Is there speech to text software for WM6?

Ive seen speech to text software for Pc's and desktops but i wanted to know if there is speech to text software especially for GPS software like TOM Tom7 so i can just say street address instead of typing them while im driving...will make alot of things easier for me while driving.

you seruous..141 people lookedat this and nobody has any clue of if there is speech to text software..like the one for PC that does the alien voice

this question has been asked before and it seems as if the answer is no.

However a work around that would involve time consumption and copy and paste, but would work for emails and text - would be signing up for a Jott.com account. Its free and essetaily you call a dedicated number for your account talk to the system and then it emails you a copy of the chat you just had. You could then pull up the email assuming you have it set up on your phone, copy and paste. This is a lot of work to simply be lazy not to type it, and i guess the fact you're copying/pasting negates the whole concept of dictating so that you do not have to type anything, but hey it would work. Just not so much for TOM TOM7. there i would recommend a service like telenav.com. they have a function on their gps software that allows you to dictate to it your destinations and so forth.

Only responding because no one else has. Don't consider myself to be an expert in this arena, but I remember this question being asked and researched several months ago. As I remember (at that time) no one found anything that is currently available.
Some interesting work going on out there - http://www.digitalfuturesoft.com/texttospeechproducts.php and I currently use Jott (not something that would work for what you're looking for, but a great service). Sorry I couldn't be more helpful - hope someone gives you (and me) a better answer.

haha funny as i was editing about Jott it was also recommended, awesome.

This is a link about a regular cell phone a few years ago that had this type of technology. You would think it would be available for PPC.

Anyone know if this is available for download anywhere? Looks like a great application, like vlingo for Blackberry.

Hello guys, It happens for me to be blind (not completely) so I know about TTS software. The only one good is the “Mobile Speak” from “CodeFactory”. There are some problems with this software for example:
1) It is not free.
2) It is expensive.
3) It can not be cracked (as I know).
4) It works with sim car lock.
5) It can not help you with the GPS because it can not read graphics. You need a GPS software that displays some messages as text and not graphics.
I hope I helped you.

Anyway to change the voice that reads sms outloud?

You know the lady voice that announces when the battery is almost dead, when you get a text message and reads it to you and all the other stuff...is there any way to change that text to speech voice to a different female voice? I know there are several other voices that are available but not sure how it would be changed on wm 6.1

First off, what app is doing that for you?

huh???!!

Are you sure your using a diamond for that? I have used a diamond for months now and have not discovered that feature!! please provide further details as to what device you have and which country bought in etc.
interesting....

I think I know what he's talking about, which is he has MS Voice Command installed.
As far as I know, it isn't possible to change the voices on MSVC but if anyone can prove me wrong please do, as I'd love a different set of voices as well

He's talking about Voice Commander. When you receive an email / sms you can run it and say 'Read SMS' or 'Read Email' and it will read any unread emails /sms
Very handy, esp. when driving
I would also love to know how to change the voice though

Come on now, of course I know what freakin' phone I'm using. That's like asking someone if they know what kind of car they drive and if they are sure about it.
Here's what you do to enable it:
Settings>Voice Command>
Check 'Enabled'
Check 'Messaging', 'Status' & 'Phone' boxes
The go to 'Notifications' and check 'Announce notifications through device speaker or wired headset only'
[/LIST]
Those directions above will read out loud the person calling you when you get a call, the person who sent you a SMS and what the SMS says, will read to you any email including the sender and subject line, but not the email and will also notify you when your battery is gonna die.
Trust me, it's a major attention-getter when your phone reads a text message to you when it comes in and people around you are like wtf was that. Plus it's great if you are lying in bed or something and your phone is across the room...you can hear what the message says and whether or not it's worth getting out of bed for. :-D
But anyway, if anyone knows how to change the voice please respond. Thanks!

Voice Command isn't installed on all Diamonds as standard and as I stated, there is no way to change the voices, I have searched for this myself before with no luck.

cool!

