V1.6 ALPHA!

Hi folks, V1.6A is attached!

The only change is to the Time Tab, with the inclusion of the World Time feature.

This is how it works:

1) "Time" - returns your local time and timezone

2) "Time thanks" - returns your local time only

3) "Time in" then "City Name, State (US only)" or "City Name, Country"

After "time in" is heard, ONLY the next two words are analysed. If you say three or more, it will throw an error (for now). So, you can't use 'thanks' at the end of a world time request (for now).

Including the world time requests has not been easy... and again a MASSIVE thanks to meadowsjared for his coding assistance.

Not only did I have to deal with Google returning associated suggestions, which could be wrong, I also had to deal with the same on the weather request server. The result is, you'll get the closest match to almost anything you say!

This actually can be quite amusing :D

I will make further improvements to the logic, but for an Alpha 'showcase' I think it's good enough to release for now. Unless you find any glaring errors, I'll probably leave it as it is and go on to the weather Tab now, as it will use similar code.

Ok, give a run folks and let me know it doesn't crash before I upload to the Play Store!

Thanks in advance!

brandall

Ps. Will catch up on your comments soon, honest! I do read them all, just haven't had a chance to reply.

Pps. I added some 'whitespace' to the titles in the tabs - did it do anything??

Ppps. OOPS! Forgot to change the version number - it'll still be showing V1.5. Will update to the apk on the front page

Any thing I can do to help testing?
[Android Apps and Games] CZ Eddie:
Hi Brandall,

I went ahead and bought two Bluetooth 4.0 receivers for my car. I'll list them below.

But unfortunately, the testing was the same on both. Everything works great until I enable the always-listening feature. When I do that, Utter works fine but it changes the audio stream to "phone" instead of "media". So any music that's playing, becomes mono instead of stereo and has very poor audio quality.

I did try with Google Voice set to record over bluetooth headset and also with that option unchecked. Both had the same result.

Oh, I did download the latest Utter from PlayStore just today. Same results. :)

I've attached a log cat of me listening to Pandora, then enabling the always-listening Utter feature. So you can see what it looks like in the logs.

Also attached pics of my Google Voice settings.

As for the Bluetooth units, here is the info.....

First one I bought is the Avantree Cara. This unit works fine but is kind of large and wires everywhere. I don't really recommend it:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D4438GW/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

The second unit I bought is the Kinivo BTC450. This is smaller and only has one wire for both power & audio & mic. I really liked this one and recommend it for anyone looking to add high-quality APT-X Blueooth 4.0 + Mic capability to their car stereo.

PS. I think it would be helpful to add maybe a half-second of audio at the end of anything Utter says. This would help sound less "abrupt" when it stops talking on Bluetooth? :)
[Android Apps and Games] Lord Childe:
You’ll appreciate I haven’t read through this thread, so I may be repeating stuff already sorted.

When the machine can’t compute something I’d rather it state: “repeat” and “can’t compute” instead of the rather annoying “I’m sorry… etc”, it would certainly speed things up. Is there no way of customising responses?

I don’t know if others have the same trouble with toggling data, wifi, bluetooth, airplane mode - no problem commanding it to turn things off, but it never understands commands to turn things back on.

Lastly, is there a command to unmount external storage? I looked though Settings in Launch Activity and couldn’t find it.
[Android Apps and Games] darthbuh:
Just created a XDA profile to get into this thread.

I've been loving Utter! for some time now; Dragon Assistant is better at natural speech, but has that godawful interface. Utter! stays on and out of the way, while retaining functionality.

This last version has been giving me a bit of trouble with nicknames - they just don't recognize. Additionally, any previous version I've ever used has never responded on permanent recognition to anything beyond "Wake up", no matter how many times I try a custom phrase. I use it in my car through the Bluetooth audio system, and having the hands-free would be easier than manually activating every time with a key press.

Oh, speaking of hands-free! I've also had trouble activating Utter! in the Accessibility options. On my previous Android (4.0) I didn't have this issue. Now, I get "TTS Language - System Language is different from TTS language. This might cause unexpected behavior. Go to TTS output settings and change the language." And that's it, just a lockout behind that. I'm using the IVONA Nicole eng-aus voice.

