hi, i have installed tomtom 5.0 but i cant pair my gps bluetooth(sysonchip). I worked with tomtom3.x and 4.x. When i launch tomtom and try to setup the gps, i only can bound with com2, 6, and 9. Any idea?
I have had the same problem with TomTom and Oncourse Navigator 4.2, I believe it is an incompatibility problem with WM2005. I tried using the built-in GPS manager in WM2005, but I do not think it is working in this version, or it will only work with newer GPS porgrams compatible with 2005.
Solved¡¡¡
The problem is TomTom list only the ports that appears in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\Active but when you create an outgoing port (with the BT applet), it isnt included in this list. I ve create a little C program (5 kb) that include the port com5 manually, so Tomtom can see it and you can Select it. I ve put a link to this program in windows\startup to be executed after each reset. Now it works ))
If someone need it i can post it....
YES! Post it here, please ...
Thanks in advance.
Hi, This is the way it worked for me.
1) Create a outgoing port (5) to connect with the gps
2) Place the patch in \windows\startup (to be executed each time you reboot).
3) Reset the device.
4) Run tomTom, select "other gps bluetooth". Then you should see "Port 5".
If you need a diferent port tell me and i will recompilate the program or i will post the source code.
tomtom 5 doesn't install, program crashes.. tried 2 install the cabs... only ttn.cab gives a failure on install, the other cabs installed corectly.
how did you install 5?

dherrero, you are a genius! This has been driving me insane.
I have just downloaded your patch and sprinted to my car to try it and it worked immediately!
You are wellcome.....

tnx , works great!!
Brilliant!
Strangely enough, the patch still keeps working if you run this patch once, then delete it.
Doesn't look like you need to put it in your windows\startup directory.
yep, when tomtom bounds to the gps in port 5 (or other) it retains the port number.
Anyway keep the patch in your sd card (or other safe place)because you may need it if tomtom "forgets" the port
If i install it from the CD, the setup is crashing
If i copy the .cab "ttn.CAB" (2.58 mb) and copy it to the device and open it he say's: "Unpacking was unsuccesful"
Someone?

Is this supposed to work with the Stock ROM from Sprint the way it comes originally? or do we have to have one of the custom ROMs installed?
I tried it on my new Touch PRO and after the step to install the wavedev.dll and soft reset, I get an error saying "voicecmd.exe experienced some error plese restart voicecmd.exe." and after that when making or receiving call the other party can't hear me, nor can I play any audio out of the device.

