[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
It's as good as I like it now

If you set the voice detection language specifically to "English (US)" instead of "Auto", the hotword detection in Google Voice Search will work. So after waking the phone you can ask as many questions as you want, just say "OK, Google" between them. If the phone goes to sleep, you still have to say the loathed "Hi Galaxy".

This makes the above discussed tricks (to quickly send the phone to standby) unnecessary. BTW you can have any other languages selected together with "English US", and the hotword will still work.

Profile "SVoice"

Context:

State Application "S Voice"​

Task:

Load App "Voice Search"​

There is one more trick I used in tasker: it's possible to make the running app detection more sensitive by decreasing the "application check (ms)" value in preferences. Having a pretty low value for this detection time (100ms) virtually makes the switch instantaneous from svoice to voicesearch (more often than not you won't even see svoice!).

But to overcome the battery hit of such a setting, I recommend one more trick:

I use a "display off" triggered task to set the high sensitivity application check, and a "display unlocked" triggered task to set it to a much cruder check after waiting a few seconds:

Profile "Display Off"

Context:

Display Off​

Task:

Set Tasker Pref "Application Check (ms)" 100​

Profile "Unlock"

Context:

Display Unlocked​

Task:

Wait 2 sec

Set Tasker Pref "Application Check (ms)" 3000​

This setup also works well with the wired headset, and even with the bluetooth headset, but there I need to double click the Play/Pause button to get SVoice then Voice Search to start.

I consider this to be an almost perfect workaround, although a way to change the cheesy "Hi Galaxy" command and to eliminate loading the behemoth (completely useless) Samsung S-Voice app would still be nice.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgutt:
Works like a charm.

How to select multiple languages? I'm able to download multiple languages, but I'm not able to select a second one?! I've downloaded German, but Google Voice does not understand me if I'm talking German ("English US" is selected).

The default value of Llama is 1.000 ms. Most of the time it works (Should be a random thing because it is possible that you hit one ms after the last interval checked, but the sound comes only in very rare cases).
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
Well, I meant you can select multiple languages for voice input in the Android system (under Controls / Language and Input / Google Voice typing / Cog / Choose input laguages). Unfortunatelly this does not let you choose for voice search (any more - used to in Android 2.3 and below :(

For this I found a somewhat less elegant solution: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gmail.anolivetree.voicesearch&hl=en

Here I configured only my secondary language (Hungarian) and if I need to search in Hungarian, I start this app. 99% of the time I need English anyway.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgutt:
Strange. I found a screenshot with "Choose input languages", but in my case there is only "Language". No multiple selection possible (simple dropdown).
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
No, not in Voice Search Settings,,, I am talking about the voice recognition settings in the settings app / controls section! See my previous post for the exact path.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stargzrr11:
The re-launching S-voice (and consequentally Google Now) when pressing the back button was driving me nuts, so I made a small change to the above Tasker profile. See notes below. Do note you need root for this to work correctly.

Also, the application check delay setting isn't necessary. Tasker automatically scales back the application check when the screen turns off (this may have been a feature added since this post was created).

In the preferences for the below task, set a cooldown of 10 seconds and a priority of 6.

Profile "SVoice Override"​

Context:

State Application "S Voice"​

Task:

Kill App "S Voice Use Root On"​

Go Home "Page 2"​

Load App "Voice Search"​

In the preferences for the below task, set a cooldown of 0 and a priority of 5.

Profile "Kill SVoice"​

Context:

State Application "S Voice"​

Task:

Kill App "S Voice Use Root On"​

This Tasker setup will kill S-Voice, load the home screen (so the back button doesn't go to S-Voice), then load Google Now's Voice Search. Tasker will only run this task once every 10 seconds, so you don't get repeated popups.

The second item just makes sure S Voice stays dead while your main Google Now search is running. :)

So far so good on this.

I setup a very similar profile in tasker to change the "My Magazines" swipe up action on the home screen to load Google Now.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
Play Store app

You can install this little tasker app factory app which I've just published on Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=hu.viczian.deathtosvoice

I converted the tasker project outlined above. I've been using for a while now. You don't need tasker (or even secure settings) for it to work.

