lowering the ring volume still does not work for me. I have gotten several tricks to get the announcement to work but it always ends up being intermittent. I am on the road getting calls all day for work and nothing has worked consistently I thought i stumbled on a fix once before..If i manually ran the voicecmd.exe not the .lnk it would always announce the next call correctly, even if it was hours later. But...as soon as i would answer a call via BT headset it would no longer work. I am back to using IDTransfer for now but on the brightside I just upped a working OEM for iton the ftp.
