Help Using Bluetooth w Voice Actions / GNow

[boxdog]

Hi there,

I have a GNex running JB 4.1.1 and was hoping the JB update would fix this problem.. Also searched but couldn't find the answer... the problem I have is that while my Bluetooth headset works fine for everything else, voice actions and Google now only want to listen to the mic in the phone. Is there a way to force it to use the BT if connected?

Edit - I tried using the button on the Bluetooth headset instead of tapping the mic icon on the display but I got the crappy Voice Dialler app instead. I am beginning to wonder if it is because the BT phone profile can't send anything more than telephone quality from the BT mic and Google decided it wasn't good enough quality compared to what it can recieve via the built-in mic.

If that's the case, sure, I dig that, but Apple's Siri can, and does, talk to you bidirectionally using Bluetooth, so it doesn't really make sense..

I was curious about this too. The voice dialer needs to be integrated into G-now, and they should make G-now launch via BT. Especially if they are using traffic and navigation as selling features for G-now, then why not have that launch via BT for safety?