Here is what I ended up doing on my Sprint Touch Pro, which has its manufacture's ROM (version 2.01.651.6) and runs on wm6.1, to install ICR successfully:
1) Note: In these steps, you will end up replacing some files in the Window's folder. The consequence is that you will not be able to delete the ICR program entirely once you do the replacements. If you do delete the ICR program partially, you will not be able to re-install it without doing a hard reset.
2) Note: To achieve the file replacements in the wildow's folder, my instructions have file renaming scheme. Others use a program called Total Commander to do it.
3) Go to the Windows' folder (which you will find under Start, Programs, File Explorer, select Device and click "Up" until you are at the highest level, then click on Windows's foler). Click on Menu, and choose "Show all files."
4) In the Windows folder, find and copy the file wavedev.dll to your microSD card. It is important that you obtain a copy of this file before you do anything else if your phone is CDMA such as those for Sprint Touch Pro. According to another post in PPC Geeks forum, GSM phones should not do this step, but it wouldn't be bad to save file in case you want to erase programs and this file is needed.
5) Install Conflipper Slide 2 Answer.cab and do a soft reset (You must change the original S2A to this CDMA S2A or any other CDMA S2A that allows a red light to appear on your screen when you start call recording. None of the original Sprint S2A's will work. This S2A will look the same as the original Sprint one, but it will have the red light capability and thus be compatible with the ICR program). (You may also use Juggalo_X's CDMA S2A, but I did not try it. If you do want to try Juggalo_X's CDMA S2A, be aware that he has a black and white version. The white version is like your original HTC/Sprint version of S2A. I tried his black version, but it would not erase when I wanted to erase it. But that could be from the ICR program that I had installed.)
6) Install InCallRecording_Wavdev DLL.cab and do a soft reset. (There are many versions of ICR CAB, but I was successful with this one. I did not try all the other ones.) After soft resetting, you will get some sort of page pop up saying something like "voicecmd.exe experienced some error please restart voicecmd.exe." Ignore this for now, and be aware that at this time you will not be able to talk on you phone because the ICR program replaced the file wavedev.dll in your Window's folder with its own version of this file, which is not compatible with Sprint's Touch Pro.
7) Extract the two files in ICR_BEEP.zip (ICR_BEEP.wav, ICR_BEEPBEEP.wav) to Windows folder. This purpose of these two files is to stop ICR from beeping during recordings that the ICR program will play every minute or so. In some state's you may legally have to let ICR beep to warn the other person that the call is being recorded. So before replacing these beep files and using ICR, check your local laws for compliance.
8) This step may not be necessay, but I never tried ICR installations without it to find out: Extract voAMRNBEnc.dll file to Windows' folder. (If it does not allow to do it, first extract it to your microSD card and rename to something else like XXXvoAMRNBEnc.dll. Now extract the renamed file to Windows' folder. Find the same file that already exists in Windows folder "voAMRNBENC.dll" and try to rename this file to something else like ZZZvoAMRNBEnc.dll, which you will delete later. Now go to your renamed file (XXXvoAMRNBEnc.dll) and name back to voAMRNBEnc.dll. Soft reset and come back to Windows' folder to delete ZZZvoAMRNBEnc.dll. Soft reset again.)
9) Do not do this step if your phone is GSM: If your phone is CDMA, go to your microSD card and copy the file wavedev.dll, which you had copied to your microSD in step 2. Then, go to the windows' folder and paste it there. The files will come up as "Copy of wavedev.dll," and make sure that you do not change this name (i.e., do not delete "copy of" portion of the name). (Because the ICR program that you installed put its own wavedev.dll file in the Window's folder and eliminates the original one, this step is necessary to restore the original wavedev.dll file that was in your Window's folder.) Now, soft reset, and your phone can should be able to have sound again. Now, the error message following the installation of the ICR CAB mentioned in step 6 should not come up after soft resetting.
10) For Sprint's Touch Pro, the in-call recording requires that you put the call on speaker, but the sound quality is very good. (I don't know whether the conversation is being recoded by the mic from what the phone's loud speaker says or internally by the ICR program. However, when I turned on the speaker and blocked it with my hand, the sound quality of the other person calling did not change.) Additionally, the ICR program only works during phone calls. After the call is connected, click on menu in the call screen, and choose "Start Recording."
Disclaimer: Use my instructions at your own risk. Back up all your data, and be prepared to hard reset your phone if your phone gets missed up in the process.

Good luck and please post your results plus detailed instructions as I have for other phones like Sprint's Touch pro2. I may buy it once they release the official wm6.5, and I want to be able to use ICR with Sprint Touch Pro2 running on wm6.5. And somebody tell HTC to lighten up and let your U.S. customers have ICR too. Other primitive phones in the U.S. have it, so their legal concerns is blown out of proportions!
Last night I was checking out Cyanogen's web site and I came across this:
Bluetooth Voice Commands Missing in CM6?
Hello,
One of the newer features that I liked so far in CM-6 was the ability to long press my bluetooth headset action button which resulted in a voice telling me to say a command. This was much better than the original phone voice dialer, which requires manual intervention to pick a number from its list of guesses after you speak, and which offers no voice prompt to let you know when it's ready.
Well, as of upgrading to CM-6.0 from the 8-25 nightly, the bluetooth/headset dialer is gone and when I long press my bluetooth headset button It's back to the old phone voice dialer which requires manual intervention to place a call and offers no voice prompt. How do I get the bluetooth dialer back?
I have attached the 09SEP-VoiceDialer.apk from CM-6 release for easy downloading.
***Instructions- Download the file into your root of your SD card, using Root Explorer remove the old VoiceDialer.apk and install the new 09SEP-VoiceDialer.apk
The OLD VoiceDialer.apk can be found under /system/app
Mine is working great!
Any questions, PM me....
Enjoy!
my bluetooth headset can now operate the voice commands, however, after a command is given, Voice Dialer FCs.

