[Q] Can someone port the new voice search - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Just curious is it possible to port the new voice search like siri , to our ics bulids in the meantime we wait for jelly bean ??????

S E A R C H will help a whole lot http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1668824

im not talking about s-voice my friend , i'm talking about the new google voice search thats in jelly bean.

I honestly could care less about voice search. The less that people read and type, the dumber they get. It's bad enough that people speak in smiley faces and lol's. Google already auto corrects our spelling.

Samsung or Google voice search?
Not sure he's referring to the Samsung voice search or Google's Jelly Bean improved search.

Jb google search is completely different here is what I believe you want video not the app

Right this is a good question, Can it be done for those of us who would enjoy that feature?

Smiley faces and lols are a good way to help people understand the intent when communicating in a text only environment. Too often people misconstrue what is being said because it sounds too blunt or rude. General language, spelling and grammar are definitely suffering beneath the onslaught of texting slang but don't throw the smiley faces under the bus, they aren't to blame.
But keeping to the topic at hand, voice search, voice texting and voice activate features are very helpful in a number of environments. And most of the voice search engines require that people speak properly as they don't usually respond to slang.

I was referring to text slang. Now that I think about it. If it's better than siri, I'll get it just to crush the feelings of my I phone slaved friends.

i meant google jelly bean new voice search, ported to ics roms if it can be done.

I agree with you, you can't convey emotion, with text very well. The silly lol's and smiley's are one way to do that. Even with those things many people still take things the wrong way.
P.S. Lol

PLEASE!
would be a tremendous hit! ICS already has a significant percent of representation in the android world, so if it is possible to port it would be awesome.
CM9 or AOKP definitely need this voice search!

Voice search has been ported for ICS. I'm about to try it in a bit

Useful app... offline voicecommands

Hi,
I think there is a very useful app needed in all smartphone...and specially in the fantastic galaxy s2: the offline voicecommands.
People, like me, that have not the possibility to get always connected to the net, need the offline voicecommands like the mororola smartphones. We just need a porting of that app as the vivaldi 4season team did, but working for all the roms and in particular that app have to work...
Who is the dev that can do this for the "disconnected" community? He will help the people that need to call someone whilst is driving a car... No accidents trying to do a call whilst driving car, no money spent in a special contract to be always connected.
We need a hero!

Dont we have that already with the Built in Samsung Voice actions powered by Vlingo which also has a drive/car mode
Vlimgo requires Internet and to be honest is not greatest when dialing contacts especially if they are not typical English names.
Just do what I do as soon as I install rom, delete vlingo and put original android voicedialer.apk in system (note: not voice search) app from nexus s gingerbread or cyanogen rom. Works offline and much better for contacts recognition. Responds fine to bluetooth dial as well.

Could you post that apk please?
Here you go!
Remember put this in system/app folder with root explorer (do not install as regular apk) and remember to delete vlingo voice to go apk from there cause it will clash on bluetooth dial.
Istituto tris app multilanguage?
Is this only for dialing or sms too?

It's name is voice dialer! Ask me again if this is for dictating sms!
Or are you asking if you can start text message with this?
There's voice actions for that or vlingo or whatever but they all need to be connected to the net.
With this you can basically start any app installed on the phone with command open * (open MESSAGING or open OPERA MOBILE) or dial contacts on the PHONE or command redial.
You can not say 'send text to "contact name"'. If you want deeper than that then use online ones I mentioned.
Iono if it's multilanguage? I why don't you try it then tell us? What I do know is that I have plenty non English contacts and it dials them correctly even though it repeats them weird with English phonetics. It is able to learn as well so if it's confused between 2 contacts, manually selecting correct one, will not prompt again with same pronunciation. I have had few names that I had to gradually train like that going from English phonetics to native tongue pronunciation and now it's perfect.
I save data with titanium so don't have to train it again between flashing.

Calm down. If you insist, so i ask you again: is it for dictating sms?
A forum need people able to talk gently with others and if they can and want, to answer to the question, and not to be arrogant.
If you are nervous go to sleep.
So Dumb
So Dumb to not understand plain English.
Lol! Yeah all we need in forum are lazy people that post request in wrong section and won't do **** for themselves even when the help and explanation is being offered several times, but are easy to offend!
This was a waste of fingers. I'm off to sleep as you suggested and you wait for another soft spoken fellow or a gall.
But I'll throw you another bone. None of the solutions to date offer offline dictation on any smartphone platform and you ponder...

