if you do exactly as its stated in post nr.1 then you can have voice to text if you switch your input to android keyboard. however if you do not want to use this keyboard cuz you think HTC one is better then when you re replying to a txt using handcent sms app click on menu and there will be speech button press it speak whatever and voila :)
[Desire General] masrinz:
Hi, could one of you guys please clarify if you are able to maintain:

1) voice to text AND 2) pinch to zoom AND 3) HTC keyboard all at the same time or are you having to switch between keyboards for different functions? Thanks
[Desire General] cez10:
1. to get voice to text working on your desire you need the android keyboard running OR as i said earlier the handcent app which support VTT and it doesnt require to switch the keyboard to android.

2. while android keyboard is selected as the main input method i am not able to pinch zoom.

3. im using htc keyboard and handcent app for messaging + vtt and everything works fine that way
[Desire General] masrinz:
cez10 - thanks for the reply.....

I'm still waiting for my desire, so pls excuse the questions if they are simple....

One more question - are you able to use voice google search by pressing the search key? If yes do you have to switch between keyboards or do anything else to get it going?

mmmm, followed the original post. Can now use the voice to search google, but still have the Install Voice data greyed out (T mobile). I cannot see the microphone icon when using Handcent either.

Go into Language and Keyboard section and make sure that Android is ticked and voice is ticked in settings.

Anyone tried using the Desire Keyboard which is Availible for the Nexus One to do this ?
[Desire General] Kinclad:
Ok i'm really sorry if this has been covered already but....

I don't want the android kb so I have just downloaded the Handcent SMS App and I have also installed voice data but when I click the Speak button when replying to a text it comes up with 'Recognizer not present'.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.
[Desire General] Kinclad:
ahhh dont worry had to uninstall and then reinstall the Handcent app.

As most people have found the recognition on sms is a bit flaky and yet I have tried about a dozen on just the voice search for the browser and virtually everyone came out 100%.

Any idea if it is possible to modify the standard HTC keyboard to include the Microphone button as well? I also prefer the HTC keyboard keys and word suggestions.

Because when I speak in French, it just write it and interpret the text in English and it doesn't make any sense.

Odd. It isn't for me and I'm on T-Mobile UK too.

I didn't get my phone from T-Mobile though but a third party store. Maybe they've disabled it.
[Desire General] bradavon:
How come there is no official way to do this? What's the point HTC offering "Install Voice Data" if you cannot officially use it?

[Desire General] bradavon:
Thanks guys. It installs and works as expected.

It could be because I've got a blocked nose but you have to speak REALLY clearly. If I just talk normally I get all manner of nonsense. I said "I'm going to be late for work" and it gave me "adrenalin dragons" WTF! :D. I said it again clearer and it worked fine.

It's good to see the Android keyboard has an extra ALT key, it gives access to loads of symbol, including the £ symbol. It's missing on the HTC one! The HTC keyboard hides the SEND button behind the keyboard too, when in landscape mode.

The Text-to-Speech Google Search tool is bloody fantastic :D.

The Android keyboard has a spell checker too but it appears to have no ability to "add words to a dictionary" and it's intelligence in working out misspelt words is nowhere near as good as the HTC one. Annoyingly the key to switch between letters and numbers is on the right on the HTC but left on the Android.

I think for day-to-day use the HTC keyboard is better (even though the Android one has that handy ALT key, giving access to loads of symbols) but obviously the Android keyboard has the handy text-to-speech.
[Desire General] bradavon:
Empty post.
[Desire General] bradavon:
Here's how to add the MIC key to the HTC Sense keyboard:

http://nimbu.amorvi.com/2010/04/add-full-voice-to-text-to-htc-desire/

Ignore step 1 on each of the instructions. Contrary to what the site tells you, it gets you to download v1.4 (Desire) and v1.3 (Hero) of the Voice Search tool. The version in the "VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk" is 1.5. I guess there could be something in the link implying you need v1.3 (i.e - Hero) for Android 1.5.