Did you remove the old VoiceDialer.apk?
Also, don't forget to change the permissions on the 09SEP-VoiceDialer.apk after yoo move it to /system/app.
This is working great for me, back to the way it was before the update!
Sent from my FroyoEris using XDA App
so as far as the instructions:
***Instructions- Download the file into your root of your SD card, using Root Explorer remove the old VoiceDialer.apk and install the new 09SEP-VoiceDialer.apk
is install the new file is just copying it then pasting it into the system/app folder using root explorer, longpress on app and change permissions to allow all. then reboot.
EDIT: apparently yes, my bt headset works perfectly with voice dialer now. thank you.
This is great -- restores the BT voice dialing functionality that should have been stock in the Eris from the start
Is the source for this APK available? I wonder if it would be possible to modify to add an optional "confirmation" step:
User: "Call Jim Somename"
Phone: "Calling Jeff Someothername, is that correct?"
User: "No"
Could certainly be fancier, like presenting several options, but the above would be sufficient to prevent misdialing people you don't mean to call in other area codes, etc. That's my main hesitation to use it right now; my wife's name, in particular, seems to mismatch to other names often.
I haven't done much Android development yet, but I'd be interested in poking at this code.

Thanks for this
I can't believe that Google has worse technology than MS on this! MS Voice Command is far superior.
I tried vlingo with mixed results.
Will try this.
Just installed on my Aria running Liberated 2.2 and it works great!
BTW, I couldn't for the life of me delete the old VoiceDialer.apk using a file explorer, so I just took a shot and installed this Voice Dialer, so no real need as far as I can tell to go through the hassles of the instructions above.
Many thanks.
I tried.this but I keep getting a parsing error ???? I'm a noob have no clue what that means..lol

I realize that this is a bit of a dead post, but do you think this apk would work on a Samsung Captivate? I'm currently running with Perception 10.3 and Speedmod kernel, but for some reason the BT Voice Dialer has decided to stop working and is continually stuck at Starting Up.
I'm trying to get this to work on my Aria running FR0008 but no dice. Even using Root Explorer I simply cannot get either the original Dialer.apk deleted or the replacement 09SEPDialer.apk installed.
What am I doing wrong? I REALLY want the proper Bluetooth dialer in this ROM as I use a headset often and at the moment I prefer it to the Cyanogen ROMS.

Have you tried this? Download the 09Sep-VoiceDialer.apk to your computer. Rename it VoiceDialer.apk and place it in your tools directory of SDK. Connect your phone to PC. Open a command prompt window and navigate it to your tools directory of SDK. Type adb remount. Then type adb push VoiceDialer.apk /system/app. Then adb reboot. Be certain to take not to the caps in the file name as well so it will overwrite the one that's already in place on your phone. Hope this helps

Awesome, I'll try giving that a whirl later this evening. Thanks for the pointer.
So, I gotta be honest, I just simply do not have the technical know how to get this working. I've downloaded and installed all relevant files but can't even seem to get the phone connected.
Here's what I'd love to be able to do, simply replace the VoiceDialer.apk in the Aria FR008 ROM - which does not support Bluetooth voice dialing with this one that apparently does.
I have tried unzipping the FR008 ROM and replacing the file and rezipping. When I go to install it from card in recovery mode it immediatly crashes. I'm seeing that the FR008 zip is "signed" and guess that I'm missing doing something important here, resigning either the whole ROM or just the file?
Can anyone please help me out here as I'm really struggling with this.

Yeah... if you unzip it you will need to sign it when you zip it in order to flash it. Try opening to rom with 7zip or winrar and just drag and drop the new one into the zip to replace the old one. Don't unzip it.

