For some reason, even though I have gone through all the settings, I cannot get the thing to announce who is calling. I do have that option selected. The only thing it could be is the choice of speaker?
I have had this running on both my previous devices with no problems and like the voice telling me who is actually calling.
Any thoughts would be great.
From the Microsoft VC page :
Incoming caller ID announcements will be spoken via the phone speaker on devices with a Windows Mobile build prior to 15097.3.0.0. To check which build is on your device, go to settings >about or start >controlpanel >about. If your build number is lower that 15097.3.0.0, this will be true for your device

This is all very confusing.

You said you've gone through all the settings, but for completeness, this solved it for me.
Settings > Voice Command > Phone > Options
Check off "Announce Incoming Calls"
This is turned off by default.
Still no joy.
I will try all the different speaker settings now, just to make sure a third time.
Thanks

No, the annoncement is not available for your device .
I not sure this will help, first disable voice command and replace the file voiceCommand_PPC.dll to windows floder. You need to show all hidden folder first. Then copy another 3 files to voice command folder under Program Files floder. Do a soft reset then enable voice command and chose announce incoming call. This should fix the problems......cheer
Sorry, forget to name another 3 files Voicecmd.exe, VoiceCmdRes_PPC.dll and VoiceCommandWMP.dll. It's work for me.enjoy
Cheers, I will give this a try tonight.

Okay, for the past month my phone has been reading me incoming calls and e-mail tittles randomly(like one every 3 days). I don't remember turning on any text to speech option. nor can I find it. so how can i turn this on so it stays on?
lay off the mushrooms man. Unless you installed some software that reads text out loud your phone should not be talking to you.

This is correct, under Voice Command go to Notifications and click on the 3rd tab down, which will allow all notifications to be made aloud through the phone itself, not just through a headset.

Did you change rom ?
Nope, im on the stock rom. been waiting for 6.5 to come out before i change my rom.
I tried the In Call Recording Cab and I don't think it's working. I have a verizon TP2. Anyone else get it to work on your CDMA TP2? Also, where do you find the option if it is working?
I had no issues. Just install, do a reboot (or not, I'm not sure if it's required or not).
During a call, press the menu soft key and tick record call. To find the call, fire up notes and you should see it. Set Notes to record audio to the storage card and you shouldn't have any storeage issues.

Confirmed working on my VZW TP2....
As stated before, open the "Notes" program and hit "options" and select the storage card as the place to store the notes.
Next make a call, hit "options" look for the "record call" option and ur good to go. When you end the call it automatically ends the recording so you do not have to go to "options" again and do that part.
After you end the call, run the "Notes" program and you will see the media files with the date and time as the name. Thats your call recording.

I like ACR works real well. automatic too!
Ive been using ACR as well. Its automatic so I dont have to think about it. It labels the calls really well with caller ID info and time stamps. I just have to remember to clean out my "call recording" folder once in awhile ). I think you can set it to only record when you trigger it as well.

You need to follow the two steps bellow:
1. To enable 2 way recording just change:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev]
"VocRecPath"=dword:00000002and you'll be able to record with any software.
2. If you want to use WM6 native recording (WAW only, on \my documents\notes, manual activation: during a call hit "record" on call menu) create:
Code:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\AudioRecording]
"Enabled"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Voice]
"EnableCallRecordMenuItem"=dword:00000001
"AllowInCallRecording"=dword:00000001

