Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 Button Assignment Issue - HTC Excalibur

Hello Guys,
This is my first post as i just bought the HTC Excalibur. Great Device, i used to come here back in the day when i had an imate jam two years ago, anyways - i've been playing with the device and installed microsoft voice command 1.6. Everything's fine but i'm unable to assign a button to it and after i installed voice command, my IE Hardware Shortcut button isn't working anymore. I don't know what to do, i'm good at editing registries etc . It keeps saying Invalid Shortcut and target file is unavailable. Also, it locks up the phone - Please help, thanks. Oh Also, Great Job Guys - Wicked Site Filled With Endless Info. Keep those tricks coming.

nevermind - found a fix. just replace the file in
Windows/Short_IE.ink with the attached file
if this happens to you guys, that is.

Need Bluetooth toggle software

I am posting this again as my earlier message has been deleted (by accident, of course)
Occasionally when I want to activate bluetooth by clicking on the
system tray (bluetooth settings icon), it takes about 30-40 seconds
for it to come up. I am not sure why.
This problem is inherited to PZP and PBT as well.
Plus I have some problems with PZP and PBT, so I want to avoid them.
Anyone has a simple application that can turn BT off/on toggle?
Some small EXE will do. Appreciate if you can share this with us.
Bluetooth Tools is probably the app you're looking for.
If you do a search you'll find a link to it in here.
Cheers
Anthony
As I said, I am trying to avoid PBT (POCKET BLUETOOTH TOOLS) due to its problems as highlighted in previous discussions.
i hope someone has a simple EXE to switch BT on/OFF
hey mate,
if you're using tdlaunch or an app which allows you to put shortcuts on your today screen; then you can use this...see attached. it's the link to the bluetooth app of the pocket pc; it's still the same app as the one on the bt icon opens but it might work faster for you as compared to clicking the one on the tray. hope that helps.
cheers
rob
Thanks Rob, but unfortunately the delay of 30-40 seconds is still there even when I use your link.
I am still puzzled by this delay.
I have exactly the same problem on my m-1000, I have tried three different ROMs, and it still occasionally takes a while before the blueotth screen pops up. It is really annoying as it is not another piece of software causing it, as I have tried a hard reset and used it with no other software installed and it still kept hanging for 30 seconds or so. If anyone can find the cure I will make a hefty donation to this site as this problem is really irritating!!! :evil:
Bluetooth Toggles
Exclusive order is ready!
PM me when it stops working e.g. trial expiration
Bind with hotkeys to achieve fastest speed (Settings->Butons)
I can't seem to get it to work Winhex.
Actually I installed the program 2 days ago but
I forgot to try it (a phone call came in just after I installed
it and I forgotten about it altogether).
Is it because it's expired? How long is the trial period anyway?
Sorry I could not test it for you.
BTW why did you put an expiration trial?
Are you going to sell it?
After findus has made his/her 'hefty donation', would you
make it available for all of us for free?
Cheers
I haven't tested it yet either, will do this weekend unless the expiration date has been and gone. Thank you for your hard work in advance though. Out of interest, I take it you intend to sell this software after it has been tested- how much were you thinking of?
John Smith - I said I would make a donation to this site - I have been a member for a couple of months now and I haven't donated yet, so I thought it would be a good opportunity. If the person who has spent time designing their own application wants to charge for it, then that is their right surely! I know we would all rather have things for free, as there is a load of free useful software on this site, but still...!