That's Android 1.5, not to be confused with the Voice Search tool 1.5! :D

If you really just want the Voice Search without Keyboard too, I suppose it's handy (but it's an older version remember).

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

Step 2 of the Android keyboard instructions is the identical "VoiceSearchWithKeyboard.apk" file found earlier in this post. I've downloaded it, it's an identical file.

The Android Keyboard instructions basically mirror what we've already done in this thread. But the instructions don't get you to download the "enable text to speech" in Settings. I'm wondering if it's actually needed after all?
[Desire General] N4D5:
Im on orange and mine is also greyed out any ideas how i install this.

[Desire General] al89nut:
Read back in thread. You need to download and install an app.

Easy to do and let's you voice search

http://knowyourmobile.com/smartphon...ow_to_add_voice_search_to_the_htc_desire.html

If it won't download, dl to your pc and put on the smart card and install via Astro.

After that you can also download a new keyboard which lets you do voice to text.

Dangerous keyboard?

I was about to install the keyboard on P2 in this thread, but it asks for all kind of access to my phone, like direct call, memorycard, contacts etc.. Should not be required for a keybaord app, so this is most likely a trojan.

Three row Landscape keyboard

When I first got my Rhodium (OK, TMO US HTC Touch Pro2) I loved the landscape keyboard, it only had 3 rows of keys and was very unobtrusive and functional. Then I started flashing and I really really really (as my 5 year old would say) dislike the new landscape EZInput keyboard layout. I have searched and searched endlessly for the original three row keyboard, but I've had no luck, there is one, but it's only for VGA devices, and I did dump my Rhodium ROM, but I haven't found a way to make a cab out of the dumped modules for the original keyboard (or any other modules for that matter), there are a couple of tutorials here and there, and I have followed them, but maybe because I have windows 7 they don't work, or maybe I'm doing something wrong.

Case in point: does anyone know where to get the below keyboard and install it on the HD2?

[HD2 General] ZaidSenall:
When I first got my HD2, my fingers were all over the place and I couldn't click on anything accurately. I really missed my Rhodium but figured that I would adapt to the new capacitive screen and the HD2 didn't have the "Align Screen" available in its settings. I must say that I was still struggling with it until today that I found this and I was able to align my screen and now I can tap anywhere with great accuracy and my days of missing my Rhodium are gone...

[HD2 General] FreakyFerret:
People who plan to include a lot of data in their thread and lots of responses usually reserve a space or two on the thread. This is because some forum restrict the size of a post you can make, even editted. So for instance, each post can only be 500 characters and no more. This allows them to include more information (characters) at the beginning of the thread.

Yes, one wonders why HTC released the T-MO HD2 with the old version when they will soon be releasing the so called HD Mini with 6.5.3.
[HD2 General] kable:
The Stock ROM is nice and suitable for your average Joe but for cell phone enthusiasts it is a memory hog and full of bloatware. That said, it would need to be stripped to be worthy of its own thread.
[HD2 General] ZaidSenall:
I have to agree with the bloatware part of your statement. However, every cooked ROM that I used had it's own bloatware. Now, I know this is preference, but for instance, I don't like Opera, I prefer plain old IE, however, Opera is installed in all Cooked ROMs and there is no way to uninstall it. There are several other things that I would take out of every ROM, including the Stock of course, but I just havent have time to learn how to cook myself yet. I will soon, though... matter of fact, I'm dumping my ROM right now and will see how I can manage to "clean it up" a little bit and see what happens...

I'm a cell phone enthusiast myself, or at least I consider my selft to be one. My first Phone was an MDA, then I had a Wing, then the Touch Pro2, and now the HD2, and I flashed and customized each and every one of them...

Thanks for you link.

I'm watching and hoping for this also but it might who knows when this will be available. I did d/l the 2.10.531.0 rom just in case and I have flashed the Energy Rom with home cookies. It's nice! Kumar's looks good as well as the Elegance rom listed in this thread.

