Text to speech - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

On my s5 with text to speech on when I got a text message from a favorite contact the phone would play the incoming message sound and anounce who the text was from. I have tried everything to get it to work to no avail any suggestions I am completely stock.

Voice command notification of incoming text messages

I have a samsung saga with windows mobile 6.1 and voice command version 1.6.20961. my phone will alert me via voice of upcoming events,appointments, and incoming phone calls. is there any app that will notify me of incoming text messages? currently if i receive a call from my mother for example, i get a voice that says "incoming call from mother". how can i get this same thing for my text messaging? when i text comes in from my mother i would like it to alert me the same way as my incoming phone calls. example...."incoming message from *****". is there an app that does this?
thank you
Hi, I can't think of any, but there is rather silly but working idea is that you either record your voice via notes, or downloading a sound, and under sounds and notifications in the settings folder, navigate to the notifications tab and select Messaging: New text message, and select your sound file, which is either Recording for the recorded notes file or your respective sound file. For the sound file, place it in my documents. This solution is only for all text messages and not for respective text messages from your contacts.
Hope I Have Helped!

Change Colour of Messages

Has anyone figured out how to change the colour of the messages in the inbox?
It irritates me that outgoing and incoming texts are the same colour.
How do I change this?
I have an omnia 7.
I didn't find any way to distinguish the incoming and outgoing text. They are bound together with the accentcolour.

Ringtone Manager

Hello all
Looking for an option/app to make one contact's ringtone ringtone (tone) at all times at a certain vol level.
Has anyone heard of such app?
Reasoning is I am a member of the volunteer fire department and they recently made it available to receive tones/pages via txt messages. And I want to make that contact tone even if my phone is set to vibration.
Thanks in advance

I found an app that kinda does what I am looking for:
Android Market - Ring Loud Contacts
Only problem is that is only appears to work for voice calls, not SMS messages.

Text message ring tones

Is there a way I can assign a specific ring tone to people that txt me?
I have different ring tones set up for actual calls, but for text message they all have the same tone. Is there an app I have to get? or am I just screwed?
Thanks in advance.
Probably have to use a market sms app and set rings for contacts that way. Pretty sure gosms let's you customize individual contacts

GoSMS Pro and Handcent both allow you to do that, I'm guessing the other market SMS apps will too.

When receiving a text, default notification sound plays instead of selected text tone

I've had this problem before on Jellybean ROMs. After installing a new ROM I select a text tone and it plays when I get a text, but then after a random amount of time it starts to play the default notification sound when I get a text instead of my still selected text tone. When I go to see which tone is selected, without clicking in to choose my tone it says "Default ringtone (my_ringtone)". (my_ringtone=My current ringtone that is used when people call me, which plays normally.) Then when I click in, it shows my actual selected message tone selected. I'm running v1.300 Beanstalk. Has anyone had a problem like this before?
Apparently I can't post links until I have 10 posts. Pics of what I described are in the form of 2 png's attached to this post. (Very appropriately named if I say so myself)
Set it within the actual messaging app and through the email client you use. Should stick then.

Thanks, but these are the actual settings within the stock messaging app. In the regular sound settings there is no option for text tone. Only one for notification sound.
