Has anyone figured out a solution to the problem when S2U2 is active that pressing the button on the bluetooth headset does not activate the voice dial feature? I have version .99 install and it was a known issue back then. I have not seen that any of the newer versions have a fix for this, and a search did not yield any answers...
BTW bluetooth voice dial works fine with the HTC lock/unlock program and that is my workaround when using my headset, but I would much prefer using S2U2 all the time.

Hi all,
Great forum, great phone. I've read through the various threads regarding not being able to initiate a voice dial using bluetooth, however, my phone worked fine out of the box. I could push the button on my bluetooth headset and call using voicedial.
BUT, that wasn't enough, I decided to install Microsoft Voice Commander (prior to reading these threads). The voice dial (via bluetooth died instantly).
I have since uninstalled MVC but still cannot use the voice dial without first pushing the button on the phone.
Anyone got any suggestions to remedy this problem.
Thank you all for you time
un-pair the bluetooth and then pair again, then soft reset, see if that works
thanks, good point, I haven't tried that...yet
I've had the same problem. I've tried re-pairing and soft resets but to no avail. Is there a registry setting affected? I can use the voice button on the phone to activate the built-in cyberon voice dialler but the bluetooth headset won't.
Found the solution
Need to edit registry: HKLM/Software/OEM/VoiceCommand
And if not present, add string value called "Path" = "\Windows\SDDialer.exe"
Works again now! Phew!
Hi all
I've searched the forum and couldn't find a solution to this.
I need to be able to activate voice dialing through the bluetoth headset call button so that i can call someone while i'm driving without having to look at my x1.
in my old tytn, i installed voice commander 1.2 and assigned it to the left side memo button. when i pressed the Bluetooth headset button once, it would open the voice commander and route the mic through the headset, so i was able to say the name into the heasdset.
but in my x1, a single click on my BT headset doesn't do anything and a long press only redials the last number.
i couldn't find any simple way to...
1-click on the headset button
2-voice commander activates and routes the mic to the headset
3-the voice commander takes my command and dials the number.
the closest i came to is to assign voice commander to a hw key on x1 not the headset buttn and when i press it, i must say the commande in the x1 mic not the headset.
so. to cut it short....any body was able to dial using the bluetooth headset?
I use Voice Command, that allows voice dialling through my Jawbone Headset.

MSVC does by replacing the the dll with it's own.
My rom also does by replacing dll from HD.
Me too, I use MS Voice Command with SonyEricsson HBH sets and all work by pressing the button on headset which brings up the mic from voice command to command-the-phone

MS Voice Command 1.6 here. It works about 75% of the time. Sometimes it doesn't work. No idea why.
Of course, I also have no idea why the Bluetooth disconnects randomly, for no apparent reason.
The same Parrot CK3100 works 100% of the time with a Nokia E71-2, and it works 100% of the time with an old Motorola Q9h.
No idea what the freak is wrong w/the Xperia.
Both the Voice Command issue (25% failure) and the Bluetooth disconnection happens with both the X1a and the X1i that I just sold.
Yes of course, if the bluetooth doesn't work then the bluetooth voice command cannot work. There was this bluetooth disconnect issue with the fw R1A but should be better with the fw update to R2A.
Did you update your phone yet?
As long as my headset is connected, voice command works 99.9%.
did you just install MS voice commander and it worked straight away? or did you change any settings or do any button assignments?

I'm on the UK R2A that was dated 20 Feb 2009. Bluetooth is still buggy.
There still seems to be some occasion that the phone goes into some kind of standby mode that causes Bluetooth not to be instantly available, and no doubt this affects the performance of Voice Command.
But, having said that: There are still times that you know the phone's not in standby, and Bluetooth + Voice Command is still buggy. Sometimes the phone responds with the Xperia speaker, and sometimes the phone responds w/the car speakers, and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.

