Nokia 6301 BT headset voice activated dialling

Hi
I have just upgraded to a 6301 and have a Jabra BT250V headset. Previously I had a Nokia 6230i and by using the button on the headset I could make the phone give me the "Speak now" prompt to do voice dialing and end the call - all from the headset. With the new phone I can pair it but no control of the phone. Phone guide says press and hold right selection or down volume key to kick of the "Speak now". I'd like to control it from the headset. According to the Jabra website the BT250V is fully compatible with this phone.
Any ideas on settings on the phone to get this to work or a Bluetooth headset that does do this?
Thanks
Mart

There are chances that the headset is not fully compatible with the 6301 phone.
Though its shown on the Jabra website,have they tested it?
Compatibility must have yielded mixed results.
Incompatibility has been confirmed by test or other evidence. Initially, compatibility may have been considered possible.
Test has yielded critical failures. Incompatibility not confirmed yet (possibly: fixes/retesting expected)

Is voice activated dialling possible from a cark 9...

Apologies if this is really a dumb question.
Having used a Nokia bluetooth headset for years with my Nokia 6310i, and using voice activated dialling from the headset, I've finally had a cark 91 car kit installed in my car. Can I use voice activated dialling? I have them set up on phone but can't work out how to use them when the phone is in the cark 91 cradle. With the headset you had to push the button and speak after the tone, hence confusion now I haven't the headset and a button to push.
Thanks, Sue4089

I tried both methods and, actually both were really easy to do . When I added the DV-AVI file to the timeline and used the Motion properties to scale to 133% (constrained--so both height and width were enlarged), I lost the text I had in the title slide. Then I checked the photos--heads were cut off and on captions under the photos, the last line was missing. (I had enlarged the canvas in PSE and added text.) I tried reducing the scaling to about 80% which would maintain the captions, which may work--though I have black bars, but I sure had black bars in widescreen too--especially on the vertical photos.
My test may not be accurate since I don't have a 4:3 TV set any more. I tried the Sidebar setting on my widescreen TV. It may work better on a 4:3 set--I'll try that on someone else's set tomorrow. I had also put text on some photos and each line on the right side was cut off too. Without thinking I tried to edit it and move it--of course I couldn't because it was "fixed" in the avi file.That's the reason I had asked about editing the prel so I could start the 4:3 project and use everything I had already done in the 16:9 project and everything would still be editable. The draw back on scaling with that method is I have to do each photo individually unless there is a way to batch scale. Is there?
I am going to have to do more experimenting and viewing on a 4:3 set to decide which way works best for me.
Thank you so much for your suggested solutions

N900 - Voice activated dialling

For a device of this cost and complexity for voice activated dialling to be absent is a shocking omission.
Has anyone writen an app for this?
I for one would pay, if necessary - although to be honest Nokia should be ashamewd of themselves for releasing a 'phone without this function.

I agree this is an issue.
I use a Bluetooth car kit and because of this I cannot use voice dialling.
I do hope Nokia or a dev can solve this issue esp in todays society where it is illegal to use your phone whilst driving.....

6233 voice activated dialling feature. TERRIBLE!!!

For the last 30 mins I have been trying to find a way of recording my own voice tags for voice activated-calling on my 6233. What a waste of time. I think it is ridiculous that Nokia has not included this feature and according to the previous posts they are not going to put it into an firmware updates. I still have my Nokia 6230i which I think I will start using again. There are things I like about the 6233 but there are to many glitches, also the font for the time whilst in stand-by mode not only looks terrible but is hard to read. What are the people at Nokia thinking? They have put a load of junk on to the 6233 and not put the useful stuff that was on the 6230i on it. I've used Nokias for 8 years and I am now seriously considering getting a Sony Ericsson next time I can get an upgrade. WISE UP NOKIA!!

