I installed open touch 2.4 and LOVE IT.. it makes windows mobile so much useful..
one thing i found problamatic was the bluetooth profile. The problem is when I press the call button on my bluetooth headset it doesn't trigger the voice speed dial. It just launches the dialler which shows the keypad.
That kind of defeats the purpose of 'hands free' if I need to press the voice speed dial on the phone and then use the headset.
Any solution ? Or any other package I can install to get the full functionality of voice speed dial with bluetooth.
I have the same problem, and it effects the ability for me to use MS Voice Command. I wish someone would help, but I made a post about this and got no replies.

guys,
I'm working on v2.5 and will try to resolve this issue if possible.
I need more details as to what is happening.
Also,
I did not see any of this nature posted in the original v2.2 post.
Who else is having this issue?

Just to cover all basis, did you setup the button 5 options?
Remember that I left the 5th button free for people to choose either voice record or voice speed dial.
Going forward, please do not create new post, instead post your issues in the original thread.
Thanks,
I'm pretty sure that what your dealing with is a registry problem. When i switched to touchit 2.3 i had to reconfig to the following:
1 Use registry editor to edit the following entries on your Wing:
Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A udioGateway\, Modify Value data: OEMAGEX.dll to BTAGExtModule.dll
Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\, Add DWord Value: LaunchAPEnable, Value Data: 1
Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\, Add DWord Value: VoiceCmdEnable",Value Data: 0
2. Wait about 30 sec, then soft-reset
Try it and let me know how it goes. I dont get credit for this it is from a previous post. This did work for me tho. I can prompt the voice speed dial from the bluetooth.

Thanks ttran for responding. I have great respect for you for putting together this great ROM.
The issue is..
I am pairing my bluetooth headset (motorola h850) with the phone. After paring, if I press the call button on my bluetooth, it is supposed to invoke the voice dial app in the phone and call the voice tag I spoke. However it just brings the phone dialler screen and does nothing.
My diagnosis
For an incoming call (when paired), I can pickup the call using bluetooth headphone's button. So I know bluetooth instrument is working.
Secondly when I directly invoke voice speed dial from phone (i mapped a hardware button to voice speed dial) it works fine too.
Only problem is I can not invoke voice speed dial from bluetooth headset.
Do not confuse this issue with the hardware button mapping since I am trying to invoke voice speed dial from bluetooth headset (not from hardware button on phone. that works fine)
Please let me know if you need any futher information. I will happy to provide any additional details.
BTW thanks again for putting together such a great ROM.
Hi,
Thanks for clearing that up.
Please try what mrmikemcguire posted:
1 Use registry editor to edit the following entries on your Wing:

Under: \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\, Add DWord Value: VoiceCmdEnable",Value Data: 0
2. Wait about 30 sec, then soft-reset
And let us know if it works for you, I don't use blue tooth so I can not test it for you.
Also,
Let me know if it fixes your issue so that I can add it to the next release.
Thanks folks,
sorry didn't work for me..
Ok.... First, thank you mrmikemiguire . Now hoolahoous .. did we make progress? The Audio gateway should be opening now... Verify that the registry modifications are correct in your device, then power cycle..... there may be another piece to the puzzle but those changes should work.
Edit: Final piece... Verify HKLM,"SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand "Path" = \Windows\SDDialer.exe
Okay.. thanks for everyone's help.. I finally got it to work... One thing incorrect in above settings was
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\A udioGateway\, Modify Value data: OEMAGEX.dll to BTAGExtModule.dll
the default entry was VCBTHAG.DLL not OEMAGEX.dll , I missed that..
however when I changed VCBTHAG.DLL to BTAGExtModule.dll , it started working..
ttran001, maybe you can include these entries in 2.5.
I know you are not planning to include voice speed dial or voice command in 2.5, I personally feel that you should include atleast one of them. My vote would be voice speed dial since it works for everyone but voice command works only for subset of people. When I say work, I mean software being able to recognize what a person is saying.
but thanks to everyone including mrmikemcguire to get it to work for me.

That reg fix has been added to v2.5 and yes Voice speed dial is included but not voice command since it takes about 4mb of space.

Either way thanks for providing feed back so to help resolve this issue.
I am using 2.5 slim and cannot get audio from realplayer, skype, etc.
I push the button and all I get is some wrong application, try again later errors....
Please help.
It all worked perfectly with the Clean ROM so may be someone with know-how can look at the registry differences between them and tell me if this is fixable, or i have to install the clean again...
Thank You!

And is anybody else having this issue?
Yes, BT.

