Parrot carkit mute problem - Touch Cruise ROM Development

Dear all,
I have a Parrot CK3100 carkit and I am running Bepe's 0.61 WWE and Radio 1.58.25.14.
BT pairing and sync is (more os less) seamless but I found that when I initiate the call with the phone's green button the call goes through the phone's loudspeaker. When I initiate the call with either by clicking on the contact's picture or action button on the name or voice dialing by Parrot everything works fine.
I know that I can turn the Parrot carkit's loudspeaker on by clicking menu->"turn headset on" but it is so dangerous to chek it and activate it while driving.
Is this the expected behaviour? Is this a Radio stack related problem? Anything I could do about making the external speakers work all the time the headset profile is activated? Anyway, it used to work as I expected with the original ROM.
Thanks, Z

Yes, instead of pushing green button on phone use the call button on Parrot and everything works fine.

You mean I've got to search for the contact on the phone or on the Parrot? Because I prefer the phone's T9 dialer. Would it work if I chose the contact on the phone and pressed the green button on Parrot? Will play with that tomorrow.
And once we're talking about Parrots...
I have 1015 contacts to sync. BT sync is okay (I use "Windows CE" when pairing), but quite a few of my numbers do not go to the carkit. (I don't have to tell there are my mom, sister, kids etc. All my customers are on the carkit.) Can I do anything about that? I can send them one by one, but OBEX is not working according to my experiences. It says it was okay, but I cannot find the contact afterwards.
Any idea is highly appreciated. Thanks

Get MS Voice Command, and never browse your phone book again. Trust me its a well worthwhile investment, I can't think of a single person that bought it and regretted it.

Look at this, perhaps it can help.

Doesn't work for me since my car apparently is too noisy (at least while running).
Sascha

As far as the noise is concerned, the trick is that you have to record the names while driving so that noise would be on the records as well. Fortunately, I have a Civic and that makes perfect background noise for this operation
Anyway, I have VC enabled but I am using only to narrate my upcoming appointments while headset profile is on and the calendar is free. Do not use that for dialing or navigating the shell.

Since when do you have to record names in order to use MS voice command?
It's a speech recognition software which is user independant.

Hi, as I said, I do not use VC for dialing. I use Parrot for that and I am basically very satisfied with that. The only problem is that, for some peculiar reason, not all my contacts gets sync-ed there.

BT voice dial while in standby

Voice dialing from bluetooth works fine while my K-Jam is on, but when it goes into standby mode it doesnt work. I press the button on the headset and I get the headset beep indicating it has connected, but I never hear the speed dail beep. If I bring the K-Jam out of standby mode, I can see the speed dial program is on teh screen, but it seems stuck. Maybe any ideas?
Thanks, John
All Wizards suffer from this; currently no known way around it, hopefully a update will cure this issue or someone will find a way.
A little more digging and I have seen where others have tried to find a work around. Here is what I am doing for now. I am turning off automatic standby and using the "device lock" to keep buttons from accidentally being pushed instead of putting it in standby by pushing the power button. I am not sure what the battery usage will be now, but I will test it for awhile and see. By the way, does anyone know how I can assign one of the hard buttons to device lock? Is there an exe somewhere or can someone point me to a registry entry for this?
Thanks
haven't found keylock yet, but found "power off"
may create a short cut in programs?
My Qtek does not have this problem.
I'm using voicedial from my bluetooth headset. It works perfect even when the phone is in standby mode! It wakes up and makes the call perfectly!! I have a Qtek 9100 and a SonyEricsson HBH-662.
same here with my dopod 838 and HBH-662 it seems to work nicely even if the device is in standby. Is this because of the headset?
::adit
No problem here either...
Dutch MDA Vario + HBH-662 headset - works like a charm standby or not.
By the way... why bother installing MS Voice when the Wizard comes with it's own voice dialing utility?

Probably because MS Voice Command is based on speaker independent recognition. So, you don't record a voice tag for the few contacts you dial most often, you just say 'call <contact> at|on mobile|home|work' and it will try and recognise the contact from your entire list.
Also pretty cool for casually pressing the button and asking 'what appointments do I have today' and having the details and locations read out to you...

