How to activate MS Voice Command over BT headset (WM5)?

Hi all,
I'm looking the way to activate Microsoft Voice Command 1.5 over my Bluetooth Headset (Plantronics Voyager 510) on my ETEN M600.
Currently, I can easily activate Cyberon Voice Command (by pressing a button on my headset), but MS Voice Command is much more powerful and I would prefer to use it.
It is possible to do this on the ETEN M600 (Windows Mobile 5)?
I think there's already some topics on the forum but I'm a newby and I can't find the appropriate answer. Thx for your help and maybe sorry if I ask the question again :wink:

replace voicedialer with microsoft voice command
1. download and install a registry editor i use resco registry editor others use phm registry editor
2. then go to the registry key "HKLM\software\OEM\Voicecommand\" in this directory there is an entry that say path go into the path and edit point it to \program files\voice command\voicecomd.exe
3. then go into the file explorer of either resco or the built in file explorer of windows go into the windows folder and delete the startup item sddemon.exe
soft reset then your done

Voice Command 1.5 with the New ROM

Has anyone sucessfully installed MS Voice Command 1.5 with the New ROM (Jasjar ROM 1.30.68 WWE, Radio 1.09.00, extROM 1.30.153)? It installs but when I run it I get an error message and it disables itself. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sven

I have VC working fine with the new ROM - installed and worked just the same as before, so does the reg hack to enable operation via BT headset...........maybe if you try it again (re-install?) it will work

works fine on mine.

@sbatxda I had the same issue, VC would just close itself...what worked was a simple soft reset, I only figured this out after pulling out all my nose hair but hey it's never to late to learn Just do a soft reset an it should work as normal.

sorry, i assumed a soft reset was a foregone obvious solution and would be done automatically by anybody that has any knowledge of any microsoft system.
if in doubt, reset

youmeus: it worked ok on the new ROM then? I'll try to upgrade soon I guess then..

MS Voice Command 1.5
Thanks for the suggestions. I have made the register modification to get it to work with my BT headset and I have made multiple soft resets. I have some issue with the Voice Command install in that I have to first install the 1.0 version and then the 1.5 version; if I go directly to 1.5 the install tells me that there is no previous version and stops. This may create some issue, but this is also how I did it with the previous ROM version. I'll try a re-install again.
Regard,
Sven

@vijay555, yes I tried it again and it works ok now...but this new rom has a few issues that I am not comfortable with so I am going back to old rom once I get home later
@sbatxda, the better way to install VC is vis the cab file...just look for the cab file on your desktop eg C:\Program Files\activesyne\voice command\...etc and drag the cab to your PPC.

MS Voice Command 1.5 installation
Thanks youmeus,
Installing the .cab worked better.
I'm now having difficulties installing the .cab file with my ISP settings. It will not install on my device or storage card. This worked fine with the old ROM.
Ideas anyone?
Regards,
Sven

please tell me the issue about this or send a link in a thread. VC 1.5 doesn't work with my BT headset.

DTR - try this - copied from another thread on here
MS Voice Command activation from BT headset
Now this one is sweet and makes the JASJAR the daddy for voice commands.
Install Voice Command to the default location.
Fire up a registry editor
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand
Modify the string marked "path" from the default \Windows\SDDialer.exe to \Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe
Now, when you press your BT headset connect button, MS Voice command will fire up and take commands through the headset. It's reponses will be played through the headset too.

@adesonic
oh, thatone I shure did try. But, having a Magician, I obviously had no success.
Maybe the fault is with the i-tech headset, which probably doesn't support connection.
I also had no luck with streaming audio to that headset, which some posts in other threads say is possible.
Thanx neverteless for your fast reply.

Why haven't MS upgraded this software to a proper WM5 version yet?
OR have they and I haven't been paying attention?

Question: Earlier I and others have had problems with showing of contacts displaying a blank page.. Are you guys able to show contacts using Voice Command properly?

@eman, you have to add one the files form the VGA hack in your windows folder for VC to display contacts...I can't remember the name of the file so do a search on the board!

Great to know there's a solution.
Installing VC now

with the previous ROM there was the issue where it didn't work in laptop mode with the lid closed. Does VC work in that mode now, or are you guys using it in portrait mode?
It would be great if it did.

the file needed is outres.96.dll
no VC doesnt work when the clam is closed.
even on the latest release.

XDA Exec PHM regedit won't load

Has anyone else had this problem:
I've downloaded the PHMregedit msi from phm.lu (the activesync desktop installer version) and installed it in the same way as every other add-on, i.e. just double click the msi.
It installs to the desktop machine OK and it pulls up the ActiveSync installer as per normal BUT regedit does not appear on the ActiveSync "programs to install" list.
If I OK the install dialog then the install finishes up as normal but there is no "please check your mobile device for any additional required steps" message and the software is not installed on the XDA.
Everything else that I try installs fine.
Is there some other step I should be doing or is there a problem here?
Thanks
Pete

I just use the CAB file. Here it is:

Drag cab to my device/Documents/ run cab... then I get "unsuccesfull"
Any ideas?

RE
Why don't you try another FREEWARE registry editor, Tascal Registry Editor (TRE), here:-
http://www2r.biglobe.ne.jp/~tascal/download/pocketpc/tre_e.htm
It works well on my QTEK9000 aka Universal

Also read http://www.pocketpcmag.com/blogs/menneisyys/UltimateRoundupOfRegistryEditors.asp

Thanks Guys... Should keep me busy for a while/

FWIW, I just had the exact same problem with PHM Registry Editor. It would load up just like another program, launch the ActiveSync program loader, but then nothing would appear on my 8525. I tried soft booting a couple of times and various other combinations with no results...
However, dragging the CAB file to my storage card and then running it from the unit seemed to do the trick. Thanks for posting that cktlcmd!

mouse mode in WM6

I have a problem and hope that some of the Artemis experts can help me
In WM6 you can select the mouse mode. Normally it is disabled which is fine since I use the keys more.
However, from time to time the mouse spontanious appears, probably after pressing a button too often or too long.....
How can I remove completely this function?? I don't use it and it is bugging me..
I have looked at the registry but there is nothing I can find..

what rom?
what button u press?

rename mousemode.exe in the /windows folder of the ppc into mousemode.bak
Use totalcommander instead of the normal ppc explorer, otherwise its a pain to do it...
soft reset.

I have tried to rename the file by using total comander CE and each time after I choose the enter after changing the exe to bak the file remains a .exe file????

Are you using Meschles Touch 2.1 ROM? Or do you have Hbutton installed? Meschled set the Start Menu Button to Activate the mouse when you hold it until it vibrates. If you don't use his ROM then it's not the reason.

Or after you close TomTom??
See this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1536593&postcount=2

I am using the Fracoon 2.2 ROM.
I have tried to press and hold the start menu but nothing happens.
To be quite honest, I have no idea what triggers the enabling of the mouse mode but it is irritating that it sometimes comes up
I know it is not when you close TomTom

I am sorry you are right. Work around is this.
1. Copy the mousemode.exe to another folder on the storage card(for save keeping).
2. open notepad or pword and make a tekst document. save it as mousemode.exe in \mydocuments (it will save as mousemode.exe.txt)
3. opentotal commander and rename mousemode.exe.txt into mousemode.exe
4. copy the new mousemode.exe into the windows folder (it will overwrite the old mousemode.exe.
5. soft reset.
Update:
Try to disable the mousemode via settings and afterwards do the steps above. Otherwise you will have a mousemode, but cannot shut it down an it treloads at a soft reset.
ready!

Just want to know if there is any Cab for
Mouse Mode in WM6
