Google maps voice? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

I had a epic touch 4g (sprint Galaxy SII) running a rom called "touched by an S4" so... I assume it was pretty close to sammys stock tw with some s4 stuff thrown in, but it didn't do this...
If I ask Google Now who's the president of the United States it'll tell me "Barack Obama blah blah". If I tell it to take me to Taco bell it'll say some stuff then switch to Google maps and use this HORRIBLE voice that's really tough to understand.
I've done a lot of googling and found where the setting should be, but... There isn't a Google default tts option.
Anyone know how to fix this? This is all I have

Look at the fifth post. You can download an HD voice from the Samsung app store, but you can't install Google's TTS right now (force closes). I'm not sure whose idea at Samsung it was to release such a terrible sounding TTS.

Links post here in XDA

Hello.
How can I contact a right moderator?
I would like to occasionally post a few Appz / Games with download link.
Of course, only if it is extremely good programs and is freeware.
I've seen that were left in this forum posted by me.
Would like to set these things in the future itself.
When I try to set something comes a message
me that a moderator must be enabled.
I post no spam
Best regards

Not so much a question or an answer...

So, I get updates from XDA via facebook and twitter, which is nice! The most recent one was about the iheartradio 3.0.3 app. There was a small thread and a link to the .apk for the app. Someone else had mentioned that they couldn't find the app in the market. So I went to the market on my PC36100 and I couldn't find it either. And then I remembered that the android market was now categorizing apps "not compatible" with particular devices. So, I went to the market via the web and there it was: iheartradio 3.0.3 - Not Compatible with my device! So, I went to the XDA thread to leave a little note about what I had found. WRONG! Because I have not posted 10 (threads, posts, replies?) I could not post to that particular "development thread". It's not a development thread, its an app notice, but I digress. I understand why XDA implemented this 10 post minimum, but it is a kind of a bummer. I don't post much on XDA because my knowledge of android is plebeian at best and the 10 post minimum doesn't help. I understand members, mods and devs are probably pretty tired of the vague, redundant and repetitive questions of the etiquette uninitiated and digitally uneducated masses... I'm just saying! [/RANT]
On the bright side, posting this increased your post count, and as of right now looks like you've broken the 10 post barrier. So, hooray, issue resolved!
i think the dev section is for roms only. u woulda got flamed bad. u coulda posted in the themes and apps section cuz u r talkin about an app

Search Sucks on XDA

I have yet to find anything I'm looking for by using the search function here on XDA. I use specific language in my search, usually looking to sideload apps or mods and every time I attempt to use the search function it NEVER produces the results I'm looking for. Maybe someone should kang Googles search algorithms or something because it just plain doesn't work...

What are you looking for? I've never really had any trouble.
Also, the search BOX at the top of the screen is actually a google one

This^^
If you're having problems with the search then maybe you just need some pointers on search terms.
It takes more time then it should, they need it fix it.
Editing myself now instead of having my post moderated or having to come back and edit it later.
Tell us what you're trying to search for...give us an example.
Personally, I think search works very well considering the sheer number of threads on the forums.
I have no problem with the search, as long as you use specific keywords.
^Agree use keywords to for you to search properly.
Agreed...searches are only effective as the keywords you use

missed search button
I do not have problems with search before.
May be I'm stupid, but today search button missed from all brousers (Chrome and IE).
How I can turn it back?
Hmmm..yea, it is missing. I'll speak with the server admin, see what's up.
I've not really had any problems with search on the site, search in the premium app seems to struggle though, maybe it's just me
Maybe the site needs a "server issues" page, since the same issue is getting reported over and over again. It would help people see what's a known issue and find out what's happening about it.

search button is still missed ....
They are having issues with the forum and search button. Look around there's like 100 threads that ask about the search button in the same section your posting in. Give then some time to square it away.:banghead:

Either that or the sites users need the ability to at least briefly glance at the titles of the first six or seven threads in a given section before posting yet another thread about how search is borked and they need to spam 12 posts to get it back....

If people could look at the top 3 threads in a forum, then we wouldn't need anything
@Idiots, please learn to read existing threads. They suggest it's not just you having the issue. Meaning we know about it, and it will be back as soon as possible.

Well maybe there should be an announcement somewhere indicating there are technical issues and some parts of the site are non-functional, then you wouldn't have "12" threads all about how there's no search button!

I can understand your frustration with people not reading, but I think your language is inappropriate for a senior mod, don't ya think?

I am pushing an announcement across the site right now, so that will be done in the next few minutes.
Regarding use of the word idiot, if someone will make a thread without their eye being drawn over the top 2 or 3 threads (all on topic of search), I stand by my statement these people highlight the need for Darwinian survival of the fittest...

Bot # 61, you're killing me god I told you the themes and apps section not the orginial development.
Enough with monkey business.
Look you are supposed to ask questions in the Q/A section not in the original development.
You only post in the original development only if you have a original ideas and your own work to a build.
Refer to the stickies in this evo 4G original development.

[Q] SVoice, Siri Proxy Equivalent Hack

Hey guys,
Ive tried to search on the site but didnt get any hits back.
Is there a way to hack SVoice, something of the order of Siri Proxy, so we can pre-program some commands?

Cant change the commands in S-Voice as far as i know but there are some pretty good alternatives like utter which have that functionality
Try Voice Answer from the play store, it's pricey (just under $4) but it has access to the largest databases outside the siri servers.
