I have posted This thread to assist anyone like me, who is not a programming whiz. Got to Install this mainly through trial and error and I am not an expert in this. So If anyone can make my steps easier please do!
This is a Variation Installation For a thread a while back in October 2005 Author Ncruz and effjay. Ncruz Posted a wm5 cab. This cab does not install directly due to permissions. However I have extracted the files using windows cab manager.
First are the files are required in windows. If it asks about permissions copy to PDA root folder then copy with Resco File Explorer and overwrite. Next are the registry files. You can import them with a registry program such as tre or regedit.
If you want Microsoft Voice commands to be the default program overwrite SSDialer.exe in windows folder with Voicecmd.exe from Program files/Voice command/ otherwise Cyberon Voice is initiated when you press headset.
I will post the cab in its entirity although it will not install, incase someone knows an easier method to get voice commands working Please contibute to this thread. However this method worked for me. Below in the zip are the files Extracted with Win Cab manager in zip format so you can copy zip to your pda then extract them to the correct folders, along with the registry files you need to import to registry.
N.B..sound of Voice commands is through PDA and not headset. Pressing headset connect button opens Cyberon or active voice command depending on what you have
Can not seem to be able to import the reg files....
OKay, got the files to import and the files copied - no go for me. Darn-it.
Installation
did you do a soft reset with the software built with the rom and repair the bluetooth headset
I might have reset without using the software reset....
However, got it working with this cab file that I found on my storage card. I even got MS Voice Command to work when I hit my BT Headset button.
Heck, it did not even change the record button to SSDialer! I would have thought it would but it did not. So, I am happy!
glad its working for you
now how can i do?
download odie3 's cab file and install? that's right?
Then, when device auto turn off, bt still go off as before?

The only way I know how to keep BT on is by plugging in my Device to a power source and doing a soft-reset. As long as I do not turn it off with the power button or have it set to auto-power off while plug in, BT will stay on. I do this everytime I get into my car - since it takes me a hour [sometimes more] to get home, so my BT Headset always works.
Hopefully I explained that correctly for you to understand....

Your query confirmed. The Wlan manager icon from the today screen goes as a side effect of installing the cab. Wifi still works but the Icon in today is not there. Not a big deal for me, as I have skinned my Pda with Wisbar, which has a wifi icon.

Thanks for the info
BT activation doesn't work for me...
For some reason the activation through BT headset doesn not work for me.
I'm using WM5 TuMa 1.3 ROM.
The BA_WM5_Voice_Dialer_2.cab doesn't install on my device (permission violation), so I copied the files manually to the Windows folder.
The reg files also don't import to my registry when double-clicking, so I made the changes manually.
It still doesn't work.
Now, when I hit the button of my BT headset (Moto HS-810), the standard dialer is activated (instead of the voice command app) and I hear hissing sounds in the headset.
I tried it both with Cyberon and MS apps. Both don't work.
Did anyone encounter this problem? Anyone solved it?
Thanks.
anyone knpow how to do this with voice command on 2003se?
Just upgraded to TuMa 1.3 and have found a MUCH more simple way of doing it.
1) Install Microsoft Voice Command
2) Download Total Commander (http://www.ghisler.com/ce.htm)
3) Using Total Commander change the read only tickbox for \windows\sddialer.exe so that there is no tick (1 press just greys it out, i needed to press twice) <- browse to \windows in TC and right cick (hold down) on sddialer.exe, and click properties.
4) (you don't need TC for this) Copy %install dir%\voicecmd.exe (where %install dir% is the directory you installed voice command to) to a temporary location and rename it to sddialer.exe.
5) (using TC) 'Right click' on your new sddialer.exe (previoult voicecmd.exe) and select 'cut to clipboard' then navigate to \windows\ and 'right click' and select 'paste from clipboard', when propted overwrite the origional file.
6) press the button on your headset and test it!
the only thing we need now is for some clever person to work out how to route the voicecmd audio through to the headset instead of the load speaker (to my knowledge it uses the microphone on the headset allready (at least it works when i speak quietly from the next room )
it works like a charm

Do what Midlet says?
If I do what Midlet says- will I still need the 2 files that mohdwadea has posted? Is Midlet's process a complete stand-alone process... or is if preceded by more steps?

