Announcing calls - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Yes I searched! Every place! Every time I receive a call my phone it verbally "announces" it, contact name or number. I've checked driving mode, checked it and uh-checked it. Checked text to speech, talk back. Nothing is out of order. It started out of the blue about 2 weeks ago, and for the life of me I can't figure it out Running 4.1.2.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!

So talk back is off and driving mode is off and still having problems. I would just make sure everything is backed up and factory reset.

That was my next step, figured I'd ask here B4 doing that...

I flash so often and the occasional bad flash occurs. Can't be scared of starting from scratch because it will happen.

Can't receive phone calls

Last night I flashed paragon RC6 and it seems to be a really sweet rom but now I can't receive incoming phone calls I can make them though when I get a call it starts to ring then I lose all bars. Im still kind of new at this so I am not sure if I should just reflash the rom or if there was a easy fix for this some help with this would be great. thanks

Sounds like a bad flash. Did you flash from stock or you flash over the top of a different rom? I would reflash do not restore system data.

Guess I will just reflash it when I get home 2 nite And keep my fingers crossed that it doesn't happen again because I really like this rom

Don't restore system settings if you did previously. That seems to be a common culprit for the problem.

Anybody else's g2x refuse to hang up phone calls?

My phone has been ok compared to some of the reports I've seen, but I've been having issue ending calls. On about 50% of my calls, when I press the end button, nothing happens. I have to wait til the other person hangs up, or I kill all tasks with a task manager. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Yup this happens with the majority of my calls as well.

What ROM are you guys running?
That doesn't happen to me but what does happens is when I want to listen to my voice mail and I enter my pin number it says its not valid even though that I carefully enter the numbers.

I'm running the rooted stock rom.
Sent from my G2x using XDA Premium App
That has happened to me only once. I wrote it off as yet another example of the creeping memory corruption that afflicts this phone after it has been up for day or two. (I am running the stock ROM, unrooted.)
Running Faux's AOSP Nexus Rom and yes it happens to me as well, has happened on other ROM's as well though..
Happens to me many times, my phone is running on EB Froyo 1.0.4
I'm rooted running stock

It happens to me right after I reboot too. So that doesn't fix it.

That's interesting. I'm on rooted stock as well.
Happens to me every day and I'm not rooted.
Well, just like everything else, we're going to have to wait and hope that gingerbread fixes it.

Whenever it gets here
Wow this totally happens to me ...on every call!
I didn't think it was worth making a thread about it but now that I know its not just me... it seems every time I have to hit the end call/ stop button several times before it hangs up. Wasn't a deal breaker for me but it is annoying. I am running stock rom and rooted
"If Satan lived in heaven he'd be me... "
So I noticed that when you end a call there is a small zooming out animation. I was curious if the animation could be locking up the call. I turned off all animations and I haven't had a call hang in a couple of days. I encourage anyone who is having this issue to try it.

[Q] Unable to receive picture messages but can send?

So for the past few days I've been unable to receive any media messages....photo or video, but can send just fine. I've done a bit of searching and can't find much info. Has anyone experienced this and and come up with a possible fix?
Thank you

What ROM are you running? It probably has something to do with your apn configuration.
Sent from my MB865 using XDA
No ROM, just rooted...using GOsms...all 4 APN settings are configured in settings.

This actually began happening a couple days before switching to atrix 2 from atrix 4g and seemingly carries over to my atrix 2.
Sent from my MB865 using xda premium
I've been having the same problem. My daughters LG Thrill is doing the same. I did talk to AT&T and they wanted me to do a full factory reset. I haven't done that yet, not sure I want too. Just got my phone setup just the way I like it.
I tried a factory reset 4 hours and still nothing

No sound or voice from the phone

Hello all. Has any one lost voice, and sound from their phone? Every thing else works, including playing music, Pandora music, and system sounds. But when I go to use the phone I cannot hear the person on three other end, and they cannot hear me. Any help be appreciated.

Maybe a local network problem...???
What's the last major thing u did to ur phone before this started happening ?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I777 using xda premium
I charged the phone. The system ROM is practically full. I need to learn how to purge the System Rom, to see if that helps.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA
It's not the network, I checked that last night.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA
Ok, I found the issue. Using Titanium Backup, I removed some not needed system files, and apps. Everything is back to normal.

There's gmail the service and gmail the app, you didn't specify
You might want to remove and re-add your Google account in settings. Have you been "dirty flashing" when moving between AOKP and CM10? Also, what version of gapps are you running?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
The app....No dirty flashes wipe wipe wipe...I'll try removing and resyncing. The newest Gapps

You might want to go into your gmail account settings and make sure that your IMAP settings are right as well. If Auto-Expunge is off it might do something similar

I have this same issue intermittently. I found d that if I deleted them b4 marking them as read (and sometimes even if I did mark them as read) then they would come back. I fix it by going into the Gmail app, selecting the search option, typing in "in:unread" (minus the quotes) and hit search. It will do its thing and come back with all the unread emails. From there, select them, mark them as read, and delete them again. Hopefully this will work for you as it has for me.

I would doublecheck and make sure that you don't have it sent to archive versus delete

No problem man. Glad ya got it sorted out. That exact problem had me racking my brain for a week or so. Happy I could keep you from torturing yourself over it for the next few days. Just be sure to remember that search phrase because, chances are, you'll need it again sometime.