This sounds like an excellent app! I tried locating it on my UK O2 spec diamond and could not find so if anyone has got a cab file please post. I will search google now and i'm sure i'll find it and post if no-one beats me to it.
Man i'm learning new sh!t about my phone everyday. Cheers guys i know i have not answered your question but you have helped me finding something new
nice one!

pretty sure you cant change the voice but i know there's a registry tweak to slow the voice down witch makes it easier to understand. I've just remembered I'm sure there's the tweak in Advance config hope this helps

yeah i have this enabled on my phone and its the best when your laying in bed and wonder if its worth looking at. I do wish it was a more sexier voice like sigourney weaver from planet earth, and a little slower would be nice. IT came stock on my sprint diamond fyi, im surprised other versions dont have it

I have a sprint diamond and mines only talks when someone sends me a text message marked urgent and thats it. I have all the tabs checked on VC in the settings menu. am I missing somthing?

I guess I'm missing it too because mine doesn't say anything.

You don't have it setup correctly, that's why.
Go into Voice Command and do this:
- Check all the boxes you want to use this service. (Phone, Messaging, Status, Etc.)
- Highlight 'Messaging' then click on 'Options' button then UNCHECK 'High Priority Messages Only' and CHECK 'Announce New Messages'. Do the same steps for others like 'Phone' and 'Status' to change it's options. Make sure you highlight it first.

Text Message Software

I was curious if there was an alternative to the default text messaging software. The main reason I don't like it is that it is a little plain. So if you know of any it would be great if you could point me to it with a link or just give me a name. I have done some searching but could not find anything.
Thanks,
Bob Hoil

Hey, There is something that is similar, but a little bit nicer (has smileys, and stuff), but still a little plain looking. It's called Shogunmark? if i remember correctly :S

I really like Birdsoft's Extreme Text
This is not the actual company's website, it is down for some reason, but you can still download a trial from this site and even buy it from this site.
If you have pictures loaded for your contacts it shows them, and it also threads your sms and will even allow for hyperlinks to be clicked on. I only have WM6 and it works great for threading your conversations all without messing up your inbox or anything. All this program does is just reference your inbox and merely just groups your conversations by contact in nice looking app for you. You can install and uninstall without it messing up your messagin settings or losing any sms cuz its a stand alone program that just merely looks at your inbox and references it as I said before. Only downside is if someone sends a MMS, all you will see in the program is the message they sent with the pic/video. You woiuld then have to go into your actual message inbox to look at the pic/video.

try pocketcm

Extreme Text works well, looks good

I use Extreme Text also, and really like it. It looks nicer, and it types smoother - there is no lag in landscape mode from keypress to display, as there seems to be in the standard message app, in my experience. And it integrates fine with the standard message app - you can use them interchangeably.

Thanks for all of the posts and suggestions I will be sure to check them out. If anyone knows of anymore I can try out it would be great if you could post them.
Thanks,
Bob Hoil

Txt Msg software
You can also use iMov messenger....very convenient and simple

I like sms-Chat by Vito, But you have to have the most recent version, Version 1.10 has a bug and you can't see your text as you type in landscape... Version 1.15 should fix that bug..

Voice Commander Confusion

OK so Voice Commander 1.6 is installed as stock ROM and works fine. My sister has a LG Env2 phone and when she hits the space bar the text messages are spoken again. It seems like the same voice and program, is there a way to have a message text stated again.
I know I can get it to speak it when a message first arrives but sometimes I miss it and only hear part of it. It would be nice to have it repeat the message. Anyone know if it does that? I don't know what operating system the LG Env2 uses so if anyone knows that would be great too.

The Env2 uses a java based OS, the voice software that is uses is Lg's proprietary voice software. AFAIK the text cannot be repeated in MSVC.

Dang
OK thank you. Does anyone know of a program that can be installed that reads your messages like MSVC, and speaks them to you? I saw something on a website but it has a monthly service cost.

Hiding Certain SMS/Text Messages

Does anyone know of a good Text Message hiding program that works like EZ Secret SMS? I've been using version 1.2 and it looks like crap on the Touch Pro. I would stick with it but it seems to stop working in 6.5.3. I don't really care how much it costs as longs as it's good.

agree, this is the only good way around it period.
Guys i would like a program too, but at the end of the day if the message isn't there then they wont see it.

Agreed, but you can't avoid a sms coming in at the wrong time.

what about version 2.0?
http://handheld.softpedia.com/get/SMS/Ez-Secret-SMS-59592.shtml

I actually tried 2.0 way back when and wasn't a fan. 2.0 was created before 6.1 even came out i believe.

is there a way to delete the sms text messages from the sim card?

Will this work?

Hmm.. Sounds like you should try SKB Sms Manager or you can try SKB Mobile Safety Suite if you want to hide messages AND pictures AND contacts.
