Did you install the tweaked keyboard? When you're in a text entry field you just hit the mic.

I just installed Jonas's keyboard and all works fine but if I click on the mic button nothing seems to happen. If I hold down the mic button it shows the settings symbol and when you release it, it goes to settings.....

There's a widget for that. If you go to add a widget, look for SETTINGS - in there you'll find one for mobile network.

When I turn bluetooth on & make it DISCOVERABLE, there is a timer which makes it DISCOVERABLE for only 120seconds... How can I make it DISCOVERABLE without timer 4 as long as I want to... (bcaz when I want 2 use my bluettooth headset I want this 2 stay DISCOVERABLE) or is there something I m missing...
Thanks in advance...

You DON'T want your phone discoverable permanently. For what you said you want to do, use a headset, you don't need it to be. Once you're paired that's it.

Is it possible to use Bluetooth voice daling?

Is it possible to use Bluetooth voice daling? I can't find how to do this.. Does anyone know how?

Use choice dialer, there are free and paid versions. May require a reboot before use.

Does that app use the voice recognizing software of google? Or does each app has its own?

All I know is it works wonders. It does pronounce the names of my friends like the google one does, though, so it may just be using Google's recognition.

I've installed the app, but the button on my bluetooth headset is still not working.. Using the search button on my phone does work, but touching your phone is illigal while driving in the Netherlands.
Is there a way to use the buton on my headset to start voice dailing?
ps: I'm really disapointed that this feature isnt part of the stock software. It's a big miss on such a high-end phone!

I have to agree, however the app is working for me on a Jabra bt handfree, out of curiosity have you rebooted the phone after installation?
Regards
Flashmore

I did a fast reboot and that didnt help. After you message I did a battery pull and now choice dialer works just like you sad.
Just too bad that this app has a hard time understanding all my Dutch names.. This solution is far from perfect to me, but thank for you help anyway!!
I really don't get why the original voice recognition software is only used to search google Why would anyone want to use google hands-free? You will have to use your fingers immediately after the search anyway.
When designing a phone, I think your main focus should be on making a perfect phone, after this you can add loads of extra's which hardly anyone is ever going to use!

I'm still searching for a way to use the build-in voice recognision to make calls with bluetooth..
Anyone??

Hi,
I'm interested too with this feature.
Idool, did you find a solution ?

No, sadly I did not.. I'm still hoping to find a solution. Are you looking for a dutch version as well?

No, i'm French.
I found "Cyberon Voice Commander", the 3.0 release works on Android plateform and it's multilanguage (i didn't find Dutch). But there is no trial, you must pay 5€
http://www.cyberon.com.tw/download.php?SNO2=4&SNO3=

Probably possible with Windows 7.

Yes, but that won't help us...
If you're trying to say that voice dialling should be a stock feature on a cellphone, than I totally agree. Especially such a hi-end device!!
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

It is with Froyo and Nexus devices, the APK is called "Voice Dialer" : http://www.mediafire.com/?912je0f8fta72b2
But does not work with our DHD, or maybe in puting in the rom before flashing it (with rom cleaner tool for exemple, i did not try yet)

I don't use bluetooth headsets currently however I do use a program called Vlingo which is very good at recognising voice, their description also say it works with bluetooth:
Vlingo InCar offers (Part of the Vlingo app):
* Voice-driven, hands free initiation – Vlingo enters listening mode upon Bluetooth® connectivity
* Voice driven, hands free initiation using a “wake up word”
* Conversational user guidance instead of a touch screen
* Ability to send and respond to messages, make calls and get directions using only voice commands
It can be downloaded free from the market and for mee the voice recognition seems to be far more accurate when compared to Google Voice.

Does it work in French ?

Did you try cyberon voice commander?
Edit: i tryed cyberon voice commander and vlingo and i use only vlingo now. It's great app, absolutely handsfree for voice dialing with bluetooth hf.

Does Vlingo work with the bt headset button? Voice Search doesn't seem to work, since I've tried it.
best regards

[Q] Speed calling with bluetooth

I have bluetooth Jabra Clipper paired for phone (and media) audio. When I start a call using the BT device the phone starts the phone app and dials the last called number automatically. This is not what I want. I bought Cyberon Speed Call and I would like to associate the 'start call' command with this app so I can choose who to call. SO when I start a call using BT the Cyberon app should start and not the phone app. I have been using Cyberon on my windows mobile for a long time and there is works like this. Anyone knows how to associate (if that's the correct term) an app with the start call command via bluetooth?

Don't think it works that way. You need the phone app in order to do anything call related. If it doesn't give you an option to make a default for the app you want to use then I don't think you are going to have much luck.

