Help Voice to Text not working

Is there any noise reduction?

And are there 2 mics or not? There is the tiny hole by the camera, but I tested it while recording video and everything seems to be recorded from the bottom no matter what.

I did notice that if it's not too loud, then if I have it to voice recognition, and am quiet for 7 seconds, then speak, it sometimes picks it up. Speaking before that the little volume indication doesn't even budge.

It's a huge pain, in every situation I'd need to use this in, it doesn't work 90% of the time.

For those of you who said it does work for them, try it outside near a busy street and see if it still works for you there, and report back, please :)
 
Its an "Active noise cancellation with dedicated mic"

I wondered what that tiny whole was. I figured it was A. for the camera B. for the speaker.

When mine didnt want to pick up my voice it was in my car and i have a pretty loud exhaust so, i already tried it. When i came to a dead stop it worked.
 
It doesn't seem to be doing any type of noise cancellation from what I can tell. Maybe cricket skimped out on the second mic and it's still setup to want to use it rather than whatever else it perhaps did. Most shittier phones will work with some noise way beyond this one.

In a cricket store, I played with the demo phones and all of them picked it up better in the noisy store with music playing in the background. A second mic should make this better than every other phone :/
 
On my Huawei Ascend I had somehow turned off "data switch" it will be where gps,bluetooth,wi-fi,auto-rotate is.I turned it back on and it works fine now.
Hope this helps.
