VC and XDA Live .1

[chrisryn]

Has any one got MS Voice command to work on XDA Live... I can't get 1.5 to work and really don't want to spend more money to upgrade to 1.6 anyone know why it won't work. It gives Error at start up. Also does anyone know how to get the threaded sms off of my palm treo705 to put on my hermes?

I had the same trouble with MS 1.5 in the AKU 3.3 upgrade and when I went to MS 1.6 it worked. MS 1.6 works fine in the XDA Live rom. I am afraid you may have to upgrade.

I have installed it and It does activate VC but only through the device mic not through the headset. What is strange is that on my Wizard with WM6 VC1.6 worked perfectly straight away.

Can anyone post the Cyberon Voice Dial cab. I would like to try that with my Headset Thanks

Same here the headset doesn't work but thats no surprise really it NEVER works..

I have even tried the old hack and all it does is crash with an error..

[drbowden]

As XDA-Live is a post AKU3 OS, you have to use VC 1.6 to have any of the capabilities. VC 1.5 only works up thru AKU2 ROMs.

I also am unable to get VC 1.6 to work with my headset, the XCSdM patch crashes on me (as mentioned in another post).

Here everyone, this file got my bluetooth headset to work with VC 1.6 in Crossbow on my old wizard. Maybe it'll work for you, I haven't tried it on the Hermes.

[eagle 1]

Unfortunately, the hermes has something different in its MS bluetooth stack and that's why there are issues with MS VC..It is even listed on microsoft that there are issues with the bluetooth stack for hermes and a few other phones.

I tried the Widcomm stack and it seems to work well with MS VC and WM6 on the hermes, but be aware the Widcomm stack is still in developmental stages...so don't complain if you find issues with it...but it works for me

Can you activate VC through the headset though?

I have the .9f BT VC hack from xcsdm which isn't working...... i have never edit the registry before manually but willing to do it as it looks like the error of the program is that it isn't saving properly..... where can i find the values to change?

[KevinBaker]

You shouldn't have to edit the registry with that fix. The fix is only for VC1.6, which is the only version of VC that is compatible with WM6. Think of it as when you updated to Windows 95, and your Windows 3.11 programs wouldn't all work - you're doing the same thing to your phone :).

For the record, I'm running VC 1.6 on the Vanilla WM6 Rom, using the XCSdM patch only.

[chrisryn]

Ok I got vc1.6 to sorta work the way I want it to. I upgraded to the widcomm stack and added the btfix hack listed in other thread. I can get vc1.6 to work with ptt button but not headset button. Hopefully this will be fixed with final development of widcomm. Haven't had a chance to check if all notifications come through bt or not.

[FU5 KONA]

I had to manually go in and ad a value to the reg in order to get the button on the BT to work as well as using the patch.....this is the setup.....


1. Install VC 1.6 (make sure it is in Main memory)
2. Download Bluetooth Voice Command 0.9f.cab
3. Download BTVoiceCommand.exe
4. Create the Folder \Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command
5. Copy BTVoiceCommand.exe into this folder
6. Run .9f Hack
7. Go to newly created BT Voice Command config (in Programs) and tick off the check box "Enabled"
8. Set command duration to 30
9. Set or check that the following registry keys are set (I had to manually change Path to BTVoiceCommand.exe.)
10. HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path = "\Program Files\Bluetooth Voice Command\BTVoiceCommand.exe"
11. HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\VoiceCmdDuration = 30
12. HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Bluetooth\AudioGateway\BTA GExtModule = "\Windows\btagext.dll"
a. (For reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=283412&page=7 )
13. *Go into the registry and set HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\ LaunchAPEnable to 1 (I wasn't sure if this was necessary...but it's working now)
14. Soft reset 8525
15. Delete Headset Pairing
16. Recreate Headset Pairing.
17. Set Side button to VoiceCommand
18. Reset Device



Thanks tp BKBrolier for posting this! The red section is what I had to manually add....once added I was flyin high!!!

I have been working diligently on getting VC to actually WORK. The reg edits above will work with the 0.9f patch.

I am creating an new version of the BTAGEXT.DLL file that will work with VC the way it was intended. I'm getting close, but I'm hitting a couple difficult areas, so I'm not giving any ETA yet.

However, WHEN I'm finished, EVERYTHING will work as intended, commands, notifications... you name it. even caller id :-)

Bravo, xcsdm! Look forward to the update. I have to be sure M$ VC 1.6 will work before I go to WM6.

Thanks for all the efforts working to get VC 1.6 working through BT headsets. I am awaiting my new headset Plantronics 665. However, I have installed VC 1.6 and mainly want to use it for incoming voice notification of person ringing. This always worked out of the box before. I have ticked all the right boxes under settings (Ticked) Speak notifications through device speaker or wired headset only and (Ticked) Announce incomming calls.

The phone rings, vibrates but not VC announcements of incoming call. Thanks for taking the time to read and any ideas/suggestions welcome. Worked perfectly, well most of the time under 1.5?

I don't even get the shortcut in programs and btvoicecommand if I click it it just starts voice command.

Thanks for the patch working good so far. Let me know when you get the new btagext.dll done i'll test it for you if need be. Keep up good work.

[kyphur]

You are my hero man!!!

MS Voice Command is proving to be a real PIA to embedd into the Rom but We're probably better of not doing that anyway as tere are many who don't user or want it :eek: (yeah I know) and even a few who prefer Cyberon's Version....

I can't even get VC 1.6 to work when I assign it to the PTT button...

I hold the button in, but it will only make the noise like it didn't hear what you said.

Any ideas?

same exact thing here...

[GliTCH82]

Did you install the PTT fix? Look at the issues and resolutions thread for XDA Live

[TheFuzz]

I have it working well. However, it does not announce my incoming calls like the older version did prior to upgrading to XDA Live .1

Any suggestions?

Any progress on this? Just can't wait for you to finish it.

Thanks

[mkent_barbados]

I too am really looking forward to this, anyone know if there has been progress? Thanks!

[radarweave]

OK this is super frustrating for me I have managed to do everything just by reading except my 1 goal, perhaps someone can point me in the right direction:

I recently got an 8525 from cingular and I miss my VC, in specific the announce in the headset of who's calling me. Here's my stats perhaps someone can point me in the right direction:

Cingular 8525
WM VI Black 1.2
Jawbone Headset
I can push the button on the jawbone and get the vc to respond, but plays all audio through the speaker on the fone not in the headset. How can I get this to pipe to the headset. Including the announce of who's calling me???
