I have a S8 Oreo on Verizon, using Textra (have also had same issue in Android messages and Pulse), gboard every time I use voice to text via gboard it transcribes what I say and when it stops it says "Google has stopped". (Open app again Send feedback.) If I send feedback the keyboard and or voice to text won't work but I can send feedback report. In texting I can just click re open app and it will function normally until I finish my next voice to text. Any help appreciated as I would like to get rid of this error. I factory reset and still get this issue. Have had phone about a year no issues. TIA
Do what I did. ./adb that MoFo out of your phone and use Samsung's keyboard?

Anyone else having this problem? I switched to Vlingo and it's keyboard and everything works fine. Does the Google voice server go down often or is it something going on in my phone from the update?
I'm specifically trying to use text messaging with speech to text.
Not sure if this issue has come up anywhere, I did do a search but didn't find this particular issue in the details.
As you can see from my sig line I've flashed several different ROMs. I am not sure when the problem started, but I am just now getting to the point where it has become irritating.
If I call my phone from anywhere and allow it to go to voice mail, I can hear the prompt and leave a message. However, I never get the Visual Voice Mail indicator, and perhaps more importantly, if I call my voice mail, it reports there are no messages in my mailbox. This happens whether I call it from my phone, or any other phones. This happens if I leave a message, hang up and call right back.
What's even more strange is that when my GF calls me she gets a specialized message "Hi Tina, Brian can't come do the phone right now...". When my buddy calls me he gets a standard cell phone greeting message, the default Sprint one. And if I go into my voice mail my default greeting is a recorded message saying "Leave a message", but again, when you call it you don't hear that. Weird huh?
Has anyone experienced this, or does anyone have a solution? Not sure what's going on, or where to start.
Thanks.
Sprint VVM app has issues with AOSP ROMs.
Follow this thread for a fix that works on a lot of ROMs

Not sure this is ROM or app related yet. Since there are some definite quirks when different people call me. That's what is really odd. Messages left in vmail by caller aren't even there when I call vmail manually.
I do seem to have a working vvm app. It even updated to a newer version. I can listen to sample messages, go thru settings.
Have you ever used Google voice, and then not disabled it properly?

Hm....I am not sure, maybe I'll try to install and uninstall....
Odd, I cannot get Google Voice to install. It is a free program yet I get an error: Error processing purchase. [DF-BPA-09] . I am able to download and install other apps, I tested with Twitter app.
Ok here's a clue:
I turned off my phone, then called it using my office phone and left a message. I then called it again and pressed * during the greeting which prompted me for my PIN. Upon entering my PIN the system reported that I have 28 new messages. LOL.
If I check my voice mail from my mobile phone however, it says I have no messages.
PROBLEM SOLVED!
Apparantly an installation of YouMail on one of my ROM installs started forwarding messages with that service. I reinstalled that application and it found all of my messages. I then used the following codes to deauthorize YouMailL *38 Call and *720 Call. I don't know which one worked, but these deauthorize YouMail and return you back to Sprint Voice mail. I tested by calling my phone and sending to voice mail and it did in fact send the message to Sprint VVM.
Hope that helps anyone that stumbles across this message.
I purchased the N4 today from T-Mobile and upon restoring my apps I noticed that there were at least 6-7 updates for different Google apps, Google Voice being one of them. I was happy to see that considering that folks who already had the N4 reported it being broken on 4.2 and I don't pay for a text messaging plan with GV. I ported my number to GV a few years ago and while I love the flexibility there have always been some bugs depending on the device and build and a lack of updates that make it less than perfect.
After setting it up which happened without any errors or crashes I was pleasantly surprised upon my first incoming text message and clicking the notification to find that I could see an android emoji which the native voice app doesn't support. Also the threaded conversation looked different and then I realized.... texts were coming through the default messaging app as opposed to GV. Fired off some new messages and some replies and sure enough recipients were seeing my GV # as opposed to my sim #! Opened GV and found the each new outgoing and incoming message there as well.
Can any other GV users confirm this?
I use GV for texts as well. This would be a great concern if it send through the standard SMS app/Cell number. Once i receive my gnex i will be testing this
If you look at the notes for the GV app in the Play Store, it mentions this.

I'm in the US and under what's new it list:
Bugfixes.
Now integrated with Android 4.0 visual voicemail.
Direct access to folders from the inbox in Android 4.0
It doesn't make any mention of what I'm describing about the default messaging app. If you're using GV to avoid paying for a text message plan and are incurring charges because of this new change you'd want to know. In the US we get charged for incoming and outgoing.
this must only be on the n4 cause the gnex it is still coming thru the google voice app
You might want to check if your google Voice's setting is setup correctly/changed. If "Receive text messages on this phone" is not uncheck, you will get text in defult text app ON TOP of get on in GV app also. Just a guess, N4 not here yet.

Nailed it! I got a new number and did the set-up from the app instead of the Voice Portal. Thanks for the heads up that was it!
Yes i can do that on my gnex but then it uses the random google voice number as the number in the stock messaging app. Is this what you guys are getting or does it finally fully integrate?

