I think this setting might be buried in the S-Voice settings.

S-voice >> Settings >> Application control

Any other idea?

You have to disable vibration on the phone. Enable sound is ok but do not enable vibration. Set ring tone a little lower and shout "answer" or "reject".

Ok, will try that. But why is the text in notificatin bar gone?

I am also having this issue. Its driving me crazy. On my iphone it was not an issue. But this new note 2 and my new voyager legend its not letting me answer the incoming call with my voice I have to take my hand off the wheel and hit the button to answer. Ive tried going into the svoice settings and doing what you guys recommended as well as disabling the vibrations. Still mothing.

You have to disable vibration on the phone. Only leave sound enabled and it should work.
I was having the same problem until I saw this thread today.

Same here.. It wasn't working and I even tried a factory reset. Lately I saw this thread and now it started working. No vibration should be enabled for this function to work. The popup message had already said this but I mistook it for the silent mode with vibration and kept on trying different ways. But the point as clear from above is, vibration should be fully disabled and the phone shoud be in ring only mode for answer via voice feature to function properly...

Notifiction LED

Anyone found a working app to trigger events for the notification LED?

LightFlow - Lite did not work

To test your LED, LED Disco works quite well (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.coolbeans.leddisco&feature=search_result)
Liteflow works perfect for me
That good I'm going to purchase the full version, as I'm missing Facebook notifications.

You have to activate it in "Settings" - "Eingabehilfe" (I think its called "input" in system section menu beneath date & clock ).
Otherwise it won't work
Turn on Settings > accessibility > Light flow

Just go to settings/accessibility on your phone and disable LiteFlow
LiteFlow will still works but you won't have this annoying voice anymore

Yeah... what does it do to help?
can't seem to get light flow to work either, not even the test.
For anyone getting the voice notification for opening and closing folders, it seems to be a problem with the TouchWiz interface. I changed over to Go Launcher and no longer get the voice. Just went back to Touchiz for a test and the voice is back.
I have the same issue -
I have disabled LightFlow from accesibility - and now there is NO LED light and no nagging voice (while opening/closing the folder)
If i enable the LightFlow from accesibility - LED starts working and so does the nagging voice !!!
So for now we HAVE to use the lightflow with the painfully nagging voice !
Anyone has any solution to the problem ?
I just try with lightflow enabled in accessibility service and there is no nagging voice comming from my phone...
thanks, you guys are right. LightFLow does work. The only thing I didn't get to work right now are the two white LEDs at the bottom. (I could use those with LightFlow on my Defy without BLN-mod)
But that isn't that important as the Notification LED is quite noticable
Solution to "the folder is open"
I found a temporary solution to the nagging voice.
Disable Samsung TTS and Google Text-To-Speech engine.
this will disable text to speech in all apps that use one of these two, so if your using an application that uses one of those, your out of luck.
I tested S voice and it appears to not use any of them.

[Q] Where the heck is the vibration option?

Having an issue with go sms pro which i'm sure some have had before; there is no vibration with notifications.
Now this is being caused because for some odd reason, system vibration is turned off, or so go sms says. There is no option in ANYWHERE to enable vibration in stock TW. I was able to fix this problem with my s3 by downloading a program called audiomanager, and setting it from within there, but as of new versions of this program, there doesn't seem to be an option for it in the free version.
So i come to you in a time of need. How in the world do i enable system vibration?! :crying:
Saw this on the tmobile website. Hope it helps:

If you go into messages>menu>settings>scroll down to notifications setting and make sure vibrate is checked...... The phone will vibrate even when you are in sound mode. I cant figure out how to make it vibrate only in vibrate mode for messages. Hope this helps!!!

I assume you're talking about default messaging app, and it only works for itself. If i want to use another app like go sms, i'd need to uncheck notifications in that little area, also disabling vibration.
There is a master setting that needs to be enabled for it to work in go sms, but it's no where to be found.

Did you check under setting>my device>sound>vibration intensity ?
Gonna revive this old thread for anyone who is interested in this fix.
I've tried everything in this thread and nothing worked. I decided to go to the play store and search "system settings" in hopes that someone might have made an extended settings app for this reason. I came across an app called "Smart Settings". This app allows you to create custom profiles that have an on/off toggle for notification vibration; something current touchwiz versions, if not all android versions lack. All you need to do is create a custom profile with notification vibration set to on, enable, then uninstall. There's no other app or system option that will allow you to toggle the master notification vibration setting, so 3rd party apps like gosms will work flawlessly. Switching between built in vibrate only and sound on profiles do not effect the master system vibration option.
I hope this helps anyone with this issue. It was a pain in the ass to find something that actually worked.

Success! Thanks so much, there was an app I had used ages ago that did the same thing but then they made it pro only. I didn't uninstall but froze through Titanium Backup so it's there when I get flash happy and need to restore the vibrate. Now I won't miss all my damn texts.
Glad this helped at least one person out.

[Q] bypassing Screenlock b on incoming calls

Does anyone know how I can bypass the Screen Lock on a Samsung Galaxy S4 (Rooted stock 4.2.2) when an incoming call is ringing the phone?
I have hd caller ID that has an easy way to answer the phone, but my wife does not know how to open the Screen Lock so she can't answer the phone when I'm busy in the yard, garage, etc.
I've been looking for a quick fix, but I have not come across anything usable.
Thanks all of you for all your help to everyone that asks for it. Your answers often helps many individuals that have the same needs!
Aloha!
I am not sure if I completely understand. Are you saying that you have to unlock your phone to answer an incoming phone call? :/

Yes, the screenlock is still showing the big orange balloon.... I have to swipe the dots, then press answer.
That's weird cause even with screen lock, if there's an incoming call you should only need to swipe to answer or reject.

Are you running any lock screen programs like GoLocker or something similar? Default Android behaviour is to allow you to accept incoming calls without putting in your PIN/Pattern/Password. If you are not running another locker, then open up your dialer, press the menu soft key, and check your "call settings" options. Check the behaviours where you can press the home button to accept calls and see if you can accept calls that way. If not, remove your security code, restart your phone, and set it again. Let us know if any of these work for you.

Screen on when receives a notification

Hi all!
When i'm receiving a notification, I didn't note it because the vibration is very low (with vibration intensity at maximum). For me it would be perfect that if the screen turns on to show that notification. Anyone know any way to do that? Thanks in advance.

Notification every time the keyboard is opened

Does anyone know how to stop the phone from generating a notification sound or vibration every time you open the keyboard.
For example
tap the google box for a quick search
Start writing a message with any app
Basically anything that triggers the keyboard also triggers a notification.
That **** has been killing my battery...
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Settings > Sound & Vibration > System sound/vibration control
Set the vibration and sound to your liking.

Thanks for trying. Went in and turned everything off and it still happens.
The issue is why the hell does me opening the keyboard warrant any kind of notification?

Sorry man. It's been such a long time. I don't remember what I did but I think I remember how I did it. I used the notification module from good lock. Nice catch. That told me where to find it. I think. Not 100% sure but that's the best I can do for you.