Please let me know your experiences.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
hi guys,

this works amazingly well. i just have one problem - its the s-view cover....

if the cover is closed the screen turns off very fast, is there any setting to extend the timeout or any other way to get arround this issue.

because if the cover is closed and i wake it up with hi galaxy it starts voice search and i can say for example "what time is it" and i get back "the time is..." and the screen turns off and stopps everything....

also the funcitons of s-view cover get unusable, because it says open cover to use s-voice but s voice is killed right away and it still shows the message, so i cant swipe to start the camera....for example

and ideas?

i am using tasker and i am rooted, so i can work on it, but dont know how i could achieve that.....

one more thing i figured out. if the phone is NOT coverd with the s-view cover and the screen is off. i can wake it up with the button on my bluetooth headset and it starts voice search. problem now is. the phone is listening on the phone mic for my voice as well its using the phones speaker to give me the answer (for example if i am asking what time it is)

if the screen is on and i start voice search with the button on my headset it works just fine. it routs the sound and i can hear the short beep as well it uses the headset for my voice recognition and i can hear the answer also on my headset.

the reason why i am trying to set this up, is to use it in my car with the built in bluetooth connectivity...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
add a DISPLAY / TIMEOUT
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
can you give me more details on that?

because my regular screen timeout is set to 10 minutes and i have other apps and tasker settings where the screentimout is set to 24 hours, but as soon the s-view case closes i get the s view window (which is allright) but the timeout for this winodw is just a couple seconds and not long enough...

is there any setting to set a s view screen timout? havent found anything yet...
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
Yes, I am sorry. I would put the set display / timeout command in the SVoice task right after it has started google voice search. if the case overrides it, you can try to add a Task / Wait command with 2-3 seconds and then carry out the display timeout update.

Unfortunately I don't have an sview case, cannot experiment. But if you do manage to solve this, could you let me know how it went, I would love to add the option to my "S for Switch Voice" application.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
unfortunately this doesnt work. as mentioned before, this is the regular screen timout. the s-view cover has a diffrent screen timeout and havent found any solution yet how to change it.

i am pretty sure that there is no tasker setting for it. i wouldnt mind hardcode it do an configuration file to have a higher timeout, but still searching for it and cant find where the s-view cover gets the information. maybe even from the chip in the cover?!

I have another question about the whole google now setup.

if i freeze s voice with titanium and i press any button or anything which would activate s-voice normaly it will now launch google voice dialer...

this is not google now but is there maybe a way to replace google voice dialer with a link to google now.

there is no icon on my system where i could start google voice dialer direct. its somewhere deep in the system. has anybody experience with it? it would be even great if we could use that for the whole tasker setup. for example if google voice dialer starts we close it with tasker and open google voice search. (google now)

because this dialer is way less hungry on ressources compared to s-voice
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
Good thinking, but the problem is if you freeze s-voice voice wake-up will stop to work. I think the perfect solution would be to use Xposed framework,,, but I am yet to understand how it works.

Maybe somebody with Xposed Xperience???

(and sorry for the pun)
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
True, I forgot about the voice wake up, since that is not that important for me....

Xposed sounds also like a good idea..

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
Guys, I have a little off-topic question.

I froze now s voice with titanium backup. Now if push the button on the headset it activates Google voice dialer. How can I manage to set up a profile with it?

Because this is not listed as an app. It's not in the app drawer and can't select it with tasker. Any ideas?

Or dies anybody know where android has the setting to start a voice if it receives the signal of the Bluetooth headset instead of launching any other app. I am thinking about something like the default apps for actions in android...

Sent from my SM-N9005
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
Guys I guess I have a solution. It worked at least for me with my setup.

Setup:

Galaxy note 3

S-voice frozen with titanium

Now it always started voice dialer of Google, which is a pos.

I installed voice command https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.itdevcrowd.voicecommand

And now if I press the button on my headset it opens Google voice search. To always listen you can also install open mic.

