[Q] Set 'Google Now' as Bluetooth headset button action. - Verizon Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When I press my bluetooth headset button this app opens ask me to say 'call' and a name. It is the worst app!!! Never gets even close to the correct name!! [emoji35]
Google Now gets it right 90% of of the time.
So how do I set Google now as the default app that opens when I press the button on my bluetooth headset?

Bump

Anyone here?

go ask your question on http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s5/
lots more activity there.
You can change the default BT app, can't remember where I did it right now.
But, I never, ever use that feature and it has not once, in a thousand years interpreted my west Texas/Okie/New Mexico dialect correctly.

If you don't use voice dial at all you can remove the voice dial app with sdx app removal tool but you will have to root to use it. If you search for one click root and unroot it should pop up. I can get you links this evening if you need them.
Do you BONSAI?
As a matter of fact there is a video on rooting with 2.5.5 in the stickies at the beginning of General Thread.
Do you BONSAI?
I'm rooted and on a custom rom thats not the issue I just didnt know how to get it turned off. I have played with the sdx remover will give it a shot Thanks
Well that didnt work. with voice dial removed now when I'm in the music player and hit the button my phone freaks out it doesnt FC but it hangs up eventually goes to the lock screen I can wake it up but the screen does not respond. Also tried holding power before it locked and got reboot etc screen but the touch screen does not work. oh well maybe I wont be getting this function lol

Sorry. Did you restore voice dial with sdx? You could go back to Eclair where there was no bluetooth voice dial
We need better bluetooth controls. I used Top Voice Control and picked that to open when I hit the Bluetooth button and it screwed up so wanted the basic voice dilaer back and had to delete Top Voice to do that.

Bluetooth headset: How to open Google Now rather than Voice Dialer (It's terrible)?

My Jabra headset activates VD rather than Google Now's more advanced search when held down. How can I change this default?
Thanks!
You are using cm 10.1 I'm guessing since that comes with voicedialer by default. Go into settings then apps and find voice dial under ALL and just disable it. It should default to Google now then. Either that or do what I do and delete it from the zip before I flash

Interesting: I now get a different, newer voice dialer, but still a VD. Iit got a long googlebar across the top and reads "Voice Search" in the center of a full screen with the directive: Say Call and say someone's name. Which app is this launching from?
I found an app that almost works on a non-rooted phone called Bluetooth Launch. The program has not been updated in quite some time. It is a simple program with two parts, one screen to select the activity to be assigned and a second screen to pick which button to assign, for example one long press. When I run the app I am not able to bring up the menu to select which button to assign the activity to. I am able to reassign the default button to the app and I have it calling Google Search...voicesearchactivity. It will for the most part bring up Google Now. However, sometimes it fails to do anything and sometimes it brings up GN but with the mic turned off. At the moment the headset is used to stream and answer calls. The voice dialer is painfully slow, so gets little use. Google Now and a BT headset would be a good fit, odd that there is no support.

Works well, but you have to know to go into app settings, and disable the default activity for Google Search. Otherwise Bluetooth Launch never gets a chance.
Just wrote a simple app to do this. I describe it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/bt-activate-google-voice-dialer-t3012622

[Q] How to launch Voice Search using headset while screen locked?

Jelly Bean introduced headset controls which allowed Play/Pause and Next for single and double presses respectively on headsets. I can confirm both these work just fine.
However, the long-press option to launch Voice Search only works while screen is unlocked. When screen is locked, long-press has no effect (it does not even register as a single press)
I tried the following:
1. Disabling Pattern lock (which I mostly use)
2. Turning on screen (but still locked) and then long pressing.
3. Keeping Google Search on in the background and then locking screen.
No luck.
Cannot seem to get any useful info regarding this on the Internet.
There is no point in the voice search shortcut on headsets if the phone has to be dug out from my pocket and unlocked. There has to be a way to bypass that.
Can somebody help??
EDIT: I am also unsure if this is an Android-specific problem or a ROM specific problem, so it would be kind of you if you could test it yourself. You can see my ROM details in the signature. I use Samsung headset in combination with my Nexus 4.
UPDATE: I tried turning off the "Power button immediately locks phone" option and set "Automatically lock phone after sleep" time to 30 minutes. Still the long press doesn't work. It works only after screen is turned on again. Whaaaaa...?!
ANOTHER UPDATE: This issue is present on Google Code but it has been closed without further comments. Please star this issue so that it is noticed by the development team.
Been really frustrated about this as well. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm running Jellybeer 4.0 on SGH i717m
Astounding. I even have to use a third party app to dial by voice reliably. What good is Google's extensive voice technology if you can't use it?
I'm equally as confused. One advantage of owning an iPhone is that you've got an excellent bike companion that could read and reply to texts, make calls, check the time, etc all while keeping my eyes on the road and hands on my handlebars. I always figured my Nexus S didn't do that because I was running a different ROM - but 4.2 on a brand new Nexus.....come on.

the closest thing that i know of is using touch control to swipe to unlock (like pressing the power button) the using NAV RING to swipe the nav ring to google search, or what ever app you like. not sure if this is what you want but it may get you closer.

