You are correct as expected. I MASSIVELY forgot to mention (and code) that the query agenda command is only for Android 4.1+

Only 8% of utter! users are running less than Jelly Bean and that, of course, is decreasing by the minute. Prior to your helpfulness, I had planned to only code for API 16+ going forward.

Those figures actually surprise me, as I thought that utter! would mainly appeal to those that can't access Google Now? But it's good to know that the app offers features that appeal beyond the conventional - perhaps demonstrated here by a Google employee who gave utter! a cameo! Anyway, I'm in no way disillusioned that Google aren't going to kick my ass if I don't keep pushing boundaries <-- Something they can't, whilst their products demand perfection of every implementation.

I fear I'm waffling..... So, I'll have a look at what I can do for < JB

Problem - 8% of users = 70%+ of bug reports.............. :clipboard:

Important

You bug report was superb. I'd written a post about how to get one, but your format was way better. How did you do it?

[MENTION=984710]brandall[/MENTION]

I just noticed the bottom portion of your last reply.

Was that directed towards me?

Lets assume yes.

It was pretty much as I explained above.

- I first launched the app named "CatLog" and cleared it's log while it started to write new entries.

- I immediately swiped 3 fingers down while CatLog was open and running.

- The module named "Gesture Navigation" triggered Utter to ask me what I wanted.

- I spoke the "Am I busy tomorrow" command and waited for Utter to show the error popup.

- I closed the popup error, paused Catlog, and clicked MENU and chose to send as attachment. (zip)

- sent it to my email and I attached it to the XDA post via my PC.

First, it is nice to see this mighty app being updated by it's mighty developer again! :good:

I have a suggestion, which I used very often: an in-built command for going to sleep and waking the phone (tasker deactivates my lockscreen while at home). I suspect that it is not easy to implement a "go to sleep" command which works on every phone, but i still wanted to make the suggestion.
[Android Apps and Games] Tinasintunes:
Dunno if this will help but I use tasker and secure settings to create a task to lock phone then i create a command for utter to use that task to put my phone to sleep (lock it).
[Android Apps and Games] keen36:
thanks, but i already had this working; i use a slim settings shortcut (slim settings is included in my rom) to send the phone to sleep, and wake it with secure settings screen on for 1 second. i just thought it would be nice to have that included into utter as a standard command, and brandall asked for suggestions, so i mentioned it.
[Android Apps and Games] kaliakman:
I would love to say Wake me up *ANY GIVEN TIME*(I would like some variety like. In x minutes, at xx:xx am/pm)

[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks - I'll check it out.

Thanks :good: That is on my list to do somewhere, at some point....

:good: I'll see if I can adapt the alarm feature to this.

I've got a release coming in a few hours - I've coded the new agenda feature to work from gingerbread upwards. It's actually pretty fast.

Back soon!

Hey, sorry to report, not working. same symptoms as last version.

I rebooted after installing.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks for letting me know - Any chance of a log please so I can double check it's the same crash?

Thanks in advance :good:
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
I couldn't replicate this after I'd applied some other bug fixes, so hoping I solved it accidentally. Does it still occur for you on the latest version above ^ ?

Thanks in advance
[Android Apps and Games] themadproducer:
@brandall

Absolutely.

Here it is.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thank you :good: I see the problem - Sending ICS to the Gingerbread code! Oops... Will post a fix tomorrow as knackered now....

Thanks again for your testing skills!
[Android Apps and Games] BobD1605:
Yes, afraid so. What I perhaps should have mentioned before (sorry, but I didn't remember that this was the case) is that the Holiday all day event is a yearly reoccurring event.

Thanks for adding "What am I doing on...?", it now works a treat.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Pleasure :good:

Sorry to be a pain, but could you possibly post the details of the event? I know some calendars, even if you tick all day, they still allow a start time?! So, just want to check the title and from/to dates etc etc please. On email via the app is fine if it's private - or not at all if it's too private!!

[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
V3.0.9.1.4 UP!

BIG thanks to [MENTION=1989457]themadproducer[/MENTION] for catching the ICS crash. Should be fixed now for ICS and Honeycomb

Have fun! :good:
[Android Apps and Games] themadproducer:
[MENTION=984710]brandall[/MENTION]

YES...confirming the fix works! "Am I busy tomorrow" no longer crashes. :good:

Issues...

