I've got a problem with Dopod 818 Pro's voice command software.
The software that is use is Cyberon VC 1.6, which is different from Jamin's Voice Speed Dial 1.1
Using Jamin's Voice Speed Dial 1.1 (I've flashed Jamin's rom), I can use bluetooth headset button to activate and dial very successfully every time.
However, when using Dopod's software (Cyberon VC 1.6), I can only activate the voice command once using my bluetooth headset's button. After that I cannot use it anymore and have to reboot the Dopod in order to make it work again. I noticed that after the headset is turned on, it never turns off again using this software.
I'm using a SC HBH-662, 818 Pro AKU2 WWE.
Do anyone experiences this problem? Is it a problem with my Headset instead of a software problem. (I'd need to consider replacing my bluetooth headset). If everyone is experiencing this problem with Dopod, then I think it is probably a software problem, or there are any registry setting that I can use to fix it?
I have noticed the same problem, though not everytime. It seems that if you use the software to dial a phone number, and then end the call, the headset shuts off and may or may not work again with voicecommand.
Anyway, yes, it's weird. I'm using a SE bluetooth headset as well, but I think it's software related.
Anyone not using Sony Ericsson bluetooth headset having the same problem? If yes, I think I'll just downgrade it back to imate rom.
Same Here!! I just loaded the new Dopod ROM and selected the few files from Ext ROM that I wanted and noticed that Cyberon Voice Commander worked once with the bluetooth headset (nxZen) then refused to work after that. Hopefully some genius here can help figure this out. Cyberon's VC seems really good, just need it to work over bluetooth.

Jabra headset same problem here.
AX2 and Plantronics Voyager same issue. I think it is similiar to the issue people are having with MS Voice Command on the Wizard using the Reg hack to redirect the BT Headset button to activate VC
I'm having the EXACT same problem, with the same headset (hbh662). Interestingly enough, I installed MS Voice Command side-by-side with Voice Commander. Once you activate Voice Commander the first time (and it makes the audio gateway connection to the BT headset), you can use MS Voice Command to issue commands through the headset. The problem is that it seems to only be able to do this once, and then you have to reset. The other thing I've noticed is that all audio is rerouted through the headset; if your phone rings while the BT gateway is active, you will only hear it in the headset (but you get to hear Voice Command anounce the caller). Ah well, at least it works for about 10 minutes per reset. :?
I have exactly the same problem with you guys with my SE HBH-610a and i.Tech Clip R35, and some other SE and i.Tech models which I have also tried. Can only activate once, and will not work again until a soft-reset. This has been like that since the shipped ROM, and the new ROM didn't fix this problem.
Voice command over BT on the i-Mate AKU2 rom works great though, and works 100% of the time!! Though both from same company Cyberon, the one on Dopod is VOICE COMMANDER, and the one on Imate is VOICE SPEED DIAL.
I have tried un-installing Voice Commander from my Dopod and installing Voice Speed Dial (from hack in this forum), but didn't get voicedialling over BT to work this way on the Dopod. Sigh!!
Has anyone contacted Dopod on this matter? If I-mate can implement Voicedialling over BT correctly, I don't see why Dopod can't!! I will write to Dopod. Can't imagine calling their hotline again...the last time I called, I had to wait at least 50mins before my call was answered.

