I am having trouble using S Voice on 3g. Google Now works better it seems. How can I get Google Now to be my default when activating voice dialing?

Use Home2 Shortcut. I can't pay the link but it's on the play store.
Step 1 Choose Voice Search.
Step 2 Choose very very short.
Step 3 Choose your launcher. (Touchwiz, Nova, etc)
Step 4 Do step 4.

Home 2 Shortcut worked for bypassing S Voice except for when I try to activate voice dialing from my Bluetooth earpiece. I had to freeze S Voice to get that to default to Google voice dialing.

Glad to help. I did finally edit step 3 to the correct action so that might help. Sorry about taking so long. I tried to edit earlier but there is a delay for editing new posts and then I went camping.

Vlingo is the default voice command now is there a way to get rid of it
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Use titanium back up to freeze or remove it. Im not a big fan of it and removed it. Using stock voice control now with no issues.
I like vlingo with the exception of me not being able to use it when my device is connected to my Mazda's bluetooth.
It just sucks cause prior to the update I didn't have to use it

Why not go to "Voice Input & Output settings" and change it to Google ?
When I say "Hi Galaxy" with the screen off, S-Voice opens, but does not listen until I say the phrase a second time. Has anyone else encountered this? I am rooted, with Xposed installed.
Edit:
I'd really like to get to the bottom of this issue, if someone with some experience could give me some feedback. I believe I first attempted to use S-Voice after rooting with root de la vega. It has never opened in listening mode (launched from app drawer or with the screen off feature), even after upgrading to MJ7 (kept root with survival mode in SuperSU), or flashing Beans Rom in SafeStrap. This has led me to believe this is a hardware or kernel issue, but I'm not the most knowledgeable person about these things. Therefore, any feedback would be much appreciated! TIA
Thank you for your feedback

Update: From what I've seen, when I open S-Voice from the app drawer, it should open in listening mode. Anyone have an idea why mine does not?

Update 2: I now use Tasker to close S-Voice when it opens, and start Google Voice Search! Doesn't listen as quickly as the Moto X, takes about 3 seconds, but no complaints here!

I am also having the issue. When I say "Hi Galaxy" or when I just open S Voice it does not open in listen mode. Any ideas?
Same issue here, no luck with clearing data or cash for the app. I'd be fine with the Tasker to Google Search deal but I was having fun with the turning on/off bluetooth and wifi using voice and a few other features S-Voice has, despite being not as reliable. I just went ahead and installed utter to be able to get the functionality of both, but I can't say my battery life is all that great with so many different things going on at once now.

You might not want to close S-voice, but rather just open Google now on top of it. If you close it, I don't think the screen-off "Hi galaxy" command will work next time around.
I have the same issue... Then I realized something. I have Pebble app for my SmartWatch. I disabled the accessibility service for pebble and it works now. So is it pebble or s voice?

Can you share that tasker profile please. I can't use that damn app to save my life. I started using automateit pro because it dumbs it down but that app won't open voice search only the regular Google app.

Create a profile, select application, select S-voice, delect new task, new task, name it .. In the task edit screen, create action, app, load app, and select Voice Search, and don't make any changes in the action edit screen.. make sure it's active on the profile tab, and try it out.. xda has a great tasker tutorial on youtube! Check it out!

I was worried about that when I created that task.. Tasker could not seem to close S-voice so it didn't effect me. When I realized it wasn't closing, I removed that action. I am interested in how the note 3s always listening feature differs from Motos 8x technology. And if Utter! has the potential of being this energy efficient?

Bump - OP updated
Is anyone using this combo yet?
I have it installed, however, I am quite annoyed. When I hit the home button back to the home screen of the Kit Kat Launcher, the keyboard pops up. It's basically seeing google now "listening" on the homescreen and thinking that I want to type in it right away.
It would be the same function as if I hit a search button, the keyboard pops right away.
any help would be awesomeeeeeee!

Initially, Google Search kept crashing, even after trying the languages trick. Using the lib file recommended by @docnok63 worked perfectly. Saying, "Ok Google" from the any of your Homescreens or Google Now activates voice search. All search queries performed were successful and crash free.
(Rename the original to libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so.bak before copying.)
libgoogle_recognizer_jni_l.so (Tested, confirmed working! )

Anyone successfully get the 4.4 GoogleTTS working from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2506623
It installed fine, but force closes on me when I select it.
The .zip file method never worked for me, so I was hoping that this .apk method might have better luck

Noticed I can launch 'Voice Recorder' with gNow voice, but it's hidden from all launchers/app history (Verizon)
Anyone else find another app that works this way?

Won't know what apps to look for that might be "hidden"... Voice Recorder though, is it only hidden on Verizon versions? Because on my device(International version) Voice Recorder is kept in the "Tools" folder that is in the app drawer along with other "Tool" Like Weather, Downloads, Setup, Parent Dashboard, HTC Apps and HTC Backup.
That was how it came out of the box, I didn't move any apps around.
But...Why would Verizon hide the Voice Recorder app? Are they the only ones allowed to record conversations or what's going on here?
Pretty nuts huh? Here's my tools folder...

Jw if anyone else has stumbled upon an app you have to 'ask for'
Sent from my HTC6525LVW using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Yeah that screenshot is very different to how my app drawer looks
Scribble, clock, the car app etc...
Either way, different strokes for different folks they say... Regardless of that, I don't get why Verizon would want to hide the voice recorder app. Is it the only app that's hidden or have you come across more?
---------- Post added at 05:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:50 PM ----------
Did you check the hide/unhide apps?
In the app drawer, at the top press the 3 dots and then go to hide/unhide apps, is it checked there? That is if you tried looking there before.
Else maybe see what the guys in Verizon forum says http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one-m8
So for some reason all of a sudden I can't get the "OK google" voice command to work. I'm running stock KitKat and I've tried it in both the LG ui and Nova Launcher. Has anyone else had this trouble? Any ideas on how to fix would be great, thanks in advance.

Did you enable it inside Google now settings, so that it allows you to use it from any screen?
I tried to set it up to work from any homescreen but it won't respond when I try to go through the voice recognition steps.

When I try to train it, it doesn't react when I say the OK google command 3x. Conversely, I tried it on a galaxy s4 I have and I could train it just fine and make the command work from any home screen.
