Google voice search doesn't work with headphones - Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My experience:
- Provided headphones plugged into (Vibrant)
- Opened up google voice search
- spoke a command (navigate to.., etc.)
- Does not pick up my voice
I've searched on the xda forums and found no answer to this problem with regards to the provided headphones. I did find a discussion on a different forum at AF (android forums). And I'm curious to know why the provided headphones won't play well with Google Voice Search, yet other members claim it works with 3rd party headphones. Is this the headphones limitation for only call/end call? If anyone can discuss further about this issue it's greatly appreciated.

“Fake” a bluetooth call with RFCOMM

Hey Guys, I also posted this question on Stackoverflow.
okay, here's my problem: I am developing an app that reads out SMS while driving and therefore connects to to a bluetooth speaker (mono) using startSCO. However, there are some devices (especially car entertainment systems that lack A2DP functionality) that only react on calls.
So my idea would be to initiate a "fake" call (read: send the String with Caller ID etc to the device so it rings) and - if the user "picks up" the call - then send the normal output with the VoiceCall Stream.
As Android supports RFCOMM, this should be possible I guess. However, I can't find any information about this particular topic on the internet.
Would you say it is possible? And if yes, do you have any information you can share with? Like how to initiate the call and so on.
Thanks!

Sure ^^

But I think this is SDK8+ only, before that there is a function called AudioManager.setRouting or something like that =)

[Q] Voice commands not using bluetooth mic...

Anyone else have this problem? I've tried 2 BT headsets (Moto H710 & Blueant Q2) and multiple apps (Vlingo and built in voice dialer). Have no problems when in call or using media with my headsets, but their mic isn't being used for input on commands. Vlingo is even properly playing the commands through the heaset, but still uses the phones mic. This worked fine on my OG Evo 4G. Any suggestions? Thanks!
*Edit* All stock, no custom ROMS or root
Your just pushing the call/talk button correct? I've used both my Moto Finiti and S305's and both respond to the voice commands through the Bluetooths Mic.
Maybe unpair and re-pair Bluetooth? Can't think of much except that there may be an issue with Bluetooth from the general forum. So maybe there's an issue with the software right now.
Edit: I've only tried using voice commands and google search for voice from the phones software, not an app. You may need to wait for the devs to update their apps to have it work with our new beasts.

I'm also having the same issue as original poster I've tried with normal google search, vlingo, and also skyvi with no luck inputting voice through headset and them only working when using through the phone. Any suggestions to try or solutions?

Google Voice Search with BT

Dear all,*
I got a new radio in my car, which allows me to connect it to the S3 via Bluetooth and to play music, to call etc.
It gives me also the possibility to do a voice search, but at the moment, S Voice starts when I'm doing this.
Is there any possibility to use Google Voice Search instead?
Many thanks in advance for your answer.*
All the best to you all,*

Converting Media Audio to Phone Audio

Hi everyone,
I have an issue which I have seen in other forums and is driving me crazy. I recently installed a Dice Mediabridge in my car and when I am using it in Sirius mode with the phone connected to it via bluetooth the music will be interupted whenever there is an incoming phone call and won't resume until the call is ended. However, if I am in Sirius mode and using Google Navigation, no such interuption occurs. I would believe that this is because the Nav is considered Media Audio, which is not programed to interrupt the way that phone audio is. Is there a way to trick the phone into sending the Navigation voice audio through the phone channel instead of the media channel? I mean yes I could simply use a separate bluetooth headset in situations where I need to use the Nav to go somewhere, but it just seems to me that this integration should be easily possible but it is not. Thanks in advance !!

I definitely realize this thread is old/dead, but I hate threads that end with no resolution.
What if someone else is experiencing the same or similar problem?
Try AudioBT Plus from the Google Playstore.
The Dev TurboLED may also have a thread here on XDA.
This eloquently solved the problem for me.
Good Luck

[Q] Android, bluetooth skype google hangout problem

HI there,
I have problem with Bluetooth headset and Android 4.2. On Skype and Google hangout weird problem of the sound playing too fast, or just hearing static.
I use the tf-101 and the plantronics voyager. I read that there is a lot of people with bluetooth/android/voip problems, is there a general thread about this particular problem?
I found many posts about it but not a general centralize 'how to' guide to fixing bluetooth on Android.
Is this a known problem for many user?
