Project VCABT - Voice Command Activation over Bluetooth

UPDATED 11/12/05
Just to clarify. This patch enables you to launch Voice Command (or any other app) by pressing your bluetooth headset button. It DOES NOT transfer sytem audio to the headset OR allow you to issues Voice commands via the headset. Its still a top peice of work tho ;-)
Some people also have an issue where the BT headset audio receiver will stay on indefinitely using up its battery unless you place a call or turn it off.
I dont get this issue. YMMV!

Dear all.
There is now a working hack to allow voice dial activation from a bluetooth headset.
NOTES
1. This hack DOES NOT transfer system audio to the headset via bluetooth. That is still being worked on.
2. This hack only works on the HTC Magician.
To date it has worked on all Magician types including:
iMate Jam
Qtek S100 S110
MDA Compact
Orange M500
VPA Compact
XDA MINI
Instructions:
Download the zip and install the cab file to enable the hack. Thats it!
Note:
The cab file will place a copy of voicecmd.exe in /windows and rename it to Voice Signal Launcher.exe
If you use another voice activation program you will have to copy the .exe, put it in /windows and rename it to Voice Signal Launcher.exe
If you have any questions not covered here please ask them in the thread and somewill help

Original post below:
Hi,
I am making a new thread for all discussion related to getting voice command working over bluetooth, i.e you push the button on your headset and the Voice Command activates.
This functionality has been achieved on the Eten M500, which uses the M$ bluetooth stack
See
http://translate.google.com/transla...&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&prev=/language_tools
Stack the Bluetooth implemented in the Eten M500 has been realized from the same Eten on the base of stack the Microsoft.
The society has enriched it, and this is now in a position to offering the following profiles: Service Discovery, Headset and Hands-free, Dial-up, Object Exchange, Generic Access, Serial Port and Gateway-audio.
This last one is of great importance, since beyond guaranteeing I listen of the sounds of system or the reproduced MP3 in cap (optional), allows the operation of the application Voice Commander (about which we will speak in the next page), concurring to directly command the device from a Bluetooth earpiece.
E' instead absent profile PAN (Person Network Area), that it would have allowed the device to approach Internet in presneza of points of Bluetooth access.

We need a dump of the Eten M500 rom, and then we need someone with more braincells than me ;-) to extract the Bluetooth stack....
Is this possible / doable?

Yess please!!! That's what we've been waiting for the whole time!!!

Let's make it work, ppl!
Did you notice if your JAM is in sleep mode pusing button on the headset actually wakes it up? At least, that what happenes with my Bluespoon AX, also it supports last number dialing by pressing volume buttom fro more that 2 sec. It prooves that JAM understands keypresses on the headset! Even on pre-production MPX unit it worked with MS stack!

Did the MPX have the M$ stack?
It may be easier to get a rom dump of that rather than the ETEN,
IIRC it was only the pre production MPX's that enabled VC over BT?
Does anyone here own a Pre ProMPX or an Eten 500?

There are many people on HowardForums that have both phones.
The hard part is to get them to do it.

i can hang up a call with my scala500 bluetooth headset, it just will not answer.....

From what I can see on this translated page, ETEN has a bit more advanced bt stack than JAM. I am not sure, if that is MS newer stack or ETEN's customized stack. Either way, I want it.

as far as I know.. the BT stack used by E-Ten 500 is made by the same company that made the device....
I hope we can get this to work.... :wink: it's very nice to have something more advanced the stupid M$ BT stack...

Hello guys.I have an .exe file that is a firmware upgrade for Eten P700 that probably have the same bt stak that M500,because it is using voice command 1.5 from Cyberon.
If any one want to try to play with that .exe i can upload it to somewhere.

Can you upload it please to XDA-DEV ftp site?

Cyberon's Voice Commander is different from Microsoft Voice Command. Can anyone confirm that it's Voice Command from Microsoft that even supports this feature at all?

contribuition
I have a QTEK9090 but i think this happens in all models, so it could work on all models:
with the bluetooth headset ON, if you press ANSWER on the headset, if wakes the phone and you hear kind of a phoneline noise. I know the QTEK can't send/receive sound to/from bluetooth if its is not in a call (BT3900). What we have to try, is to build a program that accepts signal from the phoneline, like it would try to make a phone call so that bluetooth comunication is ON, and then listen to the micro to get the voice dialer message. Instead of trying to make the QTEK send/receive normal audio thruw BT, why not make a program that access the phone line to send/receive audio? the quality is not the same, but we could shurelly could voice dial at least.
I'm not a PPC programmer, but i've done some programs in other languages, so I have a programmer mind Hope this helps someone who knows how to program for this device.

