Functional Siri Without A Proxy Server or 4S Keys With AssistantServer Installer
 |
| Fully Functional Siri |
AssistantServer Installer uses Google‘s speech to text feature to detect what you are saying and then give a response. This isn’t the full siri and doesn’t have as many features but is still a really good alternative.
Setting it up:
1. Install Spire from cydia.
2. Enter the following address in the Spire settings: http://127.0.0.1:4443
3. Purchase and install AssistantServer Installer from the MacCiti repo.
4. Go to settings>SiriServer and enter your API keys or use the links at the bottom to get some
(The first 3 are the most important). Then tap the “Update API keys” button.
5. Enable Siri in Settings>General>Siri.
6. Set the language to either English (US) or German. The other ones don’t work at the moment.
7. Go back to the SiriServer settings and tap “Start Server” to enable the siri server.
6. Set the language to either English (US) or German. The other ones don’t work at the moment.
7. Go back to the SiriServer settings and tap “Start Server” to enable the siri server.
8. Use siri!
9. If the siri doesn’t work at this point then go back to siri settings, disable siri, then go back to SiriServer settings and tap “Remove Assistant plist”. Then enable siri and it should work (do this until it works).
9. If the siri doesn’t work at this point then go back to siri settings, disable siri, then go back to SiriServer settings and tap “Remove Assistant plist”. Then enable siri and it should work (do this until it works).
Remember to tap “Update Server” every few days to get the latest version of the siri server from GitHub.
This tweak doesn’t support all of siri’s features but it will work with all siri addons on cydia. The great thing with this is that it also works with siri’s dictation feature (works with all languages).
Overall this is a great alternative to siri and at $0.99 theres no doubt in my mind that you should buy it. But keeping the server running all the time may wear the battery down faster so if you want to avoid this issue then you can get a better version of the google API server here or buy access to a siri proxy server that will support all of siri’s features here.
