better Voice Speed Dialing? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

According to ATT_Tilt.pdf, in order to use Voice Speed Dial you have to go to Start -> Programs -> Tools -> Voice Speed Dial. Problem with that is... if you have the ability to navigate through the menu you presumably also have the ability to dial numbers.
Is there a way to make it so that you can do voice speed dialing without needing to go into the Voice Speed Dial application? ie. so that you can just say "Call Whomever" at whatever screen you're phone is currently at and have it dial that number?

Just remap your PTT button to activate Voice Dial. Just one quick press and start talking.

Meteor Speed Dial Position 1

I am trying to set up speed dial position 1 for voicemail but each time i try to assign the vodafone '121' voicemail number to it I get a message saying it is reserved. When I try to us speed dial 1 it says teh voicemail number is incorrect. How do I change the number assigned to speed dial 1.
I'm not for certain off the top of my head since I don't have a smartphone right now, but I believe if you go into Settings/Phone there's an option for Services. Select Voice/Text Messages and Get Settings. In there you should be able to change the voice mail number to the correct one.
Hello,
Try: start/settings/phone/call options/ and fill in the voice mail number.
Good luck

How do I make speedial 1 dial my voicemail like it used to?

I use att and my speed dial 1 used to dial my voicemail, now it does not and I cannot seem to program it under the speedial menu, I can only program numbers greater than 2. Anyone have any ideas?
in dial pad, press 1 and hold it until it dials out.
I think he's saying that doesn't work now... how can he fix it.
go into settings - phone - voice mail and text messaging - get settings, then make sure you have the voicemail number set as this is associated with speed dial 1...

exactly, i was just going to answer that, but you beat me to it.
whatever number you enter in that setting will be set to number 1 speed dial. you may need to check with your carrier to get the correct number.
its already set in there, thats the funny thing, the voicedial number is in there but when I hold down 1 nothing happens!

voice dial and program launch

Hello
I have an att tilt and am a new user. My question is about the voice dial feature and voice launch feature.
In looking at the manual it seems like after you set up the voice feature for each number or program, you still need to go to start / tools / voice dial just to launch it. Is it me or does this seem to defeat the purpose of voice activating a program? You need to hit a series of keys when it might be just as quick or quicker to just launch the program or dial the number.
Does anyone have any suggestions to maybe make this function more easily accessable when you are lets say driving?
Also does anyone know if bluetooth headsets that say they support voice dialing will activate this function?
Thank you
Adam
Your best choice would probably be a bluetooth headset. On those, you just press one button and say who you want to call and it calls.
There's also a program called Voice Commander - but it's not that good yet, it has voice recognition.. just google it or search this forum.
If you're not driving, using smartdial is probably the way to go. Your Kaiser/Tilt should come with it. You just start typing person's name and it appears in the list.
Another opion might be to use HTC Home - you will have about 7-8 boxes with people's names or photos.. you just tap on in and it calls that person.
Oh, and by the way... you can go to start/settings/personal/buttons and assign a hardware button to that voice application.
Hope this helps..
Don't you have a button that activates the voice dial? In my TyTN there is a button on the right side of it. I used to push it accidentally all the time - it made me so annoyed that I turned it off.

Speed Dial - Voicemail

Hi,
it seems, I am not able to edit the speed-dial #1. On #1 I have "VOICEMAIL 121" .. but this is of course not the reight number. When trying to edit I will forwarded to the security setting of the phone !?
Any ideas ?
regards
kuzco1
so you are saying you have went into the dialer, speed dial where it shows all your numbers stored in speed dial and tried to change it but wont let you? correct?
Or from the dialer screen Menu -> Options -> Click the Services tab in the Services tab choose Voice Mail and Text Messages the select Get Settings... buttons and you can change the voice mail number there.

Dialing Shortcuts for Speed Dialing Various Voice Mail

First of all, I am really liking the Fuze. Adding tweaks all over the place.
The only thing I miss from my Treo is the one touch button that allowed me to call my voice mail (cell and/or work) with the various keystrokes already programmed in, making dialing, deleting messages, etc. a lot easier.
Any options here?
thanks,
George
Just hold down the 1 key on the dialer
Or, if you run phoneAlarm, you can set your voicemail number in the VM dialer option so the phone will ask you if you want to dial voicemail when you touch the voicemail alarm icon.
