Ah, Lost my Motorola HS-850 which worked fine with Voice Command, been going through a number of different units, the Jabra J10, Motorola H700 both great headsets except for the fact that they seem to mess up and stop working after a first phone call that started with Microsofts Voice Command. I think the problem is due to the fact that Voice Command doesn't close the bluetooth connection properly since the built in Voice Dialer seems to work.
Does anyone know if there is a versions of Voice Command (official or hacked) or any other way to get Voice Command to "behave more freiendly" with some of the Bluetooth headsets?
i got a jabra 250v and it works flawless heres what i do.. hit my button once and wait for the tone.. do w/e command i wanna do and let it go through then once the command is over with i hit the button again to close the connection so if u are doing a call this is the step i use.. push button once.. wait for tone.. say call erich. hit the button to finish call. wait 1sec then hit the button again to close the bluetooth connection ...works flawless for me
Jacob-mda: That what I used to do with my old Moto HS-850 and it worked perfectly.
Unfotunately this isn't the case with all bluetooth headsets, especially newer ones, I've gone through about 4 or 5. Voice Command doesn't break the connection since it doesn't support bluetooth directly and most of the newer headsets hang after the first call and the only way to get them back is to restart the device or run another program like cyberon speed dialer that resets the connection. Not sure why if it's a version difference in bluetooth implentation, or just some headsets are more forgiving.
Unless there is a way to get it working which I'm not aware of, we need some little utility that would do whatever cyberon speed dialer does to reset the connect and then launch Voice Command, this would make it work with a lot more (if not all) bluetooth headsets which would be great!
It's a shame, I'm caught up between deciding what I want more, a better headset and using cyberon speed dialer (with voice tags yuk) or going with a working headset with Voice Command.
Anyways, it would be great if someone could right something that would reset the connect and then launch voice command. It might not be perfect but I'm sure it would make a lot of people (including myself) with non compatible headsets very happy
ATT 8525, Stock ROM atm, had it for less then a week so far. Been playing with Ipaq's before for the last 6 years, it's nice to combine the usefulness and customization abilties of a WM PDA with a Phone.
My prev phone was a simple Moto V551 that I used for 3yrs. Last X-Mas, Wife got me a BT Headset (Plantronis BT320) that except for it's size I love it. With the Moto, when I connected them every day, I got a little "Beep-Boop-Beep" sound upon succesful connection of the headset with the Phone, and a visual one too. ("Plantronics XXXX has Successfully Connected!")
With my Hermes, it is dead silent. I mapped (with some great tweaks in here!) the PTT to start up the BT. I start it up, then startup the Headset. I never get any comfirmation, and unlike the Moto - if do things like dial a number, the sounds all come through the speaker and not the headset, and there is no visual comfimation of connection either. In the few calls I've received while driving since I got the Hermes, I do get them through the Headset, but I would sure like a comfirmation of the connection - audible/visual/both or either!!!
Does anyone know of a way (either a patch/cab or reg tweak) to get connection comfirmation / status?
I have looked / search pages and pages of posts - not found what I'm looking for, yet....Though I have seen a Cab that enable all sounds through the headset (and lose voice dialing - want voice soon!) but I don't think it does what I'm looking for anyway.
Thanks!
Id like to know as well
On the Phone Dialer screen, there is a little picture of a headset in the top right corner when the Bluetooth has a connection to a headset.
Hi everyone
I have Eten M700 with WM6 ..
I tryed couple of bluetooth headsets (regular, not stereo) and i was able to pair all OK & make and recieve calls
I was even able to divert all sounds to headset to listen to my music (using either btIO or Blue Music)
I also have MS voice commander 1.6 US & it works through bluetooth without problems
I still have one problem:
when i end a phone call (touching red screen dialpad button or by hardware button) or even by waiting for the person on the other line to hang up..then my headset disconnects (i do not see the headset icon on top right of dialpad) and on the next phone call i have to restart pairing by pressing the headst button (it should start automatically & not disconnect)
i do not have to enter pairing code but it is still one extra step that i did not have to do with other phones..also, i miss some calls because when it disconnects i may not hear my phone speaker ringing as i will be away or driving
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Any fix (software, cab or reg tweak) out there to keep the bluetooth headset connected and paired inbetween calls (not disengaging after a call ends)
Thanks
I have the same problem, though i use my DS-220 as a wireless stereo also , i have no problem using it as one or another (handsfree/stereo headset) but as soon as i'm listening to something and i answer a call, sometimes, the headset disconnects itself after a call and i also have to push the button on the headset to connect it again - but not every time, best solution to resolve this problem for 70% of occasions was to uninstall Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 which was messing up with the BT on my phone, since it uses the handsfree's talk/end button as it's own "engage" button, but still, sometimes, this error occurs
I was wondering, if someone of u has working BT Widcomm or any other better BT stack (better than the microsoft bull*hit) and would mind PMing me the link, I could try it out and see, if that's the solution
BT new fix needed
This dsconnection has been happening with me even before MS voice command installation
i did not notice difference with it installed, i am alble to make commands without bluetooth droping & i give my commands through the BT headset without any registry hacks (read something about people having to give commands through phone speaker not headset) i do not have that problem
my only issue is the dropped connection after finishing a phone conversation (by ending a call or other side ending it)
I need a good developer to fix that & also, maybe work on dr.Yar BT software that shows sender/reciepient ID and file progress. that software shows blank white pop-up window when recieving files from some devices.. maybe also add a clickable line to make BT discoverable or hidden to the menu list there
i use BT only for regular mono headset & file transfer, i route music to my mono headset with BlueMusic v2 sometimes too.
If these 2 issues are fixed im all set (droped with calls & ID/progress blank window in Dr.Yar)
Thanks for looking
nothing
no one has solution for this???
If I have a bluetooth device connected to my XV-6800, is there a setting or something I can do that will allow me to answer the phone with the call button on the phone, but have it connect to the bluetooth device? Right now if I hit the call button, it only goes through the phones speaker as if the bluetooth device was not connected. For me to answer a call using the bluetooth device, I have to hit the button on the bluetooth device.
Thanks,
Jeff
That's really strange. I know that I don't have the same phone as you (I have touch Elf). I have noticed this. When I have my device connected to bluetooth headset or my handsfree car kit, I can still hit the green call button to anser the phone when I get a call and the call is still transmitted to my bluetooth. I can even still make a call by hitting the green call button, dialing the number and still all through bluetooth.
It sounds like your device is not associating properly with the bluetooth device. Go into your bluetooth settings and check to make sure that you are connected properly for hands free - Go to settings - bluetooth and click on your device to make sure that hands free is checked.
I have also noticed that on a rare occasion, my bluetooth does not connect properly and although paired, does not transmit and sound did come through phone when it shouldn't have. To fix this, I did a soft reset and all was good. It happened to me about three times since I bought the phone in Dec 2007.

