Wired Headset mapped to voice command?

if we can get the bluetooth headset then why not the wired headset?

I agree fully...i need the wired headset for my motorcycle...i need to be able to access voice command from my wired headset button. There must be a way to do this!

I've written an app to do this, but it's not released yet. One day... gotta turn it into something useful.

There are many people looking for a program that'll do it.
There is a program that seems to work for some (talk button detector), but doesn't for many.
When you release the program, where will we be able to find it, vijay555?
Thanks

If and when it's released, it'll be on my website. But it's likely to take a while because I want to mash it together with some other features and functions, and I'm writing some other intensive apps first.
What do you need the app to do, just launch another specified app?

Thanks for the reply Vijay.
The only feature I seem to need would be running a voice dialer application like Voice Speed Dial that comes with MDA, or Voice Commander, so that I can not only receive but also make calls through the wired headset. Maybe while the voice application is running, pressing the button again should close the application.

My original Cingular Rom had this function, so did another one i flashed later(can't remember specific). Sadly most Roms do not support this. Talkbutton seemed like the answer but didn't work for me. I also tried a cab from the Hermes section, but no success on 8125.
Perhaps someone could extract the files from one of the official Roms, or Vijay555 could, perhaps, share some info on this, when he is free, as he seems to be the only one that has this figured out.
Thanks in advance

I'm afraid I'm not in a position to share info on it right now, it's some R&D I did a while back but I haven't had a chance to chase it up further yet to turn it into an app. Once I do, I'll need to tighten it up into a more comprehensive app. I will do it though.
I'll try to look into it soon, maybe a standalone is possible.

i remember having a panasonic walkman, an old fashioned tape player, yet it was nice. one of it's best features was a remote with only one button, that reacted to long/single/double/tripple press with acordingly: reverse, pause/play, FF, REV. this was great, and times was like 1995? wish i could do it with wizard's talkbutton, i was hoping to find an app like this, but no luck so far. vijay, i really believe you can do this... and it has been a while since you last posted here, maybe theres been some progress on your work? (sorry if i sound demanding

The app works as far as I need to it to, but it would benefit from a single button driven "interface", eg one click = launch app, two clicks = close app etc.
However, I've been out of the scene for a few months, and will not be back until the New Year. After that I'll try to start getting back into research.

Good thing to hear! I'm waiting patiently.
Of course it is obvious but i'll ask; would it be customisable?
i know it would be easy to implement config for actions like launching other programs or closing specific ones... i don't dare to hope for something like sending messages to different apps like tcpmp that would allow to switch tracks or other things... i guess i'll try to figure it out myself, but with my poor knowledge of WM api it will be rather a disaster ;]

Problem with music playing (touch-it wm6.1 19199.1.0.0)

So, having been a steady user of Touch-IT since 2.2 which was the first rom I flashed to, I really loved the feature where I could play music while having the music turned off. However, this seems to have changed with Touch-IT wm6.1 19199.1.0.0 - Full.
When I start Windows Media (or Audio Manager, I tested with both) and hit play, then push the power button, I it cuts the sound. This is rather annoying as it makes it hard to lock the phone with the power button (and thus saving power ) while still listening to music.
So what I'd like to know if anyone can confirm it - and if they can, if they have any solution for it; Alternately, anyone who has a solution is of course welcome to just post that.
Thanks in advance.

Another thing I'd like to know, is if it's possible to somehow keep Windows Media Player and WM6.1 synced in regards to music? I have an auto playlist which is set to grab music from a certain folder of a certain type (By genre: Podcast), because I like to listen to podcasts..
So what I want is basically to sync my phone like I did my ipod nano with itunes, back when I had that.. Has anyone any experience with this, because I'd like to know if it's possible.
EDIT: I found out how to do this, but now all I need to know is how to have the files automatically get deleted every time they're played through or everytime I sync and WMP finds that they've been played - I thought I had a solution to this, but apparently I don't.
My solution was to simply configure a auto playlist to not list any files which has a Last Played date of ever, so that it'd remove them from the auto playlist once they were played, but I can't seem to make that work.

This thing is mentioned from Ayerthon in many other posts....
so why starting anew thread??
Please try to search first and then start a new thread....

Nope - none of those solutions seems to work. It's not that it pauses the music, the music keeps playing in the background so whenever I press the power button again I can hear it has progressed.
Either that, or everything described in those two threads don't solve it afterall.

Great, thanks. All I needed was that username and I found it in a jiffy. Thanks papamopps.
I wish I could say I was at good at using vbullitins search function as I am at using google (though that didn't turn out anything interesting either, sadly)..

Next time use the "search link" in my signiture......
Therefor i have it there

But that still doesn't help me as the solution posted on either of those pages doesn't work. They all involve just have it running in the background which I know it is, and they all mention that it pauses which mine doesn't.

Nope - nothing that I haven't tried (except tcmmp) has worked as a viable solution..
The only thing that tcmmp can do is it can turn the screen off with a button. Other that that, I don't like the player at all, so what I need to have is a solution to the problem that's not on the threads that I've found using google

even do this is a useless Topic I will announce this.

Yay for you.
Also, you and I have exactly the same setup for phones, Ayerthon.

hihi
Ok everybody I got a solution to play Music In Standby mode with the BLACK ROM by Itjes *check my signature for the linK!*

Ayerthon's solution worked for me.

s2p 0.40

with the latest slide2play version 0.40, is there a way to get it to organise tracks in terms of their track number than alphabeticaly? also, is it possible to get it to open up as the default music player on the latest htc home today screen plugin?
thanks

The best place to ask this question is in the S2P thread on the Development and Hacking section of XDA. You will be more likely to get an answer in that thread since people with all kinds of devices running S2P will see it.

cheers for the advice mate

Not a problem. Just wanted to make sure you were pointed in the right direction.

Shortcut to Speakerphone

I have had a search around using the Google search and not been able to uncover anything, the forum search does not appear to be working very well for me either.
What I am keen to find out is if there is a Soft/hard button shortcut to picking up a call and having it go onto speakerphone instantly.
When driving or otherwise occupied for example and the phone is Locked/Password protected it is impossible to get to the Speaker On button on the Phone Interface without divering alot of attention or actually having to slide the keyboard and type the password in.
Perhaps I am missing an obvious thing from documentation but if anyone could point me in the right direction or perhaps some software/reg tweaks which can achieve this it would be much appreciated.
Cheers.

When on a call press and hold Send (Green button), if this opens an application or doesnt work try deleting \Windows\Long_Send.lnk

Awesome thanks, hoping it was something simple

[Q] Button input through the GPIO port

For my first experiment with the Pi I plan on getting soon, I want to make some kind of mobile music player. I want to be able to, in the end, have buttons that play/pause, skip and go back to the previous track, random, and repeat using the GPIO. I was curious as to if this was possible?
This is my first project doing anything including programming or configuring something along these lines in any way, heard a bunch about the Pi and figured it would help get me started. Any help would be appreciated.

Your best bet would probably be to use the python module RPi.GPIO to control the RPi's GIPO's. I would recommend checking out Ada Fruits guide to install the RPi.GPIO module, as well as their tutorial about Playing Sounds and Using Buttons on the RPi. Other resources that would be worth taking a look at is Ada Fruits GIPO setup guide and this tutorial on Buttons and Switches with the RPi. Good luck with your project :good:.
