voice input

so i had voice input on my g1 and it was amazing it almost always got it right, now i have it thanks to the htc_ime jonas keyboard and via the motorola multitouch and it absolutely stinks, it gets everything wrong and comes back with the most bizarres suggestions,
voice input for search seems to work pretty well so doea anyone have any ideas whats wrong?
english with an an english accent btw.

ok i have a development in this, voice input works ok when i only use the android stock keyboard. with the motorola multitouch it is completely useless so i suppose that must be something to do with it not being optimised for the desire.
still would have expected it to work better with the jonas htc_ime as this worked brilliantly on my g1

forgot to say, in earphone only.

Can you tell me, does Samsung Galaxy Nexus have usb-host? Google says that you can connect keyboards, mouses etc. But not any word about usb flash drives. Does SGN can recognise any flash drives like it can do Galaxy S2?
Thank you in advance.

@tvp I would say the audio is on par with the Galaxy S II for speaker use, Still the single speaker, but I found using headphones the nexus was slightly better than my S II. Plus i use my phone for music through my cars built in 3.5mm jack and ics has an equalizer in the music player meaning you can really get the best out of your music depending on what your using eg headphones, speaker, car etc just by tweaking the EQ

thanks for quick reply, another question.
This is a deal-breaker for me, does the phone support flash?

Can you tell me if the phone dialer works by spelling out a name on the phone dialer screen from your contacts to look up the number?
I have an HTC TB, and the HTC dialer is great.
I hope this phone does this, or i will have to find an app I suppose.

Ok Usb host: I have not been able to try this however it was a feature in android v3 so i dont see it being removed in ICS when i get the chance il try it.
Flash: I have as of yet not been able to get it to work. I have installed flash 11 with no joy I am awaiting confirmation on whats happening with this
And no name dialling it simply displays the number however on ever page of ICS you have a search bar and you just type the name into that and it brings up the contact where you can call straight from there

no flash ??? That's gone be an issue seeing as they are NOT updating flash to support new versions

I know it appears to be an issue since adobe gave up on flash. Im waiting to hear from Samsung regarding this to see if they have any solution as its kind of a major omission esp until everyone starts to use html5
Any other Q ?

Could you show the now playing in the notification and/or music on the lock screen, I'd love to know how it looks
Because one signature isn't enough

Man, no flash?
I might as well just get an iPhone then I reckon.

Thanks for the video, nice and in depth, pity about the frame rate though.

Yes great video, but the frame rate ruins the experience a bit.

I think an alternative (3rd party app) for the HTC dialer would be something like RocketDialer
And Kenneth, first of all I wanted to thank you for the amazing video you posted (also thanked you on the video itself Second, I wanted to ask if you could download the most memory/processor intensive apps that you know of and see if there is any sluggish performance or noticeable lag? (A video would be extremely appreciated) Third, I wanted to know with the multitasking, does it save the last previous state? E.g. for the iphone (as far as I know), when you load a webpage in the browser, exit out of it open some other apps, and then go back into the browser the exact state is saved so it doesn't reload the page when you re-enter the webpage. Finally, I would appreciate it if you could download some free games (e.g. wind up knight, tap tap revenge 4) that require a huge amount of graphics and attempt to play it on the phone. The phone is known to have a really, REALLY, outdated GPU and I wanted to know how it performs.
Sorry if this is too much to ask, and your help is very appreciated

Hey Ken,
Would you be able to find out if OTG usb works? Particularly whether or not the Galaxy Nexus can browse the contents of a usb thumb drive? I have been asking all over the forum and over the internet and as yet still cannot find information, documentation or videos that this is possible.
Thank you very much.

Very interesting, thanks, it's been bugging me about how it looked since it was first announced.

Great vid! Any graphic studdering during games or anything? I don't play many games but alil worried about the lesser gpu.

id ask a question but at this point I'm just waiting until Monday when we're supposed to be getting this phone. I want to see what its like in person & decide then if I want to keep this Rezound or switch up.
I just hope the 32GB model is $299(or possibly on some sale). ill be damned if ill pay that price just for 16GB.

[APP] SwiftKey Flow BETA APK

Finally here! Swifykey Flow - swype style typing with much better prediction, more function, beauty and intuition.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/jy192v5qrj7hqfg/com.touchtype.swiftkey.phone.flow.obeta_4.0.0.54.apk
Enjoy!

