[Q] how do I use voice recognition without data - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi I was wondering if there's a way to use voice recognition system without data?
It seems that in the setting, there's an option to use either Google or Samsung powered by
vlingo but is there anything I can use without data It?
Like before the smartphone came into our lives those small 2g phones would have voice dial functions prebuilt without data so why is it that my voice recognition system isn't working without data?
So

I think there are some apps that don't use a data connection. But with those you have to train the app to recognise your voice by pre-recording each action you want to undertake, and pre-recording all your contacts.This is how the old voice recognition software used to work. They are very basic in their functionality though, and will not be able to do things like speech to text for messaging etc.

Speech to Text

hey all,
looking for a good (or great) app for Speech to Text. Mainly want to use it for SMS.
If your phone is rooted, I would reccomend flashing VillainRom 5.5 - it has Voice to Text feature in the keyboard so you can use it for SMS, e-mail, IM, etc
thank you very much
the voice to text keyboard, can someone send me a link to download on an unrooted Hero?
is there a speech to text app which does not require a data connection? I remember back with windows mobile there was a speech to text app which didn't need data connection.

To the best of my knowledge you need wifi or data to complete the process. Most rooted roms now have speech to text. Check out voice search on line. It is pretty sweet and is included on Android 2.2 phones.

[Q] I want google voice to call my cell number.

The google voice app for the ipod touch natively detects that the device is not a phone and so you can't directly make call with it. Instead you can dial a number and the app will then initiate a call to the phone number that you have linked to the account and then call the number that you dialed in google voice. I need to make my nook color do the same thing. It doesn't work that way though. Instead it gives you an error and it force closes. I am using phiremod 5.3. Any help is appreciated
I also use Google Voice to do texting - wish I could get GV to work on the nook as well.
can you text using GV on the nook color?
You can text with it, yes.
-m
I do text with it using Google voice. I use my google voice number as my business number. I text people all day using my nook. It works pretty well (I actually wish that I could use handcent to text while still using my GV number, but that is another issue entirely). Occasionally though, I would like to call some of the people that I am texting. So I either have to call them with my normal cell phone and just type in their number, but this way they get my cell number on their Caller ID and so they don't know that I am calling them, or I have to do the whole process of dialing my GV number and going through the prompts to enter in the number I want to call.
All I want to do is click on a number in Google Voice and have it call my cell phone and connect through google voice automatically. Right now my only option is to use the web-based interface to do this. Even though this is exactly what the ipod touch google voice app does. (I totally know that the ipod touch OS and android are obviously way different things, I am just saying). I would think that there would be a way to work around this. If not, google should make it so that there is the option of having GV call my cell number to initiate the call.
Being relativley new to the NC . How would one use this for a call. Is there a way to get voice into the unit? I am interseted if it can work but everything i have read so far does not show voice capability.
Any feed back would be appreciated.

if you ever use google voice a lot you will understand the question. no you can't talk through the nook using google voice. to do that requires a "full" voip like Skype. he wants to use the nook as a fancy dialer.
As for me i've just been using the web interface which is slow and buggy

Thank you for the clarification
if you just wanted to text and google voice is not working for you - try textfree

Google Voice Question.

I put my sprint number as my Google voice number. Does the stock messaging app still work? Should I disable it and use Google Voice? What about making calls from the Google Voice icon? Is that possible or do I need to use the normal phone icon?

I'm a Sprint Product Ambassador supporting the launch of the One.
The stock messaging app will reflect what is in your GV inbox. I recommend using the GV app itself wherever possible for the bext experience.
I don't see a dialer in the GV icon, I use GV to make all calls and just use the native dialer.
Let me know if you have any other questions.

