Universal, bluetooth handsfree set and Voice Command - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General

Hello everybody,
I have a question about the Universal in combination with an bluetooth handsfree set and Voice Command.
I looked long time around other topics but I couldn't find any solutions to my problem.
My problem is as follows:
I changed the registry to start Voice Command over the handsfree set button, this works well, and I hear the notification sound over the handsfree set, also. But I can talk what ever I want: Voice Command doesn't recognise any of my spooken commands. After the normal timeout , so if has nothing been recorced yet, Voice Command finished with the well known error sound, which also hearable over the handsfree set. Phoning doesn't make any problem. Everybody hears me and I hear everybody. So it seems that there is a problem with the microphone settings or so.
Has any body a solution or an hint, where I can search?
Thank you!
Best reagards

You need to have your Exec OPEN, or folded with tehscreen showing in portrait mode for the system to use voice command. It's an issue raised several times in these forums and so far there is no solution other than what i have mentioned.
I hope this helps.

Hello,
thank you for your answer.
But the universal is always in my car powered up and in portrait mode. I can hear the voice output and see the Voice Command icon. But Voice Command seems not to hear me....
If I use it without bluetooth I have no problems....

voice command activation by headset talk button

Hello, Anybody succeded in activating voice command by pushing on the standard talk button of the QTEK headset? i understand there is a solution for bluetooth devices, but i tried with the standard headset and apparently it doesn't work...i am using the fantastic 2.8 ROM....
i am also intresseted to do that.
Did anyone found a solution?
It seems that the standard "Talk" button on Qtek's headset is only good for picking up incomming calls. It is not similar to voice button on the device. I've desperatly searched for registry keys to change that.
Did anyone have any luck?
Thanks,
Rostylsav
This didn't work for me, but it's easy to roll back. Pasted from Howard Forum.

Now you should be able to activate Micrsoft Voice Command by pressing the connect button on your bluetooth headset. My Scala headset beeps twice when it's ready for the Voice Command. My husbands Motorola headset beeps once when it's ready for the Voice Command.
Then you can also enable your bluetooth headset to receive music and other sound from your MDA by running the tweak "Enable Bluetooth Receive" using the Registry Wizard Program.
@glee719: This paste you did is about using Bluetooth headset for voice-dial.
The question is about the standard headset that goes with the Wizard . . . .
afaik the push-button on the headset works similar to the 'hook' buttons (green & red). Those do not trigger voicecommand either . . . .

Sorry to tell, it is not working for me, if i create a shortcut with "\Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe", and click on it, the voice command will lunch, however, putting the path in the reg, soft reset, press on buletooth handset doesn't work, any idea ?
By the way, how can we Set the microphone gain on the Wizard ? and how can we set the voice command to talk more and more louder ???
Yeah i'm interested to know how to make full use of the given headset, as i use it to listen to mp3 alot. The 'talk' button looks useless other than answering calls, unlike the w800i headset.
@rookery, this is NOT about the BT headset to activate VoiceCommand
Oh Sorry, did you mean the 2.5mm handfree, I don't have it in hand, does it work by the changing the reg key ???
hi to All,
useless to say i already tried the registry change for BT, and it didn't work for the STANDARD headset that is connected through the 2.5 mm jack. maybe, it is simply not possible.....
Is there a key for Talk button in the registry?
Does anyone know if there is a key for "Talk" button function in the registry?
We know there is one for BT headsets, but what about the conventional headset which comes with the device?
Anyone figure this out yet????????
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.

How to make Voice Command respond on BT Headset Button ?

Hello,...
I am new here and thought you might help me with my little problem.
I allready searched the forum for that issue, but i did not find a real solution, so maybe someone can help me find a solution. Btw. please excuse my bad englisch, i am from Germany and really try my best.
Well, i have a german XDA Mini with BigStorage Rom 1.12.01 GER and Windows Mobile 2003.
I really have 2 problems now with the use of Microsoft Voice Command 1.5 and a Bluetooth Headset (not with Handsfree Profile).
My first Problem is, how can i make the Software response on pressing one of the 2 Headset Buttons. I really would like to initiate voice dialing with that so that i can leave the phone in my bag or whereever. I read something about a registry change, but i don't have that registry key, so maybe i need to install another software for that first.
If anybody could give me a easy to understand way to activate that, that would be really great.
My second Problem is, how can i use my BT Headset for the Audio Output. I can't hear the voice of Voice Command in the Earphone, it only plays on the XDA Mini itself. I downloaded a Bluetooth Stach Patch which gave me the option to stream audio to headset, abut my Headset isn't show in the list, and it does not work. I tried a Headset with Handsfree Profile from Plantronics (M3000), but it also did not show in the list. Can anyone help me with this ?
Well if could get this to work somehow that would be really really great...
Thanks in advance...
Thalys :?: :?:
Funny...I was researching this almost exactly as you were posting (research starting at XDA-Developers, of course!)
I found a rather distressing article at http://blogs.msdn.com/windowsmobile/archive/2006/02/03/524289.aspx that basically says that Microsoft Voice Command doesn't work over Bluetooth. HOWEVER, responses to the article reveal the registry hack to set Voice Command to the default Bluetooth dialer. It is:
HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path=\Program Files\Voice Command\voicecmd.exe
I tried this on my Cingular 8125 with Motorola H500. Have to press the button twice (a problem also documented in the responses), and recognition is reduced, but it works! Voice Command audio is also piped to my headset.

