Hello, as the title implies I cannot get here drive to "talk" to me. The navigation is correct, a blue line is displayed and a flag at the end, but it doesn't talk.
I have tried various things, like reset phone and do a clean install, remove here drive+ and reinstall it, remove maps and redownload them, turn off bluetooth connections, wifi, cellular, restart the phone, remove all navigational voices from the here drive menu and redownload them, but I can't get it to talk. The speed limit warning is working but the navigational voice and the announcing of street names don't work.
Please help, as I cannot use it when I drive alone, I have to take my eyes off the street regularly.
voice must be downloaded and selected in options...
all working fine for me. i have only once problem with voice navigation... during driving voice stopped to work and after restart device (turned off and on) started to work again...
Thanks, voice is downloaded and selected in the options, actually I downloaded US, UK and Greek recorded voices and selected them one by one with no positive result.
Also connection is turned on, battery saver turned off, location turned on, map options are all set to default and map of Greece is downloaded for off-line use. Before 4 months I was hearing the navigational voice but now no.
The only thing I can further think of, is that I live in Greece and I got the phone new from a UK online shop, could this interfere with Here Drive+ ?

no... this not problem (Lumia 920 have global licence for navigation)... i downloaded Greece voice and tried on my Lumia 920 and working (is very sexy female voice )...
did you try hard reset? backup any important data from phone, charge it 100%, connect phone via USB, and make reset phone from "settings - about" (and pray )

Gonna try a silly question, you do have the volume turned up? I know it's silly but it wouldn't be the first time.

Hey people,
I have got a HTC Titan and a HTC HD7 both in the UK and I have had a weird problem from day one of having the Titan.
Basically upon activating my Titan for the first time, I started the Maps app and in its settings there was an option to read out aloud directions.
Upon planning a route, voice turn by turn started in British English.
However, after exiting Maps and restarting it, there were no more voice instructions! Even the option in Maps settings is gone.
I tried hard resetting and the problem repeats in exactly the same way!
I went back to my HD7 and noticed that it had normal voice navigation but I found that it was also set to English - International in regional settings.
I changed it to English UK and the same situation as my Titan arose!
Are your Windows Phones exhibiting the same problems, especially the Titan ?
same here. No button in settings, though I never saw it in the first place. Bought turn by turn instead. Great app.
I recently switched from Blackberry 9700 (Which I loved and still do) to HTC Titan. It a huge change for me (Both good and bad). So far I am trying to get use to the device and going through learning curves.
I have couple of question that I hope someone here can help me with.
Is there a way to have the phone stay off when you I am charging the phone at night? I turn off the phone before I go to sleep and want it to stay off till I wake up in the morning. When the phone is being charged using the wall charger there is no way to turn it off and it has to stay on.
Also how can I activate the LED indicator to flash when I have a new text, new email or even missed call? I would like to have that option as when I in meeting I can put my phone in silent.
Also the OS version on the phone is showing as 7.10.7720.68 and I was reading this forum and people are on version 8.XXXXX and was wondering how do I upgrade to a highest OS version.
Thank you in advance for all your help.
The led flashes by default you can update through the zune software or wait till its pushed to your phone
as far as staying on i dont think it can
Sent from my Apple Mac 2 in 1983
Sorry for the stupid question, but do I download the Zune software on my phone? I dont see where I can download the software on my phone.
Thanks again.
No unfortunately you can not power off your phone during charge.
Only thing you can do is use the airplane mode to disable network connection.
The LED will blink (green) for missed call but not for sms or e-mail (i hope they will include this in future update, i have not idea why this is not possible).
Zune is an application for your computer (not your phone). After you installed it, it will start when you plug your phone by USB to your computer.
If a phone update is available, Zune will automatically ask you if you want to update.
If you brought your phone unbranded (not simlocked) you should be able to update in a short time after update release (try to plug your phone to your computer every couple of days)
If you got your phone "branded" from a carrier, then a delay can occur. (Because the carrier decide if the update should be deployed or not.)
The last official revision is 7.10.8XXX something

You don't need to plug your phone to your computer to check for updates. You get a pop up notification on your phone OTA whenever the update is ready. You then plug in your phone to Zune.
You MUST install Zune to your computer as that is the only way you can transfer tons of pics, music and videos from PC to Phone and vice versa. Plus you get updates as mentioned.
Thank you all for your input and our answers.
I wish HTC and ATT would start working on these simple issues or requests. I think lots of people out there want to turn off their phone at night and charge it while its off.
The blinking LED is a must for everyone as we need to be notified of new texts, new emails, new calender notification and so on. I think adding that option this by HTC is not going to be a problem as we already have the LED flashing available for some notification(s).

I'm glad mine does not blink or it would be blinking all the time. I sync hotmail and exchange, and every hour it checks 4 other email accounts..
+1 for blinking for missed call and sms, but not for emails.
Also was very strange at first that I cannot charge while powered off, I think it would be better to train new battery in a such way.
If you synchronize many (or "regular") mailbox, of course the blinking should be switchable.
But if you have a dedicated email address for your phone (with push enabled) like i do, blinking would be useful (like for sms)
Hey,
I'm having a really strange issue with my Lumia 920. Whenever I connect with my laptop to my phone I get a black screen, followed by an infinitely showing Nokia logo. I have to shut down the phone by holding the volume buttons and power button.
Then when it reboots my date and time are wrong (always go back the 1st of september and a random time).
Any way I can fix this?
I've done nothing strange with my phone, didn't attempt hacking or things like that.
It's an unlocked phone.