I know this has been beat to death in the Hermes forum but I have found a bit of difference with my Kaiser as compared to my Hermes.
I have quite a bit of experience with the TyTN hermes tweaks to get Microsoft Voice Command to work with the Hermes but not only will the Kaiser NOT work without the tweaks - I can't get it to work with the tweaks.
I followed the exact instructions like I always have listed in the Hermes Wiki section titled Utilities and Software Tweaks (including Bluetooth Voice Command installation and the Registry changes). However after the changes I cannot initiate a Bluetooth instruction via the Bluetooth device. If I initiate the call via the handheld it works great as far as stability and sound quality.
Any suggestions?
You don't have to do any tweaks on Kaiser! Just install VC 1.6. Assign Button 6 to Voice command. Soft reset. It should work. Works for me at least. The only think that doesn't work is a caller name announcement.

Ditto,
My Kaiser does announce incoming callers on the internal speaker when the setting is on "use bluetooth if available". I only use bluetooth with my car so I do not know what the behavior with a headset would be.
Does it work so that you can push the button on your Bluetooth headset or Bluetooth car adapter and then give the Voice Command through the headset? Mine didn't work. That's why I did the tweaks.
Also can someone tell me that with just the Voice Command installed what does the following registry key have (or does it even exist)?:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path = ????
AND
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTAGExtModule = ???
Also if you go to settings and click on Voice Command - what version Voice Command do you have? I have v1.6.4622.0
Thanks

Hmm... Looks like I have build 1.60.4630.0
Hi, I have build v1.60.4622.0 and I noticed a fundamental difference when installing to my kaiser than when installing to my Uni; no registry entries get added to:
HKLM\Software\OEM\VoiceCommand
So this means that no bluetooth interaction would work. Therefore I added:
Dword entry: LaunchAPEnable (value 0)
and
String entry: Path (value \Program Files\Voice Command\voicecmd.exe
Rebooted and now voice command is initiated fine via bluetooth headset. Haven't tested notifications yet - I think there might still be a missing reg entry but I can't remember what it is!
Hope this helps someone....
Thanks. I'll try those registry changes. I hard reset last night to make sure that I got rid of all of the "tweaks" that had been done - the way I did for the Hermes.
I wonder where the other guy got version 30 instead of our version 22
I got mine from Handango - the Microsoft site doesn't have any updates except for version 1.5

No problem. v1.6.4622.0
I should have caught up on the thread first. Just to be claer, I do not hear the callers name through my car. I do hear it only on the Kaiser's speaker.
I'd love to get the announcements working over BT. It was sporadic on my TyTN with the registry hacks.

This needs to go into the Kaiser WIKI !!!
These registry changes are needed inorder to be able to initiate phone calls from your bluetooth device using Microsoft Voice Command. These registry changes worked GREAT and the initiation of calls from bluetooth work much better than with the Hermes and it's tweaks.
Of note, using Resco Registry editor, I had to put quotes aroung the Path entry to get it to work so my registry edit looked like this:
Path Value= "\Program Files\Voice Command\voicecmd.exe"
If anyone knows how to get attention to have this put in the Wiki please feel free.
Odd, I did not have to edit/add any registry settings and I can initiate calls/commands from my BlueAnt Z9 headset.

Has anyone installed MS Voice Command on their Tytn II yet? I'd really like to be able to initiate calls from the BT headset when in the car...
Just curious since I know the new version supposedly supports commands directly from the headset. If no one else has.. maybe I'll buy it and give it a shot.

Works like a charm. Will post the link to get VC 1.6 to announce calls.
can you post the link please to get it to announce calls.
Its been great having VC 1.6 running with no hacks needed. It would be the icing on the cake to have it announce calls finally.
Can I just install it and it works? As in I can initiate calls with the BT Headset button? I hate having to fiddle with the phone.
If I can't do this, it's not worth $39 imho.

OK... So I added the suggested key to the registry - but Istill can't start Voice Command with the button on the headset... (Jabra x10 series II)
Any thoughts? I am assuming the regsitry key is a String Value:
Name = "Path"
and then the value being the path itself... is this correct??

