I've searched this forum for any known issues with MS Voice Commander (MSVC) on the Touch Cruise / Polaris, and haven't found any that are relavent. Since the Cruise is a WM device, can I assume MSVC will work ok on a new Cruise? I bought v1.6 about a year ago for my TyTN, which I don't have anymore. Thanks for any thoughts.
You can use it.
I can confirm it works perfectly with the Touch Cruise, bluetooth features and all (even when using a handsfree/a2dp/avcrp setup). Absolutely awesome program btw for those that don't have it.
Its working perfectly on my o2 orbitII /poaris/
Thanks everyone!
i can't get mine to announce calls. what settings are you guys using? thanks!
I had MS Voice Commander installed and liked it at first. But over time it seemed to get confused and almost never dialed calls correctly. Obviously unlike Voice Dialer, you can't go back and "re-record" your voice for a particular user, so in the end I removed it and went without.
Only problem is Voice Dialer isn't part of udK's R0 image. So I'll have to go find it at some point and get it re-installed!

The hw6945 seems like a pretty interesting phone, but the fact that it doesn't have voice dialing pretty well cancels it for me. BUT as with the HTC phones I've had in the past, they use Cyberon's Voice Dialer (use voice tags associated with contact's numbers) which I prefer with almost 500 contacts ( M$ programs can't handle the variations in contacts I have and Cyberon works GREAT with HTC). The HTC devices have all been WM5 as is the hw6945. There are several Cyberon CABs floating around on this site, has anyone had any luck with installing Cyberon on HP IPAQ hw series phone? Thanks for your input!
Found A Cyperon CAB that worked!
Can't believe no one answered this, BUT I did get a Cyberon cab file that worked! Searched several evenings, tried 2 today and got lucky with the 2nd one. The hw6925 now works just like my 8525 and P3600!
I recently switched from using the ATT Tilt to the Cruise (mainly because it's smaller/lighter to carry around) It's mainly working ok, but I have a few questions:
1) Does anyone know of a decent handwriting recognition software out there I could use? On the TILT i got used to the "block-recognizer," as the lesser of evils, but i would LOVE to find software that can use the whole screen. I use these devices a lot, so after a while that lower left corner becomes all scratched up (even using a screen protector) , and then you have to pay about $200 for a new screen, since the characters no long respond well to Block Recognizer. I"ve tried the "Transcriber" that comes with Windows Mobile 6, and it seems awful, as do the several other programs i found online, such as Pen Writer and Caligrapher, i think they're called? Back when i used Palm/Treo devices, i really loved the Teal Script program, but it doesn't seem to work for W Mobile? Anyone know of anything that could work??
2) Some things worked better on the Tilt, i guess becuase of the ATT software? For example, on Tilt you can use the word completion software in the Calendar mode, but on the Cruise it doesn't come up. And the word completion software "remembers" two-word or longer phrases in the ATT Tilt software, but not in the Cruise. Is there any work-around to be able to do this on the Cruise too??
3) Is it worth trying to upgrade to 6.1 on the Cruise, through some kind of cooked ROM, or better to wait until HTC finally (hopefully) releases the 6.1 ware??
Thanks much!!
Daniel
1. sounds like transcriber

Sorry, but Transcriber is already on the device, and it seem terrible to use?!! Isn't there ANYTHING out there that works ok??
Thx much!

Has anyone tried the Stowaway/Thinkoutside Bluetooth keyboard with the Touch pro yet?
I had one for my 6700, but it got stolen out of my car 2 weeks ago so I never had a chance to test it with my new touch pro. I'm debating whether to purchase a replacement.
The reason I'm concerned about using the bluetooth keyboard - is that HTC messed with the key assignment such that it's impossible to reassign keys in other programs without running "Kfortouchpro" in the background. If the bluetooth keyboard uses the standard definitions, then it wouldn't work.
I'd appreciate any feedback.
And typing should be better. I am missing my keybord for my palm TX too.
German Computer Magazin CT was writing something about this mini BT keybord which shoul be working with PDAs: http://www.maxpoint.de/de/products/keyboards.php?pid=1_3_7&we_objectID=608
The ACK-3400 U should be developed for PDAs. But it is missing some manuals and parameters. Thats why getting your PDAs working via BT should be "luck".
I think this keyboard is a good salution becaus there is no mechanic for falting. I am working much with my old keyboard and I had to replace it after 2 years...
I am really interested in using a bluetooth keyboard. Let me know if there is some new information.
http://www.au-ja.de/review-keysonic-htpc-btkeyboards-4.phtml
This is a test...
There is no word on testing the keybord via bluetooth on a PDA.
regards Olaf
I used to have this one for my 6700:
http://www.110220volts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=SBT5ER
I can confirm that it worked great. It folded up into the size of a deck of cards and was just as fast as a regular keyboard.
They're very popular - so I'm surprised no one's answered my question directly yet.
I'm hoping this keyboard (or one of the many like it) is compatible with the Touch Pro so I can buy a replacement. Damn thieves. :-(
My igo stowaway BT KB works on my fuze, although when I shutdown the program, it gives me a "we're sorry ... a problem..." and wants to send a report. I just don't send. It seems everything works, just that flaky thing. I use the PPC5 eng. driver online.

