Download the LG Flash Package and you can root with it. It has a folder for root tools.

Then download Recovery Manager. It will install it for you.

Hi everyone.

First post but long time reader.

I have an un-rooted Vivid I updated the other day through the phone dial trick. Everything went fine with the update except all my previous apps appeared except for the voice dialer. I had a shortcut set on one of the screens and the label showed up with the little android guy as the image. When I clicked on it the message said the app is no longer associated. Sure enough I went through all the apps and it was not there.

I tried to install the apk and checked off the box to allow installation of unknown apps. It appeared it was working then I got a message during the install that the it did not install. I tried a few times just to be sure.

I also noticed that I am not able to use my bluetooth ear piece to accept a call or voice dial.

Does anyone have the voice dial app working or was it left out of the update? I tried the google voice app and that doesn't work with bluetooth.

I have a message to HTC regarding this as well. If there is no solution here, I will post what they plan to do if anything.

Edit 4/2/12 see the posts on pages 3&4 for a Voice dialer that works pretty good so far in ICS. There may be others that work just as well but I'm tired of trying to find them. Until (doubtful) google or HTC fixes this issue I'll stick with I have now.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
I don't have a solution, but I have the same problem.

My Blueant Q2 headset has a command to activate the phone's voice command. The phone said my phone doesn't support that feature.

That's unfortunate because I use it all the time.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
Over 170 views and only one response.

Does everyone else have the voice dialer like we had in GB? If so can you post the apk?

Using bluetooth without it is very difficult to say the least. It's even more distracting than just picking up the phone and talking except that's not an option in many area I travel through.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] homeslice976:

Also an app in the market called Hands-free voice dial that might work
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
After reading your post I tried messing with the voice dialer to see if I could help. It turns out it's not even installed on my phone and its not on the market. Voice actions are supposedly alot better and I wonder if the dialer was done away with in favor of voice actions. One problem with this is on my headset it now does nothing but beep at me when I hit the call button where as it brought up the dialer before. Also I held down search and tried to voice dial through voice actions and it couldn't pick up my voice through the headset. Right after I was messing with it I got a call and the caller could here me fine through my headset. So I dunno what the deal is. Oversight maybe? I'm fine with voice actions replacing the dialer but not if my button on my headset does nothing and i can't use my headset to use it.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Okay, so it was a fluke, voice actions picks up my voice now. However, my call button still doesn't activate it. I have to unlock the phone and hold down search to activate it. I can make calls through it fine however so i think that is the solution. I believe the lack of support of a voice dialer button on a headset is most likely an oversight. Sucks but I hope this at lead helps you out for now.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
Okat HTC got back to me and here is their response. It fixed part of the issue but still no voice dialer app. I can now answer an incoming call by pushing the button on the earpiece. So far only half a fix. I'll try to find a decent dialer on the market. The google one sucks.

I can certainly help you with Bluetooth functionality on your HTC Vivid. I essentially want to clear some Bluetooth data from your phone and then see if the issue continues. First let's navigate to home>menu>settings>Bluetooth. Tap on the settings icon to the right of your Bluetooth device's name and let's select unpair.

Now let's return to settings and tap on Apps, then All. Please tap on Bluetooth share and select clear data and confirm. If your Bluetooth headset has an option to clear its partnerships, please do that as well.

We need to restart the phone. To do this let's just hold down power and select restart. When the phone boots back up are you able to pair with and properly use your Bluetooth headset?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
yeah I can answer calls, and if I hold it down, it'll redial the last caller in my call log. But yeah if i just hit the button, it makes a beep and does nothing. I actually primarily use my headset for music playback, its a motorola SD-9 stereo bluetooth headset, but it works for calls too. I had to re pair it after the ICS update.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
Ours do the same thing. Thanks for confirming I'm not nuts. I hope they didn't rush the update through just to be first with the update to ICS.

I have an older Moto HS850. I'm searching for a decent visor set since I now wear hearing aids. It's a bit tough to hear with the BT earpiece as it is since I have to have an aid out. Until I can get a decent voice dialer app I'll hold off on blowing money for a half assed solution.

