What is the voice command - HD2 General

...To have the bloody thing read an SMS message?
I have looked, but cannot find this though I know it can do it.

I'm still trying to figure out the command to make it wash my dishes.

Based on what I've seen, MS voice command doesn't work right on the HD2. It wont read your SMS messages - and even worse it won't announce your incoming caller's info either.
Someone out here on the forum talked to HTC about the problem & they know about it (not that they've fixed it)

Thank you for that.
I spoke to a rep at Tmo and one at HTC and both said they were unsure that the device cold do this.
I told them I was POSITIVE that it is supposd to be able to do it, but no one had an answer.
Appreciate the info.

I've been using MS Voice Command to read the subject of urgently marked e-mail messages for a number of years on various WM devices. On my TMOUSA HD2 it almost works--only about the first half of the subject is read aloud. The second half gets read aloud when the next e-mail message is received.
It seems like is must be a filled/over-filled buffer problem/bug.

Sms Usage / Counter

I could not find a topic of this? if u do please place below.
My question is
Is there any software for the wizard, who counts the total sms that were sended.
I found one called calltime app, but it's in german.
i'd rather prefer english
someone?

Asked something very similar and didnt really get that far. Thought it would have been a very popular type of program to have. I even thought you would maybe be able to have a counter on your today screen of how many minitues and texts you had left for that month.
Would have been cool.
That's probably dktoday. It counts your sms's send, used minutes today & this (user adjustable month). Shows current act.operator & turns off screen when pressed, switches on BT on incoming call. Switches BT when BT icon is pressed. & it shows missed calls today.
Sounds good, so if anyone does come accross an english version Id like to know about it

Thats a bit harsh from the posts above it implied only a foriegn one was available.
& that's the prob. with writing in a foreign language. I couldn't find a emoticon expressing my tone. So no hard feelings pls.
Only the first post mentioned german, the rest English I guess. Hope you like dktoday I certainly do.
lol...no probs. Just put it on looks like just what i need and seems to work a treat!
EDIT : SMS counter doesnt seem to be working though.
I don't send a lot of sms's, but belief mine are counted on receiving the delivery notification & that's no good indeed. Maybe you can contact the developer about it.
I heard that the newest version of phonealarm is counting SMS. But there is one problem - it just counts the number of messages, not the number of SMS sent - in case you send messages longer 160 chars (which will be sent in multiple SMS) the counter won't be reliable... :?

Voice Mail App?

Hi All,
I don't know if this as been posted before, i couldn't find it if it was.
I'm looking for an app which will take voice mail and record it right on the phone when i miss a call. I've seen it for S60 phones but never for WinMo. I've been looking for almost a year off and on but have never found anything near what i want. If anyone has seen it send me the name please, it would be a great time saver.

Grandcentral?
I don't know if you'd be interested in all that it entails but check out http://www.grandcentral.com as a possible solution. It's not exactly what you're after but may work out for you....
Hey, thanks for the link. I think i may have found what i'm looking for! I have not tested or installed this yet, i'm at work. I'll be installing it over dinner and putting it to the test. Heres the link:

I've been using Callwave: http://www.callwave.com/landing/mobileVisualVoicemail.aspx?r=NONE
Again, it's not exactly what you said, but you can set it to send you and email with attachment which you can save to your phone.
I was using SimulScribe/SimulSays, but their customer service is atrocious. So bad that at one point the CEO emailed me to apologize for how I was treated after reading the email exchanges only to ignore my response email asking if my lost voicemails could be recovered. I guess the answer was no.
The other nice thing about Callwave is that it will transcribe your voicemail (good for reading messages while you're in meetings). I don't know if that's free longterm however.
i'll be interested to hear how the isecretary worked out...
HI,
I haven't had a chance to really test it out yet, I've been super busy. I did test it when i first downloaded it and i think it may have deleted all of my contact #'s. Not sure it was the program or something i did as messing with my phone seems to be my new habit. At present i can record a message from an incoming call but i'm having trouble getting the greeting to play. Adjusting the settings may be all thats needed but i don't have the time to do it yet. If i get it under control i'll post what i did to get it to work.

looking for SMS that annouce

been using various sms program. none have been able to annouce the incomming sms messages. I really do like to hear my text message being read. Is there any program that has sms feature but annouce it too?
i've used palm's sms and vito. the various sms software that i found else where that is not well discussed as the two mentioned.
if i can hack the registry to also store my texts in its default location while having palm's sms receive the text...i really like palm's sms, but it takes out my text inbox...i think voice command only reads text inbox.
other suggest downloading wm6.1, doesn't work with sms.
tested with samsung i760.
try the new ZoomSMS.. has a registry option to notify..
Try MS Voice Commad 1.6, It will read your message to you as you recieve it. Just hope you dont get one from thw wife/girlfriend during a business meeting.

Yes, my wife uses the MS Voice command to read her SMS's out loud. As a joke, I send her crap when I know she is with other people. She doesn't see the humor in it like I do.
Hehe i did this when a friend of mine had software for outlout reading of s60 device content installed on his n70 while in pub it had czech support, but i never heard funnier voice read out crap and czech curse words
Lol, we live in units, and the outside plumbing for the sewerage system broke.
I was in a meeting when I got, at max volume"
"Giant crap just outside window, think I'm gonna puke, leaving"
Lol, I have never been so proud of my GF

Understadning vc1.6 and sms

Yes I can. It is because you have not searched the site for the already started topic to where a solution maybe found. So please search "voice command text message" or "voice command sms" or any other combination you may think of and see the hits it brings up.
i don't think installing sms can
george, i read thru a lot of palms' threaded sms with no luck. before i installed the palms', my incoming text annouces. after palms', i don't hear it anymore. I read thru a lot of palms' topic on this site and ppcgeeks. none has an answer for it.

I don't disagree with you that there may or may not be an answer. I am asking you kindly to post in the threads all ready started on this subject to keep continuity. That way when someone else comes along we can direct them and it be affective.
thanks.
chillax, dude.
The problems arent related.
The OP is asking a good question. Basically, VC is written by Microsoft and so is designed to operate with system commands as MS designed them.
When you are using the Palm messaging app, you're actually circumventing the MS messaging app that would normally handle the new SMS, and using the plam app instead as a replacement.
VC does not recognize the palm app and therefore doesn't know to announce anything.
The same is true of Media Players and other system alternatives- if you use mortplayer or htc music manager for your tunes, VC will still only know how to control Windows Media Player.
The threads George is referring to are talking about a different problem.
Hope that clears things up.

HTC HD2 replies going to wrong contact

Hi, Cant see an answer or thread about this so here goes. If this has been posted elsewhere please excuse me ..
My HTC HD2 has a random problem when replying to SMS messages. If I use REPLY ,or tag onto the last part of a 'conversation' with a contact, the message has occasionally been going to another contact. It still shows in the 'conversation' with the intended recipient but has actually gone to another....
Hope I've explained that ok .. Any help gratefully received.
Cheers, Will
Lately, I've been getting a few "wrong number" SMSs on my TMOUS HD2, as well as a friend (on AT&T) constantly missing SMSs that have been sent to her from various friends. So far, I believe all my SMSs have went through properly, as far as I can tell.
I'm starting to wonder if it's all coincidence, or something with the carriers.
