Is there a way to change the default action of a one button headset during a call from ending the call to muting the microphone instead? I tried several apps in Google Play like Headset Button Controler but it seems like they are not compatible with the G2. Thanks in advance.

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...

Anyone know of a way to set a dedicated hardware mute button? I know SPB pocket plus has a mute action, and you can assign that to a hardware button, but is there any other way without installing SPB pocket plus. I basically want to set that voice command (hold) button to mute, as I toggle between mute and unmute alot, and having a button would be easier than sliding the slider up and down.
Thanks in advance.
Why not just pressing and holding the volume slider down to switch to mute?
press and hold the comm button
Would that work with the input from a BT headset as well? For some reason my Cardo scala-500 kills audio as well as mutes when I try to mute.

which of us are you asking? and either way, just try it
I'm sure I'm being very dim but I thought Froyo supported Bluetooth voice dialling. Just tried with my BlueAnt headset, press the button on the headset and I get the low beep that means it can't do anything. I can receive calls on the headset fine.
Should this work and what am I doing wrong?
TIA

I too had some issues with this, especially after installing skype. I finally got it to work by setting up the phone dialer as the default and pressing the bluetooth button twice insted aod the usual once.
It seems that some firmwares have this disabled. not sure why.
Updated my galaxy s to 2.2 last night and now I can do the bluetooth voice dial but the volume is too low. The Bluetooth in-call volume is set by default and 50%, how do I fix this without turning up the volume manually every call?
Thanks
to be more specific, its the womans voice that is too low when she ask for a number. How do you raise the volume by default
use the volume up/down from the bluetooth headset
im saying at the time the call number is requested, the volume bar on the phone called "bluetooth in-call volume" is at 50% and I can barely hear the womans voice unless I manualy turn up the volume on the phone. The problem is I have to do it every call and want to know how to change the default setting
No one else has this problem? I really need help with this
All the views and only one reply, can anyone at least confirm if they have the same issue?
Thanks
Have the same problem but with the nexus S on 2.3.3. I would say it is an inconvinience to keep adjusting the volume everytime you try to make a call. I have yet to find a setting to change the default.
There is an APP that will set the bluetooth volume when a headset is connected. Search market for "bluetooth volume" by nightshade. This does NOT help for the stupidly low volume of the lady that provides voice prompts though - just allows a preset override for the in call volume.
Can anyone let me know how to do this? I use my phone as an audio player and often listen in bed at night, and twice now I've managed to press the 'pause' headset button twice by accident and thus redialled someone in the middle of the night!
I never use the headset's middle-button double-click-to-redial feature anyway, so I'd just like to disable it.

I'm using PowerAMP as media player on my Desire. Everything was alright using a "non-HD"-ROM. I used the button on my wired headset to control the media player.
After flashing a HD-ROM (ReflexTSenseHD v1.61 and 1.7) i can't controll the media player anymore, instead this happens after pressing the button
single click - opens Voice Dial
double click - redial last number
This seems to be a new feature in the HD-ROMs, question is: where can I disable it?
TIA
No one? All I want to do is disable the redial function of the headset cable, surely there must be a way to do something so simple?
Andre
found a solution. I've installed "Headset Button Controller" and everything is running fine again
Many thanks, that solves my problem fine, no more accidental redials now.
Now if someone could just write a small utility like this that's configurable (single-, double-, triple-clicks or long-press on any of the three buttons being assignable to various functions) that would be even more perfect!
Andre
In my case i can use single press for pause/play...
however I would like to be able to redial the last number when using wired headset on my Desire S.
can anyone suggest how to do this?
