[Q] Merriam-Webster Dictionary Problem - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I installed the free Merriam-Webster Dictionary app on my GN and it works fine with the exception of the Voice Search. When I hit the Voice Search icon, a screen opens that says, "Preparing," and the app gets hung up and does nothing more. Has anyone had a similar problem or know a fix? Thanks.

Same problem on my GN, and this is the first corroboration of the problem I've seen. Problem with ICS, I wonder?

[Q] CM7 RC1+ not working with Google Voice?

I'm not able to post on the CM7 RC1.5 thread, which is probably where this question is most relevant, but I've noticed since I switched to CM7 from CM6.1 (I did a wipe and clean install) that Google Voice no longer stores my voicemails. Now I get a 3 second blank message every time and I've had people who have called me tell me that my greetings message doesn't play either. Anyone else run into this issue or know how to resolve it?
I have not had this issue. Sorry.
I didn't have that but I had other force quit issues with Google Voice.

[Q] Voice Search does not recognize first word/command.

I have been having a problem with Google Voice Search for the past while.
What is happening is when I activate the Voice Search and speak something like "Navigate to [random store name]" or "Map of [random place]" it just ignores the command part (Navigate/Map). It just searches the non-command part on google in the browser.
Also does not work with "Text", "Call", Dial" or any other command.
I have tried Clearing data/cache, uninstall/reinstall and neither have helped at all.
I have a HTC HeroC with the same setup and version and it works flawlessly.
It is not a timing thing as I can give it a few seconds before talking and it still does this.
While it is processing the command has a spike in the audio, so it is detecting that I said it.
Has anyone else experienced this? and how can I fix it?
Thanks.

TTS always on for GMail

I've tried finding a solution to this on the board and elsewhere, but all the suggested solutions either didn't work, or aren't available ...
I'm running the current RC2 of CM ICS on my G2, which works relatively well apart from the known occasional problems (font, camera messed up in goggles). Anyway, I'm not sure whether this occured with RC1 or RC2, but GMail keeps reading out mails to me with TTS, and I've not been able to switch it off ... web scripts install is disabled, I have no "drive mode" or "voice input and output" in the settings that I can find, I can't find the voice input app (apart from the voice dialer), and I don't have the apps installed that have invoked this problems for some other users ... some posts mentioned it might be a bug in the ICS release ...
Any idea how to get rid of this? It's really annoying ... Thanks!
Not the real fix, but it seems like after installing Google Now for ICS, the TTS for GMail is now somehow turned off... weird ...

Anyone have recent problems with Voice Search?

Voice Search was running just fine, then one day it started acting up (it would just freeze) I use the app called Assistant, which runs through Google Voice Search I assume because it was also freezing up when Voice Search started acting up. I tried un-installing then re-installing voice search, but that was a no go. I re-flashed the ROM I use (FreeGS3) to see if that was the problem, and it was not.
No...But that sounds familiar.

I've been having issues with it saying "no server connection" in full bars of 3g...but nothing like what you're running into. I suppose it could be your ROM, but I don't have that much experience. PA worked fine for me while I had it.

[Q] Voice actions with Google Search in CM10.1VJ

Hi Everyone,
I installed the 4.2.2 ROM from vijendrahs, which runs great on the Desire.
But I cannot get Voice Actions to work. When I say "call xxx", I get the web search result of "call xxx" instead of the "xxx" contact like I expected.
Voice parameters are in french, but I tried english and it does not work better.
Has someone figured out a fix for this yet?
Thanks,

I'm experiencing the same problem on my GN2 (SCH-i605) running imnuts' Tweaked VZW remix. Every time I try a voice command it performs a web search instead. The developer of the ROM stated that it's working fine on his so that leads me to believe it's probably a setting we've accidentally toggled or maybe an app we have that's interfering with it and not the ROM itself.
I hope someone can shed some light on the situation.
Thanks,
Bodie
Edited to add solution: I went into the app manager and found com.google.android.voicesearch and cleared the cache and data and then did the same for the Google Search app and rebooted. As of right now mine is working again
