Lol, get mad. I personally voice dial through my jawbone. Not sure how to do it on the actual phone.
You know, for future reference, we don't have to help you. You could have used the search function but you chose to make a new thread. Don't get snarky.
Now then, there's a Voice Dial app in the application drawer of stock roms. That is to say, it is close to YouTube in the app menu. If you don't have that, tell us what rom you're running.

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?

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.

sometimes I'm driving and remember something I need to do at home
I'd like to get my Kaiser and use some voice command like "create reminder in 2 hours: check bank account" or something like that
is there any software that can do it?
my voice command software is very limited

I remember seeing something like that on the Enterprise, Captain Picard would seemingly talk into thin air , and a disembodied female voice would do whatever he said, I can't remember what rom he was using though
For now you can link your voice recorder to button 6, though you will have to manually check it to remind yourself later.
LOL
Just to confirm, Picard was using voice recorder on his Kaiser. He used it to record all his Captain's logs as well.....
It's the best he could do..... and therefore perhaps the best you will Lemonhead.....
Good luck.
lol
I already expected to have to push some button before starting talking
but my voice command is seems very limited... I can only ask next appointment and things like that, but I can't create a new one
Hi, Folks,
I'm searching for a software to read the incoming SMS like the Blue&Me® by Fiat/Microsoft do.
I've found this app (TellMeText 1.1.0), but it has only one language (US English), and the language file is compiled with the executable app.
Anyone knows a app to do this function and a way to use the Gabriela Voice (Pt-BR) from iGo or something like this?
Thanks in advanced
If you have Microsoft Voice Command (MSVC) on your phone, you can set it to read incomming text messages, voice announce who is calling, and more Just be sure you really want it to do that before you turn it on.. It can be embarassing when someone TXT's you something questionable when you are in line at the bank or something... There is a feature where it will onyl read it when you have a bluetooth headset connection.. that is what I personally do...
I agree with Teej. I used the free/busy toggle cab to work around this. If I am not at work or somewhere I wouldn't want certain messages read aloud, I leave it free. If at work, I set it to busy. MSVC worked very well for me.
yes, MSVC is good, but reads the msg soooooo fast that you can berly understand what is happening. and the MSVC voice is sooo ennoying.anyway to fix it?

I haven't used it in a while since I am flashing roms constantly, but I know there is a registry hack where you can slow it down. Just Google it or search here. You can also edit voice recognition so that it is easier for it to pick up what you are say. Its a nice program, just very picky about installation and stuff so people don't like to always deal with it.
i just searched it, didnt find anything. prob didnt type the right info in search.
Is it any trouble if you can guide me ot the right path( regarding slowing the voice and voice recognition)
Appreciate it tilt4life2
this in an idea I like the sound of. Have you looked at the complete MSVC guide on this forum? It may hold a referance to the slowing down of the voices. Im guessing searching MSVC guide should find it or it may be linked in the Kaiser Wiki. Good Luck!
There is also TellMeText by Blondiesoft here and it's totally freeware:
http://www.blondiesoft.com/software/mobile/TellMeText/
It even announces the message before your notification goes off with its regular message tone.

Perhaps it has something to do with the threaded sms? I'm not sure. All I know is that it works fine on my TyTN II with WM6.0. In any event, I have decided to go with voice command instead.

Yes! the Kaiser Tweaks cab has the voice command settings in it. It's generically set to 4. Higher settings speeds the chick up, and lower settings slows her down.
Hope this helps.
You can search for Kaiser Tweaks in here to get the cab.
Cheers!

To change the voice's speed:
Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Speech\Voices"
Change the value of "DefaultTTSRate" from between 1 (slowest) and 10 (fastest). Default is 4. Experiment to discover what is right for you.
one of the biggest features for me was voice dialing over bluetooth. has anyone figured out how to initiate it?
eric b
im pretty sure you just open the voice dialer app with Bluetooth connected then talk it through the mic.
What did YOU tried e-dub?
EDIT: Sorry, I thought this was a thread to discuss the new features. My bad.

Wrong thread?
purely by accident... i discovered with my bluetooth (jabra extreme) that if i pressed the action button once, it opened the voice dialer! it's not quite as good as microsoft voice command (winmo people, you remember this), but it's pretty nice.

So solved.
Thx for posting the answer
Yes it works BUT, at least for me the voice dial app doesn't pick up the right name and it FCs right after all the time.
Sent from my Nexus One using XDA App
On my Jawbone Prime, I just long press the talk button. Works great!
All of the 3.0 Sense Roms I have tried including Business Sense 3.0 and OVO Community rom seem to have the seem bug when using the Google Voice Search. If I press the search button and say "call Bellagion, Las Vegas, Nevada" - the phone then looks up the number and dials it, however the phone never completes the call and says Network is Busy. Can anyone help with this?

This is the response I gave over in Nils 3.0 thread also:
"Just my hunch here.
When it dials the number, is there a '+' sign in front of it? Something like +1(999)999-9999? If so, you need to eliminate the '+' from the contacts entry and it will dial out successfully. This has been present on many ROMs I've used, and it's not specific to GV. Any numbers in your contacts list that have the '+' will experience the same issue."
Unfortunately, I am not referring to any number within my contacts....I am talking about when the phone looks up a location/number and then dials it.

I tried "Call Belliago Hotel, Las Vegas" works fine for me. On Shooter Rewind Sense 3.0.

Have you looked at the number the phone is dialing after GV looks it up? Does it have the '+' in front of it? Does it not show you the actual number in the dialer? I don't use GV to make calls, so I have no idea.

I just tried it with Shooter Remind - it makes like it is working but the call never connects. You will always get a busy signal and a message that says the network is busy.
My GV does this too. It does add the + if i tell it to call someone not on my contact list. I cannot find where to turn it off. Also the accuracy has decreased dramatically lately. Not sure if it's 3.0 or what but i used to be able to ask it something driving on the highway with two screaming kids in the back and it would be flawless.
