Menu, 8, 3 then 1, 2, and 3

Yes, No, and Wake up need to be trained before you can use voice dial.

Be a little more specific if there is anything else that I am missing

I have trained the three listed commands but still cannot figure out how to bring up the advanced voice command prompt.
I understand that there are advanced menu options, but all I get is "....name please....." and I can not use any of the menu commands at that prompt.

I had proposed the very same question in the Telus Mobility forum, when the 8900 first came out. My understanding is, that you need a car kit for the advanced menus too work.

I have an 8600. I can't get "wakeup" to work but, when it says "Main Menu" (I have mine set to expert prompt so that is all it says), I can say a voice tag or "Dial" and then I can say numbers. "Clear" to delete the last number. Two "clears" and it asks if I want to clear the whole number. "Verify" and it repeats what it has so far. I also have it set so it just beeps as I say each number. If it double beeps, that means it didn't get a match. Instead of "dial". I can say "phonebook" and it will sequence through the voice tags until I say "yes" at which point it will dial the number associated with that voice tag.
I also trained all the words above, the numbers, "cancel", "Call" (=dial the number I spoke)
"No" will stop the dialing process.
That's all I can think of now.
Hope this helps.

it seems that the voice options are not avalible to me on this 8900.
the only prompt I can get is " name please"
is there a setting that I can change to get the advanced vr options or maybe a software upgrade?
this is the only dissapointment with an otherwise great phone.
Any help will be great
thanks

I can't help with how to change the prompt level.
Have you tried saying "dial" when it asks for a name? After all, we don't all have to do everything our telephones tell us to do.
