that will not work..... I have to voice seach in google nav. and my seach bar does not have it as well.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=667387
Not available in Canada currently because it only supports English.
found how to get it.. just do a seach on google for "com.google.android.voicesearch.apk" and download and install and it works.. copy it to your SD card to install it.
nevermind it just crashes out. worked on my x10 tho
here this version works
hmm... if you are talking about the Bell version it comes in the stock ROM
it's labelled as "Voice Dialler"
but it is not only voice dialing, when you speak to it, it comes back with search results for both software and contacts, if you execute either one, it launches the app, or it dials the contact

thanks it does work
Earlier today I change the sell code to english and ta-daaa: voice search appeared. I'm actually looking for a way to get rid of it right now
You lose all your data though. So if you're gonna try it, go ahead and back up. I use Titanium back up (I don't love it, though: you have to stay by the phone waiting to give the green like* everytime an app is being re-installed).
EDIT: *light
sell code?...
Hmmm, maybe that's not its name. Anyway: *#272*HHMM# change HHMM for your local time, so if it's 12:30 it should look like: *#272*1230#.
Once there, check the codes http: //samsung-firmware . webs . com / samsunglettercode . htm (remove blanks) and apply the english one.
i get only this page when i google sell code samsung... so i'm not sure if such a thing exist.
anyway the 272 trick doesn't work on my i9000.

Market didn't have "google commands" but it had "voice commands". Voice commands was listed as free but when i clicked on the link it said "not found"
I tried both appbrain and android market.
Anyone have the apk for voice command or google command?
I'm not exactly sure why voice input was removed, probably a combination of the fact that it doesn't support french and also that Samsung stripped out the default android keyboard (which has the microphone button) and replaced it with 2 far superior keyboards: their own, and swype. I guess that's the one downside of swype is you don't get the voice input button.
However Samsung did include Vlingo for free (I'm aware that Vlingo has since become free for all phones since the updated google voice commands were announced for froyo). Vlingo is actually far better than the google voice input (at least for 1.5-2.1) as it gives you commands as well as the text entry. You can also setup the Vlingo keyboard which is essentially the stock Android 2.1 keyboard including the mic button.
From what I can tell it detects words just as well as the google service. Vlingo lets you put widgets of any size (1x1 to full screen) so this kinda makes up for the missing mic button on the google search widget.
I would imagine when the 2.2 update comes out we will have the google function back with multi language support and commands!
well Nirvana388 beat me to it, i was going to recommend Vlingo as well

Thanks, but Vlingo requires internet right? My old phones had voice recognition without the requirement of internet.
Ravi84m suggested "google commands" because it doesn't require internet??
Does anyone know how to replace the Motorola voice search with the Froyo 2.2 Google default voice search. I used the Google one on my nexus one and it is much, much better than the Motorola version.
Thanks for any help.
Do you mean the double tap home button action?
If so, go to Settings > Application Settings > Double tap home launch
Then scroll down to Voice Search
No, I mean when you have a bluetooth headset on and press the button it launches the Moto voice app. I'd like it to launch the google voice command program.

It works fine with 2.2. Actually I believe the Moto version worked with 2.1. It's just slow and not as accurate as the 2.2 built in google version.
There seems to be no way to change the default voice choice. I've thought about deleting the moto voice to see if I could then use the google but haven't yet.
I believe the Nexus One/Droid has an additional APK that allows this. VoiceDial or something like that.
I'd rather use the google one instead of the slow, limited Nuance Motorola version.

No, the Nexus One brings up the same voice search application that you can get from the market and launch manually. It's just set up so that it also launches when you hit your bluetooth button. Seems like there should be some way of changing which program is default for voice search.
OK... I think there is mucho confusion about programs here.
Voice Command = program from Nuance. This currently launches when you long press the dial button on the bluetooth headset. It DOES support input from the Bluetooth headset. This program has a limited/specific command set.
Voice Search - the default Android program. Can be activated by Long pressing the search button (hardware key). It was updated in the 2.2 release (I think you can also download the latest version via market). It DOES NOT support input from bluetooth. This too has a limited command set, but anything outside of it's commands will be launched as a web search.
I think what we are after here is for 'Voice Search' to be the default app launched when Long-Press Bluetooth is issued.
My point was that Voice Search doesn't support BT input. But I wish it did.

Once again, In 2.2 the "Voice Search" app by Google works with bluetooth. I have it currently working on my nexus one. Please see http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.2-highlights.html#PlatformTechnologies
All I'm trying to figure out is when I long press the bluetooth button on my headset that it launch Google's "Voice Search" application versus Motorola's built in Voice Search application.

