Media :: Wired Headset Button / Voice Dialing
Aug 16, 2010
Brand new to the forums and the android world, only a few days into my Droid 2 and I am loving it.When I ordered the phone from VZW I ordered a pair of WIRED headphones, and they work great so far, nothing fancy but they do the job well.There is 1-button on the headphones, that allows for me to stop/play music and answer/drop calls when I get calls, but the one thing i am trying to do is get a way for that button to start voice dialing, i used the feature all the time on my bberry and would love to know if there was a way/setting that i am just missing.

I have a Blue Parrot B250-XT bluetooth headset,.. it connects to my Ally just fine, when the phone is set to auto-answer it works just fine,.. however, when I push the answer/end button while not on a call, it does nothing,.. I would expect it to activate voice dialing, as it has on other phones I've owned,.. how can I achieve this action?

I just upgraded my dream to a magic, and I have only one complaint. On the dream, when listening to music, a quick double tap of the wired headset button would skip songs. On the magic it appears to dial the last person I spoke to! It's hard to break the habit of trying to skip songs with this button, and annoying if I have to take my phone out of the sleeve and unlock it every time. Does anyone know if there's a way to change this? I've found no preferences for the music player or the headset. I'm using the stock headset and the HTC Sense version of the music player.

There's an app called DroidShuffle which allows you to control your music playback from your wired headset. You can custom set singe click, double click, triple click, and long click to either pause, skip to the next track, go to the previous track, switch to shuffle, or seek ahead a bit. Also, when using your wired headset in a call, this app allows you to end the call with a long click. I haven't seen any mention of this free app and thought a lot people would like to know.

I just discovered that BB 0.4 has bluetooth voice dialing from the headset. I have tried it on 2 different rooted droids with different headsets. Just have to press and hold the action button for a couple seconds and it pops up.

Has anyone found a way or App that will allow you to voice dial using a bluetooth headset. This is a basic bluetooth task yet the highly technical Droid doesn't come from Motorola with this simple function.

I'm wondering if I can use a wired headset and mic with the DI? I already have one and the voice to text would be great with a wired mic. I'm sure it can do BT but then there's the extra battery it would use and I don't have a BT headset.

I have to say that the stock headset is very low quality (compared to the Moment itself). I also have a tough time adjusting to the answer button as it provides almost no feedback when you push it. Does anyone know of a good headset (wired) that fits well in the ear (this one hurts my ear).

I have a wired headset with a boom mic. It is a cheap one, but works well. Only trouble is that the volume is too quiet. Wondering if there is a way to up the volume output? An aftermarket app. Or a hack if I have too.

Before I upgraded when I clicked the button on my ear buds with a Mic it would hang up the call I was on. Now when I click it it mutes the call. So I have to take my phone out and manually hang the call up.

Does anybody know any good wired headset with mic? I had the Motorola EH25 Stereo Earset And i liked it before it broke in 2 months. And i want to get an new one. But i want something that will last me longer then that. Even though i didn't lose any money on those because i bought it from overstock with warranty and they ended gaving me the full refund with the price of product and the warranty price back . I am not big fan of blue tooth headsets because first you have to turn on the bluetooth on your phone and then pair it and also then u have to charge your bluetooth end of the day. In the end its too much of an hassle. Besides the quality of the sound through wired headsets are much better then the bluetooth from what i have experienced. Any advice for good wired headsets(w mic). I will be using it for mostly phone calls and not that much music.

I have a cheapo wired headset (that works really good btw), but when it is plugged in, my phone does not ring normally; only through the headset itself. It does vibrate, but when Im in the car, I miss calls. Unplugging the headset just makes one more thing for me to worry about while driving when getting calls. Does anyone know how to make the phone ring normally through the speaker with a wired headset plugged in.

I'm looking a decent wired headset with the in-ear earbuds.I like the skullcandy stuff but I didn't know theirs is compatible with the Sprint HTC Hero. I'm specifically looking at the skullcandy full metal jacket. Can anyone tell me if these will work?

Using Intent.ACTION_HEADSET_PLUG, my app can be notified when a wired headset is plugged or unplugged. But how can it determine whether or not it's plugged in when it starts running? The closest thing I can find is AudioManager.isWiredHeadsetOn() which "checks whether audio routing to the wired headset is on or off" - but the headset can still be connected without audio being routed to it.

