[Q] HD2 Voice Search Problem

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

Note 3 voice action issue

I recently purchased a galaxy note 3 sm-900. I was desperate to return my android experience back to the one that I had become accustomed to on previous phones, so among other things I set about the task of removing google's new voice search and finding a way to install the old one. In short, I rooted the phone and deleted system apps using RootAppDelete. I uninstalled the google search app itself and then one that said something along the lines of com.google.android.voicesearch. After that, the google play store finally allowed me to download a fresh copy of the old voice search app, which installed just fine and works almost like it should on my phone. The only problem I have is that the app does not recognize voice commands, which is primarily what I use the app for. If I say "Navigate to X", the phone will open the browser with a google search for "Navigate to X". I really need to find a way to make these voice commands work. I have been digging through internet threads for the last few hours trying to find someone with a similar problem but with little success.
Does anyone have any ideas how I can fix this?

Get Galaxy Gear working with the HTC M8

Hey Guys,
After some frustration, I can confirm that this method works for connecting the original Galaxy Gear with the HTC One (M8) no problem since it's running Bluetooth 4.0 LE, obviously with the Samsung apps limitations.
1. Download Gear Manager 1.6.111801 (com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.6.111801.apk) (if you are on a page with a whole list of apks, don't lose it!)
2. Change extension from .apk to .zip
3. Transfer to your phone
(3.33 Make sure you have a file manager on your phone. I like Astro if you don't have one already)
(3.67 Make sure you have allowed installing from)
4. Open com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.6.111801.zip
5. Navigate to assets>preInstallApks and install all the APK (there's something like 16 of them)
6. Navigate back to the original folder and rename com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.6.111801.zip to com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.6.111801.apk
7. Install com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.6.111801.apk
8. Download Gear Manager 1.7.031004 and put it on the phone (com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.7.031004.apk)
9. Run com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager_1.7.031004.apk
10. If your watch is brand new, you're going to have to update it to the newest software: google it.
11. At this point if your watch is on, your phone should start searching for it, and maybe find it. I rebooted my phone once while it was trying to connect and when I opened up Gear Manager, it requested a sync and boom, synced.
Hopefully this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.
Weather doesn't work as well as s-voice, obviously, nor does the media controller, but the dialer, find my phone, contacts, camera and photo transfer I can confirm are working.
Edit: after a couple of different ideas, I still can't get notifications working on the stock software. If anyone set up a rommed watch, let me know if you have notifications.

I've tried ATN Manager v1.2.3 for the notifications and it's been a success (I can't read the actual message but the notification is sent to the gear)
Just make sure you go into settings > security > notification access > make sure ATN Manager is check marked

so i setup my M8 phone just like described in the op, my watch has the latest firmware, i try to sync and it pairs it and then tries to connect but it wont connect. I read some other forums that said you need gear manager stub in /system/app. Is that true? anyone have it? Also when I first launch the software it wants to update a gear manager plugin 1 and something else. Am i suppose to let these update? I am not sure how to get around them. Any help would be great. Thanks guys. Would really love this to work.

Thanks for this timely thread. I just got my M8 and an eager to connect it to my Gear. Can you please tell me how I can get the gear manager apks you mentioned? My S4 had already been sold.

Gear fit works with M8
http://9to5google.com/2014/04/12/how-to-use-samsungs-gear-fit-smartwatch-with-other-android-devices/
We have also learned that an initial update of the Gear Fit may be necessary to get this method working. This Gear Fit must be updated with a compatible Samsung device or the Gear Manager app could have trouble connecting with it during the setup process on an unsupported device.

OP, can I ask you if you were on just a Stock Rooted Rom or which Custom Rom you used while connecting the Gear?

Thanks to this thread I wanted to give it a shot.
I have a Gear 2 Neo and got it working with my M8 in pretty simple way.
Gear Manger .apk the latest from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2593066
Install the .apk and run through the setup. It will install a bunch of apks and ask to reset the Gear 2 Neo, but for me its all working great.
I did go into settings on the Gear 2 and check for the watch to be bluetooth visible. Other than that it was a snap.
I have an Factory Unlocked M8 on Att.

Will this work with the Galaxy Gear?? Not the Gear 2, the 2013 version. Was really hoping to get the notifications etc working on my m8 and gear watch. HELP!!

