Static/clicking sounds on New Microsoft Voice Cmd Ver.1.5

Does anyone have Microsoft voice command version 1.5? And if you do, with the incoming caller announcement enabled, do you get a static clicking sound on your phone device when you get and incoming phone call? I am using a XDA IIs and have this issue. Is there a work around for this issue? Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
Thanks,
Mike

I too have the problem of sound stuttering.
I've never installed any version of voice command.
Al applications playing sound, like media player or any other music player and even the spoken words from TomTom seem to suffer from this.
Since all WAV/MP3 audio seems te suffer from this I gather it must be a CODEC issue of some sort, probably caused by installing some application that has overwritten system files.
Does anybody know a way to solve this ?
It does not seem to occur after a hard reset, I havent tried reinstalling applications one by one to find the culprit, I just restored a Sprite backup.

Yes, I've got the same problem... I just upgraded to VC1.5, and the clicking is only on the announcement of incoming calls... all else seems fine.
Treo

same here with my pda2k.

I have the same issue.
To solve that, Just disable this function.
Tap at start >setting >personal >voice command
at Phone option disable "Announce incoming calls"
I think version 1.5 has so many option that you can select more that the old one.
Voice command over bluetooth is still not work.

I'm afraid this is a more general problem (see earlier threads). There are also problems with WM10 and GPS. I've found that WM10 is OK when No other programm is running. GPS is a larger programm and continues to give voice problems. Maybe the problem can be solved if we could increase the working memory. Who has a suggestion?

I know un checking that option will fix the issue but then I can't use it. So it does not solve the issue. LOL so if anyone does know a way to make the audio a higher priority or something to make it work please let me know.
Thanks,
Mike

Fixed it, you have to use resco and change audio priority in settings to 110 in registry. Works like a charm now.

Hi Mikee4fun,
Could you be more specific about which key/value/data in registry that you changed to fix this?
Thanks in forehand!

Can you share the registry entry that needs to be changed?

Ditto, I'd like to know too please cos I've got the same problem.
Own an XDAIIs and use Microsoft Voice Command 1.5 with the stuttery incoming call announcements. Everything else works flawlessly.
Is Microsoft Voice Command the dogs b*ll*cks when it comes to voice recognition! It's the most accurate voice recognition system I've come across. Well done Microsoft, you've made something that works well (for a change ) , apart from stuttery voice announcements of course.

anybody experiencing about 1 to 2 second lag before the ringtone actually rings when you have incoming calls with announce incoming call enabled?
I'm having voice command installed on my Storage area of my Xda ii mini. I'm wondering if that's the reason why it lags?

Here is the exact registry entry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\Priority256
A detailed thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=107031#107031

Well I just noticed this static noise while announcing the name with MVC or playing any other audio on the Blue angel only, I tried it on the hima it works flawlessly it never occured

VC 1.5 static problems
:twisted: yup just tried the fix with resco registry editor and all is fine
thx for the info
just another reason why this site is so good imo

8525 + Jawbone + 3 seperate ROMS = No Sound!!!

Now before anyone goes bashing me for not searching the forum, lemme tell everyone, I've done just that. I just haven't found the answer to my problem.
I recently acquired an 8525 (which I'm loving BTW ). I have a Jawbone headset that pairs up fine with all of my phones (BB Pearl, 8125, & 8525). Only problem is, I can actually *use* the Jawbone with my Pearl and my Wizard, just not my Hermes.
I've paired, deleted, and re-paired again but to no avail. I've tried to get an actual conversation going using 3 different ROMs: AT&T's official WM6, Schaps 4.30 Full, and vp3G's 3.62 Full, but nothing works. I've reset the Jawbone more times than I can count, and I still can't use it.
ANY input on this would be GREATLY appreciated, since I actually *need* to use it for work...

I am currently using my Jawbone with Schnaps 4.01 Lite rom and no problem. Before that I have been using all of Matt's Pandora Kitchen roms, right up to the latest and never had a problem. I ran Schnaps 4.30 Full rom too, but really can't remember if I used the Jawbone during the testing time. If someone else can't help I can flash that rom again and test the Jawbone with it too. Let me know ho wit goes.

works with vp3g3.62. no issues, didnt require anything special. Does bt radio on your 8525 work?

I have an 8525 running Schaps 4.30 with radio 1.48.00 and mine is working. I did however have to return one Jawbone because it would connect and I could hear the conversation but the mic didn't pick up my voice. I tried that one on my wife's razor and it had the same symptoms though. What radio are you running?

Using with TNT's latest ROM and no problems, however not real impressed with Jawbone so far. Most people I call say it sounds "tinny".

AFAIK, the BT radio works. Like I said, I can pair up with it just fine, and even see the other BT-enabled phones/devices at my job. I just can't get any type of audio from my JB. I'm currently using vp3G as well.
UPDATE: Well to be on the safe side, I tested my Jawbone on a couple other phones; sure enough it's working fine, so it's got to be something up with my poor Hermes... Any advice?

