[REQ] Tethered Google Voice Use - Windows Mobile Software Development

Google just made it possible to place calls from the Gmail interface using your Google Voice number. I live in an area where my reception sucks at home... I would love to connect my Touch Pro 2 to the USB and have the audio/mic data route into the phone as opposed to the speakers/desktop mic.

Voice dialer

Just installed Cyberon Voice Dialer v1.2.3 build 110421 from the Market. Works very well with voice tags via a BT headset.

nice one, i bought the other Cyberon app Cyberon Voice Commander, hope it works as well as the dialer. the thing is that im now stuck with a huawei u8300 and it doesn't work as i want it to.
I don't understand why when our phones already have 2 good voice diallers 1 from google and one from samsung (both powered by vlingo)

Maybe I didn't spend long enough with those apps. What I want is to hit the button on my BT headset, say the contacts name and have the phone dial it immediately without going through any further steps. All this via the BT headset. I could never get this to work on the HD2 (the mic on the phone picked up the sound, not the BT headset) but Cyberon Voice Speed Dial on the SGS2 works perfectly.
Can you do that with either of the 2 included apps?
afaik yes, but I will dust off my old BT headset and check
I can also confirm Cyberon Voice Speed Dial works via bluetooth. Vlingo also worked but you couldn't hear confirmation through the bluetooth headset so was a bit hit and miss / hit and hope its calling the right person. CSVD worked great on Windows mobile and does a similar job on Android.
Does this phone support offline voice dialing as symbian phone does?
THANKS for the incredible recommendation on Cyberon Speed Dial. EXACTLY what I was looking for!
I have a lot of foreign sounding contacts and the voice tagging is just like when I had my Palm Treo 600. Also works well starting up apps like Pandora, SMS, and Maps
HIGHLY recommend this app.
Another important difference is the need of internet connection for the 2 stock dialers. Cyberon's products instead work also without connection
This voice dialer is really great, because you can record your own voice tag for each contact, instead to try talking like R2-D2 with the stock application. Unfortunately, I have one big issue - when I first installed this app, all works like a charm. When I double press the home button or BT headset button, Cyberon speed dial starts. Then I flash the phone with the latest firmware (KE7) and now when I press these buttons, starting the terrible stock application. I spoke with the tech support, but all of their suggestions doesn't work. If somebody have an idea how to make Cyberon as default application or to remove stock app without rooting the phone, I will be very, very grateful. Already tried in Application/Manage application to clear default values for stock voice commander, but clear default button is innactive (gray).
Same problem for me with KE7 firmware - can't launch Voice Speed Dial from the BT headset. Have tried uninstalling it, unpairing the BT headset, turning off phone then removing battery. Then reinstalled app and re-paired headset. Still doesn't work.
Have reported this to Cyberon and they responded "...recent ROMs don't follow standard process of Android's definition to handle the Bluetooth activation event. We're not able to change it at this moment, but have reported this issue to Samsung, and hope they will fix it soon."
Meanwhile the only solution I've found is to root phone and then freeze Voice command using AntTek App Manager. Then unpair BT headset > soft reset > re-pair headset. I now have Voice Speed Dial launching from the headset again.

Just replace vlingo with stock android voice dialer app from sgs or from cm7 with root explorer in system/apps.
Works without internet, you can hear confirmations in bt headset, no need to re-pair the headset.
Or use cyberon.
Attached the version from nexus s.

Is there a way to replace the 'double tap' from launching Vilingo to Launch the Cyberion Voice Dialer app instead? If so, i'll be so glad to know how!

Hands free BT issue

I just bought my wife a new S II to replace her old phone. Her bluetooth does not work properly.
The problem is only when she calls out. She will click on the device, and the phone voice asks her what does she want to do (Vlingo, even though I said Gvoice) through the phone, not the BT. Hands free on the BT only works if she receives a call, or calls last # dialled.
I've had the same problem for months now, I've never been able to find a solution.
I hate the built in voice talk, you cannot customise the voice and it doesn't even work properly.
I've just stopped using bluetooth in the car.

