BT Headset button activation - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

I have a plantronics BT headset with an SPV M500, i have settled with the idea that i am not going to get voice dialing but, is it possible to map the button on the headset to start voice dialing on the handset? I have read a lot about it and there seem to be lots of conflicting ideas.
Also, Pocketmac on the mac when syncing email with the email app, it just flashes on the screen and does not sync, when i try with entourage it flashes repeatedly and has to be force quit.
Anyone else had this problem??
Thanks

Incoming calls not transfered to PAMA BT headset

Hi,
It seems that my PAMA Plug N Go4 headset just works in one direction: when I make a call it is transfered to the headset, but I can't disconnect using the headset buttons. Incoming calls can only be answered when I press my XDA green button, and they are not transfered to the headset (though the headset does give a ringing tone). Anyone has any idea why this is happening ? Pairing was ok, and done via the setup directions in the manual.
simple tweak
by my experince, the following tweak may help u solve this problem.
1. make sure u must see the "headphone" symbol after turnon the bluetooth function, that's mean ur bt device is well connected with your xda;
2. keep the "bluetooth manager" still running in background or in front.
hope this can help u solve ur rpoblem :wink:
Bi-directional OK now, but Bluetooth Tools 1.1 cause problem
If I wait long enough before picking up the call, it seems to transfer.
But now I have another problem: I've installed Bluetooth tools 1.1.0 and when I try to bond, after entering the passcode and hit next , it returns always back to the passcode screen. No way to bond :-(
somtimes when I try to bond, XDA gives me a message that the PAMA wants to bond, which I accept and enter the passcode. Everyhting seems ok, but it does not pass the call to the headset. Anyone any clue ?

Bluetooth and WM6 - Pairing and Voice Command 1.6 Questions...

1. Is it possible to have the BT headset announce incoming calls but still have the phone ring with Voice Command 1.6?
Seems like it's an all or nothing deal so far... either ring and announce through the BT headset (by selecting "Announce Incoming Calls") or ring and announce through handset... Notifications work fine though. The handset would play the alert then the BT headset will announce the reminder. (See here for more details.
2. My BT headset and handset don't automatically re-pair after returning in range or resetting the handset. Anyone else experiencing this?
Everytime I walk out of range or reset my phone, I would have to turn off my headset then turn it back on for the two to pair back up. I sometimes forget and when I hear the handset ring, I pick up w/ the headset only to find that they're no longer paired. Is there a way to have the two automatically pair back up? I never had this problem when I was using AKU3 roms and the stock Cingular 2.25 ROM.

No voice dialing on Touch Pro 2?

I have a dutch ROM. I cannot find how to record voice dialing commands, moreover, the manual does not mention anyting about it.
What's up??
Voice dialling
There is no voice dialling option on the UK spec version either, I've tried MS Voice Command v1.6 and that doesnt work at all either, anyone got any ideas?
It works. Voice Command gets to the one hardware button assigned that's configurable. Just hold the Call button until u hear a beep.
I disabled Voice Command though due to the ringtone volume bug. Every 2 seconds the ringtone gets low for an announcement that you don't hear. Still waiting for a proper fix without all the work of replacing files.
I was looking for the original voice dialing function. But it really isn't there on the TP2. Voice Command is much better though. But damn that bug.
Another problem is that I use it on my bikehelmet when driving. But on the TP2 you need to hold the call button 3 secs (using Voice Command). That turns my bluetooth communication system off. xD
On my previous phone Xperia X1 I could assign a button without needing to hold it for 3 seconds. That worked for my bikesystem.
Google voice2go
Cyberon Voice speed dial is the best for the job but didnt try it yet. Dunno compatible with broadcom/widcomm stack if using btooth hfree. anybody tried it ?
I try Cyberon Voice speed dial, it seem to work well on mic of phone . but it don't work by BT activate, I think BT stack not support. Any one can solve this?

