Make a call using headset - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

On nokias, you can dial a number with the headset in by holding the call button down; after a few seconds u hear a beep. After this beep, you can say the naem of the contact, and it will begin to call the contact.
Is this possible on the Universal; ie. is there a way to launch the voice command program using the wired headset?
Thanks

Update to MS Voice command registry hack with SE662 headset

I changed the registry successfully and on my first attempt used the headset to activate MS VC. Trouble is once the call has ended it appears that the 'gateway' is not closed, therefore you cannot make another call via your headset button until the device is 'warm booted'.
Is there any fix out there that will address this problem. Does it have anything to do with the BT vs Widcomm stacks.
Thanks :?
I find if I hang up using the headset button (Scala 500), even if the other party has already cleared down, the audio gateway closes and the next press of the button on the H/S reacivates audio and fires up VC again.
Are you clearing the call from the h/s or just letting the other party clear down to release the call?

MS Voice issues with Bluetooth headset
to be honest I've not really noticed. At times I would clear first, others it would be the person I called.
All I know is once the call has cleared I'm left with an open 'gateway' If I restart the headset it's still 'open'. It's only when I soft reset that it clears the headset.
It could obviously be different across different headsets, but with the Scala, audio stays on after a VC command, and I need to press the button once to close it, and a second time to get the VC prompt back. Something like this...
Press...
<Mic Symbol>
"What is the battery level?"
"The battery level is 23%"
Press... (to close audio gateway)
Press...
<Mic Symbol>
After a call, I usually press the button just in case, and I don't recall it restarting the VC prompt, so I assume it's closing the audio gateway. Maybe it's just my timing and i'm closing it as we say "goodbye", so I always force the call to close down, even if the other party is doing the same?
There have been a few "VC doesn't work reliably" threads, so maybe it does, as long as the h/s behaves as MS expected. If you don't use the h/s, just the phone VC button and mic/speaker, is VC okay then?

That's the way it works for me with T-Mobile Vario & Jabber 250 HS.
What I would like to be able to do is disable the Jabbers own ring tone as it masks the incoming caller announcment, and I appear to get the
phones own ring tone played in the headset anyway.
Also is there any way to make just the voice louder?
I think the VC announcement voice is a normal system volume (system), and the phone call is the in-call volume (right) sliders on the volume dialogue that pops up when you tap the speaker icon on the today title bar. I don't know of a way to increase the VC annc over the ring tone.
I did find on my Qtek that there's a hidden system .wav file in /windows called LB.wav which appears as an alarm and is a really loud 'boing' sound. I copied it to /windows/loudboing.wav with Total Commander, removed the system/hidden flags and use that as an alert. I guess, in reverse, you could use a sound editor to reduce the level of the ring tone .wav file and then turn the system volume up so that the VC annc (if that's what you want to increase) is comparatively louder than the ring tone...

Program buttons on bluetooth headset

Does anyone know if this is possible? I want to make it so when I push a button on my headset it will activate MS voice command So I can tell it to make a call or play a song or what not.
I have a jabra 8040 and just have to hold the botton on the headset until I hear a second beep. about 1 sec later voice command turns on and allows you to do just that.

Pocket calls

Obviously the phone dials the last dialed number when the button on the headset is pressed twice. It bothers me, because I keep making pocket calls.
Does anyone know how to turn off the redial function by pressing the button on the headset twice?

[Q] Bluetooth Voice Dialing

Where can I find information on how to handsfree initiate a call from a bluetooth headset? My understanding is that Android 2.2 Froyo supports this. I have my Plantronics 975 headset synced and working, but can't get voice dial to initiate. Pressing the button on the headset just makes a beep, but doesn't do anything on the phone. Pressing the button twice redials the last number, but it did that on my old G1 with Android 1.6.
Is anyone using a Plantronics 975 with a G2? Does voice dialing work for you?
Thanks,
Tauren

No idea about the plantronics. With my headset (Sony DR-BT22), pressing the call button on the headset starts the voice dial app (audio through the headset) and a long-press performs a redial.
I figured it out and feel stupid now. But just in case someone else is having trouble, here's the answer...
* Hold down the main button for 2 seconds and voice dial starts (see http://bit.ly/bO0Gvo)
* Double press the main button and redial starts
* If bluetooth is not connected, single press the main button to connect.
* Not sure what a single press does if the connection is already established.
I never tried a long press because a really long press shuts the headset off. I didn't even think that there might be a "short long press" and a "long long press".
On my Moto H17 BT headset, it seems a single press on the button initiates the voice dialer on my G2, and a "short long press" redials.
