Hello guys...
I am using with satisfaction Noled app and I gave a try to the audio alert yesterday, an option I never used. It works, in fact when I receive an email or a phone call, a digital voice alerts me (about the incoming call telling the name of the caller for instance). Now I want to turn off the option but it does not work: even if I uninstall Noled, the alert is always present and it is a little bit annoying.
Do you know if there is a trick or a system option I can fix inside the phone? For sure it is a bug of the app which changed something somewhere I don't know...
thx to all
That's not Noled - that sounds like driving mode in the voice input settings. (in text to speech)
You are partially right. Noled entered in conflict with my car mode because I did not noticed that it turned on alone (don't ask me how, I never used this option). Plus they started to play each other when getting a notification of SMS out call...so everything was messed up...I uninstalled noled, reinstalled it and turned off car mode. Now it seems to work. Maybe it happened when I changed my custom ROM...many times happens something with Android when you flash even if you follow exactly the proper procedures...
Thx anyway, mate.

For some reason my wife doesn't like my headboard buzzing & chiming all night long whenever I receive an E-mail. As I only have a cell & no land line I need my phone to ring during the night if I get a call, but want to mute everything else. For now I disabled E-mail notifications, but that's a pain to turn on and off ever morning/night.
On my old Windows Mobile AT&T Fuze I just set Active Sync to only sync during the daytime, so that effectively muted it at night.
Anybody have any thoughts?
I'm interested in this too. Actually it'd be nice to turn everything but ringtone and email off for me, as I get work emails overnight while I'm on call that need to wake me up. But gmail, facebook, google talk, etc - it'd be nice if there was a mass silencer for those.
Turn off data at night maybe? Might be some app to turn off data during dif times?
Go to the market place and search for an app called "Setting Profiles Full" by "probeez". This type of app is exactly why I did not go with the iPhone. It will do exactly what you want, I'm using it for that and more.

I downloaded the light version and its not working for me. I set it so at a specified time it is to turn on a profile and its not even doing that. Any advice?
Profile App / Widget pro is working for me. The only part that would be a problem would be keeping emails notification while silencing messages. Maybe a 3rd party email app would do it.

Title says it all, but it's still vague as hell. Vibrate problems on ringing/notification? Haptic feedback in general? Elaboration is your friend.
Staying on post, I didn't notice any vibration issues while I had it turned on, but its since been turned off to conserve battery life.
I have this problem all the time, Im vague for everything without realizing it. I meant vibrate for notifications. I tried turning it on in settings but nothing.
If you want it to vibrate for your text messages you must go into the settings in the messaging app and turn it on as well as in the global settings. Same for email i believe.
Well, that did it. thank you very much.
thx that helps me too.
I just want to chime in on this situation and say that I had the same problem on my completely stock evo shift. One moment it worked perfectly and the next it didn't. After several attempts at checking settings and hard/soft resetting, come to find out it was a faulty motor in mine that worked when it wanted to. Had my phone replaced at the sprint store after a supposed cleaning fixed it and then failed again after 3 vibrating notifications. Just another possible resolution/observation.

Actually I have the opposite problem, I cannot disable notifications vibration ( for messages ) on MIUI ... but I found out this was caused by the apps settings ( Fb messanger / Wechat / What'sup )
100% stock verizon s3. not rooted , & barley any thing on it.

im confused. the ONLY thing that i did do today was enable Driving mode to test it out, the i turned it off. (via the notification area, as well as enabled then disabled it via the settings menu...)
anyone have any ideas WTF is going on?> also a reboot did not fix it.
My Nexus 7 did the same thing to, but it stopped on its own

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.

Folks,
Any help or thoughts would be much appreciated.
Running stock 4.4.2, rooted, Franco Kernel, w/ Xposed ( GravityBox ) and Tasker
Has anyone else had problems with a single button wired headset intermittently launching a classic looking voice dialer versus the new voice search stuff when using the headset's button?
I basically have a Tasker profile that unlocks and wakes my phone after I plug in my headset. This all works fine.
Problem is, when trying to actually use the headset to call someone, this classic looking (and I say that because it's a black background with white text, nothing fancy) voice dialer comes up but no matter what, can not make out what I am asking it to do.
If I hit the back button and try the headset button again, it will then sometimes go to the new voice search and work completely as expected. Not every time. Sometimes the classic dialer wants to hang around for 2 or 3 attempts.
Anyone seen this before? I was hoping to find a way to just disable this 'classic' voice dialer because I'm essentially trying to have my phone be more hands free if the headset is plugged in and know the new voice search works just fine.
Thanks,

Could you try starting your device in safe mode and not running any apps you've installed to test if one of them is causing the problem? If you don't experience the problem while in safe mode that's a good indication that an app you've installed is the source of your issue.
I'd appreciate it if you could let me know how your safe mode test went after you get a chance to give it a try.