Have not investigated midlets way of installing as Mine is working. However i suggest that if you check your registry and see if the reg keys i posted within the zip are there. If his way works fine, if it does not i suggest you import the keys into registry and see if that helps. I also strongly suggest you make a note of the keys and where they are imported too, as if it does not work you can remove them.
It worked
Mohdwadea,
Your method worked! This time I performed a soft-reset after the installation and also re-connected the headset. I did not have to go he registry-entry route because the cab-file installed on my device.
This will help me a lot on the road in business. God bless you.
Just glad its working for you!
voice not sending
MOHDWADEA,
I am using this fix a lot on the road. It works very well... expect for in one situation! I can initiate voice dialing by the record button on my device and it accepts voice dialing commands through the bluetooth headset and teh call goes fine.
However, if I initiate the voice dialing using the button on my blueooth headset (Cardo Scala 500), it initiates the voice dial app just fine, accepts commands and conencts the call.... but the other party cannot get my outgoing voice through my bluetooth headset, rather it gets the voice from the mic on my phone. Also, the incoming sound can be heard in my bletooth headset but ALSO on the phone.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

No attempts to claim credit for inventing this process (the PTT fix is in the Wiki, and the Cyberon bit has been around since the Wizard days), but this could be the first time it's been completely posted in one place.
Cheers!
-------------------
Step 1. Disable Cyberon
- Delete SDDaemon.lnk in \Windows\Startup
- Delete the Voice Dialer shortcut from \Windows\Start Menu\Programs (or whatever submenu folder it might be in)
[NOTE: if you don't delete the shortcut and accidentally click it (or launch the program directly from File Explorer), you may have to repeat the ENTIRE procedure]
- In each of these registry locations:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shell \ Extensions \ ContextMenus \ Contacts \ Main_ContextMenu
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shell \ Extensions \ ContextMenus \ Contacts \ Main_Tools
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shell \ Extensions \ ContextMenus \ Contacts \ Summary_Tools
----> Remove this key entirely: {2C0E9904-F32D-4f53-875F-479F5CA81E18}
- In this registry location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ ControlPanel
----> Remove this key entirely: VoiceTagCPL
Step 2. Disable PTT and Enable PTT Button
----> Remove this key entirely: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Services \ PTT
From HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ Software \ Microsoft \ Shell \ Keys
- Add a new key called "40C6"
- Add a string under the key called "Name" with the value "Button 6"
- Add a new key called "40C7"
- Add a string under this key called "Name" with the value "Button 6 (hold)"
Step 3. Install MSVC 1.6
- Be sure to use the latest build, which can be found at http://www.sendspace.com/file/f48smf
< File Name: MSVC_US_PPC 1.6.17913.CAB Size: 3MB >
NOTE: this is licensed software; you should only download this update if you already have a licensed copy of MSVC 1.6
Step 4. Remap MSVC to PTT button (optional)
Step 5. Pair your headset
You should now be able to initiate MSVC from your BT headset and receive prompts thru its speaker. Finally, I can leave my phone in the case when I want to!
Enjoy!
BT button VC1.6 Activation
I have a HTC branded TytnII and there is no PPT reg entry. Also the keys
From HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Shell\Keys
- Add a new key called "40C6"
- Add a string under the key called "Name" with the value "Button 6"
- Add a new key called "40C7"
- Add a string under this key called "Name" with the value "Button 6 (hold)"
already exist. So..
this didnt work for me. If i push the button on my BT headset it redials the last number.
Button 6 is the Voice command button near the wheel so i cant see how the BT headset button is going to work??
any help would be great as this is then only function missing from a great device.
cheers
Should have mentioned that this has been tested by me only on a Tilt with AT&T stock ROM...
You shouldn't have to worry about the PTT-related steps on a TyTN II (nothing there to disable).

So this seems to be a very straight forward process, easily followed by anyone that has any right to be mucking about in a registry. However, ()SDDaemon.lnk does not exist in \Window\Start Menu it does exist in \Windows\Startup
Also, Remove this key entirely... Where the hell is it?
All other steps work fine..

well sort off...
The PTT is now maped to VC, very cool works good.
However VC is still not working properly, I can issue commands, (dial, call, time, etc) but the system will not announce calls or appointments. I used the same CAB I have used on previous installs that worked fine before.
Any ideas anyone?

I use a plantronic BT head set. To use VC on the tilt I hold the main button down on the head set until I hear the VC chime in. Takes about 4-5 of holding it down until VC kicks in. I hear about 3 or beeps during that time.

