Does Nokia 515 have TTS (Text-to-Speech)?

Hi,
my friend who lost 90% of his eyesight is an avid Nokia user.
He has been using E52 phone for many years mainly for it Text-to-Speech option which allowed him to use a cellular phone at all. (for those who do not know - the phone reads sms, menus, contacts etc.)
Recently, company he is working at, offered him a phone replacement so he asked for a newer Nokia phone that is similar to E52 functionality-wise. They got him Nokia 515. Although it offers most of the E52 stuff it looks like  this model doesn't have Text-to-Speech support in the system. Is there any way he can enable TTS on this new phone? Or is there maybe any App in the Ovi Store that would offer such functionality?
If not than maybe there is some different modern Nokia phone (but without a touch screen) that supports visually impaired people in such way E52 did?
Thanks for answering,
Leaffar

Nokia 515 uses as operating system Nokia Series 40.
Nokia E52 uses as operating system Nokia Symbian/S60.
I am neither aware of any solution via the Nokia Store, nor newer models than the Nokia C5-00 5MP. Technically compared to your Nokia E52, this is a step back because it does not offer Wi-Fi.

  • DOES THE IPAD HAVE A TEXT TO SPEECH FEATURE IN IBOOKS??

    DOES THE IPAD HAVE THE TEXT TO SPEECH FEATURE IN IBOOKS??

    Actually, there is a small workaround.
    It isn't the same as an audiobook, but it does the job.
    Go to Settings>General>Accessubility>Voiceover>
    I would suggest settkng the speed to slower cnsiderng you
    are gong to read books.
    Anyway turn voice oier on.
    You'll have to double tap everything since Voiceover sais everything you tap once.
    Anyway, once you're n the book, just tap the text and boom.
    I use ths on websites where there are a kit of text,
    You see, this feature is for those who are vision impaired or blind.

  • How to make a tts text-to-speech keyboard shortcut

    Hi,
    How do I make a tts text-to-speech keyboard shortcut
    to control the OSX "Speech" available as a contextual menu
    when you right-click selected text in Safari, TextEdit and other native apps
    *Speech > Start Speaking*
    *Speech > Stop Speaking*
    I can get this far:
    *System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts >*
    I have low-vision and need this on as many as possible or all text running on my computer.
    Less important: The "Speech" contextual menu is not available right-clicking text in Google Chrome. I could sure use it there too.
    THANKS!

    If you want it turned on permanently open Universal Access preferences, click on the Seeing tab, turn on VoiceOver. Click on the VoiceOver Application button for more configuration options.
    There's also a shortcut option for TTS in the Speech preferences.

  • Does Bridge CC have more text animation presets then Bridge CS6?

    so I upgrade from CS6 to CC and did not install Bridge CC. Then while in After Effects CC I try to view the text animation presets, but window informs me I do not have Bridge CC installed. I then download and install Bridge CC and view the animation presets, but seem all the same as Bridge CS6 has.
    My question is - Does Bridge CC have more text animation presets then Bridge CS6.
    Is there another procedure to acquire more? Did I click past something on my first launch of Bridge CC?

    My question is - Does Bridge CC have more text animation presets then Bridge CS6.
    Best try this in the After Effect forum, to my knowledge not many AE users are here at a regular base. Besides that, every suite version has its dedicated applications to work together in that suite, CC is no exception to that so for best practice use Bridge CC.

  • TS2755 I don't have an iPhone. My friend does and we have been texting for 5 months now and all of a sudden I can't revcieve her messages. I can message any other iPhone no problem and she has no problem texting other people as well. What is happening?

    I don't have an iPhone. My friend does and we have been texting for 6 months and havn't had any problems. All of a sudden I cannot get her text messages. She revieces mine but i cannot recieve her's. I can also text other iPhone users with no difficulty at all.
    What is happening?

    I would have your friend first do a reset on her iPhone. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. Also, SMS is a carrier feature and if she is having trouble, she might want to contact her carrier and have them double check her account provisioning. It might just need a reset on their end.

  • TTS(text to speech) prompts in CUCE

    hello everyone
    i want to edit sample script of CUE, i  want to ask if i can convert text into speech like using TTS prompts in it??
    i wanna change only wellcome greeting to my requiremnt so how can i do this in CUCE editor?