Where there are several ETEN 500 owners ready to help.
To reiterate, the plan is to find a way to dump the ETEN ROM, and then have a look and try to work out how they enriched the M$ BT stack to allow Voice Command to work over Bluetooth.
Many thanks.

I have n eten M500. Jus tell me what exactly i haveta do and i will do all that i can.

Can you dump out a copy of the bluetooth stack?
I'm not an expert...mm...hope some one can give you the right advice!
I dunno if there is a way to put in a cab the installation..however do exist something like an upgrade? I mean on the Eten cd there is something like a bluetooth upgrade or something helpfull?
Hoping someone can direct this hack.
Come on, we've got a chance! There's a user who want to help us...

Howto self activate BT on incoming call?

Hello!
I want to know if there is any solution to activate Bluetooth on incoming call and deactivate when finished.
Thanks for your reply

Pocket Bluetooth Tools or the latest beta of Pocket Zen Phone - both work.

I saw on this forum that pocket BT tools doesn't work. Because M$ stack
Or is there a new solution to make it work.

You didn't say your device.
Works fine on my XdaII (1.60 ROM with MS stack). Backup, try it, roll back if necessary. Or use PZP.

One would assume that since it's in the Magician forum, that's the device he was talking about. 8)

Erm... ah... well...
D'Oh!
What I meant was the OS/ROM version (by implication) but, yeah, it didn't quite make it, huh?

Does anyone know if pocket bluetooth work with xds iis? I tried to install it but oncall bluetooth activation didn't work.

Oh yes sorry.. my system is an SPV M500/Qtek S100/Magician My ROM is 1.12.02 FRE, Radio is 1.12.10, and no more EXTRom.
Some pople want to try with Bluesoleil BT Stack, but nobody is sure of this hack. What is PZP?
Thanks
Still not woking with Pocket Bluetooth tools.

PZP = Pocket Zen Phone. Search here in the xda-dev forums.

DKToday does this and is a wicked little app.

anyone use DKToday with xda iis?

WM5 Bluetooth stack and DialUp Networking (DUN)

I'm at my wits end with my T-Mobile MDA (aka HTC Wizard) and my new 2007 Acura RDX. The car can connect to the Internet via a Bluetooth phone to send/receive diagnostic messages to Acura, but I'm pretty sure the MS Bluetooth stack is disconnecting during the setup. I'm able to pair the HTC Wizard just fine with the car, and the handsfree functionality for sending/receiving voice calls works perfectly using the JETWare mobile Bluetooth extension on the phone. I've tried doing some basic registry tweaks in the HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Bluetooth keys, but nothing helped. I can use my Sony Ericsson T68i phone just fine with this troublesome feature, but I really don't want to start using my old phone again. Any thoughts on what might be fubared with the DUN connectivity? I'm using the same dial strings too that work just fine on my laptop with the MDA (*99#) on T-Mobile's network. Thanks in advance for suggestions...

While I don't have specific info on your car, you may want to give a try to the
1, Widcomm BT stack (instead of the MS one)
2, AKU3 and BT PAN if your car also supports PAN and not just DUN.
Please check out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=282780 on the latter q.

Thanks for the reply. I've had older Pocket PC/Windows CE devices that used Widcomm, but I was under the impression that the MS Bluetooth stack was baked into the device ROM. Do I have to reflash the HTC Wizard ROM to get the Widcomm BT stack?
RE: option #2, I'm nearly certain that the car does not support PAN, but I'll dig around and see what I can find.
Thanks again.

Hmm... I just found this wiki page:
http://maemo.org/maemowiki/BluetoothDUN
which mentions Bluetooth DUN problems on the Samsung SGH-X820, which I believe is using WM5 or similar variant. At any rate, it mentions a "receive all" flag, and I'd love to know if there's a registry setting in WM5 that's related to this suggestion.

nope, just install the Widcomm BT stack, not even a hard reset is needed - see the sticky thread.