Hope HTC comes through and develops a dialer for ICS. At least you'd know it'll be functional. So far I've tried three apps off the market and none have worked for what I need.

I guess I can always switch my phone out with my daughter if I really need to. I told her not to update yet since I was willing to be the guinea pig. She never uses her voice dialer. I would feel like taking a step back but GB was not bad at all.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
I agree, gingerbread was great, I was hesistant to update but figured might as well. Hopefully HTC issues a fix for this problem quickly.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
I tried holding down the Search to activate Voice Actions. The Vivid seemed to use my Blueant Q2 mic. However, Voice Actions definitely doesn't work as well as the Voice Dialer for dialing contacts.

I'll be monitoring this thread for solutions.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
I found a solution that isn't completely eligant buy works.

I downloaded Vlingo and setup the un-car option to auto listen for commands. Don't leave Vlingo in-car on fulltime else it will drain your battery.

However, when I signal phone commands from my header, it fires up Vlingo. Set it to default to in-car Vlingo. From the you can say "Hey Vlingo..." and speak your command. My Blueant Q2 headset still says "Feature not available" but it works.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Sebring5:
Vlingo virtual assistant is the best.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
Thanks fro the recommendation for vlingo. I haven't tried that one yet. Seems cummbersome to use. The voice dialer app was so easy to use. Everything else so far takes too many steps.

I'm checking out the new Motorola Roadster2. There is a Moto app that is made to use for it. So far all the reviews I read did not say anything about it working with ICS or not working. Most of the gripes were from Iphone users. I may hold off a little while until such reviews start coming in.

The Voice Dialer app we had in GB was an Android app built into GB. I had a version from 2.3.4 on my retired Sony phone that I bluetoothed over to my Vivid. It installed but would not work prpoperly. I tried disabling the voice thingy from ICS and it still didn't work. When I had the GB VD installed ICS was sluggish so I removed it.

Here is the latest response from HTC:

We apologize that you are unable to use the handsfree dialing over Bluetooth. Unfortunately, the Voice Dialer app was removed with the Ice Cream Sandwich update. There is no information available as to when or if this will be added again on the device as it was a change made by Google.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zacgoesrawr:
This might fix it,

I took the Bluetooth.apk from a Cyanogenmod and it got my wiimote to connect (see my post: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1560647) it should lift any nasty restrictions that HTC's bluetooth version has put on anything.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
My issue isn't being able to pair my device it has to do with an app that Android left out of ICS that worked so well in GB.

Thanks for the info though. What can you do with the Vivid when it's paired with a wiimote?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
I understand vivid x2. I had used Vlingo before but then switched to the native Voice Dialer for the simplicity.

My problem with most 3rd party voice dialers is the only recognize and expect first names. With over 600 contacts, that won't work for me. Vlingo and Voice Dialer did use first and last names.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Im having another bluetooth related issue. I primarily use my headset for listening to music. Since the ics update my music will go into random skipping sessions. It's not related to 4g or wifi as I mowed my lawn using a regular set of headphones and didn't have any issues. There is almost a pattern to the skipping actually. If kill pandora or Google Music and restart it'll fix the issue for a little bit but it'll start up again eventually. No issues before the update.

Bluetooth Hands-Free Dialing Broken

After reading this thread, I tested my bluetooth hands-free connection in my car. It's BROKEN. My Vivid will connect to the car's audio system via BT, but it will not recognize my voice requests to call a number. It was working last week before I did the ICS "upgrade."

I expected something to not work, but I didn't expect something as critical as a safety feature. I use the hands-free dialing for obvious safety reasons. I have a feeling that HTC is catching heck about this one. They are about to catch some more from me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
I hope this isn't a case of "you got your update now shutup". Hopefully they'll release an update for bluetooth and voice dialing
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
E-Mails to HTC, AT&T

This is what I sent to HTC and At&T:

The ICS "upgrade" for the Vivid has broken the built-in voice dialing capability. This is a serious SAFETY issue. I use the Vivid with bluetooth and my car's audio system to make and receive hands-free calls. This is a major setback.

I don't know if Google or HTC is responsible for this, but it MUST be fixed ASAP. Third-party software may or may not work, but they should not even be necessary.

