well if she had a more sexy voice it could be "yes master, what is your wish?"

i think probably a major problem with installing another ver of voice command is that there is already a voice command on the tp with the files associated with this ver being system and read only. as the result, you cant completely uninstall the built in ver.

when i tried to install another ver, i got an error at the end of the installation probably because of this.

anyone have any comment on this??

Incoming call announcement worked for me once. I've tried to replicate it since then but haven't been able to. What happened was my phone was receiving an SMS while there was also an incoming call. It was weird.

not possible since it's built into the ROM.

there got to be a way to get this worked somehow... this might really be how we can get voice command to work

I'm having the same problem. I've tried tweaking every setting in the voice command options without any luck. I'd really like this to work. Currently my only choice is to answer the call blindly or take out my phone and look at it to see who's calling. Not exactly optimal use of a headset...

I'm having the exactly same issue... I emailed HTC.com today about it.

I hope their customer support will be better than Palm.

The problem with the call announcement on the TP doesn't appear to be with Voice Command, but possibly with the phone software on the TP - since Voice Command is generating the announcement file - it's just not being played.

The following registry changes might partially restore the call announcement, a short-term solution until something better comes along:

HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Category: change VoiceCommand1 to Ring
HKCU\ControlPanel\Sounds\TTSAnnounce\Script: change as5p to v0p (for vibrate and ring) or p (for ring only)

With this change, the ringtone will start - and then be interrupted with the calller ID/name announcement. (Assuming that call announcement has been enabled in Voice Command).

Only major flaw with this solution is that the announcement volume is low.
