Making Text To Speech Application
Apr 22, 2012
I'm making text to speech application.I successfully implemented the application by referring some tutorials. And it works fine.But those tutorials use only one class to implement text to speech application.Now, I want to use two classes. One for main activity and another for text to speech.I tried to implement it. But the problem is that the text to speech conversion is not working. I can't hear any voice output.My codes are given below..
Code:
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.os.Bundle;
[code]....

I am attempting to create a wrapper class for Google Android's Text-To-Speech functionality. However, I'm having trouble finding a way to have the system pause until after the onInit function has finished. Attached at the bottom is something of a solution I created based on what I found here: http://stackoverflow.com /questions/ 1160876/android-speech-how-can-you-read-text-in-android However, this solution does not seem to work. Any thoughts on why this might not be working, or what would be a good idea in order to make sure that any Speak() calls happen after my onInit() call? public class SpeechSynth implements OnInitListener
{private TextToSpeech tts;
static final int TTS_CHECK_CODE = 0;
private int ready = 0;
private ReentrantLock waitForInitLock = new ReentrantLock();
SpeechSynth( Activity screen )
{ ready = 0;
tts = new TextToSpeech( screen, this );
waitForInitLock.lock();
public void onInit(int status)
{ if (status == TextToSpeech.SUCCESS)
{ready = 1;
} waitForInitLock.unlock();
}public int Speak( String text )
{ if( ready == 1 )
{tts.speak(text, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_ADD, null);
return 1;
} else
{ return 0;
} I have been able to make it so that I can pass a string of text through the constructor, then have it played in the onInit() function. However, I would really like to avoid having to destroy and re-create the whole text-to-speech engine every time I need to have my program say something different.

I am looking for the best way to provide an audible speech component for my Android application (Eliza Mobile Therapist game). Is the Android TTS (text-to-speech) API viable at this time? I want to call a function from my Java code with the spoken text and hear it (hopefully in different voices/dialects) on the phone. Is this technology currently possible?

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.

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)

This isn't particularly something I use, but I noticed today that it doesn't. Is it a 2.1 thing, as it worked on my old hero.Is this build of 2.1 just missing the voice recognition files or something? Any way of getting it working?Sent from my HTC Desire using Tapatalk

Don't know if it's been covered, but I bought Better Keyboard last night ($2.99). Got it installed and it has a microphone on it. My speech to text now works perfect.A little slow, but I like it.

How can you read data, i.e. convert simple text strings to voice (speech) in Android? Is there an API where I can do something like this: TextToVoice speaker = new TextToVoice();speaker.Speak("Hello World");

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.

One of the new phones has "the button" for instant select sender then speech to text. Big hands little kbd / dang near blind = fail. Is there an app that does the same for my Hero and will it speak my messages back to me. Sure would make my life easier.

I'm cycling with friends of me (organized rides). but I still want to cycle those roads again. I record the track everytime with Cardiotrainer and I can export those workouts to an GPX or KML file. Is there a program were I can import the GPX or KML file and that program exports audio as "within 100 meters go left". A sort of GPS navigation but with audio export and the possibility to imort an GPX and/or KML file. It is necessary that the program can say it in audio and not only text because my Nexus One will be in my backpack.

Love the feature to invoke Speech-to-text on the android keyboard by pushing the microphone icon and saying your text message instead of writing it. However, I prefer the Samsung keyboard and swype over android keyboard for actual typing. is there a way to invoke speech-to-text on the other keyboards as well? Long-pressing the search Captivate button only invokes Google voice search.

Just got my new phone a week ago. The only thing that I don't like is, "Self, why didn't I get this earlier." Amazing!My first smart phone.Anyway, I write because I have found some speech recognition software, but it seems to only come on sometimes for replies to text.What apps and internal speech technologies are available to speak new text messages?

I am running DC 2.8.1 and love using the speech to text feature which is available everywhere there is a keyboard input. A friend of mine just downloaded the HTC 2.1 update and I noticed that he does not have this option. Was this removed from the final upgrade or is there a way to add it on to a stock Hero?