This couldn't be further from the truth. I don't know of any advantage to use the GV app on a sprint phone (save for going through old texts that may be gone from phone). The beauty of Sprint and Google Voice is the fact that you can use all the native apps without having to deal with the GV app at all.
Having to wait for the google voice app to load the data from your google voice account via Sprint's data connection is just not efficient. Which also means its not even possible to send a text through the google voice app(or load it) without a data connection. Texts can be sent with no mobile data turned on.
Just setup the Sprint/Google Voice integration in settings at google.com/voice.
To each his own!

I never said it was a requirement. I use GV across multiple devices and have better luck with the GV app for messaging than the native app. You'll have to find out what works best for you.

Advantage to using the GV App: Messaging sync'd across multiple devices/screens. Easy to read conversations on your home PC, etc.
Advantage to using the stock messaging app: The ability to read/write MMS. These aren't directly supported by GV last I looked.

The OP's question was whether the stock messaging client worked and if he should disable it to use google voice. Not whether he could sync his google voice messages across devices and how it looked on his computer.
Using the stock messaging app to send through google voice doesn't change how it looks on his PC and whether his messages sent via stock app show up on his PC. They will always show up through the google voice app or google voice website.
I do agree though there are advantages to both. I use both apps for different purposes. I just find the GUI and notifications of the stock app(and GoSMS popups) to be far more informative than having to load up a program that has to connect to the internet and load before I can read or send a message. To each their own.

My experience was different when using my Epic 4G Touch. Messages that I sent using the stock app there were not sync'd across my google voice account. Only the received messages were shown everywhere. If that experience is different on other devices or I set it up improperly, I apologize. I also can't speak towards any experience with the GoSMS app.
If you initiaite an SMS session first from the GV app and you get a reply (assuming you have it in GV Settings to also receive messages to stock Messaging app), any messages you send and receive henceforth from the stock Messaging app will show up (synced) in the GV app.
I do this all the time. Why? Because the GV app is slow to refresh most times, Sprint's 3G speeds are not that great where i am so i am usually waiting for GV to refresh, and once i've gotten a reply i'm just using regular SMS really over the 1x network and still everything gets synced to my GV account.

Using Android firewall and GV push notification issues??

Hi, using my note n7000 with the At+t 250mb data plan. I have android firewall installed to cut down on unwanted data use and noticed that there have been some syncing/push issues with gmail and google voice (will get errors that could not sign in). I have "whitelisted" gmail, GV, and others, so I know I am allowing them to connect to the internet. Is there some basic system apps that I am not allowing internet access that may be causing this? When I am on wi-fi, all google voice texts are sent and received without issues. I noticed that when I am on HSPA/3G data, that sometimes the texts will not go through and I will get the sign-on error, yet when I use talkatone that the texts go through and are received fine (my understanding is that talkatone connects sperately to google servers). Any ideas? Thanks!!!
check the log part of android firewall, it should have denied lines. Some apps need other parts also enabled in order to be online, usually you can figure out which by the log.

[Q] Anyway to use my Google Voice number as the primary phone number?

I use my Google Voice number for everything. Currently I have to make and receive calls via Hangouts and Hangouts Dialer.
Does anybody know of a way to integrate the Google Voice number into the primary phone? I would rather use the built-in Dialer, similar to Project Fi.

call your provider, have them change your number to your google voice number? you cant use it other ways. it doesnt provide data, nor have a provider, so youd never be able to use it. if you have data, then you can use it. data doesnt come from the amazing data man.

I'm not saying to replace the primary number on my sim card. That's what I use for unlimited data. I just wish there were a way to select which number to use when using the stock dialer - tell it to dial with my GV number instead of sim number. Google Hangouts lets you do that.
My son does that. Install the Google voice app and set it up such that you use google voice for all calls. It's really quite easy to set up. None of us know remember his carrier number. Only his Google voice number

I totally forgot about the GV app. Yes, this will work. The ONLY downside is the GV app still uses my VZW plan minutes where Hangouts Dialer doesn't (its strictly data). So I have to balance the two since I'm capped to 700 minutes per month, which I rarely use.
