No voice with S Voice - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

Maybe my S Voice has laryngitis, but she wont say anything, the answers just get posted up with no sound. Anyone run in to this?

Haha it did this to me too. I think that if you have your phone on silent it wont answer in voice. I think. check if that works?

Nope, not on silent. I did toggle it on/off just in case, but didnt work.

Can someone give S Voice a try to see if maybe its a network thing, please?

Mines not replying by voice either.. I'm on Jellybean AOSP TW.. I'll report back if it works at some point.

Im also getting more than usual Network Error's.

Yeah man, no voice and two network errors in a row. I don't know what's up but I do know that the voice didn't work for me sometimes. It's buggy like that.

same, no talking here but I dont use S voice any more. it's slow as hell. There's an app called "assistant" on google play and it's much better

same thing happening here

I dont really use it either, but I was farting around with it today and noticed she was mute. And my brain instantly goes to 'Why isnt this working, did I screw it up, and do I need to perform a recovery on it' mode.

Same here. Just got mine today was working for a few minutes now its got no voice. This sucks.

I might not understand how these apps work with the voice, but jb voice search is hit or miss when asking for baseball scores. Sometimes it speaks it, sometimes it doesn't, and there's not a pattern of when or why it speaks or remains silent.

You guys are right. Google now on cm10 has been working for me, though. Better than s voice was.
Although, I didn't really give it a fair test. I rooted and flashed within 15 minutes

Sofar the only thing that worked for me was to use Odin and restore the firmware back to UVALEM. Then S Voice gets her voice back. If I then update via Kies to UVALH2, her laryngitis returns.
I am bone stock. Never rooted and tried a factory reset and cleared the data via the apps manager. None of that helped.

Hmmmm....wonder if this is a cross platform problem or just us TMo users.

Stock rooted on latest OTA update, just checked and no voice.

Same here, on the no counter stock rooted rom and the chick aint talkin. I assume its a server glitch. Ill remain patient.

[Q] Not Authorized?

I just installed root using the qbking77 latest method and now all of a sudden whenever I call a number (any number) it says I am not authorized. Any solutions? Thanks so much!
Is it stock rooted? did you flash any ROM after rooted?

Why yes I am using Google Voice for my voicemail I believe. How did you solve your friend's problem? Thanks so much for the quick reply dude!
That's the funny part. I don't really know what he changed to get it to start in the first place but all I do know was we changed some setting on the computer it was much easier to use the website then the phone. It was driving me nuts because I was flashing a rom at the time and out of no where the phone stopped working to I brought his phone to work on it and it just started to work. So I guess I would start by turning of Google voicemail in the settings and then you might have to give it a few to start to work then you should be good to go.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
So you don't know which setting that he changed?
Nope we seemed to change them all but we ended up just disabling it at the end because he did not like Google voicemail anyway sorry I wish I new what would have really worked but all I do no is that Google voicemail was his problem at the end. sorry man but trust me that was the problem.

It should be under settings/phones,you would do this from the google voice website once you sign in online the settings are on the far right,the tool icon.
Soooo stupid. I chatted with Sprint customer service and anyone who is having this problem heed my words. They told me to take the battery out, wait for 30 seconds, and restart. At first I was like...your sh****ing me right, generic advice...really Sprint? Then I did it and voila, my phone could make phone calls again.

Using deactivated Epic as a media/app device?

I really don't even know how to search for this because the only device I know of that I could compare the functionality I want is the iPod Touch. I moved to Verizon a while back and got the Galaxy Nexus. What I would like to do with my Epic is remove all of the phone functions and leave it as a WiFi capable device similar to the iPod Touch so that my son can use it to watch videos and play games. I keep airplane mode turned on, but I keep getting some notification about voicemail not working and I would prefer it to not be able to accidentally dial 911 since Sprint is required to allow that call if the phone tries to send it.
Are there any ROM's that do this, or is it easy to remove the necessary files? I currently have ACE2.0 flashed, and I love it, but I will switch if I need to.
Didn't someone just post this exact same thing? Delete dialeractivity.apk and there will be no dialer.

Sorry, I didn't see any threads that I thought were the same question. Does that take care of the voicemail notification too?
I found this when looking for something similar for a used Fascinate.
I haven't tried it yet, but intend to when I get some time in a couple weeks...
Looking at the package it deletes several apks and installs a "radiooptions" binary that gets run via script at boot-up.