Mine Jawbone Works fine also. I remember when I first got it I was having trouble with my sound. I remember changing the audio bitrate from 48 bit to 44 bit in the advanced config utility 1.1 Also try changing the stereo setting to mono.
May help you out, hope so.

Just a quick update: I reflashed vp3G's 3.62 ROM, reset my JB and repaired it; same effect, nothing. Just to be on the safe side I paired the JB with my Wizard, BB Pearl, and a couple of phones at my store and it works as it should.
@ mthomas: I'm using 1.48.00 for my radio. Since you and I seem to have the same type of setup, did you install any other cabs that help your BT out?

Do you have another Bluetooth headset to test. Even thought it can pair ok, it only means the "data" channel is working. The problem could easily be the voice channel which is not working. If possible, may be borrow another headset to try.

That's my next idea. I think I have an old Plantronics I can charge up and test out...

*BUMP!*
Gotta keep this fresh. Funny thing I noticed though: when I have the Jawbone connected and the phone rings, I still hear it's little tone in my ear, but no audio comes or goes through. No registry edits have been made; I've even done a hard reset, re-paired and tried again, to no avail.
C'mon you guys! Why am I the only 8525/Jawbone user around here that *can't* use his Jawbone??? Help me out here...

wish i had the answer. im using the most current att radio 1.54.07.00. how did your device work w/ another headset?no additional tweaks

Okay, now I'm getting pissed.
I tried using my old Plantronics 320. It pairs fine with the Hermes, but making phone calls is a no-go.
The only thing I removed (from anyone using vp3G's 3.62 Full) was Sleuth's PTT Fix; I need PTT more than being able to re-map the button. So I doubt this is the culprit.
WTH can't I use my good Jawbone with this thing?!?!

Quick *bump*

Same Problem
I have tried everything, I can hear the calls just fine but no sound from my mic. I have paired with other phones & it works fine. Please let me know if you find a fix!!

UPDATE: I tried using a Moto H700 and a Plantronics 340-no dice. Now I'm starting to think if it's a BT stack issue...

Now I'm completely stumped. I just flashed back to the original ATT WM5 rom, paired up, SR, then made a phone call to my 8525 from my house line. Jawbone rang in my ear, sure. I answer the call, no sound.
Could there be a problem with my BT radio? And if there is, how can I be sure/troubleshoot it?

Just throwing someting into the pot. have you tried unpairing it with your other phones? I know i was trying to pair my to my wifes and it would work because it was paired to my phone. Try deleting the relationship between the other phones. Other than that if its new enough just take it back and get another

Good thought... But I already did that, still no joy. In fact, I just flashed over to HTC's official TyTN rom, and still nothing. I'm going to call a friend of mine and see if I can get it to work on their 8525. Here's a good ? tho: Should it matter if it's Cingular or AT&T branded? Are there any differences in hardware between the two types? Or could it be a faulty BT radio? I'm racking my brain trying to figure this out.
Worse comes to worse, I'm sure I could exchange my Jawbone; I *do* work for AT&T so it should be okay...

Okay, here's another question: If I were to flash *ALL* the way down to the original Cingular shipped ROM, RUU_HER_Cingular_1.34.502.1_1.16.00.00_wwe_cws_ship, would this have any effect on the BT stack? I'm only asking because I can't seem to find any type of information about replacing the built-in stack (outside of the Widcomm project and that's too beta for me ATM), and I still can't understand why so many headsets that I've tried with this damned 8525 don't seem to work, but so many people here @ XDA can use theirs. There's no differences between the Cingular branded and AT&T branded models (at least hardware/software-wise), and if I pair up my trusty Jawbone with another 8525 (AT&T branded, btw), it works fine.
I know I've been going back and forth with this, but I did pay a good amount for my 8525 and I don't want it to be partially or mostly functional. Hell, if my poor Wizard can handle my Jawbone, why can't my Hermes?
BTW, thanks for all of the suggestions you guys have given me to help me with this problem. Even though none of them have worked, I still need to give props where they're due.

diff ROM's and MSVC over bluetooth?

it's awesome to have so many rom's to put on our hermes...but i still haven't come across any single rom that works flawlessly with MS voice command over bluetooth...it seems not many people care about voice dialing then
so do u guys use msvc? if so, what rom? i have searched few threads and some people claimed that this or that rom works but they don't atleast for me..after reset or day after...all stops work1ing...
please help me find my dream rom!!

I don't know how many times I have answered this but it depends on the headset and what version of MS VC you install and what hacks.
I use the Jabra BT8010 and everything works fine for me. I can not live without voice command its the first thing I install..
My ROM info is below..

i use VC 1.6 and plantronics 320...my brother has treo 750 and plantronics work flawlessly with vc...i dont understand y not on hermes?

