For those users of Microsoft Voice command on the Excalibur / Dash, I have found that "App 3" can be selected as the command button (selected thorugh voice command setup) and this will configure the home button as the voice command activation button (a long key press is needed). This substitutes the built-in voice dialing capacity with VC 1.6.
"App 6" maps to the end call button which can also be used, but you can no longer use this button as a key lock.

Hmmm... It doesn't work for me
Oh, wait!
It works, only if BT headset is disabled, not connected!
reboot needed
perhaps you need to first reboot. After I rebooted, it worked but I did not try it with my bluetooth was connected.
Now it works all the time. Weird
odd call waiting behavior
At times, when I receive a call waiting, the phone has disconnected my first caller to take the new call. The behavior is erratic and i have wondered if VC was responsible. Have you seen this behavior?
great tip -- it didn't work at first for me either, but after i reset and tried a few more times it worked. thanks.

i usually don't get call waiting, but i don't recall having this happening. i just may not have encountered it as of yet.
Voice Command 1.6 button on Dash
I remapped the pink 't' button on the bottom right-hand side of the keyboard to start Voice Command. The pink button previously opened t-zones, which I have no need for. It works perfectly and is easy to find without looking since it's the second to last button in the bottom row.

Search and you will find.
Hint: Check the T-Mobile forums over at HoFo
Are you serious DanITman... you tell him what to do and where to find it but you're that lazy to post a link?

Has anyone gotte the Voice dialer in the Enchantment pack to work correctly under Majik? I've assigned the button as normal and although I can run the application directly from Programs, calling it via the button results in an error opening the shortcut or locating the target filename.
Yes I've gotten it to work correctly. I've map button 5 (press and hold) to Voice Speed Dial.
Hmmm. Did you use the one in Enchantments.zip or the one from the old Shadow archive?
Yes I had the same problem ,I assigned the button (PTT) the quick one and it worked about twice and then the error. I then reassigned it to the push and hold
button and it has worked for me fine ever since about 4 days I will say I also tried that same button combination with Microsoft Voice Command got the same results so I don't think it has anything with the programs.

I also found this bug if you asign PTT button to something it will work fine untill you change another button (or even if you just open the "buttons" program), then you'll have to change PTT button to something else, and change it back to what you want, after that it will work fine untill you change something else again.
I'm not able to set the action for long press of the genius button to voice search.
I'm using CM7 nightly 25. Voice search is installed and works when run through the launcher, but when I long press the genius button I get 3 options for which app to handle the action: Dialer One, Hancent Quick Compose and Messaging - Voice search is not listed.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks!
I'd say go with this,

you don't have to use the Genius Button if you don't want to. Then just use Button Shortcut to set the Genius Button long press to Voice Search.
Or... Just get Button Shortcut.
It's funny cause when I long press I get the option for Voice Search... It just doesn't work, however.
I'll check out button shortcut. Thanks!
Coming from the EVO I have a couple questions.
- Is there a way to get the phone when done with a call to go to the home screen? My EVO was like this and I have searched through settings and can't find anything.
- Also I drive a lot so when I press my bluetooth button on all my past phones the phone would wake up and let me make a call without touching the screen. But when I press my bluetooth button the phone doesn't even wake up. Sometimes the vlingo app will come on and tell me how many calls I have missed, but it doesn't let me make a call through the headset.
If I reach over and press the power button then the phone turns on and the vlingo starts up. I don't care for the Vlingo but will live it until I get brave enough to root to freeze it.
But is there a setting my phone will wake up the screen when I press the call button on my headset?
I just got a note 2,switched from a Nexus. I disabled menu/back buttons and enabled soft keys. I also disabled the S voice double click but even though it's disabled, when I hold Down the button, S voice still turns on. So I uninstalled S voice but when I hold down the button, i get a quick black screen where Touchwiz is trying to open S voice but it doesnt load up.
When I hold down the home button on my brothers note 2 ,S voice doesn't load up, so why the he'll is touchwiz loading up S voice when it's uninstalled and isn't supposed to happen in the first place