Google Talk is an instant messaging, audio and video chat service from Google, which is being designed for users to communicate in real time with other users who also use Google Talk. To complement Google Talk on desktop computer, Google has recently expanded Google Talk to Android phones with video and voice chat. With the new added service to Android phone, the users can now make a video or voice chat with their friends, family and colleagues who also use Google Talk on Android devices or on desktop PC.
Key features of the Google Talk for Android includes:
Able to make calls over 3G or 4G data network (if your carrier supports it) or over Wi-Fi.
Simply touch the video or voice chat button to connect with the friends or family members who are in the Google Talk friends list.
Text-chats will be overlaid on the phone screen while you are on video with others.
The video will automatically pauses and audio will keep going when you need to check something else from the Home screen or apps.
Google Talk with video and voice chat has already started to delivered to Google Nexus S devices as part of the Android 2.3.4 over-the-air update. Other Android devices will have to wait until the phone manufacturers such as HTC, Samsung, Motorola, LG and etc to start offering upgrade to Android 2.3.4 for their respective phones in order to get Google Talk with video and voice call feature.
If you can’t wait for the Google Talk with video chat support to come to your phone, which may take weeks or months to arrive, a hacker named britso has managed to extract Google Talk 1.3 app with video plus voice call support from Google Nexus S Android 2.3.4 update, hack the SigninActivity.smali to comment out a line so that the app works on other devices. The app is then re-compiled and pushed as the APK file for installing into other Android mobile phones running Android 2.3 or above.
Listed below are several ways on how to instal lGoogle Talk with voice and video chat support onto your Android smartphone. Note that the hack only works on rooted Android phone.
The download links of Google Talk apk is available from xda-developers.com (registration required).
Method 1: Via ADB
1.Download either Talk_with AV.zip or Talk_with_AV_no_wifi.zip.
2.Connect the Adnroid phone to PC and run following commands on ADB console:adb remount
adb shell mv /system/app/Talk.apk /system/app/Talk.apk1
adb uninstall com.google.android.talk
adb push libtalk_jni.so /system/lib/
adb push Talk2.apk /system/app
3.Run Talk and press on your own name where you can change your own status and tick the Allow video and voice chats to enable the feature.
Method 2: Using Root Explorer
1.Download and extract Talk_with AV.zip to SC card.
2.Open Root Explorer and navigate to extracted files on SDcard.
3.Copy talk2.apk and go to /system/app.
4.Press Mount R/W at the top right and then press Paste on the bottom left.
5.Now you have both talk.apk and talk2.apk.
6.Rename Talk.apk to Talk.apk1.
7.Select and hold the other Talk2.apk and press Permissions and select:User: Read Write
Group: Read
Others: Read
And press Ok.
8.Now press and hold on Talk2.apk and press Rename.
9.And rename Talk2.apk to Talk.apk.
10.Go back to extracted files SDcard and copy libtalk_jni.so.
11.Navigate to system/lib.
12.Press Mount R/W at the top right and then press Paste on the bottom left.
13.Press and hold on libtalk_jni.so and select Permissions, and change the permissions to:User: Read Write
Group: Read
Others: Read
14.Reboot the device.
15.Open Talk and press on your own name where you can change your own status and tick the Allow video and voice chats to enable the feature.
Eh? Confusion....

2) if i tap mount r/o and paste the file it says not enough space, even if i don't tap mount r/o and then paste it, it says the same thing.
I have like 916KB free and 276MB used.
Is the folder dynamically expanding?
Or i have used a lot of space?

do you have gtalk (can voic and video)for 2.3.7?gtalk in my cm7.2 can only chat in text,not voic and video!thx
?????
where is the linke????????????
OK... So it would seem that the more technology advances, the less control users have on their devices... GRRRRRR!
But before we engage in arguments on the politics of actively hiding the file system to computer users and restricting access to their devices... Does anyone know WHERE Google stores its Offline Speech Recognition Language Files?
I accidentally discovered that Offline Speech Recognition seems to have been bundled with Google Search somehow because if Google Search is disabled, so is Speech Recognition and looking at Google Search in Application Manager, one can notice that the data storage is proportional to the size of the downloaded language files, but so far have been unable to locate where on the device these files are stored, so that they don't need to be downloaded again.
Any ideas?

on my 4.1.x / rk30xx based tablet, the files are in:
/data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/ **folders in here with the files downloaded for each language**

YESSS! Confirmed on my Samsung Galxy Note 2
THANK YOU SHERLOCK!!!
For those using OFFLINE voice to text to SAVE BANDWIDTH, having to DOWNLOAD THE FILES every time something Google crashes in order to save you from DOWNLOADING in real time was a bit absurd, don't you think?
This should resolve the issue, unless of course reinstalling the files manually is not possible. I'll make some tests and get back with results.
unable to find language files for offline voice recognition

Firstly, just in case you were trying to do this on an older OS, it's supposed to work only starting with Jelly Bean (4.1.1), but I presume you wouldn't have an option to download if you were on an old OS...
Otherwise your Google Search installation may be corrupted and you need to delete the data and cache and reboot (note to others: if you need to reinitialize Google Search for any reason and already downloaded language files, COPY THEM ONTO YOUR SDCARD FIRST if you don't want to be downloading them again ).
If that doesn't work, update Google Search offline, there are apks available, I'll post one up tomorrow if you have trouble finding one.
If worse comes to worst, you may have to delete your google account and re-register it after a reboot. Usually that's as far as you need to go.
If you still need language packs after all this, let me know and I'll download them for you as I'll be WiFi all day tomorrow.
Good luck!

