Hi All,
All my searches on trying to find a resolution of Nexus S not working with Bluetooth voicedial have come up short.
Here's the problem:
I have tryed with multiple bluetooth devices.
The headset pairs fine.
The headset works fine when carring a conversation.
When holding the Voice dial on the BT Headset the "Blue Tooth Voice Dialer" prompt pops up on my nexus S
At which time it just does nothing. Like it doesnt even hear me speaking into the BT headset.
When I use the Voice Dial feature without Bluetooth it works fine, but whenever using a Bluetooth Headset (No Matter Which One) it will never dial a number.
Does everyone else have this issue on their Nexus S? If not, what is the difference between your set and mine? I'm just at a loss why the Nexus S will not work with Voice Dialing over Bluetooth.

Nokia BH-600 (an oldie, I know) works fine with voice dialing. This isn't particularly helpful, but it does work with some headsets.
When you hit the voice dial button do you get the "Speak Now" prompt in the BT headset?
Everything works except if I hit my button on my band new Bluetooth headeset. I got it working by using Clinton as my default for voice dialing. It works with the Bluetooth headset.

This will install newest bt stack.
I should also ask which ROM you're using. The newer ROMs seem to be a lot better.
I'd also like anyone who could to tell me which BT stack is included on the newer ROMs, like Nitro or vjgrace.

my ROM is WM6 by vjgrace v3.4
Again I could describe my Nokia BH-101 BT headset with handsfree functionality on WM6 by vjgrace v3.5. It works nice as headset i can hera incoming calls, answer them, call last dialed number. But I CAN NOT make it start voice calling, due to device itself - it does sounds special tone that means that voice dial is started, but my phone does not recognise it. by the way useing celetask - there is special feature - that alows you to redirect all sound to headset and it work. As for me i don't need it (you are to have special BT Headset for listening to music. This headset generates rather bad sound(but not voice).
So again
I can do:
makle calls,
answer calls,
dial last dialed call.
swap and hold calls.
I can not do:
make voice dial
any voice commands
What are the problems:
Everytime I answer the call not by the headset but via the phone it looses the connection with headset, so i need to restart BT service (or headset).
It happens even if I answer by headset but during the call i need to speak via phone then i press right softkey and choose "turn handsfree off" and aain phone looses the headset
In this case I I make new call but in right soft key menu "turn handsfree on" is not active
If it's possible to make phone speak contact's name litterally during incoming call so i could know who is calling me.
IRC, voice dialling with WM phones is a bit of a problem. I seem to recall reading about this somewhere in the XDA-Dev forums.
On my headset, the function that calls for redial is the same for voice dial (wtf? I know.) It always redials.
As for the speaking of the contacts' names, it should be possible... if your phone can speak the contacts' recorded voice names w/o BT.
I'm sure you've heard of this issue before but I was unable to find a fix!
I have been using VC1.6 through strictly the device mic / speaker and it has worked great except for some reason it does not announce incoming calls.
Currently using ATT TILT with WM6
Using 520 Plantronics BT Headset
I downloaded "Bluetooth Voice Command Configuration" from XCSdM but it doesn't seem to do anything to help!
When I press the talk/end button on the Headset it enables the bluetooth static but it does not give the VC prompt.
I'd also like it to be able to announce incoming calls through the bluetooth!
Anyone?!
Well, I got the incoming calls to announce!!! Now all I need to do is find out how to get the VC1.6 and my bluetooth synced so that when I press my bluetooth headset button it activates the VC...
Please? LOL
Does your bluetooth headset support the handsfree profile? Not all headsets support the handsfree profile (even if you can use it to pick up and answer calls). I've got VC 1.6 and voice command working just fine with my Tilt and Jabra 8010.
edit: seems your plantronics does support the HFP. Did you ensure you "checked" the box for Hands Free Service when you paired it?
Yes, it's completely paired and the handsfree is checked :-\
I'm stumped. I get incoming call notifications, I get announcement reminders, etc.... but when I push the button on the headset it tries to initiate (or answer) a call.... If I hold it down, it powers off the headset. If I double click it, it calls the last person I talked to.
Maybe I just don't know how to function my headset to get it to prompt for VC?
I followed the "RandyRants" Tip to get everything working and it did activate the announcement of incoming calls, etc... just can't make commands yet.
I'm also using the BT VC Config enabled @ 30 duration.
I'm 1/2 way there!! Now I just need to cross the finish line...
Here's the link yo RandyRants that I followed: http://www.randyrants.com/2007/05/wm6_tip_voice_c.html
Any advice?
I have voice dialing over BT with 2.1. I am wondering why some are saying it is not there. Unless the wireless BT function in my car operates in a different manner. doesn't that use BT for voice dialing? That would have been a deal breaker for me if I could not dial over BT in the car/
How do you use it? I'm interested! I have a cheap Jabra earpiece; with my old Nokia dumbphone I just pressed the button on the earpiece, and I would get an audio "prompt"; saying the name of the contact would trigger dialing.
Pushing the same button now does not seem to work with the Captivate.