OEM voicedial does not allow you to dial by digits 5-5-5-1-2-3-4 etc OEM voice dial is limited to voice tags MS Voice Command allows you to dial any contact in you're list also the ability of MS VC to announce upcoming appointments etc.
There are more these are only a few examples.
Can you guys that are able to make BT calls from standbye mode post what rom etc you have installed?
Thanks, John
Question for all you guys with the SE HBH-662 headsets. Does the caller ID on the Headset work? Meaning when you get an incoming call does it scroll the phone number only or does it display the name of the contact (if you have them in your contacts)? And how is the battery life of the headset ? I've got a Motorola HS850 which I love but I'm having the same problem with voice dialling from Standby and am willing to buy another headset if it works.
Thanks.
Hi firas,
Only the number is displayed in a scrolling fashion and it has a good battery life. Highly recommended
I have the HBH-600 but dont think it would work any different with another headset. My K-Jam receives the signal, and beeps, but seems to get stuck after that. When I take it out of standbye after trying it, I see the voice app is open, but seems to be stuck. If another headset will fix the problem, I would gladly buy it.
John

My HBH-660 does the same thing as your's I may go ahead and get the HBH-662 and try it thogh, if it will fix the issue that would be great.

One method that does work is to use the "redial" function on your headset. On my HS850 it's press and hold the call button. The Wizard _will_ wake up and start dialling your last used number. Just tap the headset button again to cancel the call, and you're ready to use Voicedail.
Initiating a redial then cancelling it to get the phone to wake up is a work around but not a fix. I hope they resolve this or if the HBH-662 does work I wonder what the difference is?

Thanks for your constructive input and for stating the obvious :roll: I was simply correcting your statement that there is "currently no known way around it" which is not true. All it takes is two extra button presses.
Tried my new Wizard last night with my old Plantronics M3000 bluethooth headset, Device was in stanby and when i pressed the button on the headst it woke up and voice dailed no problems.
I am using the standard T- Mobile roms with the MDA Vario as it is only a day old.
Hope this helps

Microsoft Voice Command 1.6?

Do any of you have MSFT VC 1.6 installed on the Advantage? I know there were many issues with this software app and the TYTN (such as notifications through speaker and being forced to apply a major registry settings tweak). Can someone confirm that using MSFT VC 1.6 works perfectly with the Advantage or if there are similar problems like with the TYTN?
Thanks

I copy that! Work like a charm on my Ameo.
Yup, it all works perfectly on my Ameo, even issuing commands thru bluetooth is working fine, which was a pig to sort out on the Universal.
Can you please tell me how you got your msft 1.6 voice command working? My audio still routes through to the speaker, not the BT headset. Do you have to do anything to get it working?
I went through all the other forums about this, nothing works.
~Sigh~
I installed it - and it all worked, no tweaking required.
Have you set the "Notifications" settings to direct the audio to Bluetooth only?
What about Voice Command 1.5?
Has anyone got 1.5 to work?
When I try, I just get "Voice Command has encountered a problem. Restart Voice command and try again"
I've tried installing it both to Main Memory, and Microdrive. I've tried resetting it both before and after installing.
No joy.
Anyone else have more luck?

Doesn't really work on my Advantage. Works just like it did on the Tytn.
Activating MSVC thru headset works. All audio comes thru speaker phone. Notifications do not go thru headset only thru speakerphone
And yes, I have notifications set to onlu bluetooth..Oh Well

Mine works flawlessly through bt when initiated from the device. However, I am unable to initiate with my Jabra BT8010
I found out that if I uncheck the Password Protected box in MSVC settings' dialogue that it works fine.
activate Voice Command via BT Headset?
Can you activate the BT via the BT headset? I remember trying one long itme ago on a Blue Angel and I had to configure a button on the device to activate it. Does it work there?
Thank you.

Have you changed the mode to phone on you BT8010s? Otherwise it just keeps playing/pausing your music.
Works perfectly on the three x7500's I purchased. ;-)
I've been using the Mocrosoft voice commnd v.1.6 for a few weeks now. I have the US version, which unfortunately have a different dialing rule from ours in Australia. So, you can't use the dial funtion - only the call funtion would work in Australia. For those not familiar, "dial command" is supposed to let you dial a number. whereas "call command" lets you call a contact by name or nick name in your address book. The numbers, to be acceptable and recognised by the dial command must be one of the following formats:
nnn-nnnn
nnn-nnn-nnnn
1-nnn-nnn-nnnn
n-1-1
international dialing with a + or 0 prefix.
I was puzzled as to why I was unable to use the dial command, and to me a while to realise the limitation.
I heard from other forum participant that he has used the UK version, which allow him to dial the australisan numbers.
If you use this product, could you kindly look into the help file under tips for making calls and list all the number formats acceptable to the UK versions please?
Thanks
Have now purchased VC 1.6 German - disappointed....
In my car I have an FWD audio com car kit - no audio comes from the car kit. Everything is going throug Ameo speaker and mic. Therefore impossible to use in car while driving.
Settings: password unchecked, BT only.
What can I do ?

