Hi to all!
First of all, excuse my poor english. I've installed the voice search and a new keyboard. That works ok, but when I hold the search button, that's enable a Google research, and not call my contact. For exemple, if I hold the serach button and I say "Call John", the Desire shows me Google results of this phrase, not call john. Whats the problem?
Well which version are you on 2.1 or 2.2, because i think that feature of call john is only available in 2.2
And i guess it also depends on in which application you are in if call john makes a google search or a phone call.

But, is possible to "taste" this app without paying? If do not work well, is money lost...
Yes you can make a phone call using voice search. You need to do in the dialer application. Press and hold the search function. When the voice prompt appears , then all you have to say is "call john mobile " and it will dial john on his mobile. It's working on my stock ROM Desire

Wrong, you can voice dial on 2.1 (Sense/Senseless) ROMs if you install voice search.
I use an application called TopVoiceControl that does the dialing for me. With it you can start applications, enable/disable wifi, bluetooth and gps.
I'm with stock 2.1 ROM and installed VoiceSearch apk.

It seems a good app, but the Desire don't have a green button. Then, for start the app, You need to make more than one click (I think those...)

Basically there are a lot of people with the same problem.
When we hold down the magnifying glass and say "Call someone" the person isn't dialled and instead a google search page is displayed. The search terms on this page are "Call someone"
Its almost as if the phone recognized the word call, but ignored its responsibility to actually call the person, and instead just thinks we want to search google for these terms.
I have a hunch it down to some of us installing the android keyboard to obtain voice input, before another method to obtain the feature was realised.
So my question to you suffering with this....
How did you enable voice input on your desire?

I have this problem too its very annoying

Sometimes it works for me, sometimes it ignores me.
ie sometime I say "dial xxx" and it calls them, other it does a google search. Sometimes I say "directions to xxx" and it opens directions/maps - others it google it again.
Unfortunately saying "what can I say" doesn't tell me anything - what I really need is some documentation on the keywords / commands required but I can't find reference to them anywhere.
Anyone know of any?
Thanks, M1
Press the magnifying glass and say nothing and it brings up search. Say something and the same happens.
Fixed
Maybe it has something to do with the local settings? I can choose the language and country > English(Netherlands), but not English(UK/US) or something..
So yes, I can't get it to work either..voice search 2.1 and android keyboard installed..
Have you actually installed the voice app? You are long pressing the mag key? The voice app mike is coming up?

Is Voice Search 2.1 a more recent version than the one pre-installed in the Desire? When I check my applications I get 'Version 140' under Voice Search....
It isn't pre-installed at all on the Desire, or wasn't on mine. The reason it doesn't work is because it isn't installed (in UK)
I'm relatively new to the Epic so maybe I'm just missing something obvious, but I have run into a real issue with voice dialing via BT.
When I hit the talk button on my BT device and say "Call Home" it immediately starts dialing, and in almost every case it's the wrong contact.
Is there some way to get a voice prompt/confirmation before the dialing starts?
Download another voice dialer from the Play store. Top Voice Control used to work well for me.

Thanks for the option, but it's asking me to install a TTS (text to speech) library even though I already have one installed...

Just let it grab one from the Play store for free. It will go through the install process. It should have recognized the one you had though.

Fear of apple has made Samsung remove the Google search function that can search on contacts on the phone. However you can reinstall it yourself. Do a search for. 'universal Google search.'
The universal Google Voice can call and text as well as do lots of other things.
If you mean the Samsung S-Voice it can dial and text with the universal goggle search.
Also you install Google Now but again it can't directly text or call but can bring up the contact with the right app.

I have to correct myself on my last post. Google Now can do mail, phone calls and texts. I was using the wrong word or phrase. I would say text so-and-so and it would give me a list of the person's contact numbers. text or send text both work the same. It can invoke the gmail program simarly.
Saying dial or call so-and so work number makes it call out. You can also state a numeric number.
It seems to not have some rather short attention span for body of the messages and unless you can get it in to the initial search it doesn't ask you what you want to send, which S-Voice does.

To get Google voice to work you must first download it from the play store. Then run it. It will tell you that it can't change your forward numbers. The go on your browser and goto the Google voice website (make sure you hit menu and request desktop site). On the site look for settings. (Somewhere in the top right. Then choose to set up your phone. Choose your carrier and it will give you a number to call. That number will change your forwarding numbers for you. Then in the voice app change settings to show voicemail in call log.

FYI.., mine is an At&t Galaxy S3
I was wondering if it is possible to call to a contact in your phone using voice command. I checked S voice and see that there options to answer/reject calls. But did not find a way to call to a specific contact.
Google voice search would be a help, but again it seems to be down when I dont have a data/wifi connection. Is there an inbuilt facility to do this over voice command ? or if I need to fish in apps store which one do you recommend ?
Thanks in advance ..
AFAIK there is option to dial number with S voice too
Anyway i am using this app, and best part it records your own voice so never fails to recognise. and no need to have data connection.
Just use Google Now... It's built in...

I'm sorry I have to start this thread. I am new at all of this and new to the forum, so I am not allowed to post it in the thread for Skydragon... so, here we go.
I flashed skydragon on my T-mobile Lg G3... i LOVE IT.
Somehow I have google now launcher as an option, I use it on my nexus 5 and really loved the phone call feature where when you search for a location, it gives me the phone number. I thought I would use it but the phone call feature isn't there. It uses the LG phone / calling method.
I tried to uninstall google now launcher to reinstall it to see if it would work. I can't delete.
any ideas for how to get this feature on my phone?
Thanks in advance!
Im not sure what you mean by lg calling feature. When i search for a business it will give the option to call, directions or website. And when i click call it takes me to the dialer and i have to press the call button. What did your nexus 5 do?

Sorry,
I was talking about the google launcher... specifically i was looking for this http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g3/themes-apps/google-dialer-t2824937
I tried this and it worked!!!!! SO SWEET!!!!!!
BTW, what it does is straight from the dialer. I can hit the phone button and enter a contact or a business and get the number for the contact or local places... straight from the dialer, not from a google now search. it seems pretty nominal but if you have it it's pretty awesome.
Ohhhhh ive never seen that, pretty cool
