I purchased a Motorola TZ700 Roadster and paired it up with my Atrix. Pressed the Voice Dial button and it works.
Did it a few times and everything seems ok..
Then the Atrix screen goes blank (I have it set for two minutes)
If I hit the voice dial button on the roadster while the phone is 'asleep' the roadster beeps twice and I do not get a "say command" prompt.
If I unlock the phone and hit the roadsters voice dial it works.
Seems to only have a problem when the phone is asleep.
I then tried to play music over the roadster while the phone was asleep and it plays no problem.
Has anyone else come accross this? any solutions? Ideas?
Is this normal for a android phone?
Thanks,
Pete
Try freezing viingo. Worked for me.

Bluetooth voice dial
On my ATRIX and I believe all Android phones from Motorola if you have a password set bluetooth will not work to start voice command unless the phone is plugged in to a charger. I know my ATRIX will not start voice command unless I unlock the phone. Not good as I can't have a password and bluetooth voice dial, not happy.
hope this helps

Thanks for the replys.. Freezing vlingo didn't resolve it.
I'll guess I'll have to live with it and plug it in when I get in the car..
Appreciate the reply.. thought I was going nuts...

On the Atrix just having the screen off (no password set), bluetooth voice commands will not work. The funny thing is I can even hear the phone beaping but the headset does not beap back to take a voice command. Using all Plantronics headsets.
Does anyone have a headset that this does not happen and you can BT voice command with the screen off?
Bluetooth voice dial
I use a Motorola S605, EQ5, Finiti, Oasis and H15 they all work for voice commands with screen off. I did not have good luck with the S10-HD. Check your settings for bluetooth and I very strongly suggest you install MotoSpeak. In MotoSpeak under Settings Enable Voice Commands and Enable Listen. MotoSpeak is an amazing program!
Hope this helps,

I use a plantronics headset that works with voice dial as long as no pin/finger print security is enabled
There is a setting under "Security" that will enable voice dialing when the phone is locked
I have a problem that when I searched for solution, I found that many other people have this problem !
I often use my bluetooth handsfree device , I press the botton to activate Voice Dialer or Cyberon Voice Speed Dial, all sounds like ring, music, notifications, etc... are gone !!! all volumes are on high and active and profile in NOT silent... but there is NO SOUND at all !
the only way is to reboot my phone ! I installed many different ROMs and the problem still exists but one Sense ROM named imilka's Desire HD v2.0
any solutions ?!
i never got problem with this on my s4g. bump.
I have the same issue
Did you ever find a fix? I get the same from choice dialer and google voice dialer. Vlingo does not have this issue, but it does not work through your bluetooth when you press the bluetooth button.
Hello,
I bought the app for voice dialing Voice Speed Dial. It looks very good. You want to use the voice dialing via BT HF (via the button), but unfortunately I still starts with Voice and when you turn it off, so I started Google.
I would please ask you how you can nastvit it to run directly Voice Speed Dial? Calmly, even if off or uninstall Google search with Voice - just do not use these applications.
Thanks so much for any advice.
I picked up an HBS-730. It sounds good, the Call button works fine for picking up a call or last number redial (by two short presses of Call) but when I long press it I don't get the voice dialer (or any other voice app).
Is there a file in System that I need to edit or run? I do have the LG and Google voice components installed. I've also tried unpairing and repairing the headset.
On a long press I end up with a roughly half second "beep" in the headset.
Alternately, anyone know of an app that captures a BT Call longpress, that you can then assign an app to?
(It sounds like trapping a longpress is something done in a .jar file, not a case of just touching the .kl files)
Thanks!
Hmmm....
Check your BT volume.
Volume is fine on calls, and playing music.
Headset Mic also works fine on calls and for voice commands if I manually launch voice dialer or Google search.
It just seems that a long press of the Call button isn't properly launching voice dialer, that's why I'm looking for an apk or a setting to edit.

The LG voice dialer is bland, try this. I know it works.

I tried the VoiceCommand app from Play Store, unfortunately same problem. I don't get a voice ommand prompt, on either a single short press or a long press of the Call button on my BT headset.
A single short press does work to connect an incoming call, or disconnect, any a double short press does activate last number redial, so I believe my headset is overall working okay, but I am not hooking a voice command app at all. On a single short press nothing happens, and on a longpress I get a beep, but that is all.
Headset volume works fine, the mic works fine (if I manually launch VoiceCommand, whether the LG app or Google, it picks up fine), just that my phone isn't linking the Call button to launch any VoiceCommand app, on either a single press or a long press.
I disabled the lg voice command and use Google and it works for me

Did you ever get to the bottom of this as I am having the same issue. On my Xperia Z2 I can choose what I want to activate when I press the call button on my car kit but on the G3 it mutes my radio but never brings anything up on the phone.
I have also tested it with a different bluetooth kit and it still doesn't do anything so it is definitely a phone issue.
I froze some files and maybe froze something I shouldn't have, but factory resets are not doing any good for me as they seem to only partially reset my phone (Frozen apps still do not appear even after factory resetting and also flashing a totally new firmware!)
My G3 will not allow me to Voicedial and I was hoping someone with an operative G3 on their car kit could download a program called Clear Defaults or Default App Manager Lite and advise me what program they have as Default for Voice Dialing (I am not too sure what the heading is exactly as my G3 doesn't show it at all)
Clear Defaults

Default App Manager
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.appiator.defaultappmanager&hl=en
I am trying to get troubleshoot this issue instead of returning it as I bought mine from eBay.
Is there actually someone who has the voice-dialing in his G3 working? I'm waiting also for a solution.
Voice dialing with Google works fine on the phone for me. Via Bluetooth in my car is also fine. nothing in default apps mentions voice dialing.
Oooooo, the voice dialer in the phone.... mine does not work either.
Does there happen anything when long-pressing the button in your car/on your Bluetooth headset?
Long pressing the button does nothing in the car or not.
I am trying to use the voice command feature w/my Galaxy S4 w/4.4.2 (KitKat, NK1).
Voyager and Edge headsets have a feature where a 2 second press on the Mute button when not in a call will launch Voice Search on the phone so you can use voice commands from the headset (e.g., "Call xyx on mobile") to make calls.
While connected to my phone but not in a call I press the Mute button for two seconds. I hear a brief low tone (from the headset) and then nothing - I never hear the Google Voice search tone/prompt coming from the phone through the headset.
Everything is configured properly as far as I can tell:
1. Audio over Bluetooth and requests over Bluetooth are enabled in Google Search.
2. Bluetooth commands are enabled in S4 settings when the phone screen is locked.
3. Phone is connected via BT to headset.
4. Legend has been granted access to contacts and call history. (Not sure this even matters for this issue.)
5. Firmware has been updated on the Legend to the latest and rebooted the headset and unpaired and paired it again.
I tried disabling S Voice (I never use it, but went ahead and turned it off) and that didn't help.
FWIW, I get the same results with the Edge headset as well. (Also updated to current firmware.) Since both fail I'm thinking that this is a Samsung issue.
Help! Any known work-around to get this to work. This makes the headset useless to make calls w/the phone in my pocket - I have to take my phone out, wake it up, enter my pin, and hit Home to go to the Google voice search prompt and then talk via the headset. Not exactly convenient.
Help! (And thanks!)
Holy Buttons, Batman. Figured it out.
<gulp> Operator error.
Was hitting the wrong button. Call button for 2 secs, not mute/voice command button.
Crawling back under my rock now.
