MS Voice Command... any good? - JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Accessories

is Microsoft Voice Command any good?

Voice Command has to be one of the best programs I ever installed. The ability to start and end calls without ever touching the phone (using Bluetooth headset) is excellent. There is support for controlling the media player as well as launching other programs / Web pages.
Now the down side. On the Universal, there are a few issues. First, Voice Command will not work from a bluetooth headset correctly with the screen closed. You have to have the screen open, or in PDA mode for Voice Command to work. Second, there is an issue with Voice Command not showing a contact correctly on request.
Other than those two issues, I am very happy with Voice Command and highly recommend it. For a program that requires no voice training, I think it is very good. The functions are limited but for the price, good stuff.

You need to place the "outres.96.dll file" in the "\Windows" folder. Follow this thread to download the file: http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=45221

No.
Well,
1) Speech is very quiet. Too quiet to hear unless you are in a very quiet room. A hack to improve this doesn't make any (noticeable) difference.
2) Speech recognition only works in a quiet room.
3) Don't work unless Exec is in 'phone' mode.
4) Contacts don't display correctly. Copying the res file doesn't work for everyone - including me.
5) Programs supported are not customisable - you have to stick with the shipped Microsoft applications. You cannot replace the Calendar or Media player with ones of your choice (PocketInformant and TCPMP spring to mind.). This is inexcusable.
6) Memory footprint. Large program, especially as 90% of its features are useless to me (see point 5)
In conclusion. I have now uninstalled it.

Its good fun for the show off factor =) and the res fix worked with me.

Hi,
I have played around with it but it's crashes my universal day by day.
Contacts are not shown, ok, but the universal gets so slow and crashes very often.
Other programs could not be started and so on.
I tried to deactivated from crash to crash another program which runs and after I deactivated the Microsoft Voice Command, system gets faster and all my problems has gone.... ;-)
Does anyone know if there will be a new version of this program which will work with WM5?

Please see http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=49147&start=25 there's a patch for M$V1.5 for WM5 posted by me there. Fixed all the problems for me, made it louder, clearer and more stable.
Regards.

Some tweaks may solve the problem.
I have a Cingular 8125 with 200Mhz CPU (reportedly running at 180Mhz only).
I use Omapclock to speed up PocketSNES, but it doesn't speed up the keyboard selector at all.
Also tried the Registry trick, but restoring the original Registry after installing Voice Command clears everything, settings, program icon... ... and disable Voice Command.
So it's not a good solution.
Finally tried to tweak the Registry (for generally speeding up WM5).
It's worked so perfectly for me.
The Keyboard Selector menu pops up in 1 second or less, almost instantly.
Before tweaking, even without Voice Command installed, it takes 2 to 4 seconds.
Here are the steps:
---------------------------------------------------------------
I.
Increase cache: Noticable effect on WM5.01. Use any registry editor:
* Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\GDI\GLYPHCACHE\
* Change 'limit' to 8192 up to 32768
* Close registry editor (Save)
* Soft reset
II.
Disable Animated Menu (I know, doesn't relate much with the KB selector problem, but it speeds up the whole system anyway)
Use Registry Editor:
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \SYSTEM\GWE\Menu,
* Change "AniType" from default 6 to 0
III.
Use any add-on that close the programs for real, not just minimize it (SPB Pocket Plus, or PHM Free Utilities, whatever)
IV.
Increase SD card access rate:
Use Registry Editor:
* hklm\drivers\sdcard\clientdrivers\class\mmc_class
* hklm\drivers\sdcard\clientdrivers\class\SDMemory_c lass
Change both BlockTransferSize from 64 to 128 or 256
(I use 256. Don't know if it make the reading/writing process any unstable, but so far no problem for me ever. Plus I have backup, so why worry)
V.
Affects WM5.0 and can increase overall speed up to 20%
Use Registry Editor to change from default 0 to:
* [HKLM\System\StorageManager\FATFS] CacheSize = 4096 EnableCache = 1 * [HKLM\System\StorageManager\Filters\fsreplxfilt] ReplStoreCacheSize = 4096
SOFT RESET
(For me, I did everything before Resetting)
PHM registry Editor can be downloaded from http://www.phm.lu/products
Good luck.
If that does not solve your problem, please tell. Because then I know that I might accidentally did something else that made it work

VGA vs AKU_3.2 (jwrightmcps)