Please check this link
My solution:
1. Download Bluetooth Launch from Play Store
2. Launch, scroll to Google Search and expand it
3. Enable option “com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity”
4. close
5. launch Google Now go to Settings -> Voice and enable Bluetooth Headset option
6. connect not working Bluetooth or wired headset and long press button. Dialog should appear and select Bluetooth Launcher always!
7. test if this is the complete solution for you. If it doesnt work properly when screen is locked try following:
- Install Xposed Framework
- go to Downloads and Install "AppSettings"
- open AppSettings and go to Google Search
- Turn On Settings and check "Show when locked"
- save
- restart Phone
If you are having issues with your selected language in Google Now. Also use AppSettings and change Location for Google Search to desired one. Now you should be able to use Google Now in your preferred language.

Bluetooth start Google now instead of S-Voice?

When I use my bluetooth (Jabra) device to make a call, it brings up S-Voice. How can I change it to bring up Google voice?
Thanks
Double click home button and select Google. If it doesn't prompt you to choose clear defaults in s voice under applications. Just a thought I don't have that blue tooth but I use Sena smh10 and that worked for me.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 with Android 4.3 (Samsung official ROM).
My solution was this:
- Disable "S Voice" under the Application settings
- install "Home2 Shortcut" from the GoogleStore and set it up so that you can double-tap the home button to launch Google Now Voice Search. I guess if you only want the bluetooth device to search, you could skip this app installation
- install "Bluetooth Launch" and select >Google Search > com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity
Connect your Bluetooth device and perform the action for your voice command (for mine its a long button press on the bluetooth headset). Set "Bluetooth Launch" as your default. Now it should open Google Now for you, with your device immediately listening for your input.
Credit for this solution goes to Benjamin Rosas, an Android user who posted this solution under the review of the Bluetooth Launch app in the Google Play Store.
Worked for me, hope it works for you too!

I achieved the same functionality without extra apps.
1. Application manager > scroll over to 'All' > S-Voice
2. Force stop, Turn Off, clear data, clear cache
3. Application manager > scroll over to 'Turned Off' > S-Voice
4. Turn On
5. Open S-Voice app and hit 'Confirm' 'Agree' 'Skip' to skip the intro tutorial, then turn on 'Double Tap Home Launch' in settings if it isn't already on. (But I think it's on by default)
6. Close S-Voice and go to homescreen
7. Double-tap home button
8. A menu to "Complete action using:" pops up, pick Google instead of S-Voice, and 'Always'.

Worked perfectly. Definitely prefer this approach over using an unnecessary app.

Galaxy S4 issues with Bluetooth
I'm new and found your forum. You all seem like you know what you are doing and I thought I'd run this random question by you. I've disabled S-Voice on my Galaxy S3 because I don't use it. I own a Smith helmet with Skullcandy Bluetooth Kit and a cheaper wire line Skull Candy kit. Any accidental long press activates S-Voice while I'm listening to music. It always interrupts a song and then I have to take off my gloves, pull my phone out of my jacket and exit S-Voice. It happens numerous times a day every day. It happens if my collar of my jacket bumps my Skull Candy device or because I'm wearing gloves and don't have much dexterity to know if I'm pressing it. Any idea on how to disable a long press or am I just stuck with this?
Thanks!

[APP] Mod to replace S-Voice with Google Voice Search (no root necessary!)

Would it be possible? Including the voice wake functionality "Okay, Google Now" instead of "Hi Galaxy"?
How many would be interested in something like this?
Should not be too hard to do, what do you think?
Probably will need root to achieve it
----
SOLVED: using a very simple tasker profile/action (see here)
UPDATE: Install this tiny free app from the Play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hu.viczian.deathtosvoice (created using Tasker App Factory)

Yeah I got this too. It happened after I installed SoundHound.
Now I have the options of
Google
S Voice
SoundHound
Interesting but without the option to activate gvoice with screen off its not a huge benefit. I tested open mic+ but it lacks admin rights to bypass the lockscreen etc.