Still no solution for this?
Still no solution for this issue? Isnt there a way to port/convert Project VCABT to the Prophet?
That would be more than great"!
I have the same problem plus it does not recognize my voice command. Alway dials a wrong person. :evil:
Any progress?
Dear Friends,
Has anyone had any progress with this issue? 3-rd party software? Maybe some bluetooth stack patches.
Please, if anyone has any valuable information to share, please do.
With warmest regards...
there is a major problem with the ROM
Until a new one is produced the BT will be stuffed
Hello all
Can you tell me is your supplied handfree working?
I just installed some mp3's onto a new SD card, while I had the headphones on I thought I would try handsfree, it does not work.
The silver button you press to activate voice dial or answer calls does nothing, and I cannot speak into the microphone, I can only hear calls.
I have voice tabbed my contacts, voice dialing works great on the phone but not the headset. Inside the phone, the phone menu has 'Turn Hands-free On', this is greyed out. Has this feature been removed from the phone?
The phone is Orange SPV M600
Thanks
i find the button on the headset useless. 9 times out of ten it does nothing, then suddently it will end a call or open the voice prompt. I gave up and put it down to a windowsism.
Well, mine can only answer calls, it will not start voice dial and will not open the phone app. No problems with sound or mic.
I use Motorola H350 anyway so it doesn't really bother me.
Thanks
From a lot of Googling I have found nothing official even mentioning the use of the handsfree they advertise and supply. However, it would appear that this phone is only capable of answering and closing calls with handsfree, so not truly handsfree.
You still have to take out your nice new, expensive toy in order to make a call, clearly advertising it to potential muggers. Where I live that is just about everyone you see.
Does seem strange though that cheap old Nokias can do this, but a nice new computerised phone can not. Then again it is Microsoft. I have only had it a week, but already I have found that WM5 is not very backward compatible with software. There are issues with bluetooth headsets (which is why I cancelled an order), and in a week just like old ME, I have lost count of the number Soft Resets that I have had to perform.
I find the most useless feature is the voice dial, you have to open, start, programs, voicedial to make a call or use it. Why not just run the app manually rather than trust voicedial to guess what your after.
Sorry guys but I am not sure what the fuss is about.
I had my phone for a month before getting the BT headset (no problems there by the way) so I assigned the voice speed dial to the comm manager button. Easy and useful and you have the comm manager icon in the today tray so the button is not a major loss.
Now that I have the H350 which is more comfortable than the wired hands-free any way, everything works smoothly but this is with the i-mate ROM. Perhaps your BT troubles are from the Orange ROM?
voice speed used to work.....
I have an H500 headset which used to work splendidly on my Orange M600. The silver button would launch voice dialling and pick up and end calls.
however I upgraded to the Dopod ROm and now it does bugger all! I can hear the calls, but the headset will not launch voice dialling, and all options are greyed out.
Question is, is this feature in the main ROm or the extended part....I have acopy of the Orane extended ROm but can't see anything that looks like the right cab file.
I did not let Dopod customisations run after upgrading, and I really don't want to do a hard reset again!
If anyone knows which file you need to install voice speed dialling I'd be grateful!

The wired headset does not work fully, it can only be used to answer or close calls, it will not initiate voice dialing. I bought a cheap bluetooth headset off of ebay, it paired straight away and initiates voice dialing. I have never been able to get my headet to work, I now just plug it in if I want to play music.
I am not sure about Dopod and Orange ROMs, but in i-mate ROM the speed dial app it self (cyberon voice speed dial) is in the extended ROM while it's settings applet is in ROM.
As for the part that is responsible for answering / ending calls that should be in ROM with any version.
the H500 IS a bluetooth headset- it's a Motorola and wasn't cheap!
It used to work as I say, then I went to the Dopod ROM and now there is no voice speed dialing at all.
I can't seem to find the cyberon cab files anywhere....

Sorry I read too quickly, I originally started this post before I got bluetooth as I could not get the wired set to work.
Hi
From what I had read in the past when I was having problems with my headset, Cyberon's Voice Speed Dial software is embedded in the OS it does not come as a cutomisation. I have just brought mine up and it simply says Cyberon Voice Speed Dial Setting Version 1.1 Build 51212. Copyright (c) 2005 Cyberon Corporation. There is nothing there related to Orange, and I can not find it in any of the Orange Extended ROM CABS.
I guess Microsoft did a deal with them to install it in the Phone Edition of WM5.
I am encountering a problem where after some time (do not know how long exactly) my BT headset seems not to synchronize with my TyTN. So when an incoming call arrives I am unable to answer it using the BT headset. Also, when I try to use Voice dialing it efuses to use my BT headset.
Only when I do a soft reset it works.
any ideas?
I have the same problem with a SonyEricsson HBH-610A.
Some times the bluetooth stops it self and I have to activate it agan.
Today when I tried to install the headset again, it searched forever and then I got the message, "Problem with Internal Bluetooth Hardware" and a OK button??
Only when I do a soft reset it saves the problem.
It actually drives me nuts, because I want to answer calles when the TyTN is in its holster.
I am using a Plantronics 655 with my TyTN running VC 1.5 with the common registry hack and have similar problems but not exactly the same. I want to be able to initiate voice dialing via the headset but when VC repeats the command it comes through the phone speaker and not the headset which also means my confirmation of the command has to be through the phone rather than the headset. Also, when a call comes in my TyTN speaks the name and number of the calling party through the telephone speaker but only beeps in my headset. To me it should be speaking to me through the headset.
I'm trying to get down to the bottom of this issue so it can be resolved through coordinated pressure on the responsible party(s).
Any help I receive will go to help all BT users of VC on the TyTN.

