OK guys,
here is the final solution for the issue. By default, Voice Commander 1.6 built-in WM6 ROMs is unable to be activated from Bluetooth headset. The most common workaround here was reinstalling VC over the default one. That costs you couple megs of storage wasted, older/uglier icon in Settings, and slower device overall. No need to do it anymore! Here is a simple registry hack that enables bluetooth activation of VC.
Don't forget to soft-reset after installing.
!! Yoz !!
Brilliant !!
Great job! I will try it the next time I flash my rom again!
Great Find
Thank you! Works like a charm...
just out of curiosity, did you figure this out yourself or find it. if the former then how and if the latter where?
I have WM6 on the 8125, with the 2.19 radio, and this isn't working for me. It keeps saying that there was an error with voice command and that I should restart it. I reset my phone a couple times to make sure that it worked, but it isn't. How do you uninstall the cab? Or will reinstalling vc 1.6 take care of it?
Found this out by myself by exploring the VC 1.6 CAB with WinCE CAB Manager and comparing the registry values it adds to the system after installation with the existing ones. I figured out before that simple replacement of all built-in VC's files with the files of retail VC doesnt show any result. So, I found the difference here:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway]
"BTAGExtModule"="vcbthag.dll"
- that's the key from installation CAB. The default value of the BTAGExtModule key is different. I tried to change it appropriately, soft-reseted - and voila!
The CAB posted here just changes the registry key mentioned above. You can get the same result by editing your registry manually.
So far I did not notice any side effects of this reg hack. If you can not install this CAB, there is probably something to do with allowing installation of the unsigned CABs on your device. Anyway, you can edit your registry by hand.
You are my new best friend. I was sure this was possible but thought I was going to have to spend a whole day working it out. Downloaded your cab and 2 minutes later my Plantronics 590a headphones work flawlessly.
Thanks again for saving me a lot of time and a few grey hairs!

Hi Everyone,
I have a nice shiny orange spv m700. Unfortuantly, in Orange's wisdom they supply a ROM which does not have any form of thumb based text entry.
In order not to void my warranty I am not going to flash the ROM. Especially as I have tomtom 6 working perfectly and removed the orange garbage from the today screen.
However I am going mad withouth t9 text entry! I have downloaded and installed phonepad english, phonepad international, tengothumb and none of them work! They install fine but not come up when you select them. Ive tried setting them to default text entry but to no avail. I have installed them on the device not the memory card and there is lots of memory spare.
Can someone please help me has anyone found the trick? I have 7 days to return the phone but until i try phonepad i dont know whether i want to keep it (never used a phone withouth keyboard before).
Thanks in advance
Warny
me too
i have been asking about this too the last day or so. the dopod rom has it built in but i am worried that once i have put the dopod rom on then i cant go back to the orange one if i dont want to keep the phone.
No one seems to be replying about dumping my original orange rom so at the mo we are a bit stuffed.

Try install the attached cab, then goto program>G4 SIP Startup select phonepad as default SIP, then softreset. However TengoThumb would not work for Trinity for some reason.

Install phonepad, then G4 SIP tweak, then select phonepad as startup SIP in G4 SIP Tweak, soft-reset. It works for me.

thank you for the solution!! worked first time for me, installed the tweak then phone pad english and soft resetted. so glad to have phonepad back!
OK I got the G4 Sip program installed but the phonepad never works - just pops up the standard keyboard. I have a Orange M700 - any suggestions? Thanks
Uninstall both then install sip change, reinstall phone pad select phone pad as default and it should work...
Or if all else fails purchase SK tools as this always works and has many useful extra features.
Thanks for all the useful info
I got mine working on my SPV M700 by:
1) Uninstall SIP Change & Phone Pad & G4 SIP Tweak (If you have any of them installed already)
2) Copy G4 SIP Tweak CAB to PPC and install
3) Soft Reset
4) Copy Phone Pad CAB to PPC and install
5) Soft Reset
6) Copy SIP Change CAB to PPC and install
7) Soft Reset
8) Start SIP Change (From Start Menu - Programs) and select Phone Pad and make sure delay is set to 10
9) Soft Reset
This is the only way I have managed to get mine working, and I dare not reset the device again incase it fails lol
Yet another hapless convert to smartphone

