[Q] Voice actions with Google Search in CM10.1VJ - Desire General

Hi Everyone,
I installed the 4.2.2 ROM from vijendrahs, which runs great on the Desire.
But I cannot get Voice Actions to work. When I say "call xxx", I get the web search result of "call xxx" instead of the "xxx" contact like I expected.
Voice parameters are in french, but I tried english and it does not work better.
Has someone figured out a fix for this yet?
Thanks,
lejnfns

I'm experiencing the same problem on my GN2 (SCH-i605) running imnuts' Tweaked VZW remix. Every time I try a voice command it performs a web search instead. The developer of the ROM stated that it's working fine on his so that leads me to believe it's probably a setting we've accidentally toggled or maybe an app we have that's interfering with it and not the ROM itself.
I hope someone can shed some light on the situation.
Thanks,
Bodie
Edited to add solution: I went into the app manager and found com.google.android.voicesearch and cleared the cache and data and then did the same for the Google Search app and rebooted. As of right now mine is working again

TTS always on for GMail

I've tried finding a solution to this on the board and elsewhere, but all the suggested solutions either didn't work, or aren't available ...
I'm running the current RC2 of CM ICS on my G2, which works relatively well apart from the known occasional problems (font, camera messed up in goggles). Anyway, I'm not sure whether this occured with RC1 or RC2, but GMail keeps reading out mails to me with TTS, and I've not been able to switch it off ... web scripts install is disabled, I have no "drive mode" or "voice input and output" in the settings that I can find, I can't find the voice input app (apart from the voice dialer), and I don't have the apps installed that have invoked this problems for some other users ... some posts mentioned it might be a bug in the ICS release ...
Any idea how to get rid of this? It's really annoying ... Thanks!
Not the real fix, but it seems like after installing Google Now for ICS, the TTS for GMail is now somehow turned off... weird ...

Anyone have recent problems with Voice Search?

Voice Search was running just fine, then one day it started acting up (it would just freeze) I use the app called Assistant, which runs through Google Voice Search I assume because it was also freezing up when Voice Search started acting up. I tried un-installing then re-installing voice search, but that was a no go. I re-flashed the ROM I use (FreeGS3) to see if that was the problem, and it was not.
No...But that sounds familiar.

I've been having issues with it saying "no server connection" in full bars of 3g...but nothing like what you're running into. I suppose it could be your ROM, but I don't have that much experience. PA worked fine for me while I had it.

Google Search Force Close

Hello everyone!
I'm running Hyperdrive on my S3, and I'm struggling with Google Search and getting it to work properly. I haven't had this issue before on the S3 or my Note, so I'm a little lost. It came pre-installed with this app. It would open, run through the Google Now setup, and then when it went to the part where it listens to what you're saying, the screen would freeze and it would force close (eventually). I removed it and reinstalled it from the market.. Same thing. I have tried different APK files I found and nothing is working.
I have also noticed that when the app is installed, I have two different search applications, so I think it's running a duplicate app somewhere, but I can't find it.. I have "Google" which takes me to the search thing, and then I have "Voice Search" which takes me there as well, both force close if I open them.
Any ideas? Where are all the files for these located? I thought I completely removed it, but maybe I missed something and it's causing issues.
Thanks for the help!

Sounds like your google voice is messed up somehow, If you manually type something into google now, does it work? I would say to try and clear cache and data for google search and framework in settings>apps>under all tab. Reboot phone, if this doesn't work, try a full wipe-ROM reflash. For future reference this should have been posted in Q&A.

[Q] Voicemail no longer working

I'm running CM11 with 4.4.2 and everything was working great. Today I tried to launch my sprint vvm app and it crashed. Opened it again, crashed. Rebooted, app crashed. So at this point I uninstalled and reinstalled the app and the installation fails.
I've tried every apk I can get my hands on and they all fail the installation.
I'm not sure where to go at this point and I'm hoping someone might have some advice or a fix that can remedy my problem. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
edit: Also, I've tried some of the other free voicemail apps but it appears that my calls are not being forwarded by Sprint. None of those free programs are working for me. =/
have you tried google voice? if you try it, just use it for voice mail and do not associate it with your sprint account.

That's an idea I had not thought of yet. I will give it a try and see if it works. Thanks for the reply.
edit: fixed a stupid question I asked.

LG G3 - custom ROM(s) 6, 7, 8 Ok Google not working

Hello,
I'm the proud owner of two D855 and one D858HK.
For about a week I've noticed that I cannot configure OkGoogle to work from any screen.
I tried Oreo, Nougat and Marshmallow ROMS.
I managed to make it work upon first install of a Marshmallow ROM, but after the first reboot, and Google updating its services everything stops working.
The microphone works because I can issue commands is I press the OkGoogle widget.
And here comes the problem.
I go to configure Assistant go to voice, OkGoogle and then move the toggle From nay screen, I get the voice training part and... I say OkGoogle as I did hundreds of times before. Nothing happens, as if the microphone was dead. But it's not.
So... I tried on both my D855 phones and on one V500 tablet.
It does not work!
The devices are rooted.
My Google account is in good order.
The language of the device AND the search language is set to English US.
I tried emptying the cache of the Google App...
I installed fresh ROMS.
I restored previous backups.
I'm running out of ideas and patience.
I need OkGoogle for my voice activated Taker profiles.
Any ideas?
So, I found out the culprit.
It's the Google app.
If I update it to the latest version I lose Ok Google.
So I must keep the current one.
I can confirm that Google app is creating this issue.
This post is written on Resurrection Remix Nougat.
So I uninstalled the Google update, trained the voice and everything works.
Now I must find a way to prevent Google from updating if I press, by mistake, the update all button on Google play.
First I tried to Detach app from Google store using Titanium Backup. It works, the app does not show on Google play. For a while. Then it appears in Google play...
Then I tried converting the app in a User app using Titanium Backup... And then Detach it from Google play. It worked. For now. The App itself, the Ok Google commands still work.
Nope...
After I made the Google App to be an user app and Detached it from the Google Play, after 3 hours I checked, it's still asking to update.
