[Electronics-Talk] anyone have instructions to turn full text tp speech read out on lg450 phone

[Arlene]

That was interesting hearing about that credit sized kyozera phone. Anyway, 
I have an lg 450 flip phone and it appeared to me as if the speech got 
totally turned off about a year ago. Anyway, I got the phone out and found 
that the number keypad is talking, so if at all possible I'd like to get the 
menue's voice talking, if anyone has the  step by step directions. I did 
call lg and talked with the customer  service. Unfortunately they didn't 
have the lg450 in their office where the customer service lady could go 
through the steps with me with the actual phone, in other words to tell me 
when to arrow down once or twice or more or arrow to the right and so on. 
Last year they did have this phone in their office when I was trying to get 
the speech on, unfortunately I wasn'b able to get it on, even though I tried 
about 4 times or so with the customer service. If anyone has the 
instructions I would love to give it a try. So thanks a whole lot if anyone 
has these instructions. Also I did search on the internet, and they had the 
instructions how to put the speech on, but again unfortunately it didn't 
tell you in order, how many times you had to arrow this way or that way and 
when to press the okay button and so on. It would be great to have the 
instructions written out that way on a web page, and also on these company's 
web pages, such as the t-mobile site where I did find the instructions for 
turning the speech on the lg 450. If there's a site like that already, I 
could probably had to it with instructions on how to turn on the text to 
speech of some of the other phones. Again thanks to whoever might have these 
instructions.
