Do You Have Quick Search Mic?

[lekky]

Just want to ask you guys, when on the homescreen, and you press the Search key you get the quick search box. To the right of the text box do you have a search button AND a mic button?

The reason I'm asking is because I do have the mic button, but I can't remember if this is there by default...

Nope, not on mine!

What app did you install to get this?

 

[gogol]

Try to install the "text to speech" data ...

It should be in one of the "Settings" ...

Let me know if this adds the mic tot he quick search bar.

 

[Proudest_Monkey]

text to speech is already installed. Surely text to speech is different to speech to text?

 

[gogol]

Yes, that's different.

I was expecting that the speech to text "needs" this kind of data.

I was wrong

text to speech is already installed. Surely text to speech is different to speech to text?

 

[lekky]

So thats a no then?

Keeps crashing when I run it

 

[lekky]

-_- Its fine for me.. What point does it crash, the installation?

 

[firetrap]

I tried this on my desire and its crashing while starting the app

 

[lekky]

Don't start the app, just check if you have a quick search bar mic, and test that the voice input works. The app isn't meant to be opened!!!

Will look

I think its a bit silly that they removed it as it was a popular app.

 

[nx1977]

When I hit the mic in the search bar, that's when it crashes for me. Evern after a reboot.

 

[kboya]

likewise: press mic key = force close!
boo

 

[lekky]

hmmm.. wonder why this works for me and no one else...!

Yip I can definately say that works for me too. And with handcent messaging you can even write text messages with voice to text.

Many thanks. Voice search and texts now working a treat!
