I am trying to get TTS working, but i miss something.
The TTS from google (com.google.android.tts) works. Install app,
download the language-file, ready. But it is also faulty. After
a while it stops working, i have to reenable it. And so on. Whatever,
it was only for testing, dont want to use it longterm.
But not with ivona. The voice(s) wouldnt be found. hmm.
On my android phone everythings working with this setup. I have to put
the voices in the phone-storage (Android/obb)
But here, i am trying since hours, didnt work. You see logcat (E) - the
voice could not be found. Right, same in the settings, no voices available.
So, where is in aliendalvik the “right” place? I tried a lot.
Somebody here has this up and runnig with ivonaTTS?
parts of my logcat here:
I TextToSpeech: Sucessfully bound to com.ivona.tts

I am installing ivonaTTS and ivonaVoiceMarlene as an apk with the gui. When I start the app MarleneVoice it opens a windows and would download the language file. This this download isnt working, because the server doesnt exists anymore. So in the past, i put the language-files in Android/obb and everything was working. I mean, on my real Android-phone (S5 with Android11), not Sailfish.
I installed ivona.tts_1.0.0.0c.apk. Created the directory ivona in android_storage. Then i copied the deu.deu.marlene directory into the newly created ivona directory. The following files are in this directory:
The file lang_de_de.dat has to be renamed to lang_de_de_marlene.dat.
Open Android settings, got to System - Sprachen und Eingabe - Erweitert -Sprachausgabe. Selct Ivona TTS and click on the gear icon, this opens Ivona settings. Tap on Install voice data and see if it finds the files.
Thanks for your answer and description. My packages are a little bit newer than yours.
But i will try the other manual from the links, i have something more to read about now!
