Howdy guys and gals. I got my Nexus 7 for one week now, and I love it. Got a problem, though, and dunno where to look for a solution... Hope someone here knows something about it.
I'm using Swype+Dragon for text input through dictation. I can't use Google's own keyboard since I happen to be Greek, and Google doesn't support dictation in our language (yet). So, Swype+Dragon it is.
Problem is, it doesn't seem to like my Jabra bluetooth hands-free gizmo. Googles own Voice Commands, though, seem to work with it. So...
Does anyone know if there's a "fix" or hack or tweak or whatever, so as to make Swype "listen" to me, while not having to hold my Nexus 7 two centimeters from my face (to use its own mic)?
Thanks
Anyone? Gee, am I the only one whose bluetooth headset doesn't work this way?
Jabra supreme and Nexus 5

No, mine isn't working either. I've updated firmware etc. but no luck on the Nexus 5.

As we all read in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?p=130137#130137
voice dial and audio transfer from PDA2 to bluetooth headsets (Jabra bt800 and SE hbh-662 in particular) is possible. BUT...
in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=22817
there is a workaround that enables an option to transfer regular sounds to the BT Headset....
and after fiddling around in the reistry a litte....i managed to get audio through my hbh-660 headset...BUT the connection is terminated in a couple of seconds...
as a result, i asked ccrraaazy (author of the first thread) for his registry settings, and found out that his device has BT scripts for audio transfer and voice dialling... untill i get my hands on those scripts and other dlls from the pda2, and start testing...i'm pretty sure that audio transfer and bt voice dialling will be possile by tonight....
any comments and expertese welcome.....lets make this thing work once and for all on every HTC device....
To be honest, i gave up looking to solve this problem....But looks like u may have the answer. Please do post or PM me if you have any success at all. Changing they Reg Keys with my Motorola HS-850 didnt work but i did get the option to send other auido to my headset...
Keep me posted
:lol:
dont lose hope buddy..i'm gonna make this work....got fed up waiting for ppl to come up with solutions.... if we dont participate in finding solutions,,,who will?? :lol:
after lots of changes and tweaking....nothing happened with my hbh-660....but i just tried a friends hbh-662...and it works !!! believe it or not.... will try to think of something.
Keep us posted afs84..
I really hope you get it working.. I tried to fiddle around with the registry too as described in the second thread, but I didn't get any sound at all.
I even tried a patched BT3900 from some dutch site, but no go.

Yep, I would like to have Agile or MSN send the sounds to my Jabra.
And, if possible, the calendar also.
Worked nice on my Nokia 9500 ALL the sounds, inclusive keyboard taps are sent to the Jabra.

Need a help to make T7373RUS works with bluetooth mono handsfree.
Actually it works with, but does not the whole functionality, one thing is missing - it's a voice dialing via pressing call button on BT handsfree. OK, I know T7373 (non USA) does not have any voice dialing, but this is a WM, well I set up VITO VoiceDialer and it works perfect. But there is a problem - my bluetooth handsfree don't launch it. I've tryed to use wired handsfree it works perfect. What is a point, why such perfect phone cannot does that any nokia or SE phone does like a piece of cake.
Please help, this is really sad thing need to be fixed, can some one to figure out how to solve this?
May be anyone know USA version of Tp2 uses the same bluetooth stack?
May be some parts of USA version software is possible to integrate into my TP2?
Does anybody use Bluetooth handsfree with HTC TouchPro2????
Hello,
I've had my Tilt2 for 2 months now and am ready to get a headset. After many searches I can't find a definitive list of headsets that are working/ not working correctly.
I'm using a stock ROM and have the Tilt2 2 tweaked to 43% memory usage on boot-up. The phone is fast and everything works correctly. Also using SPB mobile Shell.
Has anyone tied in the Bluetooth 2.1 vs 2.0 headsets with correct operation? I want the voice command, audio passthrough, and buttons to work correctly.
Maybe we can start a list of Phone - ROM version - Headset - Whats working/not working.
I'm mainly concerned with the stock ROM but any info may assist others.
Thanks

Well, I have the Jawbone Prime & Motorola HX-1 and both work fine.
Motorola H710 works fine as well.
Thanks for the info. Does the voice command work for making calls and you can also hear music files and audio from websites?
Thanks Jim O
Surely more folks can contribute to a good list. Lets get some more response going. This could be of great benefit to one and all.
Thanks!!!!!
Samsung WEP 850 with voice command works just fine.
The Sony DRBT100CX stereo bluetooth earbuds also work very well with the Tilt 2. All A2DP/AVRC audio and handsfree calling functions are supported. Nice bargain at $50 as well.
Yes, but...
... has anyone found a BT headset that announces the incoming caller ID over it instead of the phone's speaker?
I've tried a couple of older as well as one new BT headset. All pair and work flawlessly with my Tilt 2, but none of them will announce the incoming caller ID over the headset as it did with my original Tilt.
Yeh, I'm pretty sure this was a screwup in the Widcomm BT stack but just want to make sure. FYI, HTC tech support states that none of their phones do this! When I asked 'em why the old Tilts did, I didn't get any more response.
Well, I picked up a new Motorola H17 12/30/09. Everything works as advertised, except the incoming caller announcement (on phone announcement only). This headset was released only a couple months ago with the latest Bluetooth 2.1 and all the other amenities so this problem does seem to be a problem with the stack.
On a side note, this headset works great. Get ALL phone sounds transferred and also volume control on both the phone and headset. Works great with streaming video/audio. And it is loud, usually have it set to mid volume. Also, I bought it from an AT&T store ($80) and he stated that if anything goes wrong with it for 1 year just bring it in and he will replacement.

I have the Jabra HALO and works wonderfully well with my TP2, running Win6.5

The manager @ my local AT&T store has a Tilt 2 using a Blue Ant Q1 bluetooth & he says that his BT does all these things. I just ordered one so I will let you know when I get it. FYI he was using a Jawbone prior to the Q1.

I got my Blue Ant Q1 and it does announce the incoming calls over the blue tooth & your text messages, e-mail, reminders, your music- I like it. If you turn "announce incoming call off" in voice command it will not announce them over the speaker on the phone. I bought mine off e-bay for $48.99.
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?
I have a Nexus and am running the most recent Paradigm (though I am reading the ROM doesn't make a difference). When I am in my truck, which has bluetooth for the phone, my google voice typing (in SMS and anything else) does not work. As soon as I turn off bluetooth it works fine.
This thread explains the same thing:
code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35737
Is there a ROM that has this fixed?