@goestoeleven: did you not put in the registry change?
4. Lastly, you must modify this registry entry in order to use your Bluetooth headset with Voice Command:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand Path = "\Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCmd.exe
That's from your posting and I am pretty sure that is what really fixed my issue. I was using the older ver of MSVC with my wizard and it worked fine. So, unless there is something really different about the OS build on the Tilt, updating the MSVC may have improved on things but I still believe this reg key is what did it.
BTW: I loaded the updated MSVC before I tried the reg change and this ver of MSVC does NOT make that change for you!
I recommend you update post1 to include this step.
Great job on finding that key by the way! THANKS!!!!!!

This key is not necessary with MSVC 1.6 (it was with MSVC 1.5). I'm running just fine without it.
i still can not initiate voice command from my headset. everything else works fine. i hear announcements, i can answer and hang up phone calls (the voice quality is still horrible), i get reminders, etc. but when i press the button to activate, it just opens the phone app.
is there something missing?

Interesting, I tried a couple different copies of MSVC 1.6, including the CAB I used on my Wizard and didn't get announcements. It wasn't until I loaded the latest ver and put in the reg patch did it start working 100%. I admit I didn't test between the latest ver and the reg change (yeah I know I should have) so I can't say for sure which one did it.

That's very odd, normally the part that fails (for me at least) is the announcements or ring tone to the BT.
Can you initiate calls from the MSVC mapped key on the phone? That will narrow down if the prob is with the BT, MSVC or the phone itself.
Russ741
yes...i push PTT and VC functions just fine. i'll try that final reg change again and i'll soft reset and see what happens.
EDIT: i still can't initiate calls from the headset, however, this change does seem to have solved the low volume problem for me. just got a call, i heard the caller loud and clear and they heard me no problem.
so one problem down, one to go.
M$ VC still not working properly
I followed step in posting 1 to the letter and everything worked perfectly including caller ID voice announcement over bluetooth. But,when I soft reset or turn my phone off, I do not get voice announcement over bluetooth anymore. HELP!
Thanks! I like this concept ... I'll try it on my AT&T Tilt Rom.
Inconsistent results on various BT devices
Works great on my Jabra BT500.
On my Parrot CK3100 I get the "button only works once" behavior described in another thread - everything is great the first time I initiate VC from the car kit, but after that the phone's speaker and microphone are the only things active.
Next time the phone and car kit connect I get one more button push that works.
Argh. I'll search that other thread again, but I don't recall a fix for the folks that had these probs w/their headsets. (Any pointers are of course welcomed!)
Richard
Thanks a lot. This worked perfect for me. I am using an AT&T Tilt with helmi_c's Kaiser AKU.0.7.0 Cooked ROM and a Plantronics Discovery 655 headset.
VC with wired headset
I have a wired headset (HTC brand) and installed Voice Command, but cant get it to work from the headset button...does anyone know how I can activate from the button on headset?
i guess its safe to say you went into MSVC SETTINGS AND CHANGED the settings to wired headset? there has never been an issue with wired headsets just BT
Hello
Since some of you guys asked about this , well there you go:
if you look inside the keyboard driver with a good disassembler (IDA Pro) you would see that you can create these link files :
Long_PTT.lnk (push to talk button+long press)
Long_End.lnk (the read key+long press)
Long_Send.lnk (the green key+long press)
Short_PTT.lnk (push to talk button)
Long_Power.lnk (Power button +long press)
Short_Power.lnk (Power button)
So basically all you need is to create these link files and put them in to windows folder. You can assign these keys to any shortcut you want
I attached one of my favorite short cuts unzip the file then put it in to your windows folder. then press Send Key for about 2 to 3 second to run the shortcut. It will bring up the wifi networks.
Have fun.

This is just great! Hats off! Now Endkey makes some sense to me...
This has to be the best trick found since I got my Tilt. THANK YOU!!!
Mine is setup as follows:
Long Send - Comm Manager
Long End - Invoke S2U2
Short PTT - PocketPlus4 Alt+Tab Switcher
Long PTT - Voice Command
I did the PTT button mappings with PP4's button enhancement instead of the lnk files mentioned above. But the other 2, which until now, have not been useable for long presses, so THANK YOU again.
While poking around in the keyboard driver, did you see a way to assign a shortcut to sliding the keyboard out? I think a HTC Action-type app for the Kaiser is not a bad idea.
Surur
ok, I feel really dense, how do you assign the keys? I don't see them listed under buttons after copying the lnk file to my \windows directory. Can this only be done when cooking a ROM? What am I missing? (I did a soft reset after the copy)

they won't show up there. Just try the button after you copy the lnk file to windows directory.
What I did was find the shortcuts that I want to use for the send and end button. Copy those shortcuts and rename them to the above names. Then move the shortcut into windows directory. it worked right away, no reboot needed.
Ah got it! Thanks!
OMG this is so awsome! Thank you!!
I already have the PTT button reprogrammed using the registry hack listed elsewhere. I think I will leave those as is and use this method after the next hard reset.
Dam this is realy good findings you just keep amazing me hma4 now I have to but the endkey back into my rom
Great Catch!

