Treo 700wx - Voice speaks announcing caller, calendar, etc

On my Treo 700wx, I had a feature that would have an automated voice speak annoucing the caller, event, alarm, etc.  I never set it up on that phone, it just did it.  Now, I have upgraded to the 800w and I cannot figure out how to make it work the same.  I thought perhaps it was not offered as a feature on this phone, so if that is the case, how do you make it STOP on the Treo 700wx?  Just so I know where to find it or even what it is properly called.
Thanks!

Interesting additional information?
Based on the apparent path to the AppleModemOnHold.app in the Console.log, I ran this in AS:
tell application "Finder" to open ("MAC HD:System:Library:Extensions:
IOSerialFamily.kext:Contents:PlugIns:InternalModemSupport.kext:
Contents:Resources:AppleModemOnHold.app:Contents:Resources:")
At this point, I'm in entirely unfamiliar territory, but I opened the English.lproj folder, which contained two Interface Builder (.nib) Documents and a Strings File ("Localizable.strings").
One of the .nib documents was named "CallLogWindow.nib," so of course I opened that and was presented with several items, one of which was a window named "Incoming Call Log." But that window looks like a "prototype" window, having entries that look like the result of a test.
Overall, I can't decide whether I was any closer to my goal, and there are many other things in the English.lproj folder. It's 3 am here, so I choose to stop for now.

  • Newly activated Palm Treo 700wx unable to make calls

    Just activated an old Treo 700wx and I am able to use the internet but unable to make calls or receive text messages. Just ends the call right after it began. Tried hard reset, soft reset, re-activating... nothing.

    I suggest you go to the HP - Palm web site and to the community forums there. You will see a thread how Syniverse, a subsidiary of Altel, ATT, Verizon, et. al changed their coding schemes and that the Palm Treo 700WX can't accomodate the new scheme. I contacted the CEO of Verizon Wireless and they fixed it for me only.

  • Treo 700wx Calendar/Task Reminders Stopped Working

    I have had to do a hard reset on my Treo 700wx about five times over the last couple of months because my reminders stop working for task and calendar items. I still get the voice command which tells me about the upcoming appointment, but no reminder appears and if I miss the voice command for whatever reason, I do not get prompted at all about the appointment. Same problem with tasks.
    This is a frustrating problem and I'm near the point where I am simply going to tell Sprint they need to replace my device with a new Palm based OS. I should not have to do a hard reset every few weeks and then reinstall/reconfigure my device.
    Since the main draw of these devices is for time management, I fail to see why Palm has not come up with a solution yet.

    This has gotten very annoying!

  • TREO 700WX Caller id problem

    Is there any way, patch, software upgrade to fix the caller id situation on the TREO 700?  When on the phone, if another call coms in, the caller id shows the same number that I'm talking to on the first call.  It does not show the number of the new incoming call.
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Alltel)

    Then hard reset the device and reactivate. If the problem continues speak to your carrier about replacing it under warrenty. (If it's still under warrenty.)

  • My Iphone 5s doesn't ring anymore (sms, whatsapp, phone call, reminder in the calendar, etc)

    My Iphone 5s doesn't ring anymore (sms, whatsapp, phone call, reminder in the calendar, etc) I can't find why.
    I trieds to go on Youtube and for that I have sound so it is just for the rings.
    Can somebody help me please?
    Thank you so much!
    Mary

    Have you checked your mute switch (right above the volume buttons)? If you see orange, it is muted and will affect the rings, but not the audio on YouTube.
    Just toggle the switch so you don't see the orange and check again.

    Hello, can anyone help Me? I have a problem with the external speaker of my iphone 4s. It works when i get calls, messages etc but nit for any app. The headphone does still work. The volumebuttons also do not show the regular volume bar. Any ideas please?

    Clean the iPhone charging port with a clean dry toothbrush. Dust or debris is causing iPhone to believe it is in Dock station.

  • How do I increase voice speaker call volume when ...

    Hi
    http://www.bootstrike.com/NSeriesN95/faq.html
    I have got my brand new N85 8GB, I tried the suggestion (197) in the link above to increase voice speaker call volume when I am in a call, but it did not work, neither for the "Speaker" nor for "Handset".
    Any suggestion ?
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You should increase volume during a phone call with volume keys, unless your keybord is locked during conversation. Try to talk with your phone slided up (open keyboard) and try to increase volume with your side volume controls.
    Good luck

  • Treo 700wx calendar not synching

    Hi, I am using a Treo 700wx and have been using it to synch with Exchange for a year successfully.  I recently had a problem that resulted in a hard reset of my phone so I had to reset up the Active Synch options.  Everything but my calendar is re-synching successfully but even though the calendar is 'checked' for synching, it is not synching and it appears that NO calendar entries have been set.  Would appreciate any advice!  Thanks.
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Sprint)

    Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums.  It sounds like there is probably a problem with the eas profile on your device.  Go into the profile, start-programs-activesync-menu-options.  Uncheck all boxes, for the exchange profile, then sync.  Once the sync is complete go back into the profile and sync calendar only and test, if successfull then add 1 box at a time sync and test to insure data is moving.  I also assume you are syncing wirelessly not thru the cable.

