I have searched and not seen an answer. On my older phones the pre-installed voice that gave notifications was louder and more clear when using voice dialing over BT. I can barely hear the voice when it is okay to make a call or confirming the call. Is there a way to increase the volume on the voice. Have tried everything and even installed a few other BT notification apps with no luck.

I really enjoy using Microsoft Voice Command especially for announcing the name of the incoming call. The problem i am having is that the volume is very low and i cannot hear it sometimes even with the system and phone volume set to the highest. I noticed that the incoming voice is actually lower then when it repeats things back to me like looking up contacts. anyone know how to fix this?

I have VC 1.6 installed on my 8525 which works great, but I have one issue that I can't seem to figure out. When I am on the phone and another incoming call comes in VC announces the new caller which can make it hard to hear the caller you are talking to. Is there a way to lower the announce volume or even mute it.
Same here - anybody know how to fix this ?
There's no independant volume control for the VC voice, so you'll just have to turn off announcements using the control panel app if it's bothering you.
Not true, there is a registry hack that will allow you to raise or lower the volume, and also slow the speech down.

Ive read that MS Voice Command is suppose to be able to announce through the speaker, however, I have not been able to get this to work. Ive tried both of the last two options, Through BT if available, if not speaker. And Through speaker
I sent a test text message to myself and all I got was the ringer noise through my speaker, no voice announcement.
I do not have my BT headset connected, but I have BT turned on.
Is there another setting im missing?
I think you need to enable these options in the settings, personal, voice command. When you click on messages, click on notifications and uncheck the box for announce high priority messages only. This should work.
That did it. I wasnt aware you could change options for each selection. Thanks.
This is my first time using Voice Command really. Pretty cool though I wish the lady talked a bit slower, louder, and didnt sound so damn androidish. I use to have an LG phone several years ago that had built in Voice Caller ID, which worked extremely well. It would announce loud and usually clearly. A bit robotic too but not as much as this one.
Hope MS makes further strides with this technology.
You can adjust the speed in Advanced Config.
I usually set TTS rate to 1
I'm sure I'm being very dim but I thought Froyo supported Bluetooth voice dialling. Just tried with my BlueAnt headset, press the button on the headset and I get the low beep that means it can't do anything. I can receive calls on the headset fine.
Should this work and what am I doing wrong?
TIA

I too had some issues with this, especially after installing skype. I finally got it to work by setting up the phone dialer as the default and pressing the bluetooth button twice insted aod the usual once.
It seems that some firmwares have this disabled. not sure why.
Hello,
When people call me I speak through BT and they sound loud an clear. However when I try to listen to a voicemail I have to be in a dead silent room to even remotely make out what they are saying when playing back through Bluetooth. I have the BT volume turned all the way up. I switch to speaker, they are loud and clear. I'm not sure if this is an android issue or an LG issue.
Also no problem with google driving directions through Bluetooth. THe only time BT is too quiet is when playing back voicemails. I have to switch to speakers every time.
How do you listen to voicemails? Through phone by dialing the voicemail number or through a voicemail app?
Good question. It turns out that the apps is what is quiet. When I dial *86 my voicemail is loud and clear. Any suggestions (other than not using the VM app)?
I ended up trying another VM app and it didn't have the volume issue. Thanks for pinpointing the source of the issue.
Glad it's fixed. Ive only ever tried the T-Mobile voicemail app and it works alright except for the fact that it doesn't turn the screen off when trying to listen to the voicemail and if I manually turn off the screen then it stops playing so the only way I can listen with activating stuff with my face is speaker mode or Bluetooth headset.
