Every time I open navigation I'm prompted with this message:
Voice Guidance
For voice-guided navigation, you need to install text-to-speech support from teh Android Market.
When I hit install I'm given these options:
Complete action using
IVONA Text-to-Speech HQ
Manage Google Text-to-speech voice data
When I open using IVONA it takes me to IVONA's page and asks me to install a voice (which I already have and works great if I choose to skip this nonsense).
When I open using the second option (manage google...) I'm given this option:
"Download this data to support speech synthesis on your device.
No downloadable voices
How do I get this prompt to stop? Voice guided nav is working just fine so why is it telling me to install this every time I open the app?
Anybody?
I have the same problem...anyone find a solutions?
May not be your issue, but check your settings /language & input / text to speech and be sure you select a default.
You need to enable it. I think its with the keyboard settings.

Unless the settings are elsewhere everything in the keyboard settings are enabled. Like I said, the voice navigation is working fine despite the prompt
Solved
I had the same problem, the dialog-box kept prompting and asking for download.
But when I did the following changes, it stopped and everything worked fine.
Settings ----> Language and Input ----> Text-to-Speech output -----> preferred TTS engine
by default "Samsung TTS" was selected. I changed it to "Google Text-to-Speech Engine" .
Once I made the above change , the Navigation worked fine without any download prompts.
By the way ,my device details are as follows.
Galaxy Note N7000
Android 4.0.3 Stock ROM
Hope it helps

same issue
Hello,
Even I have tried "Settings > Language & Input > Google voice typing", small mic icon on keyboard seems inactive mode. When I have forced to use voice for input by using the setting, it turned back with connection problem. BTW I am using stock rom ICS 4.0.2.
Thanks in advance

I decided to open my data connection and its work. In fact I didn't understand cause when i bought this phone I haven't got any data connection and it was working very good. Anyway my problem has been solved by itself. Thanks
Interesting. This happened to me today as well.
I uninstalled Voice Search because I thought I never used it. I noticed voice typing was gone and after reinstalling Voice Search, I can't get voice typing back.
Voice Typing never appears in the Language and Input menu no matter what I do.
HELP!
Uninstall and reinstall Google Search and Voice. Check the keyboard settings and make sure voice is enabled.
Anyone got any ideas for getting this to work with google music? I want my cloud with voice commands.

It won't work for Google Music. Only the Samsung stock music app
Seems silly they'd put this option in our main settings and not application local if it wasn't intended for developers as an option.

Anyone know if this is part of S-Voice or which APK?
I have removed lots of system apps, long ago, and now realized this option is gone and I don't know which system app to restore.
Thanks.
go to Settings > Language and input, and set the 'Voice cmd for apps' toggle to on. You can also tap on that entry to see what commands are available and select which ones you want to activate.

Nice of you to help but you are missing the point - these option do not appear on my device in the Input/Languages screen.
Or atleast they didn't until I restored SVoice
Does anyone else find that Google Now does not always engage when you say "Google" to activate it?
For me it only responds about once or twice. It works again after a reboot for another once or twice.
Anyone have a fix foe that?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
It does this to me sometimes too I just give my phone a reboot and it works again, Hopefully it will get better once the source is released.
For me it keeps FCing. I've tried reinstalling it without luck. Has anyone been having this problem running AOKP build 40?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus
I have not seen this happen on my gnex. So far Google now has been spot on. It has been a little laggy at times, but no FCs or unresponsive.
Would there be any benefit in reflashing JB. Did something go wrong in the install?

Google Now Voice search
My Google Now doesn't have any working voice-back. When I do a voice search, it only shows a google search result.

Google Voice Search will not speak back with every search results. It will with some searches and request such as weather, definitions, directions, celebrity profile, etc. If you have attempted those and still have no voice response, you may need to download the offline speech recognition.
Go to Settings > Language & input > Speech > Voice Search > Download offline speech recognition. Select the language of your choice and enjoy.
Hope this helps!