Calls with car dock..

Hey guys I have the official nexus car dock and was wondering if there's a way to get calls to come through the car speakers? I have a phono going from phone to stereo which handles music navigation etc fine but as soon as a call comes in it goes straight to speaker phone. Is there something I'm doing wrong or is there a 3rd party app that can handle it better?

Shameless bump..

The only workaround I've found for this is to use SIP calling, i.e. set up a VoIP account and use that for calls - everything is routed properly through the dock audio output. This is nicely integrated in Android / Phone.apk, you don't need a third-party app.
Forcing regular GSM voice calls to go through the dock audio output might require some kind of kernel modification, I haven't found anything in the AOSP codebase that would change this behaviour.

Setting up a VoIP account does that mean they'd have to call me on a seperate number or will it push it straight through to my normal number?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Correct, a VoIP account would be a separate number, but depending on the provider and the type of number you might be able to set up forwarding (at the provider end) from your regular number to your VoIP number.
easiest solution and future proof to boot: get a bluetooth headunit !
Have a Kenwood KDC-BT60U, a pretty basic model, payed 200 for it, and it rocks: can access latest incoming, latest outcoming, missed, phone book, plus it has A2DP.
Get a bluetooth car stereo. Or some kind of interface kit. Google for it.

[Q] Blue tooth App

Hi guys,
I have a Galaxy S3 running 4.1.1. I love it so far. the one problem that i am having is this. I recently bought a blueant Q2. it sync perfectly with the phone and everything works well.
My problem is that the native phone dialer requires a network connection. This is stupid since my dumb phones that i had for years did not. I would just say call X and it would call X.
Is there a app that doesn't require an internet connection to dial people that will start automatically when i touch my bluetooth headset?

Dragon assistant (There's a thread for it if not available in your country).
I tried dragon and it requires an internet connection to work even in drive mode.

What do you mean by older device? Like not android?
Androids run with Google, which of course uses internet so I dunno if there's an app that would allow it without internet connection. That's like having a AI on your phone.
all of my non-smart phones could do bluetooth dialing without connecting to the internet.
yet my smart phone has to connect to the internet. I don't want to blow my mobile data so i only use it when i have to.
i don't understand how a dumb non-smart phone can do something that a smart phone can't.
i have heard cyberon can do it i just didn't want to pay for an app.

Dunno how much data you have but I personnaly have 1GB and I never use all of it (and I never restrain myself from using the internet). Those voice search use next to nothing so you really don't have to worry about that.

I suppose (but that's only a guess) you would have saved a voice entry for all your contacts on your old phone, and the phone would match your query to one of the voice entries. And on Android, this kind of match is computed by a speech recognition server. That's what I would guess...

does the new note 10.1 have phone call function?

Thinking about upgrade from my note 2 to the note 10.1.
Does it have phone and sms function?
The SM-P601 (3G - Exynos) and SM-P605 (LTE - S-800) do...
I use my P601 as daily phone device (with bluetooth headset)
et phone home
before i bought my LTE version i envisioned myself being able to have my tablet in my backpack and have a bluetooth headset with basic remote controls such as are found on some of the plantronics and other bluetooth sets. Now with the samsung watches and wrist bands if they can be paired with the bluetooth headset so you can see incoming call and text information on the wristband/watch and answer calls by using that i think that will be the ultimate use of the phone feature.
maybe someday they will have a head set that has features like are featured in the movie 'her'.....which was pretty cool...good movie and worth watching by the way to see the future of electronics and how they will affect our daily lives...
You can put phone calling on any tablet, even wifi only tablets. How? Get a Google Voice number and then install Grove IP. I do that on my tablet and it works perfectly. Google Voice includes text messaging.

Slick. How well does it work when you're not around a Wi-Fi connection? Voice and MMS are just an added benefit to always being connected via 3G or LTE with a N10.1-14 so equipped.
Use hangouts with Google voice phone number
