There was a feature in WP8.1 in accessibility settings called "Say who's calling" or something like that, so when someone calls the phone starts saying "Call from John" while playing ringtone.

That settings is removed in W10M appreantly, but I had this feature enabled in 8.1 and after upgrading to 10, it was still enabled. (But now it seems that after a hard reset it's not enabled anymore).

So, it seems like that the functionality is there, just there's no settings UI for that.

Anyone knows what's the registry key for that feature?

Try HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech\Settings\AccSpeech = dword:1 and tell me if it works.

You're on 10586 right? I have that toggle in build 14332, Settings ➡ Ease of Access ➡ More options.

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Speech_onecore\Settings\AccSpeech
There's also another key here . what's the different di you think between these two keys ?
I have L950XL and don't have access to Write on these values so I weren't able to test

@ngame, the onecore key did nothing when I tried it. I think it's for a future version which is not enabled in current builds.

Yes, it works perfectly. Thanks :)
Just, it uses Microsoft Mark voice, no matter which voice is selected in Speech settings. (in 10586). Is it the same in 14332?

Also, Good to hear they're bringing the UI of this setting back in 14332.

I'm using L535 with latest insider build of windows 10. The camera app force my phone to record video at 1280x720/12fps which makes the camera app (sometime even the system) crash. Is there anyway to prevent this?
(I found the key HKLM\SOFTWARE\OEM\Nokia\Camera\RFC\Resolution and tried to change it to 0 but it seems does not work)
Also the camera app does not have a flash button (my phone has flash). I also found the Flash key in registry but I have no idea what to do with it. Help me pls

I enabled double tap 2 wake on my 630 and it works great ( no support normally).
So I'm wondering is there any way to hide navigation bar? I know it is related with the screen size (54 pixels are for the nav bar). So Is there any way to fake it like the screen is 480x800 instead of 840x854?
I found some keys about physical screen resolution but I didn't try to change them since it's my main phone.
I added the keys like isswipeuptohideenabled and isautohideenabled but still no luck.

Go to:
HKLM-> SYSTEM -> TOUCH -> Settings

Add those dword keys:
WakeUpGestureSupported = 1
EnableWakeUpGesture = 1
WakeUpGesture = 1


Go to:
HKLM-> SYSTEM -> TOUCH -> Settings -> FF

Add those dword keys:
WakeUpGestureSupported = 1
EnableWakeUpGesture = 1
WakeUpGesture = 1

Go to:
HKLM-> SOFTWARE -> OEM -> Nokia -> Touch -> WakeupGesture

Add those dword keys:
Enabled = 1
ProxyDetected = 1

I know some of the keys are not needed but I added them just in case and I got dt2w working on my 630 :D

    Step 3: Key should be set to "Sound".

    Step 4: Change the value of the files location to C:\Data\Users\Public\Ringtones\YourRingtoneName.mp3

    Example:
    Code:
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\EventSounds\Sounds\SMS]
    "Sound"="C:\Data\Users\Public\Ringtones\AppleSucks.mp3


    That would set a ringtone named "AppleSucks" in your Ringtone folder as your SMS tone.
