[720] Lost My Voice Recognition

MrRubberGloves · Posted: Sat Oct 13, 2007 3:06 pm Post subject: [720] Lost My Voice Recognition

Was using my 720 earlier in the week and was on a phone call via my 720 when all of a sudden I lost the call, tried re-dialling and they couldn't hear me and I couldn't hear them. Also, when trying to navigate to a spoken address, the microphone cursor in the top right hand corner stays yellow instead of turing to green whenever it hears a noise.

I've also tried the reset button.

Anyone know what to do apart from taking it back for a refund?

Thanks in advance.

I've got it working, don't ask me how though.

I copied everything from the 720 to my hard drive on my computer, I then "Reset Factory Settings" which meant I lost all my map changes, I then deleted everything from the 720 and then I copied all the files back onto my 720 and abracadabra the voice recognition is now working.

Anyone know why?

I had that about a week after I got my 720. I put it down to copying my MapSettings.cfg from a v6 machine, but that could have been a red herring. I think I cured it with a "return to factory settings" and it hasn't done it again since.

Well I went out to work last night, and when I tried to use the voice recognition it wasn't working, the microphone in top right hand corner stayed yellow.

Anyone know to fix it?, I've already tried the reset factory settings.

hi,

do you have a SD card in the slot?

have you tried taking it out?

i had voice input issues, memory card out seems to work more consistently for me.

hope that helps?

regards,

GaRy:)

I lost the voice recognition on the 720. I tried a hard reset and restored the backup but it still wouldn't fix the issue. I didn't have an SD card so the solution here didn't help.
I've now returned it to the store for a full refund, after numerous problems with the device not charging, hands free calling issues and losing PIO warnings.

I'm just glad I never sold my trusty 910 in hurry Smile
