Man, this thing is so annoying. I have a habit of double-tapping the home button to get to my desktop and I suppose the new function goes to Voice Talk. I don't want it to go there and I can't remove/remap it. Any clue on how to get rid of it?
yah thats in settings, go to motions in settings and uncheck double tap! that should fix it
You'll have to wait till our phones get rooted to completely remove any stock apps.

That does not fix it for me, I have all motion turned off, and still get the vlingo terms of service when I double tap home. Which I then decline every time. Very Annoying.
Same issue here. I want it to behave like Sense and display all of my homescreens (zoomed out). What does the 'home' key have to do with Voice Talk and Vlingo anyway?!
What would u like to do ???
Lol cant get it off either
Tmo Galaxy S2
Damn near a deal breaker
I like the plain voice commands from android and I'd like to do what I've been doing for the last couple of years - push the headset button, say what I want and have it just happen. I'm going to play with this a while longer but I'm going to give the phone back if it doesn't work exactly like I want. It's too much money to live with like I did the Vibrant - till the guys here made it work.
I don't mind something being no removable if there's an option to use something else. If any of you know how to change the settings so the original vlingo by Samsung isn't the automatic choice, that would be greatly appreciated.
Yep checked off double tap and it still goes into voice talk

UNinstall voice command-voice talk- voice search using titanium backup if rooted. if not rooted- see previous posts.
I prefer the vlingo app from market(which needs voice search app,also available in market).

It's been gone since the first update from when the phone was released... I don't know exactly which update, but I noticed it being gone after an OTA.
One easy way if your running ICS is to install go Launcher, open app drawer, long press voice command icon, un install, Vlingo gone! Un install go Launcher. No rooting required.
HOLY SHII
This solution that GDF01 is talking about, is not only very easy, but also very awesome! I removed Voice talk and Chat and other stuff, and i ICS-froze Readers Hub and all that stuff, so now I have a fully functional and great phone, without rooting or anything! Thanks!!
Anyone know how to use the native messaging app through google voice? I know there is an option within the app but it uses different phone numbers for the incoming so when you respond it will know you its going to.
What I am looking for is something that will full integrate, using my contacts phone numbers when they message me. Also when i start a thread from within the messaging app i want it to go through google voice. I found this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mdrtools.apps.gvintegration&hl=en
But is that the only way to make it happen? Thanks!

Same.. I used to use that all the time but now I'm on an unlimited plan.
If you're rooted, I've found that this app works perfectly for me on the Nexus:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...vintegration.free&feature=more_from_developer
Disclaimer: I've got the paid version. This is the free one and I don't know what the difference is haha.

I just loaded the free one, cant tell the difference between the paid and the free. This app got a lot of bad reviews so i was skeptical... seems to be working ok. How is your battery life with it?
Also I am on an unlimited plan as well, i just want to start giving out my GV number and not my regular number anymore... Time for a change
I haven't had any trouble with battery life. There was an older version of the app that sucked down battery, but since it's been updated I haven't noticed any appreciable decrease.
The free version is apparently a trial version.

Neither the last one nor this one work for me. I'm on Lifeless V9. They both open, but both fail to verify the account. Voicemails remain on the server only; no downloads or notifications of anythinh come in.

I've never done that before. I found a Youtube video that seems to outline the process. Does this seem correct?
Find apk in Root Explorer
Copy file
Try pasting it into /system/media
If not, choose "Mount R/W" button so it says "Mount R/O"
Paste again
Hold down on APK and choose permissions
Check:
Owner - Read write
Group - Read
Otheres - Read
Uncheck rest
Click OK
File should show "rw-r-r" under the name
Move this file to system/app
Click back once and click "Mount R/O" at top right
Reboot

The reason the visual voicemail does not work on Lifeless is because some of the Sprint bloat that is removed is needed by visual voicemail. If you install one of the stock V9 rooted (i recommend the one by b-reezy) your visual voicemail will work. As long as you are on Lifeless or Imperium you can use Google Voice as a work-around. At least this has been my findings after trying several other work-arounds with no luck. I too am on Lifeless V9 ... I love the ROM so I am willing to deal with the lack of visual voicemail. It has been my experience that it's interpretations of what the caller actually said were not too accurate anyways. Hope this helps.

