I did I noticed that I am not having problems using the Google Search Widget on the home page and within Google Now. When I try to search for something with the keyboard I get a message that says cant load search results. The odd thing is that if I search for the same thing by voice it works just fine. Google Search within Chrome will work fine too with voice or keyboard.
I thought this was an issue with 4.4.3 so I went back to 4.4.2 and same problem! I don't know whats going on this just started for me today. If I clear the data for Google Search it seems to fix it temporarily but it always come back.
Others seem to be having this problem. There are several posts at the bottom from today: https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=65976
Here is a screenshot of the error:

Anyone know of a fix?

I have the same issue, just started happening. The problem only affects the Google search widget and search for web. The image, video, etc searches all work.
I think it's pretty wide-spread. I've got 4 devices, some on 4.4.3 and some on 4.4.2 and its occurring on all of them.
There's a pretty long thread on Google Groups here:
Apparently they are aware of the issue and are working on a fix.

Clearing the data on the Google Search App fixes the issue for one search but after I search again it says the same thing. Also images, news, videos and all that other stuff works fine its just web that is broken.
I have been having the same issue for the last 2 days.
After clearing the cache from "Google Search, Google Play and Google Now" I turned and updated each app one by one.
I have discovered that with Google Now DEACTIVATED Search works fine on all my devices.
Samsung S4
Samsung Pro 8.4
Samsung Note 3
Hope this helps.
