Best Voice dial software ?

Hi Guys, i know hat this forum has alot of different voice command software scattered all over the place.
I just wondered what people thought was the best one for the xda exec (using bluetooth headset) to activate.
I have tried MS voice Command, which is very accurate but does not switch off the BT connection once it closes it's voice rec system. This means that all system audio is then send to your headset until you manually switch it off with the button.
I like the Cyberon voice dial app supplied but having to create voice tags for everything is a pain
I cannot get Cyberon Voice Commander 1.5 to install correctly and the version on xda-dev's ftp site is chinese
I want to know what people think of Fonix apps, Voice Dial 2.0 seems okay but is limited to only dialing, no full control so would like to try fonix voice central 3.0 buit cannot find anywhere to download this.
what do you guys think.....which do you use (if any) and which do you think is best ?

Using a Wizard with a Bluetooth Device

I have a wizard and I use Microsoft Commander for Voice dialing. (no need to record all the tags)
When I use a bluetooth handsfree and click on the handsfree device to activate voicedialing it selects to standard voicedialling software installed on the device.
Any ideas how to make it use the Microsoft Voice Commander
Cheers

Go to Start/settings/buttons and replace the standard voice dialing app with voice command. I think it is button 4.

Voice based dial-by-number on 8525?

My wife recently got a Cingular 8525 and we setup the PTT button to activate voice dialing. The problem is that it is restricted to voice-tag based dialing. On my Motorola KRZR I can hit the voice dial button and say any number I want and it will dial it. I do not have to record voice tags for my contacts. Is there an upgrade for the 8525 to allow this kind of voice dialing?

Yes
Microsoft Voice Command 1.6

Scroll down and follow the instructions for using ms vc 1.5 over the built in cyberon crap. Follow everything except you will be using ms vc1.6 since its the newest.

That did the trick. Voice -dial-by-number is working like a charm now, both with and without a bluetooth earpiece. A very slick piece of software!
Thanks for the pointer.

np glad you got it working.

MS Voice Command & Object Push - Two q's

Good Evening guys,
Just a quicky
Firstly I have installed MS Voice command but how do I program in voice dials? I want to be able to use voice dialing while driving and I have programmed the button so I can dial using voice but can't find anywhere to actually program them in.
Secondly My handsfree for the car supports downloading the address book to it by object push. I have done it with other phones but I am guessing I can't do it with this one? Is that correct?
Thanks in advance,
Max

What handsfree kit are you using ?

By default, MS Voice Command maps it to a long press of the Send key.
And not sure what you mean by "program in voice dials" as MS Voice Command doesn't need you to record you saying a person's name, it figures it out via speech to text.

voice dialing/handsfree (best set up)

Hi,
What is the best existing set up for voice dialing/bluetooth handsfree dialing for android?
I've MT4G with MIUI with voice dialer app and it rarely gets my command (pretty much all i use is "call first name last name" )correct. Not sure if it is my BT headset or if it is android in general. I am looking for a set up which doesn't require using internet connection to use voice commands unlike in voice search which needs data on.
Vlingo needs data connection too. I've a Moto HK200 headset which I think should be adequate. Is there a battle tested app that does the job better.
Thank You!
