I have been using the speech recognition provides by Google in my android app, but when I try test it in a Kindle Fire, crash. Debugging I found that it was my fault because forgot check if recognition was available before start the service.
//Mental note: Check always the service before start it
if(SpeechRecognizer.isRecognitionAvailable(getApplicationContext())){
...
}else{
//Show a AlertDialog with the advise
}
With this check I discovered that Amazon didn't bring a speech recognition service (by now). After make a few Google search, I found this topic in Amazon developers forum with a similar question. Amazon answer was "Not now" but "Stay tuned in our blog". Finally the guy has integrated with Dragon Mobile SDK and it's work for him. I'm not interested in integrate another SDK (third part reason) but I would like to know if anyone found a "workaround" like install Google Apps or something while Amazon provides something.
Anyway if you are looking for some info about this, I hope this question bring you some light... :)
Thanks in advance.
Update:
I have tried to add Google Play Services with this How to, but it doesn't work.