And to AT&T I added: Use some of the money you're spending on Dr. Dre to make the phone work as it should.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
I called HTC and suggested trying to find something on the market.

This is very bad for google and now HTC if they can't implement this into ICS.

Here is what I posted on cnet and PC Mag:

Unfortunately, the ICS update does not have a compatible bluetooth Voice Dialer app like GB had. You can no longer push the button on your earpiece and voice dial. You can accept a call and hangup only.

ATT says to talk to HTC, HTC says google removed the Voice Dialer. It worked so well in GB it's like taking a step backwards. With so many laws changing prohibiting holding and talking on cell phone this is not good.

HTC suggested the app market. Nothing I've seen so far works with simply pushing the BT button. They all work off of speakerphone or phone mic..
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] dragonsoul84:
I've heard rumors on the web that authorities are trying to crack down on any form of distraction while driving, including any firm of talking on the phone. Maybe omitting a way to dial out while driving is the first step. Anyway you look at it though, its removing safety because if people can't answer with a headset, they'll answer normally. Next they are gonna be outlawing GPS, just watch
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
Testing with Vlingo

I already had Vlingo on my Vivid, so I tried it. The first efforts did not go well, but my second try resulted in most times succeeding in placing a call. My car has built-in Bluetooth and a built-in microphone above the driver's seat. I use Bluetooth just for calls, no music (I have Sirius-XM and I can plug my iPod into the audio system).

Vlingo has an In-Car feature that can be used hands-off. I was able to get it to "wake up" and respond to my command to call a contact without me touching the phone. I found that I needed to wait a second or two before telling it what to do. It does take a few seconds to process, so it's a little slower than the native voice dialer and my Bluetooth system.

One issue I found was that the Vlingo instructions say that the In-Car feature can be launched whenever a Bluetooth headset is connected. However, starting my Bluetooth connection between the car and the phone never would start up Vlingo or the In-Car feature. So, I will have to make a couple of extra taps when I get in the car to get the program running.

This may be a work-around that I can use, but I am still annoyed that Google would drop such a simple but necessary feature.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] zacgoesrawr:
Oh gotcha. It's a life saver for olaying roms also It's like a remote for Netflix. I can be even more lazy then I already am ;)

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
Vlingo seems to work the best so far. I can get my phone to wake up from my BT headset, but it doesn't unlock. I can still voice dial, but I have to do it blindly while it just displays the lockscreen.

The Gingerbread voice dialer used to unlock the phone too.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
I have a charger in the car and the Vivid set to always be on while charging, so I can have the screen visible. But of course, I should not be looking at the screen while driving. Kind of defeats the purpose. :)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
I have a charger in the car too with holder just to the left of line of sight. It's a great setup. With hundreds of contacts, there is a greater chance of dialing an incorrect contact. The screen helps me catch it quicker than waiting for it to verbally repeat it back to me.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
Response to AT&T

After the AT&T support rep suggested I use the Search button and speak my command, I sent this response:

I guess I wasn't clear enough in my original message. First, the problem began after I installed the Android 4 (ICS) upgrade. Second, my main point is that I do not want to have to handle the phone to make a call while driving.

Let me summarize. Before the upgrade, I could turn on bluetooth on my HTC Vivid and it would connect to the bluetooth built into my car's audio system. The car has a microphone above the driver's seat. To make a call, all I had to do was to tap a button on my steering wheel and speak a command ("call house") and the phone would place the call. After the upgrade, the phone no longer recognizes voice commands. I can still receive calls and talk over the bluetooth/audio system, but I can no longer place calls.

Either Google and/or HTC did not implement the built-in voice dialer application in the version of Android HTC and AT&T released last week. To have to handle the phone and touch buttons on the screen is a step backward and a safety issue while driving.

This is nothing you can fix. My intent was to express my extreme dissatisfaction with this obvious problem and hope that decision makers at AT&T, HTC and Google address this failure as soon as possible. To eliminate a useful tool that improves driving safety makes absolutely no sense at all.

