???How to??? TTY Mode for Hearing Impaired
 

My roommate's grandfather (papa) is hearing imapried. He called me for the first time the other night through a relay service, there's an operator that types what you say and he reads it on a screen (for those who don't know what relay service is). Papa has a cellphone but can't hear what you say to him. I was wondering how to use the TTY function on our phones and if it would benefit him to have one. I googled it and searched other forums but haven't found any info. I know how to put the phone in "Full TTY mode" but I don't know what that does exactly. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

You may have a better chance calling your carrier and see what options they provide with this phone (or others)

I used to own a sidekick II and 3 they had software from sprint and ip-relay which turned the units into tty . I have this to check out for the 6700
I think "THINK" the tty options in the cell phones was for the old ttd's. it cleared up digitial feedback/static when using the cell phones with a ttd .

if he has tmobile tell him to get the sidekick. has 3 tty software programs already built in or FREE to download.

ok if you have ppc6700 or windows mobile.. this works. i just found it.. (cant really find it anywhere on the net. It was a "hide-a-link" on a news forum. http://blog.proud-geek.com/2007/03/1...wnload/wm/treo
