You Odin'd in EC05 stock tar and tried to pair for a bluetooth and nothing shows up in the scan? Did you make the headset discoverable?

Yes and it connects but when you answer a call when you hit the answer button on headset it tells you who is calling and that you have to dial 1 to answer i never had to do that before.On EC05 and EG22.

That is the Google Voice thing. You joined your Sprint number with Google Voice. Go to Google Voice settings on a computer and change that screening option.

Bluetooth Pairing EB13

Anyone else have any EB13 issues with bluetooth pairing "dropping"? As in I need to fully re-pair my car and my phone every time I get in it because the devices won't recognize each other even though they have been paired. This never happened on eclair.
At first I thought it might just be one of the ROMs but all EB13 ROMs do this to me. Also, it isn't my device as my wife is having the exact same problem. FYI, currently I am using ACS but this happens with others also.
I think i have issue too and after fiddling around with it it finally connects, but everytime i turn off bluetooth, i have to fiddle around for like 3 minutes to get it back on?
Any suggestions?
Ive cleared opp bluetooth data..
Should i reflash the eb13 modem? Or is this just an issue with the new modem?
Any one else having issues with keeping a a pair connection when turning off the phone or bluetooth?
Would appreciate the suggestions.
I use my phone for radio in the car and as much as it pains me to say it I may go back to eclair :-(

Someone said that before he upgraded to eb13 he backed up older bluetooth system files and pairing data in titanium backup and restored them and it fixed it for him. Also it appears to work on dk28..
So what i was thinking is odin back and connect the headset and make sure it work properly, then titanium backup it and restore the certain files and it may work, i may test this tomrrow will let you know if this fixes if not, maybe the ec20 update will fix it..
I may have old bluetooth files backed up with titanium. Let me know how it goes. Is it the bluetoothOPP or bluetooth services apk?

I pulled all the 3 files from a DK28 ROM and it is still the same problem. If our problems are the same, this doesnt fix it.

U need to pair your headset with d118 or dk28 and save those files via titanium backup and save the Bluetooth pairing file, so regardless u have to make it connect on the precious Timon and save the pairing file and all the Bluetooth ill try to test it today, I hope we get ec20 or a new build that fixes this annoying issue..

Problems with voice dialing on Jelly Bean

I am experiencing problem voice dialing from bluetooth headset on jellybean roms on the vzw gNexus.
On any non jellybean rom i can say... for example... "call mom on mobile" and it will, 95% of the time call mom. On jelly bean if i say the same phrase, it will 100% of the time return "calling tim, on mobile". In fact, it doesn't mater what contact name i say, it it ALWAYS suggests the wrong contact.
I thought, ok, lets try google now. If i open google not, tap the mic(voice input) option, and say, "call mom on mobile" it will fill in the search box with "call mom on mobile" so its understanding me correctly, then below that is says
"did you mean call tim on mobile"
and lists tim then mom in a list of numbers to call.
I spent over 3 hours trying to get this to work right, flashed every JB rom i could find, wiped and rewiped and reflashed. Finally went back to ICS and retested, sure enough it works awesome on ICS.
Can anyone atleast try to replicate this problem, or is anyone already experiencing it?
THanks!
Bump
Bump again.
Almost 50 views, if anyone using a bluetooth and Jellybean can at least try it and let me know if it happens to you or not. Thanks
Works fine for me.

what phone and rom are you using? Looks like GSM, and OTA.
I just checked it again and i got:
"Call mom on mobile"
**Did you mean -Mark**
Mark
Mom
Kathy
thats from google now.
If it activate the voice dialer directly from the bluetooth, it will call bob, mark, tim, or funniest a business name that starts with "borderview". Even after 20 tries it will not dial "mom" lol.
Alternatively, I tried dialing mark, tim, bob, and borderview directly, and after 10 tries each, they will not dial if i try to dial them, only if i try and dial mom. lol very frustrating.
Yes stock gsm JB with root. Does it only happen with your headset? If so, try a different BT headset.

It happens using a $150 bose headset, as well as a $20 plantronics.
If it don't use the bluetooth i still get terrible suggestions, such as..
"call mom on mobile"
Did you mean call tim?
Tim
Mom
Mark
wtf???
That's weird. Only thing I'd try now is flashing a different JB rom, but I can't really imagine that being the problem. Have you let someone else try it? Maybe it is you after all.
In have tried 3 different roms, and have been using the voice dialer since android 2.1 on over 10 devices. Also it works flawlessly on ISC using the same hardware. Is anyone able to successfully Bluetooth voice dial on jelly bean on a vzw gnexus?

I just flashed my Sprint Nexus to JB last night and have exactly the same problem. I hadn't tried any calling on ICS before I flashed, so I can't compare on the same phone.
I just came from an Epic 4G Touch that used Vlingo, and it was always about 95% accurate. I hate to step backwards, but I may have to switch back to that.
Why can't anyone mimic the old MS voice dial where it asked for confirmation before dialing? If I said, "Call mom on mobile", it would ask, "Call mom on mobile?" I said "Yes" and it would dial.
The way it is now goes against all safety concerns for hands-free driving. Now I have to look at the screen as it starts to dial and madly grab at the End Call button when it guesses the wrong name to call.

Im glad someone finally responded and said yes i have this problem, or no i use this feature and it works every time.
THis is a huge concern and i feel its only happening on the ported(CDMA) roms.
Can anyone else confirm this on a toro or toroplus, and confirm that this is not an issue on GSM gnexus's?
Thanks!