Who is your provider and does your plan allow tethering? Also if the date and time come back up to default settings it sounds like the phone is almost doing a hard reset. Sounds like a bad phone or your provider is doing something to prevent you from tethering.

My provider is Mobile Vikings (I'm from Belgium). It used to work fine (before the Portico update).
I now tried the APN switch trick, which seems to have fixed it, in a way.
Most of the times I can only go to Google when connected with my laptop (would've made more sense if it were only Bing..), but whenever I click on a search result the page times out. Same thing happens when I go to facebook or so, the page times out.
Sometimes everything works fine tho, it's really strange.
Hey Guys in germany the Ota rolled out,

No, but you can turn off media volume.
For the other issue: go to settings -> lock screen -> smart unlock -> voice match
Turn it off then on again and it should work.
If it doesn't, you need to go to the google app in the play store and hit delete. it will ask you if you want to factory reset the app since u cannot delete it. do it and then hit the three dots in the top right corner and disable auto update fot this app. This is because google recently updated google app and voice unlock doesn't work anymore with mate 10 pro (again)

Problem stays. i think i have to factory reset my mate 10 that it works.... but meh -.-
I also got the . 137,and now my AOD is a complete mess. The clock almost always displays wrong time. Last nite the display showed like 3:05am, while in fact it was like 4:50 (woke up had to pee :l).
With AoD on, my fingerprint reacts slower... I don't know how such a premium device cannot be sorted out in order for such a simple function such as AoD to work without problems. Seems that for some reason Huawei puts battery life above functionality.
Oh and I don't even want to go to the issue of scrolling widgets...
Maybe someone can help me, i updated last week my phone. to 137. (ota) i reseted my phone to get a fresh rom
about a hour ago i was in my car , and my radio dosnt show titels anymore and i cant forward tracks via radio. only on my phone.
My radio says "BT AUDIO" and its just playing. not more. .... that kinda sucks on the version before it was all okey.
Yes i delted car and phone bluetooth and reconnect. same issue.
updated to 137 too. battery same as before. little youtube, little gaming and some browsing and im on 55% with 4.10h sot.I did do a full upgrade trough " download full upgrade package" witch was 2.9gb if that materes
Hi,
I have an S9+ with Rogers in Canada, which was recently upgraded to Android pie. Ever Since I have not been able to use Google assistant when the phone is in sleep mode. Prior to the update, I was able to say "OK Google: set the timer for xxx minutes", when the phone was in sleep mode. But now it doesn't work anymore, other than vibrating. It still works on other screens, just not when the phone is asleep.
I called Samsung but they were useless telling me that I need to press the home button and that it has always been so and that nothing changed with Android Pie but that is BS.
Can other Pie users please verify, that OK Google works on your phone when it is in sleep mode and if anyone else has the same issue as I and if you have a solution.
Thanks,
Roli
Sleep mode? as in while screen is off? or another mode?

Yes. When the screen is locked.
My phone was like that at one point, I am on Pie now and I had to go into the settings and make sure it was set to work even when the screen was off. Took a minute to find, have you checked there?
Settings/Google/Search, Assistant and Voice/Voice/Voice Match
I have. The phone vibrates when the screen is off and I say "OK Google" but is the screen remains black until I press the home button.
I'm thinking now that perhaps it has something to do with security and not with Google Assistant. I'm going to check my security settings. Maybe there's something there.
Come to think of it, I've had that happen before, not now but some time ago. I never sound effects, never really tried, somehow it just seemed to resolve itself after a while I guess. Good luck and keep us posted, you might be right in that it has to do with some security setting or something.
This? Access with voice match?
There is also that one underneath that says 'unlock with voice match', for use if you have a screen lock set up I guess. Did you try that one as well?

I’m sure that’s the option the OP needs to use.
I think it's a common problem with Google assistant and potentially the same as the 'voice unlock paused' issue, I've seen people complaining about both on pixel forums as well as on here (if Google can't get it right with their own phone what hope do we have!!). There were a few steps around deleting the voice model and resetting the smart lock agent (see screenshot). I did this and retrained the voice model in absolute silence which seemed to work for a bit but has since stopped. Annoyingly it doesn't seem to take into account when I'm at home and the phone is unlocked with smart lock!

OK. Here is my screenshot of the settings that I have on my phone. Access and Unlock with Voice Match are turned on.
Let me reiterate. The phone is reacting to "OK Google" on every screen so the voice match is working.
The problem is that when when I am on the lock screen and I say "OK Google" the phone vibrates, acknowledging that it heard the prompt but it does nothing until I press the home button or power button.
Have a look at this video. (I distorted for privacy reasons the audio because my phone and tablet were reacting when I was playing back the video):

I have the S9+ on Rogers and thankfully, this feature continues to work flawlessly after the upgrade as I use it often in my daily work..It actually seems to be more responsive after the update.
It can be very frustrating when the feature randomly stops working but it is usually due to an update on Google's end that causes it as I can usually fix it by going through the voice setup steps after an update..
In extreme situations you may want to uninstall and then reinstall the Google app..
Had the same problem myself and fixed it, just go to app info for Google and clear the cache and clear data, worked a treat for me

I'm on an S9+ with Bell in Canada and I can still unlock my device with voice when it's sleeping even though it gave me a notice that I would no longer be able to.
For some reason I've lost the ability to voice control any of my smart devices through Google Home. Seems like a related but different problem.
That, the lack of pro video mode and the brutal battery life have really turned Pie into a nightmare for me..
Hope they release fixes for these issues or I'll have to look at flashing..
