Wired Headset mapped to voice command? - 8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Software Upgrading

if we can get the bluetooth headset then why not the wired headset?

I agree fully...i need the wired headset for my motorcycle...i need to be able to access voice command from my wired headset button. There must be a way to do this!

I've written an app to do this, but it's not released yet. One day... gotta turn it into something useful.
V

There are many people looking for a program that'll do it.
There is a program that seems to work for some (talk button detector), but doesn't for many.
When you release the program, where will we be able to find it, vijay555?
Thanks

If and when it's released, it'll be on my website. But it's likely to take a while because I want to mash it together with some other features and functions, and I'm writing some other intensive apps first.
What do you need the app to do, just launch another specified app?
V

Thanks for the reply Vijay.
The only feature I seem to need would be running a voice dialer application like Voice Speed Dial that comes with MDA, or Voice Commander, so that I can not only receive but also make calls through the wired headset. Maybe while the voice application is running, pressing the button again should close the application.

My original Cingular Rom had this function, so did another one i flashed later(can't remember specific). Sadly most Roms do not support this. Talkbutton seemed like the answer but didn't work for me. I also tried a cab from the Hermes section, but no success on 8125.
Perhaps someone could extract the files from one of the official Roms, or Vijay555 could, perhaps, share some info on this, when he is free, as he seems to be the only one that has this figured out.
Thanks in advance

I'm afraid I'm not in a position to share info on it right now, it's some R&D I did a while back but I haven't had a chance to chase it up further yet to turn it into an app. Once I do, I'll need to tighten it up into a more comprehensive app. I will do it though.
I'll try to look into it soon, maybe a standalone is possible.

i remember having a panasonic walkman, an old fashioned tape player, yet it was nice. one of it's best features was a remote with only one button, that reacted to long/single/double/tripple press with acordingly: reverse, pause/play, FF, REV. this was great, and times was like 1995? wish i could do it with wizard's talkbutton, i was hoping to find an app like this, but no luck so far. vijay, i really believe you can do this... and it has been a while since you last posted here, maybe theres been some progress on your work? (sorry if i sound demanding

The app works as far as I need to it to, but it would benefit from a single button driven "interface", eg one click = launch app, two clicks = close app etc.
However, I've been out of the scene for a few months, and will not be back until the New Year. After that I'll try to start getting back into research.
V

Good thing to hear! I'm waiting patiently.
Of course it is obvious but i'll ask; would it be customisable?
i know it would be easy to implement config for actions like launching other programs or closing specific ones... i don't dare to hope for something like sending messages to different apps like tcpmp that would allow to switch tracks or other things... i guess i'll try to figure it out myself, but with my poor knowledge of WM api it will be rather a disaster ;]

Freaking Voice Dialing....

I have tried searching, and haven't been having much luck.
With a phone as advanced as this, why is having voice dialing WITH voice-to-text recognition such an issue? My Verizon V710 had true voice dialing with back in 2004!
From what I've been able to garner, true voice dialing is pretty rare with the GSM market, but with a PPC phone, there should be some option.
Before the Tilt, my Blackberry Pearl had voice recognition, but it barely worked. What do I need to install on my Tilt (using the latest Dutty Tilt version TouchFlo ROM) to have this feature? It is beyond me why a phone nowadays would not have this feature....
Get microsoft voice command 1.6. It will let you run your whole by voice. Do a search and you might find a link.
i agree with angel-78. I'll add, if you act like that and dont want to ask questions nicely and dont care about your phone, maybe you should sell it and go find a more simple phone to use. this one sounds out of your league.

I'm not sure what your problem is, but if you don't have anything to add, why don't you go take a long walk on a short pier. What do you want me to say... pretty please, with sugar on top?? If I was mad, it was quite obviously directed at the makers of an otherwise great phone/OS, but apparently your 2nd grade reading skills don't cut it when trying to extract such information from a post.
...and when did I EVER say I didn't like my phone? I think it is just RIDICULOUS not to have some sort of hands-free calling that doesn't require training. Every non-PPC phone I've owned within the past 3-4 years has had it. For a phone in this price range, it is absolutely inexcusable.
I do not need a more simple phone. It's not like it's a feature that is there, but I'm not able to figure out. It's just not there. But you probably wouldn't understand anyways.
There. Now you can say my post was other than nice. Retard.

