[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] dclifford:
Hello,

I am about to go crazy as I cannot figure out how to turn these voice notifications off. When I open a webpage it says something like "page is loading" and then "page loaded". It also does it when selecting a picture to attach to a text. It says "the checkbox is currently selected. "Can somebody please guide me how to turn this off? I have went through the Options again and again and cannot find it.

Thanks

Did you look in accessibility in settings?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipq88:
Any app that uses accessibility causes this. (ex. Liteflow, tasker, floating notifications) it's a Samsung issue and not the app. Supposedly Samsung was working on a fix but I call bs. You can get rid of the voice by using titanium backup to freeze google text-to-speech and Samsung text-to-speech. But there still some more problems it causes like when playing a video the notification bar won't go away unless you rotate the screen, and the gallery when you are looking at an image, all the thumbnails won't go away.

Keep the files mentioned in my quote.

However, delete /system/app/Talkback.apk

Or freeze it. But that is the service that causes all that random speaking. Keep the other two files and you won't have any issues.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipq88:
It's not that simple.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Yes it is. I use light flow and only needed to delete the apk I listed. If you then go to accessibility you will see that talkback is not available and it asks you to download from the market. Which obviously you click cancel.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] macaumen:
I tried disabling Talkback and renaming talkback.apk but none works. Is it necessary to physically delete it?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Shouldn't have to. I'm using light flow right now. Don't have talkback but have everything else and not having any issues.. btw are you rebooting after doing this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] macaumen:
Yes, I reboot. I use Notify Me.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipq88:
Like I said it's not that simple. One question, are you running an aosp rom?

Sent from Flip's Galaxy S4
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
Nope. Running my own ROM which is touchwiz based. And like I said before, I have no issues and both those apk files are still there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipq88:
So you're telling me that you have liteflow enabled under accessibility, and when you use the stock browser you don't hear the voice calling out the actions? I doubt that man, there's a huge thread about this issue on samsung's developer forums where all the developers of liteflow, and the other apps are trying to get samsung to fix it.

Sent from Flip's Galaxy S4
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] elesbb:
I don't use the stock browser but I just installed it again and you are right that does announce everything. However the stock launcher does not.

Meaning, I should be able to edit the browser and completely remove this.

And I was in contact with the developer of light flow as I was liking his accessibility service to detect when apps are entered and was going to use this in my own app but after he showed me all the emails and communication with Samsung about the issue, I opted for another method.

I am pretty confident I can remove this from the stock launcher though.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] flipq88:
If I remember correctly the stock launcher only announces when you open and close a folder, not 100% sure as I never use the stock launcher

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] griffog:
I upgraded to WM2003SE a while back and at the time had an Orange SIM in my XDAII and my 02 SIM in my E200 Smartphone. The extended ROM I used was Orange specific and contained all the necessary GPRS Configs etc

Anyways, I've now got a C500 with my Orange SIM in it and so the 02 Sim is back in my XDAII and I'm looking for a good External Rom dump that contains the UK 02 GPRS/WAP/MMS Configs etc and is compatible with WM2003SE.

Can anyone point me in the direction of one, I have looked and tried one or two but none have the correct configs for 02's GPRS service (Pay monthly not PAYG).

TIA
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SiliconS:
Did you get anywhere with this, Darren? I'm just wondering whether to upgrade my O2 XDAII to WM2003SE but the lack of dedicated O2 Ext.rom files (as far as I can tell) is putting me off.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] griffog:
I didn't but don't let that stop you, the SE upgrade is well worth it. I just removed all the O2 specific rubbish from the Ext ROM and it's fine.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SiliconS:
Thanks for the reply.

I'd love to upgrade but without the O2 auto-config software in the ExtROM I wouldn't have a clue where to start configuring all the network, SMS, MMS etc settings for O2 pay monthly. Do you know of a guide or something somewhere?

