I have been refering to Android Speech Recognition as a service on Android 4.1 & 4.2 post to try and implement speech recognition in a service.
I guess I have got it right. On running in my device I am getting "Ready for Speech" toast message which I have declared inside onReadyForSpeech() function.
According to Hoan Nguyen the person who gave the ans for the above post, we can start speaking as soon as onReadyForSpeech() function is called.
My problem is I don't know how to get the speech which we are speaking and convert it to text and where to do it.
Does any one know how to do it? I know its a very lame question to ask but its my first time working with speech recognition. So please bear with me.
Any help on this is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
