Thanks! U couldn't install stuff for weeks but everything works now
Here's one solution that worked for me:
I installed Android Market 3.0.27 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1166152
I cleared the market cash and Google services framework data as per the steps described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=893538
Then the trick that did it was to disable app2SD under settings/applications.
I still am missing some apps in the market (Skype, Facebook, Google Maps, etc.) but at least I can install them from apk files now.
I hope this helps.
Cheers
I have searched hard but I am unable to find an option of Text To Speech in a custom ROM.
I have tried three ROMs, but none of them is having TTS. The custom ROMs don't support this feature.

I have them installed. When I open assistant, it requires me to enable TTS from the settings. When I click on it, it force closes.
Also there is no TTS setting available in the Settings menu.

have you checked your accessibility settings?
a system app called TTS Service.apk is needed, maybe you deleted or removed it

I haven't removed any of such .apk. Well I'll try to google it and install it via system app installer to see if it sorts out my problem.
And all options are ticked in accessibility settings.
I have checked, it is present in my phone. But it doesn't function. Also there is no option of TTS in settings menu.

TTS is in accessiblity settings of your phone
Not there, in the accessibility option. Only installed apk is present. It is in the system.
I have Googled a lot before posting here. Hope it gets solved here.

I have it already and a dozen other similar apps.
The problem is they all require me to go to the TTS settings to change the default output method. When I do this, the settings force close. I have tried everything. Installed other apps, pushed TTS Service.apk again into the system from another ROM. None Worked!

Please help someone. I rooted and installed titanium backup and superuser and busy box successfully on my AT&T galaxy s4. Had no problems whatsoever with that process. Went buttery smooth..
However, when I go into my GALLERY or a lot of other options, I automatically have this error pop up which freezes my phone for anywhere from 5 seconds to 30, sometimes having to reboot entirely and it keeps happening no matter what I do. The error says "Unfortunately Samsung Text to Speech Engine has stopped" all I can do is click OK but it keeps happening. I read a post from 2010 with the Galaxy S I believe it was stating there was a similar issue and it involved KIES software but those instructions didn't help me.
Has anyone else had this issue? If so, how can I correct it? Thank you
Sorry, disregard my post below. I found out how to fix it. I feel like an idiot. Please delete or lock this thread

Do this...
Go into Settings then go into My device then go to Language and input then go to Test-to-speech options and select Google Text-to-speech engine and then remove Samsungs TTS on Titanium Backup and it shouldn't do it as it don't do it on mine no more...
Hope that helps...

If this happens it's probably because you removed ChatON.

EDIT: I actually went into settings-language-text to speech, and chose Google instead of Samsung, and it worked. I also disabled ChatOn and it still works. Hopefully this helps.
OLD REPLY:
They're right. I deleted chaton also butour had a backup I restored. You probably need to put the chaton apk back into the system/app folder, and give it rw-r-r permissions, then reboot and you should be good. I'd use X-plore app to do this
solved it by going to the tts settings and downloading a language to tts
Solved for me as well thx to your advice guys!! Thank you all!!
Another option
I did the exact same thing. Deleted some bloat ware (including chat on) and S Voice stopped working correctly. Kept getting "unfortunately text to speech engine stopped" error. Even though I had a back up on TB I it didn't fix the error message. I tried changing from samsung to google text to speech but then my S Voice didn't work. Finally I just unrooted it (youtube How to Unroot & Unbrick galaxy s4). Very simple and straight forward. It took it back to factory firmware, then I just rooted it again. And now I'm obviously not going to delete chat on. Just thought I'd share for anyone who uses S Voice a lot.
S Voice has stopped Working>> HELP
After rooting my phone with CF Auto root, i then removed some of samsung bloatware that was when i found out that my s voice and s translator are not working. when i click on the application it says unfortunately samsung text to speech has stopped working and later freezes the phone for a while then disappears. I have done alot of research on this issue, some people said its chaton i deleted...but i later installed chaton and i still experience the same thing. I even installed samsung text to speech through root explorer then i click on the s voice it just stop working and says s voice has stopped working and disappear. Please Guys i really need help on this cos i use S voice alot..Any idea would be appreciated..

Just load up your firmware file again and it will restore everything back to normal.
How do I do that? Pls be kind to explain

What fixed it for me was a combination of suggested solutions.
- install ChatOn and ChatOn Video and Voice Calling from the Play store
- change Language and Input TTS options to Google
a. Freeze Samsung text to speech with Titanium - this will make all apps use Google TTS instead
or
b. Convert Samsung text to speech to a user app in Titanium - now you can select it again and download HD voice packs to actually use the samsung TTS which sounds really good with the new packs.
- (optionally) uninstall ChatOn and ChatOn Video
Follow this thread in case you want to remove Bloatware the right way.

The question on GALLERY locking up was exactly what I was experiencing, and thanks to the posts here, I was able to solve it. Please keep that advice, no matter how simple it might seem to you wiZards.

will you please please help put chaton step by step im new to this and im affraid i will damage my phone. please help
What actually fix my phone was flashing the latest firmware via pc odin. Because I download chaton it didn't work, I did everything mentioned and nothing worked for me. So I freeze samsung tts through titanium backup and kept using Google tts. That will solve it but I prefer samsung tts cos the voice is clear so I flashed my firmware and got all my apps back working.

Another path
Thanks for the posts, it definitely is ChatOn causing the issue. I was able to restore Samsung TTS doing the following
1. Restore ChatOn - requires a reboot
2. Restore Samsung TTS
got it back and avoided unrooting, or attempting reloading firmware.
Hope this helps!
When launching S-Voice I get the message "It seems that another application is using the microphone. Please close it and try again"(translation from Spanish).
This started after installing Samsung HD TTS(UK English and Spanish) but uninstalling and clearing data did not solve. Also tried stopping all services related to speech and wiping system and Dalvik cache.
My device is a GT-I9500 running MJ5 Android Jellybean 4.3.
Any clues? Thanks in advance.
More info
Addendum: Tried other apps which make use of mic(Google Now, video recorder, Skype). They all work fine, looks like the issue is related to S-Voice only; in such case maybe removing S-Voice, data/cache and related services and reinstalling could help.
Does anyone know how to do that on 4.3 MJ5 JB?
Thanks in advance.

I am having the exact same problem on my Note 3. I guess there is no solution for it seeing that there are no replies at all here in this forum.

For some reason the home screen on my google now for the latest omnirom build isn't enable. It doesn't have the "Okay Google Now" inside the google search bar. Is it something to do with the gapps I downloaded?
It has to do with the installed language, I think. The workaround is to uninstall and then reinstall your Google Search, or move it from system app to user app, and back. I had success with the first option. Then I had to uninstall and reinstall GEL to get it to recognise the new Search and not hang at the end of the boot.

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling google search and lost my desktop it reverted back to stock. How would I go about moving the app from/system to /usr and back? Where is the.apk located?
Thanks

You mean the your homescreen setup? Yeah. sorry I forgot to tell you that would happen. The important question is, did it fix hotword? Also, sometimes the text disappears but the mic is filled in as still functions. Be on the watch for that behavior as well.
As for system/user app converting, I have always used Titanium Backup for that.

Go to settings accessibility and disable services one by one to see which one is causing Google Now to fail listening.
Fixed

Thank you Tsukasa Buddha-- I used the second option with Titanium Backup to convert it from a system app to a user app and then back and it is now working properly on my sgh-i337m Galaxy S4. You're the best!
