Is there a way to either
A) start the activity without opening up the GUI
B) start the VoiceRecognitionActivity behind my current activity, so the user does not notice?
Essentially, I’m not fond of how Voice Recognition disrupts the UX and would rather the user just see the words “listening” in my activity. Android’s a great OS and I think it deserves more beautiful apps!
I’m an Android newbie (as you can see from my question history) and very much appreciate your help.
No. There is no such concept in Android.

Bear in mind that what you want should be immaterial. What your users want is what matters.
You are welcome to attempt to use
SpeechRecognizerdirectly, though this is only possible on Android 2.2 and newer. On older versions of Android, you will have to settle for the standard voice recognition UI.
