Looking for calculator app suggestions - Huawei Mate 20 X Questions & Answers

Just got my L29 and not a big fan of the calculator. I really miss the one that came on my Asus Zenfone 3 ultra ZU680KL. But I doubt I can install it on this phone. It had a great unit converter function and currency converter.
I know there is a million options out there, but I'm looking for suggestions on what apps to look at or try out.
I don't need a scientific calculator, just something nicely layed out. Unit converter and currency converter would be a plus.
Here is a link to the calculator I miss.

So what does that mean in layman's terms? Sorry I'm not smart when it comes to this stuff.

It means you can download it from the link I posted and install it on your phone.
The phone will complain that it doesn't have permission to install from unknown sources but after you enable it, you'll be able to install.

Can't see what the fuss is about. Almost anything I ask, Utter responds with "I'm afraid I don't understand" or something similar. This one is a WHOLE lot better http://urly.fi/4as

Then you are holding it wrong! LOL I have tried a lot of these voice command assistants, from the S-voice from Samsung to Dragon beta, IRIS, Maanuba, vlingo, and your speaktoit; you name it, I may have tried it. None of them comes close to utter. Which of the other apps can take a verbal instruction to take a freakin screenshot or change the governors on your phone?? None that I have personally come across.
And to boot, this app comes from an XDA member. Who doesn't love that? I'm going to throw money at him as soon as he is able to. There's a lot of work that went in to it and ben(the dev), IMO deserves some fundage. :good:
This app is so clever, just been playing around with it and Tasker, between the 2 apps I can do everything I want. Awesome.
Why does it want root access?

Reboot, set kernel, and a few other things require it.
but you do not have to be rooted to use Utter, and its not doing anything dodgy that you need to worry about, its just so that you can get Utter to do certain things which need root access, if you dont do those things, it doesnt need root access.
Why isn't this bloke working for the Google Now team??

It seems to not recognize my Minnesooooooootan accent perfectly. Some of the commands it seems not to be able to understand. Works OK for most things though. It's still a keeper.

in the customisation menu, you can change/replace words, so for example if every time you say "house" it hears "has" you can tell utter to recognise "house", that may help, or you can try one of the other voice recognition engines in the recognition and voices menu like ispeech or dragon nuance.

Looking at the latest comments on the YouTube video, it looks like Brandall will be bringing some great updates to Utter soon including a car mode possibly and more bluetooth support.

Motorola touchless control APK

Here's a link to check it out. Not sure if it works. If anybody wants to test out the APK, please report back with your results.
Thanks but the app is only installable on the ULTRA, MAXX, Mini, and Moto X.
it installs without problems, but doesn't appear in appdrawer, and playstore says it's incompatible with the One
I have installed the .apk, but can't start it, as it isn't present as an actual app. I think, we also need the settings app directly from the Moto X/Droid Series, in order to be able to set up the actual touchless cotrols app.
Application installed just fine on my Telus Galaxy S3 with CM10.2. Added the activities shortcut through Nova Launcher. Tried to launch each activity but it just crashed.
Rebooted and continuous errors.
There's something unique in Motorola's framework similar to TouchWiz/Sense etc. I know this is the HTC One forums, but I felt like trying it out
lol i like how the OP post an apk wants people to test but it too scared to test it himself
wont work...but
why not try something that really works (touchless gesture that is)

Maybe we can try by changing the build.prop of the phone. We did the same with Facebook Home and it seemed to work. Anyone can try this out?

are you following me from phone to phone over the years? :silly:
i've got the air gestures half working (screen on, scroll through browser etc) gonna try and get the rest working later on...
as for motorola touchless control apk it will never work without the motorola chip inside
Touchless controls is going to require a Motorola Phone. It requires a specific low-core processor that allows the phone to be constantly listening, if we kept the mic in our phones on 24/7 without Motorola's specific hardware, our battery would die in 1 hour.

That would be the other way round.

No luck. I give up. Had a couple of responses earlier, like opening browser when it was already opened and requesting root.
Have you guys tryd using a logcat to see what it keeps looking for before it crashes just saying then we could have a better understanding.

Talking of Tom Cruise, he's like Sense 5. Remember the sense on our desire? Sense 5 looks just like that. I wonder how mimi Rogers looks like standing next to him today.

I was at work and couldn't download it and play with it. I have since tried it (it failed for me too), and have done some more digging. Apparently, the Moto X has a core in it's processor made to do just this. We do not have that core. Looks like this is a lost cause...
Stop saying core! It's a DSP, noting 'core' about that. .
But yes, this is useless without that chip. There is a app on play store that does the same thing and you can even set the wake phrase ('Jarvis!'). Haven't tried it so I cannot comment on battery, but I'm sure it uses quite a bit.

Nexus 5
Is this going to be able to work with the nexus 5 because is has the same snapdragon 800 or will it still struggle? So disappointed the nexus 5 doesn't feature some of the moto x impressive features like touchless control and amazing battery. Otherwise it is a great phone!

Didn't anybody tell you? We're obliged to mess around with our phones, edit build.props, you know, stuff that could render our devices as, well.....paperweights really, just so the op can laugh at our expense.
How about OP, you install on your device, if it doesn't work....bad times, if it does work, post a solution. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it!

Missing Dictionaries

Where are they? I've seen them in review videos. The option to highlight the word then select dictionary, English to spanish, etc would be handy. Is it only missing on Verizon or does anyone know?
I just tried this for the first time and it gave me the option to download the English version and it worked. I do not see any other options though.
English is the only option.

Damn Verizon they can never leave things alone. That was one thing i was like cool i can use Spanish one also been paying with learning it and figured hey that would help. They always seem to take out the small stuff that you can use like the settings screen can't change to another view that the reviews have either.

I have the sprint variant and i too only have the english dictionary. Sucks.
Is there a way to get the files for the other dictionaries? It really sucks that I only have access to the English dictionary. Using Verizon.
Sent from my SM-N910V using Tapatalk
I dunno. Hopefully someone will figure it out..I really hate the way carriers strip things to make room for their garbage.
The Tmobile version also only has English. Could have something to do with rights inside the USA. Anyway hope we can download them somewhere
Anyone figure out how to download other language dictionaries? I have the same problem with Tmobile Note 4....does it have anything to do with being rooted?

Global rom, extract, and then move with root? Possibility.

There must be some way to install languages on US version. Please see this video of 10 hidden features of Note 4. This guy has T-mobile note 4.

Eventually the developer of Yourtube will update soon.
Most of Lollipops changes and design is a good refresh from what KitKat offered. Most of you may dislike it at first but personally, I'm finally glad to see changes from the old 4.0.

Hi guys! If you have problem installing the YouTube material, you will just need to update your Google play services before you update to YouTube material design.. I just discover this by myself.. Maybe in my so many expirences force closing my YouTube.. Sorry for my bad English ?

Working on my Android P Moto X4 after enabling storage permission.
I downloaded an apk from apkmirror directly when it released, and it worked out immediately.
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/sounds/sounds-2-0-223598125-release/
That's the APK i used.
Has someone extracted the audio files from this yet, the new Retro Riff collection is dope, I was running a custom ROM now back to stock Oreo, I miss these new sounds.
If anyone has extracted all audio files, please let me know. TIA
How do we access this? For some reason this month sounds 2.0 apk won't open. I've tried a few ROMs already.
