View Full Version : Parrot CK3100 Voice Dialling

I have a Parrot CK3100 Car Kit and an M5000. I used to have an M2000 and when I pressed the Green handset on the handsfree car kit, it let me use the voice dialling I set up within the Parrot. With the M5000 it takes me to the PDA's own voice dialling, which I don't have set up properly, and tbh I don't think is as good.

Is there a way I can make it use the Parrot not the PDA? One thing I've just thought, I upgraded the firmware on the Parrot, maybe that wiped my phone numbers from it, along with any voice dialling. Would it then default to the PDA's own method?

The last question. If I get MS Voice Commander, which lets you voice dial anyone in your contacts, or open any applications without having to record your voice in advance, is it possible to get the voice dialling to use this? This is obviously the best thing as you can dial literally anyone without having to pre-record your voice.

Do you mean its firmware? I think the latest as I've used the update tool with my laptop on it recently.

Hi Andy,

I've also got the Parrot CK3100 and the M5000. The Parrot has a menu option (I think under advanced settings > voice control) to choose between Parrot or mobile device for voice dialling.

Without MS Voice Commander installed you will need to train each voice command on the M5000/Parrot. However I have MS Voice Commander installed on my M5000 with the BT registry hack:
Fire up a registry editor
Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand
Modify the string marked "path" from the default \Windows\SDDialer.exe to \Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe

This allows me full voice control (without training) for applications, dialling etc. I do have some isses with background noise when using MS VC but that's cause I've got a small car and it's noisy inside. Also the BT link and MS VC don't seem to work perfectly together as the speakers usually get un-muted when you have to respont (only muted when MS VC speaks or beeps) to the MS VC prompt which if you have the stereo on at that time causes more background noise. I find with the stereo off I get about 90% accuracy.

Also a handy tip I found in the Parrot forum here:

Get Pocket Informant which can send all you contacts to the Parrot in one go, read the post for info. Works for me.
