How to make Bluetooth voice dial work on our HTC devices. - General Accessories

No bull ****.
I have an MPX300 and the bluetooth voicedail work swwwweeettt!
I am almost tempted to keep the MPX300 because the BT handsfree works great and the ability to make calls by pressing a button on my BT headset and only using my voice is so wonderful.
I can leave the phone in my briefcase or in my PDASkin case and make a call by simply pressing one button on my BT headset and speaking a number or simply saying the name of one of my contacts, perfectly. Even while I drive my car.
Ha, and other people ***** about the PDA-cell phone being to big! They can't any more when the little BT headset on my ear can do everything there dumb "small" phone can do!
The maker of the bluetooth hardware driver and voice recognition software is www.voicesignal.com
If they make it for all the other phones out there, dam it, they should make it for the HTC devices too.
The only problem is they do not think there is a market for all the individual "end users" like us and I think they only deal with the OEM clients.
If we gather together and become a "high dollar" client like the OEM is, they will listen and make it. They are in their business for the money.
If we can find out their bottom line dollar amount they would need to develop a solution for the different HTC devices, and have xda-developers set up a special paypal donation account for bluetooth voice dial, and we all donate, we could do this.
I am willing to donate $200.
Because they will have to make a hardware driver for each HTC device, they may want a certain amount of money for each device. We may have to set up several donation accounts.
Hey, it is worth a shot.
Or, we could just bug the **** out of them and maybe they will start making it for our devices if they think there is a market for it.
Word of caution though, if we bug the **** out of them, they think there is a market for it, they will charge more if we go with the group donation idea.
Well, opinions please.

VoiceSignal software for smartphones
VoiceSignal would be happy to provide its speaker independent dialing solutions to HTC (or any other smartphone manufacturer); however, even though the HTC smartphones are based on the Microsoft Windows Mobile OS, we still need to work with the manufacturer to be able to get our application to work effectively on their phone.
If you would like to see the VoiceSignal application on the HTC (or any other smartphone) please contact the the manufacturer directly.

If you wont sell your software, http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=23739&highlight=
then people will TAKE it.
We know that there is a special driver for each device needed to activate the your program when the BT device's button is pressed.
Make the driver for our devices and we wil buy it or donate money to any account you want.
I will personally donate $200.
The OEM's will not do **** and they do not listen.

I have bought a VITO Technology voice dialling solution which is advertised as working with the XDA II and a Bluetooth headset. Called VoiceDialer, it cost $15.95 and you can download a free 14 day trial from http://vitotechnology.com/en/products/voicedialer.html . It seems to work but I haven't checked it with my Bluetooth headset yet.
Please try it and let me know what you think

I wish i knew how to hack the xda's....

I wish i knew how to hack the xda's those who can are lucky. The point of this post is to see if a few hackers and developers can conquer the bluetooth headset voice dialling issue. It would send waves through the community if achieved and would be a real class feature which the XDA's do deserve. .....Just a thought
David
it's not a question of hacking it's a question of developing software which would listen to the stream of sound comming from the headset and recognize and dial or link it with a voice dialer program
Yes, if it was achievable I am sure it would have been done by now. The XDA 2 is severely brain damaged in my opinion, so much potential lost through releasing it with a bluetooth stack that doesnt do the job that it should. When I saw bluetooth as part of the spec, I thought I could plug in a headset and use it for voice dialling, in fact it was one of the features that made me buy...................you know the rest of the story. :?

Same here :x It really is quite an oversight.
it truely is.... strange a big software company has not tried devkoping something. If its to do with the bluetooth stack there is a program out there that lets you edit the stacks and reduce the amount of them to allow for highier transfer rates would this help.... just searching for ideas....

The main player in Bluetooth software was Widcomm, but since they have been bought out by Broadcomm, they are now only interested in supplying stuff to OEMs. Therefore it is up to the likes of Microsoft, O2 or whoever to do something about it. And I dare say they will ..... eventually :x
only microsoft
no phone companies i've ever heard of develop applications on that level of complexity

Phase II in PDA2k campaign has been launched

This message was posted on Club i-mate http://www.clubimate.com/forums/tm.asp?m=7184
----------------------------------------------
Dear PDA2k owners,
December 13 has arrived and Carrier Devices is yet to do anything that addresses our frustration. Thus, as we agreed, we will take this campaign into phase II in which we will voice our complaints to individuals working for Carrier Devices through every mean possible. Here are the email addresses:

Please note that the first three email addresses belong to senior managers at Carrier Devices.
For those users who are willing to go the extra mile you can also fax your complaint to the following fax number:
+97143904428
And for those who are willing to go all the way you can SMS the mobile numbers of the three senior managers I mentioned earlier:
Ann Degnan +971505508863
Shadi Zaytoon +971506583993
Ahmad Aldulemi +971505508864
Personally, I will send my complaint through all three methods.
I understand that many members are too busy to sit down and compose the complaint itself, so I wrote the following template for them to copy and send. NONETHELESS, please try your best to write a complaint in your own words instead. If CD receives the same complaint from all users then they will most probably come up with a template answer just as well that doesn't really say anything. Here is the template text:
Dear Carrier Devices employee,
I write you today to express my frustration at the delay in resolving the Bluetooth shortcomings in the PDA2k. Having Bluetooth functionality played a major role in making my decision to buy the PDA2k, which might explain the magnitude of my disappointment when I realized that the PDA2k did not have a functional Bluetooth feature.
At first Carrier Devices told us, PDA2k users, that the upgrade will be available very soon. That was back in early October, but nothing happened hitherto. A patch was released, but the patch did not fix anything. For a while it even seemed that CD is incapable of turning this situation around.
But what is more infuriating is the lack of communication by CD. And I am not talking about the template emails that you send out to your customers telling them that CD is working on an update. I believe that $900+ paying customers deserve more than that.
I need to know when will the update be available so that I can make a decision as whether to keep my PDA2k or return it to the supplier. I need to know if you are really addressing all the faults of the device or if you will release a patch that causes more problems than it fixes.
PDA2k users have been complaining on your forum to no end, and yet no CD employee bothered to address any of our concerns. Some of us decided to reach you in person, and this is why you are receiving my email.
We will be awaiting your reply. If CD decides not to respond however, which is not very unlikely, then we will not have any choice but to express our frustration to other interested parties. A couple of IT magazines already showed some interest in this topic, and I guess that getting hundreds of emails would cultivate that interest even more.
Thank you for reading my email, and I apologize for infringing on your inbox.
Finally, I would like to thank all the members who are participating in applying pressure on CD to come up with a quick and final solution to this outragous situation. I would like to thank especially Outz, jandrsn, alashram, and Mohammad the owner of www.pocketpcdubai.com for their help on this.
Thank you, and let's hope for a satisfactory outcome this time.
Is the BlueTooth issue only with the i-mate brand of the device, or with all of the similiar devices made by HTC (O2, T-Mobile, etc)

WARNING: operators and distributors and manufacturers...

WARNING: operators and distributors and manufacturers want to CHEAT YOU OUT OF A2DP (stereo audio over Bluetooh)!
The worst is happening: ROM upgrades with Push Email are rolling out (not all public yet, but our sources already have them) and some of operators and distributors are not placing the A2DP (support for stereo audio over Bluetooth) in ROM upgrades with Push Email!!!
As of now we can confirm, that ROM upgrade for i-mate K-JAM with Push Email and upcoming ROM upgrades with Push Email from Orange UK - don't have support for A2DP (stereo audio over Bluetooth)!
Microsoft is offering to all hardware manufactures possibility to include native support for stereo audio over Bluetooth, but apparently the biggest buzz these days is about Microsoft's new Push Email technology, so these manufacturers (HTC?) or operators (Orange?) or distributors (i-mate?) are "forgetting" to include the A2DP in latest ROM upgrades! This is big scandal! Obviously Microsoft is not at fault because Microsoft made A2DP available as some manufacturers and operators prove: O2 Xda Atom made by Quanta, M600 and G500 made by E-TEN and German version of T-Mobile MDA Pro - have A2DP on board!
Our advice to (potential) customers is crystal clear: stop, don't buy a Windows Mobile phone!!! ... unless support for stereo audio over Bluetooth (A2DP) is already now available! In other words: don't trust in promises and in marketing pep-talk of some employees of some distributors, operators or manufacturers. Apparently for some reasons (technical problems with integration? testing not finished? quality issues?) the A2DP is not available in Push Email upgrades... and nobody knows "if" and "when" it will be available. Today it is i-mate and Orange... tomorrow it may be other operators and distributors. If they don't show respect to you, then you shouldn't buy their products. It's THAT simple!
http://msmobiles.com font
:evil: :evil: :evil:
Looney.
There are many good reasons not to include A2DP with the AKU2 release, not least being the fact that it doesn't work very well.
To suggest that anyone should boycott OEMs who 'dare' not to release under developed solutions to an unspecting public is like suggesting we should stop buying cars that don't come with nitrous injection and wings...
A2DP will be here soon, just wait until it works properlly (AKU 2.2 as I understand it).

