Using Hermes/TyTn. I have found that using MS VC 1.6 with announce incoming calls activated, that when a call comes in where the number is masked, and therefore it cannot announce who it is, it simply does nothing and you miss the call. If the call does not have number masking it works fine, announces who it is or the number calling. Anyone found this and if so a work around?

Hello All,
Would anyone know of such feature. in the nokia e90 there is a feature that when the person gets a phone call it speaks out the contact name using a voice does any one if there is the same is available for hermes, thank you all for all the great efforts
microsoft voice command does this however it is a big file if thats all your after. it also reads out messages...
Different than Micorosoft Software
Thanks, I am aware of this Microsoft Software, but I guess you have to record the contact name using your voice? in the new nokia you dont have to do so
"I guess you have to record the contact name using your voice"
No, if the number is in your cantacts with a name then it will tell you that "whoever" is calling.
I like MS VC as it allows anyone to use voice commands to call or bring up apps without you having to record ANY voice tags.
Cheers...

Yes, I can confirm build 19209 does NOT announce incoming calls. Has anyone tried a diff build that works?
Hi, did you check the relevant boxes (i.e. "phone" in the voice command settings to voice enable them?
On another note, does version 1.621725 support voice dialing and voice activation of apps? Somehow I'm not able to map a button to activate voice command's listening function. Any ideas?

With my TyTn2, I remember certain ROMs would not work with certain builds of VC. So maybe we can list here the TP2 ROMs and VC builds that we've tried and failed so others can pick up until finally someone gets a combination that's 100% working.
I'll start:
ROM: 1.19.707.2 (51489) WWE, VC 1.6.19209 = no incoming call announcement
I'll continue
ROM 1.19.401.0
MSVC 1.6.19209
I installed a newer version of Voice Command (1.6.21725) and did this little reg change:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3735744&postcount=14
I think it should work with 1.6.19209
Now I have incoming call anouncement (quite loud). BUT the ringer is very soft and the announcement stops after 3 times WITH the ringer very soft. So, you may miss a call.
Anyone knows how to shut off the incoming call announce DURING a call? It is very annoying if you have call waiting and talking to someone and someone else calls you. VC would announce the caller and you can't hear the person you're talking with.
Ok. Here is one for you all. I have gone in and checked everything that applies under msvc properly. My incoming calls are announced, as well as e-mails. It will not, however, announce sms!? Anyone else have this problem? I am running Valkyrie Firestorm 4.8.23506 ROM...also msvc 1.6.19214
Any help would be appreciated.
This is all due to the new Broadcom BT drivers in recent WM6.5 builds. They are much better drivers than the old ones. There is nothing you can do to fix this. MS will need to update VC for a resolution, but since they are planning on replacing it I wouldn't hold my breath.
This is really bugging me, I am used to having VC announce calls on my Diamond. Check out post 82 at this thread:

It seems as though the original Pro was having the same problem in the beginning. The fix kind of worked for me. This is the last thing I need to make my phone perfect
Hi,
So I compiled all the MS voice command fixes into a thread.
And out came the MS Voice command config app. The mortscript app will back up your current settings and allow you to update them.
If you want to test any of the features posted there that are not in the release version, let me know and i will send you an update to test.
The MS Voice Command Config app.
Is there a way to enable calling out caller ID / names (on speaker phone) on incoming calls. This feature is available on other phones and would be nice to have on TP2.
MS Voice Command will do this. I don't know what carrier you have, but my TP2 from Verizon has MS Voice Command installed on the stock ROM.
I have the option to pick 10 friends which I can call without burning up my minutes with Verizon. I wonder what would happen if I put my google voice number to the list, and start making/receiving calls from now on with my google voice number. Will I be able to call within the US and Canada for free?

If you google how to do it then it should work, but might only work incoming or outgoing calls, not both. Most likely incoming I think. When you USED to dial out, it would always dial the same number, but now, it dials a different number to dial out and isnt always the same. Google it and I am sure you can find a tutorial somewhere.
Add your GV# to FnF then get Flex Dialer Pro from the Market. Once setup it will call out using your GV#. That way all calls coming & going are free.

It works for outgoing calls if you have the old google voice apk. the new one on the market uses multiple numbers instead of connecting to the same server everytime. here you it is. this is the one I use it always dials out the same number http://dl.dropbox.com/u/7628419/com.google.android.apps.googlevoice.apk Do NOT UPDATE!

This is correct for outgoing calls.
For incoming calls, you can add your google voice number to your F&F and then set Settings -> Calls -> Caller ID (incoming) to "Display my google voice number."
You then lose caller ID, but the calls are free.
More hassle than its worth imo.
Using the older .apk you'll have to add 2 numbers to your FnF. One for outgoing calls & your GV#. The outgoing number does sometimes change depending on your location as far as I can tell. If you set it up as I suggested earlier you'll use only your GV# in FnF.

I did a search on the forums and didn't find any relevant threads, so I'm creating this one.
I have my Google Voice app set to show a prompt asking which number I want to use before each call. However, I've noticed that on occasion the call will go through using my carrier line before I even make a selection on the prompt. I tested this further and set Google Voice to always use Google Voice line to make calls, then I made calls to another number I have access to. After several test calls, I found that about half the time, the call still goes through my carrier line. There wasn't any indication on my phone that it was using the carrier line or Google Voice line.
If I use the Google Voice app to make a call, it will always use my Google Voice line, even though it's going through the phone's stock dialer app.
I'm wondering if anyone else has similar issues and what solutions there might be to fix this. I wanted to replace the stock dialer with Google's dialer app and Google Contact app, but it seems that Google's dialer app is not compatible with the Mate SE/7x.
Can anyone think of a solution? I think that by somehow making the stock dialer delay for 2-3 seconds before each call, it would give enough time for Google Voice prompt to show up and freeze the dialer until I make a choice. I'm not sure how to do this, though.
Alternatively, are there any good dialers to replace the stock one?
I am having a similar issue on my Honor 7X and my wife's 6X. GV has been working great for months on both phones. Now (I think we noticed it in late April) when someone calls our Primary Phone # it doesn't get routed to GV Voice Mail, it goes to the Carrier's VM. For my wife, when someone calls her GV # it doesn't ring on her phone and is routed to her carrier VM. When she sets removes her "Linked Number" then calls to her GV # are routed to GVM but do not ring on her phone.
I have tried installing an older version of GV, no luck, and I have since been updated to EMUI 8 (Android 8.0) and I still have the same problem. I'm wondering if it's a carrier issue/change? We use Consumer Cellular (ATT network). When I go into Call Forwarding in Call Options it will not let me set a Call Forwarding number and tells me "Unexpected Network Response."
Hopefully someone will fix this soon. My wife uses her GV# for work.
Having the same issue, it's not consistent, some calls go to gv some to carrier vm...