sunnysoft calling card issue with wm6 rom

hi ,
i am using an application called sunnysoft to dial my calling card no. s . but when ever i use this application to dial a number , its not registering in the call history. Has any one faced this issue.
i have tried this with almost all rom s in this forum ( tnt, pandora kitchen, scaps, cyphol and v3pg)
Is there a solution for this or is there an alternative application to dial calling card...
thanks in advance
Hi,
We are having the same issues with Treo 750s and we've tried to get a hold of the Sunnysoft's support without any luck (ie calls hung up, emails unanswered).
There's another issue with WM6 phone gives you a 'Call Ended' popup which seems to slow down the speed at which this app works (as it seems to hang up in teh background on your call and redial using calling card, very slow).
Anyway just noticed that v1.1 just been posted on 1st of October, going to try that, no idea on whats new in it as product page is still listing v1.0 as latest.
Would be keen to find out of any other apps out there, surely its not that hard to make something like this that would work well.
*** Correction *** Seems like the so called v1.1 is actually v1.0, false alarm :-(
Typera, i have the same experience with this application. The version 1.1 that is out is the not the calling card but sunnysoft contact manager.
The other application that i use at times is called callingcard. THis one works fine but the limitation is that when you have to call a no. , you have to click on the contact and then select the option of " call using calling card" . so its so cumbersome.....
another one that i found is a inbulit calling card application in the inesoft contact manager but could not find a way to configure it.
i was looking out for some other better program that integrates both these but none seems to be available.....
hi drgopoos,
just tried the callingcard and its quiet a pain in the bum to use, not as easy given treo's quick finder thing from todays screen.
I did notice one change in the calling card app from sunnysoft download from today is ability to wait for dialtone, which if I recall correctly was not there 2-3 months ago. Maybe there's hope after all...slim as it may be.
I too started using it for a few months now , but i think that this feature ( dial tone) was present there even before..

Bluetooth Devices Lost

All,
I've just upgraded from WM5 to WM6 with HTC Home RevROM, which is excellent, however, I have this strange issue.
First, I paired my laptop through Internet Sharing over a Bluetooth PAN - works perfectly.
Second, I paired my Jabra BT2020 earpiece.
As soon as the Jabra was paired, the list of devices under Settings->Bluetooth->Devices was empty. Not even the words "Add new device" is present........
I have checked, and I can still continue to use my laptop through Internet Sharing, and I can also use my Jabra earpiece to take phone calls.
Switching the phone off/on and Soft Resets do not solve this problem. Only a hard reset will solve it - but then of course I have to re-enter everything - which I have done, only to have the problem re-occur, hence it is repeatable.
Has anyone else seen this issue and could help me with a solution. I have searched the forum (and Google) to no avail.
Many thanks,
BrianP6

Hey man, Unfortunatly this is a bug with my current kitchen, I believe he is using parts of it for making roms. I'm working to fix it soon in my kitchens.
Peace,
Josh
Thanks for the quick reply Josh,
Do you have any ideas at the moment as to the cause? Is it the number of connections, type of connections....... so that I can avoid the bug cropping up.
Also is there a workaround that you're aware of....
oh, and nice work chef

This bug appears only when 2 or more devices get paired.
I've been trying everything, even abusalza himself suggested some module replacement. i'm working on replacing drivers and certain folders in sys in my kitchen but still nothing yet... so far not yet, but it's fixable, i just gotta figure it out.
Thanks Josh,
I guess you'd know this anyway, but for completeness and for the benefit of the whole forum.........
Even though the paired devices are no longer shown in the Bluetooth Devices window, and you can no-longer use your HTC to pair more devices, then so long as you carefully initiate the pairing from the other device, it will be recognised, PINs will be requested and devices configured appropriately. I have just done:
Audi A4 in car kit
Laptop via Internet sharing
Jabra earpiece
None appear on the Devices window, but all (so far) appear to work perfectly.
Cheers,
Brian.
I have had a similar nagging problem with my Motorola S9 and Hermes 100/Cingular 8525. After a new flash, I can pair the headset and the phone relatively easily. During first pairing, I am *not* prompted for the headset's PIN. Over time, switching between phone and music functions becomes more unreliable. Icons disappear while the headset is in use. Discontinuing a call with the headset results in audio resuming through the external speaker instead of the headset, etc.
Eventually, out of the blue, the headset will fail to pair; and I will receive a prompt to enter the PIN number for the headset. I enter the PIN and the phone refuses to accept that it's the correct PIN. From that point on, I'm screwed until I reflash the phone. It never works properly anymore.
This has happened across multiple ROMS, including some of Josh's that I've tried. It happened again the day before yesterday with one of TAI_Sw's ROMS I'm currently using. In this case the profile in Bluetooth settings appeared to be corrupted. The profile no longer read "Motorola S9". Instead it showed a series of block characters (like unsupported fonts). I was able to delete the profile, and, after multiple resets (hard and soft) the phone finally redetected the headset and we went through the configuration wizard again. It's been mostly working well since then.
Has this happened to anyone else?