The new voice recognition that appears in almost all of Nokia's latest products does have built-in training, called adaptation, which means over time and with use the accuracy should increase.
The trouble with speaker independent voice recognition is that for some people, the accuracy is good enough from the outset, but for others it is not. This is why adaptation is included in the Nokia version to help improve the accuracy - but it is hidden from the menus.
You can test this adaptation by using the voice dialler and if it gets the name or command correct, select that name or command. This tells the voice recognition to adapt to your voice. If you don't select, then it won't adapt.
If this is repeated for several names or commands, then the accuracy should start to improve.
Another problem is that sometimes people have strange names in the phonebook that can sometimes spoof the voice recognition - it is worth listening to any strange phonebook names using the "playback voice tag" just to make sure.

that's alot to do especially when you don't have lots of time on your hands. its kind of ridiculous IMO. if it wasn't like that then names wouldn't make a difference whether its french or spanish or transfered from your sim, that's the names that confuses the voice dialler and causes it to come back empty, with the wrong name or a list of names. a headache while driving.
everything happens for a reason

SBH-80 Voice Activated Dialling?

Hi
Was looking to buy this headset but can find nothing on VAD support. Does anyone know if this headset support's it? If so how do you initiate a call, as it says nothing in the manual.
Thanks.

We apologize for the inconvenience TerrorByte. You may want to call Sony UK Mobile Support instead for immediate assistance. Click here to get their contact number. Thank you!

Nokia 7100 Voice activation

I have just bought the Nokia 7100 Supernova - I wanted to stay with Nokia because of the voice activation and having a hands free kit in the car. Firstly I can't figure out how to set up voice activation & secondly, although I have twinned the phone with my active device in the car & they look connected, when I try & make or receive a call nothing happens - usually the radio cuts out & the voice comes through the speakers & this isn't happening - help!!!!!

1. In the standby mode, press and hold the right selection key or the volume down key.
A short tone sounds, and Speak now is displayed.
2. Speak the name of the contact you want to dial. If the voice recognition is successful,
a list with matches is shown. The phone plays the voice command of the first match
on the list. If it is not the correct command, scroll to another entry.

X3 - 02: Voice activation

Just acquired the X3. Have been used to making a call by use of Bluetooth headset by pressing a button and saying the name of the person I want to call. The old method does not work on this model. Do I have to do something to set up voice activated dialling?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

In case anyone thinks of researching this - don't bother.
I have now discovered that this phone does not support voice activated dialling. (Yes - in 2010 this basic Bluetooth function is not provided.) This information has come from a specialist at Nokia , who himself expressed amazement that this is the situation. None of the Sales staff at the shop I bought the phone were aware of this - but they are now, and intend not to push this to other unsuspecting customers.
In short - if you need to use your phone whilst driving, this is not the model for you.

Can you initiate voice activated calls through BT Headset?

This is the million dollar question.
Does the iPhone 3Gs allow you to initiate voice-activated calls through a Blue Tooth Headset?
Can anyone here who has the 3Gs verify that they can do this?

I have the jawbone prime and also can not get the voice control to work. This was confirmed in the review over at www.mobiletechreview.com
THIS *****!!!!
I've been waiting a long time to have quality voice control on the iphone. Bluetooth connected voice control is the only real safe way to make a call while driving.
How can Apple be so stupid to not include that option. It's bad enough they didn't include voice control in the iphone 3G, but not to include the simple option of using a bluetooth headset...dumb.
It's just dumb.
FIX THE PROBLEM APPLE!

Nokia N96, Bluetooth, and voice-dialing....

Hi,
I upgraded from my N80 to an N96 and, being a rep and frequently on the road, Im finding the voice-dialing to be a real PITA.
The N80 would work just about anywhere. Car, street, pub, shops, wherever, it understood who I wanted to call. Not perfect, but close.
The N96 doesnt even PRETEND to understand me, throwing up any name at random it seems.
Worse, it is all very haphazard to use.
You press the top right function button and hold it down. On the N96, you could hold it for a very long time before it responds. Since the processor in this phone is way underpowered, it a second or two before your hear the Speak Now confirmatory beeps.
Couple that with the problem that many Bluetooth headsets power-down momentarily, it means that when youre driving along in the car and hold the button down on your BT headset, you dont actually hear the beeps. So you have to look down at the phone to see what its doing. While driving, this can be dangerous.
Now, because you ARE driving, the N96 is not likely to understand you anyway.
Nokia!! You need to go back to the drawing board here!!
1) Fix the voice-dial activation - pressing the top-right button for two seconds is plenty.
2) Play the bleeps WHEN the Speak Now screen comes up, not before! My N96 can take anywhere between 1 and 5 seconds between the bleeps and the Speak Now screen appearing!
3) Play the bleeps a bit longer when the Bluetooth headset is activated. Most Bluetooth headsets take a second or two to wake up - the sound is over by then and you miss it.
4) Go back to the N80 and read the code for what you did in that phone. It worked fine there!