Stupid as usual. Nothing better to expect from you and useless people thinking like you. Enjoy you and your friends with the bones by yourself.
Poor you...find a girl and be less nervous, and maybe a mother so serious you will be polite.

Lolz! And this is how needy but polite people become not so polite but still lazy.
Point being: instead of finding ways of being offended maybe you should have read more carefully and see I and others had tried to help you throughout this topic. You have 4 posts and look what they are.
Anyways ill stop now and leave your thread alone.

HTC Speak- Htc's response to Siri and S-voice?

Just letting the people on XDA know about HTC's latest update on facebook.
http://rawkinaptech.blogspot.in/2012/06/htc-to-launch-voice-assistant-for-its.html
I know there have been rumours and A HTC speak Apk in the Endeavor Leaked ROM.
but, it seems like HTC is hinting at this coming pretty soon.
S-voice, Siri and now this,all are only good for a laugh. I find it much easier to do the job myself than to ask something that i may or may not get a correct response. Also i don't have a dog so this is useless for me i guess
Thank god. The lack of an integrated voice dialer is probably my biggest ***** about the phone. Vlingo works OK but it doesn't let you dial by digit, only contact name. I hope Speak is in the 2.05 update, that would be fantastic.
True it's a Gimmick, but a welcome gimmick at least.

It's because , they don't (still) recognise your pronunciation.

Voice dialing has been around for ever (since G1). Hit the Mic button on the search widget and say call 0123456789.

I should have added "via Bluetooth." That's all I really care about.
Did you notice the FB comments:
HTC: In case it wasn't obvious enough, this "app" isn't real and we're just having some fun. B)

Voice Typing Slang

I dictate a fair amount of my text messages and, quite often, my standard English is replaced by slang. For example, when I say "want to" it is replaced by "wanna." Anyone know how to disable this "feature?"

No one else with English OCD issues know of a workaround for this?

Itl be a few years before these new voice apps clearly repeat normal everyday slang /mumble mumble just as we state it.. All u can do is speak slow and clear and pronunciate words clearly

[Q] Galaxy Note II - Google Voise Search

Hey all, Since the purcahse of my Infnity Tab, I have been waiting to get an android "phone" to replace my old iphone 3gs. So grabbed the Note II yesterday ! Love it ! So far so good, with the exception of one small issue. S voice fine for what it is, but I watched many videos on Google Voice where it will actually "speak back" (a la Siri or "S" voice). I can not for the life of me get google search to speak an answer back to me.
I have check volume for "media" - I can hear S voice so I should be able to hear Google's voice
I have English (US) selected as language of choice.
I have voice response set to "Always"
What might I be missing. I have searched and watched a few videos, I am stumped.
Any tips/help would be greatly appreciated.
Have you tried generic questions like "what's the weather gonna be like today?" and if so, what happens when you ask these questions.

Where do you live? If you purchased your phone outside of the United States that's why it's not working.
I got my NOTE 2 in Canada and had the same problem. Refer to my post for the answer:

I'm kinda confuse here... You do know Google Voice and Google Now are two different products, right?
Google Voice: voice.google.com
Google Now: the voice recognition (assistant) feature introduced on JB, like Siri on steroids...
As for the question... Open Google Search, check on Settings\Voice\Speech Output
Peace!

But no matter what if you want Google NOW to to talkback you have to use the local/language app. Because for some reason none US phones don't allow you to change the phone language to English (US).

Teaching Google to Spell

Hey All:
There's some threads about contact recognition, but my issue isn't with Google misspelling a contact.
My one month old daughter's name is Raegan, as distinct from the former president's spelling of the name. Any idea how to make Google interpret texts to my wife, e.g. "How's Raegan doing?" to refer to my daughter and not to Mr. Reagan?
Even if it meant manually correcting the spelling on the watch a few times, I don't mind, but I can't figure out how to correct it on my watch.
Thanks!

I know it's not what you're looking for, but I have been able to successfully (most of the time) spell out words Android won't recognize. You could try it, Ok Google - Send text to [contact] - "how's R-A-E-G-A-N doing, question mark."
In fact I just tried it and it worked. Unfortunately since you're spelling it out for Wear, it won't automatically capitalize the name, and I had no success in dictating "capitol R."