Yep, I have experienced everything you mentioned at one time or another, even the square characters showing up in the device list.
I have gone all the way back to test Faria R32 ROM. It's amongst the best I've found for A2DP with the S9's along with some of PDACorners early ROM's. The drawback are that it doesn't have the 1% battery increase .dll cooked in and also still exhibits the "numbers for character during a call" bug.
It does have nearly 31 MB of memory free after fresh install though. (using 4MB pagepool - default is 6MB)

It frustrated me enough that I started building my own rom!
I released one version here that I have been running for quite some time with no issues in the bluetooth at all.
I need to tweak it a bit more to make it "polished" but it is very useable and stable. I just wanted to run it for a while to see how it is going to act over a longer duration before I continue to fool with it, and I have been rather busy here lately.
Well, if you have a magic potion, please share with the community. And, by the way, this is the only device I pair to my Hermes; so this may be different from the problem Josh and others have described.

i just installed your new v15 color(thanks very much for that release it looks great) and i definitely want to pair 2 devices with the phone. this has worked for me in whichever random wm6 rom i found on the web last year and i have been trying to find the right rom for me this week so my question: is this a random bug, is there a trick to doing it right or am i just plain sol?
Hmmm - doesn't happen on my ROMs...
The suspect things I'd be looking at in SYS are:
Bluetooth
Bth_A2DP
Bth_HID
Try replacing those folders with known good ones and see if the problem still happens...

No Magic potion! lol
I basically did what CRCinAU described. (His rom doesn't have the issue, and feels a bit faster than mine. But, I was looking to create "My perfect rom").
But I also replaced files in the redist folder with "bt" in their name, with files from a known working rom (anryl's 20755). Like I said I wanted to run the rom for a while, now I just need to go back and tweak and clean up some things in the rom before I make another release.

it is a really odd issue and seems to only affect the hermes... Here is the deal, Some chefs when porting sys grab the cplmain.dll to get the build number and keep some other items in their kitchen sys for stability purposes... I have noticed in my experience when porting, if the cplmain.dll does not match some other components with the same build number it will cause this issue. usually resist, shell, os, folders have been containing these sensitive items. so in short, if the issue is occuring cplmain.dll in redist folder does not match other components in your sys causign the conflict.
edit, and oh. i've tried replacing all bluetooth which had no effect.
So to fix this, the chef needs to report sys correctly and recook the rom.

TellMe - new voice command

Looks like a replacement of voicecommand for 6.5. Searched XDA and surprisingly didn't find any threads.
http://www.mobileburn.com/news.jsp?Id=6918
looks great... gotta wait
Looks good! Can't wait to try it!
jaa if it works like they say it would then this could save quite some time
can't w8.. thx 4 the info
Tellme
There is a youtube video of guy using the Tellme software on his Samsung Omnia. GRRR so when can I get my copy and it sounds free? I guess I'll have to wait for the official website to e-mail me when the product is released. It's a shame that it seems windows mobile is always a day late and dollar short. I guess as a loyal customer I'm used to the wait. Especially since there is Zune HD confusion and wait time. Which sucks kind of since I just bought a 120 gig zune. BOOO yet again...
there we go... releases with WM 6.5... here's the link http://www.tellme.com/
the first 1 2 find a cab working on the X1 gets a sweety hehe
The problem I'm having is trying to find a way for people outside of the US to find a cab full stop.....
so voice command is now for US users only??
Anybody find a cab yet? I am In Canada so it wouldn't let me download..
http://www.wmexperts.com/microsofts-tellme-app-action
I have done a big search but cannot find a cab. Seems you can download it in the us though.
Is Tellme available for Windows Mobile phones?
Tellme is currently available only on the Samsung Intrepid Windows Mobile phone. Sign up to receive a message when your phone becomes supported
How do I get Tellme on a Samsung Intrepid?
Tellme comes preinstalled on Sprint's Samsung Intrepid. Simply launch the Tellme application from the desktop or press the dedicated speech key on your keyboard and follow the instructions on the screen.
So, unless we got the cab from Samsung, we won't have it soon.

