Does anyone know how to modify the OS to report that the phones one of the very poor selection the lazy people at skype could be bothered to make it work with?
Or would it require a mod to the app itself (same question who knows how to do this?)
Thanks in advance
Maybe modifying the build.prop? Just a guess!

Yep. Can confirm. Crashes a couple of seconds after you hit Sign in.
The problem is that the contained native code .so's seem to contain NEON instructions which the Tegra 2 can't execute.

If everyone took that attitude, XDA forums and the like wouldn't exist because we'd all be sat waiting for HTC / LG / Skype etc to update software...
These forums exist because the developer community can usually make things work better than the software vendors or before the software vendors.
This has already been hacked to work on the Galaxy S and S2.......

That is not bad, though I find it slow. You can also try the one listed on the Market called Voice Actions. Does not have the graphic interaction of Speaktoit but works faster and smoother from me trying both out each for a couple of weeks.

You have to have voice search installed. And also Pico tts, I hope that helps.

Imo voice search is all you need. right now these other programs are not much better than voice search. all you benifit from these voice apps is a robot voice that talks back to you.
i just got my note 3 today and was trying to use google map app to take me back to work to see how it works but i realized it is using that robotic voice from S voice instead of the original voice which google has on google map, has anybody else noticed it !!! it makes you forget about using a google map as a navigation. any fixes please.

Supposedly, should go to settings - controls - language and input - text-to-speech (TTS) options - Samsung TTS engine and press configure cog. Then install voice data and download high quality voice female, but it doesn't do anything (in my case just a popup window that says it will download and nothing else happens). Can you please check this on your device also? It might be a software bug

Yup, same here. I want the Google voice, not the HD samsung voice.
I have this problem on my Huawei P6, and from doing reseach I believe it's the TTS. If you look at under language and input, there is no Google-Text-To-Speach engine, but instead just the Samsung one.
I still couldn't find a way to download (or where to download the app for that matter) the Google TTS engine.
I hope some can figure this out, because that Samsung voice is really annoying. The funny thing is, Google Now have the correct voice/sound.

in the text to speech menu under advanced samsung has HD voice downloads and they all sound really good. and there free
I took a peek on the link provided as far as a work around for this issue/annoyance, and seems like a lot of work.
Anyway, I've found an easier solution. You have to be rooted and have Titanium backup. Not sure if it will for everyone, but it sure works on my phone.
All I did was freeze the Samsung TTS engine, and like a miracle my Google maps now sounds wonderful (it use the Google voice/speech) now.
Let me know if this works for you guys.
I'm happy now.

Looks like the latest Google Search update is testing always listening (lock screen, apps) for OK Google Hotword detection. Only for "certain accounts" at the moment though.
with Search 3.5 installed, certain Google accounts are now able to use “OK Google” Hotword detection in any screen, including the lock screen and third-party apps. Unfortunately, this feature is only available on a few accounts at the moment, but hopefully the rollout continues quickly.

I guess your account isn't one of the few.
Do you guys think it is just random accounts, or would these account holders know ahead of time that they have these special permissions? I'm assuming it's for accounts which signed up for some beta testing.
You are right. It might be for early beta testers.

Started working for me as soon as I installed the apk. Haven't done anything special as such to get it. You can get the hotword detection working from settings. Basically, it works exactly like a moto x except it doesn't work when the phone is both not being charged and also the screen is off. Waiting for custom hotwords now, "OK Google" seems kinda lame.
I read that it's being released in waves to different users and you also have to be on the latest Google play services 5.* But it is being rolled out in a back end search update in waves, few reports of users already having it.

Haha it's the "XBOX ON" issue all over again. I think maybe it should stop listening when the speaker is outputting sound since they're right next to each other.
