I've recently found a solution that allows speech to work on Android devices that doesn't involve writing additional code. I was able to get speech working both on my Note 8 phone and my Nvidia Shield. It involves using an android app called Termux (an Android terminal emulator and Linux environment app) and running eSpeak and the speech server within that. Right now it works with eSpeak, but I'm confident it will be a simple matter to use a native Android speech interface that is part of Termux to create a new engine backend. In the short term I hope to soon create and share an installer script that can be downloaded and installed easily from within Termux to make setup simpler.

Also, as stated in my last post, please file issues on GitHub (https://github.com/ruuk/service.xbmc.tts) about issues with Estuary (or whatever). Please file separate issues for multiple items where it makes sense, as this will make it easier for me to tackle items as time allows.