Thanks, but I think I didn't make myself clear enough: the situation now is that when I press the button on my BT device the phone app starts calling the last dialed number. What I want ( and what should be possible according to the manufacturer of the app) is that when I press the button on my BT device the Cyberon Speed Dial app should start, wait for me to say the name of the person I want to call (in non-English pronunciation) and THEN start the phone app calling the person I just named. It works when I start the Cyberon app manually, I just can't get the BT device to start Cyberon instead of the phone app.

Wifi calling asks for SIP account

I'm on T-mobile and have a stock G3, wifi calling enabled and calling preference set to Wi-Fi Preferred. When I try a wifi call I get "There are no internet calling accounts on this phone" and am asked to make a SIP account. Anybody seen this?

Yes use this to log into works voip system so I can make and receive work calls.
Do you have a voip package

T-mobile says I don't need anything but a standard home network and their phone.

That's not how I have done it, and I'm not sure how that would work

Just found this, "T-Mobile has opensourced their SIP with TLS/SIM Auth stack on android..." here

Mine worked out of the box, connected to WiFi and WiFi calling came on. No extra stuff is necessary.
When you say stock you mean a stock tmobile g3 right?

Not sure if you're trying to specifically execute internet calling. For T-Mobile Wi-Fi calling just have it enabled (set preferred), and be on wifi with internet access. You should see a notification appear saying you're using Wi-Fi Calling. Then just make normal calls and they go over wifi.

My wife also got a G3 at the same time, and hers works so it's not my location, router, DSL, etc. Tried a factory reset to no avail. It's in T-Mobile's hands now. If it's not a programming thing on their end I'll go for a new phone.

Tried the wife's sim and also compared every setting in her phone to mine but saw nothing different. Got a new phone, still no dice.
T-Mobile says that "Internet call" in the pop-up refers to voip and "Cell phone call" is cell and also wifi calling if it's on. I've never used voip so I don't see how it could be some remnant of that. Tech support gave it several shots but finally threw in the towel.
I get this on every number i dial except voicemail:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

Did you migrate from a Nexus 5 or a rooted android device? I have the same issue. My Nexus 5 had the ability for a VoIP (SIP) account which I had configured on my Nexus device. I believe the T-Mobile LG G3 skin does not allow for this or it is hidden. So when Google restored my setting on my new LG G3 phone, it included the settings for VoIP /SIP account however not supported by t-mobile. This means I need to figure out how to access this account or I need to factory default out my G3. The issue is once I do this, I will not be able to use Google services to restore my config or it will configure the VoIP account again and I will be back at square one.

My last phone was a G2. Yes, the voip settings are missing (normally under Call, Internet Settings) which I assume is T-Mobile's doing. I added a dummy SIP account to see what would happen and the dialer attempted to use it. I could not delete this account in Settings, but clearing data for the Phone app erased it. I guess there is another setting that I can't get to that will fix this. If by "factory default" you mean factory reset, that did not help me. If you mean new google account, that may work but is more trouble than it is worth to me.

Thanks for the reply. It seems we are in the same boat my friend. I wonder if Google or Google + has an interface to show what apps and config get restored? If I find anything out I will update this post.

Installed an OTA update today that was supposedly for Wi-Fi Calling enhancements but it did nothing for me. Help you?
EDIT: Funny, the update was changed to "T-Mobile Free Inflight Texting support".

Also Google has finally brought WiFi calling with Google Voice into Hangouts, like they had foe over a year already on iOS. This pretty much eliminates any need for voice minutes on any US or Canadian carrier and works fine over WiFi or data.
I called my son and was able to retrieve my Voice phone number which I had forgotten.

RK31888 unit on Malaysk ROM - no bluetooth phonebook

Still setting this all up before installing in the car. In the Bluetooth app, my phonebook remains empty. My phone connects fine and I can send and receive calls, but no phonebook. Any ideas?

Bump. Anyone? Buhler?
I`ve tried with 3 different phones but still nothing.

Go in to Xposed/modules and remove the thick from the bluetooth something (I don't remember exact wording)
and your phone will sync. It's a known problem. Did you do a search for this problem?
After that you can sync as described above.

Xposed installer/modules/and remove the thick from XposedMtcBT and reset.

Thanks, I`ll give it a try this evening.

I cant find the GUI for the ExposedMctBT bluetooth app. I can see that it is installed under runningapps, but I dont see any GUI. This also prevents me to call out. Incomming calls works fine. Anybody know where to start the GUI? Thanks

Unchecking the Xposed-mtc-bt in the Xposed modules fixed the problem. Now I can sync the phonebook.
Unfotunately the included mic is crap. It's too short to install in the overhead console, so I have it next to the steering wheel. It seems to pick up everything but voices.

There is no GUI for Xposed-mtc-bt. Open Xposed Installer, click on Modules then uncheck the Xposed-mtc-bt. Then reboot.

Error.