This makes me feel very strongly that the issue has been caused by something in the porting process. I will PM on of the devs. and see if he can reproduce it.
i am also having this problem on my CDMA nexus with JB. Everytime it's not even remotely close to properly detecting my call request.
I absolutely love the cyberon voice dialer because it works and it has verification.
Unfortunately, under JB when you press the dial button on the bluetooth headset the google now voice dialer overrides my cyberon voice dialer. The only way to make cyberon work is to completely disable google search. This completely disables all the new voice command support and google now as well.
Basically 3rd party voice dialers are no longer compatible!
No, the built in dialer is still unusable especially without verification.
For me, I've always had absolutely horrible results when using voice dial initiated from the Bluetooth earpiece (two different Jawbone Icons, three different Android phones, Eclair through Jelly Bean, official or custom ROM.)
Using voice search, Google Now, JB voice typing, or Dragon with Swype, it's perfect..

Can the long button press be changed from voice dial to voice search? (I think those are the right terms.) Voice search understands and dials much better. Plus, it sucks to be limited to just dialing from the headset.

Cyberon is awesome. I wouldn't use a voice dialer without confirmation. I don't want people calling me back because my dialer got it wrong. Sometimes this can cause serious problems. If google adds a confirmation option that's when I'll give them a serious try. I've been told even the iphone voice dialer has confirmation.

Are you both dialing through bluetooth? Honestly it hasn't got one right for me yet. Not one where cyberon is dead on.

Phone doesn't ring after going into sleep mode.

I have Android 4.0.4 FF02 from this thread.
For the first couple of days the phone has worked great. Now day I am noticing that when the phone does into 'sleep-mode' it does not ring when someone calls me. If I use my house phone to make a test call it will just ring on my home handset but the E4GT will not ring. But if I press the power button it will 'awake' the phone and start ringing..
Any help is MUCH appreciated.

I loaded that version and than my wifi tether app stop working.
Would it make more sense just to return to Gingerbread??
Which tethering app are you using? Did you try ClockworkMod Tether?

I tried that version he posted above. When I loaded that version I loaded WIFI Tether for root users. I went through and set up the settings as I normally do (when it works). And this time it just didn't work...
So since then I returned to 4.0.4 FF02 so I can use hotspot but the phone still doesn't ring from time to time when people call. I just dunno what to do at this point..

[Q] Rogers S3 stock JB replace voice dialer with google now

Upgraded my rogers s3 to latest stock JB last night. however today when I tried bluetooth headset dialing (Sony MW600) I was surprised to hear S Voice as i thought it was completely replaced by Google now, but it was still there. Fixed that issue by disabling S Voice under Settings-->Applications
Now when I price dial button on headset, it launches Voice Dialer, however I was expecting it to launch Google Now which includes voice dialing and other functions. Not able to figure out how to do that.
So far I tried clearing defaults and data for Google search app (as suggested in some threads) but no other solutions specified worked for me.
Anybody successful in changing this behavior without rooting?

[Q] Launch Google Now voice search with Bluetooth headset button

Hello All,
I have searched, and searched to no avail. I have a Jawbone Era bluetooth headset and I would like to launch Google Now instead of S-voice when I push the headset button. I have tried bluetooth launch and it did not work. I am non-rooted and would like to stay that way if possible. Any suggestions? Thanks.

disable s voice from the app section of settings... it won't give you google now voice, it gives you google voice search (which is the older version)
without root this is the best you can get

I use bt launch as well as headset button apps.
Remember to freeze s voice first.
swyped all these spelling errors from my galaxy note 2
Thanks for your input! It's fixed
Thank you, that solved my problem, did not realize that you had to disable s-voice.
Were you able to get Google Now Voice? I disabled S-voice and get Google Voice Dialer. Read about using an app to change what bluetooth initiates but that it has stopped working since 4.1.
Would love to get this working. Could anybody elaborate a bit more on how they got Google Now Voice?

First off I changed my lock screen to none when I am In my car and using bluetooth speakerphone.Google voice won't recognize voice commands when bluetooth is connected.A work around is to enable touch sounds in sound settings.Long press the menu bar on your phone, touch the G for google now and it works perfectly on bluetooth speakerphone with voice commands.Please note I use a phone mount in my car to make this accessible
Ive been tearing my head apart with a similar problem
see i have a bluetooth motorcycle helmet. it has a button that launches the default voice app on any phone, the app responds to the button that normally is play and pause not to the button that is designated for a voice app ive yet to been able to find an app that lets you change your default voice app or change the reaction to that voice button i would like to launch dragon which in my opinion is the best voice app but thats just preference. any ideas anyone? oh by the way im on a note 2 running jedi xp11 but gonna update to xp14 as soon as it finishes downloading which take forever .

i got it for you man been breaking my head over it for a little while you just gotta go to titanium backup and make the google now app into a system app than when you hit your voice button in your car or whatever it will ask you if you want to use s voice or google now or in my case im having it use dragon!

I just did some searching and came across a thread with a possible solution. Here's the link:

It basically says to convert google search from a system app to a user app. I haven't tried it, but it sounds like it allows some people to choose a different voice dialer as the default.

This was exactly the fix I was looking for. I find the older voice dialer safer when I'm driving the car b/c google now voice may present you with choices in visual form only. Plus the dialer works from my BT headset even when the screen is locked, yes it bypasses the lock screen. It took me a bit to realize I had to go into the Application Manager to disable S Voice.
Stupid things like S Voice make me want to root my S4. I'm trying to avoid the time suck that rooting and rom'ming can be, but Samsung is killing me with their bubbly and not quite ready for prime time look, feel, and apps.
Give this app a try immediately! I helped beta test and it works wonderfully! Simply connect your Bluetooth headset, press the button on the headset, select this app as the default to open on your phone and select always. Now just press your Bluetooth headset button and boom! Google now opens!
