Nuance TALKS&ZOOMS Version 5.20 Release Notification 1. Introduction We proudly announce the release of the Nuance Accessibility Suite - Nuance TALKS and ZOOMS - Version 5.20 supporting Series 60 3rd Edition / 5th Edition for February 17, 2011. This version also introduces support for Symbian^3 in Nuance TALKS. Screen magnification using ZOOMS is not yet supported on Symbian^3 in this release. For Users with a Premium license this version also contains the new Daisy2go 2.01 minor update. This release uses the same versions of Eloquence and Vocalizer as the previous one (6.1.123 and 5.22, respectively). The TTS installation file for Eloquence US English has been updated to extend the user dictionary. Version 5.20 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 5.01 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 C6-00 * Nokia C7-00 * Nokia E5-00 * Nokia N8-00 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 C5-03 * Nokia C6-01 * Nokia E7-00 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 5.20 compared to the previous version (5.01). 3.1. Support for Symbian^3 Nuance TALKS 5.20 is the first screen reader that supports the new Symbian^3 platform that is used by Nokia in some of its most recent smartphone models, such as the N8-00 and the C7-00. Support for the just-released E7-00 is likely, but has not yet been confirmed. Overall, access to Symbian^3 works in a very similar manner to the approach used for 5th Edition touch screen phones, by relying on a combination of list navigation using the side keys of the phone together with the ability to "explore" the screen. As reminder, "exploring" can be started by holding the finger on one position for about half a second, and then moving around. Lifting and tapping again anywhere on the screen will click on the most recently "explored" position. As usual, some features, such as side key navigation, are only available once the phone has been powered off and back on after installing or re-enabling TALKS. As a special feature for Symbian^3 phones which do not include physical [Call] and [Exit] keys, such as the N8-00, two new TALKS shortcuts have been introduced to still be able to perform these important functions quickly: * [Talks],[Power] simulates the [Call] key, e.g. to accept an incoming call or to open the list of most recently dialled calls. * [Talks],[long Power] simulates the [Exit] key, to hang up or reject a call. Note that the call is only hung up after the [Power] key is released, unlike with most other "long" TALKS commands. A few remarks on specific areas with limited accessibility on Symbian^3 phones: . Symbian^3: screen magnification using ZOOMS and Automation are not yet supported. . Some Symbian^3-specific gestures, such as pinch-to-zoom and long-tapping a menu item to open its context menu are not available while TALKS is running. Anyway, in the case of context menus it is generally possible to access the same functions by navigating to the menu item using the side keys, and then opening the Options menu. . It is not yet possible for TALKS to speak while a phone call is in progress. Speech is however available when an incoming call is ringing, and the ringtone has been muted by pressing [Key 2]. Please note that TALKS does not yet announce the number or name of the caller in this case. It is therefore recommended to use the "Say caller's name" option in the current profile to get this information instead. . The new Conversations view in Messaging, which lists all the incoming and outgoing messages for a particular contact, is not fully supported in this version. This view also opens by default when reacting to an incoming message from the pop-up dialog in the home screen, so it is recommended to go to the Options menu in the Messaging application, and to change the Message View setting from Conversations to Inbox. The Conversation view uses an embedded browser, so it can be made partially accessible using the new feature described in section 3.3 (see below). . Selecting a bookmark in the web browser is only possible by exploring the screen and tapping onto the list item, not by pressing [long Vol Down] on the list item. 3.2. Support for Ovi Maps This version of TALKS introduces support for the Ovi Maps 3 application that is either built-in or available as a download for most devices from Series 60 3rd Edition FP1 onwards. Initial support has been optimized for Ovi Maps 3.03 and 3.04 on keyboard-phones, though earlier and later versions (as found, for example on Symbian^3) can be used successfully as well. Generally, important information and focus details are read as usual on most screens. A few specific details are worth mentioning: * On the "My Position" screen, TALKS reads the address of the current position by default. Pressing [Talks],[long Key 2] for additional information also reads the city/region. * While following a route on the "Drive" and "Walk" screens, TALKS will read the street and distance to the next turn by default, and give additional information (e.g. current position, distance to destination etc.) when pressing [Talks],[long Key 2]. * While following a route in "driving" mode, it is possible to preview the next turns by pressing [Up] several times. This will read the street names and distances to travel for each of the turns. This feature is not available in "walking" mode. * While following a route, the standard keyboard commands of Ovi Maps are available, such as [4] to repeat reading of the last instruction and [2] to save the current position as a favourite. * Additional services, such as "Weather", "Events" or "More" in the main menu are not yet accessible. * The contents of the "About" screen (under Options > Support) are currently not read. Please note that on touch phones, some default read-outs may not be optimal, but all information is still accessible by "exploring" the screen. 