Introduction >> We proudly announce the release of the Nuance Accessibility Suite - Nuance >> TALKS and ZOOMS - Version 5.21 supporting Series 60 3rd Edition / 5th >> Edition / Symbian^3 for August 11th, 2011. >> >> Version 5.21 is a free upgrade for all Premium Edition licenses generated >> after November 13th, 2007 (the release date of TALKS 3.50 for 3rd Edition). >> In particular, this means that it can be installed by any customer who is >> currently able to run version 4.11 or 5 without requiring a new license. >> 2. The new handsets >> 2.1. Changes to the list of supported phone models >> The following handsets are newly supported (please see section 4 "Known >> Issues" about some limitations): >> >> Nokia C5-00 5MP >> Nokia C5-03 >> Nokia C6-01 >> Nokia E6-00 >> Nokia E7-00 >> Nokia X5-01 >> >> We also assume the following phones to work without major problems. However >> we have not got enough test results yet to definitely confirm this: >> >> Nokia X7-00 >> >> See section 6 for a full list of compatible handsets for this version. >> 3. What's New? >> This section lists the improvements of TALKS&ZOOMS 5.21 compared to the >> previous version (5.20). >> 3.1. New versions of Eloquence and Vocalizer >> This update includes new versions of both Eloquence and Vocalizer packages >> for all languages. Old versions of these voices can still be used, however >> it is important not to mix different versions of Vocalizer on the same >> phone, as this can lead to problems when switching to a Vocalizer voice. >> >> . Eloquence 6.1.125: this version uses 16kHz audio output on all >> phones. This both improves compatibility (for example making speech during a >> call possible on Symbian^3 phones) and audio quality. In addition, this >> version fixes crashes seen with the US English version packaged in the >> previous TALKS releases. >> >> There are now two installation packages available for US English, one called >> Eloquence_enu_dct_6_1_125.sisx which contains an extended pronunciation >> dictionary, and one called Eloquence_enu_6_1_125.sisx without the >> dictionary, leading to somewhat higher speed and lower memory consumption. >> >> . Vocalizer 5.42.1: this version includes the latest updates from >> ongoing Vocalizer product development, with various improvements across >> several languages as voices. >> 3.2. Other changes >> This section lists further changes to TALKS that were made in this update: >> >> Application support: >> >> . The new web browser (version 7.3) introduced with the June 2011 >> firmware update for some phones, e.g. the E52, E72, C5-00 and E5-00, is now >> supported. This also fixes access to e-mails that was lost for the same >> reason on these phones. >> . Some new items can be read on the Home screen, e.g. profile name, >> Widget Catalogue or Microsoft Communicator entry. >> . Internet Radio: volume keys are enabled by default also on touch >> screens. >> . Internet Radio: Added reading of Now Playing and Station Info >> screens on 3rd Edition, plus some error popups. >> . Symbian^3: [long Vol Down] now defaults to [Enter] in web browser, >> to allow selecting bookmarks with side keys. >> . Symbian^3: Added support for reading focus in "album cover" view. >> . An embedded browser without a window title is announced as >> "browser", to clarify situation e.g. when opening an e-mail body. This >> indicates that [Talks],[Down] can be used to read the contents of the page, >> if it is not otherwise accessible. >> >> Touch screen improvements: >> >> . Disabled use of [Camera] key to force "explore" mode. This feature >> was introduced in version 5.20, but led to various incompatibilities, for >> example by blocking the starting of the [Camera] application >> . Symbian^3: rotated portrait [Talks] and browser keypads by 90 >> degrees, to better match softkey layout on screen. >> . The symbol table of the virtual keypad is now being read. Note that >> the symbol table can still cause the virtual keypad to become inaccessible >> on some 5th Edition phones. >> . Symbian^3: Text input into objects announced as "Fields" (e.g. time >> or date) is now supported. Note that it is still not available on 5th >> Edition models. >> . Symbian^3: Virtual keyboard in Ovi Maps Search dialog is recognized >> in the proper place on the screen. >> . Added "Change reading of graphics" and "Read date and time" to top >> row of virtual keyboard for [Talks] key. >> . Multi-tap gestures are no longer blocked by TALKS. >> >> Other changes: >> >> . Symbian^3: speech on a call is now supported. As a result, the >> Caller ID can be read, for example by pressing [TALKS],[Up] when call is >> ringing. >> . Disabled T9 dictionary in Manual Registration screen for easier >> input of license. >> . You can now press the second key in a TALKS shortcut, such as >> [Talks],[5], together with the [Talks] key, rather than having to release >> the [Talks] key first. >> >> Bug fixes: >> >> . Fixed cases where the virtual keyboard was not being detected in >> certain situations (also affecting Daisy2go). >> . Fixed rare application crash when long text is changing, e.g. >> scrolling appointments in month view of E52 calendar. >> . Fixed restart of Symbian^3 phones when using zoom gesture in >> browser. >> . Fixed recognition of focus in e-mail inbox in "portrait" mode. >> . Fixed rare incidents where the following text was often being >> suppressed after a particular menu item (the exact situation where this >> happened depended very much on voice, speed, audio settings etc.). >> . Fixed cases where task switcher on Symbian^3 phones was announced >> when it was not in the foreground. >> . Braille: partial fix to problems entering SMS messages using >> Braille. The contents of the message and the number of remaining characters >> are now updated when either [Space] or [Delete] are pressed, so adding and >> deleting a space at the end of a message can