Any ideas?
[Android Apps and Games] markworksfx:
To get the accessibility working change the text to speech back to what ever you had before ivona then turn on talkback for utter then switch back to ivona I had the same problem I use william by cerproc

Thanks. I'll head down that route. I do have beginner turned off, but didn't realize there was a preferences to choose after holding down on the profile name. I expected it to be another item to choose, as if adding more states or something to the profile.

That's interesting, because I've clicked on several of Brandall's links to 3.10, which take me to the PLay store. I think he even says it's there. And, just checking the play store, it says updated on June 6, and that it's version 3.1.0B. And as of my posting asking about it yesterday, I am on 3.09, and the PLay store shows me current. I remain confused. (Doesn't take much, I guess :p ).
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
THANKS

Hi folks, just checking in! It's been busy on here!

The update to the app seems to be as solid as I'd hoped - there's only 4 crashes reported so far, of which just one is down to some dodgy code of mine :o The others are weird and wonderful ones that appear to be device or Custom ROM related.

So, I wanted to thank you all again for your testing skills. I couldn't have done this without you all :good:

I've got to keep my head down for the next couple of days, getting the bug fix release ready and then I'll be back to see what you all think the next version needs to include or be better at (headset support I hear you all cry!)

Forgive me for not answering your posts now - I will digest them all over a coffee over the coming days, so they are not wasted effort on your behalf.

Right, I need to remove all of the fast food containers from around my laptop and open the curtains......... I hope the sunlight doesn't make my eyes bleed... :eek:

Take it easy all :highfive:

I just started to use it and it seems amazing.. There are a couple of things to make it perfect for me ... First if i set italian or any other language as native i would like that utter reads my messages in italian.. Second the spotify integration does not play music but only search in spotify app... :) great work anyway :)
[Android Apps and Games] korrectmethod:
Amazing app. I'm only missing the off-line feature. I just assume it hasn't been implemented yet, otherwise great. Tried changing to ivona, it lagged as the app warned, and when i switched back to pico, i got "audio recording error". Clearing cache in recovery, reinstalling google search, google voice, and utter fixed the problem.
[Android Apps and Games] superlisworks:
Hi,

first thanks for the apps, it's great.

I have a little trouble following the documentation "Using utter! in your own language".

It's written :

"Firstly, in the main application, click on ‘Custom Launcher Shortcut’ You will be presented with a list of the recognition languages available via Google Voice Search – select yours.

You will then be given the option to select the language of the voice engine. If you have a custom introduction in your own language, then select the same language for the voice engine. If you would prefer the introductions remained in English, select the English locale of your voice engine.

An icon will be placed on your home-screen * with a reference to the language selected as the name **. When pressed, the recognition will start in your native language. "

I don't have ‘Custom Launcher Shortcut’ button, I have only "Customisation" or "launcher Shortcut" like in the following screenshot :

How should I do to choose my language please?

Regards,

Lionel

Finding the custom launcer

To get to the Custom Shortcut Launcher, got into utter/settings then swipe to the left to get to the Advanced settings and its there in the list, and follow the instructions... Hope that helps

Hey Ben.

Hope your getting a ton of good reviews at the Play Store.

I few days ago, I finally got my custom machined aluminum car cradle wired up. It was always mounted in the car...but for months, I hadn't got around to wiring the power and audio. It's so nice now. I used to have a similar setup previously.

Anyway, on route, I second guessed where I was headed, and at the last minute, I did a screen gesture to wake Utter (via Gesture Navigation) and Utter asked me how she could help. I said, Navigate to Boundary and Marine. She understood, Launched Nav right away, I got a GPS lock pretty quickly and sure enough, I could see within Nav, that I was within a big block of where I thought I was headed. Nearly all of it was executed hands free and the only hands on is the swipe which doesn't need to be precise. That was a gratifying moment. Then I resumed my loud music. :good:

So I did some testing with Utter to duck audio when PowerAmp was playing. It was hit and miss. And like I reported recently, sometimes the music prematurely returns only when Utter is waiting for my actual command but not when she's talking. I wonder if it should be a matter of PAUSING PowerAmp during this process rather than ducking...and then resuming play afterwards? Well anyhow, I thought I would let you know that there is much potential, and that audio ducking is at the top of my humble wish list as far as "ease of operation and experience" goes.

