VWPro Error in Lolipop.
« on: February 13, 2015, 01:39:57 PM »
I upgraded my android to lolipop and now I can't load VWPro. VW Free still works. Any ideas?

Cheers.

@Oktane -- One possible theory pops to mind. Maybe you could experiment with this (if you haven't yet).

Are you using any special TTS voices on your phone? A key difference between VW Pro and VW Free is the TTS function.

I've just been reading online that people are having TTS difficulties when they upgrade to Lollipop because Google has changed how TTS works. In particular, they've apparently withdrawn support for "high-quality" TTS voices, but when you upgrade the high-quality TTS voices are not automatically removed -- users need to manually clear the cache for each app that uses those TTS voices.

I don't know whether that's the cause, but clearing your cache for VWPro may help. Also, as you can see from the above thread, apparently Ivona voices simply aren't supported on Lollipop.
TIPS: POST VC VERSION #. Explain what you want VC to do. Say what you've tried & what happened, or post a video demo. Attach VC log. Link to instructions followed.  Post your command (xml)