Cyberon?
Probably a little bit of topic but did you see a new Cyberon voice commander?
It is now avaliable as a separate program in several languages, and Cyberon claims that it works with WM 6.5.
Unfortunately costs 20$, but 30 days demo is fully functional.
I’m using it couple days on a standard SE 6.1 and it works great. With JETware Hands-free Extension installed it even works with Bluetooth headset (calls can be initiated with the headset button).
http://www.cyberon.com.tw/order_Product_con.php?NO100=15
Tried to install the TEllme app on a 6.5 X1.. No dice.. looks like it installs but then program disappears. Anybody have luck with this?
try go to Program Files\Tell me it usually extracts all the files there and you can start it manually
the same with me, start program, nothing happens on HTC HD
did you try to search the install folder manually should be sth. like:
program files\Tellme\
try to search for "TellmeLauncher.exe" if you find the the install folder just double click the TellmeLauncher.exe.
Btw. for all who didn't know like me, you have to copy the installer to your pda and start it there. The installer launches on both the Windows PC as well as on the pda but on the Windows PC the installation brakes up at 72% with an error. So Simply copy the installer to your PDA and start it there and see it will install (at least unter WM 6.5, no luck on my Touch HD under 6.1 so far).
yes, of course. I tried to start it there, it starts for half a second and quits again
I have tried on R3a rom wm6.1 the program starts and gives message "starting tell me for the first time" and loads but then gives a message "unable to complete at this time please try again later". I assume it does not work on WM6.1

I had that too and I had to install voice command too then it worked perfect.

Die_Leuchte
Yes as above:
Only works on WM6.5
you need to install microsoft voice command
you need also to install tell me
The program works now but to be honest is crap at trying to understand me and takes forever to recognise what I have said.
After 20 times of saying "text Dan" it worked twice and then it would not recognise what I wanted to text.

Problems with TomTom7 on Touch Pro 2

Hi, I see some threads that suggest TomTom 7 can be installed on a Touch Pro 2. I bought TomTom 7 on micro SD and it won't run. I get a message "Your device is not compatible with this version of TomTom NAVIGATOR!" Is there something simple that I am missing that is causing this. TomTom support were no help.
Offtopic: Why not ask your question in one of the threads you have found
Ontopic: Officially the TP2 is not supported at this moment. It will work, just ask Google
Hi PGLion.
I started a new thread because none of the other threads were actually about TomTom7 on the TP2, they just gave me hope!
On the ask Google suggestion, I may be a bit slow, but I have not found anything that helps me. If you have a link that you think will help, I'd be very grateful if you could post it.
TT7 on TP2

Has anyone got TT7 working on TP2 yet? I've checked on google can't find a copy
Thanks.

yes,
try >"7.910" "(9196)"< as search terms in google.
before installing that version you should also chek the reports of other users stating that after installation bluetooth stopped working.
You want "ttn7.915.9196.vga_black.cab"
Works fine.
In fact a quick google takes us to this very site:

Bluetooth still working fine for me.
Yes, TomTom7 DOES work on TouchPro2. I use it almost daily. It's very nice.
But it DOES cripple bluetooth (at least the build that I'm using). It replaces a couple of bluetooth drivers in your Windows directory that are incompatable (or so it appears).
If anyone's having issues with this, PM me. I'll find the thread (I think it was at PPCGeeks) that has instructions re: fixing it.

To save looking - you will need to rename or delete the following dll files in the \windows directory:

i too can confirm that TT7 works on TP2, might be best you use a software called cabinstl to install the cab file to your required location
The biggest problem I'm having is some serious GPS lag on my Verizon Touch Pro2 running TomTom (I've tried v6 and v7).
TOMTOM 7 install issues on Tilt 2
Has anyone had problems with the install going automatically to the device and not having enough memory to run?
Mine works, but I have a few issues. The physical keyboard doesn't work correctly (when I type, I get multiple non-english characters entered, but the on-screen keyboard is fine). The keyboard on my previous Tilt (original) worked fine with TT6. It also appears that there's no GPS: it shows reception of 0 satellites, yet it works fine. Seems way to accurate to be getting position from cell phone triangulation. Also, I'm using the "black VGA" map, but there appears to be an issue with POIs. Gas stations were shown on screen in completely undeveloped areas. Fortunately, I wasn't looking for gas.
TT7 (V7.915) working OK on my stock UK Vodafone (WM6.1) TP2 with no major lag or loss of any other features. Gets a lock fairly quickly (10-30 seconds).
Custom POIs are accurate and as expected.
Satellite reporting is behaving itself.
Hardware keyboard: Worked fine first go, then started printing double/foreign characters (eg: A gave A+A(Umlaut)), then back to OK after I went into soft keyboard settings and re-selected English. Exited TT, came back in and hardware keyboard seems OK still.
The only major issue I have is that TT sometimes crashes while loading ("We're sorry..." Windows error screen) and I have to turn the phone off/on to get TT going again.
