Hi All,

O2 XDA Exec with SE HBH-300

I have done the registry tweak (http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Universal) so MS Voice Command works when you press the button on my BT headset.

It's so I can keep the Exec safe in my bag and use Voice Command to dial.

Works fine when lid is open and when the screen is in PDA mode even works when in sleep mode, but when the lid is closed the Voice Command melody bleeps but it does nothing.

So the workaound is put the Exec screen into PDA mode before putting in the bag.

Another bug after using Voice Command (lid open or PDA mode) you have to press the button on the BT headset to end the BT connection,

Only a potential problem for non phone call use as if you are using the phone it's not a problem as when you press the button to end the call it closes the current BT connection as you would expect.

And finallly any fix for trigging Voice Command when using the button on the corded handsfree ?

Thanks,

Jonathan.

What is PDA mode? I either turn it off with the off button, or just close the lid down? not sure which is which.

Also, don't you find voice command fills it with Bugs? I generally found it a pain in the ass and had to unistall. (killed Skype for instance)

PDA mode is when you have swiveled the screen so when the lid is closed the screen is facing out in like a tradditional Pocket PC PDA.
