From my experience, the on-map icon remains unchanged.

I've seen that monster on an HTC Wildfire S. The one on my sig is what is visible on Moto Defy +.

I'm certain that the Monster mood, depends on the type of phone that is used.

And the Monster does not appear the same way, on the Live Map. It shows up as the Default Pink Wazer on the Live Map, even if the Wazer has applied the Monster mood.

That is not where you enable ASR. Unfortunately, ASR is not officially supported outside the USA at the moment, however there are ways to enable it. You can either edit your preferences file directly, I believe, or you can navigate to ##@asr to enable/disable it anywhere in the world.

So I'm looking in preferences in the Waze directory on the SD Card now, but I can't spot the option yet. Do you know what the line is I'm looking for please? or what I should add to the file?

Cheers.

Edit: Ah brilliant crazycaveman, I just realised that you meant literally use Navigate to that string. The app is just restarting to enable the feature now. Thank you! :)

The process:

I selected Navigate, typed in ##@asr and hit enter
Restarted Waze when prompted
Selected Settings, then Voice Commands, and clicked Enable
Then back on the map screen I swiped the screen for the voice prompt to appear
I said the secret word and it asked me to say OK (albeit that wasn't obvious)
I said OK and Waze told me I was now a Monster :D

Sorted! Cheers!!! :D

At every noise or touch ASR opens the voice prompt now though, seeming a bit eager ;)
WHAT IS THE SECRET WORD???? PLEASE!!! ??? !!!

I dont use an SD card with my iPhone 4s. How else can I find it?

you can set up the default voice in preferences (Samantha), after that, it is working.
Where do you exactely set up the voice?

My level guidance got only "none" and "minimal". The "full" dissapear when I activate the TTS.
And I got the same issue than pepsodent.
