As I have only data and sms on my subscription on my Tab I would like to have a dialer on the tab which uses my gmail contacts (they are already synced to the tab) to make a call through my Nexus One phone.
Then I could keep it in my pocket or somewhere else during driving as I use the tab for music and navigation in my car.
Does anyone know of a dialer that can do this?
That would definitely be cool.
So, you want the Tab/Nexus to immitate a bluetooth headset?

Just the tab.
So. I don't recall having seen anything that remotely controls a cellphone. However, couldn't you have google voice make a call the same way it does when you use it from your pc and it first calls the number associated with your google voice account, then connects the call with the desired contact?
I know that is not specifically what you are looking for but might provide some ideas.
Otherwise, from what I understand you are saying is basically a remote controll for your phone? It doesnt necissarily need to be via bluetooth. I control my ip handset over the internet with the tie in to my enterprise im client. I can control any of the several ip phones I have attached to my profile in the call manager.
Let me know if you find this elsewhere. Looks like a great application for the tab. Im starting to have device overload!

I thought he wanted to use the Nexus for calls using his tabs data plan(?)

While watching QVC last night[?!!?!?], some muppet from HP was trying to flog a massively overpriced laptop. One feature which attracted my attention was that he made a hands free phone call using his laptop paired via bluetooth to his phone.
I am struggling to find information about this feature on the interweb, but on this page (http://dummy-essentials.blogspot.com/2010/07/make-phone-calls-via-computer-using.html) apparently all you need to do is pair the laptop and phone and then double click which takes you to a screen where you can dial the number.
I have paired my phone to my laptop but it doesn't seem to have any features or show any capabilities - does this mean that Windows needs specific drivers for compatibility?
Anyone use this feature? Anyone know how to make it work?
Cheers all
Just go to Gmail and make a phone call. It's free and doesn't use your cell minutes

While everyone's stated that Google Voice for Honeycomb is in the works, I thought I'd try the *.apk hacked together here and it actually worked fine on the TF as well.
On a side note, obviously that'll only work for text messages as calls can't be made or received over data with Google Voice. Anybody ever use GrooVe IP? I'm curious if anybody has used it to do Google Voice over data (on their tablet or even on a phone, just curious how well it works / how the experience is). It sounds very interesting. The tablet could almost be used as a house/speaker phone, over our Google Voice line.

I did a test call to myself from my TF with just Groove IP and it made the call. Couldn't test the quality because it was just me.
I also tested this on my wifi Galaxy Tab and it worked.
Edit: tried a real call on Galaxy tab w a BT headset and it didn't pick up the voice. It looks like others are having luck with it on the TF which is great.
I am going to try this on my Transformer.
Quick Question:
I am going to the Bahamas next week and am taking my Transformer. If I get this to work and have a Wifi connection down there, do you think I will be able to make calls with my GV or would I be charged a roaming fee?
This is awesome. I can send text messages from my TF now.

This should work fine, as the developer himself stated in a thread I was reading about it. I'll try and get a link. As long as you have internet, and a Google Voice account, GrooVe IP should work. Granted, I still haven't bought it, but I'm thinking about it.
Question: If you purchase an app and have two Android devices, it should work for both for the price of one right?
GrooveIP works fine on the Transformer. I just made a couple of calls over my Google Voice using it on the TF.
The only issue I've had with it is that the dialing screen is orientation locked to portrait which makes it look ridiculous (and makes it a bit hard to interact with) when you're in docked mode or otherwise using landscape orientation.

For texting on google voice, is there anyway for the texts to appear as they come in?
The only settings I can find, is for the application to refresh every XX minutes.

No you don't have to have voice installed. I had a hard time setting up my GrooVe IP and found that you must completely exit from the app and restart for the settings to take effect. My voice username is my email address and when typing it in for some reason the keyboard kept wanting to put an extra space in the address. After I corrected that and exited out I was fine.

Am I missing something or does the phone really not have "Voice Dialer" on it? That seems kindof nuts?
Not nuts - more Tmo/HTC weirdness
Here you go
***edit 6-23-11
There are mixed reports of Voice Dialer fc'ing when trying to call. The current Voice Search will actually directly dial for me now so I'd go with that or Vlingo seems to be popular if VDialer isn't working.

There was an update to Voice Search a day ago maybe that changed something because Dialer was working for me. The first time I used Voice Search it tried to search google but after making sure my pronunciations were better it worked the same as Voice Dialer was - note that the way Voice Dialer was working was not the same as on my N1 - no calls are getting initiated. Every time it prompts me to do what it thinks I said. I'm not sure if that's cuz it's broken or because it has learned what to expect yet.
Weirdness - just tried VSearch and it direct dials and everything - no need for voice dialer.

When we're rooted (bootloader unlocked) there is a chance that whatever dependency failure is occurring can be resolved in a modded htc s4g stock rom or we can just load up cm7 or hopefully a stock release (my preference).

is there a app that I can use to make the phone hear commands through my Jawbone headset?
I just want to be able to call someone while driving by pressing the voice command button on my headset...
everything else works but the voice command... I can redial with a couple button presses of the headset, answer and hangup calls, ect.
the apk posted works but not through the headset. it hears you from the phone's microphone... not very functional when driving.
plus Google's version that's included in the phone has better speech recognition.
why didn't HTC include this function?
It isn't working as well as I thought it would. After I speak, it pops up a menu and asks me who I want to call. Isn't the idea not to use the phone while driving? No idea why it is not recognizing the speech.

I have couple of wired issues with my Samsung Galaxy S 3
SMS Notifications:
Sometimes, not always, only sometimes, I get an SMS but no notification is given. No statusbar notification and no sound/viberate notifications.
Nothing at all.
When open my SMS app, I can then see there is one unread message.
I even have reminder of unread messages which it remindes me of unread messages every 10mins., not even this notify me of these messages.
Does anyone have this issue?
Bluetooth headset:
Sometimes, when I start talking using my Jabra headset, all of sudden, there no more sound on it, then I need to press the button on the phone saying headset to switch back to phone and again press headset to switch again to headset, then it works.
Sometimes I have to switch between phone and headset once to get it to work, others, It happens every minute in a conversation so I need to switch between phone and headset everytime.
Anybody have such issues?
A bit more information about your setup would help us help you. Are you stock or running a ROM? How long has the text message thing been going on?
I bet the messaging problem is a network issue. It will probably go away in a day or less.
BTW wired means something uses a cable, opposite of wireless. Weird is synonymous with strange or bizarre.

Nope. In order for it to work with non-Samsung devices you need to install Gear Manager and Atb manager apps on your devices, no way to do that with iphone.
Edit: Did a quick search online and someone said they connected it to an iPhone and it did make calls. When you get it try using blutooth and connect it to your iphone.
wont work
The gear 2 arrived and not visible to the iphone but works great with my note 3 maybe there will be a test firmware out soon.

Works indeed on my iPhone 5S, nice
Too bad no other notifications (SMS, Whatsapp, ...) are sent to the iPhone..
Hopefully with a jailbreak tweak? + rooted Gear 2?
So just a quick recap:
The Gear 2 does connect with the iPhone through BT and calling and receiving calls works, as well as contacts and call logs.
Can someone confirm?

Your gear is going to reset every time you repair it. When it goes to the setup connection screen, tap the watch icon in the top left about 20-25 times, it will then show a message at the bottum. After that message disappears hold down on the watch icon until you get to the clock screen. This will activate without connection. Then go to setting>connections>Bluetooth and hit make visible. Your iPhone will show it as 'gear 2 (xxxx) hit that and it will pair. The only thing working so far are the stand alone apps and calling.