I'm having the same problem. I tried downloading the offline speech recognition but it didn't help.
All that google now does for me is display the google search results, but it never provides me with any additional feedback even with the simplest searches, like: "is it going to rain tomorrow" or "who is the ceo of google?".
Anyone has any idea what might be the problem?

Can it be related to, that I'm running Yakjuxw, and not Yakju?
Today, Google Search was updated, bringing additional cards to Google Now. My voice searches are the same, though.
Problem persists.
I just got myself a Jawbone ERA, works pretty well, but i;d love it to open google now or voice search via the button, or with some command. Is there a way to enable this on the XS? thanks1
There is an app called Bluetooth Launch that may help you out

I have that installed but it seems to do nothing when set to voice search activity
Sent from my Xperia S using xda premium
I would just set it to the Google search activity not voice search also double check that you have Bluetooth bypass checked in your settings under security. Google search"now" should give you the same commands and more than voice search I believe

Did you get this working? I've
1.) Installed the "bluetooth launch" app
2.) Disabled the voice dialer
3.) set bluetooth launch to: a) com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.voicesearchactivity b) com.goog...googlesearch c) com.go...searchactivity
And in each case, I get:
a screen asking if I want to use bluetooth launch or google search (I know that I can permanently set this to search, but won't do so until everything else works consistently)
If I select "google search" I get a screen that says "Say call follow by a name or a number" Although this works fairly well, its not what I'm looking for. I want to be able to activate google now to navigate, play songs, and yes, to dial people.
The "bluetooth launch" app seems like the right app for the job, but "google now" shows up nowhere (that I can find) on it's list of possible actions. We really shouldn't need apps at all. Google now should be on by default, or at least (easily) setup to interact with bluetooth.
I never got anywhere with it in afraid, Google now didn't even seem to listen over bluetooth which is weird

Use Titanium Backup to freeze Voice Dialer (com.android.voicedialer) and set Bluetooth Launcher to launch com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.voivesearchactivity. Set Google Now to use Bluetooth Input. This works for me, my Bluetooth headset launches straight into Google Now Voice Search.
Why am i not getting Google Assistant on my OnePlus2 LOS 14.1? I have enrolled myself in the Google beta program, cleared cache, changed search and voice language to English(US). But I still didn't get Google Assistant. Any flashable files for that?
having the same issue :/
Its very easy to get google assistant on your phone by following steps:-
1)download velvet zip file from google
2)use buildprop application and add 2 commands at the end ro.product.model=pixel XL and ro.opa.eligible_device=true
3)boot into any custom recovery and install the velvet.zip file
Now you are all good to go!!!!!!!!

Here's how I got it working on a JDCteam Lineage OS Nougat 14.1 ROM. I can't guarantee it will work, but give it a try, since you don't have to use any mods to get it working.
Note: You might not need to install the Google Now Launcher, so if you want, you can skip that. If The Assistant doesn't work, then try installing the Google Now launcher.
If you have Google Assistant and Google Now Launcher installed. Uninstall them, and reinstall both of them. If you want, clear their cache for good measure.
Now, set the Google Now Launcher as your default launcher, and launch a couple of apps. Then switch back to your preferred launcher. You can set the Google Now Launcher as your default launcher by going into System Settings > Apps > Tap the Gear Icon > under Home App (tap that to change the launcher). If the Google Now Launcher does not appear as a choice, then make sure you have it installed.
Next, open the Google Assistant by clicking its icon in the app drawer. Click the microphone icon in Google Assistants search box. This should prompt you to grant permissions for the microphone.
Next, in the Google Assistant app, tap the hamburger button (top left corner) and make sure your Google account appears. Now, tap Settings and tap the other settings that appears. This should open Google Assistants settings menu.
Exit the setting menu, and test Google Assistant with a voice command to see if it responds. Hopefully it works.
This is what got me working, but it's sometimes a bit buggy. For instance, sometimes after I say OK Google, the Google Assistant screen does not pop up, but it still accepts a voice command. If that happens, try these steps over again. Also, the Say "OK Google" any time setting is greyed out, and I can't get that setting to activate, though Google Assistant works when the screen is active.
