lazer with the google home apk i shared with you earlier, tethered google voice works flawlessy for me - in fact it is now my gear's primary input interface - i can tell it to open apps, set reminders, call someone, text someone etc.. but the caveat is you need to be tethered. Battery drain is not as bad as I thought - out the door at 7:00 am, back home to charge at 10 pm.so only disadvantage is if you are away from the charger overnight
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lazer9:
On my gear, Google Now Search even when tethered produces the message - device not compatible or whatever when trying to make a call command.

And for some reason if I stay tethered, in 2 hrs or less, my gear is completely drained. This is with the Galaxy S4 KitKat rooted tethering enabled Bluetooth and just selecting on the Gear Bluetooth-S4 setting "enable Internet". No PDA net or nothing. I don't get why mine drains so bad or I would have no problem leaving it tethered other than what I said above, why does Google Search see my Gear as not compatible to make a call when evoking that command?

Do you think it's all in the Google Home apk and not the Search app or frameworks? I've tried so much **** lately to get this to work and Crutz sent me some files to try which didn't resolve, I can't even remember now where I have the apk you sent me, lol :laugh:
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] BigBison420:
Same here... google voice incredibly slow, TETHERED OR NOT! Also noticing EXTREME battery drain when tethering WiFi from my Note 2... More concerned with the speed of Google Voice though..
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] animatechnica:
Wow that is extreme. I use easy tether and my battery lasts a long time. Unless you meant actual screen on time in which case it be lower but certainly more than just 2 hours.

By the way the Google home was sent to you by PM so check there

Could be a combo of the Google play services + home. I can send mine over later when I get home
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lazer9:
Sure, if you could and re-send the other one if possible. I checked my PM folder and can't find it :(
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] animatechnica:
sorry got sidetracked yesterday

the google home launcher is here:

https://mega.co.nz/#!5hoBjDRL!cv0Wc0SaSAIGH5kz9sSFK1R5cn4FlcpeYyMdT4-Nhc0

just extract the GoogleHome.apk and install it
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lazer9:
Thanks, will try, although I remember finding this same 3 file setup on a google search before and think I tried it. Don't install the other two files though, correct?

And what about Google Play Service OR Framework update? Is that needed?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] animatechnica:
no don't install the others but i did remember one step that enabled 'ok google' for me -

connect to the phone and access the playstore, install open mic+ then open it - it should give you a message to update google services, accept the download (do not install this from the play store) and once it is installed, you can then remove open mic+
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lazer9:
I already have Open Mic+ installed. It wouldn't give me that optiot to update google... I do remember it doing it once before though and I didn't chose to update. I went in and force closed and cleared both cache & data on Open Mic+ and reloaded it hoping to get that option but it didn't come up. I know I currently have Crutz's Google services and Google Now installed.

When tethered I can voice the command "Call contact name" and it gives me a message " Your device doesn't support this function"

Not sure how to proceed. :confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] animatechnica:
hate to suggest this but perhaps start fresh with just the null 23 - then install home/voice/ and open mic+, then upgrade via open mike
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lazer9:
Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately I don't have the patience to go through that whole process and setting up my stuff again. I'm still hoping for another solution. I can't believe the hours/days I've put into this already, blah :rolleyes:
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] BigBison420:
I just wanted to let you guys know

I installed SWapp LINK from google play - I can text people using the google voice service and guess what?? it's accurate and it's faster!!! I'm not sure why but at first it took a verrrrrrrrrrrry long time ... GIVE this a ShoT !!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] lazer9:
I tried this app (several versions) and finally un-installed it due to it force closing when exiting the app AND noticeable battery drain at least on my setup. :(
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] BigBison420:
the app was just updated to version G which fixed a ton of issues i was also experiencing with it. Not sure what the latest version you had was... but google voice types out the messages accurately and fast for me at least... im lovin it!!
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Muffycheeks:
S-Voice works great with stock sms for me
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] Brisco_County:
A quick thanks for the great information. Works great, just remember to clear cache in google search and restart if you are having problems. I now have a fully offline google translate with voice recognition on the gear. This will come in real handy.