Utter! and Text Messaging App

When I respond with 'Yes' to the question if I want to proof read my text reply, Utter! opens my text app, however, the message is blank. I'm using the default Text Messaging app.

My Phone:

Moto Droid RAZR M

Stock ROM, rooted

4.1.2 / 98.30.1.XT907

---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:21 PM ----------

I see Tasker can push variables to Utter!, and I have imported the SMS Project, however, how do I initiate Utter! to reply to a text? Once I send %SMSRN to Utter!, how do I create a Custom command to start the text message process to send text to that variable?
[Android Apps and Games] reluttr:
This application has been a major lifesaver when it comes to using a bluetooth headset on a device when the screen is off. *seriously WTF google, you dropped the ball on this one."

However I have a problem, when I press the command button on my headset Utter! will ask me what I want, there there is a delay as gps is turned on briefly, then it starts listening.

Is there a way to bypass this delay? It can really make using Utter difficult at times as the delay can be quite varied depending on how long it takes the GPS to lock. At the very least is it possible to make a indication chime play when utter is actually listening?

Also does anyone know how to hide the notification on CM 10.2.1 "android 4.3.1"? Because between Utter and Pebble my notification shade is getting to full. XD
[Android Apps and Games] mpd81:
Driving mode

The tasker plugin auto location will detect when you are driving and you can set the options that you want from there, there is also a tasker profile that brandall has made I think it's in his signature that includes smsinteractiveu that will give you the option to reply to text messages, the only thing to add is if you are using it with permanent recognition you need to add a task to turn off recognition when you get an sms then back on 10 seconds later otherwise you will get an error
[Android Apps and Games] Artimis:
I've started using the app more recently and love it.

With respect to some of the bluetooth issues/behaviors mentioned, I've been testing this using my LG tone+ headphones as well as my BT-to-FM car adapter and have noticed the following behavior.

When "Auto Connect Headset" is enabled under Settings -> Power User:

Working well:

- Audio prompt can be heard (e.g. "What can I do for you?") through the headset

- Bluetooth microphone is used for input.

Not working well:

- Audio is very low quality.

- Audio can be very choppy especially on initial prompt (e.g."What can I do for you?").

When "Auto Connect Headset" is disabled under Settings -> Power User:

Working well:

- Audio is much higher quality.

Not working well:

- Bluetooth mic is not used for input. It uses the phone's mic instead

- There is no audio prompt or beep heard when trying to say a command. Makes it difficult to know if it is even listening.
[Android Apps and Games] ewingr:
Just in case anyone is wondering about the issue I've been experiencing of my version being 3.09B, but the Play store not updating me to 3.10B:

I think that the fact I had installed 3.09B by downloading from here instead of the PLay store, it made updates via PLay not work. I had to uninstall, then reinstall from the Play store and reconfigure it all.

I would have downloaded 3.1 and installed that way had it been available that way when I saw it out.

At any rate, I"m up on 3.10B now.
[Android Apps and Games] Locheed:
Well I have my phone connected to Volvos Bluetooth system and it still doesn't work well even if auto connect to Headset is ON. There is no speak from cars speakers or from phone itself, unless there is a active phonecall going. Also bluetooth mic doesn't transmit commands and there is no audio or beeps when Utter is listening.
[Android Apps and Games] aryayush:
I told you, you did not need to do that. Version 3.0.9B is the same as 3.1. The Play Store would have updated you to it if there was anything to update. The app binaries are exactly the same, so it did not bother. You lose all your settings, custom commands and replacement words if you uninstall the app. In future, feel free to download betas from here and don’t worry too much about the Play Store updates. :)

Bug report: If I create a nickname for someone that is just the first name (for example, “ankush” for Ankush Arya) and then say “text ankush arya i will meet you at the office period”, it composes the message thusly: “Arya I will meet you at the office.” It should be intelligent enough to omit the last name here.