Poor Sod/N96 Owner
Nokia: Connecting People... with iPhones.

Still here is no improvement with voice dialing with ver 12 soft and training sessions to n96.
It handles well with some names, but not with most. My old N95 did it much better from beginning (no training need!).
And extra case is with bluetooth HF - I stopped for waiting now for this stupid "beep" that is coming or before or after or in the middle the time, when voice detection screen is there. Now I just try to say the name about 2 sec after pressing BT button.
So, I hope some good Nokia engineer happens to read those voice dialing posts and in soft ver 13 we get better dialing (and finally somehow faster phone). Or do we, all who don't like extra slow processor should go in same day to service/operator and give in protest about the speed..

Hello,
I've recently got a new 6500 slide, it's an O2 model but I'm using it on Virgin (or T-Mobile as the phone tells me!)
Anyway, it was fine for a couple of weeks and I'm very happy with it generally, until yesterday when mid call the other person could no longer hear me, and now the same on every call I make or receive. It seems as though the microphone has just simply given up, I've tried taking the sim and battery out for a few minutes - just on the off chance really but as I thought that didn't work!
Also, and this isn't so much of a problem, just strange - whenever I take the cover off the back I lose my wallpaper!
Anyone got any ideas.....??

Making a call with voice activation

I have been using a Palm for 5 or 6 years that has allowed me to make calls by either naming the individual (voice command) or saying the numbers. It is invaluable (and much safer) while driving. Does either the iPhone or any Third Party software support this capability?

Hello,
We can't even have the phone in our hands while driving in Québec. I currently have a Blackberry pearl and wanted to switch to the Iphone but without voice activation calls I won't... I only have to push on the main button on my bluetooth headset and tell my contact to have the call placed. Does this apps allow for some "automation" like when I get in the car I activate it and then I don't need to push any buttons on the phone ?
Thanks

Suri conflict with voice activation

Suri and Voice Activation - I have discovered an issue when using a bluetooth headset, when activating voice control via the bluetooth to call someone, if Suri is on the call cannot be completed. There seems to be a conflict between Suri and Voice activation from bluetooth.

Well, I have never come across this issue before, but it sounds like a quality of service issue and not really a port issue of any sort so I doubt opening any type of port will fix anything. If your ONT allows it, try bypassing our router with the linksys and see if the problem is fixed. Just want to verify it is the actiontech router causing the issue...

Voice Control dialling on 3GS via Bluetooth in UK English language

When I first got my iphone 3GS in Feb 2010 I was really delighted with the voice-control dialling via Bluetooth. I speak UK English and the language is set to "English (United Kingdom)". I have about 1200 contacts in the iphone's database. The OS was OS3. It worked beautifully.
Since upgrading the OS to OS4 in mid-2010 the system has never worked properly. There are some archived discussions on this problem. It became clear that the early versions of OS4 only worked if you set the voice-control language to US English and spoke with a north-american accent. In subsequent versions of OS4 it seemed that things had improved, and I even posted a comment thanking Apple for fixing it! Sorry about that - I was wrong...
All that has happened is that Apple have slightly improved matters, in that searching the contacts list under voice control now sometimes works - but it is still very poor under Bluetooth. It usually gets the search wrong - and the quality of the Bluetooth communication when using Voice Control is very poor. You can't hear the search responses clearly. I don't think that there is anything wrong with my Bluetooth connection, per se, as phone conversations over Bluetooth are just fine. The problem is only with voice-control via Bluetooth. I am currently on OS 4.3.3 (8J2).
Does anyone else find that Voice-control dialling via Bluetooth is unreliable, using a 3GS on OS4, speaking in a language other than US English?
Maybe someone has a way of making it work properly?

in the same boat with a 2006 bmw. the button on the steering wheel dials the last number that was dialed from the cars system, it doesn't behave like default "action" button that is on bluetooth headsets -- that is the issue.
Is there some way to 1) remap the button in the car (doubtful) or 2) have the car dial a "phone number" that tells the phone to respond with the voice command through the bluetooth system (maybe, but also doubtul)
