[Q] GNote voice control + BT headset = Inconsistent and VERY UNRELIABLE experience. - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is this a rant or do I have valid questions? I guess the moderators will decide.
I have done a bit of searching here and on Google about: Vlingo, GoogleVoice Talk, Samsung powered by Vlingo on the GNote and I cannot believe I am not catching more hits about others “complaining” about the inconsistent behavior and general unreliability of voice control on Android and the Gnote in particular.
Add Bluetooth to the mix and it becomes MOST frustrating. I use a PlantronicsVoyager Pro+ headset.
I long push the BT headset button and never know what to expect; will it work this time, will it not?
· When I get a response from the phone, by that Imean the phone switches to the voice control app, It sometimes announces how many missed calls I have and then prompts me “voice talk is ready” or at other times “Vlingo is ready”. Sometimes it just announces how many calls I missed and goes no further, at other times after announcing the number of missed calls it will continue on to state that “it” is ready at which point I can say “Call blahblah at home” etc.
· Many times the phone just does not react at all as if I did not long push the button on my BT headset even though in Settings> BT settings on the phone it shows that the headset is paired.
· Some days, when the line item above occurs, I click on my “paired” BT headset listed in BT Settings and I can hear the acknowledgement tone in my ear “The Voyager also has a voice that states “Phone 1 connected “ and then I can initiate a call via BT. After I end the call the connection to my BT headset drops off again and I cannot initiate another BT session unless I again tap on the paired BT headset listed in BT settings..
· I can often resolve these issues by either powering off\on the BT headset or by rebooting the phone.
· Again, without changing any settings in Vlingo,Voice Talk or with BT settings; Some days I get an announcement that I have a new TXT message (in my headset and via the speaker which of course to me should be either\or but not both, sometimes the announcement tells me who sent the TXT msg. and speaks out the message that was sent, other days I don’t even get an audible notification.I am NOT making any changes to any of the settings at this point.
· Somewhere in the settings section of the phone,Vlingo or is it voice talk I was able to select a specific sound to play for incoming TXT messages which I have yet to hear played when a TXT msg. is received.
Oh and yes, there is a difference in the way things behave based on if the phone is charging or not or if the screen is off or not.
I also find it rather confusing with the various settings that control all this being spread across numerous different settings screens. By that I mean Android has a settings> Voice input and output” page Vlingo has its settings pages, Voice Talk as well and who the hell knows which one has president over the other, or which program is going to do your bidding, etc.
All very confusing and unfocused IMO.​
I wonder if anyone at Samsung, Vlingo or Google for that matter has tried to use this “Voice activated solution” on a daily basis.
I’d like to see the chairman of Samsung, Geesung Choi, give this a go and hear his opinion on all this as Samsung has gotten into bed with Vlingo on the GNote to the point where you cannot disable it.
I come from Windows Mobile and MS Voice Command which obviously is not in the same league as these solutions, nor with Apples Siri BUT for what MSVC was, it was reliable and one could count on being able to use voice control over BT and expect it to make a damn phone call or tell you the correct time without sending you to a website.
I am not sorry for the rant here!
It seems to me that the Android OS, these third party voice solutions and the whole thing needs to be more cohesively integrated within the OS and the various apps (email, messaging, calling, etc.) and implemented in such a way that it simply works reliably!
I know that some of the inconsistencies I list above may be due to a variety of causes. HW, SW, BT stack, Voice Apps, etc. and not to forget pilot error (me). But we are dealing with a great phone, a highly configurable OS and a great BT headset and the results are less than stellar here.
We are upon ICS and if this stuff does not “come together” in its implementation and become much less fragmented and confusing on how to configure the mess of settings, Google should not be surprised to see many people choose the iPhone because no matter what one thinks of the iPhone, it isv ery consistent and cohesively thought out and gives the end user a feeling that I wish I had, and no I am not a fanboy of the iPhone, I am simply statinga fact that many people would agree with.
“It simply works”.
Not to lose sight that I am asking questions here:
Am I the only one experiencing these inconsistencies and frustrations?
Am I the only one who sees these settings spread out all over the place as less than ideal?
Do we have to accept that Android is an open environemt to mean a lack of consistency in the way apps are configured and customized?
Is everyone just "dealing with it" and willing to accept this as status quo?
AND PLEASE DO NOT FLAME ME for sharing my frustrations and my opinion. I need to be able to rely on hands free communications and I need it to work. I need the large screen of the GNote and I love what Samsung has given us.
BUT
I need it to work!
I will now go back and play with all these settings and see if I can make sense of it all.

