[Q] Speed calling with bluetooth - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have bluetooth Jabra Clipper paired for phone (and media) audio. When I start a call using the BT device the phone starts the phone app and dials the last called number automatically. This is not what I want. I bought Cyberon Speed Call and I would like to associate the 'start call' command with this app so I can choose who to call. SO when I start a call using BT the Cyberon app should start and not the phone app. I have been using Cyberon on my windows mobile for a long time and there is works like this. Anyone knows how to associate (if that's the correct term) an app with the start call command via bluetooth?

Don't think it works that way. You need the phone app in order to do anything call related. If it doesn't give you an option to make a default for the app you want to use then I don't think you are going to have much luck.

Thanks, but I think I didn't make myself clear enough: the situation now is that when I press the button on my BT device the phone app starts calling the last dialed number. What I want ( and what should be possible according to the manufacturer of the app) is that when I press the button on my BT device the Cyberon Speed Dial app should start, wait for me to say the name of the person I want to call (in non-English pronunciation) and THEN start the phone app calling the person I just named. It works when I start the Cyberon app manually, I just can't get the BT device to start Cyberon instead of the phone app.

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..

There's a widget for that. If you go to add a widget, look for SETTINGS - in there you'll find one for mobile network.

You DON'T want your phone discoverable permanently. For what you said you want to do, use a headset, you don't need it to be. Once you're paired that's it.

Is'nt it supposed to first be a phone ?

Hi guys,
I can't make calls by Voice Dialing with this phone.
I tried the voice dialer available in froyo, but even though the settings are offering "french", it works only with english sentences, and it requires confirmation on the screen.
Is it me or something is going wrong with that android stuff ?
thx.
You mean you can't dial someone and call them? Or that voice dialing doesn't work?

i think he means he cant call someone hands free, because voice dialer wont understand his french, and when he gets it to work in english it requires confirmation on the screen
exactly what I meant !
To answer your question - it is a phone. You can dial and make a call on it.
The issue you have is voice dialing, which isn't a feature every phone has and so isn't something the category of 'phone' comes under. The issue you've got is down to Google, even English UK isn't recognised properly...they'll sort it eventually
Here in Canada like in many other countries, it is prohibited to drive car and use a cell phone without an hands-free device, all the phones I used in the last 6-7 years were having full hands-free support .....
But not all phones have voice dialing. You'd still need to 'dial' to get a call, even though you have a hands-free kit of bluetooth headset.
It's illegal in the UK to use a phone whilst driving but I still do (if I absolutely have to, which is rare)
My previous phone, an LG8700 was doing that very well, completly hands-free with my bluettoth headset, and it was not a "smart-phone" ;-)

And you drive through red lights if "absolutely have to" ?
hi hi hi
bottom line, it does not make sense to me that a supposed "smart phone" not being able to do something "dumb phones" have been able to do for a decade !!!
Things could be simpler if there was a green "Call" button on Desire...
MrUsta:
If you want these buttons aim for WM or LG.
demercie:
Dumb phones don't have 1ghz processors so they recognize it much worser. And most of them can't connect to 3g, and none of them enhances voice detection through 3g.
And because you really need this function try finding older versions of the app and appeal on Google to fix this issue. No worries if it's not fixed in a month there's gotta be some bloody big problem.
Dany0,
To make a voice call, you need to press a button to activate the voice call. A dedicated "call" button could help here. For example, I have a trouble to initiate a voice call in a car using Parrot handsfree car kit (no proble to accept incoming calls though).

Is it possible to use Bluetooth voice daling?

Is it possible to use Bluetooth voice daling? I can't find how to do this.. Does anyone know how?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Use choice dialer, there are free and paid versions. May require a reboot before use.
Does that app use the voice recognizing software of google? Or does each app has its own?

All I know is it works wonders. It does pronounce the names of my friends like the google one does, though, so it may just be using Google's recognition.
I've installed the app, but the button on my bluetooth headset is still not working.. Using the search button on my phone does work, but touching your phone is illigal while driving in the Netherlands.
Is there a way to use the buton on my headset to start voice dailing?
ps: I'm really disapointed that this feature isnt part of the stock software. It's a big miss on such a high-end phone!

I have to agree, however the app is working for me on a Jabra bt handfree, out of curiosity have you rebooted the phone after installation?
Regards
Flashmore
I did a fast reboot and that didnt help. After you message I did a battery pull and now choice dialer works just like you sad.
Just too bad that this app has a hard time understanding all my Dutch names.. This solution is far from perfect to me, but thank for you help anyway!!
I really don't get why the original voice recognition software is only used to search google Why would anyone want to use google hands-free? You will have to use your fingers immediately after the search anyway.
When designing a phone, I think your main focus should be on making a perfect phone, after this you can add loads of extra's which hardly anyone is ever going to use!
I'm still searching for a way to use the build-in voice recognision to make calls with bluetooth..
Anyone??
Hi,
I'm interested too with this feature.
Idool, did you find a solution ?
No, sadly I did not.. I'm still hoping to find a solution. Are you looking for a dutch version as well?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
No, i'm French.
I found "Cyberon Voice Commander", the 3.0 release works on Android plateform and it's multilanguage (i didn't find Dutch). But there is no trial, you must pay 5€
http://www.cyberon.com.tw/download.php?SNO2=4&SNO3=
Probably possible with Windows 7.

Yes, but that won't help us...
If you're trying to say that voice dialling should be a stock feature on a cellphone, than I totally agree. Especially such a hi-end device!!

It is with Froyo and Nexus devices, the APK is called "Voice Dialer" : http://www.mediafire.com/?912je0f8fta72b2
But does not work with our DHD, or maybe in puting in the rom before flashing it (with rom cleaner tool for exemple, i did not try yet)
I don't use bluetooth headsets currently however I do use a program called Vlingo which is very good at recognising voice, their description also say it works with bluetooth:
Vlingo InCar offers (Part of the Vlingo app):
* Voice-driven, hands free initiation – Vlingo enters listening mode upon Bluetooth® connectivity
* Voice driven, hands free initiation using a “wake up word”
* Conversational user guidance instead of a touch screen
* Ability to send and respond to messages, make calls and get directions using only voice commands
It can be downloaded free from the market and for mee the voice recognition seems to be far more accurate when compared to Google Voice.
Does it work in French ?
Did you try cyberon voice commander?
Edit: i tryed cyberon voice commander and vlingo and i use only vlingo now. It's great app, absolutely handsfree for voice dialing with bluetooth hf.

Does Vlingo work with the bt headset button? Voice Search doesn't seem to work, since I've tried it.

[Q] Use bluetooth device as microphone when S3 is connected to it

I just recently bought a bluetooth device for my S3 to use while driving. My original intent was not to just use it for phone calls, but also use it for voice commands. I frequently want to make use of in-app voice searches while driving (for example, use the voice search in player pro to find a song), but since I dock my phone close to my radio, the s3 microphone has a hard time picking up my voice commands. I thought the bluetooth device would act as my microphone when an app requests a voice command, but apparently that's not the case. Is there a way to do this? Thanks!
This has been the case since frito with voice search /actions. I'd like to find a patch or fix for this as well..

I also asked on another forum and someone recommended the app "SoundAbout" It doesn't have the voice search command functionality yet, but I've been communicating with the developer and he sent me a version that worked with voice commands; unfortunately, it also broke the ability to use bluetooth with phone calls. So it's possible, but there are a few kinks to work out. I'd check that app out because he may be releasing a new version soon.
