I was driving and I was going from 4g to 3g and it locked up. I switched to airplane mode and my VM notification showed up.
I listened to it, hung up. Switched to airplane mode again and it went away.
Maybe this will help trace the issue... Or not, but sure does beat having to reboot.

Just tested this on my GB install...same thing, notification shows in Airplane mode. Nice find.
I'm going to try not to sound like a smart ass...please don't take it that way.
But you're going to turn off and on airplane mode on the oft chance you have a voicemail?
Why not just use Google Voice? Just curious. I hesitated and resisted for a long time..I just wish I would've switched sooner.
just use google voice for vm easiest way
I don't think this is about what is easier or better. GB has an issue with showing VM notifications. If there's a correlation to it showing up under Airplane mode maybe it will help the dev's troubleshoot why it doesn't show up in other modes by default.

no one has any idea how to turn this off?
its now also reading everything from the XDA app
Go into settings, accessability, and turn off text to speech feature
I think I just figured out, the number one tool to own if you're going to own a Samsung phone is a sense of humor.
I'm sorry OP, but your thread cracks me up and every time I read your post

I LOL some more. I'm giving this **** 5 stars.
I should not have to turn it off. Then is mostly a circumvent and not a solution
Also I am not sure what is so entertaining about the post

Unless you are visually impaired or need total hands free operation Text to Speech should be disabled.

i installed LED flow which needed to have some accessibility options enabled, and after that my voice started too. i never did check the box to turn it on, but it did it on its own.
i uninstalled LED flow as i did not like it, and everything else returned to normal.
When you click a folder on your home screen does it say "The folder is open" and/or "The folder is closed"? If it does it means you have something in accessibility turned on. I use tasker. Some of the features requires tasker accessibility turned on. When I do that I get the annoying text to speech notifications like that. Only way to turn them off is to have nothing all at enabled in accessibility. I dont have to disable tts in language and input, so I can still use google now, eva voice assistant and astrid still reads me my reminders. But I cannot use any tasker task that requires accessibility, without hearing" the folder is open. The folder is closed" etc etc etc.

That's what it was saying to me. It was annoying. Like I said I went in and removed led flow, reset all the accessibility settings and it's silent now.

Turn off driving mode. Or go to setting>text to speech> touch the word driving mode> uncheck what you do not want for S3 to speak

Short version: my default setting is vibrate. But recently my phone has been setting to silent without my doing anything. I'll leave me phone alone for an hour or so and when I unlock it I'll have missed calls and texts because it didn't vibrate, and my sound setting will have been changed to "silent" . This doesn't happen all the time, probably about half the time.
Some notes:
- the physical vibration works, I don't believe it's a hardware issue.
- persistent apps I am using: 1 tap quick bar, covinent eyes, onavo extend.
- no custom roms, not rooted.
- I always set my phone back to vibrate. I did to one experiment where I set my ring tone volume at max to see if it would still set itself to silent. Which it did.
- I also did a test where I left my phone out of my pocket to see if maybe I was accidentally hitting the screen and volume rocker. Still changed on its own without me touching it.
- there are no crash reports or force closes as far as I know, and I don't use app killers.
Rant: I'm very disappointed in HTC. The software on this phone is buggy and jittery. And where the heck is my jelly bean?
I uploaded screens of my software information incase anyone's interested.
Please help me with my mystery. I searched the forums for people with similar problems and haven't really found anything.
Thanks!

its because you have installed onavo extend for sure. same problem here
I get this error http://www.imgur.com/BLPWPKy.png after turning off airplane mode. I'm on cm 10.1 RC2 vzw sgs3
Other background info is I have tasker profile to set airplane mode while at work and if I turn off airplane mode from notification drawer I get this message. I do believe I get this when that profile isn't active as well. What is it and is it bad?

I have the same problem on HTC One S. Message turns up randomly
I am seeing the same issue on my Dinc 4G LTE. I am also using tasker and the random message didn't appear before tasker was enabled.

same. any resolution? it goes away with a fresh install
Does anyone else have this problem or know how to stop it?
The schedule function is off, so it can't be that. I've enabled the exception for alarms within it since this keeps happening, but could be dangerous for some people if it does enable on its own like this.

Yeah I get this too. Looks like it's enforcing the schedule to me, despite it not being enabled. Really annoying

I figured out it was automateit, the app. I had it set to turn the phone down to silent at a certain time of night, but apparently this option enables do not disturb mode on this phone instead of just silencing it. Just poor handling, can't blame the app though, phone is still very new.

I'm having the same problem but its also happening in the middle of the day. I've tried to schedule when its to turn on/off but this has not helped.
"Do not disturb" setting turns on randomly
Same problem. Any advice appreciated. For the moment I've gutted the DND setting by telling the phone to let calls, texts, and emails through when in DND mode.
Are you sure its not some app you have installed on the phone?
JuiceDefender for example does this for me, even when do not disturb is turned off in the main settings.

Thanks. Yes, it's an app, though I don't yet know which one. Restarted in Safe Mode and issue went away.
Do not disturb coming on by its self .
I had the same problem on my Samsung J7 .
What I did to solve that problem was I uninstalled all my apps and reinstalled them one by one and watched which one was giving me problems .....And the app TrackR was my problem now I have no problem with my do not disturb ...The app TrackR seems to have a bug .
Happens w the S8+ too
I have tried and tired to figure this out. I am missing important texts because my DND is turning on in the middle of the day randomly despite turning it off. Any ideas?
I bought a Samsung S8, and immediately started having this problem. It stumped me for a while, until I found this thread. I had installed Tasker and imported the settings from my old phone. It turns out that the action to turn on silent mode was turning on Do Not Disturb instead. The actions that used to say Silent Mode "On" now said "Mode 2". I tested it out and, sure enough, it went to Do Not Disturb. For some reason, "On" no longer appears in the pull down box for silent mode; only "Off" and "Vibrate". For now, I'll switch all the broken actions to say "Vibrate".
Over the past week, I upgraded to 10, July update and then began noticing that the stock android dialer was stuck in dark mode. Really oddly, the favorites, recents, contacts, and voicemail page are in light mode, and the app setting is in light mode, but when I dial any number the display turns to dark mode. I have light mode set as default, except when in battery saver mode, and have toggled the "override force-dark" mode in developer options back and forth, but still the same outcome. I have reverted to the 46.0.301643300 phone app from a newer version, but that did not help. I feel like I am looking in the wrong place for a switch, but can't figure it out. My wife has the same phone and her dialer is in light mode... BTW these are direct from Google phones, not Verizon version, and I am stock rooted with Magisk, no other mods going on...
Any thoughts?
What actually is the dialer app? I froze the google "phone" app, and when I use my other dialer app to dial a number, the actual phone dialer still is functional. How can the phone dial with the dialer app frozen? Which is leading me to ask what actually dials, because this is what is stuck in dark mode. This is more than annoying, as I cannot see this screen during bright daylight. There has to be some way to get back to light mode...
Somebody??
I think the dialer is in the contacts app.

Yes, I believe you are correct, but what is REALLY strange is that all the pages in the Contacts app are in light mode. ONLY the dialer screen (once a call is initiated, either incoming or outgoing) is dark. All other pages of the Contacts or Phone app are light...
Its driving me nuts...
Have you tried reverting then updating the contacts app, or wiping it?
