No Judy! I posted instructions a long time ago back in 2004/2005 of how to
install Talks without sited help. At that point, dealers whir wanting to
charge people $100 to do less then 5 minutes of work! That is why I posted
the instruction of how to do it on your own.
Basically! If it is Symbian 3rd SP1 and below;
The screen come up as City (Pressing SoftKey2) to bypass.
Next screen date. This requires you to know of you have an American
firmware phone or overseas firmware phone being the Month/Day are
reversed. If you don't know; Then enter something like 01/01/2015 and it
will not care as long as the date is after the date on the Talks signed
file. Then press OK.
Next is the time screen. Again you can press SoftKey2 to bypass this
screen being Talks doesn't care about the time.
Now on Symbian 3rd SP2 and above the screens for date and time are
reversed. Time and then Date. Same procedure for entering the date.
Give the phone about 15 seconds after that and then press the End Call
button to clear anything on the screen. You can then press a number to see
if you get touch tones or not. If not, press the End call button again.
Keep repeating until you can get touch tones. When you get toucn tones;
the press the end call button again to clear the screen.
Then installing Talks on your own; It is besed to connect it to your PC
using PC Suite. Again knowing what type of phone you have will tell you if
you need to arrow UP once or just being able to press select. Normally on
Symbian 3rd Edition SP1, you may need to arrow UP once I think it is to be
able to select PC suite mode. On Symbian 3rd SP2 and above you can just
press enter.
Then using your PC, select the file and tell your PC to send it to the
phone. Wait for the phone to beep; Then start pressing SoftKey1 with an 5
secont delay between presses. Do this 7 times. Then give the phone about
30 seconds to start talking. After Talks is installed, then you can
install the TTS.

Hi, Brad, It's been a long while since I hve used Talks, and thought
sighted assistance was needed to set date and time out of the box. Please
explain, for instance, should I get a Nokia N96 for my husband from Ebay,
I power up the phone, how can I install Talks without sighted assistance.
Would be great to know. Thanks in advance.

As of right now there is no further development being done on talks since
the Symbian platform is no longer being used on Nokia phones... they have
gone to Windows mobile OS. No you do not need sighted help to install
talks as long as you know what symbian version is on the phone.

Thanks so much for your message. I thought your observations were the
case.
Too bad. I was talking with a younger person just this past week who is
not enthrawled with touch screens either.
Do you think Talks has a future or will it also become a thing of the
past?
Correct me if I am wrong, but if memory serves, sighted help is still
needed to install Talks, especially when getting a new phone that needs
time and date set. I've gotten too spoiled with my Android with TalkBack
built in.
Thanks.
Judy

Hi judy,
I know that some android phones still have buttons. However, they are
equipped with touch screens, as well. They have slide-out keyboards. And
yes, phones with buttons are becoming a thing of the past. My guess would
be that in another five or maybe ten years, you will not be able to find
phones with a physical keyboard or keypad, anymore. I think it’s sad,
personally, because my grandparents adore their flip phones and have no
use for touch screen devices and all they can do. They simply want the
phones for texting, calling, and possibly, picture-taking. But I know that
some Androids do have slide-out keyboards still.
Take Care,
Dawnielle