  • How do I backup my contacts/calendar on my Palm Treo 700wx to my PC?

    After loosing my entire address book this weekend due to something not working with my password on my device, I had to hard reset it which I am back at square one. To prevent this again can anyone tell me what I can do so that It will save my contact list and my calendar on my PC? I tried to select it on the Active Sync options but it will not check.. Any help is appreciated
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    Have you tried to do a regular sync from your palm to your computer?
    After installing the Palm Desktop cd onto your pc, you need to click on the hot sync button (it is one of the applications you will find listed on your device) and then click on the middle hot sync icon. Your device will start to connect to your computer and all your info will be backed up on your pc when the hot sync is done.

  • Trouble with palm treo 700wx

    hi new to forum and palm treo. i had a centro but wanted a windows software phone. anyway my phone on activation was working fine, the next day, i could make a call but i couldnt hear anything nor could anyone hear me. i messed with it and found that i could hear through the speaker, but cant even use it that way now. did both the hard and soft reboot, no help. any ideas, i was messing with the phone that night tryin to learn how to use. did i screw up a setting or something
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Sprint)

    thanks for the reply, the sprint store agreed with you that it was hardware related and exchanged it for a new 1. i had purchased it on ebay and got the insurance when i activated it, so i now have a brand new 700 for less than a hundred and no contract.
    1 more question, is it possible to get stereo sound out of the 700 headphone jack??  i tried the adapter that i had bought for my daughters rumor, but only mono sound. what can i do??

  • Treo 700wx problem

    a couple days ago my VZW 700wx was giving me the message that my storage space was becoming critically low. i deleted a few .cab files and put it away. i was also outside of available coverage range while this was occurring.
    about an hour after that took place, i looked at the time on my phone and noticed my battery power was declining so i tried to shut it off. this is when the fun started.
    it wouldn't power off. i received several application crash errors (google maps, youtube app, etc). so, i figured it would be good to remove/replace the battery. at this point the Treo followed by WinMo 6 splash screen appeared and it just stayed there. i was preoccupied so back in the pocket it went and i got back on the road.
    further down the road when i was back within cell coverage, i picked up the phone and the WinMo splash screen was still up. so, i once again removed/replaced the battery. and the phone came up. as if it had been hard reset.
    this, of course, is a giant PITA, as i had several items that had not been backed up.
    here's the odd thing: my available storage is still critically low. i haven't done anything to the phone since the crash/reset except change a few user preferences. could it be that it wasn't a full crash or reset? has anyone seen this before? is there a possibility that i can retrieve the items i want to keep? if so, how?
    a few other observations...
    * emails, contacts, calendar were not wiped out but ActiveSync settings were.
    * MMS messages were not wiped out.
    thanks.
    Post relates to: Treo 700wx (Verizon)

    After the hard reset, the Treo will no longer have your contacts, calendar events, etc. did all your contacts get erased? If they did, any pictures on the Treo will be deleted except for the pictures that come pre-loaded in Windows Mobile.
    To see if the pictures are gone from the Treo look in the following location on the Treo,
    By default, pictures are stored in the My
    Pictures folder on your smartphone.

  • Announce Caller

    I used LG Env2 before I switched to iPhone 4S. LG Env2 has a feature to announce caller's phone number or name (if he/she is in contact list). Does iPhone have this app?

        Hi FrankAtCommunit. That name annoucement is a great feature. I can see why you'd like to have it carry over to your new phone. There is a way to announce every call that comes in. It's called Voice Over and it can be found in Settings > General > Accessibility. Whenever you receive a call it will automatically speak the callers name. But as a heads up, the Voice Over feature is designed to speak everything you touch on the phone and will change the way your phone is used.
    If you're looking for something that doesn't change everything quite so much and just says the name or number of a caller, mcjake333 is also right. With the hundreds of thousands of applications through the Apple Store, there may be one out there that's right for you. Try searching key words like "announce name" in the store to see if you can find the right fit for you.
    Thank you

  • One Apple ID, two iPhones, same iCloud. How do I get rid of this without losing contacts, calendars etc?

    Hi there, hope someone can help.
    My mum upgraded about 18 months ago to an iphone 5 and to set it up we used my Apple ID as it was linked to my dads bank card. Had absolutely no problems with this, everything has maintained separate.
    However when my mum decided to update to ios7 (and as she is a novice has not backed her phone up since upgrading) At first it appeared that when she updated she had lost all her contacts, calendars etc but this was restored through iCloud.
    Now our phones appear completely linked. Eg when I receive a FaceTime call it goes to my mums phone as well.
    So is there any way of splitting our iCloud account without having to lose all our data? Especially as my mum has months worth of business meetings. To make it worse we currently live the other side of the country from each other, so going to the Genius Bar seems rather pointless!