How to use T-mobile app with custom Rom?

I noticed when installing a custom ROM I can no longer use the t-mobile app. Something gets changes on the phone that it can no longer detect. I notice a mention about changing the name of your device name in Prop Editor to get it to work. Can anyone point in the correct direction on how to do this and what the correct name is? Thank you so much
Here is the link talking about visual voicemail "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tmobile.vvm.application&reviewId=13394572091432524136"
I wiped everything and re-flashed. Then it worked again. In my haste I switched to Google Voice and found it a much better option.

Thanks I use GV also with groove ip. I'm on the 30 a month plan on tmobile so I hardly ever use my tmobile number but love the app for checking minutes and usage so I would really like to use it T-Mobile app only works on stock rom for me though not on any custom rom.

Click on Address no longer brings up MAPS

Used to be able to click on an address in text messages or in any browser and android would open it in MAPS or EARTH or NAVIGATION etc.
I recently installed AOKP milestone 6 for the first time, coming from Caulks 1.6. I'm not sure if it's an AOKP issue or if it's a 4.0.4 issue or what. I do know my buddy just lost this function on his G Nexus when he updated to Jelly Bean. That makes me think it's not a 4.0.4 issue because it worked normally for him on ICS. I definitely haven't taken any OTA updates so even if it was part of the Apple patent bullsh!t how would it be effecting me?
This is really important to me because I use this function multiple times a day.
Also, Maps takes forever to focus when I zoom in on a map. Any ideas on that?
A quick search shows issues with strings.xml not associating correctly, regardless of app.
Did you clear, uninstall and try fresh with one of the apps?

Strings is just a way of using localized data contained to point to more data that it may contain. Its a SQL function, well, to me.
But I do not know if its a root or an app function within Android itself. Someone smarter than me may have that answer.
I'd try clearing cache and data for the particular app, removing, then reinstall. But it may be more severe of an issue if no app will work.
Did you recently flash a ROM?
: edit: Please disregard that obvious dumb question I ask at the end. Its been a long day..

I personally haven't used aokp, and I apologize for asking a question that you clearly answered in your op. Been a long day.
I'd check to see if anyone with your setup can recreate or maybe, possibly, you had a corrupted or failed partial file or a failed write during flash.

And to answer your question, I just searched "Android getlocality" which is geocoding. Which will point you to strings, which are generic.. We use it in my line of work. Environmental Engineering.. ( i'm not a tree hugger btw..)

Lol that's ok if you were. I just wondered bc I searched "address" and didn't find a thing related.
Ok just tested and it works in dolphin but not chrome. I just started using Chrome so that must not be a feature. As for sms I guess the it just doesn't work. I'll look into if I have a jelly bean sms app. I bet that's it.

I think you're on to something. There are multiple goecoder issues, random, with jelly bean on the the 'ol search. Multiple fixes if you're looking for a workaround.. NOT promoting a site, but stack overflow shows a few..

And, to beat a dead horse deader, cause you touched on something I actually use, Andriod Chrome is using geocoding.. Odd that it isn't working for you. My maps in ICS have that function but it may still be broken in JB. Reference here.

There are two options for you at this point: rip it down and fix it yourself. Or switch to iOS. Oh wait, there is a third, stop complaining and be thankful for the things that you have the inability to produce.
</RANT>
Ha, you totally missed the point of the and took it as a "apple guy" post...
Billion dollar company = cant fix or launch a decent working messaging app.
No one is switching to IOS here, but IOS people aren't running to hangouts in droves either..
If google was serious about making hangouts a "standard" it wouldnt still be the abortion it currently is.

You missed the point. the Hangouts app in this thread, IS NOT FOR OUR PHONE! It works fine on the Nexus 5, the phone it was MADE FOR. We are using an app that was not designed to work for our phones yet. Hence why it has not been released to the play store and why it's not on our phones stock. So sit back, grab a latte and wait for the official so we don't have to see you complain.

Okay I got ya now. Weird though, because I didn't have any problems with the video hangouts or the app at all really. I did use it VERY limited though before the SMS version. Now with the SMS version, unofficial, I have NOT tried video. But MMS pictures do jack it up. However, I just send any MMS through stock app.
