Could one of you kind evo users post up the apk for the rest of the android community? Thanks!

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.

Any application that can read SMS' out loud (possibly through a bluetooth device?)??

I wanted an application that could do this but all I could find was the one from blueAnt which only works with their specific bluetooth device...

You could use Tasker and use this profile - price looks high but it's VERY powerful once you know what you're doing.
Comes with a trial mode for around seven days.

+1 for Tasker. Brilliant app.
I have my 'in car' profile set to read texts - on text receipt it pauses the music player, then reads the senders contact name, and then the body of the text. Awesome.

i was planning on getting the blueant Q1 (just found it for $25). are you saying it won't work with handcent in reading a txt message?
edit: forget it...answered my own question by going to their site. "Hear text messages read aloud on your Q1 when connected to an Android device with our Android application."

What about the vlingo application. It has an email and sms reader that reads the message out loud when activated, but I haven't managed to get it to read the message through the Bluetooth headset

Wondering why SayMyName hasn't been mentioned yet... works fantastic even with caller names, mail, Twitter etc.

SMS Speak
Just stumbled across this thread looking for something else. But thought I'd chime in. I use SMS Speak (the paid one, not the free one - two different companies/products), and it works great. I can get incoming texts and reply, all orally. I'm curious about the other products mentioned, though...

I would also love this... I think the ball is in googles court on this one and I'm very sad about it.. Does hangouts offer the option for client support? If not then we will have to wait for an official release from Google which will probably never happen
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

Whenever I download Android Wear, I no longer get notifications for Hangouts at all. Using a Galaxy S6 Edge+

I will take a look at it. Google does not open api for it, so there won't be standalone app. Is it enough if you can send messages to your friends? And no, I'm not talking about replying to a notification. You can send new message when you want to

With 3G it doesn't really feel like you're tethered. What is a tease though is you know your watch is capable of acquiring all the messages for both hangouts and Whatsapp bc if you hit "View more" it downloads the entire conversation. If only you could cache that and re-open it at a later time...even that would be a huge improvement. If only I had more time to tinker :crying:

Agreed, it seems like they engineered a solution but didn't think it necessary to provide it as a feature.
Perhaps our resident S2 developer tipztv could use this to hack a solution for standalone hangouts and whatsapp too!

I never had the beta. I was too late to register.
However, there are a lot of UI changes when compared with the leaked 1.5 version. ?
And the Bluetooth app installations in the watch are possessed much faster, although they are still slow as hell.

All I see is the Gear Fit app anything on the S2?

Yes... Here

YES - in app store there is the old beta. UNFORTUNATELY the app has the same error that the last beta had (I have reported 3 weeks ago to the developers): when you call in S Health a training with recorded route the app hangs/crashes.
The same thing happens with other users or only with my iPhone SE?

i had installed on iphone 6 plus IOS 10.2
but as I said, unfortunateley, same that nothing is changed. only read whatsapp/sms, whatsapp no pictures, no contacts, no calls, no maps....

just downloaded the official app : works like a charm ! I got an iPhone SE (iOs 10) and a Gear S2. Here are the step needed :
- remove the leaked app from both your phone and your itunes library
- make forget the watch in the bluetooth settings of the iPhone
- reset the watch to factory settings
After the reboot of the watch, you just need to start the app and link them again. If this doesn't work, check the firmware of the watch, must be the last one.

I only reseted the watch. Nothing else.
Basically I installed the official version, and reseted the watch. Only then I uninstalled the leaked version. But there was a few minutes with both the official and the leaked versions installed and everything was working as it is now.
Ah, and I didn't make the phone forget the watch in the Bluetooth settings. Just left it there.

Awesome thanks! It works for both my wife's and my watch! Funny thing is we had been Samsung galaxy people for 7+ years and just switched to an iPhone two days ago. I run a business and the Samsung just couldn't hang with me and my business. I was extremely bombed because I loved my watch and so did my wife and thought we were going to have to go purchase Apple Watch is. But this saves me! Thanks

S-voice appears on Galaxy Store

Hi,
If you open Galaxy App Store, you will see that yesterday, samsung has updated S-Voice.
Did you guys see it?
It may be a start for Bixby Voice?

I updated but it didn't help Bixby.

Same here.
Which means we with T-Mobile devices don't get to use voice commands to answer or reject calls. One of my favorite features has been left out! WTF?!

Really REALLY not happy here... I use S-Voice CONSTANTLY.... I have (or had) the ICON on my desktop front and center... for years. Seriously use it 4 or 5 times a day to directions, to make calls, to make appointments. WTF ????
However... and this is the wierd part... It WAS on the phone until the latest update. I bought the phone Saturday.... migrated with switch from my S5... USED S-Voice Saturday evening... noticed an update had been postponed... did the update.... then S-Voice was gone. Again... I repeat... WTF????

I may be dead wrong and talking out of my a** here, but isn't Bixby supposed to replace S voice?

I believe that is what Samsung intends to do.

No S-Voice on Galaxy S-8+ which affects Gear Neo smart watch
I noticed that when I went to reply to a text on my smart watch, a Gear S2 NEO, there was no option to voice text, in fact S-Voice is no longer there at all. I could not find in the Galaxy Store or Play Store. This is a very valued feature on the smart watches to answer your text messages vs templates or emoticons. Please let me know if there are any other options or please bring it back!

I went to the previous link and a message appeared saying I could not download. I went to apk mirror and found this
