Hey all
just got a Google nexus 7 UK and have really enjoyed using it. I have been using Google voice quite a bit but decided to unlock and root it the other day. After reinstalling Swype Google voice no longer responds when I say "Google",I have to push the Mic icon.
I'm not sure wether it was Swype that caused this, the unlock our root,I did search for a solution but found nothing. Google voice is still selected as an input method on keyboards/input as well as Swype.
I have uninstalled Swype reinstalled It. Had voice as my only input ran out of ideas.currently on 4.1.1. Didn't know where to place this thread as I'm not sure where the fault lies
Thanks in advance

To my view i guess there is no way right now to bypass it in our device since that is the main reason CWM won't boot due to this messy feature bootloader is locked...
SM-G7109 bought in China without Google Services
Hi. I'm new here.
I recently bought Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 SM-G7109 in China (China Telecom).
To my surprise, it doesn't have any Google services pre-installed
I went to the shop and the staff somehow installed Gmail on it. So I have all the contacts now
The staff also installed Play Store but it doesn't work. It doesn't crash but it responses as if there's no connection
I also noticed that Calendar won't sync no matter how many times I try to sync manually.
It gives an error message, "unfortunately calendar has stopped".
Gmail seems to be syncing somehow but not so often...
If possible, I want all the Google services work normally.
I searched on the internet but can't find a good solution.
Will the method using the files like "com.android.vending-3.1.3-signed.apk" work for my device?
If you have any advice, I would really appreciate it.
Network Disconnecting Problem
Hi
I brought a Grand 2 last month in the showroom I did not check it with two sims I had put only one sim. Now when I am putting in the second sim the and chose the network mode to WCDMA & GSM auto connect or WCDMA then the internet as well as the network keeps on disconnecting off and on. But in the GSM mode every thing works fine. I went to the service center twice but it did not help. I changed the sim cards as well as the sim slots but nothing worked. Can any one please help me out? I will be very grateful and thankful for it. This has upset me a lot. Once again thanks in advance.

I tried "com.android.vending-3.1.3-signed.apk" but it didn't work, either.
I also noticed Google Map also doesn't work.
It's so frustrating not to have Google services on an Android phone...
Anyone can help me out?

Thank you for your reply. But I think my phone(SM-G7109) can not be rooted yet. Besides, I already have Gmail the shop staff installed for me.
Is there any way Google Store, Google Map, Google Calendar to work normally without root? Thank you.

Your device is supported for Google Play see here https://support.google.com/googleplay/answer/1727131?hl=en
Just search in Google for Google Play apk file and download it and install it... Once google play starts to work everything will start to work..

Thank you for your reply. Yes, I know it should be supported, but since it's sold in China (China Telecom Model), No Google service is pre-installed. And I did try installing Google Play apk file but it didn't work, just as I mentioned before, it continues to show "retry" button as if there's no internet connection.

Hello Bro...
That's Samsung Problem They put so much bloatwares due to which performance will be effected...Clean the RAM and Background application before you start the game...that might solve to certain extant... Sometimes even updates can cause issues with Games Compatibility... See weather internal memory is Low?? if it is then it might cause problems these are some tips.. Most issue can be solved by Rooting since we can remove bloatwares...
I Hope this Helps Bro....
Good Luck....

Brother Ill be happy if you could reply to my old post as well.
thank you!
Hope this is the right spot for this...
I absolutely cannot stand the current google maps nav voice. But, I cannot seem to change it. I have tried everything from changing the tts settings in language and input, to replacing the voice_instructions_imperial.zip file in sdcard>Android>data>com.google.android.apps.maps>testdata>voice>en_USxxxx.
I have also tried several other navigation apps, and frankly, I hated all of them for various reasons.
I am rooted and on 4.4.4 stock rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! My ears will thank you.
Bump...
Does anyone have any ideas at all? Ill try anything. I have a cross country trip coming up next week and would rather not have to listen to that horrible voice the whole way. Thanks!

Any help is greatly appreciated
Can anyone confirm whether they are still getting the quiz game after saying game show? Now it's just a link which comes up. It was fun to play. Thanks.
Bump.
I have friends who have it working. I don't know why it's not showing up anymore. Anybody have any suggestions. I've tried everything I can think of. Wiped data in Google app, installed new ROM. Still no game show.
Still works for me. Try triggering it with "I'm feeling lucky" instead.
