can not train voice 'Ok Google' galaxy a5 - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe

Train google to recognize my voice so that I can call google assistant from any screen wont work. it says 'can't connect to microphone restart your device ' or something like that. Restarting doesn't help. Others who had the same pronblem fixed it by clearing data in the google app but that doesnt fix it for me.
Any help would be appreciated.

Check in the settings of the Svoice application that the wake-up voice feature is not activated, otherwise check in voice input in the device settings is set to google automatic.

I forgot to mention that already did disabled S voice.

I can't find the voice input setting in the settings.

I've solved it. Apparently just disabling s voice is not enough. I had to reanable it and do what you said. So in s voice I disabled wake up with voice command. Now it's working al fine. Thanks.

Google Voice Voicemail feature not working

Hey guys,
I am on Evo-deck v1.2 and I cannot get google voice voicemail working properly.
I followed the steps of installing the app, and dialing *287195825907 from my cell phone. When I do this, it says "welcome to verizon wireless..." (I'm on sprint though????). I've followed the directions to setting up the google voicemail on my evo online and on my phone.
On my phone's phone app under preferences, my voicemail handler is set to "none(dial voicemail number)" and an option for google voice is not even available. Any idea on how to fix this?

I would recommend uninstalling the app, then try re-setting it up.
tried that...no matter what i do, when i go to the preferences in the phone dialer, i do not see google voice as an option.

Well you would change the setting from the call settings under settings, and set voice mail to google voice.
it doesnt have google voice listed as an option despite me having followed the online instructions for setting up google voice
got it working.. just did the google online instructions. rebooted phone and then it started wroking

[TUTORIAL] How to replace the BLASTED VLINGO!!!

I could not stand the vlingo crap that Samsung put on the galaxy s2. The thing would not recognize what I was saying when I was just trying to make a call. I don't need the thing to type out a text message for me, I just need to be able to make calls hands free with my bluetooth. Another plus is that the Google Voice Dialer does not require network connectivity to do the voice recognition unlike vlingo. Here's how to do it. You gotta have root to do this. If you want vlingo back, push VoiceToGo.apk from here to /system/app
1. Download VoiceDialer.apk from here
2. remount via adb
3. Push VoiceDialer.apk to /system/app/VoiceToGo.apk
Now you have the stock Google voice dialer that detects commands better than vlingo, at least for me.
This also works by renaming VoiceSearch.apk to VoiceToGo.apk....the google voice search that's on the phone works pretty well for dialing also, but will allow you to search google for stuff via your bluetooth headset also.
I think this option is already available under settings -> voice input and output -> voice recognition -> change to Google from Samsung voice powered by vlingo.
Correct me if I am wrong though.
It did nothing for me, vlingo would come up even with google selected

you can download google voice search from the market and when you hit the "search" button on your phone for the first time it will ask which one you want as default

Google Voice Search and Google Voice Dialer are 2 different apps.
When I first longpressed the search key, it offered vlingos voice talk or googles voice search as the two options, and I had set googles as the default and since forgot about vlingo.
I bought ifrogz luxe earbuds today, and when I click the remote, the dreaded vlingo launches. Im not rooted, and was wondering if I could make it launch googles voice search instead.
Yeah, samsung cheated and locked vlingo to the headset key. Thanks. I was hoping that someone would fix this before an aosp rom came out

Thanks for this. Vlingo is the worst app I have ever used for bluetooth dialing.

I have reason to believe that vlingo does not in fact use the bluetooth microphone when you activate it with bluetooth, even if you do set it in the settings. After I installed my exhaust in my car the microphone icon was fully lit when I was driving because it was picking up the rumbling. I get no problems with google voice dialing or even when I set the voice search for the bluetooth voice dial.
I can't get this to work, I pushed the apk as instructed, I connect my blue tooth and press the button, but i get no prompt.
Make sure to remount for r/w access, push to system/app as VoiceToGo.apk not VoiceDialer.apk and if ask else fails, delete the old VoiceToGo.apk before pushing. You can always do it via root explorer too
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
thanks, I did use root explorer and rename it to VoiceToGo before pushing. I should note that I did not have an old voicetogo.apk .... could that be my problem?
What ROM are you running? VoiceToGo is vlingo voice app, if you have it running and the apk doesn't exist, I'm not sure what you could do. You could try install the voicedial.apk

Works great on my epic 4g touch. The google voice search has worked better than vlingo for me so this is great. I couldn't do it with the adb, I kept getting a remount error but the root explorer was simple and easy. Also, fyi you can replace vlingo with the app google car home for when you dock it in the samsung car dock. This is a much better interface that also uses google voice search. Check this link out and make sure to follow his instructions on the order of install.

Note: Voice dialing worked as stated in my post. But for voice search to execute when the bluetooth button is pressed I had to install bluetooth launcher from the market. In bluetooth launcher choose voice search, then I chose com.google.android.voicesearch.recognitionactivity. This only worked after I had replaced the vlingo app with voice dialer.

Yeah, I tried that Bluetooth launcher app but it still would launch vlingo, that's why I went on my quest to replace it

I have to say guys, I have had the exact opposite experience on my original Epic 4G. The Google Voice Dialer is single handedly THE worst piece of crap I have ever used. Not once has it ever properly understood my commands. Google Voice Search thankfully does as well as this Vlingo app when I took it from an Epic 4G Touch and pushed it to my Epic 4G. Both of these programs work near flawless for me for proper voice detection. I've had such horrible experiences with the stock Voice Dialer that I delete it from every ROM I use upon first boot. So I'm not sure why you are singing Voice Dialer's praises when it simply isn't true at all.

maybe it's your Bluetooth headset. I have a jawbone hero and I NEVER have issues with it recognizing and interpreting what I say. Vlingo NEVER interprets what I say. It's as if it doesn't utilize the Bluetooth and it's using the phone's microphone.

