Hi!
So I updated to Mango RTM 7720 today and then I tried to follow those instructions here: addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-enable-talking-caller-id-on-windows-phone-7-mango
On my HD7 I have the option for talking caller ID but I have no toggle button. So I can't turn it on.
Does anyone have the same issue?
I tried the search here but it didn't came up with similar threads.
Thanks for any answers!
donots,
Check under Speech in the settings menu. From there you can enable speech recognition over the network, speech when the phone is locked and play audio confirmations.
Hope that helps

Go to Settings and under System, scroll to 'ease of access'. In there, enable 'Speech for phone accessibility'.
Done. The next time you get a call, the phone would say the Name or Number.
Enjoy..
Unfortunately, this option is disabled with german language settings. (7713 and 7720)
exactly, if I switch the phone language to english it works.
hi.I have the same problem as "donots" .I selected English and I still do not appear in the menu on / off button for Talking caller ID for phone calls (Speech for phone accessibility).The problem is that we have Romania SIM and i'm in Germany (roaming) to influence it with something.
Can you help me.
Excuse my English
I am using the english Orange UK 7720 build (the official ROM from the carrier).
My "Speech for phone accessibility" option is there under "Ease of access" but there is no slider button to turn it on/off.
Any ideas on how to get this option to enable?
I have tried English (UK) and English (US) region settings, neither work.
@ sysigy
same problem as sysigy
i had the same problem. i could find the speech for phone accessibility in ease of access but i could not switch it on or off.
i changed my region+language settings to English (US) for both language and region and saved and restarted and it worked perfectly. i could switch the feature on or off with the slider.
then i changed region back to south africa and the speech feature still works. i can still switch it on or off. so i think its only the language that MUST be English (US). English (UK) does not work.

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

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.
I believe I have found a bug in Android.
I've been going crazy trying to figure out why my girlfriend in Mexico sends me texts and they get corrupted or are blank.
I was able to duplicate the problem today while in Mexico with both phones
Here's what happens.
Phone #1 is a Desire Z TelCel
Phone #2 is a G2 MySimpleMobile
When #1 is using language Espanol (Espana) SMS messages are corrupted on the phone #2 who is receiving. We were unable to send and receive to other phones as well.
I tried this several times. I get either blanks or $#%^#$%^#$^//..,":: just askii symbol garbage.
So I swithced Phone #1 back to English (United Kingdom) and sent a text. And perfect! All texts are sent and received perfect on both ends.
Phone #1 is able to receive messages in ingles/English no problem no matter what language is selected
Phone #2 can not receieves corrupted message only when Phone #1 language is NOT English.
This is independent of Phone #1 being the Desire Z or other Android. We had the same issue with a MyTouch 3G Slide that was unlocked. I kept getting corrupted messages.. and that is why I sold it and bought the Desire Z that has the NAB umts 850 so she can get 3G. (which we do no problem)
So.. either this is a NETWORK Error? OR a bug in Android?
This does not happen with the exact same SIM in other phones, like an old Samsung or Blackberry Curve or Tour. We've used those with no problems.
So this is specific to ANDROID phones and the Language or Idioma when it is NOT ingles/English
I can duplicate/replicate the problem and no doubt, either one of the phones must need a new language installed?
My first reaction would be that it is from using and international build or something.. but it happened with a Local San Diego T-Mobile MyTouch Slide 3G also.
Still not 100% sure if it is not MySimpleMobile or not. Or even TelCel. I need to text back and forth to a Verizon or Sprint phone to be sure. And have her switch between languages. But not doubt this is a bug.
For a quick fix. Is there a way for her to switch languages idomas fast? So if she wants to write me a quick text she doesn't have to goto Menu.. idomas.. blah blah blah.
Wondering if 2.3 Gingerbread will fix this issue???
Any other suggestions fixes?
Gracias!!!
Coool
Thanks for this information even if i dont have it its good to know just in case!
Finally found a thread on Google ... been using the wrong words I guess in my search.
No solution at this point. And Gingerbread doesn't fix.
http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/Google+Mobile/thread?tid=6ca4635b0a994d55&hl=en
Not sure why you can not install a few languages. So the phone can recognize Several Keyboards or ASCII char sets.
I should think if I had Spanish and English installed on my device.. and so does her phone.
Shame on Google for not having a fix for this.

I have the same problem using the official Orange UK carrier with build 7720 on an HTC 7 Mozart. The option "Speech for phone accessibility" is there but there is not slider to turn it on or off.
Does anyone know how to enable it?
Anyone worked this out yet? I have the same porblem on my E900?
nobody even knows any solution to this problem.
Have you tried setting language to English (US)?
Hi,
I am using my HTC one M8 for Windows in Europe and realized that neither voice search (holding Search-Button) nor voice output (e.g. incoming texts while on BT-headset) works. I have checked the settings versus my Lumia 920 and found no faulty settings.
Anybody having the same issues?
Has the non-availability of Cortana in the EU something to do with that?
Cheers,
T.

And I seem to have found the solution. Although displayed the phone had not downloaded the relevant speech-files correctly. Checking "speech recognition language" in "speech" settings revealed the correct language was selected but not correctly downloaded. That should solve the issue.

I use a Moto G (3. Gen.) in Germany, running in English. From the lock screen, I slide up to reveal the phone PIN input, and choose "Emergency" on the bottom. Now, I input "110", which is the German police emergency number, and it says, "110 is not an emergency number" (have a screenshot, but don't know how to post it here).
On the other hand, it lets me call 112 the same way, which is the German firefighters emergency number.
This is obviously a problem, and I'd like Motorola to react to this as soon as possible. What should I do?
Edit: This might also affect other phones, and needs to be addressed somehow!