Basicly the MS BT stack sucks and it doesn't appear like they are worried about fixing it. If you want pretty much all sounds going to the bt headset then its gonna have to be one that has the AD2P profile along with the standard headset profile.

I use VC 1.6 and a Jabra, though it doesn't work very well, I have to shout the name, and it still brings up the wrong contact. Any advice most welcome

Any advice welcome

Callers can't hear me

So recently I've been having this weird issue where callers call and I'll answer but they can't hear me. It happens when I call out too. I'm not using any headsets or anything, but it seemed like it started happening when I started turning on bluetooth and leaving it on. But if I have my headset on, that part works fine, they can hear me. I had a custom rom that I cooked myself that seemed to work fine until then.
So I figure I'd ditch my own rom thinking maybe I screwed something up while cooking it, so now I'm using PDAVIET DV's most recent rom. I tested it all yesterday and it seemed fine, but then that night I got a few calls that couldn't hear me again.
This morning things were fine again, after I shut it off then back on. I made a lot of calls out and in from another cell phone, and it worked fine. Then while I was waiting for a phone interview, it didn't work again. Is anyone else having this issue? Or does anyone know why it's happening?
I'm starting to think may it's a sleep issue, because the only thing my phone did in the time between my this morning's testing and the phone interview, was it sat idle in standby mode.
Any Ideas?

Which radio are you using and who is your carrier?

What OS are you using? Does a soft reset fix it?

My own custom WM6.1 19209 rom, but also happens on DVH 19701 also. Soft reset doesnt seem to help, but power off, and back on does help until phone goes back to standby.

I just realized I have a sound issue also. I almost always use my bluetooth headset, but yesterday I tried just talking on the phone and the other person could not hear me. I reset the phone and it worked again, but only for a while. I noticed though that when it stops sending my voice to the other person, I can still hear myself in my earpiece. I even loaded Voice Recorder after it quit sending my voice over the phone and it recorded my voice just fine, so I know this is not a hardware issue. Has anyone else experienced this?
EDIT - I did a soft reset, and it didn't fix the problem. I disabled 3G, soft reset, and it worked again for now. Could this be radio related?
EDIT 2 - Disabling 3G wasn't the answer. I did that again and it didn't work this time. Might try a different ROM and see if the issue persists.

This sound issue appeared to me after I installed google maps or new dialpad. I can call to people but after I while talking sound is fading and in the end others can not hear me but I can hear them. Soft reset helps for a while but this issue appears again in next call after few minutes.

Ok just consolidating our issue into my original thread from last week.
I've resorted to not installing all my usual software, and only have this installed so far:
Schap's 2G Dialer
Schap's Advanced Configuration Tool
6 Button Comm Manager
HTC Home Plugin
ELF Calculator skin
Arcsoft MMS 5.0.31.11
HTC Connection Setup
no2chem nueLED
And so far (for two days) I haven't had any issues... here's the software I have yet to install that I usually install:
ATIFix
Cyberon VoiceCommander or MS Voice Command (thought it was one of these but it turned out not)
GoogleMaps
MS Office 2007
WindowsLive10.6.0034.0800
SRS_WOWHD_bt_fixed
TCMPv0.81
FlashVideoBundle
I was thinking maybe it was because of bluetooth being on or something too.

SRS WowHD do that issue. Download another version of that program and phone will be all right.

Mine has gone all day and it seems to be working. I think it's the SRS_WOWHD_bt_fixed cab like wikiri mentioned.

I have flashed official AT&T-ROM, then hardSPLv7, then PDAViet 19900-rom and after that radio rom 1.47.30.10. Mic works sometimes but most of the time it does not. I do not have any issues with roms no hard-reset or anything else wierd but this mic thing.
My PDA is just repaired and switchboard has been replaced and some other components. They said everything should be working and it is tested.
I have installed only ConnectionSettings.cab and latest live-messenger. Mic does not work on phone calls or when recording something.
So could this still be hardware issue?

My phone is doing the same thing.
How do you fix the SRS_WOWHD_bt_fixed cab?
Is it a patch or a setting you can manually change in the Phone.

Voice Command

is there any rom that works with MS Voice Command?
It seems that on Stock roms it causes all sorts of bugs (internet connection shutting down etc, and then stops working?)
With 1000 contacts, Cyberion is not too useful?
And yes people. I have googled and searched please keep flame throwers off....

Hi,
have you tried this patch (link below)? It's for Elf, but perhaps it also works on Diamond.
I can't test it atm, cause my ordered Diamond was shipped today, so I have to wait a few more days

Hi,
can you tell me your version of VC?
Greets

@mikeycollins13
Today I get my Diamond. My 'old' VC works perfect.
VC version: 1.60.4622.0 with patch from link above.

Activating Voice Command
I currently have a kaiser and am considering a daimond. One hesitation is, how can you activate voice command on the diamond without having a button to map it too? I know it will also work via a headset, but what about just by using the phone itself?
