Ok. I've tried to install D2Go on every phone I
have which are phones from 9.1 through version 5.
It doesn't work. It just says cert error, contact
the application creator or something to that
effect. If anyone gets it to install please reveal your secret.

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. Whats 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 callers 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 phones 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.
