can someone please tell me why nokia has dropped self recorded voice tags for phoneing people and opted for a robot that speaks my contacts names in an alien language? i always end up phoneing people that i'm not intending to..... also is there any way of getting rid of it and recording my own or not?
my phone is the N70 and apart from that it was worth waiting for

i find that the robot voice works better then my own voice tags on my 7610! lol

It is not working on my N70. Can't dial people, can't start up blue tooth, can't start anything by voice at all. If you find out how to record your own tags, please let me know.

Hi kosik

Firstly, it isn't possible in N70 to record your own voice tags. For each of your contacts a name is synthesised automatically and compared with your voice when you do voice dialling.

When you use voice dialling, the phone adapts to your voice. This adaptation can be reset (or turned off completely). Go to Voice Com (usually in Tools folder), and select Options; Settings; Remove my adapts.

To invoke voice dialling, long-press the right softkey, wait until the beep and the display shows "speak now". It's best to wait a second or two even after that. Then say the name of the contact.

If the phone gets a match, it will dial. Otherwise it will show the best match and list other options on the left softkey (Next).

Hope this helps.

Thought you might like to see my thread after someone pointed me to yours.

http://discussions.nokia.co.uk/discussions/board/message?board.id=phones&message.id=3128

Seem we have a similar difficulty.

[seraphim]

as i said in stocky's thread, i am doubtful that this will help at all. he has a series 40 phone, nothing near as capable as the n70...

I tried the above, but when he talks back he still sounds like a beaten up person.

And worse, whatever i tell him, he keeps coming up with the wrong things. I have a feeling this whole dialing thing is based on US english and cannot handle any other languages (i tried english pronounciation and that fixed a few numbers, but 80% still doesn't work)

How do i fix this? if it is not possible i will have to hand it back to my boss and ask him for something else as this is not usable while driving.
