Voice Annoucement of Incoming Call- A New Wrinkle?
 

I just received a call while I was entering text into a PWord document and lo and behold, I got the annoucement of the number of the incoming call through my headset.

Does this give anyone any clue as to what this thing is doing and why it doesn't work the way it should?

That thing announces arrival of text messages/emails and read subjects nicely on the Jawbone 2, dunno about incoming calls yet...

I'm using an original Jawbone and I get the announcements for texts and emails but not incoming calls. Not until this incident, anyway.

There is a reg fix that makes everything work as it should.

That is good to know,where is it?

Re: Voice Annoucement of Incoming Call- A New Wrinkle?
 

I second that- I live on this board and I must've missed it. A little help with a link, maybe? Much obliged.

I think he is referring to the "very low volume" fix where the ringtone you have selected stops playing after 1 ring , and then the call is announced at an extremely low volume. It's the 1st post of page 4 or page 5 of a different VC thread here. I'll look and try to post a link.

Here it is. Credit is the OP's below.

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.

if there is a link, please post. if you were thinking of above post, tell us please.

Yeah, I knew about that but didn't consider it to be a true "fix" because of the low volume. When my incident happened, the announcement was at full volume.
