VC by headset switch... - Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General

Hi all!
SEA Rhodium, 6.5 with VC 1.6 from links here...
Quick press Call starts phone, 2 quick presses starts phone, calls last,
Long Press Call button starts VC and it listens for me.
HTC wired headset (Stereo headset symbol shows in notification area), quick press nothing, 2 quick presses starts phone, calls last (then quick press ends call), long press does nothing.
I'm hoping and expecting that a long press on the headset switch will start VC and then VC will listen to the headset mic - just like the hand set, and like my old Startrek!
Have I missed anything? Why doesn't the headset switch completely act like the call button?

(bump?)
Hi all, still trying for help or confirmation...
My old Startrek would let me push headset button, beep to me, listen for command and on from there...
My TP2 will let me push long handset call button, beep to me, listen, do my bidding...
On wired headset, single push does nothing, long push nothing, double push does last call (just like handset!)... In call push gets me hold on/off, long push hangs up.
I don't understand why, if headset switch can replicate the call button,
why VC doesn't beep in and listen to me on single long push? It seemd so natural on my Startrek...
THX
Anyone else? Am I wrong, wrong headset, operator?

It isn't based on the device you use. The headset needs to support that feature.

Ringtone playing over bluetooth when answering

This problem I am having seemed to start with WM5 AKU 2.3 and is still happening to me in WM6. If someone calls me, and I push the button on my bluetooth headset to answer, my ringtone plays for about a half a second to the person calling me. They usually complain about a loud noise when I answer the phone. I have discovered if I push the answer soft key on my phone instead, it doesn't play the ringtone, but it takes a little longer for my headset to pick up. This happened with my old headset (Plantronics Discovery 640) and my current headset (Jawbone). Has anyone else experienced this problem? If there was some way to adjust the delay for when the headset picks up, I think it would fix this problem because when pressing the key on the phone to answer there is a delay, but when pressing the button on the headset, there isn't.
Thanks...Brian

Switch from TomTom to Phone

Hi All
Im wondering if any of you guys can help me.
I regulary use TomTom on my XDA Orbit and also use the speaker phone to talk on the phone as I drive. I have a problem when I receive an incomming call wilst running TomTom. The notification appears on the bottom of the screen telling me the is an incomming call, but Its a bit difficult getting from TomTom to the phone screen to switch on the speakerphone, without either dropping the call or quickly answering the call, then quit tomtom, then activate the speakerphone. I dont want to use the supplied headset and i dont have a bluetooth headset. Can anyone give any tips? Maybe a taskmanager wich cyles through the active programs using one of the buttons on the side of the phone??? Clutching at straws now maybe??
When a call is incomming, press the green answer button, quickly, and then press and hold it again.
Thanks for your reply. I will try this and let you klnow how I get on.
Cheers
Works a treat. I Have now also mapped the VJPhoneShortut ("Speakerphone ON") to the GPS Button on the handset which gets rid of the 3 second hold (not always easy when driving). Thanks again.

Voice Command and blueant x5i headphones

hello has anyone had any success with blueant x5i headphones.
I got them cheap and i ran the /Windows/vcbthag.dll reg fix but i still are not getting any functionality with the multipurpose button.
Any help is apreciated.
I did a hard reset of the phone just to check that i wasnt missing something.
The home button still turns on voice command.
Solved
ahh figured it out,
the power button is the button to push for vc.
the mf button calls the last person if you hold it down, or plays and pauses if pushed shortly.
kind of strange, whole reason i got it was because i thought the nice big button would be good for snowboarding.....
BlueTooth Voice Command Gurus, Help!
Ok so i got these bluetooth headphones (blueant x5i) for 25 bucks. Im a cheap bastard but who cares.
They are decent, the volume up and down buttons execute rewind and fastfwd, the mfb button plays and pauses or will call the last called number.
Now heres the catch (as per the thread above) the power button is actually the voice command button or.... when media player is playing it is the stop button.
So if I'm listening to music and i want to execute a voice command like, next track or play album, I have to hit the power button(stop media player), wait a second or two, hit the power button again and then I get my voice command prompt.
Does anyone know if there is a a simple way to either switch my voice command button over to the larger mfb (play/pause/redial last number button) or remove stop function and force voice command prompt on the power button???
If anyone can point me over to a thread or any help narrowing down the registry area where this is controlled will be appreciated.
Any help?
just thought id bump it back up to the top of the que here ive dug into the registry a little but its all very confusing for me.

Hearing sound on Bluetooth headset when answering on device?

On my TP2, if a call is coming in and I have the bluetooth headset turned on, the headset will pick up the call only if I answer by pressing the headset answer button. If I answer by sliding the on-screen bar over the green "answer" button, the speaker in the phone itself comes on instead.
Is there a way to change this behavior such that the sound always comes through the headset if it is connected to the device, even if I answer on the phone itself?
I would be interested in this too, as I have a bluetooth car kit, if I accept the call from the car screen it is ok, if I accept it on the phone it routes through the phone.
I'm having a similar issue, but a little more complex it sounds like... When the phone rings and using my bluetooth headset (Jawbone2), I have to:
Press the answer button on the Jawbone2
Ringtone sound now comes through the headset
Remove phone from pocket and Slide2Answer with S2U2
Call is now connected through bluetooth
With my Kaiser, all I had to do was press the bluetooth answer button and the call would automatically pick up. No removing the phone, no pressing buttons or sliding to answer!
If I Slide2Answer on the phone when ringing without "transferring the call to bluetooth" first, the handset picks up the call. Useful in many cases, especially if I can't find the bluetooth after putting it down or in my jacket pocket for the time being. If I use the phone to make a call from the handset with bluetooth connected, it always transfers the sound directly to bluetooth. The problem lies with answering the phone with a bluetooth headset - the 4 steps above need to be completed instead of just #1 like it should be!
if you don't want it to go to the phone you need to answer with the device you want to talk with. thats how bluetooth on phones work, tp and tp2

I get that, If I try to answer the phone on the headset though, just the sound of the ringtone comes through the headset - the phone is still not answered, and is still ringing, just now in my ear! I STILL have to actually answer it via the phone's controls, which is pretty hard to do if you have your hands full........
For the OP Boo boo is correct. Answer the call on the device you want to use.
For Garcia25 the problem is S2U2. I ended up removing it and going back to the built in lock + LockDevice + built-in slide-to-answer.
