O.k. I will give you the hack and better yet, some utility links for hundreds of hacks for your device, including two Freebies for MSVC that you may need. But first u should know.... MSVC works great on any WM2003 like my iPaq 6315. But for the life of me MSVC does not support WM5 BT. I said BT, not device. MSVC works great on any device with BT, but it does not support communication via BT. If you make a call using MSVC from device, the call will come over your BT, but that is supported by the BT smartphone/ppc with or without MSVC.

I also don't like voicetags. You can't, for example, enable voicedial and command it to dial a number u wrote on a napkin while driving, or a number on a spreadsheet, unles you have added them to contacts and assigned voice tags. Besides voicetags take up ROM space. MSVC is an excellent application with 5 star reviews. Sometimes it's a little frustrating, cause nothing is a perfect science, yet, but for the most part MSVC is incredibly usefull

The hack offers a solution, but not for everyone, like me with a Motorala H700 BT headset. Let me explain, but here is the hack....

You must have Microsoft Voice Command installed to use this hack. Open up a registry entry program such as Resco Registry that comes with Resco Explorer 2005. Then goto "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\OEM\VoiceCommand\Path". Change the default value from "\Windows\SDDialer.exe" to "\Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe". Now you should be able to activate Micrsoft Voice Command by pressing the connect button on your bluetooth headset. You must download a regedit app during trial and do this. i would buy one, cause you never know when u need one. The PPC is not like a table top pc, you can't just go to a run command and type regedit. On PPC u need a decent regedit application anyway. Especially if you hang around these forums.

As a matter of fact I talk a lot about this in HOFO, http://www.howardforums.com and if u go there, see MDA hacks 5 start forum.

The hack changes the registry to point to Program Files\Voice Command\VoiceCMD.exe instead of voicespeed. Now that does not guarantee that MSVC will clearly communicate with you BT headset consistently, cause some have had great success using their BT headsets, while others, unfortunately me, have not with the Motorola h700. So reserach the link on the blog I gave u for MS, cause some others talk about what models this does work, could save someone time before they buy a BT headset or car kit.

That is where BT SoundON comes in to play. http://www.pdaphonehome.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=54951&perpage=20&pagenumber=1 A great utility, must HAVE! Cause you can use for any sound from WM5 on BT, like games, when in private office, etc. The problem with MSVC and some BT headsets or car kits, is that after the hack, and soft reset MSVC and BT work nicely, but after the first call, MSVC stops on ur BT.

Also see Tweak2k2 has hack cheap utility worth owning. http://www.tweaks2k2.com/ and if u want a Freebie just for the MSVC hack, this one works nice and does not require soft reset.... http://www.burling.co.nz/Default.aspx?tabid=105&def=ErrorMessage

Good luck