Hmmm, "you're" the one who can't spell "you're".... retard.
Thank God for the "ignore list".
Flapjack - I understand with and agree with your point. I don't know if it's a software or hardware issue but it seems that a voice recognition feature shouldn't be that hard to come by. I also have seen this technology at work on other phones, as with you, mostly Verizon Motorola phones. Seems odd that GSM phones wouldn't have the technology. Does anyone know why this limitation exists? To reiterate, I'm not talking about the voice recognition feature where you have to record your voice and use it as a tag. I'm talking about the enter-names-in-your-address-book-and-just-be-able-to-call-it-by-saying-the-name feature. I believe it's called SIND or Speaker Independent Name Dialing.
As with Flapjack, I'm not bagging on the phone. Mostly, I want to know why this technology is not available on phones like the Kaiser but exist on phones that are free with Verizon.
Was anyone able to trigger the Ms VoiceCommand from a Parrot kit ?
I have a Parrot CK3000 Evo, and the Kaiser won't launch the msvc invit
... while it does with a bluetooth heaset
At the opposite, my Blackberry 8820 works great...with the Parrot (else I still don't like Blackberry OS )
any idea?
Want voice dialing
I have also had it on my last 2 phones sony S710A and my old MOT V551. both GSM by the way. I have a hard time believing this phone would not have simple voice dialing. Does any one have a clear answer on this issue
The best voice dialing is Microsoft Voice Command v 1.6. I have used this on my Tytn and now Tytn II (Kaiser). Go to Handago.com and download and purchase this software. The accuracy is 95% and I have over 550 contacts. It also announces incoming calls by name (check the threads for a fix for WM6), can even read sms messages (careful who listens to these) and much more.
Best app on my Kaiser
Voice Command is the best retail package out there.
Voice Signal is much, much better than VC, but it's only OEM'd so you can't get it for the various Kaisers out there.
VoiceSignal doesnt seem to support as much spoken languages...
If MVC is so great, why is it not included as part of Windows Mobile? It doesn't make any sense...
Do any cell companies actually include the software in their ROMs? It would make a lot more sense for them to pay for bulk software and include it as opposed to us having to pay for it.
I mean, really... it's not like the voice recognition software that comes with other phones is free. They pay for it, we use it.
Voice command
I think voice command is not bundled with phones because of the few languages supported.
I'm italian and voice command is quite unusable.
I heard cyberion voice command support italian but I can't find it anywhere.
I agree with the first istance: it's very strange that a €800 windows mobile phone has not a voice recognition program. My old Nokia N70 does have and it works very very well.
It's the carrier/phone manufacturer's option to bundle VC, but MS is going to get their money out of someone for the software. For example, it's included on many Treo's, and I believe the Samsung i760 includes it. But then VZW or Samsung paid for that license and built the cost into the phone.
Well, the TILT does come with Cyberon Voice Speed Dial pre-installed. It works and not only allows voice speed dial, but voice launching of applications. MS Voice Command may be better, I don't know, haven't paid the money to try it.
Wish there was a way to select or adjust that synth/can voice. It's pretty rough.

awesome piece of software!
thanks alot man!
one question though, is it possible to map anything to the button on the handsfree? that's when i really need to use the voice command, when the phone is in the pocket and i have handsfree out. it would be little annoying having to take it out all the time to press a hard button.
any suggestions?

REQ : loudspeaker App/tweak for S730

If some of the app programmers in here are looking for an idea to an app/tweak for the S730 (or other phones), i have a suggestion :
It would be such a cool feature if, when you are talking on the phone normally and you decide to slide out the qwerty keyboard the phone automaticly puts the call on loudspeaker, and when you slide the qwerty keyboard back in it automaticlly goes back to 'normal' phone mode.
Fx. when you are driving and need to put in on loudspeaker its easier to slide out the keuboard. Or if you want to add an appointment or contact while talking to someone its way easier to just slide out the keyboard and start typing.
I really hope someone can code such an app. I would be a very happy little piggy
Is it even possible to mske such an app?
I dont wanna go around hoping for it if it's not possible
Same for Tilt. It can really be a bugger to answer. Sliding back to vertical seems to put caller on hold. Very dangerous to answer in car w/o bluetooth.
there's clearly something being called when you open the phone. it's a matter of figuring out what, putting a watch on it; then, when activated, making the necessary reg changes/api calls to do whatever you want. Obviously. Too bad I don't have a working version of Visual Studio.

Sure thing. Actually I had installed it on Vista. Something happened (I think with an SP upgrade), and it no longer starts; and I can not uninstall it.
Lovely, Vista. Lovely.
It's pretty easy to be notified when keyboard is out and incoming call is detected.. I guess, the harder part is to programmatically switch on loud speaker (without simulating menu presses). But, maybe it's easy, i've not touch the phone or RIL API yet..
Well i really hope that you Saman-cz or bigflavor or someone else could program it. It would be really cool. I used to have it on my Nokia Communicator and it was a great feature that i used a lot.
If someone makes it for the S730 would it work on other slide out smartphone as well?
just found out:
Hit Green Call button "long" (hold it for about two seconds) while in a call and it will toggle speakerphone.
great hint. thanks
Cool. Not as good as the keyboard app , but very very usefull. Thanks.

Idea for a Useful App - Anything like it?

I was curious if there is an app that will, upon pressing and holding a key such as the PTT key or end key, would subsequently end all running tasks, lock the phone, and put it in standby.
If there is such an app would anyone care to enlighten me? If not, I think there may be a market for such a thing. I could be wrong, I've been wrong before and I'm sure I'll do it again soon.
I tried searching xda with google and the xda search and didn't get lucky. Sorry otherwise.
I must confess that would be very useful. Not being a programmer i don't know if its possible or not. Any ideas anyone??
I have not come across such a function and all I have been looking for is a utility that will allow another button to put my tilt into standby (I find it a little difficult feeling the power button w/o looking)!
perhaps we should ask WAKU (creator of wktask) to see if he can import that excellent software into buttons. He has all functions available thru wktask such as closeall/suspend and he can add lock easily. he hasn't updated as frequently anymore perhaps more people should donate
Ill email him, to see if hes willing to do it!
I, too, have asked about this type of functionality. I'd love to hit the power button or the PTT button and have it close all apps (except for those in an exception list) and put the phone in standby.
The last time I asked about this the best reply was someone suggesting that perhaps a mortscript could be written to do it. I never looked further into it.
its possible, but i have never maked programs for ppc =/.. if someone has an idea, or if it is like c/c++ i can..
I use the excellent and free AE Button Plus.
I have a triple press of the ok button place the phone in standby.
(I have a double press of the ok button launch S2U2 to lock the phone and turn off the display but leave the GPS running)
pjam
Its definitely possible. All the individual components have already been done: You can remap the PTT button, , some 3rd party task managers have "end all" features, and software like S2U2 can easily lock your phone. Perhaps you could rig some sort of script to run them all, or find someone to program up a less jerry-rigged version. I don't think that the app would be all that popular, maybe the script is the best way to go.
I am fairly certain I can do this with an action sender & using one of the keyboard driver shortcuts (Short_Power.lnk). I will have a go at compiling a small actions send proggie & seeing if I can compile the kill arguments into it. I can definitely get you into suspend or stand-by, it's the killing of everything else that getting me. So far I can't get both functions into the same key press.

I Need Ideas - Raphael Programming

Hello all,
I recently started a course here at Purdue University on Mobile Software development (Windows Mobile).
I need some ideas for programs I should write. Please reply to this thread or PM me if you'd like.
I have experience with C#, VB, C++, and C, among other languages.
Thanks
Jason Flittner
how about a dedicated xda forum app?
How about a sports ticker. I'm still surprised there isn't one yet.
BTW, I think I saw a xda app when I was poking around the other night.
I'm trying to think of ideas but my minds drawing a blank...
Here's the XDApp
Gonna expose my nerdiness here, but you asked...
How about an app that accesses the D&D Insider online compendium of rules and data? Not sure what would be involved, but I'm betting that there's no API available, so it'll probably never happen.
OTOH, it would be nice to see a really high quality dice-rolling app that takes full advantage of the g-sensor and the hardware accelerated graphics...something that looks like dice inside a tumbler, you know? Maybe start with a really slick Yahtzee-style game, and build up to polyhedral dice for us game-geeks?
I'd be happy to provide you with some guidelines for building. I'm sure we could find you a suitably good graphics guy, too, if you're not up to that part (I could do that, in a pinch).
I want my phone to do this:
But until then, I would like to see an ap like Skype, but for mobile that will easily switch you from cellular network to VOIP.
I have two ideas:
#1 - I don't know if this is even possible, but an application that turns on WIFI and/or Bluetooth in a receive only mode briefly every few seconds and listens for user selected devices in range and then performs user selected actions.
The idea is that the it would use less power than leaving WIFI and/or Bluetooth on all the time, but when I get in range of my wifi router at home, it turn WIFI fully on and sync my phone. Or when I'm in range of the WiFi at work, it could turn my ringer to vibrate. Or when I get into the car, it detect my Bluetooth stero, connects to it, and opens the music player.
#2 - Probably simpler than #1, a program that turns WiFi and/or Bluetooth on automatically when the phone is plugged into a charger and then performs specific user defined actions, similar to idea #1.
I don't know if programs like this already exist, but I haven't found them.
Dylan
I like these ideas, please keep them coming. I am not sure what the requirements will be as far as our programming projects are concerned but from what I understand I have alot of freedom in project choices!
I am in another robotics programming class working with the iRobot Creates and I was thinking it would be really sweet to program something that could allow the 2 to interact in some way/shape/form!
I am also very excited about GPS technology I wouldn't mind programming something that would utilize the GPS or triangulation!
Thanks for the contributions all, please keep them coming!
~JFlitt
With all that programing skill you could create some pretty neat apps.
Ive always liked the windows desktop interface.
How about a windows xp-like launcher?
Complete with movable desktop icons, windows, etc.
I am aware that wisbar advance desktop allows you to do this, but alot of those skins are a hassle, and they are not very complete. Plus they dont exactly take advantage of any 3d graphic drivers..
But anyways back to the point, with a windows xp desktop like interface it would be easier to use the phone.
I would not have to stretch my thumb all the way to the top left of the phone.
Oh and you could possibly utilize the touch pros capacitive touch panel for controlling the mouse.
You could also get google android working with more functionality. I am aware that there is work being done on it, but someone with so much programing knowledge could really speed up the project.(Im android crazy)
Or, if all that is too much to complete in limited time, then how about an application that will allow multi touch using the touch panel?
And also, resistive touch screens are supposedly multi touch capable.
I hope i gave you enough ideas.
Good luck.

VOIP
Hi,
I have an idea and it is possible.
how about having an app on your phone to configure your SIP provider settings in it ( 5 different proxy ) and then when you want to dial a number, you can right click on it and chose " voip dial ".
Skype already gives you a the menu for skype calls when u right click on your contact .
if you can add a menu to TF3D settings->communication->VOIP and we can add 5 different proxy in it and we can activate more than one proxy at the same time in order to RECEIVE AND DIAL voip calls from our phone it would be awesome since microsoft is not allowing this kind of apps on marketplace .
Tnx

a good "made for raphael" nes or snes emulator would be great since all the other ones out there are out dated and seem to work grat on old phones but are horribly laggy on the touch pro...wierd... the only good one ive found is a jap build of nester (nesterj4u) built for an hp phone or pda im not sure but the keyboard slides out to the right so landscape mode is upside down when i want to use the keyboard >_<
a good streaming media app thats a bit easyer to use than the one that comes with the phone would be great with some tv links on it like surfthechannel or tvdome would be great.
a youporn app to copliment the youtube app would be awsome
hmmm a good compass that simply points north (true or magnetic) with degrees would be awsome for when i drop mine on the roof trying to point my sat.
a simple freeware level would also be awsome since ive only found trialware levels so far
an hourglass would be a fun pointless app for when i get bored of pouring digital beer.
a goofy clip art picture editor could be fun just to mess with. maybe with some fish eye lens and carnival mirror opptions would be fun.
a free streaming radio app would be cool too....
sorry for the long list cant sleep ... figured the more ideas the better
ps. im not sure if any of these already exist havent checked lately so if anyone know if they do feal free to point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated
ok, I'm gonna try to have this make sense, but no guarantees. how about a simple titanium plugin framework? something that **doesn't** use mortscript? as mscript is good for certain things, it's not for others. this way there is an easier way for developers to make new plugins for it without having to use a slow scripting language. does that make any sense?
How about a talking GPS
I was out on my mountain bike today. I have a Garmin unit on the handle bars for navigation and listening to music from my Touch Pro in my pocket.
I was riding a fast downhill section through the some trees when I realized I was taking my eyes off the trail to make sure I was still on course.
I've used this http://www.basicgps.co.uk/ for Geocaching but it can only take you to one waypoint at a time. You can't use it to follow a route.
How about making an application which can steer you along a route using voice commands.
(Tomtom and others can only do this on roads, not off-road)
mixture of gps and accelerometer
well can u create an app the tells u ur speed while u are travelling like there is one app which does it in i phone it uses motion sensing and gps there are apis for both you can code it in c# with .net fw 3.5 and if u require help i am available i too know c# .
sound control
What about an app. that would control all of the sound feature such as the ear speaker,speaker phone speaker,and possibily microphone independitly,like bass,trebl,vol. That way a person could tailor the phone to sound the way they want it to sound when they are talking on it or whatever.
Just a thought.
Programing Ideas
A project that I have been toying with is a "Now" button for the calendar. Those of us in consulting need a simple and quick way to insert the current time in the Start Time and End Time field, which ever is selected. I've not been successful so far.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
HARDWARE: AT&T HTC FUZE (Raphael)
Hard-SPL: AT&T
ROM: AT&T
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
How about that app the iPhone has where you can transfer contacts by putting the phones next to each other and shaking it to transfer or sliding it across to the other phone.
All for now will think of more
*edit* Forget this its kind of pointless when we can send contacts via sms/IR beam
How about the ability to use our Fuze's as remote controls like you could with PDA's, open your garage door, turn on your 360 or TV, forgot to turn your laptop off, send it a signal to shut down from anywhere
There're some cool applications on Android. One application changes the ringtone based on GPS location. It sets ringtone to loud at home, lower the volume in office and automatically sets the phone to vibration when you are in a theater.
Another application is about setting alarm based on location. You can set an alarm about buying some stuff in a store, next time when you pass by the store, alarm goes off.

FM Recording on Xperia X1

Hi all,
I have searched the forums, and tried a few apps and I haven't been able to find a solution to this - I was wondering if anyone else has or would want a way.
I like to listen to the radio to hear up to the minute local news, interesting local programming, some good new music and regular local humorous/comedy programs. And sometimes while listening to these I may get interrupted or may hear something I'd really like to share or refer to later - so in the past I'd just click the 'Record' switch on my MP3 player and then replay whatever I missed/saved later. Sometimes I also hear a good song and I'll record a few seconds to get enough of the lyrics to Google it later.
Knowing the X1 had an FM radio and WM6 I figured there must be an app out there to do this, the Samsung Omnia 2 apparently has this feature out of the box. I know some phones have the FM radio direct connected to the headphones/speakers, but I also know on the X1 has RDS and people have even found ways to use it as a TMC receiver on this forum. So I'm hoping there might be a way to record from FM - nothing fancy, not the full schedulers of the Chinese clone phones, but just some app that might at least let us hit a button and record a few minutes would be awesome.
Does anyone know how or if this can be done on the Xperia?
Thanks a lot,
Peter