I love the fact that you can swype entire sentences now.. you just have to swype down to the space bar in order to go to the next word. VERY cool. The only gripe I have at the moment is the animation for typing single letters at a time. It doesn't really show the entire pop up animation, and when it does it's a little quirky. The whole point of flow is the gestures, so not really a big deal!

Yeah, it's got a few quirks. I also found it will only allow tap typing in certain fields. So far I'm loving it.

I try everything passible and can't get to pass downloading linguage (english US). Any idea?
Edit: never mind.. i uninstall and reinstall app and everything is good..

Seems pretty good so far. I've been using Swype for years, as long as I've had Android phones. Recently tried Swiftkey because I was curious about the next-word prediction, but I couldn't NOT be able to swype. So this is the best of both worlds.
Just waiting for them to enable it in all fields (hopefully) and also hope they improve the editing of predicted words (click anywhere in a word to get other options, more than 2 alternatives would be nice as well).

Been waiting for this for a while now. Using it to type this right now! I love swype and SwiftKey and I'm hoping this is the best of both worlds. It's definitely not prefect yet, they need to work out how to edit the predictions instead just predicting the next right away. But I guess that's kind of the best part of SwiftKey so they need to figure that out!
Thanks alot fit for posting this though!

[Q] Alternate handwriting input keyboard for custom ROMs?

I just flashed Omni 4.4 and am generally loving it but soon came across an issue I didn't even think about. I usually will jot short things down through the Samsung keyboard's handwriting recognition features. I can't find a replacement for this functionality.
I assume someone else here has had the same thing happen, what did you go with? AFAIK we can't port the Samsung keyboard over without TouchWiz.

Try MyScript Stylus Beta

I agree. Very good alternative with good handwriting recognition. Still needs some touching up to be ideal, but a very good option.

Lg g3 Keyboard just unusable

Is it just me or does everyone else agree that the stock keyboard is unusable. Simple texts or emails take 5 times longer then just using the android keyboard. Its horrible. Horrible prediction and does actions I never even ask it to do. Haven't even got to the lag!!! I know there is a mod to fix the lag but I don't think it does much. Anyone else dealing with this?? Anything I can do?

I can't say I agree. The keyboard on the LG G3 has to be one of the best I have ever used. Very close to the one on the iPhone in terms of responsivenss, pretty much no lag and the predictions are quite good.
Have you tried the advanced settings for the keyboard?

The only issue I have with it is not inserting spaces as I'm swiping.

Tbh i love it. Its really great.
What lag are you talking about thats because of the LG keyboard?

For me the keyboard is very fast and the prediction is perfect. It looks good aswell and is very customizable.

It's just you the stock key board is one of the first I have not had or wanted to change soon at I turned the phone on

First stock keyboard that hasn't made me switch to swiftkey... Yet anyway

Glad I noticed this post. I had automatically installed swiftkey and turned it off for a while to see if I liked the LG keyboard. It seams very responsive and easy to use. I love the way you can increase the size of the keyboard.

Yeah the keyboard is pretty bad.
I used it for 1 month straight and was too tired of its errors. I didn't see any lag with it but things like swiping to "is" and getting "it's" drove me nuts and wasted a ton of time correcting. Far too many of these types of errors.
Back to Swype and it works perfect as always.

I like it at first but now reverted back to the Google Keyboard. I find the predictive not that good, say you wanted totype "Ship" it would automatically correct it to "Shop". Any word typed that is not in the dictionary it replaces with one that is, its trying to be too clever.
But the biggest problem is I get this bug where I can only type numbers.
There are good things about this keyboard, numbers shown on top row and excellent spacing of keys.

I'm having this same problem. There has got to be a fix for it, I've tried everything I can think of.

Ok, so switch to another keyboard. Seriously, these types of threads are out of control here. Are we getting all the rejects from the rest of XDA? Are all the smart folks buying other phones? What is going on here.

That was a little harsh. Last I checked this was a discussion board.

You know, you can easily ignore threads with titles that don't interest you instead of complaining... This is a thread about a feature on the phone that this forum is for - it is perfectly on topic.

I agree with the OP its one of the worst I've used because of how tiny the buttons are, I just switched to stock Google and am typing much faster because of it.

Just use Swiftkey, it's free !

No i didnt although opening it again after reading your post and i have noticed that the keyboard updated to a more modern ios type look which is nicer than the bubbly one it shipped with.

Install the Google keyboard, it's fantastic.

Well, kinda agree on this...i stopped using it too, try the google L keyboard... I found it easier to type and use as well. Is available on xda, just search for L keyboard... Comes as apk, can be aplied on non rooted device