Secondly, I searched earlier to try and find out which was the best ROM to use for those of us in the UK, but there didn't seem to be a definitive answer. Would you mind telling me which ROM you used and where you got it from if you're happy with it? I need Bluetooth headset, BT GPS, BT ActiveSync, speakerphone to work perfectly to consider upgrading. Currently my XDAII works like a charm with ROM 1.72 but some people seem to have had trouble with the SE upgrade and Bluetooth.

Thanks a bunch in advance.
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] griffog:
I use all those BT functions alos, I used the 2.02 ROM available at the beginning of this thread.

I've left the auto config files in the Ext ROM so there is no need to manually configure anything. I have had zero issues with it since the upgrade :) I'm happy to upload my Ext ROM to an FTP if you want it?

The only critical noe I found was to remove the 'TPDisable' entry in the Ext ROM when performing the upgrade as you receive a lot of 'This isn't designed for WM2003SE' messages and with TPDisable enbled you can't click OK!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SiliconS:
Forgive me if I'm being a bit fick, but I can't see where you mean. Have you a ROM available through your pocketgpsworld.com website? Or is there only one 2.02 ROM available and I can download it from this site's FTP? I thought the 2.02 ROM was the Chinese one.

I didn't know it was possible to upgrade the OS ROM without touching the ExtROM. I'm not a noob with the XDAII, but I've found the myriad threads and discussions on the question of 2003SE upgrades very confusing! :) Since there seems to be no obvious single solution I haven't known where to start.

If you have a working ExtROM for the XDAII on O2 UK and you wouldn't mind uploading it somewhere (this site?) I'd be very grateful. If you wouldn't mind pointing me to the main OS ROM image that you used as well then that'd be groovy too.

I guess that's achieved by editing the config file in the ExtROM once it's all installed after an upgrade?
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] griffog:
Sorry, I thought this was the original WM2003SE thread! The download I used is at the beginning of this thread.

It's a while since I upgraded mine, I had thought the Ext ROM remained intact but reading the thread instructions apparently not. Sorry I can't help more but as I say it's some months sisnce I did it!
[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] SiliconS:
Aaah. OK. Thanks again, but I think I'll leave it in that case. I don't yet feel brave enough to start messing about with home-cooked ExtROMs if you don't have yours handy. It was good of you to offer though.

Is there an app out there that will trace, map, log or time a reboot? Something that will show me exactly what is going on during boot process.

[General Questions and Answers] Dexter_prog:
I'm looking for something like this for Android but I can't find anything: https://itunes.apple.com/app/remarks-write-notes-annotate/id496413403?mt=8
[General Questions and Answers] Oldtymehockey:
I looked at some of the similar threads but they are old and devices change so rapidly so I am starting a new one.

I am looking for some thoughts, opinions, etc on a new device. I have to buy my device on Craigslist, eBay or somewhere because I have an old Verizon plan with unlimited data and can't upgrade without losing my plan and paying their upgrade fee.

I have been using a Toro Nexus on Verizon for about a year. I have been running CM10 and making updates as they are released. Recently my phone took a header out of my truck and now the screen is cracked. So, it is probably time to get something more up to date.

A couple things I am looking at evaluating are:

ROMS and development love available for devices. Which ones get the most love?

If I get something unlocked as in straight from Google like the Maguro would I be able to get a radio which works on Verizon?

Cost is a consideraton as well. For example I like the price of the S3 right now compared to the S4 on CL.

Any thoughts, opinions, facts, guidance, etc would be awesome!
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
the Galaxy nexus is a great phone it saddens me to see that you would like another phone. but im not you so lets get start with phone shopping shall we?

Google

I can see that you like all the rom and development for devices i happy for that!, most of the time you would want one of googles flagship phones that is plain ol stock android (nexus s, galaxy nexus, nexus 4 etc..) googles is so great to us since its stock android its much easyer to flash roms and put other goodies on our phones! i have heard the nexus 4 is one of the best phones around right now (not to mention the new white nexus 4 thats coming out soon with Android 4.3!) so if its on your provider i would recomend that from google!

