Re: Bluetooth headset...dialer "flashes" message then disappears
Update: Tried a variety of things I found on the web, including installing Bluetooth Launch and using it to specifically launch Google Now/Voice Search. That worked in a sense, in that pressing the button on either my ERA or my Parrot handsfree kit launched the right app. But the mike on the phone was listening, not the mike on the bluetooth headset or the handsfree kit. Limited usefulness. I went back and tried many different things with the "stock" Jelly Bean 4.1.2 dialer. I found the following workaround. Press the bluetooth voice dialing button. Count slowly to five. Then, speak your message such as "Call Betty Pauline Thomas at home." (BTW, making sure you use middle names in your Contacts, at least for people you call frequently, makes recognition a _lot_ more reliable.) When it then says "Call Betty Pauline Thomas at home? Say OK or Cancel" again count to five slowly and say "OK." I tried counting to three and counting to four and that didn't work, has to be five. And don't count too fast, or out loud. If others find the same solution works, then maybe the Android team can work on this now that it's (maybe) identified as a latency issue.
