Can anyone recomend an offline (I mean without connecting to Google Voice) application for voice dialing. I believe starting from Android 2.2 it is supported.
I've just installed NAND HDFI rom by gauner1986 if it is relevant.
I am looking for an application where I just press button on my bluetooth headset and say the contact name to dial. If the app can read aloud new SMSs and emails it's even better .
I actually found an application Choice Dialer Plus which does the dial via bluetooth with one problem though. I cannot launch the app with my bluetooth handset button. I have to touch the phone to launch the app and then will give command to dial.
I know my handset works alright as I just upgraded from WM6.5 where I had Microsoft voice commander.
It looks I am missing something in the android.
Do I need another application which can listen to the handset or I need something else installed to the android?

You can try my app. It works offline. Application is named VoiceButton. You can find it in GooglePlay.
I think this is what you need.

Thank you, Denis.
My question was from 2011, LOL.
I don't have the HD2 anymore but thank you anyway.

Does anybody know of a voice dialer software out there better than the one Google put out? If not, can someone PLEASE develop one? These things are supposed to be used in conjunction with a bluetooth headset and are supposed to avoid user input because of traffic laws yet the one Google put out prompts the user every time!
Isn't the bluetooth function coming in donut?
What do you mean "the bluetooth function"? Cupcake has full bluetooth capability and the voice dialer technically works with the voice dialer, just not even remotely well enough.
In reference to what your asking. Using your bluetooth to start voice dialing.
That's available right now. I can press the button on my headset to activate voice dialing. It works about 80% of the time. The problem is with the voice dialer application itself. Simply put: it sucks balls.
Does anyone know if the Quick Search Box's voice dialing feature is replacing the actual voice dialer? The teaser video for 1.6 shows it working well (ie figuring out WHO you want to call and doing it automatically without user input) but I also noted a voice dialer icon in the video and technically they pressed a button on the Quick Search Box to activate it. I'm wondering if that can be activated with a BT headset.

I hope so - i've been waiting (im)patiently for voice dial in the UK for a loooooong time
I love the way you have to put on an American accent to get the google voice dialer to work
Call home
English English - "Cawl hoeme" = random results
US english - "kahl hom" = call home
Rubbish
I had to rename the girlf in my phone to "love of my life" which works well. "K" offered me to call "Ed"... So its not great really. Voice search in google seems accurate though.
Direct dial shortcuts ftw. They actually require one less click than trying to voice dial.
BT headset voice dialling would be great though.
Real voice dialing for Android please! It's ridiculous how a 3 year old Windows Mobile device can have 100X better voice dialing...
Hi there,
anyone tested "Talkonaut" yet?
It's a VOIP Client which allows you to call your googletalk contacts via voip.
Besides that, you can integrate your existing sip accounts and make voip calls just like in sipdroid.
Just discovered it in the market and made a few tests.
I called a friend over googletalk and he can hear me clearly but unfortunately I can't hear him.
I don't know if it's the program or a wrong setting. I'm able to call the same friend with the windows gtalk client without any problems.
Then, I tried to connect to my gizmo5 account, it kinda works sometimes but very choppy. Sipdroid is better suited for this purpose.
It still seems to be in development, perhaps it gets better in the future
What would be awesome, is if there was a way to use my Google voice account with my g1 but using data and not voice hehe.

I could have sworn I had voice dialer, (non-BT)
I think it was on perception 10.x
Now on Serendipity and cant for the life of me find the app. Is there a separate apk I can install ?
I used to be able to press a button and say "call robyn" and it would find it in the contacts and call.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4UDJtoMVaQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
Thanks
Long press Search.
That doesn't seem to be it. Long press search brings up google voice search.
If it is then it used to be different. Right now if I say, "call mom" it just brings up web search for call mom, and not look in my contacts.
The screen used to look like voice search, but I remember it had additional text instructions.
Thanks for helping though mike.
Update: I found a video of the app.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4UDJtoMVaQ&feature=youtube_gdata_player
I hope someone knows what it's called I searched app market with no luck.
voice dialer is built into stock 2.1 and 2.2 and most custom roms, also not to be confused with google voice search(2.2 only - mike).
It's in the kitchen now.
Sent from my Captivate.
Unless she is in your contacts as "Mom" it won't find it and will default to a Google search. I use Vlingo as it works better and all I have to do is say "Call so-and-so at home" and it goes to dialing with no other input from me. Works over BT also.

