Still playing with it but you can do searches with it and update facebook too.

This doesn't work at all on my phone - anything I say, like "Call Jason" then just returns google results for that search term. However, that vlingo app works pretty well. Thanks!

Logged Jess217 Newbie Karma: +0/-0 Offline Posts: 1 Re: Voice Dialing « Reply #8 on: November 09, 2010, 09:29:58 PM » Make sure you have contacts searchable by google: Phone Settings --> Search --> Searchable Items Then, make sure "contacts" is checked.  Mine works just fine.  You can also hold down the search button (magnifying glass on the bottom right of the phone) to access the same google/phone search without having the google widget installed.  Logged onemoreday Newbie Karma: +0/-0 Offline Posts: 14 Re: Voice Dialing « Reply #9 on: November 10, 2010, 12:02:25 PM » like someone said earlier, if you have more than one phone number per contact (home, work, cell), you get the whole contact info, not just that one number...vlingo works; however, the same thing, with all of the contact info, then you have to look to press the number you want. have not hooked up my bluetooth yet, and will try that next; however, this might truly be a 2.2 upgrade "wait & see".