3.3. Access to embedded browser views (e.g. Help screens) An increasing number of applications are using an embedded version of web browser to display content that does not directly come from a web page. Examples are the display of Help pages in many applications on 3rd Edition FP2 and later phones, contents of e-mail messages in HTML format and the Conversations view on Symbian^3 phones. On touch phones, these screens can be recognized by the fact that the virtual keyboard for the browser is displayed, but that navigating the page beyond the page title is not possible. Also, the announcement of the number of links (or "Page has no links") is missing. Version 5.20 offers a method to make the textual content (though not the links) in some of these pages accessible upon request: when such a page is shown on the screen, simply press [Talks],[Down] to read the page contents. If necessary, this will first try to convert the page text into a readable format, and then start reading it. In some cases, it may be necessary to press the key a second time to commence reading. Also, this method does yet work in all applications. 3.4. Various changes This section lists further changes to TALKS that were made in this update: Application support: * Focus in Nokia Internet Radio is now recognized. * Lists in N97 web radio are now read. * Made several improvements to accessibility of Java apps (e.g. automatic reading of non-editable text fields and of some types of input controls). * New e-mail application on C6-00 is now supported. * Reduced verbosity of Calendar app on newer phones (e.g. E52), and improved reliability of focus reading in some views. Touch screen improvements: * When exploring, objects that consist of nothing but an unlabeled graphic are spoken as "Icon". * Icon for closing full screen in lower right corner of touch browser is now read (as a soft key). * Holding [Camera] key while exploring screen forces explore mode, and prevents accidental clicking. * [Talks],[long Vol Down] to switch between navigation and volume control now takes effect immediately, and works in applications where it failed previously, such as Daisy2go. * Fixed incorrect cycling on [long Vol Up] from softkeys back to focus on screens with Text object (e.g. Notes or New Message). Daisy2go improvements: * Fixed some cases where a few seconds were cut off at the end of an audio file. * Changed tab width in Settings so all three tabs are accessible by touch. Bug fixes: * Fixed out-of-memory messages after opening and closing a large number of applications or messages. * Fixed reading of Symbol table with new E52/E72 firmware 051.x. * Fixed text entry in browser on phones with new web browser 7.2, and on N97mini. * Added missing punctuation reading for some common Unicode dash characters, and introduced short pauses when reading forced line breaks. * Fixed some cases where order of punctuation and right-to-left text is incorrect, or where right-to-left text was read in the wrong order. * Fixed problems with finding user dictionaries and app settings on drive F, especially after moving TALKS installation to a different drive. 4. Known Issues with specific handsets and apps . 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. . Touch phones: the symbol table in the virtual keyboard is currently not accessible. On 5th Edition phones only (but not on Symbian^3) 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. . Touch phones: 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. . On some phones, holding the [Camera] key does not launch the Camera application while this version of TALKS is active. The camera can still be opened through the phone's menu, or assigned to a softkey on the home screen. . 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. Also, some details on the "Now playing" screen are not read by default, though they are available through the Object Viewer (a feature only available in TALKS Premium). . N97: training mode will read the digits, rather than the letters, for the keys in the top row of the QWERTY keyboard. . 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. . 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: Daisy2Go does not support firmware versions prior to 20.x of this phone. 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 5.20. 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. 6. Full compatibility list 6.1.
