SpeechRecognizer throws onError on the first listening

Question

In the Android 5 I faced with strange problem. The first call to the startListening of SpeechRecognizer results to the onError with error code 7 (ERROR_

Answer 1

I had the same problem on several devices. It seems onError(7) is always called before onReadyForSpeech(), so if to avoid using ugly times, you can do something like:

public void start(){
    performingSpeechSetup = true;
    speechRecognizer.startListening(intent);
}

and in the RecognitionListener:

public void onReadyForSpeech(Bundle bundle) {
    performingSpeechSetup = false;
}

@Override
public void onError(int error) {
    if (performingSpeechSetup && error == SpeechRecognizer.ERROR_NO_MATCH) return;
    // else handle error
}