I have a serious problem with my HTC Hero. Basically, all of a sudden I got this icon of a pair of headphones in the notification area. I checked what it meant on the manual and it means: Wired Headset Connected.There were no headset connected when it appeared and never before because I have never put any headset in the phone. I thought that by restarting the mobile I'll have it solved..but no..the icon remains there. The major problem is not the icon in itself but the phonecalls. When I call someone or someone calls me, there is no sound in the ear speaker because the sound output is basically going into a headset that does not exist. I tried putting the factory headset in and out to refresh the icon however this does not sort out the problem neither. There is no setting to switch this thing on or off and I have no idea how it came up. I tried all settings even during an incoming call or so but nothing..there's this flag that keeps indicating a wired headset. I don't feel like formatting the phone because it's not fair!! (and i dont have the damn time to play around..it costs good money so i pretend it works fine he only way I can have a phone conversation is either by putting the call on speakerphone (obviously losing privacy) or by carrying a headset around with me all the time.

I am running Android version 2.3.7 on a Samsung Infuse
Due to water damage my phone no longer recognizes when a headset is plugged in or not, and thus always thinks that it is plugged in.
I have found an app that forced the audio to play through the speakers of the phone, but i am unable to find an app that does the opposite which is forcing the audio through the headset.
The app that does the opposite of what i need says it does 4 things:
Headset false
A2DP false
SCO false
Speakerphone false
I also realize there are widgets that can accomplish forcing the plug/unplugging of the audio, but i really need a very simple app that forces the audio to headset when opened. (i need the app instead of a widget to use it with tasker and other things, widget is very limiting.)
if it could be done through tasker that would be great too.

is there any app that allows you to "turn" a wired headset to a bluetooth one via android?
You might think to connect an android smartphone to a normal wired headset (such as those supplied with most phones) and to exploit its bluetooth connection to use it on pc/consoles/... Do you think that it is possible?

I've been looking for a couple of days and haven't found anything worth trying. I also do not like in-the-ear buds and would prefer something that goes over the ear.

Almost a year ago I purchased the HT820 Motorolla headset so I could pair a bluetooth phone and mp3 player to the same headset. It worked fantastic. Now that I finally have my hands on the Google phone, I was hoping to dual pair the headset to the phone for both media and the phone.
I don't know if I am doing something wrong during the pairing procedure, but it will not play media through the headset, except in the second before dialing a contact or just after I hang up. Whatever music is playing, comes out of the speakers, but like I said if a call comes in, I hear the music through the headset until I answer, and then it pauses like it should, then plays again after I hang up but it switches back to the external speaker almost immediately.
It works fine for the phone, and in the Bluetooth list of devices, it shows as connected.

I recently purchased a Blueant S4 bluetooth speakerphone, Im trying to use the voice dailing feature with the new 2.2 froyo release and it sucks.....really. Even not using the blueant speakerphone and just using the phone trying to speak commands directly at it in a quiet room, it dosent even work. Example I tried to call my mother today when prompted I said "Call Mom" the phone decoded that as "Call Aubrey" lol which is a imporvement from the "nothing found" errors ive been getting....is there another app to replace the stock voice dialing application that works better?

The Voice Dialing program in the phone is a total joke.. You have to have the phone in your hand, activate the voice dialing, speak your request, then manually confirm your request on the phone its self.. I thought the whole purpose of the voice dialing feature was for hands free capabilities.. The way this program currently works renders it utterly useless. I have a Cardo Q2 setup for my motorcycle helmet.. which has a bluetooth phone link setup in it.. Its basically a bluetooth headset thats integrated into the helmet. Everything works fine with the G1 phone except the voice dialing. Does anyone know of a Voice Dialing app that basically revamps the factory program so that you can use voice dialing w/ your headset? I searched and searched but couldn't find any real answer to this question.

After watching many news clips about the new iPhone I figured out my inability to disconnect a call was caused by the way I was holding the phone and that is what the proximity sensor is all about. Rather poed that neither Verizon or Motorola knew what I was talking about. According to TV News this is a problem with almost every new smart phone. I now have an interconnected problem. I am having trouble voice dialing a call. Apparently many others are as well. What is the significance of the different NAME fields in "Contacts"? Which one will the Voice Dialer look in? Any help about other Voice Dialers for the Motorola Android 2? Any suggestions as to how to better use the built in voice dialer(s)?

I'm Rubenn from London UK and recently upgraded to a Hero HTC after having used a Touch Duo HTC for around two years. I, like may others contributing to your forum, am very sad that there is no way I can use my head set and voice dial out with this phone. What a step backwards as in many other respects, this is a wonderful phone although it will take me ages to get my head around all the other possibilities it offers. Is it possible that HTC will get out a patch that can be installed at some point in the near future.

I just got the froyo 2.2 upgrade and can't wait to use all the new features! I am trying to figure out how to use the latest addition of voice command dialing via bluetooth. I have a parrot hooked into my stereo and need some direction on how to set it up.