Is your BlueTooth turned on? Is your car kit paired using the Hands-free profile?
TO CHECK:
In Comm Manager, go to Setting menu and select BlueTooth.
In "Mode" tab, made sure BT is on!
In "Devices" tab,
* If it shows in the list tap on it and see whether Hands Free is enabled.
* If it does not show, tap "Add New Device..." and follow the steps.

Enable audio through your BlueTooth headset...

I found this file a couple of days ago in another forum under xda-developers.com. I can't remember exactly which one so I'm posting the file here for anyone that needs it because I can't find the link I downloaded it from.
There are three files in the btaudio.zip archive. BTAudioOff.exe, BTAudioOn.exe and BTAudioToggle.exe. If I read correctly BTAudioToggle.exe works as a stand alone file. Just save it anywhere, create a shortcut or map a button to it and you're done. It'll basically toggle the BTAudio on or off. Pretty simple. The other two files are self explanatory, one turns on the feature and one turns it off. I tested it today while watching a movie on my XDA. Works pretty nicely and I've found no bugs yet.
This works perfectly with my Jawbone. Yes, it will probably drain the battery on the headset but I only use it in temporary circumstances.
Hope this is useful to someone else.
the hp ipaq 6965 which i had before the x7500 had this feature built in, i'm wondering if windows mobile 6 will have it as well,
also, i tried this program and once you tap the answer button on your headset the audio goes back to the phone
Thanks for the heads up. I'll know to toggle it back on or turn it down.
it doesn't work when there is a call ..I mean it auto switch off and then no sound from BT..this app has been around for an year but practically no use..

Hi,
you can use btIO for the same. It's a tray app so there is no need of shortcuts for on/off/toggle.

Hi c0rnholio. Nice application, thanks.
I only have one problem though, whilst I can activate audio2bt successfully and I can hear music via my ordinary BT earpiece, it also automatically invokes my voice calling software thus switching the audio2bt immediately off.
Any ideas how to overcome this?

Well, if you don't use the built-in voicespeeddial then it's pretty easy.
Just set: HKLM\software\oem\voicecommand\launchappenable to 0
MS-VoiceCommand will still work after this reg-change.
If you do use the built-in app then I have no idea.

What is AudioGWCC ON/OFF?
The problem is with the scenario: I switched audio to headset, listen to music, incoming call, I pick up, music paused (Mort player), I hung up, music starts again, but it switched back to the device.

AudioGWCC is the Switch for the Audio Gateway Control Channel. I've put it in because of some headsets required to explicitly establish the control channel first (from what I've seen). The behaviour you described is normal. The device closes the control channel after a call is finished. I don't know if there is a way to deactivate or to circumvent it.

And it's freeware too. absolut perfect.
Gentlemen,
I am sorry to bother with the same topic, looks like all are happy with BtIO and similar utilites...
I have a problem that drives me crazy...
I am listen to audio books (using Mortplayer) a lot, the problem with incoming calls:
1. Switch audio to headset, sound plays in headset. Perfect.
2. Incoming call:
.........Device is switching sound to a loudspeaker
.........I hear 0.5 sec of loud sound comming from a device
.........Audio playback is paused
.........Ringtone plays from loudspeaker
3. I pick up the call using headset button
.........Audio switched back to headset
.........I can hear some ringtone sound for 0.5 sec
.........Phone conversation
4. I hung up using Phone button or headset button or another party hung ups
.........Audio playback resumed
.........Audio switched to loudspeaker
5. I have to act quickly to switch audio back to headset by pressing button. This is very annoying
I tried utilities:
acbToggleBT-0.8.cab
BTAudio_PPC.ARMV4.CAB
btaudiocf1.cab
btaudiotoday.cab
btIO-0.5.CAB
bluemusic 2.0.[desktop].exe
BlueMusic looks the best, still it can't detect the scenario (5)...
Looks like I am missing something... This problem looks a very basic for me and I believe should be already solved...
Please help!
Also, I don't see a practical value of utilities above... I can svitch Audio to BT and back just by clicking the button on a headset. (I desabled the Voice comander)
Regards,
Dimitriy
I haven't found a program fix that will resolve the issue yet. I love the utility and use it knowing what to expect. Doesn't make it useless, just isn't 100% perfect for some users. For me it works perfectly. I'd rather it have one bug than it not work at all. Maybe one day they will update the program but for now it's great for my use. I just take an extra moment to pause manually what I was listening to when a call comes in or while i'm on the call so this doesn't happen to me. Especially if I'm at a client site.