Recording Conversations "Through" your phone

Please forgive me for posting this thread as I know it's redundant; however, I have searched the forums and have not seen any questions with the same ingredient as I am going to ask.
My biggest "grunt" about the Kaiser (and every other HTC phone for that matter) is that it is unable to record phone calls "internally" through the phone. I have searched and searched for this option and haven't come across anything that's decent. All applications that are out there record the call “externally” and have very poor recording capabilities. I am not interested in taking Notes; I am interested in recording conversations.
What has struck this conversation up again is a little program by the name of "BTAUDIO". This program allows you to listen to music and other forms of media through your BT headset. I haven't quite figured out how this would enable “internal” phone call recording, but it seems as though it pushes us a step closer to our success.
I would be interested in hearing from talented programmers who can possible use this to enable internal phone call recording.
One more thing... please hold back the "Law" aspect of this conversation, I know it and don't want to hear it. Nor do I want this thread to be about "The right thing to do".
Thanks for your input!
Yeah, I wondered about that too. Even if we can't record a conversation through the main phone speaker, could it be possible to record a conversation that is passing through to a wired or BT headset?
the answer to the questions: no, it's not possible to hack into the BT stream. The TekSoft guys have tried it hard - no success.
What I rercommend is, if having a separate phone & PDA isn't a prblem, is getting an additional HTC*s310 (oOxygen). It's able to record calls. Alternatively, if you have more money to burn, get the N95: then, you'll have the best of both (Symbian and WM) worlds.
I also recommend my related articles inj the Wiki - I've published a LOT of articles on the subject.
I am using resco audio recorder, too bad it only record my voice, not the other party.
So I really want to know is there any solution for the kaiser phone.
Thanks!
Get a Grandcentral account. It will enabled you to record any phone call you are having (both parties), by simply pressing 4 on the number pad. The recorded conversation is saved online and can be downloaded to your PC.
Edit: I also thought I would add this: When you record a conversation with grandcentral, it *will* notify the other party they are being recorded. Some states require by law that you notify the other party they are being recorded in a phone conversation. If you are looking for software that will record without notifying the other party, you may be breaking the law, depending on what state you live in (if you live in America, obviously).
How about PM recorder?

[Q] Voice not supported with Bluetooth Stereo?

Hello everyone,
I'm a recent convert from an iPhone 5. Work took over everyone's cell contracts so I thought why not try it. So far it's been a mixed bag. The hardware is great: nice big screen, loud speakers, decent camera. But, there are somethings that have me scratching my head, like the lack of unified email, on-screen notifications, etc. I've managed to work out most of them but one that is really bugging me is voice control in my car.
I have a JVC X50-BT stereo. With my iPhone, I could hold the call button and it would invoke Siri. With Siri I could send messages, ask for addresses, or pick music to play. With the One, the voice button says "Not Supported". I'm able to stream music and use the next/prev buttons, go through the phonebook, recent and missed calls, but the call/voice control button doesn't work.
Does anyone know of a work around or way of achieving this? I know it may sound like a small thing but leaving the phone in my pocket and being able to do these tasks without taking it out or looking at it while I'm driving is important. I didn't think that it could support all the other features over bluetooth except for this one.
I'm running HTC Sense 4.2.2 (flashed) on a Telus phone.
Thanks.

