N73 - voice dialling doesn't work, portuguese name...

Hi there,
90% of the mobile phones that I had were Nokia, from the old 5110 to my latest N73.
With two exceptions (a Motorola and a Siemens) I've always came back to this brand, because it had the best quality.
I never, ever had a complaint, at least until now.
Since I have my driving license and mobile I never in my life had to use my finger to dial a number or just press a key in my phone to make a call while driving, I've always used the voice dial (with 5110 I still didn't had this need).
And now I got a N73, and no call is made to the correct number (not even one), why?
In the older models I setted the voice tag for the phone that could interest me (3 or 5) and that was it, it worked 99% of the times, now, and until now, I never got one right.
Although I'm Portuguese, I always set my language to English, but to see if that was the cause, I set the language to Portuguese just to see if that could solve the problem, but without any effect.
Is it possible, somehow, to set the voice tags manually? If there any 3rd party application that is able to do this?
Thanks for all the help in making me a safer driver.

So, when you try to use voice dialing it never says "say a command..." ?

  • X1 Voice Remote - Voice part doesn't work well

    So I just got the X1 Voice Remote yesterday (7/30/15). Beautiful remote btw. It comes with a setup guide which I followed word for word (that's important for people to understand, I literally did the setup instructions to the letter) .... the remote works great....except the voice command part of it, you know the whole main feature of the remote -- doesn't work with much reliability.  At initial setup voice commands worked perfectly for a good 20 minutes..... then it stopped working. In frustration I powered off my entire X1 cable box...waited a minute or two and powered it back on. The voice commands worked again until I went to bed. This morning before I went to work voice command worked (I only gave one command this morning). Tonight I'm trying it out again...voice command is not working again.  During this whole time it should be noted -- ALL other aspects of the remote works perfectly....plus it controls my tv on/off and volume perfectly as well as that for my receiver. The only thing that seems sketchy is the voice feature.....To be honest the voice command is more a gimmick feature to me than anything...but it does annoy me that its not working. I mean the thing is BRAND NEW.

    I must admit, it has been quite a while since I have tried voice command on my XR11. I tried saying channel names vs. channel numbers and it worked just fine. With most channels but not all.
    However, it occured to me the mic in the XR11 could be responding to background noise including the TVs (or audio systems) own volume level.
    Maybe you could pay attention to the sound levels in the background and see what happens...

    It is supposed to be that smart.  And I even saw it work in the store.  The rep said "Watch ESPN" and it changed the channel to espn, without explicitly telling it the channel number.  Comcast even has this type of feature listed for the remote.   What boggles me is the it does kinda work sometimes, it just goes to the wrong channel.  
     

  • Iphone 4s visual voice mail doesn't work

    I set up new iphone 4s and visual voice doesn't work
    I wiped it out and restored..still no working
    tried set up as new phone and still not working
    companion Iphone 4s works fine

    Voice mail, including visual voice mail, is a carrier feature. Contact your carrier again and escalate the call until you get hold of someone with a clue.
    This is assuming you're using a Straight Talk CDMA iPhone. If you're using an unlocked iPhone with a Straight Talk GSM SIM card, that's not supported by either StraightTalk or Apple.

  • N73 Voice Dialling - How to?

    Hi Guys,
    Had an N73 for a few days now and have noticed a few things which I'm unsure about.....
    How do you add a voice tag to a contact? I may be being stupid but I can only find 'play voice tag' but nothing to indicate how to add one.
    A couple of my contacts already have a voice tag assigned from my old 6680 but there is nothing that tells me how to add or remove them.
    Also noticed potential bug....
    When you activate 'say callers name' under profiles, the idea is that when a person calls you (you must have a voice tag assigned to them), the phone says their name a couple of times during the ringing process. This seems to work ok, but when i tested it with my other half calling me, the phone did not display '1 missed call', but instead it showed the handset as if I was still on a call. This limited the functionality of the phone until this sign disappeared about 2 mins later.
    Any ideas?

    All contact should be assigned a voice tag automatically. No way to add a manual one!!!
    If you have transferred all your contact from a old phone the voice tags might not be assigned ocrrectly. I would recommend searching these forums for other users problems with this!!
    I have heard that when "say callers name" is activated this is causing some problems. If i was you i would disable it until a firmware update is available. Once again check these forums.

  • Voice command doesn't work

    I loved the fact that the Motorola Droid Razor would have voice command but it hasn't worked right since we bought them a week ago. Anytime I attempt to send a text, note to self, call...it pop's up "server problem". The voice command feature will do a google search but I have that widget on my home screen. Has anyone else had this problem?! I have went to the store and I am so sick of hearing, it must just be the local network, wait 24 hours and see what happens. IT HAS BEEN A WEEK!
    Frustrated!!

        Mamashep, I want to make sure you have full use of your Droid Razr. The voice command is a great feature! Are you still having this issue? Are you able to access the internet and other data applications on your phone? Are you using the voice command from the widget? If so, try removing the widget and re-add. If no change, try clearing the cache from the Voice Search by going to Settings, Applications, Manage Applications, All, Messaging, Clear data/cache.
    Let me know if you need further assistance.

  • Voice file doesn't work anymore

    Hi,
    I recently had this meeting, so I decided to capture the sound in iMovie HD. The reason why I choose for iMovie is because I don't have Quicktime Pro and wanted to edit some of it right away.
    Now, when I open the project in iMovie, the recorded audio file (called something like "Voice 1") seems to be damaged or unplayable. I don't hear anything when I try to play it. I can't seem to export it. Also, there's no volume, just the name of the audiofile.
    What can I do to make it playable again? Is it stored somewhere? I used to be able to listen to it, but not anymore. I haven't changed anything. Sorry for my bad English!
    ~ Alex
    EDIT: I see that this is in the wrong forum, I'll just wait and repost it later on. My apologies!

