General :: Text To Speech On Selected Text?
Sep 7, 2013
I wonder if there is ability to replicate this feature from iOS :
In iOS you can turn on Accessibility function that add the "Speak" button to the "selection menu". And if you click, it would turn on Text To Speech engine and read selected text. Can I do the same thing in Android ?
PS: I assume that regular app could not modify "copy, paste, cut menu" so I probably need custom ROM. (I'm particularly interested Nexus 7 2013 solution, but I assume that solution should be universal because it is just modification to the "Selection menu" and add button)

I have a problem as follows:
In my project i am having rich text editor options to apply for the edit text view. In that i applied font color,font names,font size options for user.But these options will apply for whole text available in edit text. But my problem is i want to apply user selected settings (like font color,size,font) for user selected text instead of Whole text. i want to apply the user selected font/color/size to the user selected text.How?
How to implement this .

I would like to be able to say an email or text message to myself or my wife sometimes. When I hold down the input field I get an input choice menu but the only option there is the Android Keyboard.Am I doing it wrong?What am I missing? I would also like to have it read emails to me, and word docs (or just .txt).I have a Kindle but my phone is a little more convenient for something I would rather read in bits and pieces while walking to and fro the car or whatever.

I somehow activated the text to speech for incoming calls and text messages. (Says the name of contact calling/texting).How do I shut this off? I've spent days trying to figure it out with no luck.

Whenever I try to access my text-to-speech settings, I always get the error: "The application Settings (process com.android.settings) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again." Not sure how to fix this. I've been trying to use utter! and Assistant, but neither give me voice feedback, and utter! tells me that the text-to-speech engine initialization failed. how to fix and/or rebuild the tts engine? I don't really want to do a factory reset or reinstall my ROM. Also, please note that the ROM is not the problem, I've already researched this. Also note that I have Google Voice and Voice Search both installed, and both work just fine. I can input commands vocally, but the text-to-speech issue does not funcion.

Does a text to speech exist that sounds like megatron from transformers? Or optimus prime? Just something uber cool like that?

So, I have this annoyance on the S4 that occurs whenever I use the in-built Gallery and Internet app. Whenever I select a photo to delete, the phone goes "Tick box, ticked." Or when I unelected a photo, "Tick box, unticked." Another example of this is when I go onto the Internet on the phone, and I go to a webpage, the phone goes "Page, refreshed." I've tried to turn everything associated with this problem, off but it just keeps re-occurring. How to turn this off.

I rooted my phone (Samsung Galaxy S Showcase i500) the other day and deleted a lot of the stock apk files, the ones that I thought I didn't need .
One of them was Voice Search (and also voice commands, if that matters). Now, my speech or voice to text in my text messaging program is not working. Whenever I press the mic icon, nothing happens. Through searching I think I've determined it's because I deleted the voice search apk?
Whenever I go to the Market to download Google Voice Search, the Market says its already "installed"...but obviously its not?! I've tried downloading the file from other places but when I try to install it says "There is a problem parsing the package."
Bottom line, how do I get my speech to text back?

This appears to be affect multiple brands and models. About a 3-4 days ago it started deleting previous sentences or phrases and only leaving the most recent phrase you spoke minus the last word. Long delays as well. As mentioned, it is affecting multiple phones based on other comments throughout internet. Very frustrating!
Initially I thought it was related to the recent Maps update, but rolled back to older version and no change. Not sure about the recent change for Google Voice to Hangouts, but that seems like a possibility . .

I have a Samsung Galaxy Centura and I'm using Go SMS Pro and SwiftKey.
Starting today, when I try to text using the voice to text feature, every time I start a new sentence, the previous sentence disappears. This has never happened to me before. I tried repeatedly, to the point I was cursing, and now it is also blocking out offensive words also. I went to Language and Input > Google Voice Typing and made sure Block offensive words is not checked.

I have a Sprint Galaxy 4. I understand that there is a google speak to text program already installed in the phone but I cannot find it. how to make it work?
Also, it is important to be that a [B]program not only reads the incoming texts but that I can respond to them handsfree via the Blue tooth speaker in my car. Can I do that with the google. program? If not, what is another good program to use?

The speech to text function that works in most apps (text, email etc) on the Evo has great recognition. But are there any settings or any way to get the speech to text to start a sentence with capitalization? I know you can say "period" to make it put a period at the end.
