Using Voice-Activated Dialing

In addition to Sprint PCS® Voice Command (see page 153),

built-in voice recognition software allows you to say commands to perform common functions supported by your phone. There is no voice training required to use the voice recognition feature. You simply say the predesignated command displayed on your screen in a normal tone of voice to perform the desired function.

To activate voice recognition:

1.

Press and hold . (The phone prompts you to say a name or shortcut.)

2.

Wait for the beep and then say one of the following commands:

䡲 Contact Name <Contact Name>

䡲 New Message

䡲

䡲

Contact List

Voice Memo

䡲 Calendar

When it recognizes one of these commands, the phone launches the associated application. If the phone does not hear a command within approximately eight seconds, it deactivates voice recognition without taking any action.

Contact Name

You can voice dial from your phone with a single command by saying the name saved in the Contacts list (see Contacts list documentation for details.)

To place a call using Contact Name <Name>:

Press and hold .

Say the label name saved in the Contacts list for the desired number. For example, say “John.” The phone dials the number stored for the contact “John.”

If the location recognized for the name does not have a number stored in Contacts, Voice Recognition will play the message “No number available, John” and then launch the

Contacts application for that name.

Using Choice Lists

If Voice Recognition is not confident it has recognized a name or number correctly, it might display a choice list and prompt you with “Call?” followed by the first choice on the list. To confirm the choice, say “Yes,” or to hear the next choice, say

“No.” You can also select the correct choice using your keypad.

To cancel the command, say “Cancel,” or to say the name or number again, say “Repeat.”
