Ok. So I finally got Voice Command installed on my device. Problem is that when I go to use the default record button "Home" key to start it the device loads voice dialing instead. I was wondering if anyone knew how to disable/uninstall voice dialing completely since having two voice programs doesn't make any sense.
Background on device: T-Mobile Dash App Unlocked/CID Unlocked (using the WM5toWM6 thread) on Brightpoint ROM with Smart Tool Kit 8
Thanks
I can't take credit for this because I found this in another thread, but if you go into the voice command setup and set the activation button to app3 then the home key will work.
I could have sworn I tried that. I really did. lol thanks
I had the same thought when I read it in the other thread. I was so frustrated and then my prayers were answered...lol

WM6 Voice Command 1.6
Voice Command is a very powerful program that will allow you to control your WM6 Excalibur with your voice.
Hands-free phone
Dial your phone by voice using the phone number
Contact lookup
View contacts with a voice command
Have the subject, time, and location of upcoming appointments read to you
Media player
Program starter
Device Status
Enable Voice Command
Start > Voice Command
Voice Enabled > Yes
Announcement Routing > Bluetooth if Available
This setting will allow Voice Command to use the Excalibur phone speaker to respond to vocal commands, if you don't have a bluetooth headset connected.
IMPORTANT: Soft Reset to enable the changes to Voice Command
After the soft reset, press and hold the home key. This is the default Record Application Button which activates Voice Command. When you hear the beep say, "Help". Voice command will then guide you through the available voice commands.
IMPORTANT: Do not talk directly into the microphone. Hold the phone 4 inches/100mm from your voice. The response from Voice Command will take a few seconds.
A Voice Command tutorial from Microsoft is here.
Enable Voice Command with a Bluetooth Headset
With the current beta release of WM6, you need to modify the following registry settings to use your bluetooth headset with this feature.
NOTE: Your Excalibur has to be application unlocked to make modifications to the registry.
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTA GExtModule
The string value needs to be changed from "OEMAGW.dll" to "\Windows\vcbthag.dll".
IMPORTANT: Soft Reset to enable the changes to Voice Command
After the phone reboots, your bluetooth headset will now be able to use Voice Command by pressing the button on your headset. Wait for the beep, then speak the command.
Viel Spaß mit Voice Command,

thanks you
Most of time, Voice Command works fine, but those times it doesn't more than make up for the times that it does
Great job with this, it's working pretty good for me with my BT headset. Very nice!!!!
add voice tag feature is gone.
I tried voice command 1.6 did not like it and now my dash has no add voice tag feature. How do I get it back?
Try a hard reset?

Try a hard reset. That should restore it to factory settings. You'll have to input your ActiveSync settings again and install any other apps you want.
I agree. I have VC1.6 on my WM6 and I am really dissapointed with my experience. I watched that very detailed video tour of the program before it was released and it made it seem like it cooked dinner, shoveled the snow, and aced all my exams. However, I find myself constantly arguing with the stupid lady voice about her being deaf, not being able to pronounce/recognize the right way my friends are called, and just being plain dumb. I thought it would be really useful while driving, but 80% of the time I give up and press the keys away to get what I want.
No thanks!
I Love Miss Botron's Voice, Works like a Charm!
To jromney: well said, thanks guy, it works like a charm on my Dash! Now I love VC, like you said, it a powerful application. I have Miss. Botron's voice volume turned up to the max. The Girl is alright with me!(lol) We talk all the time!(lol) By the way jromney, you got the best VC bluetooth headset fix on the planet, so easy a caveman can do it! (lol) Works perfect with my Plantronics 590A bluetooth headset!
Nice Software + voice speed dial
For those of you that have problems dialing strange non English names I fod a good way of dialing. In my HTC p3300 I have a software called Voice speed dial. With it I can make a voice tags forall my contacts. Then on my BT a2dp I press the utton for voice dialing, then I say "Start Voice Speed Dial" then it turnes on the voice speed dial and I say the name "name" and then the voice speed dial recognizes it on the spot.
I works very nice.
Would anyone like to share the file for voice command or split the cost on the purchase from handango. I do miss that feature of having messages read aloud and commanding programs via voice.
???
i am pretty new to the whole voice command thing and i know that it CAN read my text message out loud, i just don't know HOW to make it happen, please help me
thanks in advance
Sick of Microsoft voice commander 1.6 problems on wm6??
Try this great alternative "Vito Voice2Go v1.51"
Just search it in ed2k or p2p search engine by:" Vito Technology Vito Voice2Go v1.51 Xscale Wm2003 Wm5 Wm6 Cracked-Sympda.zip"
Don’t forget to disable the "mwc 1.6" if you installed it earlier
And make sure you change the voice command button to "voice2go" program
Didn’t try it yet with Bluetooth headset
All the best Miteranix

Hi,
I have the BT HTC S620 on RickyWatts 6.1 ROM
I used to be able to use ms voice command which seemed to be built in..
but then it stopped working and now when i hold down home (voice command key) it beeps at me before saying "there is no trained voice tag"
anyone have this problem or know how to fix it?
Sorry if this has already been posted...search doesnt seem to be working...
Thanks,
Matt
when you installed 6.1 you didnt pick Microsoft VC. You picked cyberon Voice Command.
"Difference between these two kinds of voice command is that Cyberon voice uses voice-tags that you record, whereas ms voice command doesn't need you to record voice tags(but spoken language only support English"
look for VCSwitch.ccs in your phones \windows folder. Run it with Resco Explorer. That will enable Microsoft Voice Command.
....stupid thing wont work...
i got this screen when i first booted my device in this ROM
It doesnt let me scroll down to select MS Voice Command

