Guys i downloaded the signed APK for this app. and it works without editing the build.prop,

however its rubbish compared to original mates s3 app.

ME: How much wood could a woodchuck cut if a woodchuck could cut wood.

S-VOICE : Im sorry i dont know what you mean by How much wood could a woodchuck cut if a woodchuck could cut wood..

My friends S-VOICE says somthing like , "tht depends how fast the woodchuck is" or something similar.

why am i seeing 2 differenrt answers?

thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] stevenkhan168:
In short, just install the APK file as normal to get S Voice? :confused:

S Voice FC

Seems to always FC when it's told to "Play Music" or any other commands that involved the Music Player.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] s0ulcraft:
seems for me that the app is kind of buggy
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jonstrong:
My impression is that the app itself isn't necessarily buggy...my guess is that it is hard coded to invoke various specific helper apps and libraries, and when they are not found it simply fails. It was not designed as a "portable"app, but as a component in a system with a variety of inter dependencies. Nice that we can try out some of its capabilities, but until we can configure it to invoke our preferred apps, e.g., memo, gmail, Google calendar, whatever when we speak an instruction, it will not be fully portable.

Did this to my sgh-I747 and didn't boot back. Had to pull the build.prop from adb and modify it again. Any ideas about what to do?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abner_hagelsieb:
Ill tell you how to correct this, after editing your build.prop and BEFORE rebooting your phone:

1.- Long press the buil.prop file, then a menu should come up

2.- Look for proprieties

3.- Click on it

4.- un check so it looks like in the photos below

5.- click ok.

that's it

no need for ADB on SDK manager

Go to settings, language and input, text to speech output, and when selecting an engine it will prompt you to download one from the play store.

It seems I had to reset the Voice Recognizer to "Samsung powered by Vlingo" and that did the trick.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Upstreammiami:
I'm in Miami says I'm in pennsuco fl I have boo idea where that is
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] wolfspirit68:
WOW, that is a good distance. Even if the location services worked from the cell towers it should still give you a closer location. Perhaps a re-install?? Sometimes it helps to reset the app. YMMV
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Upstreammiami:
I just Google it it's as place 5 min from my house but I don't thinks that area is called that lol w.e

You got me on that one. It must have geo located you quite close or your just on the egde of the 2 locations. Not entirely sure.

Edited build.prop, reboot, worked for a second then FC.

Tried the US model number SCH-I535, said weather, and it returned a good result before FC.

SGH-T999 gave an FC before the result showed.

So its working, but still has a problem.

Network Error

I have modified build.prop file but still getting the same 'network error. please try again' message', even after restarting the phone. I tried reinstalling the app, checked build.prop once again, all looking good, however still 'network error'.

Galaxy S2 rooted with WanamLite 11.6 ROM.

Edit: Works in 3g mode, not on Wifi. Anyone managed to get it working on Wifi?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] krichek:
Yes. I ran to 7-11 and made a purchase. Worked the same as before.

Go into settings, choose Language & Input, scroll down to text to speech output, select google text to speech, now press listen to an example, wait for the voice to finish and your voice prompts should work again.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subvertz:
Okay, reinstalled .apk after the build.prop and its working on H+. Will try wifi later tonight.

SGS2 International (GT-I9100)

Thanks for doing this! Don't know if I can be helped...

I still get the "network error" message after duly changing "build.prop".

I also reinstalled the apk, to no success.

I notice that in /system, a 'build.prop.bak' has appeared? Just beneath the 'build.prop' that I edited. The 'build.prop.bak' contains the original 'build.prop' data. Its as if my SGS2 is ignoring the edited 'build.prop' and is now using the 'build.prop.bak', I presume (I am no expert).

Also, before I edited 'build.prop.bak', in ro.product.name it said "=GT-I9100", instead of 'yakju' or something other incomprehensible wording, following from the example on your first post. Also, it already had "=GT-I9100" in all the correct fields, except for ro.product.device, where it initally had "=galaxys2" (I tested the app under this condition, to no avail), I changed it to "=GT-I9100" as well, but also no luck.

Just though I would let you know. Did you have success in your SGS2?

