Been trying to solve this problem for a while, noone seems to have the answer.
i have recently installed MS voice commander (wonderfull software btw), but i find it useless since i cant use it when i most need it and that's when the phone is in the pocket and i have handsfree plugged in (the cable).
the button can do only 3 things by default. pick/hang up calls and redial last number.
is there any way to map a program to it? so when i either press and hold or better yet, press it once i get voice commander running?
I use Bluetooth and I hold the button down and MS command comes up.
What brand of headset are you using?
i use the standard hands-free that comes with the phone. I've tried a number of solutions for Bluetooth devices but none of them worked.
this headset connects through the usb port at the bottom of the device. cant find any way to even detect that button from inside the device.
what you have on your BT looks like exactly what i'm after. with voice commander it's possible to use most functions of the phone without touching it, but it's pointless if you need to get it out to start VC in the first place.
I may not be of any help here as I have not used Voice Commander but..
If you go to 'Settings' 'Voice Speed Dial' you will see a tab at the bottom for Application.
I just use this as it responds to a single press from any headset.
Soz if I'm intruding.
not quite what i need. i want to call voice commander directly with the button.
it would've been easier if i could already run voicedialer or any other program from the headset. but nothing works.
Hello I wanted to know if there was a way I can remap the option to transfer my call to one of the buttons on the kaiser. I always have to do it manually during my phone call by clicking menu then "turn hands free on" on my phone while driving or by pushing a button on my car then speaking "transfer." I don't have a navigation screen on my 05 acura tl, so i don't have that easy push button on my car to transfer my call between my phone and car like the new Lexus's. I just want to be able to push ONE button on my Kaiser to transfer the calls between my phone and by car without having to do all these steps while driving. Thanks in advance!
i got you.... PhoneAlarm has a setting on it for profiles, one of the profiles being "Car"
set "Car" to enable Bluetooth AND activate headset - it can be done because that's what i do in my 04 Acura RSX (Honda Power! haha)
good luck and enjoy the one touch setting!
Hi
I just wounder if there is a way to make a quick connction to a pre-defined unit via bluetooth?
When in my car I connect the phone to the bluetooth car headset and going through so many menus isn't very optimized =)
So a quick connection icon in the programs tab or something would be very usefull.

ae button plus, then assign a long volume button press.
look for fabliv action screen and don't forget to add the fix file that'll take care not only to make yr BT on but also discoverable. many BT on/off progs bring you back the BT but are not making yr device discoverable.
so, you'll get not onlt BT on/off but also wifi and a one push button for e-mail, sms, mms, notes, task, etc..superb graphic and is even taking care of replaicing the left soft button.
sorry for the little info, if i'll find the file/link i'll let you know. meanwhile try search.
found it here
don't forget the fix for discoverable (first post)
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
I am unable to use any of my wired headsets with the Nexus 6. The middle button launches Google Now during a call. On the Nexus 5, the same headsets toggled Mute with that button. I have tried apps to reprogram the button (like Headset Button Controller) but they can not override the Google Now function.
Is anyone else seeing this? Any ideas?
Same problem here! Can't find a way to reassign the button to media control or something else. It always starts Google Voice Search.
If pressed when phone is locked I get a message telling me I have to unlock the phone to use Google Voice Search!
Headset Button ControllerTrial did not work!

Does turning of Bluetooth headset in Settings, Search & Now, Voice do anything to correct this problem?