I have a stock Tilt2 from AT&T. MS Voice Command v1.6.21849 came with it, but has a problem. When trying to call a contact, or dial a number, it can't actually initiate the call. it shows the contact briefly, and that's it. If you tell it to show the contact, no problem. But trying to call a contact, or dial a number, won't work. I have both "Contacts" and "Phone" enabled in settings. I have searched the site here for hours & been unable to find anyting. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Edited to add: The problem only arises when using a bluetooth Headset. Thanks in advance again!
Same Problem
I have noticed the same problem. I did discover if I had the phone in my hand (outside the case or pocket) that it worked. I wonder if the mic input transfers back to the handset after the initial inquiry (i.e first beep, "call contact x" second beep, voice input transfers to handset microphone.)
Mine doesn't care in hand or not. VC is getting the command just fine, it just can't initiate dialing? When BT is NOT connected: Hold the send key, listen for the tone, speak command, verify correct contact, contact briefly shows on screen, phone dials number. When BT IS connected: push the headset button OR hold the send key, listen for the tone, speak command, verify correct contact, contact briefly shows on screen, there's a dull tone and that's the end. So VC is getting the information because it pulls up the right contact. It just can't initiate dialing.

Hmm. I just tried it on my stock ROM ATT Tilt 2 and it works ok. However, I need to get the timing just right. If I confirm the contact too soon, nothing happens. If I wait 1-2 seconds before confirming, it works. Stupid Widcom Bluetooth stack.

That works for me too. Thanks! Weird though, works only if I initiate the call from the headset. If I initiate the voice dialing from the send key, while a BT headset is attached, still doesn't work...
Incoming caller announce
Does incoming call ounce work for you on the tilt 2? My announces over the speaker phone regardless of my settings.

Annouce works on held call
Hey guys,
I noticed today while i was on a call, another call came in and the voice command announced the call in my bt as it was suppose to.
I guess this goes back to the timing issue that was discussed on another thread about microsoft needing to update the vc software to work with these new BT stacks.
Anybody had any luck or can post bt headsets that actually work.
I upgraded from a Fuze which worked great with my headset not i have nothing working with the tilt 2
Please advise

I have a Blue Ant Q1 that works very good with the tilt 2 & VC. It will read my text, e-mails, & in-coming calls all over the BT. Sometimes the messages & e-mails will flop back & forth over blue tooth & speakerphone. Plus, I can listen to my music on the Q1 as well.
I have the BlueAnt Q1 headset also and contrary to what was said eariler it does not announce incoming through the Tilt 2 Voice Commander software. This headset has its on software the will announce incoming phone number only but is not able to link that number to a name in your contacts.
Its a very neat headset as everything is done by voice commands. But like all the other headsets talked here it will announce everything else (Emails, appointments, test messages, etc) but incoming caller information through VC.
you ever get the feeling the left hand (microsoft)doesn't know what the right hand (bluetooth manufacturers) is doing?
The awkward voice command delay

I agree completely. On my original tilt, you said "yes" right after the voice command confirmation prompt. With the Tilt 2 I need to wait about an awkward pause longer otherwise I get a call disconnected beep in the handset and the call does not go through. If anyone finds a registry value or other fix for this, I'd be greatly appreciative!
The text message announcements DO NOT WORK, but the email announcements DO! what's up with that?! can anyone explain this one to me? i even tried adding registry edits with no luck. i've tried several ideas and nothing seems to work. i believe there is a way to get it to work, as it does announce the emails as they come in, but i can't figure it out.
These issues are all because of the new Bluetooth Stack in Windows Mobile 6.5. MSVC is old and written for the old MS BT Stack. It will not be updated, so unfortunately what you get is what you get.
I have the same problem; incoming calls are announced just fine but text messages are not read to me as with my WinMo 6.1 Tilt. I really wish there was a fix for this!
Greeting everyone, I hope that anyone can help me.
I'm from México have a Treo Pro, I recently bought an iLuv i222 bluetooth headset. I can listen to music just fine and the controls for it work perfectly. I can answer calls and dial the last number with the headset call button. The problem is that when I press it for 2 seconds in order to use the voice dialing nothing happens on my phone. I installed the speed dialing program as it didn't have one. If I activate it from the phone it works but when I try using it with the BT headset nothing happens, I only hear a beep but the voice dialing screen doesn't appear on my phone. I hope that anyone can help me.
what you need to do is enable voice command. i have wm 6.5, so i goto settings personal, voice command. i dont know what version you have, but if you look around in the settings menu it should be there.
cheers
Thanks for replying. The problem is that aparently the Mexico version of the Treo Pro doesn't come with Ms Vocie command. Do you know if there is any ROM of it?