You mean root permissions?
Sorry, I was wrong. I thought S-Voice is able to bypass a pin lockscreen but it isn't. It is only admin (not root) to allow the screen off command.
The problem of open mic+ is, that it is buggy. It seems to freeze after a short time. Sometimes Google Now freezes as well so I think it is because of Open Mic+ but I didn't tested it enough to verify it. S-Voice seems to be more stable, but is not present if you are in other apps like Maps.
But both systems are too weak in rights. e.g. I'm not able to stop apps (ok root would be needed), not able to say my lockscreen pin, stop a phone call, etc.
Tasker
I just had an idea: it should be possible to create a very simple tasker action, which would be triggered by opening s-voice. It would exit s-voice and switch immediatelly to Google Voice Search. This should work even without rooting.
If this would work, all the convenient ways to start S-Voice would become actually useful to start Google Voice search, including voice-wake, home-double-click, headset-long-press.
I will try this as soon as I get my N3
How do you want to exit S-Voice without root
There's the point! Okay, without root we can just switch away (would mic input focus stay? that would be a problem), with root it should be possible to kick s-voice too.
If one app opens the mic the other will display an error.

I am happy to report, that the solution I came up with before I had access to the Note 3 works without a hitch.
1. Enable wake-up hotword detection in S-Voice (keep double click Home if you like that too)
2. Create "S Voice" app-triggered tasker profile
3. The activated task should load "Voice Search"
4. Optional step: after starting voice search, my task also kills S-Voice to save memory
(and killing s-voice every time makes you me good)
There is no concurrency problem with the mic (as we were anticipating)
Say "Hi galaxy" while having the screen turned off
(I actually like to "say Die galaxy")
phone wakes up,
home screen unlocks,
s-voice flashes on screen for half a sec (beeps too)
then google voice search appears immediately
it too beeps and listens for the search term or command
Next project: it would be nice to be able to change the "hi galaxy" wake up command
The changeable wake up command is part of the Galaxy S4 S-Voice so I think it will be part in the Note 3 in one of the next updates (hopefully).
Of course I tested your idea, too. But it seems that it works better with Llama than with Tasker as Google Voice starts immediately. As I'm not rooted its not as perfect as yours (I need to tap backwards fast to bypass restarting Google Voice), but the goal is reached
Look:
http://www.maxrev.de/google-sprachsuche-statt-s-voice-mp4-v377253.htm
Update:
Ok I found a better solution. Know I'm using three rules instead of one and this is how it works:
Final Demo Video
The first rule starts Google Voice, but checks if the variable "googleSearch" is not 1 (this is important as it fails, too if the variable does not exist after rebooting the device). The second rules sets the var to "1" if Google Voice is open. The last rule resets the var to "0" with a delay of 3 seconds after Google Voice has been closed. So I'm having 3 seconds to close S Voice before Google Voice would start again.
If you don't want to here the "ping" sound of S Voice after closing Google Voice it would be possible to mute the device for 3 seconds as well, but I don't think this is really important

thats excellent Mgutt
the note does the transition across to google now/voice commands very quickly.. you have put the note back on the table as an option for my next phone.. im just holding out to see if the LG G2 will use the S800 for always on listening when it gets kitkat..
Im a bit spooked by AMOLED now that my galaxy S2 is marred by burn in

I'm having one problem left. But I think its because of Llamas limited amount of triggers. The problem is: Google Voice is not able to receive the next command while its open. Instead S Voice waits for the next "Hello Galaxy". To bypass this problem I tried to switch off the display automatically. This works, but only with a fixed delay as I'm not able to trigger "last touch/last talk + 10 seconds" with Llama.
Would this work with Tasker (and without Root)?
The next option would be to activate "Open Mic+" as long Google Voice is open. But I did not tested if this would work.

Well we can set the display timeout to 15sec, then restore the default (it's 30 sec for me because of smart stay) when google voice search disappears.
Because of the 30 sec display timeout it hasn't been much of a problem for me, but I was also wondering how to get it to prompt for a next question.
Curious: why doesn't the "ok, google" hotword work in google now? I've just tested the google experience launcher and hot word detection doesn't work in there either.

I'm using this setup (after 20 seconds display is turned off) and this is not good if you press the microphone button. Then the display switches off, too. So we need an additional "on touch" condition to avoid that.

Okay, then set the display timeout to 15sec, wait 15sec then set it back to whatever it used to be. Then if the screen was touched (and the display timeout extended) then it will stay on...
I hope to be able to test these with tasker in the afternoon
