ggw Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 Hi, I just bought a f700bt everything seems to be working great, except how do I get the unit to receive text messages for me using tts? My phone works perfect otherwise with it. THANKS! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

noxguy83 Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 If your phone supports it, it will tell you that you have a new message but it cannot display the message. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ggw Posted March 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 gay... I thought it was suppose to read them back to you using tts. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frum Roll Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 gay... I thought it was suppose to read them back to you using tts. Are you serious? Pioneer never claimed the unit would be able to do that. Text to Speech doesn't mean Text Message to Speech, it's a navigation feature that allows the unit to speak street names. If you're honestly upset you should have done some more research before purchasing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ggw Posted March 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 that is what I hearrrrd... but hell you cant beleive everything you hear... and I thought it would be cool.. but it's not going to ruin my day. So I'm really not worried about it, my phone works perfectly with it and by the sounds of it, I'm lucky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Egz Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 Ford Sync to my knowledge is the only one that reads text messages. But I can understand how you feel. When I saw this unit support speech recognition, I thought it was a cool feature. Then I learned it only worked on iPods, and not SD cards like I use. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
julesjams Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 I just double checked the manual and it does mention that if you select the voice with TTS capabilities, the audible message can be output. Check page 59 of the manual for the F700-900. I haven't tried it yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CamelTowing Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 An audible message that a text or voicemail has arrived. Mine says "You have got a message" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
