not really working for me, once I push the BT button - it ask for the command but the the BT disconnects ...

Works fine for me on my JX-10.

My Jabra BT8010 works well so far with voice command.
FYI; The default mode on the BT8010 is "music mode" This means if you push the large center BT8010 button into your head, it is the pause/play button for Media Player. Here's what you do.......
You have to press the (mode) button at the tip of the BT8010 once to turn off music mode. *icon will change on LCD screen) Now when you press the large center BT8010 button into your head, you'll then hear the voice command boobeep and it works great!

Turn on BT durring a call?
BT question:
Are we supposed to be able to activate our bluetooth headset durring a phone call already in progress? (you want to switch your headset on, in the midde of phone call) I was able to do this just fine on my iPAQ 6900. I noticed that if I activate bluetooth durring a phone call, the system/phone audio will not transfer to the bt headset unless I hang up the current phone call first. The system icon will show it's connected though! I then have to hang upt and call them back and my headset works as it should. This also happened on my 750 via WM5, but I was hoping the new 750 WM6 would fix this. (just updated)
Is this the same behavior for everyone else or is it somethign to do with my BT8010?

I can transfer calls to my Motorola H700 just fine, but I heard the BT8010 dont work quite right with WM. I was actually interested in getting the BT8010's pretty soon - how well does it work? Is the call transfering during a call problem the only thing you've encountered? I've heard it takes away your ringtone(only rings in the headset - not from the phone) can you turn a2dp on/off with ease?

I can turn on my bluetooth (Aliph Jawbone) during the middle of a call and it will transfer the call to the headset.
I can also use VoiceCommand over the bluetooth headset.

same for me with motorola BT (HS500).

Strange. Mine allows me to say the command ... just tried it and dialed out to my brother.

I figured it out, I need to hit the action button my jabra before the audio is transfered over to the headset. (durring an already active phone call with bt turned on later/in the middle of it) This makes sense, since it allows you to control when the audio switches over in case you're not ready. In the past it was automatic. I remember a few times not having my headset on so it's better this way anyway. Everything works great.

Well VC is halfway working for me so far with my MotoHS850... I can make calls by speaking the name and then it dials fine. But VC is not announcing the Caller via BT, although I have that selected under VC settings.
I am also getting this odd behavior I described in detail here: http://discussion.treocentral.com/showthread.php?t=149924

I cant even get it to work without a BT headset... think it is my accent though.

For me, everything works fine so far using a Jabra BT5020 except for one thing. When I activate VC via the headset I get the prompt over bluetooth but then silence. The prompt then repeats over the handset, and it is only then that I am able to initiate a voice command. If I try to do it at the first prompt over the headset, the command won't make it to the phone. The commands are also not repeating over the headset. Anyone else experiencing this?

Jawbone, HTC/Cingular Tilt Voice Commander not working for me...
I too am having difficulties to get the Jawbone to activate Voice Commander v1.60.4622.0. It will start to open the phone connection but then that's it.
Also MS Voice Command is suppose to do more like open apps.; calendar, contacts, etc... nothing happens.
I know MSVC works, when I hit the activation button I set (which happens to be the Windows Start menu) it then will do the typical VC beep and then allow me to speak my command.
I'm thinking it's more a Jawbone thing. I did have it working on my 8525 but I killed that thing.

BT and VC work fine for me using Jawbone. You need to look at the help file on the Palm relating to the VC proper usage as it did not really work for me until I did some reading. There are very specific words you must use to get it to work i.e. Open Contacts FAILS but Show Contacts succeeds. Then Show "conatct name" will show you the person you are looking for. As far as initiating a call via BT headset, I press the Jawbone side button this gives me a tone then a pause then another tone then you speak your instructions i.e. Call John Smith, there will be a pause while the app looks for John Smith, then it will repeat the name to you and ask if you want to call John Smith at Home, Work, or mobile depending on what you have saved for that particular contact. I have noticed it isn't perfect. If you have a contact with a phonetically difficult name it would be wise to change the contact name to Bob B instead of Bettencourt as at times the VC doesn't understand the name spoken. Overall it works pretty good, much better than my old Razr and there is no setup involved just say the name and go.

MS Voice Command Help

For some reason today MS Voice Command stopped announcing things such as messages and incoming phone calls. It wrked fine before, announced everything, but now when i get a call or message (vmail, txt, email) my headset will beep as iff it were about to anounce like it did before but then is just silent (i can hear the speaker active though as iff the bluetooth is active). I have everything checked to announce in the options and nothing has been changed but i am just wondering if anyone can help me solve this prob;em...ive also tried unchecking all options, soft resetting and then rechecking them all to no avail...

sorry guys i ended up finding a solution...my own idiocy lol

just bought a new bluetooth headset (jabra bt530) and now voice command won't announce calls through the headset. the phone rings and the headset also makes a sound to notify of a call, but it won't announce the caller's name. i can perform all other voice command functions from the headset.
everything worked fine with my last headset. and calls are announced when the headset is off so the phone isn't the problem. if it means anything, this headset has the wireless stereo profile.

