I like using Bixby, but i dont have voice activate on. I use the button. What i would like is use a voice command to turn on voice activation
So i have a routine called Driving. So i push the button for bixby, and i say driving. Then it turns on voice commands for bixby for hands free.

Hi:
I've been searching for info how to achieve the following, which I can't get done so far:
I have stereo bluetooth headphones with a mic. These are great for receiving calls, when you don't have the phone easily accessible, like in the car etc.
They have only two buttons, one is a two-way joystick for loudness. The other one is a receive/hangup button using which you can accept incoming calls.
What I'd like to do is to enable it to activate voice dial when I press it, to make a phone call.
So far I've only discovered that if I hold it depressed a long time, then the headset redials the last-dialed number.
In some instances after a call, when I've pressed the button, voice dial has come up and asked for the called id, however I cannot replicate this behavior, and it doesn't do it when the home screen is visible. Only I think after I've dialed from the headset, then hang up. Then at that screen press the button, but it's not stable.
So it seems though, to use the button to activate voice-dial is possible. I'd just like to set it up so that it works.
Anyone know how to?
Try holding one of the buttons
Depending on the BT adapter, you might have to hold down the receive/hangup button till you hear a confirming beep.
its usually a short press for voicedial a little longer press for redial last number. so try just doing short press insead of holding it down
Does anyone know if it's possible to assign a function to the trackball (or other button) to perform a specific action in an application.
The particular scenario I'm trying to cover here is mute and un-mute of the microphone during a voice call. I have not been able to find a way to mute and un-mute a call without turning on the screen, unlocking the phone and then pressing the mute button in the phone app. What I'd love to be able to do is just press the trackball or press and hold the up or down volume buttons to mute or un-mute the phone.
I travel quite a bit for business and walking through an airport with a headset on and the phone on mute it's VERY inconvenient to have to stop, put a bag down follow the three steps listed above just to chime in on a conference call.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a BlueAnt Endure headset connected to my XPZ. Randomly my phone will dial someone from my phone book. I have just realised that it is because I keep the headset in my pocket (when not in use) and if I accidentally lean on it and subsequently press the command button twice within a few seconds it will enable the 'Voice Dialer'. It will then interpret any noise or voice into random numbers or sometimes a phonebook name.
I have called BlueAnt and they tell me that I cannot disable the 'Voice Dialer' command within the unit.
Is there a way to disable this action on the phone? Is this a SONY or an Android thing?
Do I need to install a custom ROM to disable this function?

I've got a minor voice search issue. I'm using speaktoit's assitant app, which is very helpful at times. Before I updated my ROM (insertcoin for HTC One) everything worked perfectly, but since the update, the behavior of two things are not how I like and I cant figure out how to fix them.
1. Pressing the home button and dragging up launches my assistant app. I want to disable that entirely. it already launches on home button long-press
2. When I speak, the voice search box shows that its listening to my voice, but when I stop talking, it keeps listening for a good 10 seconds before it actually passes off to the assistant. It used to be near instant, but now its as if it can no longer detect when i've stopped talking. Now I have to hit the mic button to stop it.
of course, these aren't critical, just minor, slightly annoying behaviors I'd like to iron out, and I can't find the info on google, so I'm asking the experts.
In Samsung mobiles, via Settings, a feature can be enabled which allows receiving phone calls by pressing physical "Home Button" (instead of swiping on the screen).
The Xiaomi Mi5 also has a physical Home Button.
Can we enable receiving phone calls upon pressing physical Home Button? Yes/No.
If Yes, please guide where in settings this can be found and how to enable it. Thanks.
