Apologies if this has been asked and answered elsewhere. I've searched the xda forums, T-Mobile forums, Cyanogen forums and Google. All to no avail.
I'm a big user of hands free dialing. I've used Choice Dialer and Cyberon Voice Commander in the past. They both worked w/stock.
I'm using CM7 Nightly 74, and both CD and Cyberon work fine, as long as I'm not connected to BT. Once connected to BT, the programs will open when asked, but will freeze, not giving or asking for any commands. And they generally end in a FC.
The stock voice dialer program works, as it doesn't have to give "verbal" commands. I just hate having to take my eyes off the road and hands off the wheel to choose from a list of possibles.
I understand that A2DP is not working in CyanogenMod, but does this also apply to tts commands? Since tts comes in over the phone part of my BT device (and not the media), I didn't think the A2DP issue applied.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
G2X p999
CyanogenMod 7 (Nightly 44)
KD-BT1 (bluetooth stereo)
I'm running CM nightly 97 and still can't get pico tts to work over bluetooth. I've tried both enabling device media (A2DP) and disabling it, it makes no difference.

Did anyone manage it to run MS VoiceCommand via a bluetooth headset on this device?
Ok, I installed the latest version of voice command on the new O2 XDA Orbit 2.
It works good with the bluetooth headset without any patches.
However call notification does not work. Does anyone have any idea for that?
How can I disable Voice Command and make all sound being routed to the headset?
The solution with Mortscript (posted somewhere else in this forum) does not work... any other idea?
ulischultz, how did you manage to get ms voice command to work? I've got the HTC Touch Cruise, and I can't get MSVC to work via bluetooth. Works fine on my AT&T tilt with no hacks.

I am having the exact same problem: voice command works but will not announce incomming calls. I can't believe how much I've become dependent upon this feature. As for getting it to work, there was nothing special that I had to do other than install it and soft boot.

I was having problems with some random disconnects of my TC from the car Parrot 3200LS BT Handsfree CarSystem.
I found this program mentioned on another site(http://www.htcwizardweb.net/node/456 ):
JETware Mobile (http://www.jetwaremobile.com/
I installed the trial today and so far it appears to be making a significant difference with the TC and MS VoiceCommand.

Is it the nature of the bluetooth stack implimentation or poor application development practices or something else that makes using the stereo headsets a royal pain? Originally thinking it might be a ROM issue, I went on the hunt.
I've done a number of experiments running different ROMs with the various radios and used different a/v apps to listen on my Jabra BT8010. The result of my effort is total confusion.
ROMs used: various flavors from Alex, Dutty, Schap, Quentin and a couple others.
Radios used: each of the flavors based on ATT or HTC available
Apps used: Each of the media players, MS VoiceCommand(VC), XM Radio, Pocket Talk and a few others.
Results seemed to show that any ROM (i.e. regardless of the ROM) may have intermittent or consistant problems with any application depending on the order in which things are done. The problems vary...sometimes media would work but VC and/or XM would not. Sometimes, working meant only one ear would work. Sometimes everything works, then not after running either VC or XM.
So what am I looking for writing this thread? Direction. I'd like to understand how bluetooth/audio works on the Tilt product. Point me in the DIRECTION where I might find answers to "how this stuff" is set up to work.
Based on my testing, it seems that BT implimentation via the MS stack AND poorly written SW are the culprits. Please clue me in if you can.
BTW, I saw someone reccomend a BT app from Jetware to help with this sort of thing. I used it and it seems to help occassionally, but not always

me too..any solutions out there?..been scouring the board and trying diff settings but no joy,my bt stereo headphones used to work with dutty's 7b...now at dutty v4 rtm only one channel(left ear) works
rich
well...found a work around
I poked around a bit more after my last post. I have the plantronics stereo BT headset. I found that after pairing with the tilt (dutty v4 rtm)if I disable handsfree, do a soft reset then re-enable handsfree that I can get both stereo channels to work and hands free functions to work also. Convoluted I know, but its working at least..many bluetooth stack issues I guess.

I've tried other things that seemed to work but after a reset or power down or something else, seemed temporary. I will however try your suggested workaround. Thanks for posting.
Do you use Cyberon Voice Commander 2.0 by any chance? If so, what's the status of its' working condition? Thanks.
cyberion
i'm not using cyberion in dutty's v4, I installed it but could not find the tab to add voice tags in the contacts list, sooo no way to use it then. It worked fine in his v7b release though.

I've had my new x10 for nearly a month, but I'm having trouble getting the functionality of one of my favorite Windows Mobile apps: Voice Command.
Does anyone have a good list of programs to grab for Android 2.1 that could perform the same workload as VC? I know Vlingo comes close, but it doesn't interface with my BT Headset the way VC did.
Features I'm missing:
- Voice output to BT Headset
- Activate voice control via BT Headset (On my Plantronics 320, I could do a long-press on the headset's control button to activate VC and give it orders)
One other function I'm missing is the ability to output media audio to my headset like 'acbToggleBT' would do. I've tried a few A2DP apps on the market, but they don't work. I'd appreciate some suggestions on this as well!
I finally got vlingo working properly, but there's a small detail.... It doesn't read incoming messages through the headset. Am I missing a setting or tweak to enable this?
I think there Cyberon offers Cyberon Commander for Android, which unlike its predecessor does not require tags. I have not yet tried it, but I, too, am looking for an MSVC replacement in the Android world.
is it only me, or voice command are pretty useless?
I can't really imagine any use for them besides while probably driving.
I am using AOPK 4.12 and when trying to initate voice commands via my Bluetooth device I am having some trouble. Voice Dialer pops up when I push the talk button on my Bluetooth headset, but it doesn't pick up my voice at all. I have tried Cyberon Voice Command app, and another bluetooth headset. Am I missing something, doing something wrong? I've been trying to fix this for days and figured it was finally time to ask for assistance.
Thanks for any ideas or info you can give me =).

unfortunately with jellybean, voice commands no longer use the Bluetooth microphone. Instead, only the phone's mic will pick up your voice, even when connected to a Bluetooth device (headset, car, etc.)
I really wish this wasn't the case as I just got a Bluetooth mic for my car and its now useless.. There's no fix at the moment
I just recently bought a new camry and one of the things I noticed was that malluuba would never get to the sound wave after I hit the mic while connected to my car. By going into the Bluetooth settings and un checking media audio, it will begin working for me. If you are just using the Bluetooth mic to make calls and such, just do that as a temporary work around.

Are there any 4.2.2 ROMs out there? I read somewhere this issue might be fixed then.
I have a bluetooth headset and am running mastamoon's unofficial CM10.1 ROM. It is still sometimes wiggy, although it works better than official CM10.1. I am able to speak commands to google search after hitting the microphone icon on the phone. Is there a way to do this without having to press a button on the phone? An app maybe? I haven't had the bluetooth headset for very long.
Anyone have a truly 'working' ROM that does BT dialing? I must have tried a dozen or more ROMs for my Desire S ranging from v2.3 up to v4.2 and still haven't found an 'every day' driver that has working Bluetooth Voice Dialing. Note: car kit doesn't count, has to work from headset. Have to be hands-free in CA. Oh, and I have to take job-site photos so camera has to work with no 'lock-ups'. I am very eager to DONATE to a working ROM effort.
Me too
I have this issue