I did not have to do anything special to get it to work the way that I wanted, except to assign the right silver button to Voice Command.
Can anyone tell how to make voice command or voice2go work with bluetooth headset?
Can you use all the available commands of MSVC?
Hi all, I have also installed the MSVC on my Xperia and the voice dial feature works fine, but I have tried to use other voice commands (just say "help" for a list of available commands) like "What time is it?" and it doesn't work.
Has anyone else tried it?
Update: I figured it out: you have to enable the "Status" option in MSVC settings!
MS VC R3AA013 & Jawbone Prime
Hi All
Had MSVC 1.6 on my x1 (R2a), all working fine, just been given a Jawbone Prime (thought result), BT linked up no worries. Tried to use MSVC over BT & not a thing. Can make a call manually n Jawbone picks it up, can use VC on my phone n Jawbone will pick it up, but picking up my phone with a BT sort of defeats the object of the exercise. Have looked all over XDA, and get a mixed impression, does a BT headset work with an X1 & MSVC?
Tried a couple of registry tweaks & nothin & I've now updated to R3 to see if that makes a difference but no joy.
Have I missed something here? Or am I just special?
I missed something!
I was using the wrong button, gotta use the assassin button & not the talk button. D'oh.
Having same issue as original post. WM6.5 w/ voice command loaded. Can't get bluetooth headset to initate voice command prompt. I have had to attach it to one of the buttons on the phone - but not ideal b/c of the incoming handsfree laws here.
Any suggestions?
Ok so I'm having a similar problem here. I have the X1a with WM 6.1 and MS Voice command 1.6 and my bluetooth is a Nokia BH-212. My blue tooth has a volume rocker and one master button for all functions. My issue is that yes I can answer with my bluetooth by pressing once, I can hang up the same way. If I press twice quickly it redials the last number. However when I hold the function button for the right amount of time (you get a long tone) it is supposed to activate the voice command prompt but instead i simply get the dialer on my screen. No prompt, nothing.
I have looked into the phone as much as I can to try and find something with no luck. I am a newbie so please be gentle. I just want that feature to work and my phone will do almost everything I want it to. Thanks all
Hey I've just got a new pair of sony bluetooth headphones for my phone which I'm loving and they're working great.
They have a button on them that when I press it brings up some king of bluetooth voice dialing thing.
I'm wondering if there is a way I can change that to default to google voice search so i can use it for all sorts of commands rather than just voice dialling. Anybody know if its possible?
Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions or recommendations for a problem I have with my GN2,
The problem is that I use a pattern lockscreen with my GN2 and when I use my Motorola 730 bluetooth headset to make outgoing calls, it won't work when the screen is locked. It looks like this is because the phone activates the phone's voice dialer, sVoice, which won't launch when the screen is locked. Is there a workaround for this, or a similar bluetooth headset that will work with a locked screen? I would like to both make and receive calls when driving, without having to put in the diabolical pattern I use to unlock the screen.
Thanks in advance,

I have the same problem with my Galaxy S2 and now this phone when a lockscreen pattern is used.
I have the same problem. Except I'm using a Jawbone Icon and face unlock. From what I can tell it might be because it's trying to open S Voice instead of the normal Google Apps or it's Touch Wiz. Either way When I'm on the road, which is all the time it is super annoying to have to unlock my phone before using the hands free...

I think I found the solution but I have to test it with my note 2. Download automateit pro from play store and toggle it so that Bluetooth connected will bypass lockscreen and bluetooth disconnected will engage lockscreen. For $1.60 it is worth a try. For some reason it still won't work on my GS 2. From a lockscreen, as soon as I connect the bluetooth, the pattern screenlock is disable and I can operate the phone BUT I still can't activate voice dialing either from the headset or long press search. The voice control app still think the phone is lock. It maybe because I am on custom ROM on my GS 2.

OK I think I found the solution to this locked screen and making outgoing call with bluetooth using S Voice.
When you use a lock screen of some sort besides the swipe, you get this problem. You are fishing, the phone is in the waterproof case, or in your pant pocket, you activate S Voice using your bluetooth and S voice will not come up since the phone is locked and you can't make voice dialing until you unlock the screen.
Solution:
Tap the green phone app, select call settings, Accessory settings for call, look under BT headset settings for outgoing calls, enable Make calls even when device locked.
Now using my LG stereo bluetooth headset, I still can't directly access the S voice when the screen is locked. But, I can long press the call button(on my BT headset) and then it will dial the last number called. Then I quickly hang up, lightly press the call button(on my BT headset), and then S voice will be enable and I can say "Call David Mobile or play music, etc).
Hi, is it possible to make a voice call with the jb rom 4.1.2?
I've tried a lot of software but i'm not able to recall a program by pressing the headset (Bluetooth) button.
When i'm pressing it nothing is happening
thanks

Hi, anyone has this problem?
I need to use the phone by a bluetooh headset to make a call.
Is it a way to make a voice call pressing the Bluetooth button to start a program as cyberon voice commander?
thank you
The same for me

Hi ekosbravo: I have the same problem. I have an HBF-320 bluetooth handsfree from LG and the button doesn't Works from making a call. Only works for answer a call or, with a long press, for redialing the last number called. The same handsfree device Works fine with Motorola RAZR pone. With the Motorola, one touch to the button launches Google Now or Motorola's voice command. This function doesn't Works with my LG...
Same Problem
Hi!
I have the same problem! I have a BT headset that I had been using with my Motorola Pro with Android 2.3.6 and now I cannot launch any voice command app with it in my LG Optimus 4x with JB.
Did anybody solved this?
Thanks!
I have the Sony Ericsson MW600 bluetooth headset and it does flawlessly what you require. Therefore there is nothing wrong with the phones or the ROMs..