Well, thanks alot for this tip, but it doesen't work for me. I tried changig the value to the path where my Voice Command is installed, but it did not do anything.
I think this is because i don't have a voice dialing software at all istalled on my device. Maybe i need to install another software first to activate the bluetooth support itself and than change the path to the program.
I figured out that i can make a redial with my headset without installing any software, so maybe there is a way to change this option to start voicecmd.exe.
I looked over the registry to find the key where the redial is initiated, but can't fins anything.
Has anyone done something like that ? I guess this is the only way to use voice command with BT Headset...
For all your help, thanks in advance...
Thalys
Sorry for Doublepost, but i wanted to say that the activation is now possible with the VCABT Project hack. That works now perfectly.
The only thing i wonder about is, is the mic in the headset used to recognize the voice ? Sometimes it is like still the mic in the machine is used.
I now only need a way to transfer the system audio to my headset... is that possible somehow ???
Thanks ... Thalys
@Thalys: If you'd know how to use a forum in the first place this whole thread wouldn't exist at all! It's all answered in the thread regarding the VCABT project. Since you found out about it I wonder why are posting those kinda questions... :roll:
Ok, sorry for that thread, it can be closed...
I did not read all the thread and thought that maybe another way is possible.
I now will keep an eye on the VCABT Project Thread to see if there is news to get this working...
Thanks for all your support... please Close
Thalys
well, voice command automaticcaly pauses the music playback, if you push the VC-Button (Camera-Button at the moment), to listen what you have to say trough the microphone of the HEADSET! So we really need "only" a possibillity to use the Headset-Button instead of for example the camera button. Everything else works quite good. :roll:

BT voice command: Cyberon, MS voice command - solution!!!

Hi all!
I'm quite new to this forum and even though I've read every single post about the bluetooth issue obviously evident on the HTC TyTN and all the tweaks regarding disabling the cyberon speed dial in the registry and installing MS voice command and later on Cyberon Voice command, I never got the whole bluetooth voice command thing going perfectly, like many others I guess...
I could get the music playing trough my SE bluetooth headset, with all the controls working perfectly, and I could use the hardware button for voice dial, but the feedback of commands from the voice command program would never play up in the ear phones, even though it recorded my commands in the microphone and would actually call my contacts if I had the TyTN in front of me to time in and watch the top icon to see when the microphone would pop up after the keypress on my headset... Music would play perfectly but the voice command was never problemfree......
I finally uninstalled all voice command programs and went back to the included cyberon speed voice dial which works very well. I just record in my 20 or so contacts into Cyberon Speed dial and then get the connection seamlessly from my bluetooth headset and microphone when wanting to make a call with the headset!
I can listen to music all the way to uni and recieve calls and actually press the headsets voice command button and recieve + place perfect calls with the music commin back on right after my finished call!!!! FINALLY!! And I dont really mind recordin in, what like 20 names...
So to all newbs like me, don't tamper with all the registry hacks and dlls here and there, just record some contact names in cyberon speed dial and use ur favourite bluetooth supported media player (like pocket player or so, with some bluetooth enabling downloads) and enjoy true handsfree!!
PS. Sorry for the long post, and sorry if I'm repeating already given advice...

BT Headset, BT CarKit (XCarLink) and M$ Voice Command

I have had a Jabra BT Headset for a couple of years and it works well. I have recently purchased a XCarLink with BT and am now using this in my car instead of the headset. One thing that I liked about the headset was how it worked with M$ Voice Command - i.e. press the 'Talk' button and Voice Command would start and you could say 'call xxx' etc. With the XCarLink if I press the 'Talk' button this justs stops any music that was playing but doesn't start Voice Command.
Is there any tweak I can apply to get this behaviour?
Andy
More testing......
I have been doing some more testing with this as the Jabra BT headset stopped activating Voice Command...
Anyway I have tested a couple of different versions of Voice Command (1.6.19214 & the one from the Diamond 1.6.19581) and both behave the same. If A2DP Joint Stereo is enabled (HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A2DP\Settings - UseJointStereo=1) then the 'Talk' button on the BT headset no longer activates Voice Command. If Joint Stereo is disabled the 'Talk' button activates Voice Command (after a soft-reset).
I haven't had time to check the behaviour with the XCarLink but I will post the results when I do.
If anyone has any experience with this or knows a fix then I'd appreciate it.
Andy
Anyone been able to get voice dialling working from the Xcarlink? I just bought one and am having the same problems.