1) Just like [MENTION=537847]BobD1605[/MENTION], I have 2 all day events and I get the exact problem he described.

2) If I say, "Am I busy tomorrow?" and today is Saturday, it gives me the events for Monday with the 2nd event time cut off as explained above.

3) If I say, "What am I doing Sunday?", again, it gives me the Monday events.

Let me know if you need logs. ;)
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks for reporting back :good:

1) If it force closes, a log would be great please!

2/3) I think I've messed up initialising the calendar with the device Locale somewhere..... Eyelids are too heavy now, so will investigate tomorrow (Monday for you :D )

Thanks again for your support
[Android Apps and Games] themadproducer:
@brandall

yes, get some zzzzz's.

#1 above....does not force close. Here are the details...

- Utter Replies..."you have 2 events"

- "first" + "Going Fishing", + "which is an all day event"

- "followed by" + "beating up the wife" "which starts at" then Utter stops. (not a f/c)

So I am just missing the 2nd even start time which should be an ALL DAY event as well.

I did some tests with bizarre results!

- If I have 3 all day events, then all 3 get read correctly as expected.

- If I remove 1 of them, then the 2nd of the remaining 2 does not get a time confirmation.

- If I have 2 events, 1st event is all day and 2nd event has a specific start time and end time, then they both get read correctly.

Unfortunately...they are still perceived as Monday's dates instead of Sunday.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Fantastic :good: That nailed it! :good: There's a gap in my responses if the first two (and only two) events are all day..... Good work! :cool:

Ivona Voice on Utter!

Hi first time posting in the thread....

We have just added one of the Ivona voices onto our Samsung SIII as a test with there Ivona HQ beta and we have found that the response time is no differant to the Samsung or Google TTS, so they may have cleared up the issue with the 10 sec response that was noted by Ben last year...

Chrs hope this helps

Super User Permission Indicator

While most of the little (tick/cross) icons to indicate setting status work, the one for Super User Permissions doesn't for me. (I've requested it and was successful, but still see a cross).
[Android Apps and Games] BobD1605:
:laugh:

The two events are:

May 3rd,.Meeting Invitation, Repeat: Yearly, Title "X and Y birthday 08", From Sat 03/05/2014, To Sat 03/05/2014, All Day, One Attendee (me!). No start/end times displayed on Android. Show me as Available.

(This is the one I listed as Holiday originally, to further obscure personal details)

May 4th, Meeting Invitation, Title "Lunch with Susan?", From Sun 04/05/2014 08:00, To Sun 04/05/2014 09:00, One Attendee (me!). Show me as Busy.

These are in my work Outlook calendar, synchronized to my Android device via my corporate email account. I can get you any additional details from my Outlook calendar itself if that would help. Let me know if you need any more info (I can't imagine the actual text for X and Y is important, but if you think so then I can email that to you)
[Android Apps and Games] Echo113:
Is there a way to have utter turn off or shut down after using it?? Like a command or something? I'd prefer to only have it run when ever I press the button and shut down once I'm done.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks for your feedback. IVONA has greatly improved, it's now Google's HQ voices that are the problem! Up to 7 seconds on some of my older test devices :crying:

Thanks for letting me know - :good: Testing if a device has rooted access, or was granted it, is a little tricky.... It's on my list to handle better!

That's perfect, thank you! :good: Solved and fixed for the next release :highfive:

You can say 'shutdown' <--- BUT, a design fundamental from outset was to make sure utter! used virtually no battery when it wasn't resolving a command. You could leave it active for 24 hours and it will use less than 1% of you battery, if it even shows up under your battery usage at all......... So, you really don't need to do this. Toggling it off and on would probably use more! A little like turning off your car every time you stop at a junction :cowboy:

Multiple entries of the same contact

I love Utter. What a great app with a sense of humour.

One problem is basic enough. I have contacts from multiple Gmail accounts on my device, including multiple entries of the same person including some versions automatically put there by Gmail.

Problem is that utter opens the first entry it finds even if it does not have a phone number in the entry. Therefore utter cannot make a call because it does not find a phone number even though one exists on the phone.