It's very simple ! just find a short cut from your windows folder , say AudioManager.lnk for example .. then copy it to your PC .. open a notepad , drag and drop the file to notepad , then edit the address inside the file and save it (pick one of those names i mentioned on the first post) then copy it to your windows folder and you are done !
Are there any long press hacks for the other 4 hard keys (<OK>, <Start>, etc)?

I have created small script that you can use to assigned and remove buttons using Mortscript. In order for it to work please download mortscript 4.1.0 from this website >> install it >> download attached zip and unzip in any folder of your choice and then doubleclick on that file in your device. Currntly it only work for lnk files but i will add exe file later on.

those have to be done thru registry or by use of an app like Pocket Plus 4. I know there are probably some free ones out there, but PP4 is what I use.

Any chance a Long_End.lnk can be devised that opens Wireless Manager?
Good morning. I've read many threads on PTT but things changed in 6.1 and would like to know the following. I’m new to this. I’ve been waiting for the PTT config that is in 6.1 but it allows you to change PTT to everything except what I want. I would like to have the PTT turn on wifi with one push and turn it off with push and hold.
I know there are reg edits for 6.0 but now in 6.1 button six shows up in (buttons and assign program). Is there a list of available programs to assign buttons to in the registry? If so would it now be easier to replace a link in the registry for one of the programs I wouldn't use with the link to turn on wifi found in wireless manager?
I’ve loaded PHM and was wondering if any of the registry editors work from the pc with the phone attached? Can you export the phone’s registry to a file, work on it on your pc and then import or restore it back to the phone. My eyes are getting sore.
Thanks
Frank
Try a pm to hang.tuah, http://forum.xda-developers.com/member.php?u=273310. He has it in his ROMeOS ROM. He is also very helpful and kind.
thank you for the link
I sent him my issue and await a response.
This may help
I found a way to get closer to using the PTT button to activate wifi. In 6.1 you’re given the option to assign programs to button 6, the PTT button. Unfortunately Comm. Manager and turn on wifi aren’t options that you can choose.
By messing around I discovered that you can use file explorer and scroll down in Windows until you see the comm. Manager icon. Copy this and go back up to file start menu. Paste Comm. Manager into the start menu. Comm Manager will now show up on the today screen. You can then go to settings, buttons and Comm Manager will now be an available option. You can now also use voice command (start Comm. Manager) While it doesn’t turn on wifi it does allow you to hit the old PTT button and then hit the wheel or ok, or use the voice command.
Hey,
after 2 months I am really almost perfectly happy with my Diamond after numerous tweaking but only one thing which continues to bother me:
When I am listening to Music, the lack of easy control using hardware buttons. In particular, I would like to be able to use the button on the Stereo Original Headset to assign to go to the next track in MPlayer.
I already was able to assign any .exe program to the button if pressed long (basically making the phone belief that I am using VoiceCommander and editing the Registry Key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path"
However, there is obviously no .exe File that skips to the next track so I have been looking for a method which simulated a keypress of "NEXT", and tried VJKEYPRESS. However, the regoistry key accepts only a exe file and does not work with having some argument of the file! So basically, I would need an .exe-File which does the same as VJKeypress ### and in this case this button could be literally mapped to whatever one wants, and save you grabbing your diamond off your coat just for skipping a song.
Any suggestions how to get this problem solved?
(In particular since the Headset button cannot be reassigned using PHM Keys, PQzII or AEButton Plus)
Cheers,
Johannes
Compile exe files for the Diamond (maybe from a .lnk or a keypress?)
After trying out Pocket Player and the newly announced feature of their button plugin, still it does not recognize the Headset button. So back to zero.
Basically, there is no use for this button other than answering a call or starting (when pressed long) an exe file. (Both .lnk Files and .exe fiels with command line parameters are not recognized!!)
So anyone an idea how to compile exe files for the WM of the diamond to run .e.g a .lnk file or simulate a keypress or is it rather difficult?
