[Q] Can't figure out how to make VLINGO my default - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

Hello,
I'm still testing out the S4. With the Svoice it always confirms the person I want to call even when it has it right. I can't figure out how to disable voice confirmation as it seems to NOT understand when I say yes on the confirmation.
I installed VLINGO which on my old android and it automatically became the default but I can't figure out how to make it the default voice interpretation app when I click on my BT headset.
I ONLY use voice from BT to make calls from my existing contacts, I don't want to know the weather, I don't need it to search the web for people's contact info, I really just would love reliable and simple voice dial.
Thanks

Did you clear defaults from S Voice?

I've given up on VLINGO - I checked and it isn't BT activated currently. I tried a few other items and they don't seem to work properly on the S4 - possibly a newer version of Android issue.
I just have to find out if there is a way to disable the confirm on dial in S voice.

The "Reply All" function in SMS

Sorry in advance if this has specifically been addressed. Doing a quick search didn't seem to cover it.
And I started an exact thread over in the Inspire 4G General forum, not knowing where to post it. As I understand, this would be a better place to post this question.
Is it possible for the experts here in XDA to write something into Android's code to allow for a Reply All feature in SMS, like in iPhone's SMS? I'm thinking the Reply All feature must be unfixable because there is conversations all over the internet for people requesting Google to fix it. Some have even stayed with Apple because they would miss that feature too much.

There are 3rd party apps working on this. Only google will be able to add the function to the default and to be honest it doesn't seem high on the list
Scroll to the bottom - some hope it seems..

Thanks for the link. Hopefully this gets put into Google's basic code and baked into Android.
Questions should be asked in Q&A forums, not Development forums.

Indeed this supposedly is put into AOSP JB 4.2 ROM's natively now. I just hope I can get a ROM for my Inspire, but if not, at least it'll be there for future and some present phones.

[Q] Ditching SVoice for Voice Dialing via Bluetooth?

I posted this on other Android message boards, but I didn't get much of a response, so I'm trying it here. Here's my issue - when I try to use the voice dialing via Bluetooth headset, the phone uses SVoice to try and detect what I want to do and who I want to call. 99% of the time, I'm trying to call my fiance. So far, SVoice has failed to recognize her name 100% of the time. I realize it's a hard name to pick up (it's an Asian name) but Google was able to recognize it 100% of the time when doing the exact same thing on the exact same bluetooth headset 100% of the time correctly.
Is there a way to NOT use SVoice and instead use the built in Google Voice recognition on our Note2's?

Thanks, I was going to delete/readd it to Q&A after I realized my goof but couldn't figure it out. :good:

google voice call log play back

Less than 10 posts so can't post where it needs to go but if some could verify google voice with carbon rom. I have the option ticked to play back through the call log. I see the play marker for the voice mail play back but when trying to play it goes back to home screen (exits dialer). If someone happens to see this in this forum would verify and notify whoever needs to know. I'm most likely gonna try another ROM but thought someone might wanna know.

Did anyone tried this application?

Hi, after installing a JB ROM, did anyone tried this application?
Utter!
I actually need some help in setting up the application for offline voice recognition. I can't even get google offline typing to work as well. It needs internet connectivity to work. Any help will be appreciated.
EDIT:
I've un installed google search and voice search and re-installed them from play store. Now Google offline typing works well. I need help in setting up utter for offline

I'm sorry avinash. Will do accordingly from now on. I just want to know if anyone had installed and get the app to working in offline mode, so that I can seek their help
EDITon't know how it worked, but after changing the language to EN-UK, app start to work offline, later I changed the language back to EN-US, working as well.
MODS, please you can close this thread now

S Voice

My last device was a Nexus S 4G which allowed me to long press the button on my headset to voice dial. It also gave feedback like when it expected me to talk and what it thought I said, example;
<long press>
"voice dialing"
"speak now"
me "call soandso"
"calling soandso" OR "call soandso on work or mobile?"
etc
It seems like with S Voice there is no feedback, you just about have to look at the screen in order to use it which seems like it defeats the purpose. Am I missing something in the settings here? I disabled the app and it reverts back to something similar to what I am used to but I am just wondering what other people think about it/do about it.

Seems to me there are a couple of settings that control voice feedback. One of them is the little face icon on the lower left I think.
