Awesome GN2 texting capabilites - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II

I apologize if this is already known but I'll post it anyway. I was actually able to text using the voice to text feature but heres the kicker....I was currently in a call using the speaker phone! The GN2 didnt pick up the voice coming through the speaker phone, just my voice! I spoke into the phone and sent the text.

Theres a multicolor widget on TW4 that has 3 buttons on one of the screens. They relate to Text to speach while driving, sounds like one of them is on. Hope this helps
It's the driving mode, should be the car icon. Make sure it's off.

If you open Voice Talk, you can uncheck Driving Mode, that will turn off the voice for new notifications.
Lol this happened to me to when I first got this phone.

Even if car mode is off, and "driving mode" is still on in Voice Talk, you will still hear the Siri-esque voice. You have to disable "Driving Mode" from within "Voice Talk" to get her to shut up.
BTW, you can change what she greets you with when you say "Hi Galaxy" in the program settings. Mine says, "What the hell do you want now, John"
It's the rom that your using. The voice is Linda I think.

That's one thing I thought it sounded like. I stripped some of the Linda sounds from my Vibrant and brought them over to my GS2. I missed them.
I can't stand that voice and all of the texts and plug in sounds. Talk about wanting attention... Lol

Truth. She makes everyone trip out when I get a call/email/text.

[Q] Google Voice causing voice distortion

I have had my T989 since October and have loved the phone except for voice quality. Using GV created such distortion that I could not even understand my own messages left on the answering machine. My spouce refused to talk to me when using the phone. This was true with or w/o using the case.
In January, I returned the phone to Samsung, and they did a software update. The update did away with a minor echo problem, and calls w/o GV are now acceptable but not as good as previous phones. I want to use my GV number for business, but I am too ashamed to do so. My voice is still unintelligible to the listener. Has anyone else experieincd this problem with GV on a T989?

A little distortion is to be expected with VOIP, but GV is horrible on my GSII.
I think that it is just a malfunction with your phone bro I have been using GV for about 3 yrs and never had any problems.
I've been using it for years with no issues until this phone.

I do not use wifi. GV on my phone needs all the help it can get. I even remove the cover, use noise, reduction, and tape the speaker mic when using GV. I hate to be without my phone for two weeks, but looks like I will have to send it back to Samsung again.

This has the potential to be a fantastic app, but it has a lot of work required yet. Just off the top of my head, you need the following improvements:
1. The interface needs to be much better designed. I'm sorry, but it looks ugly right now.
2. When the call is answered by any method, switch to the call-in-progress screen. If I use SpeakerPhone Ex to answer calls simply by bringing the phone up to my ear, the screen remains on because of your app, and it doesn't switch to the call screen. Same while answer calls with headsets.
3. Don't show up when not required. If the screen is turned off or locked, or if you are in the Phone app, incoming calls should just be handled regularly. Also give users the option to exempt certain apps (like exDialer, for me).
This is a great idea and I would love to use it, but at least until #2 is fixed, I cannot. Thanks for making it.

google hangout won't hangup

If I hangup a hangout video call, the person in the other end can still hear my audio and as long as they don't hangup they can continue to listen in. It works the same way in reverse, I can listen in as long as I don't hangup.
2- Samsung gallaxys, one s3 and one s4. not rooted.
Not Cool.
Shouldn't hangout disconnect everything when one party hangs up?

Same here. Even worse, it answers and I can't see or talk to the person on the other end.
