I need a way to be able to voice dial at any time even with the phone locked or with some other app the Voice Talk open via Bluetooth, I know this is possible on Android since my old Motorola Milestone could do it and would be legal under the new laws.
My province is now getting distracted driving laws which will make using my phone illegal with how many steps it takes currently.
I refuse to give up locking my phone since I have private info on it but I need to be able to make calls by pressing the button on my Bluetooth even with the phone locked since it could even be in my jeans pocket with no way to get at it when sitting.
Currently on my GS2 I have to unlock the phone then double click the home button to bring up voice dialing or even open the voice talk app if I am in a different app.
Compared to my Milestone where I never touched it and at any time even pattern locked or in a different app I could just press the button on my Bluetooth and say "call jane" or something and it always worked.
How can I get this back? Considering the laws are coming into effect next month for me.
I would like to keep the stock Samsung voice for most time but would be willing to have a second one that works even if the phone is locked.
I also have people that want this phone but willn't buy it until I get this fixed.
Use Tasker to disable the lock pattern when connected to a bluetooth device - therefore when you disconnect from your car bluetooth, your lock pattern will re-activate.
Problem solved!
OK I have that and think I am close to setting it up but can't totally figure it out how to disable the lock screen.
All I have figured out is a profile that runs if a mic headset is connected but when I try to figure out the task it does I get stuck.
I have never used Tasker before.
This is suddenly going to be to expensive since I found out the SGS2 requires extra work to disable the pattern lock which is a extra $10 plugin and I am not even sure if I want to pay for Tasker itself after the 7 day trial.
I might try and find out how it was done on my old phone when locked.
For others that may want to kn ow here is the thread for this on a GS2

Nope, you don't need the plugin - there's a keyguard action that you would disable, which also disables the lockscreen.
I'm trying to set this up myself, but for some stupid reason, it's not responding when I press my bluetooth button at all...
Fricken Vlingo - you suck!

Are you sure that would work on our Samsung phones since they modified the locking system to use the /efs partition?
If you do get it working make sure to tell me how.
I am now on my third hands free car kit with my S3 and get the same issue with every one. I pair my phone. Connect my phone and it works ok for some time, could be an hour could be days. When working properly I press button on hands free kit to make voice call. Get a small sound to alert me to speak name of whom I want to call. When it works, it will then call the person I say. When it goes wonky, as it does, regularly, I press the button on hands free and await the signal to say the name. This time however, the sound that is made sounds all distorted and although the svoice screen appears on screen, it does not recognise what I say. I can receive incoming calls and answer them by pressing button at all times it just seems somehow to screw up the Bluetooth function every now and again. I have reset phone, did upgrades, (official ones, not rooted) and still happens. Anyone any ideas what issue is. As I mentioned it has happened with three different hands free kits I have bought so definitely the phone. Thanks for any help.

Hello Everyone.
A recent problem, no new software, no updates, I've done a search, both here and on the internet, no solution I can find;
zte zmax, z970 metro pcs, 4.4.4 no root
Started a few days ago, when using bluetooth to make a call, the call goes through, bluetooth stays on, but the phone defaults to phone mic and speaker
I know bluetooth is still on as I can still end the call through bluetooth
To get the bluetooth re-engaged while on the call, I have to toggle in the phone applet, bluetooth icon to speaker on, and then back to bluetooth.
I think this started with a google update, but I did go back to the stock app and it didn't solve the problem
When I go into safe mode bluetooth works as it should.
I've uninstalled the only program that accesses bluetooth settings, (which was torque).
It just feels like this is a phone setting and not a glitch, I can hear the phone actually turn off the microphone. I've cleared the cache of all data, and I tried clearing the cache of bluetooth.
Hope someone can steer me in the right direction, thanks in advance
surprised how little support this forum now gives, I see other blue tooth problems without one post in response.
Anyway, I figured if my post was anything like most people with problems, I wouldn't get anyone offering ideas so I did a factory reset.
For anyone else, if you come up with a solution, go ahead and post for other peeps, this is a common problem around the internet but nobody has an answer yet
Hi
I had my phone back from service some weeks ago where the amongst others switch my battery, but now I have problem with hearing the person who´s calling me(also had problem with bluetooth not wanting to turn on, thats fixed after Factory reset. Also have problems with connection to Sony bridge for mac and Xperia Companion). At first the phone where not able to make phone calls (took a long time and it never connected), but then I could receive and make calls, but I could not hear anything, just some bits hear and there, always breaking up and mostly not hearing anything at all. Did a factory reset and thought I fixed it but unfortunately not. I tested it a bit and it seems like the main issue is when I receive calls, they can hear me but I mostly can not hear them at all (just sometimes it breaks up a word here and there but mostly not). If i but speaker on I can hear the person calling me with no problem. Seems to work fine when I make the calls also(but Ive had the same problem there too, so not sure what the status is there right now).
I have tried:
- Factory reset
- Safe mode (same problem when in safe mode)
- Repair in Xperia Companion
- Checked speakers in Settings menu for diagnostics on the phone, no problems found.
- Checked speakers in Service/test menu (*#*#7378423#*#*), no problems found.
Does anyone have any tips or is the only solution to send it back for service?
J had this problem too in october ans finally Sony Will give me a new phone

Hi. Little issue I'm trying to get solved. When trying to make a call from in car steering wheel controls (simply press phone icon and dial a number from the phone book / history) the screen shows dial up failed , then after a moment it starts to dial the number. So it works but it's annoying as it can take a little bit of time , and it's when I go to check the phone it starts to work.
I'm on miui by xiaomi.eu 12.5.4 stable. I haven't and don't really want to factory reset. I have unpaired and repaired the phone to the car.
It used to work on previous miui ROM.
Has anyone had same issue or found a fix?