Hopefully this will work. Might have to give it a go with a demo gear at work before purchasing. Thanks for the great guide, and I'll be back if it does/doesn't work for me

Having trouble getting this to work. Will try again later

Hello, did you manage to change watch faces. i have linked gear with M8, however with watchfaces challenged. please advice.
thanks in advance

Is this topic dead? The Gear Manager in the M8 works as in the Samsung? No bugs at all? I don't want to buy a Samsung just because of Galaxy Gear. Now I have a Sony SmartWatch 2 and it works as a charm with my M8... Why Samsung doesn't make the Gear for everyone?!

Any more news or reports from anyone doing this?

I'm missing a font. You can use a 3rd party app like Ifont as a work around for now.

Hi everyone. I have installed this ROM to my SM-T231 (3G model) and everything works great except one important problem. After i have installed this ROM, Google Play Store started to consider my device as some kind of wifi only tablet and does not allow me to install mobile phone specific apps like WhatsApp. It says that my device is not compatible with this app. The settings section of Google Play Store indicates that i have no carrier. This was not the case before i have installed this ROM.
Anyone have any clue what might be the cause of this problem? What can i do to make Google Play Store to recognize my device`s SIM Card and phone capability again? Should i change device name or ROM build name in "build-prop" with Kernel Auditor? Any idea?
Btw, i can use my tablet`s phone call features without any problem. I can make and receive calls but Google Play Store considers my device as wifi only tablet for some reason
Update:
I just noticed that my carrier company`s Android app cannot detect my phablet`s brand/model name nor any of it`s features like 3G/4G capabilities. Again, this wasn't the case before installing this ROM.
Now I really started to believe that something is wrong with build.prop parameters of this ROM or somehow incompatible for my device

[Q] Android Wear won't send voice replies but everything else works

I've encountered a really strange problem on my watch (Samsung Gear Live) lately. Not a single texting app will let me use the "reply" button with voice.
Example: Friend texts me, text pops up on my watch. I swipe it and click "Reply" and try to reply using my voice. The text will write out on my watch screen, but the red Google mic icon just sits there for about 10 seconds as if its still thinking it's receiving input, and then it takes me to the "disconnected/watch is offline" screen.
But the watch is obviously not disconnected: I can exit that app and tap the screen and say "Okay Google" and then say "Text friend 'hi how's it going'" and the text will send without a problem.
I've encountered this error when using Coffee SMS, WearResponses, and Google Messenger. I've reset the watch, and cleared Android Wear data, and the problem still persists. This makes no sense. Any ideas/suggestions?

I have the same problem on my LG G Watch R.
I received the Watch today, the reply function worked once or twice, but now it does the same as yours

My Gear Live is still under warranty so I've sent it in to Samsung. We'll see if they are able to fix it...

Update: So, Samsung just replaced the entire watch for me. I'm setting it up now to see if the problem is fixed. Has anyone with the same problem tried factory resetting their *phone*?
UPDATE 2: Well, crap. It still doesn't work. I'm going to try pairing the watch with a different phone sometime in the near future to see if it's my phone. It's obviously not the watch.

Out of curiosity, what version of the Google Search app do you have installed?

Okay, I got it working. Obviously, there's probably some degree of magical Googleness that happened, too, but here's what I did:
Background: I had Google 5 installed from the Android M preview, and I had also previously sideloaded a newer version of Google Play Services (still compatible with my phone, of course)
1. Booted watch into recovery; factory reset several times.
2. Meanwhile, uninstalled updates to Google Play Services, and then download update from the Play Store
3. In the Play Store, uninstall updates for Google App (Google Search), then update from the Play Store
4. Turn on watch, pair with phone, and then pray over it
5. Test out an app (I use Coffee SMS), text yourself, and try replying to it. It might tell you that "Google Play Services must be installed" - I rebooted my phone and then manually connected the watch via the Android Wear app, and then tested it and it worked.
YMMV.

Thanks for keeping us up to date
I too, was finally able to get it corrected, but mine was a bit easier. The only real difference between what you first described and my situation - was that I am using the LG Urbaine Watch with the new LG G4. LIke you (and someone else) it worked a few times and I was thinking that would be my most used feature. Later - it stopped working and my research began. I thought it might have something to do w/ my loading up the LG Call companion app - but after taking that off - it still didn't work. Finally, a good friend of mine that is an Android lover - suggested I switch from the Verizon Message plus application - to the generic one provided by LG. As soon as we made the switch - the Text message response option appeared again. In fact, in addition the reply arrow - I also could see a full list of the conversation with that particular party. Very happy in making that little change.