Hey all,
Can somebody confirm that they have had the Uni working with the AKU_3.2 VGA files in the ftp site and jwright's 3.2 ROM?
I've been running the i-mate default ROM on VGA for almost a year now and decided to switch over to the new 3.2 ROM a few days ago. I don't use ozVGA but use the registry hack straight up with the VGA files and VGA system apps.
But for some reason, I can't get all my icons displaying. I've run sdkcerts countless times, hit the power button waiting for 5 seconds before soft resetting, done multiple reboots changing up the order of sdkcerts and vga file copying... I just can't seem to get it to display all the icons correctly.
I know that I'm missing my volume and my cel reception indicator on the top bar at the very least. I CAN see my wifi icons, clock and magic button icons. On another post I found somebody whose screenshot matched mine and the suggestion was to install the AKU_3.2 VGA files again. I've done that alot.
Any ideas would be appreciated. The Uni is significantly better at VGA.
Thanks.
Hmmmm, something strange is definitely going on... I've installed the original ozVGA cab now and even that has not worked. Same problem, it's not loading the top bar icons.... just like if I had not installed those 96dpi resource files into the Windows directory.
Can anybody confirm or deny that ozVGA works with the AKU 3.2 rom?
And mvrTrueVGA is the winner. Why it seemed to work and the other didn't is beyond me...
So I've compared all the files that mvrTrueVGA installs to the VGA files that are supplied in the AKU_2 zip. Essentially, they are all different (which honestly doesn't say much) but there are some interesting additions.
There are new files.
mismde.96.dll
trares0407.96.dll
Plus two interesting things. First off, I was using Total commander to search for all files that were *.96.*
It found two other files which had some interesting properties...
rires.96.dll -- this file I can see on my pocket pc but can't see it through activesync explorer
shellresapps.96.dll -- this file I can't copy from the PPC to look at it. Activesync complains that it cannot convert it.
Just some interesting info in my investigations.
Hi,
I wanted to try out VGA myself. Would it be too much to ask for a step by step instruction list for "beginers"? Attached files would also make it wonderful.
Thanks very much.
Me too wanna try vga with AKU 3.2 if it's totally safe .
www.jaml.com/MvRTrueVGA/
seems safe to me.
Been using it for a while.this is literally just a cab install, it even puts a toggle link in start>programs

Thanks very much. I did not even notice those. Keep the suggestions coming. VGA seems better now even though it is still small.
I copied the files: power, backlight, and microphone mui's to my SD card ran them and got a nice looking files without distortion, I copied the files as suggested to the /Windows folder and did a soft reset. But if I access the power, backlight, and microphone through the Settings Tab, I still get the old distorted image. Is this the way it should be? Am I doing something wrong?

Few unfixed problems in the kitchen

Ok, I decided to write new thread because most of the rom makers I pm to didn't answer me at all. Some kind of secrets or whatever. I think we should help each other to improve our ROM's but maybe I'm wrong.
I have some issues in my owe ROM which I can't really fix. Maybe someone will know the solution
1. Some ROM makers wrote in their changelogs that now CommMgr is really closing without being on the process list all the time? How?
2. I'm using EZinput keyboard 2.0.33633 full qwerty and two keyboards should be available: full qwerty and phone keyboard. Only the first one is present in the system (the second one now is standard MS keyboard instead of phone keyboard 2.0 EZinput). Why? I changed the EXT package many times to make sure it's ok and all the time the same issue...
3. Is there a working method to change system rings to wav? Every time I do it then they doesn't work. Do I have to change also some registry value?
4. Windows Media Player dosen't play any videos. I changed mHub and mHubVO into some other versions but still no efect. What else could be the reason?
That's all what I'd love to know to make my ROM better
Thanks in advice!
Ok, I see that non of the grate, admired here rom makers are going to help me. Sweet. Anyway... I made a little step ahead with problem no2.
I know how to manually switch between those keyboards using registry entries [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\HTC\ezsip]
CurrentSIP set to a00 is Phone Keypad and d00 for fullQWERTY. But still it's impossible to change it in menu (WM6.5 21725)
That's all I want to share with, maybe it will help someone. Should I expect some respond? I don't think so :]

Dude, about the comm manager, I don't know which version of comm manager are u using. But I got my comm manager working good n closing when clicked on x button. All I can say is don't use any new version like 2.8 or topaz comm manager. Use the 2.7.1.4 version. It's OG diamond comm manager n works nice. I'm using the same version.
Thanks buddy Actually I'm using 2.8.1. I will switch to 2.7.1.4 as u said.
The keyboard is still my biggest problem. I wonder what's wrong that I cannot switch between Full qwerty and phone keypad in the sip menu bar.

nope its not only that, u definitly need the touchflo package, but that package conlicts with wm 6.5
the only thing we can do is wait for HTC to bring out its first WM 6.5 rom for diamond2, then we can take the new touchflo or ezinput package from that rom

Exept of registry, is there any dll library or something responsible for that? Also when I'm in windows file explorere and want to copy the file from IS to main memory (I do tap on "Copy")and then tap on the menu to choose the location then it crashed.
Any ideas for soulution those two problems?
PS. One more thing I forgot... I used to have my clock and calendar to set up automaticly the date and time after HR but now it seems to be gone... Is it up to network type currently using? GPRS/3G? Or maybe some registry value?

