I've searched and have found that with android 4.1.2 there is a problem with Swiftkey keyboard(or any other paid keyboard) not saving as default
after reboot. What I've found is that if I remove all other keyboards' apk it will solve the problem. I've done this except for "Google Voice Search".
I'd like to keep that. And now voice search pops up as default. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
Edit: Well I went ahead with deleting voice search with one problem...doesn't exist under that name. Any help finding it?
I use Swiftkey as my default and i don't have that problem.. If you've Greenified Swiftkey, remove from it.. And please don't create new threads unless its an important issue..
Its a normal bug of Sony´s Firmware.

Hi, I´m not certain that my issue is limited to the Desire but here goes...
Am I the only one experiencing that when I Start up endomondo tracker that after about a second or two my desire opens android market and shows search results as if I had searched for speechsynthesis data?
Well it is difficult to answer, when i dont know the exact app, but the speechsynthesis data from the market is for use with the android tts(text to speech). Is it possible, that this app uses some kind of text to speech to give messages through the speaker?
It is probarbly because the app needs this data file, and it should be fine, if you just install it.
Hope it helps
Yes it does. I use this app. I already have installed the voice to text IME mod which is available in this site somewhere. The app gives you pep talks amd has an audio coach built into it.
Try and install the IME mod and see if that works, as I haven't come across this problem.

(Here you go this is the thread for voice mod)
I have been using the app now for a long time and have text to speech installed, try downloading and installing tts from the market place and then re-launching endomondo
Hi, i have a HTC Desire unroot and unbranded and fully updated to everything that is possibly out for the device. lately for some odd reason when i use apps such as google map navigation or the new google translate (with the sms translate and convo translate) it has been speaking program codes for the google map navigation and for the google translate, especially the asian dialogs and some other language. Currently have the espeaktt selected for voice output, i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling but the same problem still consist. I don't know if its cause the apps are still in beta or is it just me. If its just me can anyone help me and tell me how to fix this problem?
Thank you
From what I understand of your post it does sound like its a bug in their app. If the app is reading you system code instead of the proper directions. It is most likely a problem inside the app. You should report the issue to the developer via the appropriate channels.

thanks a lot for the info. I just tried the google maps navigation with another voice engine and it was fine so if I'm not mistaken i think its the espeaktt app.

Hi
I am using 2.3.4 through Gingerbread V3
Wondering if you can install a different dialer, maybe there is a thread somewhere with dialers.
Why?
Because this one does not search my contacts for the letters entered on the dialer, very annoying.
cheers
fusk
T9 dialer. I use GO contacts to circumvent this. And also has a vibrate on connect from Sense roms.
Thanks, going to have a look at that.
Other suggestions are still welcome.
EDIT:
Just noticed it does not support Danish, neither does GO contacts.
That is a problem if their name contains æ ø å.
Also I noticed that third party apps since 2.3 no longer have access to the phone state, so your missed calls counter is going to accumulate. Most irritating. I hope Go team solves the it in the upcoming versions.
That'll most likely be fixed, but missing language support probably won't come right around the corner.
Btw. i'll try post this question in themes and apps, seems more relevant and might get more answers, so moving this to themes & apps.

Please forgive me, I have searched but 'Google Now' isn't a great search term...
Basically, I get no voice feedback when using voice search or the Google Now app on my 4.1.1 Jelly Bean update. Initially I was underwhelmed by Google Now and wondered what the fuss was, until I discovered it should be talking back to me in a Siri-like fashion.
I had the leaked 4.1 I/O release previously and same issue. Language is English and I have voice prompts turned on in the search settings.
Any ideas? It's a Google stock ROM and it never worked, so I really don't know what it could be.
Edit: Nevermind, same discussion here. Too bad there's no time-limited delete functionality here, feel free to delete.
Try this
There is my solution:
- Set your locale to whatever you want
- Set the Google Now Voice Language to English US
- Voice Output to Always
- Remove the tick(untick the box) on Hide Offensive Words
I spent hours of tinkering with this and tried all kinds of options, but in the end that solved it for me. This is because recently there was an update to Google Search, which is the application designation for Google Now and it introduced this bug.
I have my locale to my native one English UK en-GB and everything works like a charm as it should be and as it used to work before the update.

Make sure that you have downloaded the offline speech recognition in English US and maybe try asking something like "What's the time?". It will not talk back to all questions. Only the ones that were specifically pre-programmed. If it still doesn't work, try putting your system locale to English US and restarting your phone. And most importantly update your Talkback, Google Search and Google Voice search apps to their latest through the Play Store.
What I did now officially works on my O2 HTC One S and 3UK HTC One X, so it works for sure on those two.
I hope this helps
When i'am using the swiftkey keyboard, (or swype for that matter), i do not get word predicitons in some text fields such as :-
1) Stock browser Search
2) Google Play Search Box,
And many other places.
IT is quite annoying because, the main idea of these apps is to provide meaningful predictions.. Is there anyway to fix this?
But what to Fix?

No. There's nothing wrong to get fixed!
Even with the HTC Sense Input, we don't get word suggestions in Stock or any other browser's address bar and play Store Search box as there we don't need any grammer.
The phone knows that the name of the website (in case of browser's address box) and the name of an app (in case of play store's search box) may not be there feeded in the dictionary. The names of the websites or apps aren't words that are there in a dictionary. But when you type a message, you're typing a language which needs grammar and these words used are there in the dictionary so the phone will automatically provide you word suggestions.

Dude, I agree in case of google play you probably don't require predictions..
But, wouldnt it be helpful if you had predictions if if u were searching for something loooong in the browser..
And as i said , they were only two examples... the predicions also don't work in text fields of 3rd party apps.
with swype u can save a word in the custom dictionary and, just "swype" to get those words/email id's/usernames/numbers passwords even in ANY text
So its was quite annoying when i switched over to swiftkey.
I heard the bug is fixed in android 4.0.4? Is there a workaround?
