Z5 Compact - Voice search with Plantronics Voyager

Flaxo — Fri, 23 Oct 2015 09:40:18 GMT

Hi.

When i long press the answer button on my BT-Headset (Plantronics Voyager Legend) with a Iphone or Samsung it activates Voice search and Voice (S-voice) dialing for contacts etc.

But with my new Sony Xperia Z5 Compact it only apears a grey screen with the text "Initiating" and nothing else happens..

I have tryed to activate Google now, Bluetooth headset but it still dont work with BT.

Anyone knows why?

Probably a compatibility issue, you might want to contact the headphone manufacturer

Sony support couldnt help me. But if i install a Bluetooth launcher app and press the answer button i get to shoose betwen Google search and BT-launcher.

Tryed the safe mode but no difference. See the video what happends when i press the answer button. Note that google search blinks for a second (4sec in the video) and then the gray screen...

Something to suggest to the app developer and/or Google/android devs