Voice Announcements
I have a question about Voice command and annoumcements. Before I updated to to rickywatts 6.1 I use to get announcements for everything. New text message and whom it was from would be read to me, email headers and whom they were from. Even incoming calls would be announced. Well with the new 6.1, I only get the first one announced after a reboot and nothing after that. I have to reboot again if I want to hear another one. Any ideas on why this is happening. Not just with rickywatts version. I first had kavanas and the same thing would happen. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,

did you check your setting on voice command?, what is your announcement routing? are announcements set to always or to free time only? etc.
My Voice Command settings
Yes....I think the setting are set correctly...forgot to mention those..sorry.
Voice enabled - yes
Voice button - record
Availability - Always available
Announcment Routing - bluetooth only
Announcements - Always
Call confirmations - yes
Announce Calls - yes
Announce Messaging - yes
Calendar Reminders - yes
Media Selections - yes
I believe that's all of them unless I'm missing something.

If you have announcement routing set to bluetooth only, you wont hear them unless you're wearing a bluetooth headset , and you'll hear it thru your head set. You should try bluetooth if available instead for the routing and see if that works.
I have tried the other routing choices just to see if it would make a difference, but it did not. I always have my bluetooth on at work. My hands are usually in the middle of a project when someone would call or my emails and text's arrive....so with the bluetooth on, I was able to hear who was calling or what the text or email was about without having to stop what I was doing and remove my phone from it's pouch to take a look. That was with T-Mobile's WM6.0. I don't want to return to that....I love 6.1 enough to learn to live without voice announce, but if someone knows what is conflicting with it...all the better. It might be that the whole bluetooth software(or whatever it may be called) isn't right at all. When a phone call comes in, I should only hear it ringing in my bluetooth....right? Well, sometimes, not all the time, I hear it coming from the phone too. Same with text and email alerts. When I have the bluetooth on, the alerts should only be heard through the bluetooth, but same problem. I don't know.....what's next? Anyone....?
Works without BT
Well...I tried the voice announce without the bluetooth and it works just fine everytime without fail....something new must be wrong with my bluetooth headset because this was not happening in WM6.0....don't know what to next.
thanks,
Hello all,
Can you help me with these questions? I'd really appreciate it.
1. When I hit the top button, my Incredible locks. I have to unlock it with a password because of Exchange Active Sync policies. Can I instead make it go into a simpler "slide-to-unlock" mode with the top button before the password lock kicks in later?
2. Running stock (out of the box), can it read me my text messages? If not, what app do you recommend?
3. "Install Voice Data" is grayed out in the TTS settings. Does that mean I can't install it or is it already installed?
4. Voice dial gives me only one chance to get a command right. I say a command and I only get "OK" or "Cancel" on the screen.
All of the my previous phones would say aloud what it thought I said and ask me if it was correct or if I wanted to try again. Can the Incredible do that? If not, is there an app that can?
5. No dedicated hard button to activate voice dial or the phone dial pad. Do I need to pair a headset to get functionality like that?
6. Voice dial doesn't recognize first name, last name. It's last name, first name. I forget where, but I can change that, right? Where's that setting?
I appreciate any help!

5. If you hold the search button on the lower right of the phone it goes into voice mode. From there you can search your phone & voice dial from there.
6. Are you sure about that, mine seems to be working correctly by doing the above.
Put some answers inline here.

Android does not support the handsfree profile, so getting a handset won't work to solve this problem. Really stupid, I know.
6. Voice dial doesn't recognize first name, last name. It's last name, first name. I forget where, but I can change that, right? Where's that setting?
This just depends on how your contacts are set up I think

Hi,
While I have had my Evo for 5 or so months, I had a question about using voice dialing. On my old Windows Mobile phone, I could just launch voice command & say "Call Jill at Home".
When I hold the search button on the phone & say the same thing, it either searches google, or it gives me an option to dial someone not in my phone list (some random store for example).
Is there a proper way to make this work? I figure if MS could do it, it shouldnt be a problem on Android.
Thanks,
Rich

Are your contact saved as google account? If not then you will need to them re-saved as google accounts. Also try this: when you press the search button, press and hold it down. Mine gives me two options: voice search and handcent quick compose.
Im using MS exchange & the defaults contacts application. Are you saying the only way to make this work properly is to import my contacts into my Gmail account (which I only use for the market access not email)?
THanks,
Rich
Hi Guys-I did search on this forum, google search and on Sprint's website. The answer on Sprint does not seem to apply to this phone and only allows me to change the pin. Is there a way to not have to use? I remember when activated phone and set up first time there was a choice to use pin or not. I cannot find how to disable this now.
Thank You,
Doc
Call your voicemail by pressing and holding the 1 button.
Now press 4 for options.
On mine, it says I have chosen to skip my voicemail passcode, press 1 to turn it on. I'm guessing it should be the opposite for you.
If the above does not work, press 7 to go into expert mode and you can change it there. HTH.
Thanks itbmd. It seems I created my own problem by trying the Google Voice using my sprint number. Apparently the settings for google voice voicemail are different and do not allow going without a passcode. When I disabled google voice it then removed voicemail completely from my sprint accountT. I had to call sprint and had the voicemail added back. Last time I will try this again!
Thanks,
Doc
