[Q] Voice dial using handsfree bluetooth

Hello,
I bought the app for voice dialing Voice Speed ​​Dial. It looks very good. You want to use the voice dialing via BT HF (via the button), but unfortunately I still starts with Voice and when you turn it off, so I started Google.
I would please ask you how you can nastvit it to run directly Voice Speed ​​Dial? Calmly, even if off or uninstall Google search with Voice - just do not use these applications.
Thanks so much for any advice.

How to nuke LG's awful bluetooth voice dialing and get Google Now instead

When Verizon pushed out the KitKat update for the G2, one of the "features" I discovered is that voice dialing from a bluetooth headset got all messed up. Long-pressing the headset button still brings up a voice dialer, but it's an idiotic voice dialer that can't understand what I'm saying and even if it does, certain numbers it just goes "no entry" even though I have multiple numbers in that person's contact file. It's garbage.
There is a way to completely get rid of this and instead use Google Now when you long-press the button on a bluetooth headset. Steps are as follows:
1. Find and disable the pre-installed app called Voice Command
2. Install the app Bluetooth Launch - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kin.bluetooth_launch&hl=en
3. Open Bluetooth Launch. It's going to be a bit funky looking because it's not optimized for higher-resolution screens. You'll see a bunch of really small text with overlapping buttons on the left. It's ugly, but it'll still work.
4. Scroll down to Google Search, tap on it, and it'll expand a list of a bunch of things. Tap on the one that says 'com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox.VoiceSearchActivity'
5. Pair up your bluetooth headset, and long-press the button like you would to voice dial. You should get a popup that asks which app you want to use. Select Google Search and then 'do this always' to set the default.
This should pop you over to Google Now, which can recognize voice commands just fine, unlike the worthless LG Voice Command. It should also make Google Now the default behavior for long pressing the bluetooth headset button.
Nice write up. Stock voice command works well for me along with non NOW search. I've boycotted NOW for it's ridiculous battery drain. At one point NOW and location services were decent in battery saving, recent service updates have made it worse though.
Thank you sir for showing us how to get back to using Google Now. After the latest Google Search update, BT dialing activated Google Dial instead, and this is the only fix I have found for it. So far this is working great on my Sprint Note 3, and I bet it will work for everyone's phone.

[Q] Google Voice Input?

Hi,
coming from the MotoX to the Z3 compact, I am missing the Voice Input. On the MotoX, I enabled "Google Voice Input" in the Keyboard settings. A little microphone key apeared on the Google Keyboard to start voice typing. On the Z3c, I cannot find Google Voice Input, and I cannot find it in the Play Store. Is there any possibility to download Google Voice Input to the Z3c, or is there any other app that works the same way? I don't wanna loose the Google Keyboard, because I like it more than any other keboard....
Thanks!
It's basically the same way on the Z3C.
Goto "Settings" -> "Language & Input" and you should see three (3) keyboards:
1.) Chinese
2.) Xperia
3.) Goggle Voiceinput
Obviously, #3 has to be ticked/enabled, else it won't work. After that, tap on the settings symbol (this screwdriver&wrench icon) right to #2 (the Xperia keyboard), scroll down and tick checkbox "Key for Google Voice Typing". That gets you the little microphone key.
Yepp, that were my thoughts, though, but i dont have Google voice input in that list on my z3c.

Install Google Keyboard, set it as default keyboard, problem solved.

As mentioned in first post, I use Google Keyboard as default.
Nevertheless, I found the issue. It seems like Google Voice Input is part of Google Search, what was disabled by me to check the influence on the battery. With Google Search enabled, I can enable Google Voice Input.

[Q] Google Voice Search - contact not found

Hi guys.
I've noticed that my Google Voice Commands stopped working. When I'am trying to call someone, my voice is well recognized but contacts are not found. Double-checked that I've them enabled in my google settings.
Not sure if I'm right, but maybe this problem started after rooting my phone.
Anyone got the same issue?

Problem setting up Google assistant

Hi guys,
I'm trying to set up Google voice typing. I want to enable the "Say OK Google any time" option.
Every time I want to enable this option, on the set up menu, it says that there is trouble with the microphone (see the screenshots).
Any ideas why is this happening?
solved by installing the beta version of google apps and google play services
