Hi,
Is there any way to have Voice Dial to work via Bluetooth with Oxygen 2 on Desire ?
I am getting a kind of two "bong" audio feedback on the bluetooth device when I hit the command button instead of being asked to say a command. Getting the same thing when VoiceSearch and TTS is installed...
And it works fine when using Redux, CM or older Oxygen version.
bye.
Is there really nobody using VoiceDial over Bluetooth with Oxygen on their Desire ????
I am also facing the same problem.
Other roms I installed supported it out of the box (Don´t remember which..)
I guess we'll have to do some research unless someone comes up with the solution...
Actually I found it.
LeeDroid supports voice dial. (But it's not Gingerbread based)

Hi All
I'm trying to track down a rom which has Bluetooth DUN installed. CyanogenMod 5.0.8 test 7 has it installed but the rom is a wee bit buggy. Any recommends?

I'm just wondering, why do you need BT DUN when you have wifi tethering?
I need bluetooth DUN so my TomTom GPS can talk to my phone
Try to search "pda net" in Market. Is it what you want ?
Hi
Nope been there, tried that
It does not have full DUN, i.e. it won't talk to TomTom. Sent them a email asking for help.

does tomtom work on android ???
Yes, install CyanogenMod 5.0.8 test 7 and Tomtom will work with traffic updates (which is what I want DUN for). This early test is just a wee bit buggy for day 2 day use.
Its an issue that has been long outstanding:

There is even a module which could be compliled, which is in 5.0.8 test 7:

I agree, it would be nice to have this
Might have a play see if its possible somehow. Busy schedule though, but I'll say if I have any success...
because CM5 supports it, maybe CM6 supports it, too. And if CM6 supports it, then maybe OpenDesire and DeFrost which are mods of CM6, too.
I've tried both cm6 and frost. Both from what I can see neither has it installed. Anyone else confirm?

*UPDATE*
I've now tried both (thanks to Rom Manager) and neither have BT DUN.

Any luck in finding anything?
So it seems Bluetooth DUN is not very popular these days (probably because most are using WiFi which is faster, in terms of speed and battery drain).
But I really need it for my new Mercedes C-class which has 'Comand Online' with internet connectivity based on BT DUN. Currently only most Nokia and Blackberry models are supported because they have native Bluetooth DUN.
Programs like PdaNet won't work because they need a client running on the device and I obviously cannot install anything on the Comand Online (no it's not a typo ) system of the Mercedes.
Any suggestions for a decent BT DUN program or Android ROM/kernel? A proper BT DUN implementation should obviously be done in the kernel. I read reports that Moto Droid X devices had success in similar scenario's and CM5 was supposed to have it in it's kernel... :-(
Anyone?
Bump...anyone?
This would be great but i think its a goooooole thing...
The only way i think thiswill happen is with a custom rom.
Hi there,
I've searched this great forum for this piece of information and haven't found it, so here goes:
I was about to buy a Desire HD and then I read several users reporting absence of voice dialing over a bluetooth headset. I have to be sure about this, because it would be a deal breaker for me. Apart from this the DHD seems to be a device that fits my needs perfectly.
Hope you guys can help me out.
Thanks for your help in advance
best regards

it does do voice dialing over bluetooth with android 2.2 and up, hope that's useful for you.
thanks for answering
I heard that Froyo solved the issue, but that there was still a problem with the Desire HD regarding this feature. could you just confirm that it works. do you have the dhd and tested it yourself? Hope you don't mind my asking, but I don't want to buy a USD 500 phone and find out that this very important feature for me doesnt work. So could you kindly tell me if your info is based on your personal experience with it?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
i am also very curious about this question. I was searching the internet and did not find information about how to get this feature to work. It is not so important for me, as for my father (he owns desire 2.2 fw), but i will also appriciate it. It`s mostly needed in car and it`s quite dangerous without it, i think you know what i am talking about. Thank you for your answers.
I tried voice dialing using Google's Android Voice Actions which worked. However, I did not use bluetooth headset.
I understand there is another app that does voice dialing too (became free from USD$10) which name I cannot recall now.
I believe these can do the job you require.
*Edit* The name of the other app is Vlingo. You can try it out.
just tried Google Voice Search with my BT headset (Plantronics 975) and long-pressing the button didn't get me anywhere...
let's see if Vlingo works
if anyone has a solution it would be very appreciated, since having to tap the phone while driving completely misses the point of using a bluetooth headset in the car.
best regards
André
I have a 10 day old desire hd, it does indeed come with a voice dialer (cyberon voice commander) - at least the telus version of the phone does.
I've not had issues with getting the voice dialing to work...
BUT, after much troubleshooting, I have found that whe the cyberon voice commander app is running, the phone's external speaker volume becomes much quieter - the result: it can be difficult to hear your phone ring in an environment that is not extremely quiet.
the fix: force close the voice commander.
I'm currently in search of a replacement voice dialer app to replace it with
Revolution HD 3.0 is based on Froyo 2.2.1 and I am not able to dial via BT.
There is no response to BT button!
Froyo 2.2 should solve this problem. Should.... In my case this is still issue.
ps. My BT is Plantronics 975
Vlingo does not work with BT Headset long-press button, but it's kind of a workaround. Very, VERY big mistake on behalf of HTC in not making handsfree BT headset voice dialing work, at least until now. I've been escalated in the HTC support, but up to now the only thing they told me is that i works with the plantronics 220. I asked them why it doesn't work with Plantronics 975, since it is their top-of-the-line headset and am waiting for an answer.
If this doesn't get fixed soon it'll be a dealbreaker for me.
Hope someone has a clue as to how to solve this.
best regards
André

it has the voicedialer.apk which works along side with google voice actions (does not replace it) and allows you to voice dial with a long press of the bluetooth button.
I installed it this morining, works great. It is included in LeeDroid Rom.