Still getting 'network error' when trying to use it on wifi, though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] 2.0t03speed:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] colemanjj616:
Long press build prop and the option will pop up.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pHaez:
I was able to modify the apk in order to send the "GT-I9300" string, so that I didn't have to modify my build.prop. Those that don't wish to modify build.prop, or can't (because you aren't rooted) can give it a try and see if it does the trick for you.

http://www.mediafire.com/?fp04n29phdzeram

Of course, thanks to the OP, as I wouldn't have known what to modify without the information about the build.prop changes.

For the purpose of disclosure on what was modified, and for those that wish to make the changes manually, you can use apktool to decode the apk, then edit smali/com/vlingo/sdk/internal/deviceinfo/PhoneInfo.smali and modify:

"method public getModel()" and "method public getDeviceID()". Right before the return at the bottom of each function, put: const-string v1, "GT-I9300" (replace v1 with the value the return uses, v0 for getModel, v1 for getDeviceID.

Changing build to GT-I9300 fixed S-Voice on my Galaxy Nexus, but it broke Google Wallet. Would have been a different story if I were a Google employee... Going to modify my build.prop again with a US model number and see if that does the trick.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsz3us:
Once you have changed your build.prop and restarted the phone. Open file explorer and navigate back to the apk and re-install it again by clicking on install.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] pats4life100:
Tried still reboot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tehnick:
Changed build.prop to be SCH-I535 and S-Voice still works but Wallet is still busted. Swapping between the backup files with a reboot after each swap will be the only work around by the looks of it for now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jsz3us:
Derr, I though that was the way to go but didnt want to risk it. Thanks for the help.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Denton.S:
Well the fix works very nicely, can't comment on wether the wallet still works as I never use it. But S voice is working again,but I still don't think I'll ever use it, just nice to show off though really.

Working on GSM GN

Thanks for this!!!

I just installed this on my rooted, unlocked, but otherwise stock GSM Galaxy Nexus, and it works pretty good. Has some issues opening apps, couldn't open any of my weather apps, or Plume which I use for Twitter, but Facebook opened. No force closes or network errors and voice recognition seems good. Since build.prop is not changed, I'll expect Google Wallet to work, but we'll see.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ellite:
With the new APK, with no changes to my build.prop, everything is working on s voice :)

Thank you very much.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gadget_uk:
You need to change the permissions on your build.prop file. You can find various instructions on these forums for your device but you'll need to connect via usb and issue the "adb shell chmod 644 /system/build.prop" from your PC command line.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lancec50:
To install the new apk does it need to be done the same way as before. Moving it to /system/app then changing permissions then reboot then clicking install from root explorer?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] BusyPooping:
Subscribing.... I also keep getting force closes.

But I can see from my sig the build prop edit worked.

Hello, anyone could build apk, with modifications?

I m not root, and I would like just install apk, like the other one...

Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gadget_uk:
When you edited your build.prop file it changed the file permissions from the default so it's stuck in a boot-loop. To fix it, you need to install the Android SDK including the "platform-tools" which will give you a handy command-line app called adb.exe. Once you have that you can connect your phone to your pc via a usb cable and send instructions to it.

To reset the file permissions to default you need to issue this from your command prompt/shell/terminal/whatever:-

adb shell chmod 644 /system/build.prop

I work for a living so I can't go into more detail than that - xda is full of instructions though.

Hi everyone!

Rooted, GNex, VZW, BAMF 1.25 Paradigm.

Was not expecting it to work fully and running into an error or two. First when I say Play (insert artist) I get a FC.

More importantly, lol, when I say "update Facebook" it shows "you must log in.." and opens a log in screen but then gives me a user name and password error and loads right back to the app so I can't even fix it.

Any ideas?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] hitandrun972:
it works for me

i installed this on my Galaxy S2 skyrocket and it works just fine. Though you would have to change the build.prop to GT-I9300 if you don't want to get that network connection error.

one thing though it didn't work right away for me, so I uninstalled the app, rebooted, then re-install and now it works fine.

it's not perfect though because i still get force closes sometimes, especially when try to add an alarm.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ls1norcal:
I got it to work by fixing build.prop, however it wont actually save anything I tell it to do. For instance "remind me to take out the trash tomorrow". It understands what I want, it asks if it wants me to save, then says "sorry, I cannot save it". Same thing happens when setting up alarms.