Most car BT has its own voice dialing feature. It doesn't depend on phone's voice dialing feature.
The G3 seems to use the phone mic, not the Bluetooth headset mic for all audio input. I don't recall having this issue with my S5. I know this used to be a huge android issue but I though they had this worked out. The issue is that when I hit the button on my Bluetooth headset to place a call or whatever, the G3 switches to the phone mic for input. The problem is that if your phone is in your pocket, it can't hear you. Can anyone confirm this? Does anyone know of a solution?
After trying just about every voice recognition and control app on the play store I think I can say with certainty that the only app that, on the G3, is able to use the microphone on a Bluetooth headset for input is the Google app. Unfortunately this is not the Google Now app, it's the older Google app which is limited to phone only calls via voice command and requires umpteen confirmations before your call is placed. I'm pretty sure this is an android limitation at this point and is in no way confined to the G3 alone. sigh...
Would this be a function of the make/model of Bluetooth device in any way?
I use google now, dialer pad, voice dial, etc. through my Plantronics earpieces (carry 3 for work, on phone a lot) with the g3 in my pocket, and I have no issues w/BT mic.
I use an LG tone Pro headset as well as the Sync function in my Ford Explorer and both work just fine when connected via BT. Also, I can use voice commands thru my LG G Watch, so I think you may have an issue related to your phone.
What have you "done" to it? Rooted? Xposed MODs? Etc..?
Hi,
I've just sold my G3 and the more I read the more I like the idol 3.
But I have one concern I can not solve.
as a motorbike rider I need to be able o initiate calls from the headset on the helmet.
does any one have tested this.
use the headset not just for paying music but also to start the voice assistant and say things like "call dad". "text carla" "play all songs"
The really important part is the calling texting is just for change the command.
can any one try that?
Thank you

No they aren't; one is a taotronics earphone, other is an LG tune pro headset and the other one is a sennheiser headphone. I click a button and just talk with Google Now. I have this app setup to allow Google Now (instead of stock voice calls) to be my voice assistant. The app is called BT Gnow. Is great for handsfree operations specially when I'm running cable drops... With Google Now you get over 100 voice commands and with BT Gnow you can do it with the screen off via Bluetooth.

Using BT Gnow does google's response come back through the bluetooth speakers? When in my car I can say "ok google, call xxxx at home" and it will but I can hear it responding from the phone but the sound doesn't come through the car's audio...once the phone call starts ringing the sound DOES come through the speakers.

Google response is heard via Bluetooth and not the cellphone: So say I have my LG headset paired, I can talk and hear everything from my LG headset using Google now.
One more question.
finally I bought the idol 3 and I'm loving it.

I've got a grey screen that sais something like "starting" or "inizializing" (sorry my phone is configured in spanish)