    Thanks for your reply.  That's what I was afraid of. (I could probably program such interface myself, but I really don't like working with Microsoft code, libraries and interfaces... and I have a bit of a time constraint)
    That wrapper executable you pointed to looks like it could be promising (and has source code), I'll check it out.

  • TTS(text to speech) right to left

    Hi
    I am currently tryign to format a TTS panel to read form right to left.
    I enter the text right click the boc and select right to left and hte text moves, but as soon as I click out of the box the text jumps back to left to right.
    I have tried different ways of doing this like changing the direction first for example.
    Has anyone experienced this and if so how can I rectify this?
    Thanks

  • Does Nokia Co have a solution to E7 Symbian Anna P...

    This will be my last complaint to write about my Nokia E7 and its problems associated with Symbian Anna update.
    I have intalled all the 2 updates but my OVI store does not work, I cannot install applications that I bought when I had symbian^3 firmware and don't want to go into details again.
    My Question to Nokia company is: Do you have a solution to our complaints about symbian anna or not? If you have it what is it not suggestions as you have been giving us. If you don't have a solution can you please release the downgrade to Symbian 3 firmware so that we go back but be happy using the phone as almost everybody in the world is complaining about symbian anna and it seems you are not listening..
    Give us a solution or will sale my lovely Nokia E7 phone after two weeks from today

    Having your phone re-flashed will resolve the issue, that's what I've had to do, and all is well now !

  • Using TTS (Text to speech) What characters are illegal?

    I'm using TTS to generate lots of audio files from text documents. TTS hangs up from time to time on different characters. Is there a list of illegal characters that I can try to avoid? The text is already written so I'll need to make some sort of batch process to strip and/or replace illegal characters. Here's an example of what Im typing in the terminal: say -o ~/Desktop/TTS/AudioFile.aiff This is the text to be read in the audio file.
    Maybe I'm just looking for characters that are illegal in the terminal?
    Any help is appreciated, Thanks!

    Yeah, excel might be putting escape codes or such in there, maybe een a printer driver & fonts if I know MS.
    I don't know about excel, but from NeoOffice I can save as an .xls file as txt/csv.
    I looked a an xls file in HexEdit & there is far more junk than text in it.

  • Where did the insert page go? and why does my documents have a text block?

    I have a document that I continually add to in Pages and is now 38 pages long. The problem is that recently the text has gone from being on the page to now being inside a text box?? I did not do anything to the document besides open it and start typing. Why would this have changed? Also I've noticed that the page break button which used to be in the tool bar, then moved to the copy/paste touch screen button, has now officially dissapeared all together from my Pages!!!! WHAT IS GOING ON!?!? there are no updates for Pages and I'm not really sure what to do. It won't let me add another page to this document? Someone please help me

    I will have your post moved " to iwork for ios "

  • Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.

    Does anyone know of an e-reader app for the iphone that has text to speech capability? I have a Kindle 3G that can read whole pdf documents and books but I cannot figure out how to do it on my iphone 4.
    All of the apps I have found on the App store either do not have the text to speech capability or if they have it they will only read a page at a time or simply read the text you paste into their window. I really do not understand what is so difficult about having this feature as Kindle provides it--though Amazon does not make the feature available on its iPhone 4 app.
    Please help.

    thanks. yes i am aware of the VoiceOver feature but it is NOT the solution to my problem. as you said, it is a solution to a different set of issues. i want the text to speech ability because i there are books i need to read but do not have the time to sit down and read them and have become used to listening to them read to me either by a professional human reader or with the text to speech software on the Kindle.
    I think Apple makes the best audio devices but i am really disappointed in this inexplainable shortcoming. if apple can give us siri they ought to be able to design a nice little button that i can push to turn on text to speech while i am in a document, book, magazine or webpage. clearly it is possible as apple has added the "reader" button in safari to have web pages dropped into the reader format.
    thanks for your suggestion though, it is what everyone suggests but it does not address the issue.

  • Does the Palm Pixie have a text "library"

    In regular SMS mode (not Yahoo or other messenger) does the Pixie have a text library or "fast text" where I can pre make messages
    then choose them while I am texting and send without typing it? This is NOT the same as predictive text (that I hate BTW)
    Having a library of text messages saves me tons of time and I dont see that in any of the reviews- I dont own the phone yet
    but really want to! This is a pretty big deal to me and thanks again for the help
    Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)

    Not currently, but I think that would be something great to add.
    I would suggest going to www.palm.com/feedback and put in a product feedback suggestion to have that added in a future webOS update.
