Am I the only one with this issue ? After I press the genius button the app pops up but it takes a while until it starts listening...and with this phone I expect little to no lagg...

I have the same problem.
Mine became much quicker when I deleted its app data. However lag crept back in.
Sent from my HTC Glacier
mine seems to lag, with a message says loading contacts. I feel that should be a background load instead of stopping the app temporarily
I would think it would only load contacts once..but. mine did it a few times in a row and sometimes not at all......
So I wonder what's up with the genius button ?
Why does it lag on such great hArdware ?

I have the same issue. Takes about 15 seconds on mine ven overclocked to 1.3mhz
Turn load contacts to manual just remember to update when you add new contacts

Fine. But the lag is present even before the contact database update begins.
After hitting the genius button I have about a one second delay before it says listening. Which is not really a big deal

Yeah, it happens to all of us. It's annoying, too, because the Genius Button is almost always wrong in understanding voice commands. When using the stock Google Voice Actions, I have a margin of error of like 10%. Using Dragon's engine, I'm accidentally calling phones 75% of the time. :/
I wish they'd just give us the option to toggle between Genius / normal Search.

If you do the Re-Map genius button mod you can.
Just LONG PRESS to use normal voice search.

Hello in pretty new to android in general but I know how to do a bit of tinkering especially on ios and I was wondering if there is a way to change what app opens(could be something really obvious as I Sao in new to android) for example when uses out the game pad I want the playstation pocket app to open.
Cheers tony
So no one knows?
So no one can tell me if it is even possible or not, please just asking for an answer
The XPERIA Play launcher app opens up based on a setting in the app that detects the controller slide out. If the PS Pocket app has that option press the menu button and see if its there. Otherwise theres nothing in the OS that tells it to do this so you're SOL.
Hi,
I've been looking around for a way to re-map the up or down volume control to the FPS games shooting action (be able to shoot with the volume buttons instead of the virtual buttons)
is there any way to accomplish this?
Strange i was thinking about this yesterday. Would making fps games much better.

Well all the key mapping is on system/usr/keylayout you can open the files as a txt and try to change them although not sure if it's possible.
If the game is made to only react to onscreen touch events, no go as no buttons at all are queried so remapping won't do a thing there.
So I'm going to try this,
connecto a usb controller and see if the game reacts to the controller
using the app keynumberTrack I'll catchthe controller key code
then go to the configuration files and try to do something
hope to get good results, I'll post the outcome later
thanks folks!
Why don't you just use a controller via Bluetooth or OTG USB ?
How much punishment could the volume buttons take considering they would then be used many hundreds of times more than normal usage.

coz I dont want to carry around a game controller, If I'm on the bus where do I put the table?, or i'm at work (on my break time) I think is pretty much comfortable to hold the tablet an be able to press a button instead of connecting a game controller.
regarding the punishment on the button you may be right jeje but if we don't try we will never know
I just sent madfinger games a tweet. They are always open to suggestions.
I tweeted them last week to include a ping Meyer in the score menu and they said they will do that.
Maybe they can do this. Deadzone would be a killer with this feature.
I said maybe it could be an option to enable in the settings menu.

That`s great! Maybe they can give some light, we know that not all the android devices have the buttons on the same place but an in-game option to map the game action to a button will be perfect

No, but i think I can use my left hand in the same way as I use it to type or make the games go with my thumb, it will depend on the person's dexterity.
I wasnt able to get a OTG cable yet so I will try to make one and share the results
When I say "Hi Galaxy" with the screen off, S-Voice opens, but does not listen until I say the phrase a second time. Has anyone else encountered this? I am rooted, with Xposed installed.
Edit:
I'd really like to get to the bottom of this issue, if someone with some experience could give me some feedback. I believe I first attempted to use S-Voice after rooting with root de la vega. It has never opened in listening mode (launched from app drawer or with the screen off feature), even after upgrading to MJ7 (kept root with survival mode in SuperSU), or flashing Beans Rom in SafeStrap. This has led me to believe this is a hardware or kernel issue, but I'm not the most knowledgeable person about these things. Therefore, any feedback would be much appreciated! TIA
Thank you for your feedback

Update: From what I've seen, when I open S-Voice from the app drawer, it should open in listening mode. Anyone have an idea why mine does not?