you have to buy the voice command software from Microsoft, its about $39.00. None of the foreign phones came with bluetooth voice command software...
Yes MS voice command works like a charm on TP2
Not through Bluetooth it doesnt, thats the main point of voice dialing, I cant fiddle with my phone whilst driving as thats illegal, voice dialing through bluetooth was a breeze with Voice Command v1.6 on the old Kaiser, I need to find out how to get that functionality again.
The Telus version of the Touch Pro2 comes with Voice Command 1.6.21052 in ROM

after reading your post sent a question to HTC...cut a long story short they tested MVC on a TP2 and through the BT headset succesfully activated a command... when i first contacted they sent the following cab and suggested i install ... so this may help
CVC-PPC-WWE-711091-hTCPPC (Aus Voice Commander).CAB
did not buy because of this post but according to HTC the profile does work on TP2 so back on final list after my 1st choice the B7610 is pushed back to Oct launch
Due to speaking to HTC support who said they had voice over BT headset working on TP2 brought one and low and behold it does not work ... not happy
Nice to know.
I googled CVC-PPC-WWE-711091-hTCPPC (Aus Voice Commander).CAB got redirected to the HTC site.
http://www.htc.com/au/SupportDownload.aspx?p_id=71&cat=3&dl_id=277
Guess what. Not available for my TP2.

So that's it, there is no voice dialing via bluetooth?
I've got the same issue with this phone, I could not activate voice dialer to listen me by pressing button on handsfree.
Is there anyone who can fix it????

I emailed in detail about this problem. Mentioning that Voice Command only works on the phone itself by holding the call button for 3 secs. When using the bt handsfree set the handsfree set turns off when holding the button for 3 secs on it. While it works perfectly on my old Xperia X1 (wich is made by HTC too). With 3 different bt sets. No holding buttons for 3 sec. But only by shortly pressing the button.
Hopefully they answer with good news.
guys, I have an idea: what if we use AEB button plus to map voice command to one of the vol key-long press or double press for example, and then we see if the BT headset is capable of invoking it using its own volume keys? dunno if it's clear enough...
you might try it, so no long press on power button of the headset or so...
the other problem: even if my strange idea would work, I dunno if then the TP2 / voice command would listen to my commands through the BT headset.. but it might be worth a try
this absence of voice dialing and all this problems are driving me mad
cheers!
Can someone confirm if MS Voice (UK) works on the TP2?
When I installed this on my Diamond, it f***ed up the phone and required a hard reset .... twice! Once I thought it was my fault, but I did it again to make sure, and no it was the phone!
It worked great on my previous phone, but I've just got this one the way I like it, and would not like to have to reset everything
I have the TMoUS TP2 that came with MSVC preinstalled and it works perfectly with my Motorola S9 headset via BT.
Maybe try to get the version in the TMo ROM?

Tilt2: Can't answer calls w/ bluetooth headset

Having this problem on 2 stock Tilt2s:
My Plantronics Discovery 925 headset doesn't properly answer incoming calls when I press the button on it that's supposed to (and that has worked with all other phones I've used). It's weird: when I press the button, the beep in the headset that's supposed to notify you of an incoming call changes to a different style of ring, but the call is not answered. Pressing it again does nothing.
I tried my wife's Discovery 925 and I'm getting the same issue.
I'd say it's a problem with these headsets in particular, but as I said, I haven't had any issues using them with other phones. Also:
My car bluetooth (2009 Audi A4) also has problems answering calls with the Tilt2.
If I answer the call on the phone itself, everything works fine.
I've heard that the Tilt2 uses a different bluetooth stack than usual, and perhaps this is to blame. Any way to fix this?
Here are some other threads reporting bluetooth problems:

Same exact problem with a Plantronics Discovery 975.
Wow, OK, figured out the problem:
The Widcomm bluetooth stack, in its infinite wisdom, interprets the pressing of a bluetooth headset answer button as equivalent to a press of the Green Button / Answer button on the phone (as opposed to treating it as the standard bluetooth command to answer the call). I had the Green Button remapped to iContact using aebuttonplus, which caused the problem. Incidentally, using "Green Button" to remap the green button doesn't result in this problem.
So I guess we can close the file on this one. Love these conversations with myself.

BT voice dialing on AOSP roms

Has anyone found a program that will actually recognize your voice and dial a contact when you press the "call" button on your headset while on a AOSP rom?
It works fine on TouchWiz stuff; S-voice does a good job of this, but, I have tried a few programs, like ECID, and they never actually recognize your voice or contact name...and, I have tried it on several high end BT headsets, so I know its not the headsets issue..
thanks!
