Has anyone tried to apply the video calling over 3G fix yet? I believe that the fix was for Talk 1.3, but it seems that the version on the Galaxy Nexus is running 4.0.1.
I'm able to start a video call from the contacts screen, but I can't initiate one from the chat or when I receive a call.

It works fine for me.
Seeing as how it's merely an entry into gservices.db I don't see how it's version specific unless the newer version doesn't adhere to the old way to doing things. Fortunately it's an easy test and it appears to operate in the exact same manner.
That's great to hear. I left my laptop at my girlfriend's apartment and I won't be able to get it back to very until the weekend. I'll definitely post a verification once I get the laptop back and rooted.
Out of curiousity, did you input the string manually or use one of the apps available in the market?

It's very easy to do manually, no reason to try to rely on some app Before you make any changes I'd suggest backing up gservices.db in case it gets hosed somehow.
Code:
Pull /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db
Edit with sqlite3 (part of the SDK): sqlite3 gservices.db
insert into overrides (name, value) VALUES ('gtalk_vc_wifi_only', 'false');
ctrl-c to break
Push gservices.db back to the device and reboot
If you don't have an insecure boot image (I don't use one) you can use the sd card to stage for the pull and the push (you'll need to be root).
Code:
adb shell
$ su
# cp /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db /mnt/sdcard/gservices.db
Exit the shell or use a second console to adb pull /mnt/sdcard/gservices.db
sqlite3 gservices.db
insert into overrides (name, value) VALUES ('gtalk_vc_wifi_only', 'false');
ctrl-c
adb push gservices.db /mnt/sdcard/gservices.db
# cat /mnt/sdcard/gservices.db > /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db
# reboot
Just verified that the process of adding the wifi false value does indeed work. Voice calls can be initiated and received over a 3g data network.
I did run into a couple of issues during the process though:
For starters, I'm using a Galaxy Nexus 4.0.1 stock (google) build, XXKK6 radio.
1. I was unable to pull /data/data/com.google.android.gsf/databases/gservices.db through adb. I believe it has something to do with the current version of Superuser not correctly granting root access to adb shell. The workaround I used for this was using a root explorer on the phone and using the app to copy and paste into /mnt/sdcard/gservices.db
2. After pushing gservices.db back into the /data/... folder and rebooting, I was only able to start the video calls. It took another reboot before notifications popped up that I was receiving calls.
This may be due to me having my gmail open on my laptop web browser at the same time, however. I closed it before the second reboot completed. I believe it may have something to do with Google Talk routing the video call to the PC/Web browser client before going to the mobile client, but that is just speculation.
I have a Taiwan model H815, rooted using the injection method. I'm trying to use a root shell command in a Tasker profile task to enable/disable mobile data in Tasker ("svc data enable/disable"). The command appears to execute, and a message pops up saying "Tasker has been granted superuser permissions for an interactive shell", but the command does not take effect - i.e. mobile data is not enabled/disabled.
I have selected the Root option in the Tasker task definition. I have also run the same shell commands in terminal emulator with root, and they were successful. It's just Tasker that isn't executing them properly.
Any ideas?

This is odd/annoying - I removed and re-installed Tasker (I purchased it from the Amazon app store), and the re-installed version didn't have this problem, BUT it did have another problem that the previous version didn't - i.e. it does not respond to any Bluetooth-related events (e.g. Bluetooth Status, Bluetooth Connected...). The previous version that I had installed (which I restored from a Titanium Backup) had no problem responding to Bluetooth events but was unable to execute my root shell command.
The version I now have installed (from Amazon) is 4.7m. Can anyone else running this version confirm whether it responds to Bluetooth events on Lollipop?
I'm using the same command through Tasker but having Tasker run it through Secure Settings. It works fine. My mobile data is disabled and enabled.