I prefer google voice search to voice dial just because it can execute more commands although voice dial has worked well for me. As far as getting the bluetooth button to launch voice search it does work for me when I replaced the vling with voice dial. Then select bluetooth launcher and select voice search. Then it comes up with a dialog box asking which program you want to use as your default bluetooth launcher(voice search) or voice dial. But it's all for not really because voice search does not use the bluetooth headset microphone for input so I went back to voice dial for now. Come on Google add bluetooth microphone input for voice search.

Replacing VoiceToGo.apk with voicesearch.apk gave me Bluetooth recognition. Only thing I didn't like about it was that it didn't repeat my command back to me

Is there one that repeats the command and asks for confirmation like Microsoft Voice Command does on Windows Mobile? I hate not being able to cancel if it guesses wrong.

[Q] VZW Galaxy Nexus + Google Voice Installation

Has anyone had any trouble getting the google voice voicemail set up on the VZW galaxy nexus? Whenever i get to the voicemail section it gives me the error
"Carrier config: unfortunately your network carrier is currently not supported for automatic configuration. To use google voice as your voicemail provider, please visit google voice help center for more information".
Going to the help center has nothing on how to manually set it up.... My droid 2 had no problem setting this up automatically... am I missing something?

I've done those steps, but they didnt work. The *71, *90 and *92 also didn't work in my situation.
I eventually ended up uninstalling on the phone, and deactivating and then reactivating the vvm from the web admin panel. The *71 number worked, and then reinstalled voice on the phone. It worked after that.
It seems that the error i posted in OP is present always for verizon. Still works if you manually dial the instructed number. Not sure why....
try to have someone call you and leave a voicemail message. i've only had my nexus for a couple days but i was able to set google voice up on the first day. i got the error that it couldn't be set up the normal way but in the settings and everything it looked ok and i had someone leave me a message and everything worked like it was supposed to.
Hey I hate to bring up this old thread but Ive been troubleshooting this problem long enough so I figured I would ask here.
I'm having trouble getting google voice to work the way I want to. I set it up and it seems to work, whenever people leave me voice mails my google voice app pops up and transcribes it and gives me a notification of a new voice mail. But I cant seem to set custom voice mails for specific contacts. As a matter of fact I cant seem to change my voice mail at all...it just says my recorded name.
So I go on my computer to google voice and make changes to my voice mail greeting and these changes are not reflected in my phone. Also I call my google voice number on my phone and try to change the voice mail there but it also doesn't change it.
Sorry this is long and confusing but maybe one of you know what I'm talking about

[Q] Call to a contact using voice command

I was wondering if it is possible to call to a contact in your phone using voice command. I checked S voice and see that there options to answer/reject calls. But did not find a way to call to a specific contact.
Google voice search would be a help, but again it seems to be down when I dont have a data/wifi connection. Is there an inbuilt facility to do this over voice command ? or if I need to fish in apps store which one do you recommend ?
Thanks in advance ..
AFAIK there is option to dial number with S voice too
Anyway i am using this app, and best part it records your own voice so never fails to recognise. and no need to have data connection.
Just use Google Now... It's built in...

RESOLVED - Google Voice voicemail with Advanced calling on

Has anyone been able to get Google Voice voicemail to work on VZW M9 with Verizon's advanced calling VoLTE?
It worked fine without Advanced calling VoLTE.
With advanced calling on, callers get the "Voicemail has not been set up" message.
I've been using Google Voice for a long time on several VZW devices with no problems.
Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Mark....its probably been so long since you setup. You need to login to your google voice number and find the buried setup menu under settings. In there you will find a number that starts off *71 you need to dial that full number to forward voicemail traffic back to google voice. When you activate volte, they snuck in basic vvm which cleared your voicemail forwarding.

Yeah Doug, already tried the *71xxxxxxxx *90xxxxxxxx *92xxxxxxx set-up again. Still no luck.
It was saying the voicemail was not set up, before.
Now it just says the call could not be completed, if I don't pick up.
Beginning to think Google voice is just not compatible with "Advanced calling".

You only need one forwarding number so now you are probably all screwed up. I have two family members i fixed after they enabled advanced calling. Trust me when i say it, advanced calling is not the problem. The fact it cleared your call forwarding voicemail is to blame. Look up your google voice forwarding setup in your google voice settings using a pc browser. Dial *73 and hit call. Then dial the *71 thats in your google voice setup and nothing else!

***EDIT*** Resolved -
With Google Voice there are 2 numbers.
One to call and check your voicemail, and the second is the number you forward missed calls to.
The first one is very easy to find, it's posted all over when you log in.
The second one, however, is buried so deep in it took forever for me to find.
Once I forwarded to the correct number, all works great.
PS, Thanks Doug for your help.
Would someone be able to do a step by step for me?
I have tried absolutely everything.

Just to fix your Google voicemail?
Make sure when you login to get the phone number you need to dial in phone to activate google voice that you are logged into Google Voice via your PC web browser. It's in settings.
google.com/voice
click the gear in the upper right hand corner. Middle of the screen there's either "activate voicemail" or "deactivate voicemail" You can click that to toggle between the clear all forwarding (*73) and whatever number your phone needs to activate voicemail. THAT is the only number you should dial on your phone to activate it.
