All my email/texts are announced over my headset when its paired and in use...My voice command works just like it did with the TP1...

Make sure your settings are correct...

Thanks for the helpful post. Yes, we understand how to get text announcements working. Mine reads the entire text message through the bluetooth.

What we really need to know is how to announce the ID of the incoming caller over the bluetooth headset. Something that no-one has been able to do, with any settings.

I apologize for not being specific...my entire text and email is read...sometimes I have to look at my s2u2 prevew to make sure the voice command is working right since it reads 9:00 as nine-zero-zero vice 9 o'clock.

My settings for notification options is only when using bluetooth hands free only.

In fact when I'm connected thru my mono bluetooth headset...all audio streams thru my headset. turn by turn voice nav, music, audio from video files...etc.

Try the following:

Settings>>Comm Manager>>Bluetooth>>(the gears tab) Advanced Settings>>Audio

then make sure you have checked "Play system sounds on remote hands-free device"

That's cool. But what we're really looking for is for when my old lady calls me it talks to me and says, "Your old lady is calling!"

That's what we need but we can't get unless we use a wired headset for some reason.

This has been discussed before (I believe earlier in this very thread). What you have done is to pipe all audio to your headset, which repeatedly opens and closes the audio gateway (or leaves it open if you play music, etc.) - this will wear your headset battery down very rapidly if you're not careful. Just FYI. That step is normally not required for caller ID over bluetooth with voice command.

Gotta love all the varying reports here with some people saying it's working and others saying they're on crack. How many years has bluetooth been around, and they still can't get it right. What a joke.

I am still waiting for a fix for this. This was one on the main reasons I returned my tp2 and went back to my. Heavily Hack tp. I still got hope for the tp2.

It might sound strange to some, but I won't upgrade to a device until I have confirmed at a B&M store that this functionality works as I expect.

I'll go to the store, conduct a test and if it doesn't perform, I'll be sure to explain to the clerk how it should behave and that I won't be purchasing until it is working as expected.

Has anyone gotten incoming caller id to work with earpiece yet?

The best I have gotten is caller id announced over the handset speker, but I was connected via bt headset (Jawbone).

I was even more surprised that the sprint update from March didn't address this issue. Frankly, it is the first thing I checked after I flashed the update ROM.