LG G4 811 with stock rom 5.1 on T mobile.
I think I've found the problem. I purchased Tasker from the Amazon app store. It turns out that the version on the Amazon app store is a pirate copy, but despite being informed about this by a number of people it is still available. I have now purchased a copy from the Google Play Store and I no longer have the problem.
Now I need to see if I can get a refund from Amazon.
I have discovered a way to disable and replace Alexa with the Google Assistant through what you could call a 'privilege escalation.' I don't know anything about the Fire TV so I don't know if you can hook it up to a PC and run ADB commands to it. Can you even download Google apps (sorry if this sounds stupid)?
Anyways, I need some testers to see how widespread this is. In android there is a permission set called WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS. Basically you can create an app with that said permission in it's manifest. Doing so allows the app to be escalated to a 'root user' in order to edit, remove and or manipulate a set of settings Android called Settings.Secure. It is set to a 'root user' but the user is ONLY root in three tiers explained here. In this set of settings are three tiers: System, Secure and Global. The app, or anyone with access to ADB, can run a command to add, remove or change the values of some of these settings.
An app currently exists and is available on the Play Store, that edits these settings; Settings Database Editor. I need you to do the following steps for me please and thank you:
1. Download, install the app, but don't edit anything yet.
2. Hook the device up to your PC and open an ADB window.
3. Type and hit enter when done:
Code:
adb shell pm grant by4a.setedit22 android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
4. Go back to the Settings Database Editor app and tap on the Secure tab.
4. Locate the following three lines, if they exist:
Code:
"alexa_enabled"
"assistant"
"voice_interaction_service"
"voice_recognition_service"
5. Go back to the ADB window. Type each of the commands below, hitting enter after each one. You won't see any reply or messages if the commands are successful:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure assistant com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/com.google.android.voiceinteraction.GsaVoiceInteractionService
adb shell settings put secure voice_interaction_service com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/com.google.android.voiceinteraction.GsaVoiceInteractionService
adb shell settings put secure voice_recognition_service com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/com.google.android.voicesearch.serviceapi.GoogleRecognitionService
adb shell settings put secure alexa_enabled 0
If the last command doesn't work, go to the Settings Database Editor app and tap on secure tab. Locate the alexa_enabled setting and tap it. change the 1 to a 0 and save the setting.
6. Open the Google App and go to settings > voice > Configure 'Ok Google" or your Assistant.

Tried it on my 2nd gen fire stick (not rooted), nothing, but I think it'd work if I could disable alexa. The alexa_enabled flag doesn't do anything. Maybe we could work together, seeing as you don't have a fire stick?

On the HD I have to start with the Google app 8.33.5 beta. Then setup your assistant doing the ADB steps reboot and then you can let it auto update to the latest version that's how I've been doing it.

One more thing it's important to remember that when you have your assistant setup from ADB also set up the voice commands and what not. That's important because the idea is to have your voice commands already set up when the Google app updates. As long as that happens you won't have to go back and setup assistant with your voice all over again. As long as it remembers your settings from the beta version of the old app the new app version will also take on those settings, voice included. I think that was the main problem before is it wasn't doing that and something else internally with the Google app wasn't allowing you to save your voice commands to the device again. would you still can't do so don't try and go and set up the voice again because it won't work you'll have to downgrade back to the 8.33 version and start all over.
you can also uninstall delete or do whatever you want with the two Amazon applications that have to do with the speech user interface and speech interaction manager they have nothing to do with anything that goes on with the Google app or the assistant or anything Android for that matter.

Do we need to have Google Play Services on the Firestick for this to work? Or will installing the Google app be enough?

I'm pretty sure assistant will only work with play services but I could be wrong. I do know there's somewhat of an assistant ability built into Google go. But it is not nearly as sophisticated.

Hi DragonFire1024,
Thanks for this very interesting post I was just wondering by to see if anyone had unlocked the bootloader :laugh:
Problem with the fire phone is probably 98% of users here use one of @ggow custom ROM's LineageOS 11 or the AOSP based SlimKat and Nexus Rom. Those running the Stock ROM are likely not interested in development hence why no reply's.
To be honest I never even gave the Fire OS a chance before rooting and switching to the Nexus ROM. I am not sure our fire OS has Alexa :silly: or at least as we know it today yes you heard correct a Premium Amazon Device and they see fit not push it out to Amazon device owners. In fact they just went one better and removed the voice service altogether. https://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-phone/general/amazon-voice-services-fire-phone-t3681235 Pretty amazoning :laugh
I was kinda hoping it was to make way for Alexa and a Massive OS Update but I guess thats just wishful thinking. :laugh:
Hey Guys,
I am running the Mate 20 x EVR-AL00 and I was able to get the hivoice uninstalled and the google assistant to stay the persistent assistant app.
Still struggling on getting "Okay Google" to work without the assistant app already loaded. Currently, holding the home button will launch the app.
Here are steps based on the methods of @RedCriwx for removing the default launcher:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-x/how-to/how-to-install-nova-mate-20x-reverting-t3863446
1) Download and extract ADB (I use platform tools:*http://mirrors.zzu.edu.cn/android/re....1-windows.zip)
2) Go to Settings > System > About Phone and tap on "build number" about 8 times. You should see a message saing: "You are a developer now"
3) Back to the previous menu and you should see now a new item called "Developer options", go there, find and enable "USB debugging" (you may have to use a Huawei ID).
4) Now connect the phone to the PC via USB and select "Transfer files" on the phone.
5) Open a command line and go to the directory you extracted "Platform Tools" to.
6) Run the command "adb devices", your device should shown. If not, you need to check the drivers.
7) Run "adb shell"
8) Run "pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.vassistant". It should show "success"
At this point you should be able to set your default assist app and it shouldnt change back to hivoice.
One thing I am still having a problem with is enabling "Access with voice match"

