I was wondering if you could replace the usual female robot voice on your device with something like transformer's optimus primes or megatrons voice? Something deep and just cool sounding.... In orientation at college today my phone shouted "call from dad" in that robot female voice..... I thought it would be cool to sound lie megatron or optimus prime!

You can get a pretty nice British chick voice by installing ivona in the play store.the American voice is kinda lame.

Hello,
I am looking for suggestions for a siri equivalent program I saw a number of apps in the market
Which one are you using?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662552
pretty good so far. but to be honest with you Siri is much better lol
^Agreed. S-Voice is pretty decent although it is basically a themed Vlingo
I'm using speaktoit with the ivona tts. works great

I have downloaded and installed Maluuba which is considered the next voice recognition app that challenges Siri. I must say, after using for the last few days, this things will give Siri, S-voice, Google Now and any others a serious run for the money (ohh its free). Cons, It doesn't talk to you, for me I love not hearing those silly robotic voices. I like how it handles task etc...
Good luck!

I love tablet talk, but I have some thing else I would like. The one thing I would love is for an app where I can actually call through a bluetooth connection to my phone. Tablet talk allows you to initiate the call,but you can't hear/talk through the tablet. I have a portable charger for my phone so I just keep it plugged in all day with wifi tethering on, and it connected to my tablet with bluetooth. The N7 can hold its power all day and its big screen and fast processor makes it a great device. But the only problem is, is when I get a text, I use my N7, when I need to look something up, I use my N7, but when I need to take/make a call, I have to pull out my phone. I would love to be able to do it all with my N7.
Anyone up for the challenge? I think a lot of people would get this app.
Tablet talk allows you to have a blue tooth headset connected so you can make calls from the tablet and have it come through the headset.

Tablet Talk does not output audio to a headset connected via Bluetooth to the N7, but will if the headset is connected to the phone.
Limitation of Android outputting audio on the tablet according to the creator of Tablet Talk...

What is with the way you talk? This is some odd form of english that makes very little sense.
...Groove IP (free)
...what I think that fellow is trying to say (in some abstract, Ebonics, web-geeky sorta-way) is that Groove IP is the way to go. There is a free version (with ads) in Google Play; this is what I use.
However, with Groove IP, you'll need a Google Voice number (i.e., Google.com/voice).
Just get yourself a number and then log into Groove IP with your Gmail address and you're good to go!
You almost don't need a cellular phone, anymore; just wi-fi!
P.S., People in the comments in Google play moan that they can't text in Groove IP; although you can't make calls in Google Voice, you can text through their app.
Well to you guys with a IQ that registers 1million GROOVE IP +GOOGLE VOICE +GOOGLE TALK =HOME MADE PHABLET LoL ha ha ha like I said it works for me Bro GOD BLESS YOU AND GOOD LUCK!!!

I guess I'll just do it this way, I was worried that Android Limitations (I thought we didnt have those damn things anymore, ) would stop this from working, but I do have a Google Voice number and my N7 is always connected to the internet, so I will do this.
...so, how'd it go?

I have no idea what I did but it was working fine before. I searched internet and many other threads and even tried this:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZhxvgou4-4
It seems like when I'm trying to increase the volumn while Google Now is suppose to be speak the answer, it's not increasing the media volumn but instead the ringing volumn.
I already tried going into settings and increasing the media volumn there, but it's not having any effects on Google Now's talk.
Please help.
It's not just you, Google Now it's not speaking for everyone right now.

Did this get solved I'm having this problem too. I don't want to hear Samsung's tts on my navigation

As far as I am aware, you cannot sideload the Googletts.apk because it will just force close. I have no idea why Samsung didn't include Google TTS, as their tts is so terrible. You will just have to install SVox for now until someone comes up with a way to get GoogleTTS on the phone. Personally, I'm waiting for Cyanogenmod to come out. I can't stand TouchWiz
I went to the Samsung app store and downloaded an HD voice made by Samsung for free. Its got Google tts but it sounds a hell of a lot better.