Can some more people confirm that this is working? I am trying to decide on whether to port my number to GV or to Tmobile prepaid.
I have one other question as well. Is it syncing with the contacts actual number or does GV still assign your contact a new number through GV?
Thanks
OK, my problem is the voice update is requiring me to send a text through ATT to set up voice. I have texting blocked through ATT.
Any one know a way around this so I can use voice for texting and voicemail again???

Now that some more people have their N4, can anyone else confirm that this is working on their end with Google voice and the N4?
thanks
I'm in the same spot -- getting ready to switch over from Verizon to Nexus 4/Straight Talk and would like to port my number over to Google Voice, but I really dont' want to unless the whole thing can be seemless (Phone and Text). I don't really MMS, so that's not much of a concern.
My thought at this point is to get my Nexus 4 (ordered, just waiting for delivery), install the newest Google Voice, and run some text tests with a friends phone to see if my current Google Voice number (not ported, but shouldn't matter) displays properly using the deafult text program on the Nexus 4. If (and when) all of that happens, I'll be sure to post an update here...
Everything is working as it should. The problem I experienced was because I got a new number and did the setup from the Google voice app instead of the web portal. The app doesn't give you all the configuration options such as not sending text messages to the phones default messaging app. Do your setup from voice.google.com and you'll be fine. Also if you're new to the service you can verify your number with a phone call instead of text message shouldn't be an issue if your plan has no text messaging.

I received my nexus 4 yesterday and google voice started up just fine. completely separate from my regular SMS 'Messaging' app. I haven't tried GV voice mail taking over my regular one yet.

kchino -- Just so I understand, you are able to use the default messaging app to send text messages through your Google Voice number? If so, that's fantastic...I just may current number to Verizon after all!
Yes, you can send text directly through the default messaging app using your gv #. If for instance you have the gv web portal option set that sends your incoming gv # texts to your phone, opposed to just the gv app - it works as traditional carrier texting but with your gv #. This is what confused me in my original post.
Like most who port their cell numbers to gv I don't pay my carrier for text messaging that saves me over $200 a year, I use the gv voicemail as well. The gv app uses data for messaging and you can't send mms. I typically just hide the default messaging app in the launcher because any texting from it will cost me. I'd prefer to use the default app, it definitely is a better ui but again if you use the default app you'll be charged by your carrier.

I would love to be able to use my default messaging app and my google voice # for sms.
Is this what you're using?
Can you explain your setup?
I use regular SMS, Google voice, Wasapp, and some others to send texts. On Galaxy s4, from my call history I could select the number, then select send message and the phone would ask me which app I want to use, then I could pick either stock app or Google voice. But on the S5, when I do the same, it won't let me pick! when I select to send a message it goes directly to stock app. I use Google voice because I sell on craigslist so I always give my "fake" number.
Also from Google voice, if I have a missed called (on google voice app) and I select send a message, it will take me to the stock app to send the message, not Google voice itself. on the S4 I had no trouble, if I had Google voice app and select send message, it sends it thru Google voice, not stock app.
any ideas on how this issue can be solved? May not be as important to you as it is for me tho, but if you know the trick please help me!!!
You probably have the default messaging app set up as the app to use for messages always. Go to settings and application manager and clear defaults

Is your S4 already upgraded to kitkat 4.4.2? It looks like kitkat behaviour related with default messaging app.

That is the first thing I did. I went to setting and try to clear default. When I go to messaging there is only one listed, stock app. and won't let me do anything, can't clear default, can't edit to make google voice/wasapp or anything like that.

My s4 is not running kitkat yet.... It sucks! because now, if I want to send a message from call history, I select the caller/contact and I select send message, since it won't let me pick google voice I have to try to send via stock app, so what I do is, I copy the number from "compose message" window, cancel the message. then I open google voice and paste the number and send the message, too much trouble specially when I use google voice a lot.
On my s4 I just click send message and it give me options to send it via stock app, google voice, wasapp etc.
I want to use Google Voice Commands to send SMS via Hangouts. I CAN use it to make a phone call using Hangouts (it will ask me which program I want to use [Phone, Hangouts, Skype], and if I set the preference as "always", it will "stick".
However, no such choice for SMS. If I use voice command to send an SMS, it gives no choice, and ALWAYS sends via the standard phone Messenger App.
Any way to change this behaviour?
Have you set the default sms app?
Have you tried to disable the messeneger built in app?
These may help you.
Yes, thanks. That DOES cause it to send messages through Hangouts. However, it STILL sends the message from my Cell # rather than my GV #. If I send the message directly (by typing) through Hangouts it works properly. But utilizing Google Voice Actions to send the text will ALWAYS send it from the cells own number no matter what the settings are.

It's always been this way. No fix for it unfortunately.
I have a different issue. Seems that punctuations don't work with voice typing. Like when I say period, rather than full stop it comes as period. Are u guys facing this issue as well? Any work around?