Update 2: I now use Tasker to close S-Voice when it opens, and start Google Voice Search! Doesn't listen as quickly as the Moto X, takes about 3 seconds, but no complaints here!

I am also having the issue. When I say "Hi Galaxy" or when I just open S Voice it does not open in listen mode. Any ideas?
Same issue here, no luck with clearing data or cash for the app. I'd be fine with the Tasker to Google Search deal but I was having fun with the turning on/off bluetooth and wifi using voice and a few other features S-Voice has, despite being not as reliable. I just went ahead and installed utter to be able to get the functionality of both, but I can't say my battery life is all that great with so many different things going on at once now.

You might not want to close S-voice, but rather just open Google now on top of it. If you close it, I don't think the screen-off "Hi galaxy" command will work next time around.
I have the same issue... Then I realized something. I have Pebble app for my SmartWatch. I disabled the accessibility service for pebble and it works now. So is it pebble or s voice?

Can you share that tasker profile please. I can't use that damn app to save my life. I started using automateit pro because it dumbs it down but that app won't open voice search only the regular Google app.

Create a profile, select application, select S-voice, delect new task, new task, name it .. In the task edit screen, create action, app, load app, and select Voice Search, and don't make any changes in the action edit screen.. make sure it's active on the profile tab, and try it out.. xda has a great tasker tutorial on youtube! Check it out!

I was worried about that when I created that task.. Tasker could not seem to close S-voice so it didn't effect me. When I realized it wasn't closing, I removed that action. I am interested in how the note 3s always listening feature differs from Motos 8x technology. And if Utter! has the potential of being this energy efficient?

As I remember it comes as a part of the kernel for those devices including LG G2, since there aren't any custom kernels out for these devices yet I highly doubt that's a possibility right now.
you can opt for proximity actions for locking and unlocking, although it would drain your battery a bit.
I'm using Wakeup Touch Nexus which is available in Google Play for free. Dint notice any battery drainage. Very nice app. If anyone got better app can suggest me too...

Pretty much every major OEM like Sony, HTC, LG and even Chinese manufacturers like OPPO , Xiaomi etc have implemented double tap to wake on their large screen phones and I really don't know what's stopping Samsung to implement in spite of so many Note generations .
Only way to properly implement this is using a custom kernel for the device
Tap Tap App @ Play Store
Tap Tap App works for me. Galaxy Note 4.
Requires configuration.
Lost functionality, how to get it back?

OK, I've got a VKWorld VK6050S (note the S). This will be a long story, but I feel I must post many details. Otherwise, there will be that smart-*** posting "but you can't do that!!!"
Had the phone for several weeks now. Took a LONG time to set it up and get it running EXACTLY the way I wanted it to. As part of that process, I installed Nova launcher, and an app called "DTSO". Anyway, when it was all set up.... I could double-tap the home screen to lock, and the display would go black. Then, *without using the proximity sensor*, I could double-tap the middle of the BLACK screen, which would cause the display to wake up and display the lock screen. I didn't set a lock on this screen, so I could just swipe up to clear it. Note I could double-tap the BLACK screen to wake it up.
So I was happy with the way everything was set up. Only problem was, it was not stable. Most of the time, if you tried to take a picture, the phone would freeze. (forever). Or sometimes a reboot would take HOURS (starting after the animated vkworld logo displayed) I tried several suggestions. It was not a bad memory card, and it was not corrupted files on a memory card. I tried clearing various caches, etc. Nothing worked. Finally, in desperation...I went to the factory boot menu (chinese, but I found a guide for it) and cleared hardware cache / emmc / whatever. That left me with *** CHINESE LOLLIPOP ***, and all my apps/settings/data were GONE...
(sigh)
So I had to start from figuring out how to switch back to English. And then starting all over again. I wasn't back to "zero". I went back to "minus one". (!!!!)
After many hours setting up the phone again with dozens of applications, getting my account settings input, getting it all configured...
The only thing I can NOT do now is to double-tap the black screen to wake it up. The phone is rock-solid STABLE now, so that is an improvement. But I want it to wake the screen with a double-tap, like it did before!!!
I'm now using "Go" launcher. But I (temporarily) tried "Nova" launcher, like I had it before. DTSO does not work like it used to. It won't wake up the screen while black. Again, this USED TO WORK, so it's not a hardware issue. What did I do wrong? What did I miss in setting this thing up again?
