I want to create application that uses offline Android's builtin voice recognition API. Does anyone have an example? I've tried to use RecognizerIntent API but it still requires internet. I've looked here: https://code.google.com/p/google-voice-typing-integration/. In file ActivityHelper.java they use RecognizerIntent API too.
Thank you!
I'm reasonably confident that offline speech recognition is a Google Voice Typing-only feature. Unless you install something that provides offline recognition APIs, the built-in recognition system will require an Internet connection.
you could use voice control without internet. Just seach "Voice control without internet".
It's a self assigned commands with the use of phoenetic alphabets.

I ve searched a lot but I did not any solution. If I try to download offline languages I did not see the Turkish language, And I try the Turkish words on it , it gives me back in English.
is there any way to do it in offline mode?
Windows Cognitive Services for speech recognition is work offline mode?
thanks in advance.
Unfortunately I don't think that's possible with Google's voice recognition services at this point.
You can see the list of languages that support offline voice recognition by navigating to:
Settings -> Language & Input -> Google voice typing -> Offline speech recognition.
Unfortunately Turkish (nor my native tongue Bulgarian) is supported there. On a side note though - offline dictionary is supported via Google Translate, so you can use that for offline translations.
You can try http://www.sestek.com/speech-recognition/
They support ASR on Android.
You do not achive this without internet with Google api.
You just wait Google updates.
Can someone please help me?
I am developing an application with voice recognition via RecognizerIntent.
Which Android version brought in officially the offline recognition available to apps by API? Is there any statement about it?
By what I read until know it is not a choice of the developer if the voice recognition will be done via online service or the offline dictionaries. Am I right? Or are there any documented API to set offline?
Thanks
Now there is offline voice recognition is possible for android 4.1. check this article

I am looking into a way to integrate limited-vocabulary speech recognition into my Android app (since Google Voice Search relies on Internet access which isn't always available to users).
I found a Nuance page enticing programmers to download NDEV or the "Dragon Mobile SDK" but if it requires Internet access just like Google Voice Search, why should I be even interested in it?
Unfortunately, Nuance's page is not very informative and requires you to register (and sign a dragonian agreement...) before you get a chance to spend time to download & play with the kit only to discover that it's not what you're looking for...
Do you happen to know whether the speech-recognition part of NDEV or he "Dragon Mobile SDK" require Internet access?
Do you know of any off-the-shelf SDK for Android that doesn't require Internet access (i.e. some limited-vocabulary speech recognition can be done locally on the Android device)?
Yes, NDEV does require Internet access. Their SDK is just an API wrapper + the UI with the microphone button (and the code necessary to capture the audio properly).
If you need local speech recognition, have a look at Sphinx, it's a great project.
On most phones (with hardware powerful enough) Google's own speech recognition can be set to work offline.
Simply go to Settings->Language and Input-> Voice Search -> Offline Speech Recognition
There you'll be able to download data for any language you need available offline.
Google has recently made great progress with their speech recognition software, which is used in several open source products, e.g. Chromium Web Speech and Android Handsfree texting. I would like to use their speech recognition as part of my server stack, however I can't find much about it.
Is the text recognition software available as a library or package? Or alternatively, can I call chromium from another program to transcribe some audio file to text?
The Web Speech API's are designed only to be used in the context of either Chrome or Android. There is a lot of work that goes on in the client so there is no public server to server API that would just take an audio file and process it.
If you search github you find tools such as https://gist.github.com/alotaiba/1730160 but I am pretty certain that this method of access is 100% not supported, endorsed or confirmed to keep working.
The method previously stated at https://gist.github.com/alotaiba/1730160 does work for me. I use it on a daily basis in my home automation programs. I use a python script to capture audio and determine what is useful audio or just noise, then it sends the little audio snippet to google and returns the text all under a second!! I have successfully integrated it into my programs and if you google around you will find even more people that have as well!
Is there any way I can make an app using jelly bean's offline speech recognition api & choose the sensitivity?
Actually I want to build an app, which tests user's English speaking & score.
If anyone can provide link to an app that currently does the same thing, that will be helpful too, because on that case I wouldn't need build an app to help myself
If you want an offline speech recognition on android, use Pocketsphinx:
