Anyone know if Fonix's Voicedial works with WM2003?
VoiceDial
When I was trying it out, VoiceDial worked fine, but VoiceCentral & VoiceAlert seemed to have chronic problems.
The Fonix apps rock - and they keep you safe (and sometimes legal) while driving. I love the idea of building a pronunciation database rather than doing mindless training (Really - who wants to read to their Pocket PC?)

can anyone recomend a good piece of software for recording surounding sounds, and phone calls. notes seems to only record one side of calls. either or if there isn't one thing that will do both.
i tried a program called little snazzy drumer, but it seemed to disable windows media player permanently.
thanks
If you use the speaker, i expect it will record both sides of the conversation
try Resco spy recording SW the best i used so far
thanks for the advice. i'm checking it out right now.
VITO Sound Explerer is great, cehck it out:

I tried the vito software and it caused the same issue with WMP that the little snazzy drummer software did. Before install WMP worked fine. After install, opening, and making a few test recordings WMP would no longer initialise. Anyone have thoughts on this?
The resco software seems to be working fine.
but the speaker in PDA2K has a problem..
then how can i record calls?!!
please help..

Having just upgraded to WM2003SE 2.06 (SIN v3.5) ROM, i've found Bluetooth hedset profile to still not work properly with my Sony HBH-600. I can pair my headset without issue, however when i make calls the headset kicks in for about 2 seconds then passes the call back to the phone.
Can anyone suggest anything to try to fix this?
Bluetooth just wouldn't work reliably with the inital Windows Mobile 2003.
When I upgraded to Windows Mobile 2003 SE (based on 2.02t ROM), my bluetooth headset microphone didn't work (only the XDA handset), this was less than ideal. Now with the WM2003SE 2.06 ROM it's worse than ever!
All this just to talk to someone without a wire......technology, gotta love it!
Thanks for any help!
Can anyone help at all? Thanks
Found the fix
I think i found what my issue was, i was selecting yes to "hands free" profile, hence not getting the "headset" profile offer.
Once i selected the correct profile, guess what, it works now without any issues at all.
Stupid user error!
Hi,
Can anyone point me to some working Bluetooth Stacks for the XDAII that will run on the WM2003SE upgrade please.
My matey has upgraded his XDAII using Sin's merged WM2003SE upgrade (worked great for a Vodafone network!) and installed the MS BT Stack however this only gives partial results when using BT.
He is able to use the headset etc without any problems however when he tries to use the XDAII in his BMW (2005 model 320ci, built-in BT) he is getting intermittant results i.e WM2003SE connects with the car and the headest without a problem however there is a delay before the car picks up the phone when its ringing and on most occasions simply drops the call.
I wanted to know what other stacks are out there that may be worth trying, I have downloaded Toshiba's BT stack and the Widcom stack but I don't know of any others...
Advise much appreciated..
Godz
i too would love to know this.
BuMp
Me too! The widcom stack has a useless headset driver as far as I can read..
I installed http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=43210 but I am getting out of memory error.. It may be from a XDAIIi??? It also diod a hard reset...
FWIW, to those that have the BMW bluetooth, You will find the first time you make or recieve a call, you have to do it twice. IE dial the number, it will not connect, then redial and it works.
Same when you get a call, answer, it wont connect, then answer a second time and it will connect.
After the first call, it will then work as you would expect.
If you dial directly from the phone it will tranfer to the car kit, but not until the other party actually answers, you wont hear the ringing of the phone.
The big frustration is that although you get sound from the car speakers, I think its only the microphone in the phone that is working. So the other party may have trouble hearing you if your phones in a brief case or your pocket.
Hope that helps

Can anyone tell me if the translated chinese rom has these faults?
Has anyone used the Scala 500 bluetooth headset with the Wizard? If anyone has do let me know how it works. Thanks.
no loud enough imo
Have used it and no problems with volume. Have had to lower volume. Problem had with BLUE CAST 'tho (using B/T headsets). To listen to music with Blue-Cast, you must enact the program, and use the left-soft-key to toggle between ON and OFF. Once B/C is enacted, the B/C window obviates 'start' and 'today' screens. To exit the B/C window, you must close it. When the window is closed, the 'today' and 'start-menu'-potential are there, but the left-soft-key only enacts my 'calender' menu, so turning B/C on and off becomes a problem. Also, with my other phones, if I turn on the B/T headset, the phone almost instantly recognises the headset, but with the 8125, I have to run the identification elements on the phone to get it running. If an understanding mind reads this and finds I'm doing something wrong, please RSVP.
PS
With the BLUE-CAST program, my Cardo-Scala-500 and Motorola-HS820 receives all sound produced in the phone, including the programmed ringtone. Without the B/C program, I get a piddling little 'beep' in incoming calls, which wouldn't help in some of the noisy environments I work in.
Works great.

Thanks all of you. Just ordered my Scala 500! Let us see how it works. I hope there is no 'static' issue with Scala working with the Wizard. What is Blu-Cast? Now I am a little confused. :?:
Thanks all. Just got the Scala 500. Works brilliantly! Including all Bluetooth function such as voice dial etc.
Anybody using the SE HBH-DS970 bluetooth headset with the Hermes and if so what is your experience?
Thanks
i use that one waht is your wonder?
I wanted to know if everything works fine and if you are happy with the experience (sound quality, responsiveness, etc.).
I tried it briefly at a store and everything seemed to work except when I received a call I could not hear the person talking. It may just be that I needed to do a soft reset but if I know it is working with the Tytn for someone else I will buy it.
Thanks!
No Good.
1. Sound Quality is very poor even with the A2DP hack. Far from my M600i. It's much better with the original usb headset. so I guess maybe Sony Ericsson has a different A2DP encoding implement or have some tricks on the media player?
2. Only the Call Key and Volume keys work. I don't know if there any PPC music player support DS970's music keys.
1. After registry twiks the sound quality is super.. seems even better than native usb headset.. Only one problem I couldn't solve so far.. it is skipping every 40-50 sec. I am using now original rom from o2 germany. I am going to try imate rom or at least new radio rom. Let see, if it helps
2. All keys are working with native Windows Media Player.
I am using it with PocketPlayer. Works fine with every button. Sound quality is super after the hack. But I got the same problem as SWayf, music got skippy every while...
Multipoint Function with PC Headset profile?
Has anyone tried to pair this headset with a Hermes and simultaneously with a PC that supports the bluetooth headset profile so that it is possible to switch from VoIP (eg Skype) and the mobile phone easily?
Following on my previous post, I now have the headset in hand and although I can connect to my PC and phone simultaneously using the multipoint functionality, the PC connection is only for music playback, ie the microphone is disabled, so I cannot use the headset for VoIP calls. The Bluetooth Service Class is listed as "Audio Sink" rather than "Headset". I don't suppose anyone knows of a way to activate the microphone in this mode?

Really regret buying it.. Tried the A2DP tweak with the Hermes Tweaker but no luck. Better soundquality but sound keeps skipping every 30-40 seconds, useless for listening to music... I would got nuts having to listen to those skips that often..
Anyone found any tweak to get rid of the skipping problem?
Buttons works fine for controlling Tytn audio quality is ok and I love the looks of it, if I just could get rid of that skipping..
How sick is this! I found this tip on another forum.
Try installing this taskmanager, start wmp and then the task manager, close any apps you don't need to use and then set it to monitor system load.
http://www.iaccarino.de/silvio/ppcstuff.htm
As long as it's running NO SKIPPING so far, have been listening to three full songs so far....
Which of you gurus can figure this one out??? So it must be possible to fix the problem by emulating what this software does??
Any updates on this?
Considering buying one, but wont if there's no fix to the skipping
I've just bought one of these headsets. God, the sound is atrocious. Can someone please fill me in on the hack that was mentioned earlier? I've got the Fit4cat ap on my Hermes but the sound is still rubbish even after adjusting the the "improve BT A2DP sound quality" setting to "excellent". Is this the hack that was referred to earlier or is there another I am not aware of??? Please, can anyone help with this. I feel I have wasted a serious amount of cash on this

Hi!
Got hermes and ds970 to work (almost) perfectly
I did this, step by step:
-Hard reset hermes (got o2 xda trion with latest htc wwe rom 1.35 radio 1.18)
-installed ms voice command 1.6
-installed beta version from jetware and their hermes fix
(all files can be found here http://www.jetwaremobile.com/beta.htm don't forget to soft-reset after installation of the "code signing certificate")
-installed a2dpfix
-get HTweakC and set a2dp quality to "medium" do not set it any higher, as the sound quality will be better on medium than on e.g. "excellent"
Configure Jetware Software to show CallerID etc...
Working:
-CallerID shows name!! AND number (alternating) everytime
-A2dp quality is quite good (could be better, but definately very usable)
-Voice command quite usable (still rarely switches back to device speaker)
-very stable bluetooth connection
-remote control of windows media player
not working:
-display doesnt show song title, but i guess we'll never get that on a wm5 device...hope i'm wrong.
Wanna thank everyone on the hermes gps thread...keep up the good work!!
so you can stream media player to the headset too as well as controlling VC1.6? Does VC1.6 fire up when pressing headset button?
Hi!
When I'm listening to music, and press the headset button:
-Mediaplayer goes on pause
-after 2-3 seconds I hear the voice command ding-sound and can say my command. Then hear the lady from microsoft ;-) respond (on long responses the sound sometimes switches back to the device speaker such as when the lady asks me what number-entry to dial and there are 5 numbers in the contact.)
-then switches back to playing mediaplayer for about 2 seconds until the phone initiates the call and then pauses mediaplayer again and switches the headset to the call.
-after the call sound again goes to a2dp and the song resumes playing.
Hope it stays that way...I'll be very very carefull what programs I install.
programs I got installed at this point are:
spb diary
prssreader
navigon mobile navigator 5
google maps (the new not java one)
wakeitup
pocketstreets 2005
tcpmp
clearvue pdf
spb gprs monitor
totalcommander
+the ones mentioned in my post above
(all programs, if not mentioned otherwise, are the latest versions)
oh BTW I tried setting a2dp quality to "low". I can't hear the difference to "medium" and think it will be less stress on the cpu.
what does not work, is also that the announciation of new messages from voice command 1.6 when set to "announce only over bluetooth" still come out of the device speaker.
Hope it works for you, too.
excellent. i'll try these settings. thanks for detailed message
got myself a ds970 and followed your instructions Brevi. music streams brilliantly but i can't transfer calls to the headset,make calls from the headset nor can i get VC1.6 to fire up when i press the headset button. if i start VC1.6 on phone, then i can say command on the headset and that works.
Do you install the JetDial app?
What settings did you configure in the Jetware settings?
any ideas?
i have the "new" btagext.dll which fixed VC1.5 and mono headset - do you think that's the issue?
Update: Aha, i uninstalled the JetDial app (stupid or what) and now everything works except starting VC1.6 using the headset button. i suspect, JetDial has left some reg keys that need removing. No idea what though
Hi! Yeah, you probably need to do a hard-reset to get a clean install of all the little "helpers". I'm confident it will work then.
Tell me if you get the "play reminders only over bluetooth handsfree" option in vc1.6 to work maybe with the btagext.dll. I'm away from my main computer for a couple of days and unfortunately can't mess with my phone till I get back.