Sponsoring Development of Free HTC IMEI Restore Tool

Hello,
I am interested in sponsoring the development of a free HTC IMEI Restore Tool. For this purpose, I have posted a project here:
http://www.rentacoder.com/RentACoder/misc/BidRequests/ShowBidRequest.asp?lngBidRequestId=507960
If you have interest in this work, and have the time and skills to complete this project, and accept to make the results of your efforts available for free:
I WILL PAY YOU FOR YOUR TIME.
Please post a bid at the above site, explaining your qualifications. The minimum bid starts at $100, and naturally, bids can go a lot higher. I am willing to pay up to $1,500 for a tool of this capacity. Naturally if there are multiple bids, I will choose the lowest bid.
I will publish the resulting source code of this project under GNU/GPL, so others will benefit from your work also.
Why am I doing this?
1) About 3,000 Turkish HTC users have been greatly inconvenienced by the abrupt deactivation of their phones based on the IMEI
2) No free solutions appear to be available for HTC users
3) The quality of service for commercial solutions leaves a lot to be desired
What guarantees do you have that you will get paid?
1) The project the site is posted on is an escrow site
2) When I accept your bid, I will pay the site in advance - before you even start the project
3) Once the site confirms that the funds are in escrow, you begin work
4) You get paid when I confirm that your solution works
5) The site acts as a neutral arbitrer to resolve all disputes
For more information: www.rentacoder.com
Why will I share the results of your work for free?
1) I don't want people to think this is a commercial venture
2) I have no intention to compete in this "phone unlocking" market
3) I just want my phone restored, and FAST! I have no further interest
GPLing your efforts guarantees that other people can benefit from your work after this project (and my interest) expires; it also guarantees that nobody can take your source code [or a version of it] and charge for it.
There are legal issues with such program. It would use code obtained by reverse engeneering of radio part, and GPL license is absolutely incompatible with such code.
I would personally refuse to join such program, though I know the process of changing IMEI in Universal and some other devices.
And more. You'll need to give the author one device of each of device types you'll need to unlock. And this would cost you much more than 1500$.
Then we'll devise a variant of GNU/GPL which is compatible with the goal of this project: making this tool free for everyone, and the source code available.
Somebody who already has HTC devices can realize the software, and subsequently can pocket the entire cash.

Have you tried on the dedicated support websites for the commercial solution(s)?
Thought not. So stop spamming this forum please - one thread of your begging is enough.
Richard
Richard you really are blabbing and actually it is you spamming. None of your posts help anyone and you're just being a "smarty" to other people.
Stop telling people what to do eh? he is trying to help people here. if you don't like it, you don't read his posts. thats it .
or do you think that your "stars" make you a more "reputable" person?... sheeeeshh....
Guys, although I'm surprised that there needs to be more then 1 thread on this by mimarsinan, I think that the idea is great... let's just let it pan out.
fluffcat1: I know your concerns, and it's obviously your posts and the other threads that have pushed mimarsinan to this idea, but again, it can't do any harm to see if the $$$ will flush out a solution. It worked for getting XP running on the Macs
mimarsinan: you would be wise to pay close attention to what Mamaich says. Any solution to this problem is highly illegal for most of us to release, regardless of your jurisdiction.
I suggest that making it closed source but free may assist you in getting a solution, but this might not be what you're after. But again, all respect to you for showing that you're serious about getting the solution.
V
Thanks, people.
My intent in making this open source was two-fold:
1) To demonstrate that I am not interested in making profit or entering the "phone hacking" market as a competitor,
2) To make sure that the source code built (or flushed) using the cash incentive goes back to the community and encourages further development.
If legal issues are a concern, as long as we have a free working solution, we may be able to drop the open source clause. We are free to negotiate all of this, guys and gals - so don't hold back on your bids.
Also, this would be work-for-hire, so the employer would have all rights to the furnished source code (non-exclusively if you wish), but the point is, the employee will be free from any sort of litigation, because this is work-for-hire. The employer would be solely responsible for the work performed, not the employee.
Bottom Line: This wouldn't get you into trouble, although it might get me. And this doesn't have to be published on your site if you're not comfortable, but I will assume the risk and publish it on my own site.

SPAM is SPAM. Replying to a thread is not spam. I am not telling anyone to do anything other than asking to avoid multiple cross posts and threads about the same topic which is SPAM.
The stars are how much I donate to xda-developers. Read my posts to see the help I have given and check my ebay feedback to see I am a 'reputable person'.
I'm glad you've reads all my previous posts before deciding I am unhelpful BTW. Mr I've-posted-five-times....