Did you go into Voice Command Setting and Click Notifications and set it to announce over bluetooth?
You may search for the MSVC Tutorial Thread in The Kaiser Software Section.

I have to be a real newb...what is voice command?Where is it?

Its a program that you have to install unless you have it in your rom already, it allows you to COMPLETELY use you phone with voice commands. It requires no voice training at all, it works with microsoft's dynamic voice recognition.

fixed one problem and got another. using start>connections>bluetooth, i turned off the wireless stereo option and the headset started announcing calls. however, now the headset won't announce text messages. they'll just go through the phone speaker. this is weird.
i guess i could just use bt toggle to direct all audio to the headset but if there is any other way to fix it let me know.

problem solved. deleted the partnership and then paired it agan. but this time i immediately turned off the wireless stereo function. voila. everything comes thru the headset.

diar, how do you initiate MVC from your Jabra bt530. I get all notifications, just can't use it from my bluetooth. I tried holding the button, pressing it twice; nothing.

Help Help A list of MSVC
Does anyone now where in the internet a compleate list of all the voice commands. I have had no luck finding them.

HTC Fuze and Prius Bluetooth

I've paired my fuze to my 09 prius, but when incoming calls come in, I'm unable to hear the caller (they can hear me). Outgoing calls work fine (I can here them, and they can hear me) - it's just when I answer the phone using the Prius bluetooth handsfree.
I've had this phone paired to a motorola T505, and jawbone without issue. I've also paired an iPhone to the Prius, and it works fine, so it seems to be a specific combination of incoming calls and the fuze. I did delete the pairing and re-paired, which didn't work.
Stock ROM installed, google didn't return anything useful. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

BT No sound on incoming calls
I hope that someone would anser this question!
I started having the same problem with my Bluetooth "Handsfree" Cardo-S800on my Fuze phone. When I call other people - everything works fine, but when I get an incoming call and answer from my BT or Phone - I cannot hear people but they hear me!.
If I use "Menu - Disable HandsFree then Enable HandsFree again" - I get the sound back!
It is definitely some setting in my phone that got "broken", becuase I had my car BT "Uconnect" working fine, but then it got th esame problem - no sound on incoming calls.
Anyone got a clue?

A hard reset solved the problem with my Fuze with the Toyota bluetooth in the Prius.

[Q] using bluetooth headphones/ video

Hey all,
I have HD7 and listen to music when travelling, everything works fine. But just recently I attempted to watch a film and the sound will not play through the Bluetooth headphones, it transfers the sound to the speakers? Anyone know how to change this at all??

Hi, I noticed the same issue on mine and there seems no way to change it.
I will offer a thought on why i think is happening.
On my other Android phones only the Galaxy S actually did a good job of keeping the audio and video in sync when using Bluetooth A2DP. The protocol has buffering in it so for audio its no problem but video can be tricky.
I think they just set it to not use Bluetooth for video audio to save complaints.
shame.

Hello, do you have the possibility to call a contact with the voice ( voice dialing) by the headset like on the HD1 ( and not on the HD2) ?
Thanks

I don't know whether you can activate the voice dialing using purely the headset, but you can use voice dial through a bluetooth headset. Just connect the headset and then hold down the start button until it asks you to speak. It works no matter which app you're using.
It also works without the headset.

bluetooth headphones
Hi,
To Russ, i previously had a Touch Diamond 2 and used these same headphones and it worked perfectly. I actually believe it has something to do with Zune and the player that they use?, it cant recognise that a headset is attached and therefore reverts to the speakers.
With regards to activating the voice dialing, with my bluetooth headphones which are Sony ericsson ones, it has an answer button, which when pressed with no incoming call it activates the voice dialling just as usual saying the same "Call mum".

Thank you, goood news because the HD2's bluetooth stack wasn't able to hear the voice dialing by the blutooth headset , and it only works only by the HD2's microphone.
Thank you

I am not sure if you are still looking for this, but YES, the voice dialing can be activated using the BT Headset. I have a Voyager Pro Plus and it works just fine.

As per the original thread title, I am having the same problem playing video files audio not getting transmitted via my BT Headset, So I called HTC to ask them what was the problem. They confirmed it is a software issue.
He said, it was a WP7 limitation. May be the future updates might get that feature, but right now it SUX. I am not sure how MS managed to F#$% this up. I am really Pissed. I was waiting for ever for this Headset so that I can watch my movies during my commute with the convenience of a BT Headset, now the whole purpose is lost.

Using voice outside of calls with BT headset

I've got a bluetooth headset (Nokia BH-503) which works great for calls and music.
However, I tried using it with the Teamspeak app, and found out the voice is still being recorded from the phone mic itself.
To add on this, when I try to record (with the built in app) or use voice commands - It doesn't work (It doesn't record through the mic. It just doesn't work at all.)
Is there a way to use a BT headset as a mic outside of calls? It's obviously possible, since it works on calls, but what about everything else?