For my cents, the rom on my hd2 2.10.531.1 was great but I want to be able to get into the system settings and found it easier to flash than get a shortcut to get me into the real WMo system. :)
[HD2 General] efjay:
I've already flashed it, no difference from stock. I think its already been mentioned here as well that there is no discernable difference, all the stock programs are there.
[HD2 General] ZaidSenall:
What do you mean by getting into the system settings?
[HD2 General] DeekoVB5:
Hmm, I flashed back to 2.10.531.0 and it seems exactly the same as my phone was when I picked it up from the store. The ROM date is 2/19 which I seem to recall being the same date my phone was before flashing it, too.

Anyone still on 2.10.531.1 want to confirm version numbers? I'm just trying to figure out what's different, since everyone seems to be eschewing 2.10.531.0.

My name is Sheldon and I support this message.

Recently bricked a G1 for the first time (And I have done many SPL/Radio flashes before on multiple G1's) and it was only during reboot into recovery after a flash that the battery got pulled by mistake causing it to brick.

Reason I support this theory is because at that moment the phone was flagged to recovery boot and did not complete this process successfully after flashing a new SPL. It was the ENG spl I was flashing too.

A+ on the write up to OP.
[G1 Android Development] ultma75:
+1 nice theory and well written out
[G1 Android Development] xaueious:
Not so sure about any SPL + radio combination working.

Specifically there were some really weird cases of bricks for users flashing new radio and SPL for Magic (1.76.X HBOOT, 6.35.X RADIO) on a 32B Magic. Afterwards their ROM authentication always failed for some reason.

So there are combination that actually do not work?

Sorry, digression:

Can we petition for one? Seriously, I have been seeing comments on having a 'like' button over XDA since the new revamp.
[G1 Android Development] mohsinkhan47:
I might disagree with this theory because my g1 used to run with a broken recovery image. A couple of months ago I tried to figure out what was the max size of an recovery image. A way of testing this was by flashing an image that was very large and seeing how much will be copied. So let's say the recovery image can only be up to 10 mb but instead I flashed a 70 mb image. It will get flashed but no error massage will appear. So then I rebooted and went into recovery mode. It didn't work out and got stuck on a black screen. So I rebooted, reflashed ra-recovery image, test it out, and it worked out perfectly. Sadly I didn't recovery any speific amount of size for the recovery image. If the android OS runs much like a computer, First it will check the bios, bootloader, recovery, and then load the rom, or start to run the enviroment for the android operating system. Can someone check what those the update-script say in the deathspl.

[G1 Android Development] Sheldonjace:
"The phone was jammed into boot mode 3 -- recovery, and ignored boot-time signals to alter boot mode -- specifically, the camera button, which should, under normal circumstances, activate FASTBOOT. It appears that boot-time signals are ignored when the device is not in normal boot mode."

I maybe completely off but here is why I support this theory:

G1's don't have a "BIOS" to be checked upon starting that determine where or what type of boot up to perform so you can quickly change the settings by pressing F2 to say "Boot Normal Boot first, then Fastboot, then Recovery, etc" like a computer can. What the OP is stating is that when the phone is bricked, it could be due to it being "Flagged" at trying to boot into recovery and not taking ANY other boot commands....even if the Recovery Image may have been corrupted (which if it did have a BIOS like a computer it would attempt to boot the next in line option you've set if previous option failed)...so this causes the phone to be rendered useless ie: Bricked.

SOOO thats why the last part of the original post says it would be nice to develop (if possible) a SPL that would not allow this flag to be set at Boot recovery thus helping avoid possible bricks. Since if it can't flag Boot Recovery, then if the image were corrupted it would at least accept other boot signals for Normal boot and FastBoot which in turn allow you to fix said failed image.

Does any of that make sense? its late and I feel like I'm rambling.
