Help Issues with new update

basketball123 · Dec 17, 2012

I just installed the new software update last night and now my phone talks to me even when its one silent.

When I swipe from page to page it says (on max volume) "Work space 3 of 7," "workspace 4 of 7," ect.

Please help.

I just installed the new software update last night and now my phone talks to me when swiping from page to page on the home screen. When I swipe from page to page it says "Work space 3 of 7," "work space 4 of 7," ect. I've figured out that this is connected to the multimedia volume, so when you turn the multimedia volume off you can't hear it. However, this is only a short term solution as I would like to be able to turn the media volume back on at some point.

Does anyone know how to just make the phone not tell you which work page you are on?

Please help. Thank you.

It's sometimes caused by Driving Mode or Lightflow.

I don't know where to find driving mode anymore. It used to be at the top when you swiped down, but it isn't there after the update. Do you know where it is?

How can it be caused by lightflow?

I think it's actually Talk Back mode. Settings -> Accessibility -> Talkback

It's to help people that are visually impaired, the phone tells you what you are doing/seeing

Talkback is what is doing it but that can be envoked by Driving mode

Also Light Flow / Tasker applications add themselves in accessibility and also cause Talkback to "Switch on"

Do you have lightflow installed? If so its because of that, its a bug.

It's not talk-back. When I was looking around I turned that on and off a few times. Its definately off and my phone only tells me this one thing. It doesn't read everything to me like it does when talk-back is on.

If talk-back is off, could it be light flow?

If it is caused by lightflow, how do I solve the problem?

jdk2 · Dec 17, 2012

Uninstall Lightflow, reboot your phone and see if it solves the problem.

That solved it. When light flow is uninstalled I don't have the issues.

Is there another ap that I can instal to change the frequency and colors of the notification LED?

jdk2 · Dec 17, 2012

You can reinstall Lightflow but you'll need to change a setting or two. I just don't know what settings have to be changed to make it work properly. Sorry.

basketball123 · Dec 17, 2012

Thanks jdk2. You've been really helpful.

If anyone knows what settings would need to be changed in Lightflow, I would appriciate the help. Thanks!

For anyone else having this problem, I disabled the Google TTS and Samsung TTS (under Settings -> Applications Manager -> All) and that seems to have worked.

Will this have any negative effects on any other aspect of the phone? Other than, I'm assuming that driving mode and talk back won't work.

SUroot · Dec 17, 2012

Probably not.... Unless you use briefing alarm...

Also check your drop down and make sure Driving Mode is not active.

Guys, just a quick heads-up that I merged a smaller (two post) thread into here with you.

Best of luck working out the update issues.

Cheers!