Get paid NOWHERE NEAR what you will get fined for breaking the law in whatever country you live in....
Get paid VERY LITTLE whilst you are locked up for 3 years in prison washing shirts / stampling out licence plates etc etc.
IMEI manipulation, in the UK at least, carries a 3yr prison sentence and £10,000 fine.
Richard
Do we have any people who would like to ask questions on this project before making a bid?
Please let me know if you have any questions!
Richard,
You make it sound like I'm trying to lure people into this project so I can throw them into jail. Do you really believe that yourself?
If you're so concerned about the legalities, how come your buddy Raskal isn't in jail? Plus, he is SELLING his product, he is making a profit out of changing IMEI numbers. We won't be doing this for profit. If Raskal isn't in jail, there's simply no way we'll go to jail.
How about removing SIM locks? Do you think that's legal? I don't see you spamming other people's posts about SIM locks...don't be a hypocrite.
You must be having some kind of commercial interest to protect - there is no other way I can make sense of your extremely offensive, rude posts.
About your reputation...some people seem to think of you as a crook:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=53815&highlight=fluffcat+crook
(may want to cover your back before you go out lashing at others next time)
Whatever reason you're against this free imei restore project I don't know - nor do I care. If you're not interested, the sensible thing is to walk away. If you really think you're going to jail for this - just walk away. Let us get the job done in peace.
If you're still coming back, then you're giving everybody plenty of reasons to brainstorm about your ulterior motives.
'Given my history'? What a knob you are! Anyone in sales is bound to have people *****ing, and the only problems I have are with items that go abroad....hmmm, funny that.
http://feedback.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=fluffcat1&ssPageName=STRK:ME:UFS
There's my ebay reputation - unique feedback - 1895, total positive - 2455, negative - 8.
Eight negative. Out of 2455. Makes me a crook does it? Winker.
You're the one making yourself look petty bringing up other threads you have no knowledge about and mentioning reputations - I have tried to help those people who have thrown it back at me so screw 'em - and it has no bearing on my comments on your actions in this thread despite you thinking it affects my 'reputation' - how can my fair comment 'hurts me even more.'? . How very pathetic of you.
You are the one who has made it personal, attacking both Raskal and I with no basis other than that he will not subvert his distribution process and cut out his middlemen just for you because you ewant him to, or write a special application just for you, and that I do not agree with you. It's no surprise no one wants to help you. This project is doomed frankly.
I have bought 1 jafWM from a UK reseller. I have had 2 email corresspondance with Raskal when the unlocking was first launched for jafWM ( it didn't do it out of the box) and I know a little of the unlocking industry and how it works.
jafWM is not aimed at 'hobbyist' phone unlockers or those who want to use it once or twice - it is a solution designed to make phone flashing ( and now unlocking) quick and painless for those not used to flashing HTC devices i.e market stall unlockers etc, and compared to some other devices it is relatively inexpensive. It is cheap as the device out of the box will not do anything other than flash files overriding CID, unlcoking needs a server credit at a cost of €25 IIRC.
If you wanted to flash your Nokia, would you pay € 500 for a furious box that could also change the IMEI? No. You'd get someone else with the box to do it...
Raskal actively promotes the free solutions for one-off unlocking use, and supports this site, but jafWM is desgned to save time and make flashing easier without reg edits etc to save time FOR THE PROFESSIONAL.
I have nothing to do with Raskal and no revenue to protect as you claim, I am merely stating my opinion to counter your ridiculus posts slagging him and other 'commercial' solutions.
IMEI manipulation is illlegal in most European countries. Raskal is not in a european country. The fact his device can do this does not render having it illegal. Using it to manipulate IMEI's is illegal, possession is not. It's his risk to develop the tool, but as all the other products he makes and sells for 'normal' phones can manipulate 'corrupt' IMEI's ( a handy euphemism) he obviously doesn't care as no-one has bothered him yet.
You say removing sim locks is illegal - IT ISN'T - it is perfectly legal and absolutley nothing to do with IMEI changing. You're just showing your lack of understanding of what you are talking about.