Are these steps working for other Kaiser users? VC 1.6 works fine after install for activation via an assigned button on the phone. No matter what tweaks I make in the registry or files I replace though, activation through the headset is just opening up the HTC phone applet.
Dear all,
In the Wizard I had a dialler which selected the contact from the last dialled list first. I could highlight that contact and select the persons mobile number, home number, etc. by using the right and left navigation buttons.
Does anyone know whether this dial-pad exists for the Kaiser?
Regards,
Nika.
I use the default WM6 dialer, which does this (and imo looks better than HTC's).
To do this you must set HKLM/Security/Phone/Skin/Enabled to 0 (i hope i got the right reg key, if not, let me know) and soft-reset
WARNING: you will not be able to dial / answer voice calls with this dialer (i don't care about this)

Yeah, that's the dialler I meant! And now with the big buttons it would be perfect... Attached is what I used on the Wizard, but on the Kaiser it messes up the buttons. Anyone who knows how to convert/create a dialler for the Kaiser?
Btw, here's the post for the Wizard I got this dialler from:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=297530
hmmm, did you try to get to the default dialer and AFTER THAT installing yours ?
Yes, the default dialler works fine. And then, after installing the wm6 grey dialler it doesn't work anymore...too bad, I would have like to have a big-button dialler with the WM6 smart-dialling features...
i don't think you can have the default smartdialing AND a theme. i think you can have some other smart dialing with a theme, but not the default one
Well... on the wizard it did work - see the post about the big button skin with smart-dialling:

Hi, Folks,
I'm searching for a software to read the incoming SMS like the Blue&Me® by Fiat/Microsoft do.
I've found this app (TellMeText 1.1.0), but it has only one language (US English), and the language file is compiled with the executable app.
Anyone knows a app to do this function and a way to use the Gabriela Voice (Pt-BR) from iGo or something like this?
Thanks in advanced
If you have Microsoft Voice Command (MSVC) on your phone, you can set it to read incomming text messages, voice announce who is calling, and more Just be sure you really want it to do that before you turn it on.. It can be embarassing when someone TXT's you something questionable when you are in line at the bank or something... There is a feature where it will onyl read it when you have a bluetooth headset connection.. that is what I personally do...
I agree with Teej. I used the free/busy toggle cab to work around this. If I am not at work or somewhere I wouldn't want certain messages read aloud, I leave it free. If at work, I set it to busy. MSVC worked very well for me.
yes, MSVC is good, but reads the msg soooooo fast that you can berly understand what is happening. and the MSVC voice is sooo ennoying.anyway to fix it?

I haven't used it in a while since I am flashing roms constantly, but I know there is a registry hack where you can slow it down. Just Google it or search here. You can also edit voice recognition so that it is easier for it to pick up what you are say. Its a nice program, just very picky about installation and stuff so people don't like to always deal with it.
i just searched it, didnt find anything. prob didnt type the right info in search.
Is it any trouble if you can guide me ot the right path( regarding slowing the voice and voice recognition)
Appreciate it tilt4life2
this in an idea I like the sound of. Have you looked at the complete MSVC guide on this forum? It may hold a referance to the slowing down of the voices. Im guessing searching MSVC guide should find it or it may be linked in the Kaiser Wiki. Good Luck!
There is also TellMeText by Blondiesoft here and it's totally freeware:
http://www.blondiesoft.com/software/mobile/TellMeText/
It even announces the message before your notification goes off with its regular message tone.

Yes! the Kaiser Tweaks cab has the voice command settings in it. It's generically set to 4. Higher settings speeds the chick up, and lower settings slows her down.
Hope this helps.

To change the voice's speed:
Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Speech\Voices"
Change the value of "DefaultTTSRate" from between 1 (slowest) and 10 (fastest). Default is 4. Experiment to discover what is right for you.

@RatRedux, thanks for your response! I just can't assign it to a button, also, I've the American version, and it can't really understand my British accent in most commands...how did you assign a button?
managed to remap the registry key as follows:
# Goto HKLM\Software\ Microsoft\Shell\Keys
* - Click Open Key named "40C6"
* - Change the 'Default' string name to "\Windows\Voice Command.lnk"
* - Now change the 'ResetCmd' string name to "\Windows\Voice Command.lnk"
Now close Registry, and go back to device and click the button on the top left side which is indicated by the 'Speak' Icon, and it should now work for you!

@RatRedux, thanks for your response! I just can't assign it to a button, also, I've the American version, and it can't really understand my British accent in most commands...how did you assign a button?

I only ever used voice commands with my bluetooth headset so I never bothered to set a button on the phone. It works most of the time but it doesn't help that my wife and neice and daughter and sister in law have similar sounding names so it occasionally wants to dial the wrong relative lol! I turned off the announce incoming calls since my Blueant T1 has it's own built in voice caller ID. Though I must admit the lady who lives inside my phone sounds a bit nicer than the lady inside the bluetooth!
We haven't figured out how to set up Google voice in my wife's Android phone so I must give my old "brick" (as my wife calls it) a nod since it worked right away even on my old junk headset.
