Does anybody know of an app or hack/mod that gives total voice control for people of low vision/blind?
I'm trying to find such a thing for a friend who wants to get an android tablet but this seems to be the biggest drawback- no apps that do this. I have found some that mainly do voice and texting but nothing to the extent of total voice control.
Now by voice control I mean something that can be activated by a short press or double press of the power button or volume keys etc.
Please no smart ass remarks. Regardless of a persons ability to see or not, they should be able to use a device if they so choose.
Thanks for any help in advance.
you are evolutionary success, act like it
Any suggestions? Anyone?

if u are asking for a powerful siri alternative for android, there is no such thing. To be honest I'm not sure even siri would be powerful enough to do everything u are asking. Sorry
There is nothing like that for Android.
Thanks guys, appreciate your time in looking

Hi guys i found a way of when ur on ur dialpad to dial a number and one would press and hold a key for instance 1-9 including * and # that the phone will actually say the number out loud and also when you have a call waiting it could play an mp3 in your own ear instead of beeping. I dont know if here is an app out htere to do it but i can write it quite quickly if people would be interested?
It basically just adds keys to the registry to play an mp3 when u press and hold a key. I added the mp3s i use but would lik a lot more from other people so please upload then we can have a few different ones to use
Hey guys inphy a friend of mine is actually developing the app, this is the first beta, it only supports files to be in \my documents\ but it should work fine, have a look and ill geive him some feedback on waht to change etc.
Bring it on!
wow i want
Me like...
Give it to us
I can't wait to get it into my fingers!
Sorry, I mean "to get it on my Neo"!
niiiice idea
waiting you
Well i'm in, i'm always looking for ways to customise my mobile. And try to set it aside from the average joe.
On an extra note a customise app to include such things as being able to asign new keyboard slide sounds from an application. So you can choose a slot(1-0) then a name "Transformers" then choose the slide in sound and out sound separate. This would save everyone messing directly with the registry, renaming and moving files and such. Surely not too complicated for someone with programming knowledge. Find reg keys under Hkey_local_machine\Software\HTC\Slidingsound
Thanks look forward to this app and anything from this coder/programmer in the future.
Thank you once again.

i wait for your new app
be quick
The Idea with saing the name instead of the knocking sound on bussy Line sounds great

Hey Grumps sounds great, very useful application...
Nice, I actually watched a video of this app. of YouTube last week sometime. A user had this installed on his iPhone, and I thought it was great!
just have one thought. it would make the response of the system little more. so you might feel some sluggishness

Thanx in advance, mate.
nice idea, but arent there a lot of people turn the key tab sound off to speedup the dialing process?
sounds great
i tested a lot of apps, but never came acros something like you mentioned.
i would love something like that!!!!

Indeed !
But maybe just little "sacrifice" speed up, we can get other "plus" point, such like you can dial without see the touchscreen while driving ???
Me too!!!
This is a great idea!
yes yes yes !!!
I'd Love it!
That would be awesome! Thanks dude.
My wife has this on her dumb cell phone. It's great for hands free dialing and would be a nice addition to WM.
anybody have tried this app? please share your experience.
tried it, like the features, but it does not work with better keyboard so unfortunately, I continue to hope for a backport of voice actions
Great app, provided me with hours of fun, once you know all the commands can work very well as long as you speak clearly.
When you dont speak so clearly some of the stuff it comes up with is brilliant!!!
Only really works very well in quiet backgrounds.
I think it works great. I've set it up with tasker to start the in-car app whenever i plug in a headset with mic.
I like it and it works nice even knowing that english is not my first language but i think it should support more languages.
EDIT: i just read that there is a spanish beta on BB...
I wish i could say love it but heres the thing....whenever i try to text my girlfriend, i get a window with add recipient on top and the text box at the bottom with no option to send....
vlingo registers my gf and gives me the option to click on her phone number but thats about it...help?
Does anyone know how I can get this app to automatically start when connected via bluetooth headset? Well it's a car navigation system but it should still work the same. That option doesn't seem to work for me.

Doesn't seem to be the case for me, I work in a noisy factory and it actually works better than when I'm in a quiet surrounding, weird because any other app using voice recoqnition doesn't work at all. I am truly impressed with this app.
On a side note... Iphone fanboys at work installed the "free" Vlingo app after they saw mine working, when they went to send the text they were informed that to use the texting feature it was $6.99. Ha Ha apple strikes again.
Is this app working 100% for you guys?
Works OK, problem I find is that it needs to connect to the Vlingo servers (via wifi or data) to check what you're saying before actually typing into text. So I stopped using it because of the charges I'm incurring.
Too bad it won't run off the SD card.
Vlingo Rocks! ***** Thumb's Up
I'm in Transportation and there is no better app when I am on the road. FREE and LOADED with useful features beta car mode is fantastic! As long as music is at reasonably low level and I speak loud and clear; it gets every word. Bluetooth settings are there, but I believe I need Android 2.2 or 2.3 on my X10 to use bluetooth as voice command mic. Other than that, it is a winner like Swype!
im having trouble with vlingo, it doesnt follow my instructions
Hi Community,
Let me jump right in! I recently purchased a backbeat 903+ since i was nearly in an accident fiddling with my phone while driving. And i have quickly learned to do some of the basic features such as calling etc.
I had a small hickup at the start when none of the headset buttons would do anything. I am synced and connected in bluetooth, but realized i never downloaded Nuance as an extra from the blackhole roms page. I am currently running Blackhole 4.3 (whatever the newest one is as of today).
Ok on to my question. I can get Nuance to bring up the text message screen, but i can not figure out how to make it type. I have tried just about everything i can think of. I searched all over youtube and found a video of some guy doing it, but when i try the same thing it doesnt type what i dictate or even ask me to speak.
So any advice is welcome, and i want to thank every one for your time reading, and answering in advance.
Just an update i downloaded the flext9 which someone suggested. It has the voice feature but im trying to keep it hands free. Right now my Call/ Action button on my 903+ does not begin voice recognition once in the text message. so i have to pull out my phone, press the voice button then talk and then hit send.
I found a program called voice actions that allowed me to do what i needed, but i cant figure out a way to bind it to my BT Call/Action button, everytime i press it nuance comes up.
Thanks again for any help!
does anyone know how to get voice actions or jeannie work. i have tried different ROMs but i cant hear it talking back to me. I have even purchased us grace package but still can't hear any thing.
also any suggestions for a software similar to siri in iphone?
thanks
i have a annoying friend with a iphone, and keeps showing off it's SIRI app and every time he's done telling it something, and it replies, he tell's " does you android do that?" then i tell him no, then he says "i didn't think so", so please help me find the best voice app, either just like SIRI or better, today i will say "yeash, h*ll yeah, my android does that, and better", so please help
gs2 have voice recognition built in, just press the home button twice. If you want someone to talk to get iris from the market.
Well, you do have the inbuildt voice thing when you doubble press the home button, or you can download iris from Play store

you have already gun on your (avatar) hand shooooot him up....
The closest one to Siri (in looks) is "andy".
but choose Iris or Siri or Skyvi for best functionality.
Voice Actions, iris., Speaktoit, Vlingo Virtual Assistant, AIVC, Skyvi, Edwin Speech-To-Speech, EVA Intern, OMEGA - Virtual Assistant, EVAN Intern, DROID Virtual Assistant. Enjoy

Jesus Christ, if you want to show how much better Android is, flash CM9 or AOKP and show him off all the customization.
Plus, face fx in video. Plus Flash support. Plus 1080p @ 30FPS w/ 30Mb/s support. I could go all day.
Let him show you Siri.
You just change your battery.
