Possible solution
Try to avoid using special characters as the
system does not recognize them.
If the contacts are in capital letters, you
have to spell them. JAKE requires you to
say "Call J-A-K-E".
SYNC applies the phonetic pronunciation
rules of the selected language to the
contact names stored on your mobile
phone.
Helpful Hint: You can select your contact
manually. Press PHONE. Select the option
for phonebook and then contact name.
Press the soft-key option to hear it. SYNC
will read the contact name to you, giving
you some idea of the pronunciation it is
expecting.
SYNC applies the phonetic pronunciation
rules of the selected language to the names
stored on your media player or USB flash
drive. It is able to make some exceptions
for very popular artist names (for example,
U2) such that you can always use the
English pronunciation for these artists.
SYNC uses a synthetically generated voice
rather than pre-recorded human voice.
SYNC offers several new voice control
features for a wide range of languages.
Dialing a contact name directly from the
phonebook without pre-recording (for
example, "call John Smith") or selecting a
track, artist, album, genre or playlist directly
from your media player (for example," play
artist Madonna").