Thanks dude but it doesn't work. I was trying with both, 0 and 1 to make sure but still no effect. Friend of mine checked some others 6.5 ROM's and it seems that it doesn't work in any of them.
I found out that automatic time and date set works only if 3G/SHDPA network is available. So this question is out of date.
If anyone find the solution with face down mute ring then please let me know.
Another issue that I was hoping to solve is contact list popping up every time after SR. So in titanium softkeys registry I changed SK1URL into HTCActionScreen. And now... HTCActionScreen popping up every time after SR. Any solution for that?

Call Recording, 2 way

Hello,
Looking on the internet, even on this forum, tells me that there are lots of solutions for this question. But... It seems to be all for the Kaiser. My question:
What is the best 2 way call recording software for the Rhodium, and which work?
Is there any way to record videocalls? Or is this just impossible?
3rd question, nothing to do with the one above:
I've tried to install the Xperia Panel interface on the rhodium. It works fast and responsice, but:
After installing the Media Xperience panel, and I tap on it, it stays on the media picture.
Choosing other panels needs soft reset.
After deleting of the Panel Interface, Manila 3D is *** up. Only Hard Reset works...
Is there any project to make it compatible without damaging TF 3D? So you can use the panels (Media XP for me) when needed, and close it again to use Manila again (or better, use them both).
Thanks for any response

that does not work my tp2. the availability of 2way recording is probably rom dependent. (i got a german t-mobile mda vario V)
Solution for you.
To enable 2 way recording just change:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]
"VocRecPath"=dword:00000002
and you'll be able to record with any software.
If you want to use WM6 native recording (WAW only, on \my documents\notes, manual activation: during a call hit "record" on call menu) create:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AudioRecording]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Voice]
"EnableCallRecordMenuItem"=dword:00000001
"AllowInCallRecording"=dword:00000001
Don't forget to turn off (and on again ) the device after you modify/create the keys.
Tested both on my TP2.

You should be lucky and everything should work.
You should not damage your phone if you create it
However keep us informed
Creating the DWORD works like a charm.... thanks for the tweak!
When it says dword:00000002, does that mean changing the "Value data" to "2"? Also, do I set the base to binary, decimal, or hexidecimal?
Thanks.
How to access the reg keys in Pro 2
Sorry for asking a dumb question but how in the world one can access the reg edit in TM-TP2?

To enable 2 way recording just change:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]
"VocRecPath"=dword:00000002
and you'll be able to record with any software.
If you want to use WM6 native recording (WAW only, on \my documents\notes, manual activation: during a call hit "record" on call menu) create:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AudioRecording]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Voice]
"EnableCallRecordMenuItem"=dword:00000001
"AllowInCallRecording"=dword:00000001
Don't forget to turn off (and on again ) the device after you modify/create the keys.
Tested both on my TP2.

I did that and it works perfect !
But, is there a way to change the default recording path "\my documents\notes" to something else ? Like puting it in the storage card...

[App][Beta] ACR – Auto Call Recorder (Version 1.1 – 22/6/2009)

