I just upgraded my Dash with the new WM6 ROM and the Voice Command does not announce incoming calls. It does announce incoming messages. When I had the T-mobile WM6 installed, it was working fine.
Does anyone know what the problem is?

Not sure why you are not getting announcements, but Voice Command is in the T-Mobile WM6 ROM and doesn't need to be installed. Your phone was probably using the ROM version at the time.
I know the T-mobile rom has it and it works fine but it does not work with the new htc wm6 rom. Messages are announced but not the calls.
Does anyone else have the same problem?
Yes, I have the same problem with the O2 WM6 ROM (xda Orbit) and Voice Command 1.6. (Voice Command is not included in this ROM). Messages are announced, calls not. It seems a generally problem. Many users in the ppc-welt forum report this issue with voice command and WM6.
I have the same problem with a s621 running WM6. I believe it is a pretty well know bug.
Voice Command announce Call fix?
Has anyone found a fix for the WM6 bug that prevents Voice Command 1.6 from announcing incoming calls over device or bluetooth. Microsoft seems clueless--even though the issue has been around for months. The T-Mobile WM6 ROM includes Voice Command, fixed it, and it announces calls over BT, so it can be done. But Voice Command installed on the HTC and Rogers ROMS (not included in the ROMS) just won't announce calls.
I really miss not having to fumble for the phone to see who is calling.

Any member has info as to wich rom cooked or not works with microsoft voice command mainly the notifications of messages and incomiong calls to the speakerphone ? please share your knowledge thanks in advance!
Another question might be... Does anyone know when MS is going to come out with a WM6 version of Voice Command?
Yes version 1.6 is made for WM5 and will run on WM6 but I have the same issues with all WM6 Rom's I have tried where it does not work with notifications or txt/email/phone calls.
What's odd is that it work's GREAT on the Wizard builds of WM6. I used VC on my Wizard with almost every different published ROM including more than a few of my own. It always worked flawlessly on that platform.
That is strange because for me, in WM6 I have only ever been able to get the "Voice Commands" part of the program to work.
It never reads any notifications and someone told me it will read txt and emails too but I have never found a way to make it do that either.
VC 1.6 does work with WM6, but requires patches
I apologize, I cannot put my hands on the files with directions for you. But if you search around the site, you can find the 0.9f cab file to install, and the files to update your version of VC 1.6 to v1.6.17913, which will allow all Voice Command features on the Hermes (including Bluetooth).

To have your phone read your e-mail to you requires a different program than Voice Command (perhaps Cyberon's Voice Commander? - I'm not sure).
Good luck!

Hope this works!
Thanks and I thank Google XDA search as well
EDIT:
YAY Reading notifications now! THANKS!
And I guess when they told me it reads emails they meant it reads "From" and the "Subject" that are shown in the notifications.
EDIT2:
So now why did I have to download this version here and not from Microsoft? Still kind of feel like I wasted money seeing as how I ended up using a version found on these forums.
Here is a MS Voice Command 1.6 and BT Patch ONLY ExtROM that I use when building my ROMs. It will install everything the exact way necessary to get announcements and BT to work without any further changes. Just install, Run, Pair your BT, Soft Reset, and have fun.

Another thing to check once you install that update, go to settings, then voice command settings and double check your setting for notifications. The default setting "Announce notifications using bluetooth hands free only".. i change my to Announce notifications using Bluetooth hands free if available.
hope this helps.. but for me, this is holding me up a long time, unless I finally realized. Working fine for me since, with ALL ROMS i have tried.
I'm using ...
... Voice Commander on my newly upgraded UK T-Mobile Vario II with Fun_Key latest WM6 ROM.
Works great, its naturally a little faster at recognising my voice than it was on WM5.
Havent tried notifications though, i used to use it for incoming SMSs but got fed up of it announcing my T-Mobile remaining Flext credits (sms's sent automatically) every few days or so!

I downloaded and installed this. Turned the phone off and then back on.
But now my 8525 locks up whenever I slide out the keyboad. Help?!?
I'm running the WM6 provided by Cingular/HTC
Do I need to actually install Voice Commander 1.6 THEN install the above?
Either way, I'm guessing my 8525 now needs a hard reset
Hello,
i apologize should i have missed an existing thread on my problem. I found nothing.
Problem is: Using an Artemis (T-Mobile MDA III) Windows mobile 5.0 and Voice Command 1.6. VC deos not work properly on Voice controlled dialing neither from "Contacts" nor by voicing numbers to dial, one by one.
It worked well on my previous MDAII (Magician), WM3 and VC 1.5. I wouldn't like to miss it.
Calling up programs and info's (time, date, memory usage, rind-mode) etc. works well.
Thx in advance for any help.

I also use voice Dialing on my MDACIII with WM5, but i just use the standard software, works ok with that. it might be a conflict between Voice Command 1.6 and the standard software.
Once you have activated a button for Voice Command it should work fine, mine does.
Try a reinstall, and make sure you install to the device memory, not a memory card.
There are some updates in the other PocketPC threads, where folks have been able to get this to work.
Any luck with incoming call announcements over BlueTooth with WM6 ROM's and add-on install of Microsoft Voice Command 1.6?

Just to clarify, this rom does not come with built-in Voice Command 1.6 as does the T-Mobile WM6 upgrade rom.
So, I installed the 1.33.422 ROM, then installed Voice Command 1.6 and incoming call announcements do not work ... not as if it were reasonable to expect them to work, given the problem is with Voice Command and not with the WM6 ROM.

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?

yes and yes.

has anyone ever tried 1.6.21728 or 1.6.21812?
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:
forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=41645&page=9[/url]
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.
Hello,
