Is there any solution?
Thank you

[Q] One missed phone call, four different notices

I have an annoying issue with my phone and don't know if it can be remedied or not. I am sure that others may have the same issue. If I miss a phone call and the person leaves a voicemail I get four different app notifications. The icons in the notification bar include: missed call icon, email icon with possible transcript of voicemail, text message with possible transcript of voicemail and finally, Google voice icon with transcript and voice recording. I use Handcent for texting, gmail for emails and Google voice for voicemails. I would like to keep Google voice as I like the transcript and voice recording available in one spot. Is there a way to selectively not receive notices for phone calls from specific apps?

i wont be of too much help here, but i can suggest turning notifications off for such things as a bootleg temp fix until you figure it out.
ive never used handscent so that may be it, or more likely an app for transcripting voicemails as that seems to be the common factor here.

Moto voice assist and google hangouts

I think I already know the answer to this question but can't find it anywhere. Yes I know Moto voice assist will work with Google hangouts sending sms messages. What I want to know is if it can reply using hangouts and not through an sms. I almost exclusively use hangouts and only sms 1 person I know. Can the touchless controls reply directly using hangouts?
Yes, I have replied to multiple different texts sent through hangouts.
No it can't reply to hangouts messages, only SMS.
Thanks nimper. Thats what I thought

App to dictate voice messages/voice reply when driving?

Hi All,
One of my more useful apps in the past was "Agent".
When driving, I could have it read messages out out loud and do voice reply to them.
The voice reply doesn't seem to work on MIUI 8.
Does anyone have any alternate suggestions?

Google reminders won't notify me

Hi,
I have a problem with the Google app reminder feature.
When I create a notification with voice command, like "Ok Google, remind me to call Tim today at 16:00", the reminder is created but at 16:00 there's no notification of ringtone.
The reminder is still there when I open the Google app.
The same problem exists, when I create a notification inside the Google app without voice command.
How can I get it working? It's really annoying because I use it very often. Siri worked not as great as Google with it's voice recognition but the reminders worked perfectly every time.
Is it also possible to make a reminder as a calendar entry with voice commands?
Greetings,
Jannomag
Hi I tried the voice assistance app Lyra that I think is pretty good
I like the google assistant and still want to use it. Even though I need the assistant in German, I like system integrated things.

Whatsapp Calls via Android Auto

Officially it's not supported, I am aware of it, but maybe there is a solution somewhere ....
I can use Whatsapp and Whatsapp Calls using AA-Mirror but there a few downsides here:
1) I cannot answer Whatsapp Calls, because immediately my AA-mirror screen is switched to the AA-phone screen (but I cannot answer the call, because it's a not supported Whatsapp-call)
2) Placing a call via AA-Mirror requires manually opening Whatsapp, selecting the right contact and press call. It can be done on the car-screen, but it's distracting from the traffic
Another approach is using Tasker and AutoVoice. After pressing the microphone-key on my steering wheel, and 'Ok Google' I can use some shortcuts like 'talk to Contact' which launches Whatsapp, finds the Contact from my contact list, and calls using Whatsapp. It's working on the phone, but when using with Android Auto it's not. Either there is no reaction or I receive a reply 'AutoVoice is not supported on this device'. Ok, I am a beginner with AutoVoice so maybe there is a solution, but at the moment I am stuck here. (if there is interest, I am happy to provide details).
I also 'enabled' AutoVoice and Whatsapp for AA-Mirror (using AA Phenotype Patcher) but it did not help.
Not making this post too long, I am using a Xiaomi A1 running stock Android 8.1, and an Opel Astra
Any ideas and help are welcome!
Once a solution is found I am sure it can be applied to other apps like Skype ... as well
Thanks!
