AC Question
Every time I voice text, my phone repeats the sentence or paragraph twice. Anyway to avoid this annoyance?
I think this is a bug in an android system update. My wife and I have Nexus 5x phones. She doesn't have the problem and I do. She has an outstanding android system update that she didn't apply. I applied mine a couple days ago when I think this started. I just applied a new update and that didn't fix mine.
The only thing that has worked has been turning on airplane mode.
I appear to have come up with a fix but I'm not exactly sure if I kept track of what I was doing because I was trying so many different things. But it appears that I uninstalled GBoard, the Google keyboard module. I went into Apps and did a force stop on GBoard. Then I disabled the app. It asked if I wanted to revert back to the factory program and I said yes. It appeared to uninstall the Gboard app. At this point I rebooted. When it was done I went to Play Store and reinstalled GBoard. My keyboard looks completely different now but my voice to text is working. In fact I dictated all of this and it does not seem to of had any problems at all.

This worked for me. Just disabled, force stop, enabled again, no reboot. Thanks!
Wow, judging by how many posts in this thread so far, it seems like a fairly widespread problem on Samsung phones. As has already been mentioned, the best thing to do is to uninstall updates to the Google app (just search for it on the Play Store and tap Uninstall, which will only uninstall updates), then wait until the next time it's updated. The only official way to know when it's been updated for your phone is to look at the Play Store app page for the Google app, and look at the date it was last updated. Or you could keep an eye on a thread like this, since someone will most likely announce that it's been updated and the bug fixed.
I would also strongly encourage all of you to open the Google app, tap Menu>Send Feedback, and inform Google about this problem. If a lot of people do it, they'll realize quickly what they did wrong and patch it.
Welcome to the forums. What device do you have?
So my Samsung S7 started repeating sentences and adding every variation of the word. For example test tests cast [Language redacted by Mod]....has anyone solved this yet on the S7?