Samsung

So from what you said you want a phone around the price of a S3, from that right there i would recomend a S3! Samsung does a great job with their phones its not the same stock android like the galaxy nexus they have spiced android up to what they call touchwiz which is a very smooth version for their launchers. a S2 might sound old but even that would be a great phone (i dont know about the specs galaxy neuxs might be a little newer so S3 might be better to get). rooting should be very simple all i had to do for my S2 was to flash a pda file from odin so its again easy to be able to join in on all the development. i think i have heard that the S3 (and maby S2) is getting alot of Goodies from the S4.

LG

i have only had some LG phones and in the past they werent so good but their newest flagship the Optimus G Pro is sposed to be aso good as the HTC one and S4 i dont think LG has their own type of launcher such as samsungs touchwiz, htcs Sense, or motorolas motor blur. so that probably means stock android and pretty easy to root and flash stuff.

HTC

the HTC dream was the first android phone, all of their phones are amazing i have had many of their devices, sense is a very smooth, sense 4.0 and up is sposed to be great. the One and its new blinkfeed feature i have heard can get old within a month or two so im not sure. about rooting with htc phones can be a pain. its different between each phone my droid incredible i had to unlock the bootloader turn s-on off downgrade just to be able to get root and cwm and its all a big pain, htc just dosent want us to screw with it maby. for my htc inspire 4g i had to just only unlock the bootloader and could flash a root from there but still was a pain, so if you can deal with some of the fears of easily bricking your phone you can try these phones!

there are alot of (im just going to call them third party but they arent really) third party phones such as huawei, ZTE, kyocera that some are deff better phones from these people that are better than the galaxy nexus just ask if you would like me to explain them!
[General Questions and Answers] Oldtymehockey:
Thank you for all the info. Much appreciated. The Galaxy Nexus (Toro) is a wonderful phone. I believe it is the longest running in my pocket. It broke my heart when it took a swan dive out of my truck Sunday. I would absolutely go with another of these. The question on that topic is could a guy get the Maguro to work on Verizon's CDMA network? I don't know that much about the hardware but I'd LOVE to try Ubuntu Touch.

There is a local guy who has an S3 advertised on CL for $175. I'd have to evaluate that guy first though. Would I be as happy with the development on the S3 as I have been on the Toro?
[General Questions and Answers] Trozzul:
i googled a way for it to work on verizon, dosent look like there is any way unless its unlocked. as for the s3 im sure you will be happy with all the development as much as the toro i have seen the s4 at some networks for $149 with a 2yr.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
Ever since sometime yesterday or something. My phone has been steadily discharging whilst plugged in.

I charged my phone to full yesterday and noticed that it was charging a bit slowly.. but eventually it got there.

Then I unplugged it and plugged in a really low battery (4%) to charge it to full overnight (I have 2 batteries)

I woke up to the phone at 26% after an entire night of charging (about 8 hours).

I thought that the battery must be dead. It's a cheap one from Ebay but it has the official sticker on it, but it's a bit creased so it looks like it could be a cheaper one with a fake sticker on it. It always used to last about 20% less than the original one I got with the phone anyway. But that isn't the point.

I thought it must be dead. But I charged it a little before work and nope, it just kept dying. So I started worrying if the charger had died.

Then I just swapped the battery out and decided to use the fully charged one.

After about a days use I went to plug it in and it ALSO started discharging whilst being plugged in.

In fact they seem to discharge FASTER if plugged in.

I immediately thought that the little Wall Socket to USB Adapter had just blown. So I unplugged it and just plugged the phone in via my PC's USB 2.0 Port.. Same thing.. it sits on the same Percentage (%) and then gradually (if I use it at all) it starts to discharge.

It's charging so slowly that if I use it at the same time it'll die. When before I could even have a Skype call and keep it plugged in and it would overcharge through the amount of power I was using.