be used to make sure the >> message gets sent in full. >> 4. Known Issues with specific handsets and apps >> . Nokia browser 7.3: opening drop-down lists by pressing [Select] >> currently does not work reliably, due to a bug in the browser. >> . In very rare cases, this version of TALKS may leave the audio >> channel of the phone open until the next sentence is spoken, leading to >> higher battery consumption and possibly conflicts with the SMS signal. This >> is expected to happen only in very specific circumstances, and thus not >> affect the majority of users. >> . Nokia E7-00: the default [Talks] key on this phone is the [Menu] key >> at the front of the device. This key will not behave correctly if it is >> pressed twice too quickly, or if the touch screen is used within about a >> second after pressing [Talks]. It is recommended to always wait a moment >> after pressing the [Talks] key on this phone. >> . Symbian^3: double-tapping on a scroll bar may lead to a restart of >> the phone, especially if it is done quickly after opening a new window. >> . Nokia C5-03: In the List view of the main menu, no cursor is >> displayed when moving around with the side keys, so the focus is not spoken. >> As a workaround, use either Grid view, or explore the screen to select menu >> items. >> . Touch phones: currently, there are some limitations to the use of >> the on-screen keyboard for text entry. In particular, the menus for >> switching to other keyboard layouts and for picking suggestions from the T9 >> dictionary are not fully accessible. Switching to other keyboard layouts is >> not recommended, as some of them (e.g. mini-Qwerty or handwriting) are not >> yet supported by TALKS, and can be difficult to exit. >> . 5th Edition only: On some phones opening the symbol table in the >> on-screen keyboard can lead to the keyboard stopping to take input until you >> press [Exit] to go to the main menu, and then return to the application >> where you were entering text. >> . 5th Edition only: text entry into an object announced as "Fields" >> (e.g. a date or a time) is not supported well by this version of TALKS, as >> the virtual keyboard cannot be used with speech. This limits the use of the >> Calendar and Clock applications that rely on these types of objects for date >> and time input. >> . Internet radio on 3rd Edition phones: long list items start >> scrolling horizontally when they become focused, so TALKS will repeat their >> contents partially a few times until they stop moving. >> . N97: training mode will read the digits, rather than the letters, >> for the keys in the top row of the QWERTY keyboard. >> . E55: [Talks],[digit] shortcuts have been reported to not work >> properly on this phone, most likely as a result of the unusual keyboard >> layout. >> . 3rd Edition (FP1 and FP2): the "Search" application is not >> supported. >> . 3rd Edition FP2: You will notice a slow response of voice >> recognition "beep" after holding [Key 2] when TALKS is not muted >> . E75: When using ZOOMS, moving around the screen by holding down the >> cursor keys is currently not possible. The magnified portion of the screen >> always follows the current focus position. >> . N96: "Photos" application (and "Photos" submenu of "Gallery") is not >> supported. >> . N96 (prior to 20.x firmware), N91 and Nokia 5500: Daisy2Go not >> support playback of audio books due to a missing MP3 codec. >> 5. FAQ >> Q: Your software does not install on my E-Series handset or branded device, >> and reports a Certificate Error! Why? >> A: While TALKS&ZOOMS for Symbian itself is certified, and thus can be >> installed on any supported handset, the installers for the TTS engines >> (Eloquence or Vocalizer for Mobile) are not signed. E-Series handsets and >> some branded devices only accept the installation of signed software, unless >> you turn of the corresponding option inside the Application Manager: >> . Open the phone menu. >> . Open the App. Manager inside the Tools folder >> . Press "Options", then select "Settings". >> . Set "Software Installation" from "Signed only" to "All". >> . Press "Back" to close the Settings dialogue, then "Exit" to close >> the App. Manager. >> . Now, you can install the TTS engine. >> Another reason could be that the date on your phone is not set correctly - >> as Symbian apps need to be digitally signed, SIS files can only be installed >> if the phone is set to a valid date. >> >> Q: Can I install the new release of TALKS&ZOOMS, while a previous release is >> active? >> A: Yes, if the new version is installed to the same memory location as the >> previous release. If you would like to change the memory location, you have >> to remove the previous release first! >> >> Q: Why do I get an "Upgrade error" when installing the S60 3rd/5th Edition >> version? >> A: The most likely reasons are that you have used a beta release, or already >> have the Nokia TTS driver available that was installed as a separate file >> with version 3.10. Please remove any beta version, as well as the Nokia TTS >> driver or the Nuance Speech2Go Reader application, before upgrading to TALKS >> 5.21. >> >> Q: Why do I get an "Invalid serial number" error when trying to activate a >> demo version of TALKS, even though I have entered the code correctly and >> never used TALKS on this phone before? >> A: The most likely reason is that TALKS thinks the demo has already >> "expired" because the date on the phone is set incorrectly, usually to some >> date in the future. >> >> Q: Why do the side keys on my touch screen phone no longer move the cursor >> after upgrading to the latest version of TALKS? >> A: Some keyboard functions, such as [Talks],[digit] shortcuts on the Idle >> screen and the use of the side keys to navigate through menus on 5th >> Edition, are only supported after the phone has been rebooted once after >> installing or re-enabling TALKS. >> 6.
