Nokia Lumia :: Voice Control Fails To Work At Highway Speeds
Dec 14, 2012
Having difficulty with voice control when driving at highway speeds? I drive a 2007 VW GLI and once I'm over 50 MPH I can't get the voice control to function -- even is I scream, yell or talk loudly at it.
starting to get really annoyed with this iphone 4 ! its not even three months old and the menu button gave up
voice control goes off by itself & every time i call an operator at the apple store they're just completly rude. thought the iphone 4 was mean't to be so awesome !
Did I mess with a setting or something? When I press the volume buttons nothing happens. When I use them during a call I can raise voice volume but I cant raise any volume atbany other time?
I am using a Blue Ant Q1 Blue Tooth headset and updated to the latest firmware on it. Now when I tell the Blue Ant Voice command the command 'Phone prompt' it connects with my Blackberry Torch 9800 Nuance Voice command option with no problems.Now when I tell the Nuance voice command the numbers of a phone number I want to call, it will repeat it back to me to verifying the number. Now the numbers are clear when the voice command repeats the number I want to call.I swear it really sounds like the very first computer voice ever created, it's all garbled and muddy like. No real clarity in what it is repeating back to me.It is very hard to make out what the voice command is repeating back to me to verify the word I used to describe the number I want it to call.Now, I shut off my Blue Ant Blue Tooth headset and tried the Nuance voice commands with my phone only and I get the same poor quality computer animated voice issues coming out of my Blackberry Torch 9800.Is this normal, I sure hope not, after purchasing what I consider a top quality cell phone. I would expect more clarity with this software from Blackberry and Nuances.This is the one feature that I really need for a cell phone to perform well for me, since I am on the road a lot for my business and needs handsfree dialing.
I update to iOS 6 beta 1, some Apps doesn't work on iOS 6, so I restored back, eveything's fine after, but only siri's voice changed. Does anyone know how to fix Siri's robotic voice?
just got my 822 yesterday and am in the process of setting everything up. I activated the "kids corner" app and went to download games. At the start you have to put in your birthdate. I thought it meant my son's but now when I go to buy apps it says the parent permission won't allow it. I went to the site and it says I have to create an account for my son using his emaiI. He is 6 and I do not want to create an email account for him. How do I change the birthdate info so it reflects me not him?
I start noticing this issue about a week ago. When my Lumia battery get to about 50% or less, even though my physical location is San Francisco, my GPS location becomes either somewhere in Ohio near Akron or in Georgia near Alpharetta.Thus all applications that require location become useless!
I purchased a Nokia 610 today and am trying to download the UK maps in Nokia Drive. Have setup WiFi. Select the UK (All) map to download.At random points throughout the download process the app crashes and returns me back to the start screen.
I have removed and reinstalled the app with no change.
Is there such a thing available for current Asha and Lumia models? Just like the Apple - In-Ear Headphones with Remote and Mic for iPod and iPhone. I know, I know, the Nokias are wired differently so the Iphone Headset will not work(?). But I still need the fast forward and rewind buttons to conveniently listen to audio books.
Why is Windows Phone having version 7.5 if it still can't set different volumes for music and notifications... When I listen to radio the volume setting of 1 is often loud enough, if I then put it in my pocket I mis all calls as it is not loud enough. If I set it back at level 25 I get woken up at night for incoming mails... BTW, why can't I even define (off-)peak synchronisation intervals for my mails?
Is it possible that on the next firmware update, the volume control for the music and ring/message tone is separated?
Like when you're listening to music, when you press the volume rocker, it will set the volume just for the music and not the current volume setting of the message/ring tone?
Having been used to Voice Control on the 3GS, I used it regularly for calling people, playing music, etc and always found it very accurate.However, the VC on my new iPhone 4 is really dreadful.I realise that it may be a simple fault with my actual phone and a simple replacement may be the only answer.I have a Genius appointment booked for early next week, but the thought occurred to me - has anyone else experienced this and if so, any ideas/suggestions?It cannot recognise anything I say and gets all commands truly wrong. I have tried resetting it but it makes no difference.
On my old galaxy s3 I could control the music player by voice to skip songs, pause etc. The s6 version of TouchWiz does not have this. Any app where I can get these functions back?
Essentially what i'm trying to achieve is to be able to use Google voice commands from my Bose in-ear headphones while the phone is locked/sleeping.  When on my way to and from work, I always have my headphones in and am listening to music. Answering calls is a breeze, simply tap the button on my inline mic and the call is answered. To make a call however, I need to take the phone out of my pocket, unlock the phone (using password) and then either use Google voice to place the call (but since i've made it this far and the phone is in my hand i usually just find the contact and make the call using my fingers). It would be ideal if I could simply activate the Google voice functions without taking the phone out of my pocket, unlocking, and then use the voice functionality to do a search or make a call.  Currently when I hold down the button on my headphones and the phone is locked I get the message "to do a Google voice search, please unlock your phone".  Ideally the functionality would be acessible without having to unlock the phone. Is there a setting I can change to add this? Are there specific headphones that alow this? Can I verbally give my password to unlock the phone and then use the voice functionality?  The whole goal here is to not have to take the phone out of my pocket and manually enter my password.
My iPhone 4 has been glitchy. Sometimes voice control goes on every few seconds. Sometimes touch screen doesn't respond and a box appears around every character I touch. It stops when I reboot but it has begun to happen a lot
is there a way of disabling the voice control feature on the iPhone 4? I'm using the "hold the home button" action for something else by way of Activator and it's annoying that if I hold it a little too long it'll launch voice control.
In the galaxy S4 I had the option to use voice control in Samsung music player, like "next", "stop", "pause" etc. ( it was located in the voice control settings under "Input and Control")In the galaxy S5 I have now I can't find this option for some reason , went through all the settings, it's gone.
My verizon iphone4 just starting acting up were the voice control command pops up for no reason. I've turn off and on my phone a few times and it has not solved the problem.
