Voice Texting works on this phone?

[twilk]

I talk rather slow and more or less like a robot and it seems to work well. Its really important to speak clearly with no slang lol. It is pretty accurate. In the car with the windows down I have to yell at it and even then sometimes it doesnt pick up anything.

Swype is way more important then voice to text. This phone is pretty imposible to type on without swype if you are coming from a TP2 or something similar. However if you get Swype the voice key gets lost and you have to hold down the text area to switch back to the stock keyboard. The Swype beta when release should have the voice key on it. I am not saying it will I am saying Swype needs to get smart and but it on it.

Well, since you're are talking about texting you are just in luck my friend! Everyone who has an EVO (and an ear) please use the voicemail app! This app lets you send a voicemail to any phone that can receive voicemail.......its really close to push-to-talk!

Just hit the "all apps" button and navigate to the icon that says "voicemail" all the way at the bottom! Once in there hit "menu" then hit "compose!" Select a number from your contacts or manually put it in.......then you can record a 2 minutes voice message and send it to whoever yo choose to!

The receiver will get a text that has a number and once hey click on the number they can hear the message....and reply back without even calling they're voicemail!

EVERYONE SHOULD TRY IT OUT.........ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE EVOS!

I use the speech to text feature all the time. Its pretty acurate and also incorporates some slang like "gonna," "imma," "wussup," etc.

thats what TikL is for... it actually is a push to talk... free in the marketplace, and much more efficient.

You mentioned PTT...Have you seen the thread I have over in the Software/Mod forum? There is PTT available on Sprint Android. Amazing stuff. Works perfectly!!

Voice to text works wonderfully.

I try it every now and then but I often have to make corrections.

The swype beta does not have the mic icon on it for voice text. I hope the final version will atleast have that option. I like swype, but when your driving down the road it is nice to use the voice text option..

im not a swype fan myself i think it sucks and just slows me down..coming from a hardware keyboard phone i actually think the EVO is pretty good but I always replace the HTC keyboard with a AOSP one depending on the ROM.

Now I can tell you that with the froyo aosp keyboard you can turn off the cuss word filter which is nice..

It is a generic/general warning, since you have to consider it has to capture your typing/swypes to figure out what you're trying to type...