The nice thing about ACR is the way you can set it to record every call, BUT to have a screen pop up AFTER the call to offer you the option to keep it or not. Simply choose Yes or No after the call
you guys had to install cab's for this..?? my phone came with this option 100% stock...
I cant get the recording to be recorded to the storage card. I tried to set notes to save to the storage card in the options for "notes" but that didnt work. tried to change location settings in advanced config to put "my documents" on the storage card and that didnt work either.
How do i make the phone record to the storage card?
is there a reg change or something i need to do to make this possible.
I have some problems with the Ms Voice Command:
I had installed two of the CABs of this program, which I found here in one of the threads:
"Microsoft.Voice.Command.v1.6.21725.cab"
"MSVC-1.0 Control.cab" (for setting the "TFlo3d Phone key" to the "Voice Command Button").
I also set to "Set rate to 1 Slower" and "Increase the volume to 5"
The problems:
1. The play-back/response of the program is very fast and usually can't be understood.
2. When I'm Trying to call by saying a phone number (e.g. "Dial 04-818-2905"), the program don't understand my command numbers and repeats a wrong number.
3. I lost hope and I'm trying to remove the program, but I'm getting an announcement that the program can't be fully uninstalled. Practically the program isn't removed. I made a few reboots, I made reinstall, I set the "TFlo3d Phone key" back to "phone" (it's still functioning as a "Voice Command Button").
Can someone help me with one or some of those problems? especially with removing the program, before I'll need no make a full-reset.
I can help you with number 2: if you're using the US version, you can only use the US phone number format to dial. If you live somewhere else, use the UK version.
if you just want to call people, try using Cyberon Voice Speed dial with BT FIX.
If you need more, I can't be of much help. De-installing goes via settings-applications-remove

anyone have trouble setting google voice as their primary voicemail?
when i download the app, and go through the initial setup, i sign in with my account, hit "next", select "do not use google voice to make any calls", hit "next", hit "configure", then i select the "google voice" option instead of "my carrier" - and i get an error message that says "call settings error: failed to retrieve and save current forwarding number settings. do you want to switch to the new provider anyway?"
i select "yes", and then i get another error message that says "call settings error: forwarding number change unsuccessful. please contact your carrier if your problem persists".
anyone else run into this issue? even if you haven't run into this issue, any suggestions for how to get around it? i only want to contact my carrier as a last resort, because i doubt at&t is going to know how/care to solve this issue.
any advice would be appreciated - i only want to use google voice for my voicemail! thanks in advance.
Was having the same problem and found this - worked fine - but needed to reboot:
"Go into the settings at voice.google.com and deactivate your phone and reactivate it. The deactivate step will give a code to enter in your phone...skip that. Next, click on activate this phone and it will give you a string to dial...something like *004*yourgooglevoicenumber#"
Just go online and make sure your phone is active, then enter that string *004*1...#
at what point during this process are you rebooting? i still can't get it to work...

The first time I did it it didn't work - after reinstalling going through setup, letting it fail, and then doing the steps, and then rebooting it worked perfectly. So yeah, thanks!
I got it to work but it changed my voice mail greeting. Can I not have the generic AT&T greeting while using google visual voice mail.
could somebody please post the EXACT steps, step by step, of how they got it to work? i.e., when you reboot, when you uninstall/reinstall google voice, whether you set it up through google voice settings or call settings in the general phone settings...
i've tried every permutation of every post on here, and i still can't get it to work for some reason.
edit: turns out that, even though it says there was a failure in the forwarding, it still works... when i call my phone, my google voice mailbox picks up - and when i leave a message, google voice gets that message and gives me an alert... strange. people actually got it to setup where they didn't receive an error? it works, but my voicemail settings in the phone's call settings doesn't say "google voice" - it still says "my carrier".
I don't think he's being clear in his post, I don't think there is way to get it to work through the GV app. Dialing the *004*+1#* changes your voice mail provider on the phone, but doesn't change the dialogue box in the phone options, it will still say "My carrier".
I used the *004* method and my phone forwards to GV and notifies of voicemail just as you described. That's how it should work =)
I pretty much followed his post. I visited the GV settings online, deactivated the phone using the codes they gave me, uninstalled the application. Reinstalled the app, then activated the phone on the site using the codes they gave me and rebooted my phone. To test it I called myself and it went straight to google voice, then upon launching the application it went to the inbox instead of the set up. This worked for me, and I don't think I'm missing any steps.

this is what i needed to hear all along.
i was waiting for the settings to take effect in the call settings (i.e., switch from "my carrier" to "google voice"), but this isn't going to happen on our phone.
however, even though this doesn't happen, google voice still becomes your primary voicemail.
thanks for making that clear!
Thanks for the tips after spending 25 minutes on the phone with the att rep who didn't help one bit this worked perfectly.

