[Q] Does the sensation do Voice Dialing

[dreaddan]

I've just orded myself a sensation but have noticed that theres seems to be a lack of info about if the sensation does voice dialing?

If it does does it do it so you dont have to be holding/looking at the phone?

If your contacts are synced with google just press and hold the search key and use voice search. If your contacts are synced with anything else go get the voice dialer apk from the themes and apps forum

sent from HTC Sensation

Cool, will that work with a bt hands free kit as well?

 

[xnifex]

maybe? there was a thread going around about that in the General forum & IIRC the someone found a work around.

Use vlingo

Never a straight answer

This man asked a question if his new highly expensive, state of the art, phone would do voice dialing.
If you intend to do voice dialing with bluetoth, it will not work. The only thing that may help is a blue ant Q2, which stores your contacts in the earpiece. You also need to have phone commands built into the phone software which I believe comes with gigerbread 2.3
I have asked direct questions in these forums and am amazed at the indirect answers that are given. always a work around. Why not just say this expensive toy will not hands free voice dial.
Sorry for the rant but some people dont even know what an apk is.

Look into the blueant Q2 jawbone also make the Era but in my opinion not as good

Thanks.
it does seem odd that new tech doent have something that was included in phones many years ago. Exp with more and more places requiring hands free driving now.

Use vlingo

Thanks, I cant see if it needs a data connection to work (some other apps I looked at required to send the request to there servers to work!)

Yes it does. As others todl you first you have to install "voice dialer" and then 3rd party "voice speed dial" program. My favorite one is "cyberon voice speed dialer" with that program i can assign voice tags to my contacts and all i have to do after pressing the BT button is call that name example "john" and it will dial the number i assigned for that name.
good luck

The sensation has voice dialer by default just launch the phone app and you will see a mic icon on the left

I tried a Samsung hm 3700. It was absolutely flawless on my g2x. Recognition and commands went smoothly. It just didn't have a2dp function though you can listen to music. Just no control.

vlingo for sensation?

whoever the moron is that keeps telling people to use vlingo for the voice dialing on the htc sensation is definetely an idiot as this app is not offered for the sensation and if you try to install the apk it will brick your device. i recomend you not listen to that idiot.

you must never have tried to use it or you would not have just showed your lack of intelligent thought. the sensation does not have voice dialing and if you try to use that mic to voice search in the phone app it will only search for the contact. it is quicker to do it manually. so before you post,please make sure you know wtf you are talking about