Hope this helps you guys too. Now no more heavy resource load because of s-voice.

Hopefully they stop development and remove it from the device after the new agreement with Google...

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
Open Mic uses a lot of battery, while S Voice utilizes Snapdragon800 hw, which has zero effect on battery life. Your voice just becomes another power-button.

Of course we are talking about two different resources: battery and RAM, neither of which our phones are lacking. Currently I rather give up 25MB of RAM than 5-10%* of battery. But each should decide for themselves.

What's infuriating is that Samsung could have just made it optional, and we didn't have choose which finger to bite.

*guesstimate
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
Ok didn't know that, I was reading that open mic is supporting the hardware too. But no other work around worked so far. This is the best solution. I especially want it for headset and my car...

It's been a few weeks since I tried Open Mic+. I haven't followed its progress. I will look into their HW support. Thanks for the tip!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Snake-Plissken:
Ok, just wanted to post my findings. I don't really want that the phone always listens, I want more to use it with headset and car. Haven't tried my newest solution with the car yet but works flawless for headset. All other solutions didn't worked for the car connection....I will report once I tried it

I tried OpenMic+ and it killed my battery.

How's the battery life of this app?

Many thanks.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
I don't see any battery drain whether I enable voice wake-up or not on the SnapDragon 800 version of Note 3. It's just like a third power button. I get a bunch of false wake-ups though (mostly when we speak english around the device), but most of the time my phone is muted, so I see the white Google screen come up for a few seconds (sometimes searches for some random stuff too), then goes back to sleep.

One thing I noticed, the phone is much more sensitive to the wake up command, then how much Google Voice Search can pick up. I mean I can shout "Hi Galaxy" and it will wake the phone anywhere in my apartment, but I have to be within about a 1m range of the phone for Google Voice Search to actually understand my command or question.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knite75:
Do you know if Samsung is taking advantage of the dedicate voice recognition core in the S800 like Motorola is doing with the Moto X?

I can't seem to find any official literature from Samsung regarding the above matter.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZiadK87:
Enabling/Disabling Wake Up Commands

Since I only care about using wake up commands when I'm in the car (I can determine that by tasker variables with the help of NFC or bluetooth), is there any way to toggle them from Tasker?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vgergo:
You can try to record the on / off procedure using repetitouch
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ZiadK87:
Yeah that was the first thing that came to my mind but I was looking for something more "elegant". However, after a few days with the feature turned on, I haven't noticed any big battery drains. So I guess I'll keep it turned on.

I've tried all of that. I was hoping that someone could have had the same problem as me and could help. No matter what rom or kernel i flash the boot up time remains the same = very long minutes!! Could a bad battery be the cause? Or is this a hardware problem? Like motherboard?
[HTC One X] webpatrick:
You cannot run a RUU, cause there are no RUU's for your version-main and downgrading is not possible if you are not S-OFF (which you are not).

Can't be the battery, even voltage looks normal.

So is the device still stock? Or do you run a custom ROM?
[HTC One X] Pedroenf:
Did you read all my posts??? The RUU was just to exemplify the boot up long time. Yes i'm running a custom rom, but i have tried lots of roms. No one here had a similar problem? I'm i the first one? Lol.
[HTC One X] lawrence750:
just to be sure (and to go back to basics a bit):

the first boot of course takes a lot longer than usual. so are you letting it set itself up etc and rebooting a few times before you measure the boot time?

Or are you literally flashing rom after rom, booting for first time and kinda thinking 'this is still slow wtf'?

just checking! (i've learnt to never assume things :) )
[HTC One X] Pedroenf:
i understand your "concern" lol. But no, i install roms and configure them and reboot and retry another kernel (repacked or not). But even when i try to boot into fastboot it takes forever to boot that's why i gave the RUU.exe example: The RUU.exe reboot to fastboot to continue the rom installation but in my case it times out because of the problem i mentioned - horrible boot up process. Is there any way to know or see the boot log?