  • N73 power button doesn't work!

    Hello! Can anyone help me? My power button has stopped working, I can't change the profile or turn the phone off. I'm too scared to let the battery die down as I may not be able to turn the phone back on then. Is there another way to turn the phone on and off?

    Hi i've had exactly the same problem with my N95. taken it to my local carphone warehouse which has the in store engineer, and i've been told that its my on off button which has gone so to speak. if your phone is still under warrenty carphone warehouse will fix it for free, and it only takes a few hours.
    have a look on the carphone warehouse website for your local store with an in store engineer.

  • CK 7W with N73 & Remote Button voice dialling

    Hi wonder if any one can help me ,I have the ck 7w car kit and a n73 when I connect the phone to the ck 7w via blue tooth I can use the remote button to activate voice dialling and every think works as it should do. BUT if I connect it using the supplied cable to the pop port when I press the remote button it doesn’t activate the voice dialling just gives out a bump sound in the speaker .The phone works in every other aspect with the kit attached via the pop port .I bought the ck 7w to use the cable and a holder as I was fed up with my ear type blue tooth dropping out with the phone and while I know the phone works correctly with the ck 7w via blue tooth I didn’t want to use this option and stay within the law as best as possible by not touching the phone while driving. Hope its something simple and not that the kit doesn’t work with the cable would be so disappointed as it’s a nokia product.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards Malcolm

    Sorry perhaps my post was unclear.
    The problem was fixed - by changing the phone.
    The car kit was fine and not touched, the phone was changed for a different phone and it works well.

  • Iphone 4 voice Dial used to work great, but now, I can't get it to recognize voice commands. When i give it a command to call someone, it ends up repeating someone elses name and starts the call. Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

    I have an I phone 4 with 32g.  The voice dial used to work just fine, but now it doesn't recognize the words and ends up saying someone elses name and starts calling the wrong person.  It even won't recognize a number when spoken to it and speaks back and calls the wrong numbers.
    Lately, the phone has really slowed down.  I am not sure if this is the problem.. I have closed all the open apps and deleted any extra picture off the card and extra songs that I have downloaded and the slow problem still exists. 
    Would a reset work to restore the phone to factory settings and if I then resync the phone, would all contacts pictures and songs be restored?

    What is wrong with your Mac?  You still haven't told us what the problem is. Is the computer still under warranty or Apple Care?
    the next time i attempted to use the computer it wasn't fine
    What do you mean by "wasn't fine".  We can't see your computer so you'll have to describe what your're experiencing in detail without the editorializing.

  • I recently upgraded to mac os x lion. But now my broadband pen doesn't work. I'm portuguese and i use the vodafone network. Can anybody help me?

    Hello.
    My name is Margarido and i'm portuguese. I use a mobile operator named zon to access the web using a broadband pen modem.
    This operator uses the vodafone technical support (network) and since i upgraded to the Mac OS X Lion, the pen modem doesn´t work.
    Can anybody help me?
    I eared that Mac OS X Lion doesn´t support pen modems yet. Is this true?
    Thank you.

    Your best bet is to call the Vodafone technical support helpline. Since each manufacturer writes custom software for each OS. They might be working on new drivers...

  • My new updated N73(ME)has problem with Voice Diall...

    Hellow to every one,
    I ve just take my N73 from NOKIA service center, after 2 months im waiting for. The 1st problem was that after the latest firmware update my phone doesnt start at all. The 2nd problem was and still is that the voice dialling never works. My contacts have a nick each and are stored at phones memory. At service center says that every problem was fixed and for that they send my phone from Greece (where i live) to Sweeden (i think). What else can i do to make works voice dialling? Is that a bug of my phone so i must live with it?
    PLEASE HELP!!!!

    There is no volume adjustment that can be made.
    Do you have a cover on you iPad that may be covering the mic hole?
    If you frequently use FaceBook, you might consider getting an external microphone that plugs into the headphone connector.

  • Voice command for Contacts doesn't work after a re...

    Voice command for Contacts doesn't work after a reboot or a contacts restore.
    Steps to reproduce:
    1. Backup contacts. Open Files > Backup & Restore > Select Contact for Backup Contents and select Back up now.
    2. Edit/save a contact, press and hold the call button, speak contacts name. The voice recognition works fine.
    3. Restore contacts. Open Files > Backup & Restore > Select Contact for Backup Contents and select Restore.
    4. Reboot phone when prompted.
    5. Press and hold the call button, speak contacts name. The voice recognition does not work.
    Work around:
    Edit and save each contact.
    Additional Information:
    Social integration with contacts also does not work after a reboot. The facebook icon and "See what xxx is up to on Facebook" is not displayed. The same work around "Edit and save each contact" also applies. This occurs using the Nokia N8 and Nokia 808 Pureview.

    I have my phone paired with my car, I can do everything except it does not recognize any of my contact names. If I try say a contact name, it says "not recognized" but if I say the contacts phone number, the name pops up onthe display in my car.
    Has anyone had this issue, is there a setting I am missing in my phone?
    Hello, 
    This is not necessarily and issue with the phone. It could also be an issue with the car`s bluetooth software that is only limited to some functions like reading your contacts list, last calls, missed calls, etc. which is most likely the basic 2.0 version. 
    The Z30 has the 4.0 version that has a lot more communication capability but if the car`s bluetooth its a lower version, then you will not be able to take full advantage of it unless you upgrade the bluetooth software in your car. Call your dealer and inquire about the bluetooth software upgrade in your car   

  • My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

    Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?