[Q] Bluetooth headset issue

Hi,
I've bought a "Jabra Stealth" headset and I'm unable to launch Google Now on my Nexus 6 (Android stock 5.0.1, FrancoKernel r8) with the dedicated button although it's a built-in feature of the headset. I assume that this is an issue of compatibility with Android 5.0. Jabra has answered me that I didn't configure vocal commands well but that's false. Has someone encountered the same problem and has a solution for it?
Thanks

I have a similar issue. I use a Plantronics Voyager Legend. A couple of issues:
1) press and hold of the action button will bring up "voice dialer" instead of "google now". I dont know if you've ever tried to use voice dialer, but i think its more or less deprecated since the nexus 1 was the new kid on the block.
There is an app for bluetooth on the app store that lets you choose what to launch with that button. however, it didnt work that well for me. lots of lag and it blended together with other bluetooth related issues.
2) Bluetooth never seems to "turn off". I have a smart sensor enabled headset. IE the phone should know if i have the headset on or not, and pipe phone calls and notifications and ringtones to the speaker if i dont have it on and to the headset if i do. instead, the phone constantly pipes EVERYTHING to the bluetooth headset. no fix yet.
3) phone connection to my car's bluetooth makes my audiobook start playing. I have no idea why. it is not a setting in the audiobook app. Seems that the fix is to disable streaming media over bluetooth (contacts/messages only)
From what ive witnessed with issues regarding audio, screen brightness, bluetooth, this is yet another half-baked google product with little to no attempt at a proper follow through. just a crap device rushed to market with tons of potential and a complete crap OS and barely any thought or usability effort put into anything except the home screen.
I also have the N6 with the P Legend. I am having issues where the caller can barely hear me. Do you know if you have this issue at all?

When the caller can barely hear you, check your phone. Sometimes, even though my headset is on, the phone doesn't care and attempts to use the phones speaker or mic.

That's my current issue...
I can answer the calls with either my truck or ear piece, but both will randomly not have audio. The phone says it's connected BT, but I have to switch the source to speaker or handset and then click back over to BT. The whole time while I'm begging the person on the other end not to hang up and to hold on a second. Not bad when I'm at my desk with earpiece....let's just say it's a bit more nerve-racking on the highway.

Same here. Also have a problem where, when on a call, an incoming call will kill bluetooth. This makes it unusable in my car as it becomes a real safety issue. I have to turn off BT and use the speakerphone which luckily is good enough for the job. Even switching the source and switching back doesn't always work for me.
I regret not sending the phone back for this problem. I'm waiting on v5.1 this month as rumored, hoping that will solve the problem. May just go back to my Lumina 925.
Has anyone tried going into Google settings app -> Search & Now -> Voice and turn on Bluetooth Headset (records audion through bluetooth headset if available).
I have Nexus 5 and Jabra Stealth and I had the same problem. I could solve it thanks to these indications: hackerspace.kinja.com/reassign-your-bluetooth-phone-button-to-open-google-n-1507391132
Same issue with calls not having audio through the car Bluetooth unless I switch to speaker/handset then back. I guess Marshmellow really messed up Bluetooth on a lot of people's phones not just us. Tried different rooms(AOSP, CM, stock) no help even tried updating the radio which helped Bluetooth crashing completely and requiring a restart but the phone issues remain.

Suggest a Hands-Free App for the Car That Actually Works...