Yes, I've checked many different programs and most that say they do record are actually Internet Radio stations and not FM. Actually when I clicked your link the first many results were already purple from when I searched it last week before posting.
One interesting thing I just came across is that Apple announced last week that their new iPod Nano will have 'Live Pause' functionality on it's FM tuner. That would be dream functionality for me, especially if it also included an actual recorder function to share the content later (which I doubt). But I really, really don't like Apple - and my X1 has let me leave my pocket digi cam, PDA, mp3 player and old phones at home and do it all with one device. It would be awesome if it could also record, even if rudimentarily.
99% of results you get with this search is either people who posted asking and were ignored, Internet Radio apps, info on clone phones or mp3 players or Call/Video recording software.
Thanks for your reply,
Peter
i used to have an ATOM exec that FM record function
go to their sub forum and see if you can get someone to make you a cab of their application. it might work
after this is done the next step would be is just to create a calander reminder to remind you to record

Thanks man, I'll do that . I'm ok with not having a scheduler attached, though it'd be nice. I'd really like to have the ability to hit a button and record though because sometimes there's some useful stuff on.
For example today they had a financial analyst on talking about GICs vs. Stocks vs. Bonds, etc..., and giving advice to someone on a situation almost identical to mine and he made some interesting points I wanted to remember to research further - luckily I was at home and had an old mp3 player that could record, but if I was out I'd just have to try to memorize it and probably end up just with confused recollections if I even remembered it at all. Missed a lot in the time it took to find the player though - just starting it from the Xperia - that would be awesome .
Thanks,
Peter

I spent a couple of fruitless hours trying to find and fm_radio.cab or similar file for the Atom Exec - no luck, though a Chinese board seemed like it might have it, the page gives an error in Chinese when I tried to read it - either that the post doesn't exist anymore or you have to register or some such thing.
I found a couple of other FM apps that work, mostly for the HTC Touch HD and similar devices. I found about 3 others that don't work, giving various error messages about missing files or the Radio failing to power on.
I eventually searched for fmradio.exe and found this:

A lucky hit - "From O2 Xda Atom Exec..." - fmradio.exe + some dlls. I tried this on my X1 though and unfortunately I just get the message: "FM Radio requires Stereo Headset to be connected to function." I do have my headphones plugged in though. No idea if there is some way to get the app to bypass this check to see if the rest of it will run. It may also have something to do with where the dlls are - I just put all the files in my main Windows directory - no idea if they should be somewhere else, or if I should leave my original files as well. My X1 Radio is broken possibly from my previous 7 other apps tried - so this app might work if tried with a fresh flash.
So close
No luck, I flashed on WinMo 6.5 and then back to WinMo 6.1 with Jack's ROM - but I can't seem to get the O2 Xda Atom Exec FM Radio app to run. It just says that there is no headphone in the port. Is there a way around that or could I be missing some files? Or maybe I put them in the wrong path?
This is only one way to attack the problem - any other suggestions or ideas would be good as well.
Thanks,

A friend of mine lent me his Omnia, which can record with a click. I got all the files, but unfortunately it just gives an error that it is missing files or a trust certificate. I found the fmradio.dl file was hidden in the \Windows directory.
I found some other fmradio.dll files online for various Omnia models, but still no luck with those. It may be that they are not the right file for this program, or they are incompatible with the hardware. It's too bad I can't at least run the program, and then find the FM doesn't work. That would feel more satisfying then it not working at all.
So, so far no luck. Unless the creators of Power Radio here on the XDA forum do infact add FM Recording to their application...or we find another way?
Has anyone been able to find a way to do this on the X1? Or maybe perhaps the circuitry or software is different and it is possible on the newer X2 hardware?
Thanks!
I'm thinking, if it were possible, there would be an app for it. It's probably a hardware limitation of the X1 just like call recording. The output of the radio may not even pass through the CPU/chipset and goes straight to an output.
