Hello,
I don't know when this happened but my phone now makes anouncements verbally announcing the number of the caller and my appointment subjects when they go off. Cann you tell me how to disable the verbal part? I still want the ringer or the ding, but not something that tells others around me what I've got going on.
Talkback is off
Driving mode is off
Do you have something enabled in accessibility doing this? Talkback?

Thanks but I can't find something enabling it that I know of.
Have you looked at all the options under accessibility?

After the latest 4.1.2 update i've had an unusual bug come up. When i'm in the middle of a phone call, my screen shows the (for lack of a better term...) chooser screen when you decide whether to accept the call, hang up, or reply with a text. I can't get rid of it and it overlay's the big red "End Call" button so to hang up I have to hit the home button, then pull down the notifications and select "hang up" from there.
Maybe there's a setting that i'm missing but i didn't change anything and the only thing that has changed on my phone is the 4.1.2 update. Does anyone have any idea's what's going on?
I unlocked and rooted my phone to get the Jelly Bean update about 3 months ago but other than that I haven't messed with it. Any help anyone can give would be great. I'm a big fan of xda.
You checked "Yes this is a question"
Guess where it belongs?

You might try wiping data in the phone apk.

Thanks Sphinx, works great now. Love that this site and everyone involved is here to help us out.
After I updated to 4.2, my notifications won't stop vibrating.
I put it on vibrate mode and went into the apps to turn off vibration, but they still vibrate.
For example I went into gmail to turn off vibrating notifications and it still happens. Also for IM+ I turned it off and it vibrates every time someone sends a chat.
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks in advanced.
I am having a lot of frustration about this too. My msg apps keep vibrating and cannot be turned off.

Same thing for me. Gmail vibrates even if vibration is set to never.

Somebody thinks it is a unlucky, "feature" introduced in 4.2

Just in case you are curious, the last update to 4.2.1 did NOT solve the problem (at least on Galaxy Nexus)
A bit of a late reply, but the issue we're experiencing seems to be caused by this: https://github.com/android/platform_frameworks_base/commit/9a7debe5857ffc7c71cfc4082b1b6d72a5cf81cd
Somebody made a commit that forces the device to vibrate, even when you tell it not to, as long as you're in "vibrate" mode. If you want it completely silent, you have to manually turn off the sound it would normally generate as well. Bit of a fail, if you ask me.
So it seems my Wifi is broken. I have another phone, which is mostly functional except for the vibration is dead, but that's not the point of this post. This phone is out of warranty, and will be otherwise sold or given away if I can't fix the wifi(sold for more or given to someone better if fixed). Anyways, this seems to be a hardware issue because multiple roms(stock, AOSP, CM, and AOKP) all say it isn't working. The error I get isn't really an error of sorts, it just refuses to turn on. The Wifi gets stuck at "Turning Wi-Fi on..." and never turns on. The toggle tab is grey, and stuck on the off position, so I can't change that. I'd be willing to open this phone up to fix it. Any solutions at all?
Well, i don't think anyone managed to fix it..

Noticed on CM10.1 4.2.1 4.2.2 ROM's that when you call into voicemail or banking menu that requires you to press the dial pad to enter in menus options and account number info doesn't work.
I was able to fix it by turning dial tone touch sounds off in the dialer options. Just thought I'd let you all know in cause someone else is having this issue since a Google search brought up really vague results.
Hope I posted in the right place. Move if needed.

Actually, they work with the tones on. You just need to press and hold the keys a little longer to allow the other end to capture the tone.

That was the first thing I tried.

I had same problem with liquidsmooth 2.1 RC2, and disabling touch sounds fixed the problem. However now that I upgraded to liquidsmooth 2.1 stable, the workaround does not work anymore. Neither does holding button, it's a set DTMF tone length. my voicemail is useless now. anyone have any idea on how to solve this problem?
UPDATE:
I did some more research, and the only thing I can think is the standard aosp phone.apk is used in both roms. I did find a feature request for it. (URL Below) So let me get this straight, my new phone cant dial a voicemail? or use a touch tone menu for calling tech support?
I would post this in developer forums, as there has been many questions lately about this problem, but I'm not allowed because I'm a noob. Guess I won't find a solution to this problem anytime soon. Seems I cant post links either......

So we've tried rooting and unrooting, using different roms and everything. Anytime the screen is locked, the clock will lock and not track time. So he will lock it at 8:40pm and it will unlock at the same time or slightly past, but not a proper time. We've tried auto and non-auto time zones, also clock sync apps. Nothing seems to work. Any ideas or suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated. Phone is unlock running on Bell.