this was my first option yesterday, but no luck
Unfortunatelly on Android 4.2 both GOOGLE SEARCH and VOICE SEARCH are embedded in Android rom. So I haven't ANY unistall option. I just have the option to uninstall updates (witch I did, hoping the update would have somehow fixed the issue, but again, NO luck)

that's a very kind tip from you, but Nexus come with no sd slot, anyway I've wifi both home and work, so I don't mind downloading them back

I have 3 accounts configured, (2x google standard account and 1x google app account) so removing them all is the last option....

indeed I'm willing to test wether just manually creating the folder and inflating the language files can meke it work......if you can provide me the ITALIAN language pack. I think I'll wait the Andoid v.5 update for a device wipe/reset
Good luck!

not sure it makes a difference since you're able to navigate there anyway... I'd be surprised if the other folders were hidden...

So I've just backed up the Google Search on my device, 2.0.0.438695.apk, this one works for me, and another one I had on backup 2.3.11.575405.apk, don't remember if it's any better.
I hope it helps, it's probably better than downloading the updates.

As I understand it, reinitializing the phone won't erase the internal SDCard, it's like a separate partition.

Here you go, it's a zip file, unzip with stored folders, it should create the folder it-IT with several files, put it all into /data/data/com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/
Hope it helps!

IT WORKED
THANKS A LOT
.
I downloaded all the needed file (both .apk and language files)
but I started creating the /app_g3_models/ folder and then inlating the IT-it language pack you provided
Than I checked if the language file was listed as installed in the offline voice recognition menu, but yet it wasn't
BUT when I clicked on download....it started downloading it back, and then it appeared in the installed language for offline use
of course my second test was....can I download any other language now or for the time being I'll always need to have it manuallly copied on the mobile and THEN I'll be able to "download" it.........
quess what? I was able to download Englis (UK) and German
so definitilelly the issue seems to be solved
And I did not even had to use the .apk files
thanks again

Ohk.. U created those folders- com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox/app_g3_models/
N also downloaded that Google search .apk.. Now what should I do?
Bcoz I already hav Google search installed rite now..so should I uninstall that? Or how should I proceed..
Edit I don't speak Italian so did not download that other file..
I don't speak German either, but I downloaded the laguage file to test the "download" function was working within the Offline Voice features
I mean, somehow the fact google voice offline realized there was 1 language file in the folder....un-locked the donwload new language file function

Helped a lot......
Worked?
I have a rooted Huawei Y300 with stock ROM, JB 4.1.1. The option to download the offline recognition files isn't there, but I'm quite sure that back when I bought the phone early April, the option was still there. I couldn't find anything definitive, but it seems that Google has disabled the offline recognition for devices it deems "too slow/weak" to use that functionality. Or something.
In any case, the app_g3_models folder exists on my phone, but it's empty. If I set the language to English (US), the offline recognition works, if I set it to English (UK) or German or whatever, I get a speech server error if I'm offline (I use utter!). So I downloaded the Italian files linked earlier in this thread and copied them to the app_g3_models folder. Then I set the Voice Search language to Italian, tried utter! and it worked while offline. The only "problem" being that it understands the speech as English, not Italian... I don't actually speak Italian but I set utter! to display the results it gets back from the Google speech recognition service, and those results are in English. And if I ask it "What time is it?", it understands me correctly. I assume the problem is that the speech recognition sees the Italian offline files, but for whatever reason it can't use them and defaults to the working English (US) files (where are THOSE, anyway?). If I set the Voice Search language to anything but Italian or English (US), I get the speech server error again.
So here's my request - could someone please download the English (US), English (UK), German and Russian offline files on his phone and upload them somewhere for me to try?
Also if you know how I can get the download option to show on my phone, that would be even better .
A big +1 to that. I downloaded the Italian files myself and got my phone sounding like Mussolini. Lol..Still if somebody could upload the English US file it'd be great. I'm gonna keep looking for them. If I find them I'll post a link for y'all here.
Sorry guys, I'm stupid I suspect.
I've downloaded the files to app_g3_models.
When I select Voice Search, I see:
Language
Default - English (UK)
Speech output
Only when informative
Block offensive words
Hide recognised offensive voice results
Bluetooth headset
Records audio through Bluetooth headset if available.
there is nothing else. So what do I need to do next, to get offline voice recognition working?

I had this same issue with another app that uses Google offline recognition files. (Utter) Spent days trying to figure it out. What did the trick was installing svox voice engine, and a trial of a voice pack (it seemed that it wouldn't work without the voice package) once I set that up the offline stuff started working.
Hope it helps ya