ACR – Auto Call Recorder
First a Warning! This application is not legal in all countries/states. Check first before you use this software as you could get into serious trouble in some areas.
This Application does what the title says; it records your phone calls automatically. It automatically detects when you are on an incoming or outgoing call and then records the conversation to the folder you specify. It saves the call as a file in the format of [Direction] [FileAs] [Phone Number] [Call Length]
Installation:
Copy the cab file to your device and execute it but double clicking on it in a program such as Explorer/Total Commander/Resco File Explorer. You can install the program to either the device or the storage card.
Next go to your programs folder and you will see a new Icon for Auto Call Recorder. Click on the Icon and the options for Auto Call Recorder will be displayed. Once you have chosen your options click the Enable Recording button on the File Tab and close the Options Program. That’s it you are now automatically recording any calls your device has.
Options:
File Tab
This tab has a button to enable and disable the call recorder. The effect is not instantaneous as the Options Program has to communicate with the Recorder Process so when you press the button give it a couple of seconds to update itself. I didn’t include the options in the recorder process to conserve resources so this is the trade off.
The File Tab also contains a Textbox for the path to save the files to. Some example paths are:
"\" Records to the root path of the device
"\Storage Card\" Records to the root of the Storage Card
"\Storage Card\Calls\" Records to the folder ‘Calls’ in the Storage Card.
Recording Tab
The recording tab contains the setting for the file to be recorded. First is the Wav format. This is either PCM or GSM6.10 PCM is a ‘raw’ wav format that will use about 1MB per minute. I have included this format for devices that do not support GSM6.10. The other format GSM6.10 is a ‘compressed’ Wav format and consumes approximately 30kB per minute. Obviously this is the preferred choice.
Bits per channel are either 8 or 16 bits. 16 bits is the preferred choice but I have also included 8 bits for slower devices.
Samples per Second are the number of samples taken each second. This is a matter of preference/device capability. The choices are 8000, 11025, 16000, 22050, 32000, 44100, 48000, 96000 and 192000Hz. If you have a slow device then you are better starting from the bottom and working your way up by testing to see which the best is for you. If you have a newer device then it is more a choice of how much space you want to use as the higher the number the more space the file will use. Also your device may not support the higher frequencies so I recommend starting with something like 48000Hz. If you set the frequency to high you will get gaps in your recordings.
Read Me Tab
This tab contains a small readme file and some credits. No settings.
Uninstalling:
To uninstall Auto Call Recorder disable recording in the ACR options first before uninstalling the Cab.
Devices:
This programs has been reported to work on the following devices:
Samsung Omnia, Sony Ericsson X1, HTC Kaiser, HTC Diamond, HTC Diamond 2, HTC Trinity, HTC Touch 3G, HTC Touch Cruise, HTC Touch HD
If your device is not in the list there is no harm in trying anyway. Please report back any success so I can add your device to the list.
Links:
.NET Compact Framework 3.5 Redistributable
Versions:
1.2 Available Here
1.1 Removed - Should be able to used by most non English roms.
1.0 Removed - First version. English only.
[App][Alpha] ACR – Outlook Import 2007
[App][Alpha] ACR – Outlook Import 2007
In typical XDA fashion you get not one but two for the price of none!
This is an application for Outlook that runs on Windows and not the PDA. Start the Application and put the path you used for calls on the device in the textbox and click the Import Calls button when your device is connected to the PC. It should then precede to imports all the calls from the device to Outlook under the contact used on the device. If it can’t find the contact it will store the call under ‘Unknown’. You can then use either the journal to look at the calls or open the contact and look at the ‘activities’ for the contact. To play the call just open the item and click on the link in the item.
WARNING! This program is far from finished. It’s only for those that don’t mind things going wrong. Also the program deletes all but the lastcall.wav file off the device when it has imported the files.
Anyway if you’re feeling brave and ACR is working for you then please do post any problems you might have if you try this.
It works on my Rhodium!
Thank you very very much!
I'll give it a try. Do you have some screenshots that you can post here?
Doesn't work with German ROM
Unfortunately, your program doesn't seem to work with German ROM. It always gives me a "directory not found exception", even if I use only "\" for the recording path. Maybe there are some language specific symbols hard coded? (For example, "Storage Card" is "Speicherkarte" on German devices).
Opps sorry I forgot not everyone in the world uses English roms. I can make you a German version pretty quickly if you can post the path for \Windows\Startup\ in German. I'll look into finding this path automatically via code in the next version though. Thanks for that.
\windows\startup in German
The equivalent to "Windows\Startup" is in German ROMs probably "Windows\AutoStart" (but there is also a folder "Windows\Autorun").
Thanks for your efforts!
Sorry I obviously can't test this. I look through the code and that was the only English string I could find. The installer adds some registry keys but I don't know if they would stop the program. Try this and if it doesn't work I'll get onto it tomorrow.
Not quite
Now, it accepts the path, but when you actually try to record a call, you get an "Unexpected Error in ACRBase.exe". So there seem to be some more issues...
I will be waiting patiently for an internationalized version, though

It doesn't go in italian rom too. When I start application, even if I dont' set directory where to save and leave the default directory, I get the error message "directoryNotFoundException". I've tried to look into the registry but I don't have found anything to change.
Any tip ??
gr8 work
is it support 2 way recording ?
This is one of things I missed most since I left my Palm OS Treo 650 for a Windows Mobile Touch HD. I was using a program called CallRec then. That program provided many advanced features including encrypted storage and very good noise filtering. You might want to check their site: http://www.qmobilsoft.net/Products/products.html.
Anyway, your program will probably fill the gap somehow, thankyou. I will try it now and report the results.
I just tested this app with a few calls and it works very good. Thank you very much.
it works with miri 6.5 Ver 16.1 - thank you for this app
crash
the application allways crash after call ends when i am calling numbers with files' chars unleglly such *123 or name such David C"F.

