[Q] Is it possible to replace the default phone app? - Verizon Droid Incredible 2

I really dislike how easy it is to accidentally dial or redial someone after you have just hung up the phone. And cannot find a way to turn off one touch dialing.

Download 'Call Confirm' from the market. I hated that too, but this app works amazingly

[APP] - S-Voice from SGS3

Here it is:
http://www.sendspace.com/file/5cmb7i
I've extracted from the SGS3 rom leak and uploaded to SS.
It installs fine, it starts off with a delay but after a few minutes it works well. Works with calling and SMS. Seems fine bit buggy but working.
ok and this application is what more or better than vlingo
it is useful to test or not
Thanks for the upload! Some features work, others don't, one problem is though that the apps speech doesn't seem to be the same as shown on the videos, could this be because of lack of Wolfram Alpha or something? (Or am I just talking rubbish lol)
you're talking rubbish...
the voice has nothing to do with the app itself,
it uses which ever is the default tts on the phone,
you want a new voice get a different tts

It can't set an alarm. But weather and texting is working. Going to test it out and see wich tasks it can and wich ones it cant

It works very good, just a slightly bit choppy.
Here is a video
watch?v=SO2Rq-RtGPo
I would highly recommend for everyone to go on the Play Store and install Ivona Amy UK English Beta application, then set it as your default TTS (to do this open the application) S-Voice sounds 10 times better and more natural like this.

Working flawlessly, GPS is a little off but I think it's because of the One X.
Pretty neat and amazed how it actually works pretty well. Can turn off things like wifi etc...

It think S-Voice is actually vlingo since when you authorize Facebook it ask permission for vlingo not S-Voice.
Not bad but I'll stick with AIVC. It works smoother for me and the voice output is much better. The male voice is very nice, hehe.

Siri like app

Anyone using one of the Siri like apps in the market? I'm currently looking at Skyvi, Vlingo Virtual Assistant, Jeannie (friend of Siri) and Andy - Siri for Android (Free or Full) and was wondering what your experiences have been like.
I used the Samsung s voice app. It worked great until everyone installed it and slammed the servers. Now all I get is network errors.

"Note: You need to have "Voice Search" and "TTS library" installed in your phone for iris. to work. Most of the phones have these pre-installed, if not please install them from Android market before you try iris."
I know we have Voice Search preinstalled but do we have TTS library as well? Not sure how to confirm that.
I used Iris (siri spelled backwards) for a while. Switched to S-voice ripped out of the SGS3 today.

Just thought you guys should know, in case you didn't see - Someone found a workaround for S Voice:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1664785
Also, S Voice is apparently based on Vlingo.. Anyone try out the new "Vlingo Labs"? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vlingo.phoenix
Yeah, the workaround is iffy for some, especially getting a proper location.
I did some more research
So people are saying the S Voice app is iffy (on GNex) - bad voice recognition and many force closes.
Vlingo Labs is very limited in features right now. Looks like I'm waiting out on Siri functionality. I'll stick to the ICS built-in voice actions for now
I've tried a few different ones and I dug AIVC the most of the lot

Well, I am trying "Evi" now. It's only version 1.1.0, but so far not bad.
I've been using AIVC for a while now....and have tried most of the other ones, but like it the most!
The only complaint I have is that if I ask it to send a text, it doesn't pick up the contact name...but I can't really blame it since it only does it contacts who's names aren't normal english ones haha

[Mod][Guide][ICS]How to fully replace S-voice with Google Now voice search

This is simply a tutorial on how to replace Samsung's crappy s-voice with the amazing Google Now voice search!
In order to follow this guide you must be rooted, if you are not and wish to do so, follow the guide here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1739426 If you are already rooted, then continue with the guide!
Step 1: Installing Google Now:
1.)Download the Google now flashable zip here (download the one entitled mikey7 online/offline voice) XDA Google Now Download Thread
2.)Make sure they are on your internal SD card and reboot into recovery
3.)choose install zip file and navigate to wherever the file is (if you are unsure then there is a good chance that it is filed under downloads/mikey7_offline.zip)
4.)once you are done with this, turn your device back on and verify that the app "Google" is in your app drawer
5.)If so then continue with the tutorial, if not then retry and if that does not resolve the issue then post questions in this forum.
Step 2: Activating Google Now
1.)Make sure you have Google latitude installed and have set up your account for latitude before continuing just to be safe.
2.)Launch the Google Now app and go through the setup until you click the "Yes, I'm in." option and your cards appear
3.)Continue to the next and final step or, if you are happy with not being able to launch Now via double tapping the home button, stop here and have a nice day!
Step 3: Replacing S-Voice
1.)Go into S-voice settings and uncheck the option "Launch S-Voice"
2.)Download a free app from the market called "home2 shortcut" (or link here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eikatou0.appspot.home2shortcut ..)
3.)Set the double tap home option (Home> Home) to launch "Voice Search" from installed applications. (make sure it displays a blue microphone when you do this)
4.)Continue with the instructions for the app and close the app.
5.)Test it out, if it doesn't launch directly into the voice search after doing the double home then follow the next few steps, if it does then skip to step 8.
6.)Open the Google Now app (it will be listed as "Google" in your app drawer)
7.)Press menu>refresh.
8.)Reboot
9.)Enjoy having Google Now on your Ice cream sandwich Samsung Galaxy S3!

Thanks for this...is there a way to set this up so that a single press while in my launcher (Nova Launcher) returns to the default screen? Single presses in the launcher do not currently do anything.

You maybe can go into gestures settings in nova and set up the double tap for voice search in nova. However, you may have to triple press. This was actually my work around for a small time. You may have to buy the premium nova in order to use gestures though. Hope this works!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747 using Tapatalk 2
the manual search is working perfectlly on my tab 10.1 running 4.0.4.
but the voice function is not. the message of "shell has been granted in su perm" kept appering for tens of times. then the app get forced to close.
thanks for the great effort...

ASUS Supernote 3.1.0 from PadFone 2

This is the supernote 3.1 from Asus PadFone 2
I was able to get this app working on our phone.
I only tested on my wife's and my nexus 4. But I would imagine that it also works on other Jellybean devices as well.

Seems to work great. Just missing page navigation buttons when in a notepad. Works great on my Xoom too running 4.0.4. Syncs well between the two. An ability to add remember needs would make this my top notepad/to do list but will have to stick with catch (functions nowhere near the same but can set reminders).
This is very much like the snote app on s3 and note, but with better sync.

Handwriting to text conversion
Hi, my friend has this on his Padfone 2. I downloaded this as well. We see that this is the same version 3.1.0.9.0.
However, everything is the same except for one feature. He has this button just left of the Trashcan button, that is for conversion of handwriting to text. It works pretty well. In the Settings menu, he has one extra option to select what language for 'Recognition Language', referring to the handwriting feature.
Do you see this option? I'm thinking the app knows that it's not being used on an Asus and disables this? I'm using Samsung Galaxy S3.
Thanks!
