Trying to txt with voice actions

[pool_shark]

My voice commands work just fine and I don't use google contacts. I did do the voice learning though.

There's a voice learning thing on this? This is news to me, I can't find it. I see voice recognizer settings but nothing to teach the Droid your voice.

Hook, I didn't know that either...

Yep.
Menu - settings - voice input & output - voice recognizer settings

It has you go through a series of phrases. It isn't exactly the type where it trains it to hear words the way you say them specifically but it's very similar.

Voice action won't recognize contact names

Same problem here. Turns out my contact list from backup assistant would not sync with Google contact list. Voice action apparently only looks at Google contact list. Found this fix on another forum:

1- Open contacts
2- Manage accounts
3- Import/Export - EXPORT to SD Card
4- Import/Export - IMPORT same file from SD Card to Google group

That did it... works great now!