Odd thing is I used the language files from my phone and it speaks the languages fully translated on the gear, but refuses to work for offline English on the phone. Translates in text but not spoken.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] tooandrew:
that folder is empty for me :/

Edit: i found an english zip elsewhere, and after much struggle, i have offline voice recognition working on my phone and my gear. thanks :)
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] warrencoakley:
You say you can tether all day? If i tether for more that 5 minutes it becomes insanely hot and i need to turn the bluetooth tethering off.

Is there something i have down wrong? i would love to have the option to tether all day long?

When i installed the null rom i went for custom instead of stock,could that be the issue?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] peter7:
Hello - does this work also for the Gear2 and with german language ?
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] noellenchris:
I doubt it will work exactly the same, but if your rooted on Tizen you may be able to take a look at the system folders and see if you can find the same files/folders. You can then backup yours from the Gear2 and try to move the ones from your phone. Otherwise, being on Tizen may dampen things. Until developement picks up.

Chris
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] pcpimpin:
Can you please give me more details? Did you find the english zip elsewhere on your phone? Did you have to change owner?

[Samsung Galaxy Gear] look4alec:
My Note 3 doesn't have the en-US directory as I believe it's built in to the ROM I use. However, this post has a link to the en-US archive. If you don't want to deal with root manager there is also a flashable zip:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2549644

I just downloaded the en-US archive, extracted it, and put into in the correct folder. I had to set permissions for all 26 files one at a time but it finally worked. Thanks, everyone for this!

I didn't flash the zip, but I assume the flashable .zip just inserts the folder in the right place and sets all the permissions for you.

If you do it manually like I did, you must set permissions before you restart or the files all go bye bye - I made that mistake as I rarely have ever had to change permissions.
[Samsung Galaxy Gear] 31313ev3rstorm:
I'm trying to get utter! to work on my Gear...

I am trying to use Google Offline Voice Recognition, but I can't figure out how to get it to work. Do I need to be rooted? In order to put the files in the correct spot? I tried rooting with Cydia Impactor, but that didn't work for some reason. My Gear has the newest version of the software that is still Android. Nobody posted anything about how to root a Gear with that Android version.

HELP PLEASE

I have seen the nexus 4 unroot toolkit, but i need some help.

I have a Nexus 4 running 4.2.2, TWRP, and Franco.Kernel.

i want to upgrade the Nexus 4 to 4.4 KitKat, i never had the chance to upgrade to 4.3 because i was rooted.

I do not mind loosing my root, franco.kernel or twrp, i just want to be able to get the new updates that are being released from google, and OTA if possible.

it is super important to me that i don't loose my apps and data.

Sorry if the question seems foolish/dumb, i am not an android expert. :silly:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dafuq4339:
I will give this thread 1 more try

Update:

I have recently flashed the stock kernel for android 4.2.2, and by my little understanding, all I need to do is get rid of my custom recovery, and then I will be able to upgrade OTA without loosing data.

Is this correct? If so, where do I find stock recovery? Is it the recovery.img file inside the android software zip?

Btw. I couldnt find anything on xda about this.

Please help me out, all help appreciated.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lalith10:
I heard there are some problems with 4.3. Coz till now I faced no problems with my current version 4.2 and I like to stay with the best versions rather than updating to new ones and face problems. So are there any pleasing features to get updated? And with the current version of my tablet there is landscape mode and I don't like portrait! (Heard there is no landscape mode in 4.3!) :(

Sorry if therez already another thread on this topic! :|
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iBolski:
4.3 is good and 4.4 is pretty stable. My only gripe with 4.4 is that it broke Flash video, but there is a fix for it. You have to use Dolphin browser, but I prefer Dolphin anyways. Before, I had to use Firefox on 4.3.

