Best BT headset for use with MS voice command using wizard

I'm fed up! currently using an Ericsson HBH-662 with it, and it's crap!!! I can only use the headset to activate the voice command once. Clicking the headset button does not release the channel. Consequently when I try and start MS Voice again I just get a dull click in the ericsson earpiece and it will not activate the headset.
Can anyone recommend a headset that is working well with the voice command hack.
thanks.

Is MS Upgrading Voice Command
I had exactly the same problem, I followed the instructions to get MS Voice Command to activate via the headset, then I couldn't disconnect. So I gave up.
I'm waiting for MS to release an upgrade that works properly with BT

It is a problem with VC not the headset. Note that VC isn't designed to do what we are trying. It requires a reg hack to even implement it. Hopefully it'll change, but a new headset likely won't help.

Prophet Bluetooth voice dailling

My "old" P800 was able to announce who was calling in my Bluetooth headset. After pushing a button on my Bluetooth headset I was able to do voice dialling. It could even pick up the call without pushing a button on Bluetooth headset.
Can wm 2005 on the Prophet do all this?

I have this working on my Jamin without any hacks

Care to share how? I just got a JAMin. No mention of voice dial except by launching program and certainly no mention of BT button. Pairs with my Plantronics M3000 fine but BT button doeas nothing. Any ideas?
Regards

Query to Wardy about Bluetooth Headset & Voice command
Hi Wardy does your Jamin let you control MS Voice command using the button on the BT headset? Or do you have to press the voice command button on the PDA and then talk through the headset?

Voice Command, once it is installed on the Prophet, works just like it did on the Magician. However, the Prophet (at least in Jamin flavor) has an app that lets you create voice tags to control most of it's functions, and this app can be started by using the button on your bluetooth headset (and accepts audio from your bluetooth headset). There are a few limitations, though: you have to create a voice tag for every single item that you want it to launch... and you can't create a voice tag for Voice Command :?. In other words, it is (as far as I'm concerned) completely worthless :evil:

Hi no sorry I am using the supplied voice command software. Its not a problem for me putting voise dial numbers in and I believe it gives better recognition than text to speach. But that's my view

Bluetooth voice dialing doesn't work on US TMo MDA

I just got this device, and I'm mostly pleased with it after applying various tweaks thanks to the fine people on this board. One problem I'm having though, is I am not able to voice dial contacts using my bluetooth headset. I have a Plantronics M3500 paired up with the device using hands-free profile, however pressing the button on the headset doesn't do anything to the MDA no matter if it is on or in standby mode. I saw messages on here that other people have this working, but so far, I haven't been able to. Is there something special that needs to be done? It worked fine for me on my Sony Ericsson P900 phone. Any suggestions are welcome. TIA.

Nevermind....
Uh... sorry just figured it out. It does work, but differently from my P900. I used to just press the button on the bluetooth headset, but with the Wizard, I have the hold down the button for a couple of seconds. Perhaps something to do with the hands-free vs. headset profile.

Are you using the stock voice dialer or Voice Command? I have been trying to find a way to activate Voice Command via the bluetooth headset button, without any success.

No, I'm just using the stock voice dialer. The headset is paired up with the MDA using the hands-free profile. When I press the button on the bluetooth headset and hold it for 2 seconds, I hear a litte tone and the MDA 'wakes up'. As I said in the message above, with my Sony Ericsson P900 phone, I used to just have to click the button, and the phone would go into voice dial. I'm guessing that the difference may be due to using the hands-free profile vs. the headset profile that was used with the P900.

Follow these directions, works great...
Install Voice Command to the default location.
Fire up a registry editor
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand
Modify the string marked "path" from the default \Windows\SDDialer.exe to \Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe
Now, when you press your BT headset connect button, MS Voice command will fire up and take commands through the headset. It's reponses will be played through the headset too.

Yeah, what Dustoff said. The other thing to remember (I learned it from these forums) is that you need to press the headset button twice to fully disconnect from the MDA. The first click disconnects from Voice Command, the second click disconnects from the audio gateway.

microsoft voice command and bluetooth headset
I need help getting the microsoft voice command software to work through a bluetooth headset. I used the instruction provided via Bits Inside Registry Editor to change the command on my handheld, but was unsuccessful. My blueangel has the latest rom and ext rom updates via the standardization project, and the headset is a Motorola HS820
Please assist,
thanks

The keyword in your request is BlueAngel. This registry hack is for the wizard only. I am not familiar with how to do it for the BA.
Sorry...

sorry, i saw the info, got excited and didn't notice the type of phone listed.
thanks,

Possible Solution for Voice Command and Non Working Headsets

Hi,
I'm no developer so I don't know if this would work but if there is a developer out there with spare time and knowledge of the Bluetooth Stack, maybe they can confirm if this is possible and even write something.
Headsets like the Motorla H700 and the Jabra J10 seem to lose the ability to activate Microsofts Voice Command after the first call. I notice that if I run Cyberon's Speed Dial after this happens, Voice Command activates when the headset button is pushed.
Cyberon's Speed Dial is obviously resetting the connection or something. So wouldn't it be possible to write a small wrapper that would reset the connection to the headset and then launch Voice Command. This utility could be set in the registry for Voice Dialing and it would reset and launch Voice Command.
If this works it would make a lot more bluetooth headsets useable with Voice Command.
Just a thought (as dumb as it may be

Hi,
Search the forum..there is a solution with A2dp and the compatible BT headsets.

I searched didn't see it, if there is a solution, can someone point me to the solution or thread.

Bluetooth headset and Tytn...

I posted the same on Howard-Forums but no reply :-(
Is there any specific profile that the bluetooth headset needs to support in order to use it with Microsoft Voice Command ?
I have an iTech R35 Clip bluetooth headset. The headset supports Hands Free, Headset and Wireless Stereo.
When I set it as Hands Free, wneh I receive a call I can hear on the headset who is calling but I can not answer the phone using the button on the headset (it does not do anything). When I set it as Headset, I can answer the phone but voice command does not announce who is calling.
Using both settings (Hands Free or Headset), when the phone is idle, pressing the button on the headset will activate voice command BUT I can only use the phone's mic to enter commands (it does not accepts commands using the headset's mic).
I have done all the registry hacks to de-activate the SDDialer and activate Microsoft's Voice Command.
So some questions:
- Anyone with the iTech R35 out there that successfully is using this headset with Tytn and Microsoft Voice command with the ability to "speak" commands on the headset's mic ???
- Anyone out there with any other stereo bluetooth headset (preferably with ear buds) that successfully is using MS Voice Command with their headset (including the ability to "speak" commands using the headset's mic)?

Read the wiki!
There tends to be no reply here if the subject has been covered thoroughly in the wiki. If you take a look at the TyTN wiki here: http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Hermes_Utils at the section marked Use MS Voice Command instead of the built-in Cyberon Voice Dialer and the corresponding forum thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=59541 then you should find answers to most of your questions and more.

Have you tried the Cyberon Voice Commander program from the Dopod extended rom? I think MS Voice Command can be picky about headsets; i am using the full Cyberon prog with a Nokia HS-12W A2DP headset and just picked up a V-3 BTH8 headset and both work no problem with my TyTN for voice dialling and starting programs. It differs from VC in some functionality but for voice dialling they are basically the same.
