After installing newest voice search (voice actions) in DK17, this worked for me... however, after upgrading to DK28 it no longer works. WTF?

:( Yeah my jawbone also doesn't work for voice dialing, but worked fine on my old pos "dumb" phone.

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

I am having the exact same problem. I called Jawbone, and they have had problems with samsung. my jawbone worked with voice dial on my EVO with 2.2 no problem. I am wondering if there is a fix for this that the devs can tackle.

I never had this working even with the voice update. I have the Plantronics Voyager PRO Headset. Has anyone else ever had voice dialing working???

It worked for me on DK17 (Quantum before 2.0) but not on DK28 (Quantum 2.0 & 2.1 - haven't tested newer yet). I asked in the Quantum thread if any known changes may have affected it (& audio out from the Samsung docks) but got no response.

I would also be interested in getting this working in froyo, or at least understanding what makes it work in DK17. Anyone having this issue I promise you its not your headsets, it the roms.

I pulled all the bluetooth apks and the voice dailer apk from the /system/app in quantums 1.5(working BT-voice dailing), and then pushed them to /system/app in various dk28 roms I had installed, with no luck. It didn't brake anything, but it didn't enable BT-voice dailing.

My guess is there is a lib file missing, dk17 has a bluetooth apk that isn't present in any dk28 roms, "BluetoothPBAP.apk" in /system/app. Its the apk that I think may need a lib or other associated files.

I ended up going back to di18 for now due to the current froyo bug causing failed call connects. I make calls all day long(i know its strange, but I for one use my phone as a phone =D), and I was getting 15-20 failed call connects a day on froyo and it was driving me crazy.

Perhaps someone else can push the dk17 files to a dk28 roms, do some debugging and see if its a missing dependency and if so, which one.

PS, interesting that vlingo allows voice dailing over BT, i'll have to try this one di18, would love to have that functionality.

ps

Here the download link for quantum rom 1.5(the last dk17 verson)

I thought is was strange also, later i'm going to look in Vlingo and see what's in it I can make it work on Viper Rom. (best out there, thanks to Viper team) As I said i'll report back when I get time to do it.