The bluetooth is properly connected. When I make a call and hit the green call button, it does go through the bluetooth device. It is only when answering a call it does not go through the bluetooth device when I hit the green call button. Yes, very strange. Oh well, I was hoping somebody might have some insight.

What radio and Windows ROM are you using? I know that some of the different ones fixed some BT issues. When my headset is connected it always goes to my headset no matter what I push. Sometimes I have it in my pocket and forget and then can't hear anything on the phone. I believe you can force it to go to your headset after answering the call though.

I am currently using DCD 3.2.6 with radio 3.37.75. To be honest I am not sure I have tried it with this combination. But, I have had the problem with a DCD rom, I just don't remember which radio.
My phone has always bypassed the bluetooth earpiece if I press the answer button on the phone and not the button on the earpiece. It did it from day one with the stock verizon rom and it still does it with my custom dcd rom.
I like the option of bypassing the earpiece to answer a call, especially in a crowd. Also I have the incoming calls announced thru the earpiece. This allows me to know who is calling without even looking at the phone or touching it to answer it thru the earpiece.
This is my insight on this. I hope this helps.
Are you using Voice Command? Is the sound very low?

Mine operates the same way. I don't beleive this is a "flaw", and may vary by type of bluetooth device being used. OP is looking for a way to override this setting / feature if anyone knows. Personally, I like the option of taking it on the phone for privacy reasons as my BT device is through the car speakers.

