When I first got my Epic, on an incoming phone call, there would be a voice announcement of either someone on my contact list or a phone number if not on my contact list. I don't remember if this came this way or if somehow a friend of mine set it up this way. Anyway, after I installed the leaked dk28 or sometime after, the phone now does not do voice announcement-is just rings. How can I get back the voice announcement?
Thanks in advance
Go into settings, accessibility and then check talk-back

Thanks for the reply. That program was not installed so I installed it. But now the Epic talks about everything. hahhahah. I just want the Epic to announce phone calls. Thank you again.
I know that its in the stock Tom by default. You could try Vlingo too. I know that you can configure it to read just calls, text, emails, or all of them. It doesn't announce EVERYTHING like talkback does

I tried this too but could not find the above and I really spent a lot of time looking at all the settings but to no avail. Maybe they left it out in Froyo 2.2 that I installed??
There is an app called talking caller id

Perfect! That's the application I needed. I must have somehow put it on before and erased it??. Thank you very much!
I can test it in the settings menu but how do I enable it do I have to down load anything

It depends on whether apps support this feature or not. Handcent for example uses these text to speech libraries to read out your texts.

yeah u need an app that supports tts like talback ect, you can also use the tts voices in apps like copilot, using the tts voice will make the app read out road names as well as directions
I'm wanting text to does h for text messages it has picro tts and a demo works fine in settings voice input etc. So how do I set it up for text messages

To use voice to text for messages first make sure your using Touch Input method keyboard. At the bottom left you'll see a button with a microphone icon on it, hold it down and talk when it prompts for voice.

thanks for the help and that works fine ,but what im also after is it converting incoming texts to speech not sure how it done
You could try SMS popup from the market. I think it can read out new incoming texts automatically.

Handcent can also read out sms texts. Just long press on the text and choose 'speak text' .... though im yet to think of a reason why i would want to do this.

What would be the easiest way to disable incoming phone calls on the tab? I'd like to be able to make calls but not receive them.
Naturally if disabling only the inbound is impossible, I could live with disabling outbound as well.
Data should work normally as well as contact syncing with Exchange (not sure if it's related in any way to the phone...).
Current firmwares:
PDA: JME (roto v3)
PHONE: JHA
CSC: JME
You could set your call forwarding for all calls to go to a disconnected or invalid number.

Hmm.. yes why not... theoretically.
The thing is, thought, that I have multi/dual sim, so if the call from my tab is forwarded to a number not in use, the caller will get the "number not in use" message. This would make my primary phone useless and would mean I can't receive calls on my phone either.
Still think disabling break in traffic on tab is the only way to go...
Bump bump.

It can't go to voicemail because I want to answer the call on my Desire Z. I simply don't want a call to ring on my gal tab at all.

You are telling us that both the tab and the desire are seen by the network as the desire?

I don't know how the network sees my dual SIM cards but I can't call forward to my own number from the tab. It just gives me an error message.

I would probably try flashing the radio from the TMo US Tab, as this is known not to support voice calls. This would of course disable both incoming and outgoing, and you'd do so at your own risk as it could end up bricking your Tab (though I'm doubtful of this, since TMo US Tabs will work with the Euro Tab radio).

Is anyone else on AT&T's prepaid (GoPhone) getting a message "Conditional Call Forwarding Active" every single time a call is dialed out? I don't get the message for incoming calls. I researched and found some people experienced the same issue on other devices as they had not set their voicemail. I have my voicemail set up and all settings (as far as I can tell) are for AT&T's network. I got the message on stock GB and now I get the same message ICS LPY ROM. What's causing that message and how can I fix it?
Am I the only one experiencing this?

Nope your not the only one have the same message... although I think its carrier dependent as I get it on all my phones
Don't worry about the message, it's just highlighting that you have set your voicemail with certain conditions i.e. when busy, unavailable etc
If you cancel your voicemail settings, you should find that the message disappears.
It's normal...

I am not worried but it just seems it can be fixed, and I don't know how. I tried disabling the conditions but it doesn't allow me to make any changes. If anyone has any other ideas about fixing this issue, please share them.

Goto settings, Call, Call forwarding, Voice call and check to see if all options are showing disabled, if not, you will get that message.

As I said, I can't disable them - it doesn't allow me to and is restricted by the carrier.
Also, I read somewhere that disabling those settings will not forward your calls to your voicemail.

Did not know that carriers have restricted it on some networks, I'm in the UK on t mobile and can disable any of those options.
Disabling the settings will definitely stop the messaging as well as forwarding calls to your voicemail. The whole point of the message is to let you know that you have active diverts i.e. voicemail setup. Have not seen any option anywhere where you can disable the message.
thanks a lot, i have the same problem it now solved , i follow your advice setting-->call setting-->call forwarding-->the last option was enable i make it disable (Forward when unreach)
Hey guys, I'm trying to get some support on setting up voicemail on the Nexus 4 for T-Mobile. I've been doing a couple of hours of research and haven't run across anything substantial. If anyone can help me that would be awesome!
Also note: I also tried downloading T-Mobile's voicemail app and it wouldn't set up properly. The app would say it couldn't setup properly at the time.

Never tried T Mobile Voice mail. I just have everything forwarded over to my Google Voice which provides Voice mail. That's always an alternative if you can't get the T Mobile one working.

Change the voice mail to Google Voice. Install the app and go through the installation procedure and have voice mail go from "My Carrier" to "Google Voice"

Did you hold down 1 in the dial pad? It should take you directly to your voicemail or have you configure it. It worked that way for me when I was on contract and still works the same using prepaid.

Yup... I don't know why, but conditional call forwarding is not supported on any of the prepaid plans.

I sure did. It then says, "You've reached the voicemail system. If you have a mailbox on this system, press star...". I proceeded with star and entered my phone number and it says it's "invalid". Lost in terms of why it's asking that. I'm used to the general - setup your mailbox prompt. Some reason, it doesn't exist here.
T-Mobile visual voicemail app works for me. If you're on WiFi, turn it OFF during the initialization. Once you're all setup, you'll be good to go.

I didn't have any problems with my voicemail. I've had T-Mobile for a while and all I did was get a new sim card and had it activated and my voicemail was working with no problems at all with my Nexus. Also I found this from T-Mobile support...
"To access the voicemail main menu, follow these steps:
Note: Make sure you are not roaming when attempting to set up voicemail for the first time.
1.Dial 123 or hold down the 1 key
2.Press Send.
3.Enter the last 4 digits of your mobile number as your voicemail password.
4.Follow the tutorial to set up your voicemail password and greeting.
Note:
•If you decline to set up the voicemail password and/or greeting, the tutorial plays each time until you set up both the password and greeting. Therefore, it is optimal to activate both features during initial setup."
Also if that doesn't work try calling your cell number from your land line and hit * when you get your voicemail if it lets you.
Are calls to T-Mobile voicemail count toward 100 minutes($30 plan) limit?

I appreciate your help! I definitely thought the same. After contacting T-MO, they said that the feature has been turned off. I have no clue how this has happened when the only change has been me ordering a micro-sim and activating it.. Weird! But all is well..
Again, I truly appreciate your guy's help! You are awesome..
