I'am developing an app for android that uses TTS.

I've created a splash screen where i check if TTS engine is installed and 
in case that is not installed, it goes to Google Play to download it.

@Overrideprotected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);...
    Intent checkIntent = new Intent();
    checkIntent.setAction(TextToSpeech.Engine.ACTION_CHECK_TTS_DATA);
    startActivityForResult(checkIntent, 
MY_DATA_CHECK_CODE);...}@Overrideprotected void onActivityResult(int 
requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {...
    if (requestCode== PersonalTextToSpeech.MY_DATA_CHECK_CODE){
    if (resultCode== TextToSpeech.Engine.CHECK_VOICE_DATA_PASS)
    {
        mTts = new TextToSpeech(context, this);
    }else
    {
            Intent installIntent = new Intent();
            
installIntent.setAction(TextToSpeech.Engine.ACTION_INSTALL_TTS_DATA);
            context.startActivity(installIntent);
    }} }

It was working fine in Samsung devices with 2.2 and 2.3.x OS. It goes to 
Google Play if needed, but now I've tried with a Samsung Galaxy S3 (with 
4.1.1), and it has 2 TTS installed by default (Samsung and Google), so i 
get a dialog asking to select one.

If the user selects Samsung it works perfect, but if the user selects 
Google, it goes to Settings --> Language and input --> Text-to-speech 
output --> Google Text-to-speech Engine --> Settings --> Install Voice Data 
and i get this: [image: TTS Languages installed]

So, I have 3 questions/problems:

1- Is there any way to force programatically to use Samsung TTS without 
asking?

2- My device is from Spain, but if i change the language to English, this 
one is not available in my Google list of TTS languages, and i can't find a 
way to add it (see screenshot #2).

3- If I change the language to spanish, this language is supposed to be 
installed in my device (see screenshot #2), but for some reason TTS 
resultCode is LANG_NOT_SUPPORTED (-2).

In fact, right now while i write this, I've just found something weird.

If you choose Samsung, it will use Samsung TTS or Google TTS according to 
what you have selected in: Settings --> Language and input --> 
Text-to-speech output.

So, even if you select SamsungTTS, you could be using Google TTS, but if 
you select Google TTS directly (see Screenshot #1) it will fail.

Can someone explain me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for your help.
