Text to Speech - New Voices? - Hero CDMA General

Hello!
Does anyone know if its possible to change the voice that dictates the turn by turn on google navigation? Are there any new voices that can be added or just change the voice to a male voice? I have tried to go into settings and tried to change the voice in the Text-to-speech to British English and checked the "Always use my settings", still no change. Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Google Voice - disabling it

Does anyone know how to disable the Google Voice integration?
Right now the phone is set on using Google Voice by default and I cannot access the Google Voice icon nor change the settings when placing a call.
Thanks.
What do you mean you can't access the Google Voice Icon? If you mean that you can't find it, just type voice into the search box and it will bring it up.
Once you are in the app, press the menu button at the bottom of the screen and choose settings. Then choose the Making Calls option to change it.
Google voice icon and restoration
I mean exactly what I meant: the Google voice icon disappeared and there was no way to either launch it or reinstall it.
This is what I did to fix it: I did a clean phone from the bootloader and then I set Google Voice differently. I can now see the icon.
Just an FYI I think you can also change all of these settings by logging onto to https://www.google.com/voice

I'm guessing English is not your first language because you first appear to be asking how to disable Google Voice, then say you cannot find the icon, and your fix is even more confusing, saying you cleaned the phone from bootloader and set GVoice differently. Vague. And this whole thread is pointless.

Google Now Voice Search speach synthesis fix

If anyone here had a problem, such as myself, where when you ask google now voice search a question, but it doesnt reply to you through speech, the fix that worked for me is setting the default language of the phone to English Us, and then a synthesized voice will start answering you quetions, such as will it rain tomorrow? =)

[Q] Google Navigation US/UK Voice

After the update that incorporated Navigation into Google maps, the voice output has switched to the UK male voice.
I previously had it set to the US female voice and my Google Now, Text to speech and language settings are set to US English. I'm on CM10.1 Stable.
I've tried everything but it still reverts to UK Male for navigation and is the only time it does so.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to change it back?

[Q] Voice input missing off Google Keyboard since Lolipop !

I cant seem to enable voice to text input on my Google Keyboard.
When I go to settings to enable Voice Input Key it says "No voice input methods enabled. Check Language & Input Settings" ....
I have done that and Voice input is on "Enhanced Google Services" - The Basic recognition option also fails to enable Voice Input.
My Language is English UK.
But as far as I can see I cant seem to try anything to get it working as I found the feature handy a lot of the time.
It disappeared after upgrading to Lolipop and New Google Keyboard.
any ideas??