As for rotation, I have no issue with it. Then again, I don't use the stock launcher as I use Nova. This was on 4.3 as well as 4.4.

Under 4.4, rotation works just fine in landscape mode on the default launcher that comes with it.

But, it all comes to your preference. If you're comfortable with 4.2, then by all means, stick with it. You don't HAVE to upgrade to the latest and greatest.

But, with 4.3 you get the "butter" patch which makes the tablet response much smoother. 4.4 does that even better with the way it handles memory so that 4.4 will run well on low-memory devices.

It all depends. Some people have issues, others do not. Most issues I believe are from doing an upgrade and leaving all your apps installed from a previous version. I've learned it's best to backup the device, wipe it clean completely and then upgrade and then reinstall your apps.

Or, you could just go into recovery after the upgrade and try wipe dalvik and see if that helps. But usually, a full wipe of data and dalvik can really speed things up.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Reiven89:
4.3 and 4.4 are alot better then 4.2 on our tablet....an example its the fixed trim, after updating to 4.3 im very happy while on 4.2 the tablet was lagging and showing bad performance. I recommend updating 4.3 or 4.4.

[Galaxy S III Mini General] mikma80:
Here's small guide about ClockworkMod Recovery / Team Win Recovery Project feature "ADB Sideload".

The example is done with TWRP but the basic idea with CWM is pretty much the same.

Required tools for uploading:

- Samsung Galaxy S3 mini with CWM/TWRP recovery

- Android SDK -> DOWNLOAD FOR OTHER PLATFORMS -> installer_r22.3-windows.exe

- Desired ROM to be installed, in this example it's DMod V6

The steps:

1) Install the SDK, start it and select "Android SDK Tools" and "Android SDK Platform-tools" and then "Install 2 packages"

2) Locate the "adb.exe" file that was installed with "Android SDK Platform-tools", It's usually in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools". I decided to copy the "platform-tools" folder into c:\ and renamed it to "adb".

3) Copy the ROM you desire to install in the "adb" folder

4) Boot the phone into recovery, and select "Advanced":

5) Plug the USB cable in

6) Start "Command Prompt" in Windows (Start -> type in "cmd" to search box and select "cmd.exe")

7) Type: "cd \adb"

8) Type: "adb kill-server"

9) Type: "adb usb"

* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
restarting in USB mode

10) Type: "adb devices"

List of devices attached
sh3d7h3dj631f6a7 recovery

11) Select the "ADB Sideload" from the phone, swipe to start

12) Type: "adb devices"

List of devices attached
sh3d7h3dj631f6a7 sideload

13) Type: "adb sideload DModV6.zip"

Wait for the upload to finish and you are done! Have fun installing DMod V6 :)

WAIT! There's this error with adb:

error: closed

1) Cancel the "ADB Sideload" from phone, return to "Advanced" menu

2) Read the guide again from step 8 and obey them!

Sideload might not be option for that because that is stock recovery.

Looks like you have lost atleast your cache partition, you might need to use Odin and reflash the whole phone again with PDA option.

Make sure the following:

1) Your phone is rooted and up and running in custom recovery (TWRP is better imo)

2) You have proper drivers installed in your Windows (KIES does this trick)

3) You have USB debugging enabled in the phone

Buy a sdcard reader, take your sdcard out, insert the sdcard into the reader and plug the reader into your PC. Copy the rom in the sdcard.

Or just install Samsung USB drivers and use adb push command to put your ROM in sdcard.

To those people with random reboot:

-Did you check your apps first? Try booting in safe mode and use your tablet for a day; if there is no reboot then that means some of your apps did that.

-Did your disabled any of Google app sync? Try enabling the sync again.

Personally I have never experience random reboot on this tablet. On my N7 2012 there were countless times the reboot occurs but that was definitely due to lack of ram.