Hi, hope this thread isn't dead just yet...as a newbie here and a recent convert to the world of the touch screen... I've had a good search around the web for a thumb entry system (have to admit thought is was a standard feature on smartphones cos I'd seen it working on an O2 XDAmini. So was more than a little dissappointed to find it wasn't on the M700 (after my 7 day's were up).
I've tried installing tengo thumb with the same limited success as a previous contributor, lots of resets I assume a soft reset is button on the bottom you prod with the stylus?
I've tried various combinations of loading G4 SIP Tweak, and Phone Pad cab, and have the 'Phone Pad appears in list but doesn't do anything' problem...
I noticed in your post you mentioned uninstalling 'SIP Change' that's some I've not downloaded separately, got the G4 SIP tweak and the phone pad.
Also there appears to be two places (3 including the input icon in settings) where you can select Phone Pad there's 'G4 SIP Hide' in the sytem menu where it say's don't choose the wrong SIP here as its likely to **** everything up. And then there's the 'G4 Sip Startup changer' in my programs directory. Are either of these the 'G4 SIP Tweak' utility.
So i'll give it another go but wondered if I've
1. got the right cab's, tweaks and whistles
2. got my SIP application confused
3. just plain confused
Any help greating appreciated.
Also must be trying too hard with the stylus as I'm on no. 2 already!
Thanks for listening
Awesome, this has been plaguing me for a long time, whatever i did i could not get any keyboard except the standard ones to stick and be useable, fine with a stylus, no good for one handed operation.
Now it all works and like the rest its a case of remove anything resembling SIP management and alternate SIPs and then install G4 Tweak and then Phone Pad, select PhonePad in the G4 interface and soft reset. Bingo a working phone pad.

I was in a similar position to you. I managed to get mine working eventually - I found that I didn't need Sip Change. I just installed SIP Tweak, then Phone Pad. I think perhaps the key thing is to soft reset immediately after selecting Phone Pad on Tweak. Once I'd done that it finally worked, and has continued to work even after when I've shut down normally.

Sound
Hi
I found a problem with the system sound, and cant get it figured out.
I installed the WM6 sound fix, but its if the sounds "jumps" and is not fluent.
When i listen to a track on media player, the songs jumps.
Its like something is working in the background or summin.
Has anyone else experience this?
Cheers!
Hmm, for me MediaPlayer plays mp3 fluently... heck, even AudioManager plays without choking - everything is fine.
And scrolling InternetExplorer on polish locale settings is fast, too.
Strange problems... specially you, rac - you're reporting quite many problems. I have no idea why it's working so bad for you Probably there's problem with one of your softs installed. Did you format your hive and storage after flashing? It seems to me as it weren't done, thus having really garbaged hive.

Hi there!
The ROM is working great now, now hang ups, not slow, nothing,
Im really happy with it!!
When i use Resco Radio, with WIFI, the sound is perfect, no glitches etc.
Its only WM player, really strange. When i reflashed it yesterday, the media player worked fine.
Its probably caused by some or other software, but i cant figure it out!
I will install winamp tonight, and se if it does the same!
Thanks for all your help Utak3r!
jawbreaker do not have the right and left button(visable),it means we can't restart the game until the dev soft-rest
I don't know who mention this, but the navigation keys (arrows keys) is not functioning properly in landscape mode.

I have same problem with my Blue Angel with Helmi_c WM6.
Is a solution in sight?
Slow_scroll_bug-solution
For the slow and jerky scrolling in PIE on large pages ihave found a possible solution.
Have a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1503310&postcount=1480
I have only copied all exe,dll,mui files into windows folder.
After reboot my Blue Angel with Helmi_c WM6 scrollingspeed is again very fast.
Hope this information is helpful.

