Hi all,

I'm writing a voice recognition software for WM5.0 smartphone, I need to
capture the BlueTooth headset's button click event. This button triggers the
built in voice dial engine from microsoft, and I want to replace it.

I've used the following functions to capture the VK_APP3, which is send by
long-volume-down:
UnregisterFunc1
RegisterHotKey

according to the document, the key-press of BT handset seems to be
VK_VOICEDIAL (same as VK_F24), but I can't capture it using the same way as
for VK_APP3.

What can I do?

Thanks,
Qiang He

The app launched as a result of this button press is defined in the registry
(I forget the exact location of the key). Therefore you can replace the
value and have the system launch your application, then you don't have to
worry about the low-level key handling.

I would be really interested in testing this option if it works. I am an
occupational therapist working with persons with various disabilities and
activating a bluetooth headset is virtually impossible if the person is
unable lift their hands off their electric wheelchair.

Thanks ,