I can switch audo to BT and back by just clicking Send button on the headset. So what is the use of the utility?
hello poor guy me is the same i have tested all audio to bluetooth software and nothing work i have try the reshack on this site to put stereo to mono and nothing work i am disapointed the only solution i have is buy a stereo one because on the samsung i320 you have an option to use that kind of hardware.
if any person have a solution it was great
(sorry for my english)
With my headset (www.jawbone.com) if i click the button it activates audio to bt temporarily. It'll activate MS Voice Command then turn off. there are registry hacks that allow this to work differently but I prefer a utility to control it through. I havent been able to get audio to bt like many other users. I can watch movies, listen to my Corelayer, audiobooks, voicemail though email, etc in private. My device, HTC Advantage/x7500 can't do this by default. Maybe your headset allows these featured while mine doesn't. My headset is not meant to be used as an always on audio device so I need these utilities.

Voice Command Problem With AT&T Tilt2

I have a stock Tilt2 from AT&T. MS Voice Command v1.6.21849 came with it, but has a problem. When trying to call a contact, or dial a number, it can't actually initiate the call. it shows the contact briefly, and that's it. If you tell it to show the contact, no problem. But trying to call a contact, or dial a number, won't work. I have both "Contacts" and "Phone" enabled in settings. I have searched the site here for hours & been unable to find anyting. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Edited to add: The problem only arises when using a bluetooth Headset. Thanks in advance again!
Same Problem
I have noticed the same problem. I did discover if I had the phone in my hand (outside the case or pocket) that it worked. I wonder if the mic input transfers back to the handset after the initial inquiry (i.e first beep, "call contact x" second beep, voice input transfers to handset microphone.)
Mine doesn't care in hand or not. VC is getting the command just fine, it just can't initiate dialing? When BT is NOT connected: Hold the send key, listen for the tone, speak command, verify correct contact, contact briefly shows on screen, phone dials number. When BT IS connected: push the headset button OR hold the send key, listen for the tone, speak command, verify correct contact, contact briefly shows on screen, there's a dull tone and that's the end. So VC is getting the information because it pulls up the right contact. It just can't initiate dialing.

Hmm. I just tried it on my stock ROM ATT Tilt 2 and it works ok. However, I need to get the timing just right. If I confirm the contact too soon, nothing happens. If I wait 1-2 seconds before confirming, it works. Stupid Widcom Bluetooth stack.

Annouce works on held call
Hey guys,
I noticed today while i was on a call, another call came in and the voice command announced the call in my bt as it was suppose to.
I guess this goes back to the timing issue that was discussed on another thread about microsoft needing to update the vc software to work with these new BT stacks.
Anybody had any luck or can post bt headsets that actually work.
I upgraded from a Fuze which worked great with my headset not i have nothing working with the tilt 2
Please advise

I have a Blue Ant Q1 that works very good with the tilt 2 & VC. It will read my text, e-mails, & in-coming calls all over the BT. Sometimes the messages & e-mails will flop back & forth over blue tooth & speakerphone. Plus, I can listen to my music on the Q1 as well.
I have the BlueAnt Q1 headset also and contrary to what was said eariler it does not announce incoming through the Tilt 2 Voice Commander software. This headset has its on software the will announce incoming phone number only but is not able to link that number to a name in your contacts.
Its a very neat headset as everything is done by voice commands. But like all the other headsets talked here it will announce everything else (Emails, appointments, test messages, etc) but incoming caller information through VC.
you ever get the feeling the left hand (microsoft)doesn't know what the right hand (bluetooth manufacturers) is doing?

I agree completely. On my original tilt, you said "yes" right after the voice command confirmation prompt. With the Tilt 2 I need to wait about an awkward pause longer otherwise I get a call disconnected beep in the handset and the call does not go through. If anyone finds a registry value or other fix for this, I'd be greatly appreciative!
The text message announcements DO NOT WORK, but the email announcements DO! what's up with that?! can anyone explain this one to me? i even tried adding registry edits with no luck. i've tried several ideas and nothing seems to work. i believe there is a way to get it to work, as it does announce the emails as they come in, but i can't figure it out.
These issues are all because of the new Bluetooth Stack in Windows Mobile 6.5. MSVC is old and written for the old MS BT Stack. It will not be updated, so unfortunately what you get is what you get.
I have the same problem; incoming calls are announced just fine but text messages are not read to me as with my WinMo 6.1 Tilt. I really wish there was a fix for this!

Voice Dialing Application for HD2 - Available?

