BT Headset Call Answer button opens S-Voice - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

i just bought a BT Headset "Motorola HK250" and its paired fine.
on my Stock S3 i have the home button set "NOT" to open S-Voice.
in S-Voice settings i pretty much have everything un-checked.
when i recieve a phone call when the headset is paired with the phone and i hit the call answer button on the bt headset it opens S-Voice.
I HATE THIS
what i want to see when i hit the call answer button is my phone dialpad so i can see the phone number or name of who i just answered the call from.
i use groove ip pro (so it uses the native dial pad) along with google voice over wifi for all of my phone calls (this shouldnt make a difference)
what would be great is if i hit a button on the bt headset it would tell me who is calling and then a button again to either ignore or answer.
how can i do this?
thanks
btw i searched and searched but im not having any luck on this

It doesn't call the last person you talked to if you hold the button to answer a call? Also just use s voice to dial maybe?

Settings>Accessibility>text-to-speech output check driving mode, it'll tell you who's calling and read your texts
It's not perfect, but it's a fix

Bluetooth + Voice Talk + Missed Call = Problem

Hey guys, so I am using my headset to activate Samsung Voice Talk by holding my BT button for 2 sec which works great! The problem is that when I have a missed call, Samsung Voice Talk will keep notifying me even though I've already cleared notification and even viewed the call log! WTF! I have to actually delete missed call so clear the notification! Any advice???
Stop using voice talk

What do I use then? I can't set default to Google Voice Search
I want to say that the bluetooth quality is terrible. I'm using the brand new jabra sports too.

Do you think it is specific to your device (jabra sport) or a problem with the phone. Is it bad enough to change your opinion/review of the epic touch ?

I don't have any problems with hearing people / them hearing me. I use BT530 by Jabra. I'd try Plantronics Savor M1100 before complaining about bluetooth.

I'm going to be doing a lot of testing with these Jabra Sports. I'm actually reviewing them because they were just announced. But I was listening to Pandora on my E4T with WiFi on, and the quality was terrible. I'm going to test them with other devices just to ensure if it is the E4T or the Sports.
I am having the same annoying issue with Samsung Galaxy SII ATT, so it looks like a software glitch...makes using voice dialing etc... ridiculous......I have to delete the missed call from the log to get it to stop announcing it.
lol, after a while you just get used to it. Waiting for fix... patiently...NOT!!!
Same problem.. help?

SGH-i927R Rogers with Bluetooth Voice Dial not working

Hi,
I have the Rogers version Galaxy S Glide (Android 235), non-rooted as not allowed in order to use it for work email.
Using Motorola S10-HD stereo bluetooth headset.
When paired and connected, pressing the BT Call button does nothing.
Holding the BT Call button performs a redial of the last number.
I've read for other devices with Android 2.2 or higher that the Google Voice Dialer should start when holding the Call button but it doesnt. It will only start if I hold the search button on the phone itself.
Any confirmation from others or suggestions to make it work?
Thanks.

I am using a Nokia BT headset but working fine, can you check on Settings > Wireless and network > bluetooth settings > [Moto S10-HD] > tap and hold, and see if it's connected with "Phone" and "Media"

Yes, both "Phone" and "Media" are listed in the BT settings and both are ticked.
Have tried repairing with no change.

Do you have access to another Bluetooth headset you could try with the phone? Maybe there's something wrong with your current headset.

I just tried a Nokia BH-104 but it also doesn't start Voice Search/Dial.
It also acts slightly differently to the S10-HD.
Call button press - nothing
Call button long press - nothing
Call button double press - last number redial

Oh now this is becoming a real challenge. I also have Nokia BH-104 and I will, in all my best, try and replicate your issue and see.
EDIT: Positive! The call button on both my Nokia Headsets does not trigger Voice Search.....I can only redial my recent called contact via double press.

I gather we are stuck?
Is there an app that allows remapping the BT call key to start another app, even though this function should work standard to start Voice Search?

I believe voice dial/search does that, don't know what google did....
On google phones (Nexus One/S), I believe, the voice dial app pops out once call key on BT headset is pressed.....but I wanna search further....

I have a Motorola T505 in the car and it works well just that it does not work if the phone is at the lock screen. Needs to be unlocked for the call button to work. I assume you already made sure the phone was not at the lock screen. Just wondering is their anyway to make it work with the lock screen still active?

Did a bit more testing.
I installed Vlingo, then something changed.
Instead of nothing happening when pressing the BT call button (Motorola S10-HD), now I get a choice:
Vlingo
Vlingo In-Car
but still no Voice Search option
I then found this App in the Play Google Store called Bluetooth Launch.
It allows you to assign any function to launch when the BT headset call button is pressed.
Now I get:
Bluetooth Launch
Vlingo
Vlingo In-Car
I set Bluetooth Launch to start Voice Search and it works!.
Vlingo is not a bad option either since it can be set to start listening on launching.
However, I realized all this only happens when the phone is in wake mode.
If its asleep, nothing happens, so you still have to touch and wake up the phone then press the BT button.
So still not totally hands free.
Asleep or locked the phone does not respond which is quite annoying when driving. My old phone (Windows Mobile 6.1) alloud voice dialing even though it was locked. I loved being paired with my Bluetooth as I still could do everything via Bluetooth. Sucks that Android which is so powerful does not work well with BT.

