[Q] Cyberon Voice Commander lockup - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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?

Samsung i780 - Cyberon VSD cannot activate voice dial with BT headset button

I have installed Cyberon Voice Speed Dial on my i780, which basically works OK, but I can't activate voice dial panel when pressing voice dial button on my BT headset. It always activates phone pad instead. I've googled around and found some reghack suggestions, but non of these work. I've also upgraded CVSD to ver. 1.2 build 70917, using cab downloaded from cyberon.com.tw - again, no luck.
Anyone has been successful tackling this problem? Any help appreciated.

How come?
It's documented that you won't get the output from MS Voice Commander to your BT headset,
but I have no problems in activating the voice command through the headset -
Dialing or any other command.
No special tweaks needed.

I didn't have that issue either with HTC Kaiser. It's only happening on Samsung i780, and I'm desperately looking for solution. No luck so far...

I don't know about CVSD, but have you tried Micrsoft Voice commander?
I don't use it now, but on my Samsung i780 I don't remember experiencing the problems "ofird" describes.
Except for not getting the speaker output to my headset, which is a documented "feature" of M$VC with Samsung smartphones...

Unfortunately MSVC doesn't suit me, as it doesn't recognise non-english names very well, and these are most of my contacts. This is why I prefer Cyberon VSD where I can train my own voice tags to most contacted numbers.

How come the bluetooth does not work? is it due to a setting of the phone, or just not possible? because I installed the voice dailer and it works, however when I try to start the voice dailing with my BT headset it does notting. I have to manually call someone. On the diamond, which I had before this one, this worked flawlessly.
So does anyone know anything about this, or should I use a different tool to use voice dialing with my BT headset?

[Q] Desire HD & Voice Dial over BT Headset

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
André
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
André
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?

Voice dialer

Just installed Cyberon Voice Dialer v1.2.3 build 110421 from the Market. Works very well with voice tags via a BT headset.

nice one, i bought the other Cyberon app Cyberon Voice Commander, hope it works as well as the dialer. the thing is that im now stuck with a huawei u8300 and it doesn't work as i want it to.
I don't understand why when our phones already have 2 good voice diallers 1 from google and one from samsung (both powered by vlingo)

Maybe I didn't spend long enough with those apps. What I want is to hit the button on my BT headset, say the contacts name and have the phone dial it immediately without going through any further steps. All this via the BT headset. I could never get this to work on the HD2 (the mic on the phone picked up the sound, not the BT headset) but Cyberon Voice Speed Dial on the SGS2 works perfectly.
Can you do that with either of the 2 included apps?
afaik yes, but I will dust off my old BT headset and check
I can also confirm Cyberon Voice Speed Dial works via bluetooth. Vlingo also worked but you couldn't hear confirmation through the bluetooth headset so was a bit hit and miss / hit and hope its calling the right person. CSVD worked great on Windows mobile and does a similar job on Android.
Does this phone support offline voice dialing as symbian phone does?
THANKS for the incredible recommendation on Cyberon Speed Dial. EXACTLY what I was looking for!
I have a lot of foreign sounding contacts and the voice tagging is just like when I had my Palm Treo 600. Also works well starting up apps like Pandora, SMS, and Maps
HIGHLY recommend this app.
Another important difference is the need of internet connection for the 2 stock dialers. Cyberon's products instead work also without connection
This voice dialer is really great, because you can record your own voice tag for each contact, instead to try talking like R2-D2 with the stock application. Unfortunately, I have one big issue - when I first installed this app, all works like a charm. When I double press the home button or BT headset button, Cyberon speed dial starts. Then I flash the phone with the latest firmware (KE7) and now when I press these buttons, starting the terrible stock application. I spoke with the tech support, but all of their suggestions doesn't work. If somebody have an idea how to make Cyberon as default application or to remove stock app without rooting the phone, I will be very, very grateful. Already tried in Application/Manage application to clear default values for stock voice commander, but clear default button is innactive (gray).
Same problem for me with KE7 firmware - can't launch Voice Speed Dial from the BT headset. Have tried uninstalling it, unpairing the BT headset, turning off phone then removing battery. Then reinstalled app and re-paired headset. Still doesn't work.
Have reported this to Cyberon and they responded "...recent ROMs don't follow standard process of Android's definition to handle the Bluetooth activation event. We're not able to change it at this moment, but have reported this issue to Samsung, and hope they will fix it soon."
Meanwhile the only solution I've found is to root phone and then freeze Voice command using AntTek App Manager. Then unpair BT headset > soft reset > re-pair headset. I now have Voice Speed Dial launching from the headset again.

Just replace vlingo with stock android voice dialer app from sgs or from cm7 with root explorer in system/apps.
Works without internet, you can hear confirmations in bt headset, no need to re-pair the headset.
Or use cyberon.
Attached the version from nexus s.

Is there a way to replace the 'double tap' from launching Vilingo to Launch the Cyberion Voice Dialer app instead? If so, i'll be so glad to know how!

Coredroid V7.0 Bluetooth Question

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.