Correct me if I am wrong, but there is no built in voice dialing capability tools included with the HD2?
I would like to be able to (like I have with the last 2 HTC Smartphones) be able to voice dial a contact over a bluetooth headset or car unit....
Any recommendations, or is this feature hidden somewhere that I simply have to activate? If there is an app I can get, preferrably free, please advise. Thanks!
Microsoft Voice Command is probably the best out there... its almost uncanny how you can just talk to your phone and ask it stuff with no training.... Call blah blah blah.... what are my apointments? .... open file explorer.... etc etc etc....
I use it with a bluetooth headset all the time to make and receive calls all the time.... calls received will have the caller's name read to me via BT headset
Thanks, so nothing is included with the HD2 then correct? Is there a free version we can get for our HD2 here or elsewhere of Voice Command?

And that's on an HD2?
MSVC is pretty much the best out there...the other alternative is the Cyberon Speed Dial, but you do have to record for each contact.

Which MSVC version are you using?
I've been having strange problems with my Blueant Supertooth light and MSVC 1.6.
The problems are:
- My Blueant doesn't terminate the connection after calls, the lights and speaker just stays on eventhough the call has been terminated.
- No incoming call announcement from the blueant device.
- Sometimes when I press the call button on my BT device, voice commander responds on the phone's speaker??
Weird... I didn't have the above problems with my TD, although I never could get the incoming call announcement to work as well.
on the same lines, is there any application to type what you speak? This way we could use speech to text instead of using the keyboard!
It is a huge letdown that the HD2 does not already INCLUDE a voice dialing application like the past several HTC phones have had, for years.
HTC needs to step up the plate and both provide this and make sure that bluetooth voice dialing protocols are in place.
Has anyone used the Cyberon app yet? I believe the one is called "Voice Dialer" and the other is called "Voice Commander", not sure what the actual difference is or if either work fully on the HD2.
Hi. I'm using Cyberon Voice Sped Dialer on my HD2 and have set up my voice dals.
However, when I go to use the voice dial I only every get the 'tone' through the phone speaker and no longer through my BT headset. I have a Jawbone 2 BT headset.
My Touch HD worked fine with it and you could dial using voice through the headset but I no longer can on the HD2.
Is there a way to fix this? Do I need different software or is it just one of those things?
Thanks.

Hi,
Im having the same problems with my HD2 device. I have a parrot bluetooth carkit and with this new device it doens't work like it should because there is no voice dialing.
I've tried several programs like Microsoft Voice command and other voice command programs like VITO voice command and Cyberon.
Is there any program that just looks like the voice dialing on the HTC Diamond? I just want to record my own voice and use it with my bluetooth carkit.
Thanks,

The problems with bluetooth is down to the HD2 using a widcomm bluetooth stack as apposed to a microsoft one. I personally havent found a voice dialing app that will work with the widcomm stack.
So what do we do now? I really love this phone but this is a huge problem for me...
Good question.... experiment!? E-mail voice recognition manufactures?
I have cyberon voice speed dial 1.2
I cant get it to work through my BT but I have sort cut on home that I press and it opens all my progs and dial contacts, one of the best things about my phone now I love that it opens all my programs...
I used to have a n95 and this put an auto voice tag on each contact and worked through any BT, shame the HD2 hasnt got an app that can do that ... and open my progs..
I'm also still waiting for a solution.
I have 2 bt handsfree devices on my 2 cars (Parrot and Blueant)...and MSVC only works for the first try after a soft reset.
After the first go, MSVC just goes thru the phone's mic and speaker. Very annoying when you still need to hold the phone up while driving AND you have a bluetooth handsfree device.

Is it possible for someone to cook a ROM with the MSFT bluetooth stack? Or is that too hardware/driver dependent?
You guys should check out the threat with the name: Voice Dial Removed! WTF?
Since I cannot post links yet I can't post the exact link but I'm sure you guys are able to use the search function on this website
Someone claims to have found a working solution for the problem, it's on the second page of the thread.. I'm going to test it right now
Edit: IT WORKS!! At first holding the call button didn't work for me, so I followed the instructions on the first page and now it works!!

Voice Dial Removed! WTF?
About to try it, hope it works with BT voice dial, if not then Duttys WM6.5 works as well as it can and includes the long press fix as standard.

To install .CAB according to order of their numbering.
Do not forget to put a tick in Audio-adjustments sets (' To reproduce system sounds on removed set ').
I did not check it by myself yet.
I tried to make ONE .CAB but did not find apropriate software.
Let's try this way.

I have succeeded to activate the CVSD with BT Headset button press with the "4_CVSD_1.2_build_61226_1_BTHeadsetFixed.cab" given in the mail above.
But I can not hear the Voice Tag of the contact from the BT Headset but from the speaker of the HD2 as a confirmation to my speed dial speech.
And I have to check the screen when dialing started if I am motocycling
Any proposal to fix that little problem?
