You can use this link, there is some useful information about text to speech.

  private void promptSpeechInput() {
    Intent intent = new Intent(RecognizerIntent.ACTION_RECOGNIZE_SPEECH);
    intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE_MODEL,
            RecognizerIntent.LANGUAGE_MODEL_FREE_FORM);
    intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_LANGUAGE, Locale.getDefault());
    intent.putExtra(RecognizerIntent.EXTRA_PROMPT,
            getString(R.string.speech_prompt));
    try {
        startActivityForResult(intent, REQ_CODE_SPEECH_INPUT);
    } catch (ActivityNotFoundException a) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),
                getString(R.string.speech_not_supported),
                Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

You can use the below code snippet to implement Text to Speech converter;

 public class MainActivity extends Activity {
 TextToSpeech t1;
 EditText ed1;     
 @Override
 protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
  super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
  setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

  ed1=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.editText);      
  t1=new TextToSpeech(getApplicationContext(), new TextToSpeech.OnInitListener() {
     @Override
     public void onInit(int status) {
        if(status != TextToSpeech.ERROR) {
           t1.setLanguage(Locale.UK);
        }
     }
  });


  String toSpeak = ed1.getText().toString();
  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), toSpeak,Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
  t1.speak(toSpeak, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null);

}

public void onPause(){
  if(t1 !=null){
     t1.stop();
     t1.shutdown();
  }
  super.onPause();
}
}

t1.speak(toSpeak, TextToSpeech.QUEUE_FLUSH, null); i have to change this line because i dont have any queue and my entry is not changed — Ghash Anjum, Sep 27 '16 at 10:50
