Voice Recognition
This feature is used to activate a wide variety of functions on
your phone. You can use your phone’s built-in automatic speech
recognition (ASR) software to dial a phone number in your
Contacts or to launch phone functions. All you have to do is to
talk into the phone, and your phone will recognize your voice and
complete tasks by itself.
The screen displays and says “Say a command.” The phone
prompts you to say the name of the command you want to use.
To complete your task, simply follow the voice prompts.
• Call <Name or#> to call an entry in your Contacts list or a spoken
phone number. (For more information, refer to “Making a Voice Call”
on page 84.)
• Send message <Name or #> to launch text messaging on your phone
and specify a recipient for a new message. (For more information,
refer to “Sending a Message” on page 84.)
• Lookup <Name> to lookup a Contacts entry name from your current
list of available contacts.
• Go To <App> to jump directly to menu items or applications. (For more
information, refer to “Opening Menus using Voice Recognition”
on page 85.).
• Check <Item> to check your phone’s status. (For more information,
refer to “Checking Phone Status” on page 85.)
Note: Use ASR in a quiet environment so it can accurately recognize your
commands. Voice Dial works best in quieter environments. When
saying a name, speak at a normal speed and say the name clearly.
There is no need to pause between the first name and last name.
1. From Home screen, press Menu (LSK) ➔ Organizer ➔
Voice recognition.
2. When the Voice Dialer says the “Say a command” prompt,
say one of the following commands:
• “Call Steve Smith”
• “Call Steve Smith at home,...”
• “Call (888) 555 5555”
• “Send message Steve Smith”
• “Lookup Steve Smith”
• “Go to [Application]”
• “Go to Calendar”
• “Check Missed calls”
3. A menu prompts you to confirm your selection. If you said
a name with more than one match in Contacts, or if you
stored more than one number for the contact, you are
prompted to select from multiple options.