I agree, I don't necessarily think it is a flaw. I would prefer to have mine answer with the bluetooth if I hit the green call button. I was just wondering if there is a setting some where that I am overlooking to have it the way I would prefer.
I just tried it again with the DCD 3.2.6 and 3.37.75 radio. As has been mentioned above, it does not appear to be related to a rom or radio, it is a feature of the phone.
A friend of mine has an iphone, and when they get a phone with a bluetooth earpiece enabled, they get options on the screen which say answer, answer on phone, or ignore. Or something along those lines. I like having those options, but understand if it is not available on the 6800.
Thanks for all of the replies.

Hi All
I have installed the Poland 6.0.1 Rom on my Note 4 and everything seem to be working correctly
When I connect my phone to my Car (Ford Ranger 2016 model) its sync's correctly, downloads the phonebook and everything. I can even from the car make a call and it pushes it to the phone correctly as the phone initiates the call and connects the call when they pick up.
The problem is that there is no audio on the speakers. I can mid call select speaker (on the phone) and can then have a conversation with someone over speaker phone but when I push it back to Bluetooth there is no audio.
This worked 100% on 5.1.1 but since the update to 6.0.1 I cannot hear anything on the car speakers even though all the other functions work correctly.
Is this something that can be fixed?
Did you factory reset after upgrade?

Yes I did. I factory reset just now and tried using it without installing any apps. I can steam music fine. Its just when you make a call that there is no audio. Everything else seem to be working perfectly. I can scroll the address book I can choose and change music, I can place calls with the exception that there is no audio when on a call.....
Did you go to bluetooth settings

Yes I did and both Music and Phone is enabled for it.
I might have the same issue
Hi.
I think this is a general problem plaguing this update.
I have Plantronics E50 Headset. Worked great with 5.1.1.
I use headset as hands-free and usually place calls by holding button on headset for 2 seconds and then issuing voice command "call <contact name>".
This is not done via S Voice but via standard Google app voice.
Like said, all worked great, no issues in 5.1.1.
What I get now after the update to 6.0.1(also Poland 910C, yes, I wiped all after update, but still same behavior), is that I can place calls using the headset + Voice command ("call <contact name>") and I get two outcomes:
1. if phone is unlocked(even if screen is turned off), call is placed, I get audio in the Bluetooth headset - normal behavior.
2. if phone is locked(either auto-locked after timeout and screen off, or locked after pressing power button), call is placed after voice command, but audio remains on the phone and is not transferred to Bluetooth. I need to pick up the phone and talk from it, or press the "bluetooth" button on the dialer window.
Strange is that if I pick up the phone, while locked, and place a call using emergency/favorites contacts, I do get audio in the Bluetooth headset every time.
Problem is that hands free is not usable anymore, since you need to do something on the phone after placing the call.
I think that in your case, call being placed via car Bluetooth system, the thing should be the same.
What I can suggest is to try and see if this works in your case when phone is unlocked.
Anyway, Samsung screwed up something either related to the Phone app, or related to the lock-screen... or both
Solution would be to go back to 5.1.1 or wait for next update, hoping that Samsung fixes this...
Cheers!

Yes the same behavior on the Car audio system as you describe except that the audio system regardless of how the call originates from says "Privacy Mode Enabled" and you cannot hear anything or they hear you until you disable the Bluetooth or enable the speaker (that disconnects the Bluetooth)
I have downgraded to 5.1.1 official for my country and yesterday while driving home on the phone with my wife mid call it cut the voice and enabled "Privacy Mode". I could not call again or receive calls over the Car Audio and it persisted even after I rebooted the phone, Turned the radio on and off and even unpaired the phone and paired it again. The call regardless of where of how its made directly goes into "Privacy mode" and you cant disable it
I got home and turned the car off and on again and only when the audio system completely reset after pairing the phone again it could make calls from the phone and car without defaulting to the "Privacy Mode"
Dis is definitely a Android issue with the calling as its a feature in Android and not on the car audio. Music streaming works flawlessly that use the same Bluetooth connection. Its just on calls that it does this and at random