Is anybody else able to enable this option that is running on EVR-AL00 ?

Looks like a lot work to get the same functions as the Google search widget. I just turned Hivoice off and put a widget on the screen but if this worked with only voice like saying "Hey Google" I'd be all over this.

Excellent step by step instructions. Thank you.
To remove Hi Voice this command was critical:
8) Run "pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.huawei.vassistant". It should show "success"
Can you point me to a reference with a list of commands (or syntax) to remove other features/programs that I'd like to uninstall?
Many thanks!

Thank you very much, I wanted to play around more tonight but didnt get a chance.
So what you can do to get a list of commands is once your in the adb shell just run the command "pm -h"
It will display the output of all the commands that can be used.
1) enable "USB debugging"
2) Now connect the phone to the PC via USB and select "Transfer files" on the phone.
3) Open a command line and go to the directory you extracted "Platform Tools" to.
4) Run the command "adb devices", your device should shown. If not, you need to check the drivers.
5) Run "adb shell"
6 Run "pm -h"
Let me know if you find anything in regards to allowing the persistent "Okay Google" Command

Use it ta your own risk. You can cause too much damage though. Factory reset heals everything.
Ok Google will not he able to work on that AL00. As it's not installed as a system app.
The reason it works on the L29 is the Google app is installed to the system. Otherwise functionality will not be present.

Exactly I wanted point this out but it kind of works..
I uninstalled hivoice on mine Note10
I set it up as default
And I can say ok Google and whatever I want
But once app is closed and reopened it says Google assistant isn't your default app but in reality is so Every time I have to manually enable it and then it works..
Should be same in mate 20x

hmm how come? mine youtube doesn't .. but make sure u need to go to play store and disable automatic updates .. and leave notifications that there are new updates tap on update all and quickly tap on cross youtube that won't be updated .. youtube must not be updated by playstore ..
uninstall youtube completely and reinstall vanced again .. make sure it won't be updated...

tried everything, not working, but it´s not dramatical, everytime i open youtube vanced, it is not connected to google, when i fill in my email adress, it says user already connected, and than its fine, connected and works, weird thing. in the regular youtube app everything works like it should, but the most important problem is fixed, thank you again

Same issue for me. Every time youtube vanced gets cleared from memory or I restart the phone, the app is not logged in. I have click on sign-in and then just back out of the login process...then it's fine. The regular youtube app does not have this issues.

guys but I don't know you supposed to NOT have two youtubes .. When I installed vanced it just replaced normal youtube and icon changed ..
Your problem is dat youtube.com or google detecting two youtube apps .. So unsign from normal YT and disable it .. And login to vanced only ...

I don't have 2 YouTube apps installed. After working some of the quirks out, I did a factory reset and set it up again. Now I only have vanced installed and I still have the issue on the L00 version. If there's a fix, please share. It's not a huge deal but just gets annoying I guess.

I think there was a thread in this forum about the backup sync issue. My contacts and photos work fine but nothing else. I use a SMS Backup and Restore for texts and call history.

yea! same like mine. App data,call history, device settings and sms text messages are all on "waiting to backup" status.
And the "Back up now" greyed out , can't click on it.
I don't know what's going on, well but at least I can use Huawei backup everythings to pc.

It was the same on my OnePlus 6. I think the backup feature is just broken.

hey, thank you again.. it has to do with the microG App, which has to run in the background to stay connected with google. Thanks for your help
