Yes you still need to set the date and time so that it is greater than the date on the install file.
You can install Talks now without having to disable it as long as you are running a later version of 5.x. Nokia isn't producing any new phones. They are out of the phone business. Microsoft now owns Nokias phone business. The C5/C5-MP is probably the latest phone that Nokia made with buttons. Signed: Stephen Giggar Skype: dr-phone.

Thank you very much. Is it easier to put talks on a phone without sighted assistance? Seems I'm remembering something having to do with needing phones date and time to be set before Talks could be installed. I've been with Android so long myself now, am needing to upgrade my knowledge. Is Talks just for the older Nokia phones, or are there newer phones now available, but still with the physical buttons? My husband does not want to leave off with use of the physical button phone if he can help it, once his current phone should die. I have understood that these phones are becoming a thing of the past. Is it true, or is there a newer phone that would be good for him to upgrade to when the time comes? My understanding is that Android phones have gone pretty much with the touch screen, but are there current phones available that have the physical buttons hubby likes so we're not relegated to purchasing older devices?

IE www.talknav.com is just one. Another place is > www.blindsea.com You can find the software for it along with the manuals for it. Being you said you used it back in 2005 etc...; I would strongly suggest you read the manual chapters 3, 4 and 5 for starters. Talks has added a lot of things from that time frame from version 1.x of Talks to the 5.50.x version of Talks that is current. Most of the Talks commands haven't changed from that timeframe. Note the word MOST. Example of commands that have been enhanced. The old Talks star to get into the Talks settings is now done by Talks followed by a long press of SoftKey1. Can be done on the N95* models without opening it. Talks followed by9 to get the time can also be done by Talks followed by the call button. Much easier on the N95* models being you don't need to open the phone to do it. Example of an new command. Talks followed by a long press of 8 to copy the last spoken thing to the clipboard. Then you can use the normal paste function on the thing to paste it into a message, Email, Notes or whatever you are editing. Another new Talks command. Talks followed by a long press of 7 to change speaking of passwords. When we say a long press of an button; we mean you press that button for about 1 second. Signed: Stephen Giggar Skype: dr-phone.

Greetings, Thanks to Dennis Long, I have a place to go for my Talks questions. I'm writing on behalf of my husband who is loathed to switch to a touch screen. His Nokia 6650 is still working just fine, but I am trying to put things in place to where he can use another Nokia phone with Talks if this one should die. I would like to be educated as to what is going on with Talks right now, where the best place to obtain it is in the UddS., and what phones people are using. I used to use it a long time ago, but made myself switch to the touch screen, as I understood the Symbian platform is going away. I would have stayed with a push button phone for as long as possible, I loved the Nokia line. I started out years ago with Talks in 2005, I believe, a nokia 6620. I've also had the 6650, I think it was the 6682 for quite a while, then the N95 and N96. However, these never lasted long, dying of hardware failure. (Sadface.) Thank you all in advance for bringing me up to speed in making the wisest choices in today's market.
