This has worked about 1000% better than just Voice Dialer for me.
First post on these forums...

I found this forum because I just got an Eris yesterday and couldn't understand why the voice dialer wouldn't work. Reading this thread is really depressing. Voice dial is one of the things I really want on my phone. I'm coming from a Samsung Omnia (Windows mobile) and that phone had a voice dial that worked 95% of the time.

So is Cheeto12's fix quoted above the best fix out there? Anyone else tried it? I just got the phone and am not real tech savvy so I'm not excited about installing extra apps and having to use two of them just to get an installed app to work.

Is the Incredible any better on this score?

Thanks,
john
