Voice Dialing
The voice recognition capabilities of your SCH-r400 are exceptional due to
advanced, speaker-independent technology. This means you do not need to “train”
your phone to understand your voice. You can use your voice in a natural manner to
dial numbers.
Note: End Calls Before relaunching the VoiceSignal voice recognition software — When you use Voice
Dialing to make a call, you must end that call before you can use other Voice Commands. See “Voice
SVC” on page 92 for more information.
Use the Call command to dial any number stored in your Contacts list by saying the
name of the contact (Name Dialing). You can also use Call to dial any telephone
number, even numbers not stored in your contact list, by speaking the individual
digits in the number (Digit Dialing).
Voice Dialing Tips:
•
Wait for the beep before speaking.
• Speak clearly at a normal volume, as if you were talking to someone on the phone.
• When saying a name, say the first name then the last name.

name followed by last name.
If the name is recognized, Voice Dial repeats the name and dials the

to three names and prompts you with “Did you say?” followed by the first
name on the list.