Doesn't work in spanish ROM (1.56.41.1) either.
The path is \Windows\Inicio
To store calls i created a new folder in micro sd named:
\Tarjeta de almacenamiento\Llamadas
By the way, one question: does it record every phone-call or onle the ones we wish?
Rgds,
NOT working with Italian ROM
Do not works with Italian Rhodius Rom. Is there any possibility to fix this problems ?
Could it work on the HTC Snap

I really need to be able to play an extended ringtone and it seems the Blackjack II had a registry tweak to handle this. That tweak doesn't work on our TP2s tho.
I am honestly surprised more folks haven't inquired about this.
do a search on this forum for "NoRingToneLimit" - it is .cab file and it works.
I searched the forum and did not find any hits, so I did an advanced search which took me to the archives.
There is a reference to a fix for 6.1:
mikefordmustang.com/downloads/NoRingtoneLimit.cab
Can anyone confirm this works for 6.5?
Found this as well but I haven't tried it personally. Seems easy enough to test though if you want to give it a go.
- Go into HKEY_Current User > ControlPanel > Sounds
- Delete the key of FileSizeLimit
- Done, You should now be able to set any MP3 as your ringtone.

That is the same tweak I found on a google search that was said to work for the Blackjack II. There is no such entry for WM 6.5 on my gsm TP2.
I did add the entry, using a larger value, and it did not work for me.

I tested this on my gsm TP2 on WM 6.5 and does not work. It will only play 20 seconds of a lengthy mp3 file on local memory. Still looking for a tweak/fix!!

You might have already tried this, but did you search your registry to see if that key existed in some other location maybe? I have 6.1 or I'd go look myself...

You know, I did do a search, but it just occurred to me that I searched for files, not strings within the registry.
I am going to do a search on both FileSizeLimit and NoRingToneLimit as strings and see what it comes up with. Total Commander is proving to be invaluable right about now!

I do like TC and can't deny its swissarmyknife-like utility, but for when I just want to zip around in the registry, I like the look/feel of PHM_regedit better.
thx for the tip! i'll look into that ..
Use ceregeditor and browse your phone registry form your computer making it 100 times easier.
so I grabbed ceregeditor and yes indeed, it makes it sooo much easier to search/edit registry entries.
so ... my findings:
Installing NoRingtoneLimit.cab did put an entry:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ControlPanel\Sounds:FileSizeLimit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
The default Value Data was set to 0 .. this did not work.
I increased the value to a high # .. i saw 10487200 as a possible value when I found the blackjack ii tweaks .. that too did not work.
Im guessing everything Im doing works just fine for WM 6.1 .. but nobody has figured out why it doesnt for 6.5. I hope there are others out there with more insight into this. I really dont want to go back to my old phone when I go OnCall this weekend!

It works on my AT&T Tilt 2 with 6.5 - Have Hallelujah Chorus (eleven minutes) as a ringtone.
well now i'm bummed even more!
i am going to uninstall the .cab .. reset .. and then re-install .. and reset to see what happens.
iv'e tried different things to come up with a solution and nothing appears to be taking: repeat notifications, filesizelimit, notificationlayoutnew.dll ... i get zilch on each!
wow .. 11mins!
well i am just so frickin' dissapointed in this thing now. i just cant fathom as to why a GSM model would be that much different than an ATT Tilt2.
I guess perhaps using one of the many available ROMs on this site could help? Any advice, anyone?
And that made all the difference!
It finally works!
I knew there had to be something weird about my setup that was causing this not to work for me. I was timing the length of the ringtone and while the longest was at 20 seconds, there were times when it was a little as 10.
I started thinking that perhaps something was intercepting or disturbing the process that killed the ringtone. I never thought to uncheck DISPLAY MESSAGE ON SCREEN.
This is what made the difference. Once the txt message screen timed out and disappeared, the ringtone died as well. Unchecking it allowed the ringtone/vibration to play fully. WHEW! I swear, of all the things to check last ... when will I ever learn!

Hahaha congrats! I was trying to figure out what the heck could still be keeping you from playing them properly, and I honestly wouldn't have thought of that either! I bet this will lead to a lot of "a-HA!"s in RhodiumTown tonight! lol