I've been an Agent - Do Not Disturb app user for years now, on a number of phones. The app is not that well supported anymore (although there is one recent update), but it did provide the features I really need:
- Answer inbound SMS's and provide a totally hands-free experience: announce the text, read it, ask if you want to respond, read your message before sending, confirm that the message was sent.
- Do the same for email.
- Turn on only when connected to the BT in car. Exit app when car BT is disconnected.
- Provide an auto-response to alerting texters that you are driving
- Do not require that there is an ever-present "Dock" screen displaying on your phone the entire time you're in the car - some of us just want hands-free w/o docking our phone.
Unfortunately, Agent no longer works on my N5. It does not allow time to respond to voice prompts. Very frustrating. Interestingly, Google Now gets close, but there are outstanding issues that Google is working on.
I've tried a half dozen leading apps and worked with some of the devs to try to get the apps to work on my N5. Hard to determine if it's the app or something unique about the N5.
Anyone have an app that works for totally hands-free with an N5?
Guess not?

The Unofficial Android Auto Thread

Hi All,
I've been extremely excited about the integration of my smartphone with my car for a while. Almost anyone who would be in the market for a motor vehicle with an advanced head unit would also already own a smartphone with data access.
However, like any new use of technology, there are growing pains and Android Auto is no different. I have struggled through a few issues already and continue to grapple with others. A huge difficulty I had was simply finding discussion threads. Do I look on sites that focus on cars? On Android Auto? On Android OS?
So here it is. I'm starting a thread to pull together the most common problems and their solutions. Also, please note - I am not an expert in any of these things, just a user. I will give credit where I have a source but I am just gathering the info into one place and adding it to my own observations.
I haven't decided how this thread is going to look or if it will be small or big, so I will save the first few message placeholders in case and I will add known problems, work-arounds, and identified solutions as they come.
Hopefully this helps out some other users!
Troubleshooting:
I strongly suggest you make sure you have a good quality USB cable and confirm that you are able to connect your phone to your computer and transfer a file (some cables will allow charging but not data transfer).
1. Problem: Bluetooth won't pair, won't connect, etc.
Possible Solution:
It appears that Android Auto will attempt to create a BT profile. So
a) Delete the pairing on your cell phone
b) Delete the pairing on your car head unit
c) Turn OFF bluetooth on your phone
d) Plug your phone into your car's head unit. Depending on your settings, you may need to tell your car to launch Android Auto and you may need to select the device. If so, make sure you are selecting it in Android Auto (NOT Bluetooth pairing). Respond appropriately to any requests for authorization on your phone and car.
This should leave you with a properly paired device and car.
2. Problem: Every time I launch Android Auto, I have to pair my phone again!
Work-around: Once you have a working AA connection between the car and your device, go into the settings in the Android Auto app on your device and turn off the option to "Add new cars to Android Auto."
3. Problem: Android Auto notifies me of a new message but won't read it out loud/but starts to read it and cuts off.
It looks like there is a conflict between Google Now, Android Auto, and the Bluetooth handoff with the car head unit. Kudos to XDA member BuildaWall for discovering that turning off the BT headset option in Google Now fixed it for some people. I did a little more testing and found that forcing Android Auto to make your phone the primary source of audio seems to be the other piece.
UPDATE:I applied the August CM-13 Snapshot and this workaround no longer fixes the problem. I have reheaded it as a possible work-around as it might fix the issue for people on slightly older ROMs
UPDATE Sept 27/2016: I have upgraded to stock Nougat (Android 7). This issue still exists. However, after reading this XDA article, I tested an accessibility option. AA began reading the messages once again.
Possible Work-arounds:
A) Several people reported that their Media volume on their phone was being changed to zero when they plugged into AA. Some also reported that turning USB Debugging OFF fixed this issue. If you don't know what USB debugging is, don't worry about it; you would have to have intentionally turned it on. For volume, tap your volume rocker but then tap the drop down on the pop up volume notification.. It will expand to multiple volume sliders. For simplicity, make sure none are zero.
B) On your phone, go into Google Now, Options, Settings, Voice and then turn off Bluetooth Headset. This was reported to help by some but not didn't help for me.
C) On your car's head unit, in Android Auto, select a music option (I have Spotify and Google Play Music, but I think any audio source app within AA will work). If you don't want to listen to anything, just play and then pause/stop it but you CANNOT go back to the car as a primary source (eg radio or sirusXM).
D) On Nougat (Android 7) go to settings, accessibility, and enable one of the options (I have tested Voice Access, but in theory, activating any accessibility option should reactivate the message reading in AA.
4. Reported with work-around by @ReppinTheSouth - Android auto either being laggy or flat-out disconnecting
ReppinTheSouth observed this on a Pioneer avh 4100 and a galaxy s4 and reported August 7, 2016
Suggested Work-Around: Clearing the phone's cache periodically seems to help a lot. I also added a swap file which has seemed to help even more.
5. Reported by @ReppinTheSouth - When driving in maps with voice commands enabled, it will freeze sometimes right when a voice command is about to come on. My GPS will no longer track and my head unit at least an Android auto is completely unresponsive.
I'm not listing this as a work-around, as it doesn't resolve the problem, but is still good to know: @ReppinTheSouth advises: This only happens when voice commands are enabled & Unplugging and replugging the phone gets the head unit out of its frozen state.
More to come!
Tips and Tricks:
I will use this page to list tips to improve performance or usability that don't fit under troubleshooting.
1. Keeping the phone screen alive and accessible.
Please exercise safe driving habits.
TL; DR:
Turn on Developer options
Turn on Stay Awake
Optional: if you have a security lock you may want to add your car Bluetooth as a trusted device for smart lock so it doesn't lock you out.
Details:
Android Auto changes your screen timeout to 15 seconds every time it is activated. When combined with its flaws with hangouts chat notification (no groups, can't initiate a new chat without certain contact book entries, can't access chats that began before connecting to AA) it is VERY frustrating.
Access the Developer Options menu
Settings >>> About Phone
Scroll to the bottom and tap the Build Number option seven times in a row. You will get some sort of message saying you have access to developer options. You only need to do this once.
Settings >>> Developer Options
Make sure they are turned on. Next turn on the Stay Awake option.
Your phone will now allow dimming but won't turn off the display.
Optional:
If you use a security lock on your device, you may want to authorize your car Bluetooth connection as a trusted device under smart lock so it won't lock while connected.

