Cellular Phone Forum / Manufacturers / Motorola / April 2007V500/V525/V600 Voice Shortcuts - anyone got these to work?
My new V500 allows me to record voice names for menu and web shortcuts, but I can't get the phone to recognise them - it just asks me to repeat the name then says "Voice name not found". Am I missing a setting somewhere to enable this? I don't think it's just a recognition problem. Voice dialling works reliably from the phonebook. If I try to record the same shortcut name again (without deleting the first), it warns me a similar name is already stored and won't save it. Maybe the phone is just searching the phonebook by default? After I had recorded 5 web shortcut voice tags (while trying to get even one to work), the phone says shortcut memory is full, so this seems to be the capacity. Yeah this happened to me at first but after trying for about 5 times it started to work, and now I have no problems setting it up, if your problem persists then take your phone to a motorola repair workshop and they should be able to fix it through the warranty. > My new V500 allows me to record voice names for menu and web > shortcuts, but I can't get the phone to recognise them - it just [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > get even one to work), the phone says shortcut memory is full, so > this seems to be the capacity.

For a V500, go to Shortcuts (in Office Tools menu), select an item, press the menu key, select Edit. If there are less than five voice tags recorded, there will be a field for Voice - select this, press Change, then Record and press the voice key to start recording. That bit works OK. To use, press the voice key and speak the tag name. That's the bit that doesn't work (for me). > Yeah this happened to me at first but after trying for about 5 times it > started to work, and now I have no problems setting it up, if your problem > persists then take your phone to a motorola repair workshop and they should > be able to fix it through the warranty. Thanks, I'll try again. You didn't do a Clear or Reset did you? I tried switching the phone off and on after recording, as I'd had to do to fix another problem (I think the keypad froze), but it had no effect. I might try deleting all my voice dial tags if I have no luck.

On my T720 (Should be similar) after you setup the shortcut voice tag, you have to press "Menu>>Voice button, then say the word to access the shortcut. I was confused too at first, as I thought that I'd just have to press the voice button and say the command to access the shortcut. You have to press the "Menu" button first (Just like with the other shortcuts) then the voice button.

I'm pretty sure that doesn't appear anywhere in the User Guide. I did ask the question on the support site, so maybe an answer will appear their i.d.c. J> Ah! That's the trick. Many thanks.

I've found that the Motorola manuals are incomplete and poorly made. Mine literally fell apart within a few days. This group is the place to look for any Moto specific information. I'd still be experimenting and searching for answers if it weren't for the group. Good luck with your Moto. SignatureJack Thanks John, that did just what I wanted. Now I need a codec (whatever that is) to enable Vista's Movie Maker to read a 3GP file that came from my Motorola V551 cell phone.