Feature request: Furthermore, if you could build in some AI to make calling better, that would be awesome. It should default to dialing mobile numbers without asking for confirmation when there are multiple numbers, and it should give preference to your more frequently dialed contacts in the past week when you specify just the first name and multiple people share it. That would eliminate the need to create nicknames for the most part.

Example: Say I have three contacts as follows:

Ankush Arya (Mobile, Mobile, Home, Work)

Ankush Mittal (Mobile)

Ankush Garg (Mobile, Mobile, Work)

Let’s assume that I’ve dialed Ankush Arya eleven times in the past week and the others once each. If I tell Utter to “call ankush”, it should just call Ankush Arya on the mobile number we last spoke on. If I want to dial Ankush Garg’s work number, I can of course say “call ankush garg work”.

You may offer the argument, “but what if you said “call ankush” and wanted it to call Ankush Garg?” It’s easy enough, I can just hang up and say the fuller command. Being inconvenienced this way every once in a while is much better, IMHO, than always having to specify the full name and device for your frequently dialed contacts.

Most keypad dialers on the Play Store already do this. They prioritise mobile numbers and have the option to place more frequently called numbers towards the top of search results. I’m asking for pretty much the same behaviour from Utter. Every time Utter stops to ask me something, it makes it slower and more prone to error than using traditional methods of achieving that task, and that erodes your trust in it.

Let me know what you think. (And I hope the bug reports and feature requests I make here are being logged somewhere. I expect that it’ll take time for you to cover them all, and that you’ll disagree with me on certain ideas, but I don’t want all the time spent doing this to go to waste.)
[Android Apps and Games] ewingr:
Well, sorry. I never understood from your response was that they were the same, but Idid understand that I was on 3.09B, and that the Play store version indicated it was 3.10B, It seems to me that If they were the same, then the About Version should be the same.

At any rate, I'm up to date for sure.

I appreciate your feedback.

Regarding downloading betas from here, I tried to do that. I couldn't find a link. All links I clicked took me to the Play store. I didn't try to OP...maybe they are there now. My past experience has been that latest betas had to be found in the thread, not the OP.
[Android Apps and Games] CZ Eddie:
I use TB to back up my Utter apk.

But I also use Root Explorer to copy the Utter folder from my internal-SD to my external-SD, so I can copy it back to the internal after flashing a new ROM.

Between one or the other of those two actions, the only thing I have to do to Utter after reflashing, is just enable Root. Everything else stays exactly as it was.

[Android Apps and Games] HunnyBearLewis:
I don't like the sound of that. What if you call Ankush Arya eleven times in the past week but your most recent call is to Ankush Mittal and then you say "call Ankush"? I would rather it call back the most recent instance of Ankush, assuming there was no nickname for Ankush.

However, as it is, if Ankush Garg is assigned the nickname "Ankush" and you call Ankush Arya many times in the past week, who should it call when you say "Call Ankush"? It should call Ankush Garg of course.

Hmm, what if someone uses Utter because they are busy and always on the move - they might just miss the fact it is calling the wrong Ankush. Hanging up doesn't seem to be the most efficient way. I don't think people mind sparing the extra second to add "Garg work".

About the Clipboard

Hello and tanks for the latest version it’s well done

I have a question what’s the meaning of toast the clipboard?

Is toast = delete if yes when I said toast the clipboard utter respond "here you go" and it flash on the screen its content but after when I said navigate to the clipboard utter show me it’s content I like to empty the clipboard how can I do that.

Also when we ask to navigate it open its content as a destination very useful command. But if I would like just to open the clipboard to view it’s content not as a destination how can I do that? if it’s possible and if not It will be nice to be able to do that. Maybe I ask to much I am a nood in android and only work a little with tasker task most of it from your xda page witch is great by the way. learning!!!!