Thanks for this thread Mad Medik.
However, I also have the same problem as number 3, but the workaround doesn't work.... I changed my phone Bluetooth Headset setting to off and I was playing my spotify music through Android Auto. Am I forgetting something here? what versions of AA and Whatsapp do you use?
Good thread and it is much needed as far as I am concerned. I have a Pioneer avh 4100 and a galaxy s4. One of the issues I have had is with Android auto either being laggy or flat-out disconnecting for no reason. One of the things I have noticed is Android auto seems to be a resource hog. Clearing the phone's cache periodically seems to help a lot. I also added a swap file which has seemed to help even more.
The other issue I'm having which I can't solve is when driving in maps with voice commands enabled, it will freeze sometimes right when a voice command is about to come on. My GPS will no longer track and my head unit at least an Android auto is completely unresponsive. I have to unplug my phone and then plug it back up to get it to work. This only happens when voice commands are enabled. I have not been able to resolve this issue.

Hi NLatuny & ReppinTheSouth!
@NLatuny - Thanks for the info. I just updated my Nexus 6p to the latest (august 2016) CM13 Snapshot, and the work-around no longer fixes the problem for me either. I've updated the original post. I think your request for version numbers is probably a good idea moving forward. I will update the original post to suggest that people include that in their posts.
@ReppinTheSouth - Thanks! I will look at adding those problems and your possible solutions for the lag to the top of the thread
Might be good to add a list of things you can and cannot do. For example, I found the other day through just trying you could ask various questions.
How old is (enter famous person here). = Correct answer.
I need to remember some of the other ones I've done. Good thread.
---------- Post added at 10:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:40 AM ----------
Perhaps also add how to get into Developer Mode, and what the settings in there do? The Force Day or Night mode thing is super useful.
I am not sure if this is the righjt place to ask, but I have been everywhere with no answer.
I Have a Galaxy s7 edge in a Mercedes a class. It connects just fine, but I cannot make calls saying "call >name>". Maps, Music, weather works just fine, but when I try to make a call, the woman just replies "not sure how to help you with "call..."". I can dial numbers as well BTW.
Making calls through Google Now works fine as well.
Any help would be much apiciated.