Joannn,
Thanks for the thoughts.
I tested safe mode and the classic voice dialer does not come up at all so it definitely has to be some sort of app or weird way my system is calling something when using the headset in normal mode.
I tried the following with no success in normal mode:
1) Disabled Xposed and all modules - rebooted - no change
2) Disabled tasker and tested with just plugging in the headset and testing the button - no change
3) Switched from Nova launcher back to stock launcher - no change
4) Uninstalled a headset button control app - no change
So, I'm not sure why the phone randomly thinks this old dialer is the correct one to launch, nor do I have any idea where it is coming from. It doesn't appear to be a separate app and even when I look through the system apks, I see nothing that looks like it references this classic voice dialer. Not sure what's triggering it.

thats not a google app. its especially obvious since "dialler" is spelled wrong. thats a third party app.

Holy hell, Simms, I did NOT even notice that.
Marvelous. Now to find out what app installed this crap...

instead of looking in your app drawer, since apps dont always get put there, open the phones main settings, apps, and look there.

I've got to assume it's something related to Tasker or the Secure Settings plugin for it. I uninstalled every single app I could think of that may have had the ability to make any calls of any nature, and in Settings>Apps I don't see the Voice Dialler at all, even before I started uninstalling things.
Without Tasker being used, I haven't seen the bad dialer come back again.
Was really only using tasker to get around the fact that the headset button is ignored if the phone is pin locked. Guess I'll try and find another way around it.
Thanks for your help,

Okay, I'm going to take that back.
It's got to be stock somehow. I read some other posts and a quick google image search shows other people with the same dialer, especially when using bluetooth headsets from the lockscreen. I've pretty much removed everything from my phone aside from the stock apps. In the varying posts I've seen, the spelling is incorrect in 50% of them, and I don't know maybe if that has something to do with the language settings of the phone.
I also tested a bluetooth headset that had never been paired with my phone before and when the phone is locked, I get the odd dialer, when it's unlocked, I get the proper google voice search.
My next step would be to completely wipe and reinstall. But, I think I'm going to keep trying to figure this out before going to that length.

the spelling incorrect is not google. and if it was google, it would be spelled incorrect for all, not 50% of the people. the next question is do you have a mod for your lockscreen? whatever it is, it is not googles app that you screenshoted. and you wrote that in safemode, it didnt appear. which also indicates that its a 3rd party app.

Simms,
Figured out the 'spelling mistake'. Since I'm Canadian, I was running my phone in English (UK) versus English (US). When I changed it back to English (US), now Dialer is spelled correctly.
As for lockscreen mods, I do have GravityBox running with some Lockscreen tweaks, but in my previous testing, I totally shutdown Xposed. That's all I've got. Had the same problem with it totally disabled.
Just came across this post on Android Police with a lot of comments with the exact same problem I'm having. Seems even with using Tasker and Secure Settings to disable Pin lock, turn off keyguard, wake the device and take it to the homescreen, the phone still thinks the screen is 'off' and brings up the old dialer.

so it seams then that you either need to update your google search or you are using a samsung device and not a nexus 5.
Anyone else have this issue? When receiving an SMS message, I will get the pop up notification and sound, but then the notification will disappear as if it has been dismissed. The message will still be unread in the Messaging app, but there will be no notification either on the phone or on my Android Wear device. Strange.
Same here. Anybody find a fix? Driving me crazy
There's an option in settings to check notification access.. probably you can review the applications there or check the notification settings for messages app.. Maybe an alternate messages app is overriding it

I haven't found anything amiss in the notification settings.
My hangouts won't notify me like it used to (on Silent, but with LED), and I've been missing text messages/gmail as well. When I turn on the lockscreen voila! all the crap you've missed. I've flipped every setting known to man. Cleared my cache from recovery. In my frustration, it seems like the only thing left is to drop this brick out the window and get something that isn't messed up by the carrier every other firmware.
Nougat sucks for me. I had to download a samsung theme, to replace the crap they did with it. I am honestly surprised that there are so few people complaining.
Strange. I never have issues with Hangouts. It's only the Samsung Messages app that self-dismisses notifications. I've tried just using Google's Android Messages or whatever they are calling it these days and I actually like it better. Unfortunately, I frequently utilize WiFi Calling/SMS and Digits for a second line and the stock Samsung app is the only text messaging I've found app that does both. This T-Mobile integration is the same reason I switched back to Samsung from my Xperia XZ and why my next phone will probably be Samsung again unless theses features ever become usable on an unlocked phone.
Okay, slightly different problem, but weird and perplexing. Running U firmware on an AT&T A. Stock Email app on mobile data only will show a badge notification for new mail, but no notification sound or light flashing. On WIFI everything works as it should. On AT&T firmware it works fine as well either way. Hmm...