Changing the IMEI to disguise the origin of a phone is illegal in the UK and most other european countries that I have looked into.
Your developers should go into this with their eyes open - they are producing a tool to commit an offence which has severe penalities in this country and others to deter mobile phone theft. If they can in any way be traced by IP / bank account / registration etc then they should be wary.
How do they know you aren't just bait from law enforcement to get the underground hackers prosecuted? Look how many posts you have made - most are begging for a software IMEI changer - there are already free software unlockers for the wizard.
p.s when I bought jafWM it couldn't unlock phones or 'repair' IMEIs so as I haven't updated my software I am not committing any offence, and it is not jafWM's primary purpose although it is sure to drive sales ;-)
Richard
mimarsinan,
you are doing something wrong. turkish government came to a desicion to block the unrecorded imei numbered phones to stop phone theft making them impossible to operate again in the local phone networks. The phone owner can go to the police to report their phones as stolen and most commonly that the phones are in fact found. while doing this imei blocking, they have blocked the smuggled illegal phones too. But as they did that, they have said that they for one time record those smuggled phones to the system for a small fee like 3 dollars or so. when you buy a phone abroad, you can also register it with the system. You just have to take your phones original bill to the customs officer when entering your country turkey and make them stamp that bill for a small fee. Then taking this legal document to the TK or to your phoen operator, they record your phone to the system free of charge.
please stop this imei change stuff immediately...
If project will is organized that
everal methods of protection from illegal use the program.
1)webserver <->local client
2)only one change imei and keeping this in base webserver
3)in the event of request of the police bodies possible to find number which was assigned or publiс base
4)restriction for time of the functioning(working) the project -not more 1 month
5)restrictions in use IP address -for turkish only
I think this illegal change IMEI
SubZero,
When you go shopping abroad and buy a shoe or a shirt, do you keep its invoice? No...
...but the government needs to see my imate invoice to activate my phone.
Apparently there was a grace period while I was abroad where you could take your phone to a "dealer" and have it registered for a small fee. I never heard about this, and I never was able to take advantage of this.
The government is putting the burden on the consumer, instead of properly identifying and prosecuting the real people who are illegally smuggling thousands and thousands of cell phones with cloned IMEIs.
What happened to all those smugglers? They paid the small fee and got the job done. They won again.
What happened to people who legitimately bought their cell phones abroad? They lost.
That seem right to you buddy?

A shoe or a shirt is unlikely to need an invoice for a warranty claim becuase the digitiser won't work or the signal is weak....
And yes, I-mate's warranties are honoured worldwide so long as you have the original invoice as pointed out in their July newsletter.
So have you thrown away your invoice and lost your warranty? ooops...
Most people keep the invoice for expensive purchases like that.

You're doing a lot of research for us for free here, Richard?
Hate to disappoint you, but K.V.K. does not import or provide support for imate phones in Turkey. I was at their Ankara office two months ago and they didn't carry (or import) a simple battery pack for my k-jam!
In fact, they were pretty clueless when I showed them the phone and the battery pack I was looking for; they had never seen it before and they did not carry that manufacturers (imate) equipment.
Nice try though!
head to www.pdaden.com for a spare battery pack.
did you really purchase your i-mate from KVK? If not, they do have the right for not replacing your battery..
I've already ordered and received my battery pack, and also a 2 GB mini SD card, from an overseas supplier. I just went to KVK to order first, upon hearing that they "imported" imates into Turkey.
Like I said, they had no clue what I was talking about, and said they did not carry that phone model, that they did not import imates into Turkey.
Of course I did not purchase my imate from KVK either :lol:

Some other user already notice this, also with some email from HTC support.
Very sad the way of thinking of this company

For sure ... Big Thanks to them !!
...oh well...I wouldn't want it anyway! I will stick with one of the great ones the cookers produce and distribute here!
Long live the cookers and more choice!!
It's political. HTC want that their customer buy the new p3600i with WM6 + 500Mhz + 256Mb Ram..
One more thanks to all the "cookers" that provide us certainly better ROM than the original can be
i'm sad i bought my p3600 1 month ago .............
Well the cooked version of WM6 are out and are off a good quality so sod HTC,
we still have WM6 through the back door!
Didn´t they also said that didnt had any knowledge about P3600 having GPS, when in fact same model was being sold at asia and australia with GPS activated? I remeber that P3600 was brand new and they wanted to sell P3300 as fast as possible, because they knew that if GPS was activated no one would buy P3300 that hasn´t. Few months later, they release ROM´s with GPS active.
In resume, HTC always lie to their customers and always try some delays to sell worst units they got in stock.
I believe, they will release WM6, but not now... not as long they have worst models on sale.
in asia is available!?
hi guys...but is this p3600 update!?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/register.php?a=act&u=605414&i=19752714
why in asia is available and in europe never will be?
p.s.
sorry for bad english
Hi,For me it's finish for this Brand,an new pocket life with the best: Eten.X800 is coming soon in Europe.Bye HTC.
