Motorola Droid :: Voice Search To Play A Certain Song Or Musician
Nov 10, 2009
The Google Voice search is really helpful and thus far, I've had success getting Google search results, as well as using it to call contacts, handsfree.
I was wondering if its possible to use it to play music hands free. I see that there is an option for it under searchable items by going to Menu>Search>Searchable Items>Music, but I haven't been able to get any results by saying things like "play artist Radiohead" or just saying "Radiohead". It just brings up web search results.
Anyone know of a way to immediately prompt your music by using Voice Search?

This has been a rather annoying issue for quite a while. Whenever I use the commands like "Listen to (Artist or Song)" or "Play (Artist or Song)" it never seems to recognize it. Instead it just does web search of what I said, I'm not sure where the problem is in it though. I have Poweramp and Play Music installed with plenty of music on file.

I was just wondering if the Droid can handle voice commands such as "Play Music", "Party Shuffle", "Play (Artist)", "Play (Song)", "Play (Album)", "Open Email", "Play (Video)", etc, etc; or if there are plans for this in the future firmware? I personally could make use of this, especially "Play (Artist)". I tried to make it play a song and it called my grandma ):
Also, can anyone tell me the difference between voice search and voice dialer? It seems like when I use voice dialer, I say "Call Home" and a list of options pops up of who to call (one choice being Home) (When I wish it would have just automatically called Home), but if I use voice search it automatically does call Home.

This morning I was listening to RadioTime with my phone in my pocket with the screen off and 3 separate times the voice search was activated. As far as I know I didn't press anything while it was in my pocket, has anyone else had this problem or does anyone know what I can do to stop it because it is really annoying.

Ever since I rooted I can no longer use any voice search on my droid. It always tells me that its has to force close as soon as I click on the icon. Is this a known issue with bugless beast 1.2 that I just have to deal with? I love having my phone rooted but id rather have a fully functioning phone that a rooted phone.

I recently rooted and ROM'd. It used to work that when I held down the little magnifying glass in the lower right corner of my screen it would bring up a voice search that let me say pretty much anything... navigate to [here], call [this person]. It's stopped doing that. Now when I hold it down it brings up a little message saying "you haven't enabled quick compose, please enable it from handcent settings"

Just exchanged my droid for a new one 3 days ago, the first one I experienced crackling in the speakers after 3 weeks. Today is the first time I have tried the voice search on this phone and it force closes every single time. Any ideas?

Head anybody else been dealing with voice to text freezing a lot? It seems to freeze up about 30% of the time for me. It's not application specific, and, as far as I can tell, it's pretty much random.

When in car home and i try to do a voice search saying "call 'john doe', mobile phone" all it does is search google for what I said. I want to call a person using my voice through car home like the example they give you on the car home menu. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong, and why it gives you the option to "call ' john doe', mobile phone" if it doesn't work?

I have read and researched everything I can about this and it is pretty clear that one cannot activate or talk to Google Voice Search using a Bluetooth headset.
Voice Dialing works, but after using Voice Search, why do they even both having Voice Dialing? Voice Search is hugely more accurate and useful.
So my question: Is there an app that will make a Bluetooth headset work with Google Voice Search?

I installed Sholes Bitchin Bagels and it broke my GPS.
I used his updater app to GO BACK TO STOCK and I lost my search by voice.
I used Unroot & Back To Stock | Root Your Droid and still have no search by voice.
Does anyone know how I can get it back?

I was trying to use the voice search app, and now I cannot get it to work. Every time I open it I get a FC. Can't uninstall it, and it is the latest version. Not sure why it stopped working. Running CM6 with Slayher 1.1 and LauncherPro.

Is there anyway to switch the Voice Dialer application with the Voice Search application? I want to be able to activate Voice Search with a bluetooth headset, instead of Voice Dialer (so I can use navigation, google search, and all that jazz...handsfree).

I got the OTA 2.2 a day or so ago. I have discovered the app "voice searce" I then downloaded the app in the market. I then viewed the short intro and then I tried it out It took a while and I had to ask for help on this forum but finally I got it to sort of working. I decided to send a test text to my wife so I tapped on the app and once it loaded I said "send text to xxxxxxxxx" (my wife's name) "This is a test" After it read my voice I got a screen that looked like this to: xxxxxxxxxxxx (my wife's name as listed on my contact list)
message:This is a test I then tapped on the send button and then Sorry The application Voice Search(process.com.google.android.voicesearch) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I had tried this over and over again and I always get the same message.

I have 2.2 OTA on my DX and I have the Google Search widget on my home screen. If I do a voice search through that widget, the results come up in the stock browser. If I do a text search, the results come up in my default browser (Dolphin HD). How do I get voice results to open my default browser instead of the stock browser?

I am currently running the 2.2 Froyo leak on my Droid X, and I noticed that there is a Voice Search app in the Market that my phone does not recognize as being installed. Is this an updated version of the software included in the leak?

My voice search does a web search, but will not search contacts. I have contacts checked as a search able item and have cleared the cache. Neither has solved the problem. Any recommendations before I take the phone back to Verizon?

I'm wondering if anyone has been able to make Voice Search on the Droid launch the music player and play specific music. I went into "Settings", "Search", "Searchable items" under "Quick Search Box", and selected "Music Artists, albums, and tracks" so I think voice search can search the local device for music. Try as I may, I can't make search for music on the device. Admittedly, I'm used to the MS WinMo/Sync system where I can say something like "Play Artist Korn" (like in the commercial). I'm just wondering if I'm missing the "magic keywords" to make the voice search do what I want or am I just whistling dixie.This would come in VERY handy when the Droid is in the Car Dock (I HIGHLY recommend one of these btw.I just wish they'd integrated a power adapter with it.). That way, I can launch music via voice, and not plunk around with a very small icon on the screen.

The majority of my contacts have pictures associated with them. When I use Google Voice Search to call a contact (e.g. "Call Wendy Home" [my wife]), the contact is found and the number is dialed successfully, but the picture doesn't show on the screen (just the android image). However, if I look her up in contacts and make the call, or receive a call from her number, the contact image is displayed. Is there a setting that needs to be made to enable the contact picture when using voice search?

(Note I'm referring to the google Voice Search utility, not the Voice Dialer utlity)
So far: I've confirmed that 3 special voice commands work on my Droid X:
CODE:............
However, there are supposed to be more (from my research), but none of the following is working:
"Call <contact> mobile/work/home/etc" to call that contact
"Dial <number> " to dial the number
Has anyone discovered any other working voice commands?

So heres a random problem that started happening recently I used to be able to reboot my phone and it would work fine again, now I'm SOL. So my mic doesn't work when I make/recieve calls unless I turn on speakerphone. No one can hear me unless its in speaker mode. If I do a voice search, voice record, etc, nothing happens. The only way I can talk on my phone is if I'm on speaker phone. I've rebooted, tried inserting headphones into the headset jack and removing, etc. I guess my final step is to factory reset and see if that fixes it. Are there any known solutions? I did NOT change any configuration. Oh, and I should throw out there, that once in a blue moon it DOES work on regular phone. This is totally random.