WHere is the voice dialer? How do you accesss it?
I've googled and googled and only kinda found something similar but it's only in source code (don't know how to compile) and doesn't appear finished...
Is there an app that will allow me to send SMS messages using my tablet, which sends over bluetooth to my phone, which then sends the SMS message out into SMS land?
Thanks!
Why to bother??? Use email to send SMS.
For instance if I need to send SMS to my phone using ANY computer (including G-tab), the way to do it is (Example for T-mobile): [email protected].
Where XXX-XXX-XXXX is your phone number.
I think it has to work with any provider, although @ part will differ from carrier to carrier.
Hope it helps.
I'm very familiar with that ability and you're right, that is one solution but not really one I'm looking for.
I'm really looking for an app for my tablet that is extremely similar to a standard sms app that will work off of my contacts list etc etc. Anyone else care to share their 2 cents?
(Assumes you're on a network and in USA)
Get a Google Voice Account and use the app to SMS.
Yep, another solution.
Anybody know of an app that does what I'm asking rather than just a workaround?
Example: ai.kittywolf.net/index.php/SMS_via_BlueTooth
Yeah man, there are a bunch of solutions. I like the google voice idea.

Okay, right, so as I've specified I'm looking specifically for an app that specifically does sms via bluetooth via phone... this is not google voice and it's not email to sms...
Anybody have anything to add regard my specific question rather than something to do with a workaround?
Just want to put this out there.
With Google Voice you can send SMS txt to your contacts for FREE!
No need for BT because you would use your wi-fi tether option on your android phone in the event you're not in an area where you can connect to the internet with out tethering to your phone.
Still not what I'm asking for but I appreciate the suggestion for google voice. My problem with google voice basically centers around the phone number. I would have to port my existing cell number to gv and get a new cell phone number (also $20 for the port). I don't want to get a new phone number and I don't really want to commit to the extent that i'm porting my beloved phone number to google.
All I want is an app... extremely simple concept and my guess is that the programming isn't terribly difficult...
The response you are looking for is
NO!
The reason is no bluetooth DUN support in the gtab kernels. You always get a paired but not connected via bluetooth.
If you really want to use your phone you need to tether the gtab to the phone (plenty of options - search is the key), and then use handcent or similar.

Heres a thread I started in the Xoom section.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=977688
Basically my idea, which I outlined in there is as follows:
I've been thinking about this alot over the past couple of days even to the point that I began to investigate and play around with the Android SDK to see what I might be able to do, which is not alot at the moment.
I thought of this app functioning as follows:
1) We currently have a bunch of applications that allow the user to view and respond to their text messages through an interface on the browser or computer application using an app on the phone that "broadcasts" the messaging features of the phone out over either WiFi or bluetooth. (For example, the ones mentioned earlier in this thread.)
2) We also have something called "Remote Notifier" that sends out a "ping" when a new message is received to a listening service on a computer which notifies the user on the desktop.
3) If the existing functionality of those two are combined, we have an application that can put together a list of the messages on the phone (primary location), send it out to a secondary location (in this case a tablet), while also notifying the secondary location (tablet) of a new message received.
The app on the phone also gives the secondary location the ability to respond and edit the message list on the phone.
4) The second piece of the equation we would need is an app for the tablet, preferably optimized for the screen size in a 5manner similar to the way Gmail and the native email client handle messaging, (with a list of messages on the left, and the conversation view on the right) that allows the user to browse their messages on the phone and reply within the app.
If the app on the tablet could "look" to the phone as the service provider instead of the network, I could even see notifications being created from within that app and displayed on the tablet just as if it was actually receiving the texts itself.

I would appreciate any and all help or comments relating to the idea. I think i'll repost it in the main android apps section, since really its not specific to any one tablet.
try this
http://www.kakao.com/talk/en
to the op i totally understand what u want and am also interested.
pairing the tablet with android phone using bluetooth so when u received sms you get notified in your tablet an you be able to replay using your tablet wich will make the phone send this message without u having to remove ur phone from your pocket.
all the solutions mentioned are using wifi, which is a different thing.
i currently use a combination of apps to achieve wifi sms connectivity
remoteSMS + sms2Email buddy. (for notification) this works well in home wifi.
i would be very interested in a blutooth solution (it might be crippled cz it has to be close, but it doesnt need data connectivity chargs)
so +1 for the requesr, please let me know if u found a solution
Well thanks for agreeing with me that it's not a dumb request... No luck so far... keep ya posted if I come up with something.
its not dump at all, .. it has an advantage of not using any wifi / 3g data connecitivty, it would be like having a PadPhone (sms PadPhone)
and actually its not that hard as someone said.
the bluetooth does not have to have an sms api for the app to work, the tablet app could send a text file and the phone app receives the text file, parses it and send a message using the sms api (normal apps can use sms api) and vice versa for receiving an sms .. app gets a copy of the sms received, put it in a text file, sends it to the tablet app using bluetooth, tablet app parses the file and shows it.
i would start developing it but it would take me a long time as am sill noobish in android development, ... if someone could take the lead let me know i might be able to help a little.