Does anyone have any ideas? It can't be the battery because both of them are dying no matter one, and they can't have both died. It might not be the little USB charger (although it no longer gets hot like it used to) because if I plug the phone straight into a USB port on my PC (I know the mW is lower but it should still prove if the charger is dead or not) then it still discharges.

Any ideas? I mean... it looks like somehow the USB port is no longer taking a charge? Without my phone I am a dead man.. it will totally mess up my work and everything...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Have you used a different cable? You said you plugged it into your PC USB port but you didn't say with which cable.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
I don't have another cable :/ as it's a proprietary one... :( I can't just use some normal micro USB..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
9/10 it's the cable that's the fault.

It's not proprietary. I walked into a shop and said "2 micro USB cables please" and they both work better. Also my HTC and blackberry micro USB cables both work better. Try another cable. Borrow one if you have to
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
I have a micro USB cable.. it's for my HDD and it doesn't fit. It's a little bit too big. The last HDD I had too was the same, just a bit too big. Maybe it's not proprietary but I'm pretty sure it's smaller than the traditional Micro USB.

Also, I tried doing a file copy from the phone to my PC and back and forth. The speed is totally fine, really fast.

So could it still really be the phone? I'm a pessimist and I don't see why the cable would just suddenly die... I've already had my phone replaced on one of the 'sudden death' issues like everyone else. I wouldn't be surprised if there's yet another hardware fault...

At the moment it's off, and charging from the wall.

EDIT: Maybe it's a Mini-USB not a Micro.. in that case I have 1 Micro USB. Still I think my phone just died somehow overnight................. again.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
no, your phone uses a traditional micro USB. and data speed is not really connected to charging speed
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
New cord seems to have fixed it. 'Hama' brand (Finnish) triple shielded, with some gold plated connectors. Looks a lot higher quality than the traditional Samsung one. (Unshielded, no gold plating)

Also it's a bit longer, which I dunno if that will affect the rate of current. I know that shorter is better. It's 1.8m vs the older 1m.

Seems to be charging properly now, still a bit slow (phone is off) but I suppose that could just be the battery getting used to actually receiving a proper current finally.

Christ and I almost went and just bought an iPhone...

If in the end it was just the cord then €12.95 bought me peace of mind.

EDIT: Scratch that

It won't charge if the phone is on at the same time... it just sits at the same level of power. But if I use it, yeah it starts to discharge.

So basically it's lost the ability to charge whilst being used, and on top of that it did charge pretty slowly when turned off, but at least it did.

Looks like I'm going to have to sort out a way to fix it, then maybe sell it and get something else. I can't handle a phone that's such a disappointment.

The Galaxy S2 was a bit of a let down, to RMAs to Samsung now...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Glebun:
sounds like something Monster cables would sell
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leijonasisu:
Shame that it doesn't seem to have done the trick.

I'm really confused now. The battery I got off the net doesn't seem to be charging really at all, but ever so slowly when the phone is off.

The other battery, my normal OEM one charged sorta slowly but kinda normally I guess..

Really don't know what on earth is going on. It's going to be a total pain to get this thing repaired a second time, and it's been rooted and flashed multiple times. Plus it has the new bootloader on it that you can't possibly trick that it's been rooted.. (was installed after a fix on warranty)

I've got the same issue. At first i thought it was the custom ROM acting up. But even after unrooting it and going back to the stock firmware its still the same. The only way i can charge my phone is by switching it off nd plugging it in. Cuz no matter what i try, if the phone is switched on,the battery still drains. Couple of my friends had the same issue too.They ended up buying new phones. Guess this is a standard fault with all Samsung phones. :( If anyone's got a fix,do pass it on.:)

S3 charging problem

I´m having the same problem. I flashed my S3 i9300 to a cianogenmod 11 ROM. It's a relief to know it's not the ROM. The technical service prom the phone companies here really suck, so i'm taking my S3 to a third party cellphone technician and tell you if he solved my problem.