Thanks for this!! Worked GREAT!
Sorry for not being clear - it still says my carrier - but works with GV... same thing on my phone.
I had the same issue as well.
Mine is now set to "Google Voice" under Voicemail Service. This is even after a reboot but GV voicemails were fine even when set as "My carrier". So not sure why it changed.
I just made sure under Settings -> Call -> Call forwarding that my GV number was set for
"Forward when busy"
"Forward when unanswered"
"Forward when unreachable"
When I select GV as Voicemail Service, it gave me the same error but it stayed. Strange. But GV has always worked for me no matter what it displayed. Long as it was set properly under the "Forward ..." options.
Thanks this was bugging me!

In case people didn't realize the Google Voice setup just sets up forwarding nothing else. Also forwarding is at the line level and not device. So if you take the SIM out and put it in an iphone or anything else it will continue going to Google Voice until you change it manually. Just FYI,

[HOW TO] Get Google Voicemail working on CM10 ROMS (An Alternative to the AT&T VVM)
Hi guys. So I cant get the AT&T's visual voicemail to work on the CM10 ROMs due to the way audio files are saved and played (still not sure).
I tried to set up Google Voice and when setting up the application after install, I STILL could not get the voicemail forwarding to the Google Voicemail to work.
HOWEVER! I finally got it to work... Thank you useless AT&T customer service.
The problem was that google voice app tries to set your voicemail on the phone app-->press phone settings--> voicemail.
HERE's THE FIX!
Go to phone app --> "press menu" --> "press phone settings" --> press call forwarding
NOW! In call fowarding settings change the numbers of the following to your google number (make sure to insert +1):
a) forward when busy
b) forward when unanswered
b) forward when unreachable
Thank is appreciated!
Last time I was on CM10 and AOKP, it was as simple as setting it up as changing the Voicemail settings.

This finally worked, however not the first time, I had to get a new google voice number and I DID NOT "activate google voicemail on this phone" in the settings. When I pressed the "activate google voicemail" I was getting error messages when I would try and test it.
This is working atleast for me after days of trying.

Got Visual Voicemail to work
Hi all, I actually had the SKY ICS rom installed and I backed up the app and data using rom toolbox and it worked.
Interesting, I'll check those settings.
However, I've never gotten the Google Voice app to set up voicemail correctly even on stock ROMs. The solution has been to leave it set to "carrier" and then follow the instructions on the Google Voice WEBSITE.
The instructions are carrier specific, so for AT&T:
Open the phone app.
Enter the following exactly as written, as if you are dialing someone:
*004*15559991234# (with "5559991234" being your GV number.)
Press "Send" or "Call" on your phone to dial that number. When you see the confirmation message on your phone, you are done!
This changes the forwarding settings on the Carrier's end.
AT&T VVM never worked on CM9 for me but on CM10, I've had zero problems even when everything else is FUBAR.

I tried all the tricks google said and att said to do. this is the only way for me to have google voice as my voice mail.
I've noticed when setting up Google voice with its built-in setup, you have to switch the tick in voicemail settings to Google voice, then hit the back button til you get back to Google voice app, DO NOT press the configure button in voicemail settings, you must back up til the screen swaps back to Google voice, then it will automatically start the configuration process, and setup is complete. Let me know if this works for you (it took me a while to find it out, found it on some random thread somewhere)

I tried this, but I kept getting error. The in app setup of the voice mail will not work unless you're really lucky. What my method does is that it changes the fowarding number in the SIM I believe. That's why now, if you flash new ROM on top of the previous, the fowarding number will still remain. I found my method to work every single time.
Thanks for your suggestion and input man!

And given.
FWIW:
OK this an ATT thread, but this fix works on T-Mobile as well. In fact, it should work on any CM10 phone, because all it's doing is setting the same things that Voice would be doing were it not wonky.
I'm pretty sure your carrier can manually set these numbers on their end, too. But as I just found out tonight, you'll have a hell of a time getting Tier 1 tech support to even understand the most basic premise involved. However, I have, in the last year, had TMO successfully set this number as the transfer/voicemail default.
Also, and correct me if I'm wrong, I thought there was a USSD code you could enter from the keypad that would set this transfer number, too.
