Default Launch Voice COMMAND not Talk...

Is there anyway to have Voice COMMAND instead of Voice Talk be activated when longpressing search or pressing my headset button? Voice Command has so many more commands than the other one, and I find it simpler. I tried clearing defaults and reassigning, but the only two options that show up then when trying to reassign are Voice Search and Voice Talk. =[

Thanks!

Why do you think there is any difference in the available commands? I don't think there is.

Because there is. See for yourself.

Try setting, say, an alarm in Voice Talk - won't work. Go through the help pages, there's far less commands listed in Talk than in Command.

That's right. In Voice Command I counted 14 commands and in Voice talk I counted eight. For example, just try going to Voice Talk and say "email" someone or "open" some application. It won't work. Try the same commands in Voice Command and it works!

Ok. I'll be damned. Now I want to open voice command too :)

Here's what's funny. You can open voice command from voice talk by pushing the menu button in voice talk, but you can't use your voice to open it.

Sheesh.

Default Samsung epic 4g touch 2 it's possible

goto the android market and download, " bt app launcher". it is a bluetooth launcher for when your headset connect to your cell phone. the app is free. once installed it allows you to select the app that you want to start when the bluetooth device connects to your cell phone. you will see 2 voice commands 1 will be green and 1 will be blue with a line through it. select the blue 1 with the line running through it horizontally. now whenever your bluetooth headset connect your cellphone voice command will start not voice talk. unfortunately whenever press the button on your bluetooth headset or press to lunch button from your phone... voice talk will still launch . I happen to have a motorola bluetooth headset that allows the flip of the microphone which then turns on the bluetooth device connects to the cellphone, so this works for me.

I agree 100 percent. I posted here ,ATT fourm and android Central and go no reply. I asked my friend at aTT to check it out with Samsung. Knownone at aTT had a idea. I don't know why they just did not use Voice Command. You say comands on you bluetooth and you get Voice talk. (say Galaxy) voice tlak only works with bluetooth by default no matter what your setting are.( Blueant Q2 here.) Voice command does email and more but you have to lauch it yourself.
My other phone you just pushed the extra button on the side and say what you wanted. Both of these programs are Vlingo rograms too.
I will download the BT appy though