Thanks again for the prompt reply. I followed the How To here:

and I also used SolSie's installation guide here to fill in some gaps:

Bluetooth functionality seems to working ok, but I don't see Dialup Networking as a service now on my HTC Wizard. Do I need to upgrade the AKU ROM? I'm using the summer 06 ROM update from T-Mobile USA right now. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

You're right - just tested this on my Wizard. No DUN service is visible- actually, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\BtConfig\Services doesn't contain any DUN service listed.
I'll tomorrow check this on my other 1.7 WM5 Widcomm-based Pocket PC's (hx4700, x51v) to see whether you can import this functionality in any way. My WM2003 iPAQ 2210 and WM2003SE PL720 lists this service; from the former (I only have this here at home in addition to my Wizard; the rest are all at work) a direct HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Widcomm\BtConfig\Services\ and [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\Services\00001103-0000-1000-8000-00805F9B34FB] didn't work though.

From what I've read on other sporadic posts, it seems that the Windows Mobile registry has a setting for enabling a "receive all" parameter for Bluetooth that fixes DUN problems. I'm sure there's a bit of a security risk in that, but I'm willing to try anything at this point.

You mean the standard BT / IrDA receive all? It's not dangerous at all - and, for that matter, it doesn't even add much to the overall power consumption, contrary the popular belief (see my related power consumption measurements)

Thanks for the reply. I read your post(s) on power consumption--excellent stuff. I can see options for IR ("Receive all incoming connections"), but not for Bluetooth, other than the discoverable option. Is there some registry parameter? That's what I'm looking--if DUN is failing during a PPP connection because a some weird rejection command, I'd like to see if there's anything I can try out to work around that.

The "Recieve incoming beams / Recieve Incoming Connections" in the IR menu in also responsible for BT file recieves. In addition to enabling the BT discoverable option, you need this to be turned on to accept file tranfers. I'm not sure about how this is going to effect DUN, but give it a shot.
This is prolly what you might have read in one of those posts that you mentioned.

BTW, the DUN service will not be offered even with the Beam Receive option enabled.
This may mean, currently, unless someone invents a way to access DUN under Widcomm, it's impossible to use Widcomm-based WM5 PPC PE devices as external dial-up modems.

Hm...
I know this is kinda off topic of DUN, but using the Axim Widcomm stack on my 8125, I loose all sound from the speaker.... anyone else encounter this?

Yes I have this problem too, can be solved just by calling someone... but then there are other problems...
1)Memory leak after turning off Bluetooth.
2)Only solution is to leave it on, but there are other issues here, for me, so far, it is my Wizard hangs(require soft reset button) or the sound of the speakers dissappears and gets redirected to the phone speaker only... after about a days use..

Hm.... well.... suck. I wish someone released a custom ROM without the MS stack

TyTN +BT-handsfree, Nokia BH801

Hi, I have a question if anyone here has tried to get the TyTN and Nokia´s new BT-handsfree BH801 to work?
TyTN finds and connects to the BH801, but they dont seem to work.
It all seems to work correct, activationcode is filled in, use as hansfree is activated.
Anyone got a solution??
Thanx!

By the way, NOKIA support says that the BH-801 only supports;
Bluetooth 2.0, 1.2 and 1.1 specification,
Handsfree 1.5 (HFP) and headset 1.1 (HSP) profiles.

I could not give you an answer to your problem, but can only let you that the Nokia HS-12W works great on the new AKU 3.3 ROM's. I have the WWE version on my TyTN and the only change I had to make was to activate the stereo setting in the A2DP registry.
Previously I had great deal of problems getting the same headset to work on the SA ROM 1.35. Bitpool changes in the registry as well as Sleuths A2DP fix were necessary.
By the way I have also had amazing results with the HTC BH S100 Bluetooth stereo headset. The great thing about this device is that it allows the user the option to use their own favourite 3.5mm headset.
Regards

Hi, and thanks for your reply.
It´s seems a bit tricky to get it working, fiddeling in the program isnt something as I would prefer getting in to, as I´m a noob!
But can anyone see if the profiles that NOKIA demands is supported in TyTN?
And if so, how can I get there??
By the way, I have a swedish TyTN with following setup;
ROM-version: 1.18.263.2
ROM-datum: 07/22/06
Radioversion: 1.07.01.10
Protokollversion: 32.40.7010.02H
ExtROM-version: 1.18.263.104
Thanks!
