Hello everyone,
I downloaded and installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1272440 (Android 2.3.5 Sense 3.0 NAND) this rom on my HD2 but I can not using voice search. I searched a lot but nothing find. When I go market voice search for download it says your device doesn't supporting this object, I found apk file somewhere and installed it but it runs so slow and doesn't recognise my voice.
If I speak slowly it returns something "you wanted to say .... " but when I speak normally it says "I didn't hear your voice"
I tried clearing voice search app cache and disable personalised voice search and remove my voice records on my google account but it is still not working .
Thanks for help.
Urm, not sure, maybe it's the 3.0 build that doesn't work well with Voice.
Or maybe your mic sensitivity is too low (yes some builds have that)
But seriously I don't know much about 3.0 bro.. perhaps you should move on to another ROM if it's really bugging you
thanks for reply. But sometimes I need it. I guess I am going to change my rom

Download the "google search by voice app" in the market,then watch the video link in my first post to activate
The new update doesn't have Street View. Are they discontinuing the project?
it has streetview im using it now!!
You are right, but it is not an option in the map modes like it was before. You have to long press the map on the location, then a window pops up and there you select street view. Don't really care about that since I am in Canada and there are no street views here yet, at least that is what I think. As for the voice recognition/search function, I do not have that option in the search function. Looked all over the place for it but still can't find it. There is suppose to be a mic beside the google search bar in the Search option. Not there on Rogers Canada network. Hopefully they will fix that soon.

can't find this app, when i search for it, only one app appears and it is google maps which is already installed...
still no voice search for me.
strange.
The Roger HTC Magic (I have one) doesn't appear to have libspeech.so installed - I think that is the missing piece. I am not sure why we don't see the google search by voice app that the others are speaking about.
I'm confused why the voice dialer works - I guess that doesn't use libspeech.so?

When you are in Google Maps, do Menu > Search then select the microphone, which will let you do voice search.

It's close to the same hardware - different frequencies or something for the different carriers. The other difference is each carrier can customize the Android OS they release. Rogers in Canada, for example, released their Android phones with MS Exchange support. But they obviously left some other things out. That's why I want to root my phone so I can put whatever software I want on there.

That's the issue - there's no such button. Missing libspeech.so is the culprit here I believe. And while I have the file from other sources, I don't have root access to the phone, so I can't install it to the lib folder to make it work.
What a pain.. when I try to update mine, I get the message:
"Installation Error: Package file was not signed correctly."
Any suggestions?
I installed the new version of maps but I can't find the voice search option, it's just not there (same as previously reported) i'm on vodafone australia.
Any idea how we can get the voice working?
Well I upgraded the Maps app and have the voice search. It's rubbish! I've tried speeking as clearly as possible but it's all over the place. Searching Edinburgh comes back as Dayton, Ohio, USA everytime Typing is much quicker anyway.
New update of Google Map has been released, v3.1.1
I've updated and retried, it's still rubbish.
Ya not sure what v3.1.1 fixes, there is still no voice search here in Canada yet.

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.

Thanks,
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??
RUU to 2.2
Google Navigation.
Phone starts talking loudly, slowly, in drawn out very low pitch male voice.
It starts saying what sound like technical things, and then says some URL's?! Even saying " h t t p " and stuff.
I haven't attempted travelling with it, and the voice keeps repeating its codes after a bit.
It's so strange it feels like some ridiculous virus or malware.
Maybe the 2.2 RUU we got is malicious?
Help I'm scared!

Hahahaha! Sounds like fun.. How do you activate voice navigation?
by hitting the built in navigation app...?
it's always been a voice enabled navigation app, hasn't it?
It's not fun. It's telling me URL strings and being scary!
this is one of the URLs it says

WTF?!
Sent by me to you, to fill up more than 10 characters.
Have you installed any text-to-speech libraries, and checking the option to always use those settings in your Settings for every text-to-speech thingy?
Isn't the default an American lady? Talks normally, not weird ****...
I installed the recommended one for Google Translate - eSpeak TTS.
But I even tried changing it back to pico and it didnt make a difference.
Actually right now, using the Listen to an example thing, enabling the checkbox for eSpeak TTS does make it sound like the guy I'm describing.
unchecking it sounds like a more normal female voice.
However, none of that would explain WHAT the guy is saying or why
Have you Clear Google Maps data & eSpeak TTS data?
i recently put CM7_HoneyComB_V57 on my HD2. its my first real go with android and so far its proving to be great. the only thing i have found is i cant get voice to work with the text messaging. i downloaded google search and voice works fine with that and it works fine with vlingo too from the market, it just will not work with normal text app, the microphone pops up but has a line through it showing it is now working. is there any way to enable it or get it working please?
just so others might find it helpful in future... i solved this problem by installing Winphone7 Ginger Keyboard and now it seems to be working fine.
Odd problem.. I installed a stripped down rom, and now i have no Google voice to text. I installed Google keyboard, and Google search, however no Google typing option in the input settings. Is there an apk i can install to fix this?
after spending all day looking for the solution, I would find the answer 10 minutes after posting about it lol
seems I was missing plain old Google on my phone, found it in the App Store download it and it works like a charm now.