When I do the same with Google voice it ignores contact entries without phone numbers and works fine.

What I am doing wrong?
[Android Apps and Games] Echo113:
Ok great. How do I replay to an incoming text after it reads it to me?
[Android Apps and Games] nakulp:
A little bit offtopic but wanted to say that just now I watched the movie 'The Machine' & was just thinking to myself how cool it would be to get that level of advanced conversation ability or atleast even natural language query in the near future. The rest of the Siri wannabes in the appstore dont even come close to utter at this moment. Awesome work really with this app!
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Thanks for reporting this :good: I think I do need to improve the logic here and check if any identical contacts have a number first. In the mean time, all I can suggest would be creating custom commands for the contacts you use most frequently. You can link a word or phrase directly to a number then and select the correct contact during the process.

It can't at the moment, but it's high on my list of things to do.

Thanks :good: I actually watched it the other night, it was pretty good. I've a plan for the conversational abilities - coming soon!

[Android Apps and Games] BobD1605:
Great. :highfive: Looking forward to it. Just been playing with the "What am I doing on..." command that you added and found something strange. Or possibly not, but I thought it strange. If I ask "What am I doing on... " when I have no data connection then utter! does not recognise the command. With a data connection it works fine. "What is my agenda on..." works with or without a data connection. Is that to be expected?
[Android Apps and Games] //.dax:
Such a great app!

How about new visual feedback while permanent recognition? Like Voice Dialing dots at bottom of screen (if you know what I mean) , dimmed screen and maybe (if it's possible) automatic visual results like Google Now have..

hey brandall >>>when are u going to solve ( the wake up phrase problem ) man it makes me sad plzz fix it >i have waiting for almost a year to solve this
[Android Apps and Games] Lord AJ:
Hi , I got another suggestion for the app. I think it would be great to include a faceless image or maybe the android logo in the UI which could be shown when we're interacting with the app to give it a feel of talking to an actual person. Hope you'll like this one and include it in tye next release.
[Android Apps and Games] markworksfx:
I personally don't like that idea we don't need an faceless image that would mean we be stuck in an interface utter should be use anywhere on your phone in any app just my opinion

I'm new to utter and I like that wakeup command alot but beep sound disturbing alot so how to stop it and if I use wakeup command for whole day how much battery it takes? Please help me thanks.
[Android Apps and Games] Lord AJ:
The app's great this way too. But I think that having such an image could be of help to people who feel the same way I do. So perhaps u could add an option in the app to allow the user to choose if he wants to see that image when talking to the app with the ui open in the foreground.
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
Hi folks, had my head down on the next release - just checking in for a few quick replies:

I think this is a recognition issue - If you enable visual results, you'll probably see that 'What am I doing on...' isn't recognised correctly by the offline engine?

Thanks :good: The permanent recognition would pick up ambient noise almost constantly, so the visual interpretation of this would just add to the battery's demise...

Visual results are coming, but it's very hard for me to code the implementation I want.

So if you go to your Android Application Settings, find utter! and clear defaults, utter! still grabs the headset press?

This should prompt you with all of the available options? There is an app, headset controller on the Play Store that folks have used to better control behaviour.

I'm not sure which one you mean!?! Can you remind me please?

Until there's something breathtaking that could be used as an 'avatar' for use within the app, it's not something I'm going to attempt to do I'm afraid.

A fundamental of the app is that it's a non-intrusive, always there entity.

If you're running the latest test build - http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52220836&postcount=6154 and still hearing the beeps, you might need to reboot to clear any sound issues.

It will absolutely murder your battery. There's no way for apps to use a dedicated core, as Google Now does.

-----------------------

Thanks for all of your feedback folks! Appreciated. :good: Hoping to get another test build out within 12 hours.

Cheers

[Android Apps and Games] BobD1605:
Yes, that seems to be the case. Online it correctly recognises the phrase. Offline it seems to think I said "What's my doing on...". I've added a Replacement Phrase to map from one to the other and it is now working fine. Thanks for the tip. Love how easy it was to fix it!
[Android Apps and Games] ahmedali09:
the wake up pharse problem is

the wake up phrase problem :- is when you go to settings and tick the wake up phrase option the phone starts to make sound every 5 seconds and this voice stops the music that iam listening to
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
:good: Glad you sorted it! I get so many emails from users who don't get the replace words feature, so glad you put it to good use!

