Dear all,

I am currently evaluating STT (Speech to Text) feature on Gear S3, following the tutorial here.
I went as far as getting the stt_start to **almost** work, but I always get the STT_EROR_PERMISSION_DENIED.

What could be the problem? Do I need a special permission declared in the Manifest?
I have ticked all the permission settings available in the Manifest Editor and the error still persists.
Here are my privileges, what else do I miss?

Somebody earlier suggested that I should check whether STT is supported using this API call:  system_info_get_platform_bool("tizen.org/feature/speech.recognition", &stt);

I did the check, and found very interesting thing: this API call caused the Gear S3 to connect to my Galaxy S7 phone (my Gear S3 is the Wi-Fi version), to show the terms of use. However, I don’t  see anything on the phone, and afte a while but the Gear S3 shows the message “TOS has closed unexpectedly.”

Regardless of the above, the output from the “system_info_get_platform_bool” return 1, which I believe means “true” (so STT *is* supported).

Is there anything else I can try?