Guys, feedback on the sound. I installed Winampaq, and the sound is great! No problems.
I think something i installed does not work with my Media player!!
So im sorted!
Also, the device does not hang up or anything. So the problem was defenitley the 6 tab HTC home plugin!
Cheers
ie
fix don`t work.
little speed can be gained by turning of cleartype.
Bug can be seen, for example, at 1-st page of this treated.
Beginning is ok, after while when there were a lot of texts - slowdown appears.
for example - at wm5 scroling downward one page takes less then 1 second; in wm6 - 3-4 seconds, the more text - the more slowdown.
images/flash/frame not affect speed as the text do.

It's been an issue since helmi_C's wm5. not fixed until now.
Well, there is a fix for zooming. The problem is, it introduces another bug preview image is 90 degrees rotated It was taken from BA's camera with Hima driver.
The only bug i find is that i cant get intent midlet manager to run, When i install it and try open it nothing happens... it adds it to recently run programs but thats about all.. I dunno if this is because im doing soemthing wrong or because theres a problem with the midlet manager and WM6 ?

It appears the the sound is not routed to the correct audio block.
I can`t get into Internet from my Himalaya standing in cradle (im WM5 everything was fine). Is it my special problem or is it common bug?
Hello, i am using the WM6 ROM by Futureshock (V2) on my Mteor. With WM5 it was possible to add a ringtone by pressing enter several seconds on a mp3 or mide file. Then it was selectable from the ringtones list. Now, TCPMP is assosiated with media files and this procedure no longer works. How can i add a ringtone under WM6?
Many thanks.
Rene
Hi,
firstly i would say you should use the new wm6.1 ports...
and when you want to add an mp3 file to ringtone list just copy the mp3 to my documents...
you can also made a my documents folder structur on sd card too... i have it so... after every reflash i have all my ringtone and pictures back in system without to do anything more...
Many thanks. Sometimes it is more simple than expected.
I'd like to try the 6.1 ports, but i am using a screenreading software to access the phone, because i am blind. Afaik this software is not yet compatible with 6.1. So i'm afraid i have to wait for an update.
I still can't play midi files with the WM6 V2 ROM. Windows media comes up with an error "source filter could not be found". Is there a solution?
Thanks again.

just give 6.1 a try... its not so different from wm6 ...
wm6 port i think is discontinued because of wm6.1... theres no need todo on wm6 more...
also its booting up too slow... and bugfixin all this isn't worth effort...
the latest WM6.1 port works fine here, even with Mobilespeak (my ScreenReader). The only thing i have noticed so far is: The sounds for alerts, key clicks etc. are enabled but not working.
Thanks again.
Rene
they should be disabled by default...
try to disable and reenable it...
I've gone through multiple Roms, different versions of hyperdragon III, and different versions of PDAcorner. When I try to select a different keyboard, it loads for a second, then goes back to the default. The only keyboards that work are other defaults, such as Block Recognizer, Letter Recognizer, and Symbol Pad.
SOMETIMES PCM keyboard works, but NEVER has any of the diamond keyboards every worked.
I've even tried SIPchange, but the same thing happens. I assume the same has happened to you guys too? did you ever fix it?
thanks!
Is it just me?
How many of you use the Diamond Keyboard, or keyboard other than the default?
default IM
are you still having the same problem? did you ever try using the default im cab for wm5?
it worked for pcm, but i never tried it with the diamond keyboards.

The default cab is the ticket...it works when everything else fails. I don't even bother with the other stuff now. If the sip won't stick, I just install that cab and select it. A soft reset later and you are good to go.

you may need 2 soft reset twice before it cooperates. if you have your phone password protected, the default keyboard you selected will never show until AFTER you enter the password.
only RARELY do i get a glitch now, and a reset usually fixes the problem.

I am in the same boat as you and the only keyboard that I have gotten to work is resco keyboard.....I have same exact problems as you...did you ask SJ about it....
SJ's opal keyboard
im having problems attaching files, but SJ's keyboards can be found here.
apply the default im instructions and a couple of soft resets later, you should be good 2 go.