Firstly, just checking your are running the latest test version http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=52220836&postcount=6154 and also the latest version of Google Search?

You shouldn't hear the beep anymore - If you do, could you reboot please and confirm?

There is nothing I can do about the music stuttering I'm afraid..... :crying: It's the Google Search app 'ducking' the audio every time the recognition restarts. Well, I can do something = not use Google! But I'm not ready to throw that out to testing - I don't have time to get it working well.

Maybe next year! :rolleyes:

Need some sleep, so next test version will be tomorrow now......

Any ideas why when I select to go through the voice tutorial. It doesn't work and a popup says "text to speech initialisation failed"?
[Android Apps and Games] N0he:
When permanent recognition is enabled, there is a very silent and barely noticeable sound coming from my device. The sound is similar to the sound of a small electric arc or when you connect/disconnect speakers, and its not affected by sound settings. I guess its the mic getting turned on and off or something? The same sound appears when I use OpenMic or when Google Now is waiting for my voice command, but the "Ok Google" command for Google Now works without that sound appearing. It does not seem to be a device specific problem either, as it appears on all three devices I tried out (Sony Xperia M, B&N Nook HD+, Cubot X6). Just want to ask if you could tell me what it is, as I fear it could be unhealthy for my device? Thank you!

Not trying to beat a dead horse Ben. Should this be interpreted that the issue with bluetooth and not hearing intros or volume getting cutoff over bluetooth is something that simply can't be fixed or improved on due to google?

In spanish we don't said minutes to offten always 12:59 am. , 1:10, 4:35
[Android Apps and Games] brandall:
I bet that's how you always ask people for the time :D

It's actually the reason I didn't finish the logic as I needed to ponder over it further. Consider:

What's the time?

What time is it?

Tell me the time.

The above have no common factor other than the single word 'time'.... So other than listing every request a user could make to request the current time, I'm a little stumped as to what to do... Any suggestions would be welcome!

I think I'm going to have to make it a sub command of Android System, otherwise it will be detected singularly all too often...

So if we are in a conversation with utter, like:

Utter: Do you need more information on this?

Will utter (the final build) think that we are asking for the time?

[Android Apps and Games] djgdroid:
I've got an HTC Droid Incredible, rooted and running a gingerbread 2.3.4 'inc plus' ROM. As posted above, I can scroll thru the tabs but they are squished together and the images are not transparent.

The time tab works perfectly.
[Android Apps and Games] CTR01:
maybe we could just say:

- 'time' and have utter give us the time

- 'set time' and have utter open clock/alarm app...?

just some simple (obvious) thoughts...
[Android Apps and Games] cgordonfreeman:
Why would you not just reply " no thanks " Instead of "not at this time"? Seems a lot simpler to me, it would also limit potential errors if your response is a definite one instead of a vague one.

Just my opinion.
[Android Apps and Games] RoboJoe:
Have it trigger on "what time" or "the time".
[Android Apps and Games] robbo89:
Problem with that is if you're asking about an event such as "what time is my meeting today?" It would give you a scare when utter tells you that you should be in your meeting right now!
[Android Apps and Games] 99problemz:
IMO we can all see the time on our phones or tablets from the lock screen or the notification bar. So would asking utter what time it is only be relevant if we are wanting to know the time in a different state/city/country? Then you can just use a simple command: utter "what is the current time in New York."
[Android Apps and Games] RoboJoe:
Good point! I don't know how commands are being parsed, but it seems reasonable that the "what time" trigger could at least get you to a specific logic tree to figure out what the user is wanting.

If there is an eventual BT trigger, I can see myself activating Utter! from my BT headset and asking it for the time.
[Android Apps and Games] 99problemz:
I do see the convenience in that. Good point. But in the event Brandall could implement that in the app you would have to keep the phone awake in order to use utter thus causing battery drain if I'm not mistaken.
[Android Apps and Games] freak4dell:
Yeah, I didn't really see a point in asking utter! the time, either, but I didn't want to bring it up. Honestly, I kinda thought that when people talked about time, they meant setting the alarm and such.