I know that I am not the only one who has communicated this problem to AT&T and HTC. Please pass this on to those who can do something to fix this problem. As a customer of ATT Wireless (Cingular, Bell South Mobility) since 1992, I expect better than this.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
I haven't heard back from HTC regarding this. I was doing more research on available apps and found several favorable mentions regarding the Cyberon Voice Commander :) app on the market. It's not a free app, but they do have a 48 hour return on it if you don't like it. The cost is $5.99. I purchased it and did as instructed regarding bluetooth. Restarted the phone, paired the bluetooth device and hit the call button with the app closed. The app opened and a voice came though the earpiece, I said my command and it asked if I wanted to call such and such. I replied yes and it connected.

So far this looks like a winner. It's too bad google decided to get rid of the very reliable and functional dialer app in GB.

I'll try this one for awhile and report if there's any issue along the way. I hope HTC or google recognizes the omission and makes it right. We should not have to rely on the app market for something that's been a standard feature in cell phones for well over ten years.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
vivid x2, does Cyberion Voice Commander support speaking first and last name? I have a lot of contacts and just recognizing first name won't do.

Good find.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
Yes it does, but if the name is programmed first and last or vis-a-vis you have to say both in the order they are entered. Also, if you have a home and mobile name for a person in the directory CVC would prompt you of which one to dial.

Also, it does wake the phone up and unlocks it when when pushing the command button on the BT device.

They have a website with FAQ's as well. I believe I read there is a 2000 contact limit. There is also an option in the configuration to have it ignore certain contacts.

I'll be using it more during the week as to how well it performs while on my commute back and forth to work.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
Vivid x2 any update on Voice Commander?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
Ditto, Vivid x2. Can you give us more feedback on Voice Commander?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
Cyberon Voice Commander

I went ahead and installed Cyberon Voice Commander based on Vivid x2's comments and other web postings. For me, it was PERFECT. It was like having the old built-in voice dialer.

Note: I have built-in bluetooth with my car's audio system and a microphone above my head. But I believe it will work with bluetooth headsets.

All I had to do was to tap a button on my steering wheel, and after the beep, I said, "Call [contact]." The system (the car I think) confirmed the call and then dialed it. I was able to make and complete calls. The main point was that I did not have to look at or touch the phone at any time. It even worked when the phone was in sleep mode. (It woke up when prompted to dial.)

You can even select contacts you want to call, or deselect ones you don't want to call. However, it did try to call an unselected contact when it misunderstood what I said.

For what I needed, Voice Commander is much better than Vlingo. It is strictly hands-off and very responsive. Yes, it does cost $5.99, but it is worth every penny to me to be able to make calls while driving without having to handle the phone. You have 48 hours to request a refund from their website.

There are some limitations, but they don't affect me. See their website at

www.cyberon.com.tw
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
So far so good with the earpiece I'm using. I found the default recognition setting to work the best. There were more errors when I tried other recognition settings. Also, when you go into the setting to deselect phone numbers you can long press on a name and have an option to play back the name. I found the it to be more accurate if you try to pronounce the name similar to how CVC says it in the phone number settings.

brucegil - I still prefer the dialer that was in GB. It's too bad we had to go through the market to try all the different apps out there. There may be more out there that are equal to this or better. I've about had it with trying what's out there.

willgill - What set up are you using to mount your phone?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] willgill:
I bought Cyberon Voice Commander too. It's working well for me. I like it better than Vlingo or any other voice dialing app. CVC doesn't try to do too much like a goofy Siri clone.

Vivid x2 my car mount is the Scosche window suction mount. It's $18 at Walmart believe it or not.

The holder part is universal. It has two small "fingers" on the bottom and the back has two sticky gels. The sticky gel holds well. When it loses its stickiness, I just wipe them down to renew.

Here's the link to what I have at Scosche.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:
Thanks. I'll look for it next time I'm at Wal-Mart.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] vivid x2:

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] brucegil:
Thanks. I corrected the URL in my post.

I'm glad to know that you and WillGill have confirmed what I found. Thanks for pointing me to CVC. That is exactly what this forum is about.

As to a mount, I just bought an iGrip mount from Smartphone Experts. My Vivid, with a small case, fits fine. The phone holder is not too big. I had an old mount I had bought years ago. But it would not work because the side bracket blocked the charger port on the phone.