Thanks! That's the kind of information I was looking for. I appreciate the help.
I picked up an AT&T Fuze on Friday; it paired up just fine with my Freedom Universal Keyboard. It uses the HID profile, so no drivers required.
Then that freedom KB board may be a better bet, because of the HID.
Cyberon Voice Commander, that came on my TouchPro, sucks so badly.
Not only doesn't it work very well, but the women's voice is so annoying,
I would throw her out of bed!
I liked the older MS Voice Command much better. does anyone know if this progrma works on the TouchPro.
MS Voice Command works great with Touch Pro...AT&T actually includes it with the Fuze.

http://rs555cg.rapidshare.com/files/141620026/1409235/Microsoft.Voice.Command.v1.6.19213.rar for the cab extracted from that ROM.
Extracting a program from a certain phone that is came with to place it on a phone it didnt originally come with is considering warez.
We all know about warez and links to it on this forum
Forewarning
It is hit or miss with me....goes something like this.
Press button on headset...beep beep
Me: Call George Smith
Phone: Call Bill Smith
Me: Cancel
Phone: Cancel
Me: press button...beep beep
Me: Call George Smith
Phone: Call Jorge Symth?
Me: Cancel
................
20 minutes later
Me: press contacts locate George Smith, hit call.
Sometimes it works perfectly, sometimes, it thinks I can't speak English.
Comical, but that's been my luck with voice dial, "you talk, it types" programs etc...Speech is a strange thing. I'm sure it will get fixed one of these days,
but there are so many variables with speech.

1. Is there any way to completely delete Cyberon Voice Commander from my Touch Pro.
I would like to do this before I load MS Voice Command.
2. DeniaL, I've got a store bought copy of MS Voice Command v. 1.5.
Do you know if this version will run on The Touch Pro?
3. Does MS offer a free upgrade from 1.5 to 1.6?
I think the Voice commander chick is mocking me!

1. there are some custom made ROMs out there w/o this annoying Cyberon thingy - but remove without reflashing: nope. It's burnt into ROM. But after installing MSVC, deleting an existing pairing with your Headset and reconnecting it's quite gone. MSVC has taken over then. More in the guide down below - and even more in the original thread beyond posting 9.
2. I'm not DeniaL, but in former times there was a very VERY fine tutorial for it from bengalih - Definitive Guide for Microsoft Voice Command (MSVC) on the Kaiser/Tilt 2.0 - it's now partially gone as well as bengalih - respectively bengalih has taken his wisdom with him. -- Originally written for Kaiser but works on raphael like a charm (tested). (original article as attachment below)
MSVC 1.5 is intended for use with WM 5.0, it's very outdated and will not work; 1.6 was built for WM 6.x but works with WM5 as well.
3. Do you believe in miracles? - NO i suppose - and so does Microsoft. But PocketGear has an ---> offer for 10 US$
So long and HTH
EDIT: There are different versions:
US-english, UK-english, french, german, ...(even more?).
Since I use the german one I don't know if the two english versions differ in voice synthesis.

LOL at the video, that's cool. Well, I'm using Vista's voice recognition casually (Vista Business) and without training I get fairly good results. Maybe 'cos I don't have neither an accent nor a dialect. I think results with my spoken english might differ even it's fair enough tho (no ugly german accent)
Other fine results
But MSVC on Windows Mobile may have some problems b/c english is very colorful: kiwi, aussie, oxford, scottish, canadian, north, east, west, south, middle, west-coast, [...] the individuality is overwhelming and there is no option to train (which is a pretty bummer) but that's why there are UK and US versions: the recognition schemes are different.
But as far as I can say a major problem is: speaking too loud, speaking too slow, speaking in discrete words other than in a flow, eating up the microphone... just hold it 1 ft. or 30cm in front of your face and speak just normally - and have microphone auto-amp off. Very fine results for my part. Maybe with a bit more forté --- and in louder environment just a bit nearer and cover the mic with your finger after your last word is said. (...kay... took me three months to perfectionalize that) AND to make use of more nicknames (typed like the spoken name sounds like; helps a lot!)
Just my five cents, hth and so long