Thanks a lot. Will try it later this evening Does my DHD have to be rooted in order to use it?
Vlingo was working rather well will bt heaset long button press until the update to 3.0. now I have to interact with the screen, which defeats Voice Dialing with BT headset for me.
Does anyone have another solution which works well for BT Headset Voice Dialing?
Best regards

I'm having problems getting voice dialing to work with the bluetooth headset as well. I've tried both RCMix3D Runnymede 1.4 and Android Revolution 6.1.1. It was very difficult to get the headset connect and it won't reconnect automatically. Further, the voice dialing app was missing from one of the ROMs and when bluetooth voice dialer starts up on the other one, it freezes the phone and you have to pull the battery which you know is a nightmare on this phone. Note that bluetooth will work when the phone is used to do the dialing but I need to be able to initiate this from the headset so it is truly hands-free to satisfy safe driving laws.
Does anyone have bluetooth voice dialing working on their Desire HD where it is invoked from a tap on the bluetooth device? Please post which ROM you are using and any special tricks required to set it up.
Thank you.
As a followup, I installed LeeDroid to try that out. It is still difficult to connect to the headset and reconnect automatically. However, once it is connected, handsfree bluetooth dialing works!
Can anyone tell me what needs to be fixed to make the BT connection work properly?
Was wondering if Coredroid 7.0 supports sharing phone contacts via bluetooth? I have a Motorola Roadster Bluetooth device in my car and hoped my phone contact list could be shared so I could voice dial using it.
I'm having the following issues:
1) Takes a long time to connect..phone shows paired but not connected (after several minutes it may or may not connect)
2) Doesn't allow me to voicedial (Get an FC if I hit the voicedial button on Roadster)
3) Doesn't support accessing phonebook via bluetooth?
Love the Rom....just wish I could use bluetooth device in my car. Anyone else having issues?
I too am seeing the voice dialer FC when activated from BT but it seems to work fine when initiated from the phone. Would be nice to be able to initiate voice dial from my BT headset. Have done some reading on this issue and appears to be occurring with many roms so it might not be a coredroid issue or even an issue coredroid can fix??

I ended up downloading Vlingo from the market. Voice dialing now works fine with my bluetooth Motorola roadster.

Are you able to use the bluetooth button, with the screen off, to initiate a dial?
I can't seem to find anything that works well to leave the phone in my bag in the back seat, and make a call.
Hello everybody,
I've installed the latest version of mike's Android Revolution HD (5.1.11) ROM (and the 5.1.x versions before). Before I used version 3.x of Revolution HD.
Since I use version 5.1.x, I'm no more able to use my bluetooth headset for phone calls. Even though the headset is set as default, it is not used.
If I try to change the device while doing a call it is also using the internal mic and speaker. Listening to music via bluetooth headset is working fine.
With version 3.x everything was working fine.
Is there anything I can do?
Many thanks in advance!

I, too, am having problem with bluetooth headset not working.
I wasnt allowed to post inside the developers area coz am a newbie. Sorry if i dont know where else to post so again sorry in advance... am all new to the android world (1st time getting an android fone SG Note2 and then 1st time flashing a ROM (AR HD 5.0)).
My problem is when im trying to use any kind of bt stereo headset it just wont work. Ive paired/unpaired/paired again but still no go. Tried using the BT stereo headset to other smartphones and all go.
I havent installed any multimedia apps that might mess up the recently installed/flashed AR HD 5.0.
Can anyone please help me. Ive tried reading/scanning the developer's forum thread but cant seem to find any workaround here....
Please please dont scorn me for being so stupid about the bt issue that im having...
Any help would really really be appreciated.... so to those that will try to help me out... many thanks in advance....
***If someone who could reach out to mike the kind sir who developed AR HD 5.0 for Galaxy Note 2...please relay our issue...***
Hey everyone, I’ve got a problem with Cyberon Voice Commander locking up with some of the ROMs while using my BT headset.
When Cyberon Voice Commander is activated I hear the voice asking me what my command is and immediately after this it locks up. Normally you would see a progress bar moving across the screen indicating that Cyberon is listening to the command but I never see this. Unfortunately I do not know if the lockups only happen while using the bt headset because I forgot to test this the last time I had loaded and tried Cyberon.
Most of the Roms that I have noticed the problem with are Sense 3.5 ROMs. I did have one or two Sense 2.1 ROMs loaded and if I remember correctly Cyberon worked correctly with these.
I know some of the ROMs have the stock voice dialer included where some don’t. I use voice activated dialing through my bluetooth headset all the time hence the desire to load Cyberon so that I am using the same software regardless of the ROM.
Is there something else that I need to load or do to get this software to work? Or is there some issue that Cyberon Voice Commander has with Sense 3.x ROMs?
I’m still a relative noob with my DZ and Android having only had the phone for less than 6 months, so I’m not completely sure if it’s something that I’m doing wrong. So any help that you could give me would be appreciated.
Update to problem
I re-installed Cyberon Voice Commander to experiment a little more. When I am not using my bluetooth headset everything works just fine. But with the bluetooth headset the phone locks up.
So does anybody have any idea if there is some setting that needs to be changed so everythings works correctly with the bluetooth headset?