Did some more searching and it appears that the move from Froyo to Gingerbread changed the way BT call wake up works.
When the phone is secured with a pin or pattern to unlock, the BT call button wont wake it up..
I did have a pattern lock enabled, which I've since turned off.
Now pressing the BT call button while the phone is in standby wakes it up and runs Vlingo straight into listening mode waiting for a command.
So seems to work OK, just that I cant have a secured lock enabled.

Ya I have seen that it works as you mentioned but I like having the lock pattern and was hoping there was a way to get Bluetooth call button to work even though the phone is locked. Kind of sucks if there is no way around this. The whole point to the Bluetooth is that the phone can stay in my pocket locked so as not to press any buttons by accident and I can make calls from my Bluetooth device.

Built-in Bluetooth SMS to speech?

Does ICS have built-in SMS to speech functionality when you have a bluetooth device attached?
I've never paired my motorcycle helmet Bluetooth to my phone because I think talking would be a bad distraction. I wouldn't mind hearing an incoming text read while I'm riding, though.
TIA
I don't think so. But I know there are a few apps that do this. Check the play store
Sent from my SPH-L710...if some one helps you press the thanks button
handcent does this but you will have to push the button to make it speak it to you so it's not exactly hands free.
The app 'ReaditToMe' does exactly what you're describing. Whenever you get a text, it reads it immediately for you...
Just turn on car mode via s voice.

Samsung Galaxy S3 Auto-Answer Bug

My At&t Samsung Galaxy S3 automatically picks up incoming calls and enables the speaker while it's sitting on my desk. I will have the phone on silent, and all of a sudden at 7:00 in morning, I hear a telemarketer saying "HELLO?, HELLO?"...I know this sounds strange, because I have only read about a handful of people with this issue, but it is a valid issue that needs to be resolved... Hopefully with your help.
I am not new to smartphones or Android, so I tried whatever you can imagine. I know that Android has a few auto-answer features available, so I made sure all of the settings that have to with automatically answering calls are disabled.
Anyone else experiencing similar issues, or willing to help with this issue, please post. Thanks guys!
(fyi..I have Hard Reset the device twice)
Settings - language and input - voice cmd for apps off.

Not only saying "answer" but most background noise will pick up an incoming call. It's pretty sensitive and there's lots of background noise that could actually "answer" the phone and cause it to pick up/connect. Nice feature, but it's too sensitive for my liking. Had to disable it even though I frequently used it for the camera app. (saying cheese, or shoot will take pictures)
Samsung s3
Yeah, that was my problem. I didn't say answer or anything like it, and it would just pick up the call. The shoot feature can still be enabled without enabling the answer option, I use it quite often. Thanks

Had the same problem! Hopefully, this works. It was periodic so I was concerned about going into store and not being able to replicate. Given this proposed solution, I'm amazed that other forums indicated ATT customer service is asking people to send back their phones for inspection?!!

What my settings are:
From the Phone Settings menu: Call Settings - Accessory Settings for Call:
Automatic Answering IS selected (“Only operates with a connected headset)
Problem is the phone is answering when NO headset (wired or bluetooth) is connected (bluetooth is off).
When I turn off the settings the phone does not answer automatically - However, when I'm driving I like using a wired headset and the autoanswer feature works great then. Just wne I unplug the headset the phone continues with auto answer.
Something that may be related - I have a PayPal credit card reader. It does not work with the phone. I called PayPal tech support to sleuth out the problem and they thought the read was faulty, sent me another, and I have the same result: phone does not recognize the device. My wifes phone is the same Samsung SIII and that headset jack does not work correctly with the reader.
However, the Square D reader does work.
I would fix permissions
I just ran into a guy who was having this same exact issue with his S3, and I went into these settings and toggled it ON, and that got it to stop. He had it off the whole time, but it was still doing it. I turned cmd on, and it stopped it. Very strange.

[Q] Bluetooth issues on CM9RC3

Hey all, Lloir,
Issue : Bluetooth isnt working as I expect it.. ...
Phone Make/Model : HTC One V, GSM, UK Version
Rom : CM9RC3
Kernel :titanium Kiss , tk_usb_cm9_201209091500.img
Have paired a plantronics PLT510 bluetooth headset with the phone, perfectly fine and phone audio is "ticked" in Pairing option
Dialing out
Stock ROM
- if i make a call with the phone using the stock Rom, then as soon as I press dial, a bluetooth connection is created and I hear the ringing tone in my Bluetooth headset..when I disconnect it also disconnects
CM9
- Whilst dialing, if i select (bluetooth from second icon), it still doesn't connect
- The only way I can make it work, is to hold the call button on the headset pressed AFTER Ive hit send/dial on the phone, then voice is transferred to Bluetooth
Receiving a call
- Stock rom, as soon as a call comes in , it connects by default to the headset
- CM9
- Voice stays with handset
- Whilst phone is ringing
- If I press and hold the call button on the headset it will hang up the call (Correct behaviour I think)
- If I press once the call button on the headset, it will answer the call, but voice is still on the handset
- If I press the second icon to select bluetooth on the phone , still nothing happens
- If I answer phone (either by BT call button) or handset, then HOLD the BT Call button on the headset, then voice streaming works......
Currently I have to answer the call using the handset, then press & hold the BT Call button for the call to be transfered to the headset.. delay of approx 5 seconds...
Once the connection is made, the quality is good, clear and consistent...
hope this is clear
Any comments? Im wondering if I flashed the kernel correctly...
y dont u just flash the kernel again, and flash the ROM too, then see if the problem persists, its hardly a 30 sec process