@gchglobal How does Voice Search work w/ Bluetooth? You mean you can push the the Voice Search on the phone and then speak into your Bluetooth?
If so, are you sure your phone isn't just picking up your voice?
I moved from Iphone this spring. I am using MDOB now. Samsung Svoice never seems to get my voice commands right; can't find the right contact and totally gets my music voice commands wrong. For example, always thinks I'm asking for "back" when I say "beck"-- the only thing in my library.
Siri was an order of magnitude better at all this. Google is better at general voice recognition, but doesn't work with AT&T/Samsung. I tried and get a google dialer popup and it won't control the Samsung music app.
Should I go to Google Edition? Will Google correctly work over bluetooth headset for music and calls? Is it more accurate than Svoice?
Help!

When you refer to "Google is better at general voice recognition, but doesn't work with AT&T/Samsung.", what specifically are you referring to? I use Google Now and it's voice recognition and it works perfectly fine for me? Google Now is integrated in the new Google app. You can also access it from holding the menu haptic button.
Google Now does not control anything. Does not control music, texting, etc. on a Samsung/ATT device.
So my question, and I guess this is the wrong place to ask it since nobody seems to know here, is will AOSP or plain vanilla google ROMs do as good a job as Siri at controlling music via bluetooth headphones, texting, etc. etc.?
I am on a Galaxy S8 and Android 7.0.
Following this guidance, http://lifehacker.com/how-to-create-custom-voice-commands-with-tasker-and-aut-1282209195, I installed Tasker and AutoVoice. Google app already installed. I enabled Autovoice accessibility service and AutoVoice Google Now integration.
OK Google is enabled on all screens.
However, when I say "OK Google, use Autovoice" Google consistantly comes back with "It looks like your AutoVoice account is not linked yet." How do I do this?
When I run AutoVoice Testing with my trigger words, they work. I have another 6.0 Android device where all this (Tasker, Autovoice, Google Now) works seamlessly.
Is there some other step required for S8 / Android 7.0 go get AutoVoice integrated with Google Now?

There is a difference between using the Google now voice search and using Google assistant. The running service is for Google now. The screenshot you posted is of Google assistant, in which you have to be apart of the Google + community for the app in order for it to work.
If you're just looking for basic usage, use Google now voicesearch and not Google assistant

Thank you very much! This is the first clue I've been handed to the source of my problem. You are right. On my px5 head unit, there are no settings for Google Assistant. On my S8, there are. However, I don't know why they are there, or how to disable Google Assistant without disabling OK Google. When I disable GA and speak "OK Google", it immediately asks me to turn GA back on to respond. Do you know how I can resolve this? Again, thanks!

Never mind. I found it: https://android.gadgethacks.com/how...ndroid-device-switch-back-google-now-0174676/
Problem is, don't have root on Galaxy S8. Google REALLY needs to give us the option for something like this instead of forcing it down our throats whether we like it or not!!!

You should be able to do it with a shortcut. I use Nova launcher and just use the voice search shortcut and it uses Google now. Or if you have a Google search bar on your screen with the mic in it, that should default to Google voice search and not assistant

No problem man. I use tasker, autovoice, and autoremote religiously haha. Too much home automation and laziness not to utilize them. You should look into the natural language it can now use. Takes a while to understand and set up, but after that, it's much better than regular recognize

I'm having fun, and pulling my hair out, just trying to get this going right now. At least twice this week I was in my car (head unit not installed yet) and really wanted to send time sensitive messages on my s8 using Google Voice. I don't text and drive, religiously. But being able to say "google voice text so-and-so" would have been quite useful.
One last, final question: I've been learning tasker/autovoice on a rooted px5. Just got this galaxy s8 and, of course, it's not rooted. Looks like I shell commands a lot in my profiles, particularly "input keyword" and "input text".
So, if I want to send %avcommnofilter as response to app, do you recommend autoinput for that?

FINALLY! This is how you link AutoVoice (or any 3rd party app) to Google Assistant: https://productforums.google.com/d/msg/websearch/HwJUpkrHPr4/xIJACIlEAwAJ
So, you have to say "OK, Google, ask Autovoice to...." followed by your AutoVoice command. Still wish I could just say "OK, Google" then command, but this will do for now.
Have You got any ideas, how to force phone to use GA commands, instead of google app voice commands? The only way to use it I know, is to say "open assistant" and then use final verb. But awakening twice every time?
Hey man
I installed automagic and configured a flow that launches google assistant when the google search application runs
The flow has some conditions, so that google assistant doesn't run when I'm manually searching in google
Unfortunately it is not perfect, because it doesn't automatically run google assistant with the screen off, you have to say the command "open assistant" to launch it, but if it works in any other situation
I'm looking for some way to modify the moto voice apk to change google now to google assistant by default, but I don't know enough about programming, so it's still a long way off
If you have any news about it, I would appreciate it if you let me know