Check your permissions for Android Auto, you may have missed a few.
You can also uninstall and reinstall it.
I have tried all that, with no luck unfortunately
Having had a courtesy car for a few days that had an android auto system in I'm looking to purchase an android auto headunit for my car, probably after Christmas.
Until then I've been using my handsets connected to the aux input on my factory system. However since I got my Pixel handset last week I've encountered a couple of issues that weren't an issue on my m9 handset previously. I've reported then to the relevant support sites but as yet have received no response, so thought I would try you knowledgeable lot.
Firstly, when making or recurving phone calls with the aux cable connected the Pixel defaults to using the loudspeaker on the handset rather than putting through the aux to my car speakers.
Secondly, when receiving a message on WhatsApp i touch the screen too get it to read the message, it does so fine, then tells me I can press the mic soon symbol and say reply. When I do so I'm told "this chat app is not installed or needs an update". The app is installed and is up to date. I can send WhatsApp messages by saying "send a WhatsApp message to...." but can't reply.
Lastly, when I ask it to play specific tracks on Spotify it often comes back with no search results. Songs that I used to ask it to play regularly on my previous device come back as no search results found. Searching manually the tracks are there and can be played. And it isn't all tracks, some tracks are found without issue.
Thanks in advance.
Also hope this is in the right thread, I notice you seem to be taking mainly about the in car systems but as it can now be used on most android phones without a dedicated in car system I figured many would be doing so.
Hi folks, sorry for the absence. My N6P died on me in November and was sent away for warranty repair. Long story short, I'm very disappointed with Huawei and futuretel. Two months later, the process ended with me owning an unfixed Nexus 6P which is still under warranty until February 2017. It has a defective motherboard according the repair center but they will not repair it. So, after 2 months of making do with an iPhone 6 with a broken screen (wife's old phone), I have moved on to a One Plus 3T.
Irritatingly, Apple Carplay worked flawlessly for that time. Typical of Apple it was very locked down and had limited options. But in fairness, it executed those few features very well. Come on Google!
[/end rant]
I'm back and will try to get the thread up to date.

Hello, thank you very much for this information, is very useful.
In my case, I have a Le Pro 3 X720 and is nightmare with AA, when I plug the phone on my Hyundai car the phone only charge so I had to change their ROM to lineage is 14.1 (Android 7.1.2) and with this AA starts quickly but after 5 minutes the screen is freeze then change the cable but it doesn't work, I change the cable again with the same result, so I back to use the original leeco cable and change their ROM again, with the same result, after 5 minutes the screen is freeze, the last one is AICP 12.1 (Android 7.1.2).
Do you know how to fix this?
Thank you in advance for your response.
Hello everyone,
i found this thread and i hope that is the correct one for my problem.
In the first page i read that AA set the screen timeout to 15sec when activate, but in my case, the timeout remain also after when i unplug the phone from my car.
If i manually set the timeout to 5 minutes, after the first screen lock, it return to 15sec and this is so frustrating.
So i tried to set the stay awke mode in the developer options, but i see that the description of this setting is "when is on charge" (i'm italian, i don't know the english description, sorry), there is some walkaround to fix the 15sec also after the unplug ?
Thanks in advance

Hi Mike,
You should say what phone and android version you are using. I have used both a One Plus 3T on Oreo beta and an LG V30 on 7.1.2.
The screen timeout sets to 15 sec when I plug in, but returns to normal when I unplug.