Try "Sync SMS"
It still requires wifi, but can send and receive sms's from your tablet via your phone.
Any SMS you receive will go to both your phone and tablet. You can reply from either phone or tablet.
It requires a free Dropbox account.
The whole process of transferring sms's back and forth takes about 20_30 seconds and requires no action on your part.
However in the end I just got a separate Google voice number for my g-tablet and use that.

I understand what you are looking for and it would be nice to have, to be able to use your tablet wherever you are without worrying about wifi connection. But like you said so far there is nothing.
Also you don't have to port your existing number to GV, I use the same cell number I have used for years on my cell phone and got a separate number for my tablet there was no porting or charge involved.

its wifi and its not for free, .. i cant buy it, stupid market restrictions, i asked the developer if he needs a beta tester to let me know.
i get the same function without using dropbox, just my local wifi .. and for free.
i found something, but its paid also, .. ble, ... its over bluetooth though, if anyone willing to try

the app for that is on the market now, its called "bluetooth sms" its 1.99 though but it has a nice honeycomb interface.
Does anyone know how to make a phone call with Google Voice on the Nook? I open up the Phone app, Dial the number and on top it says "Dialing with Google Voice" then I get a error message saying "Mobile Network Not Available" (BTW GV is free for yet another year!) I assume the Nook / Android software is looking for a cellular data network that doesn't exist. Is it possible to make it use WIFI???
I'm sorry if this question has been asked and answered in different forums but I haven't found it anywhere.
Thank you.
well, to answer a simple way...there is no microphone so even if you get it working for voice, you can listen not talk.
the text messaging side works well for me though.
I think the only way is to use a bluetooth microphone / headset
I haven't tried anyway ...

I think you forgot about Bluetooth...But, that still doesn't answer the question on how do you make it make phone calls. I want to make calls with Google Voice just like I do when I go to the website on my desktop. If anyone knows how please share!
Can't do it via the app - it's simply not enabled for SIP calls. It always uses the cellular voice connectivity, even if you tap the "Use Google Voice" option on the prompt.
Have you tried the mobile web interface via the Browser though?
If you were to use bluetooth and do a google voice call in to viop setup that might ring your nook gingerbread has settings to enter a sip account. Id try it up gizmo is no more and dont really need to set up a pbx or whatever the other way to do it
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Try sipdroid if stock GB voip settings don't work. Use the GV call back app to get past dialing out fees. Sipgate may still be free.
Use a sipgate account and google voice callback to make calls when i roam on my evo. Not sure if itll work on nook. ill give it a shot if i can find a bluetooth headset to use
Any word on this working? I have been trying allot of things tonight to get this to work in some way
nope even with bluetooth headset working, it does not have a way of receiving the voice signals and channeling it so no phone calls (yet)

Hero for now EVO3D day it's out! Thanks devs for all the hard work on my hero.
the point is regardless on making or receiving phone calls - your voice won't be transferred - so all you do is listen

Nope...remembered and tossed to the side...no one has a working bluetooth with mic in yet. The nook was never intended for recording at all(which is still stupid in my opinion...voice notes in books would be a KICK ASS feature). Once there is a working mic in on bluetooth, then GV will be the bees knees.

Absolutely. I do it all the time using Google Voice and a WiFi connection. Note that I am running Cyanogenmod from an microSD card at the time. Haven't tried it directly using the rooted nook software.
I use Google Voice for Nookie texting. I do say Bluetooth voice calls over wifi would be slick.

worked fine for me on rooted stock, also.
This is the only way that I have found to currently use Google Voice. I have a grandfathered faves plan with Tmo and have set my Google number as a fave. I can dial any number out from Google Voice, which rings my cell phone. I answer the cell and Google rings the other number, using my cell phone. I can make these calls from the NC, using Dolphin browser. They connect and are very clear. No success using NC browser. Also, no used minutes on my cell phone plan!