Oh, I don't care about voice to text; I just want my voicemails without having to call my voicemail box!
Can you point me to info on using Google Voice as a workaround?

Just download the Google Voice app from the Play Store and go through the set-up, it will make your voicemail notifications and stuff with voicemail work. Sprint has some type of agreement with Google voice and u can assign your mobile number as your google voice number, but this can cause some undesirable effects for some users (mainly caller ID issues with your outgoing texts and calls) I eventually uninstalled Voice and disabled my mobile number from being my voice number. It is easy to set up, u can also go to www.google.com/voice and set up some other options there from your PC.

Yea I had to uninstall it as well. I wasn't able to send or receive calls. Even after uninstalling it I still had to go onto a computer to take my number off the account. I tried setting it up later without using my number but i didn't see where it gave me an option of assigning me a number.

Any luck with this? I just flashed the most amazing ROM I've found, Spleef's CARBON 4.3 20130930 and the only only thing it doesn't do is voicemail. It has the Google Voice in the build, and I've been getting texts from sprint when I get a VM, but it links me to a number that doesn't give me the message, and I have to long-press the (1) to get into the VM to check.
I'd love to even have the VM icon available, but can't even get that... HELP! :silly:

The Sprint voicemail apk works fine on the AOSP ROMs.
Finally this phone working again. Woot! Here is the latest VVM from Sprint.

This seems like a silly question, but I can't seem to find the voice recorder app on the HTC One. I see it under settings->apps->all, but there doesn't seem to be a way to actually access it. I've tried adding widgets/apps/shortcuts but it's not there.

I was wondering the same thing. Voice Recorder and Stocks can be seen in a custom launcher like Nova or Apex or an app called Control Center in the Play store. However, Stocks app is broken. This is not the case with other providers. Gotta love Verizon! lol

Well Its funny but the same problem happened with me while using my xperia.. and I used to use that application via whats app voice message as if they are not sent , they just got saved in gallery...and after a long time i didnt find it exactly where it is in phone and then I just downloaded a separate app for it.....:laugh:
I remember this problem when i had my dinc 4G I before s-off the device. I can't remember the EXACT steps to get it to show up, but i got it to show up as a shortcut. I don't have this phone YET, but i will tell you what i can remember.
1) Download ES file explorer.
2) Go into the device system/app folder and locate the HTCsound recorder apk , and try to install it. If you are not rooted it will fail. That is fine.
3) In ES file explorer go to tools - > app manager then system apps and find the htc sound recorder.
4) Long press it until it checks and then go to the menu and choose send to desktop.
This is how i got a SHORTCUT to the app on my non rooted dinc 4G.
I honestly do not know if it will work with this phone but though i throw it out to see if someone can try.
I prefer to use Easy Voice Recorder since it is capable of recording phone calls (incoming and outgoing voice) with no special setup. Not that I really need to record calls, but cool that the feature is there, unlike the built in recorder which pauses the recording when a phone call starts up

Thanks, this was super helpful. A more direct route might be to download QuickShortcutMaker, and then to search for "recorder". That brings up the HTC recorder app, and easily creates a shortcut to the home screen.

I am using Google Calendar and don't want to use the pre-installed LG Calendar app.
It's not possible to uninstall it nor disable it from Android settings.
I tried to stop the app and remove all its permissions but somehow they get automatically restored, making me receive double notifications for the same event, one from the Google app and one from the LG app.
The only way I could think of to avoid this issue is to disable all my calendars in the "Calendars to display" settings of the LG app.
The app is still running (and consuming CPU and battery) but at least I don't get the double notifications anymore.
Does anyone have a better idea on how to completely remove/disable the LG Calendar app?
