I am seeing something weird happening on my GN2 and cannot find how to stop it. The TouchWiz is talking back in some places. For example if I click on a folder I get "The folder is open" and if I close the folder I get "The folder is closed". If I open editing page to adjust the order of home screens I get "Home screen editing page is open" and when I close it I get "screen 4 of 8". Very annoying.
I tried everything, Sound settings, Accessibility settings, went down all settings one by one. Cannot find it.
Does anyone know where to go to turn it off?
Thanks

Do you have Light Flow or Light Manager or some other notification LED managing apps?
But it should be in accessibility settings btw.
Nop, no light flow or any other led apps. And nothing that I found in accessibility is disabling that voice

Is there no TalkBack option in your accessibility settings?

I don't know when or how, but I once accidentally turned on car mode.
system settings -> accessibility -> text to speech -> driving mode.
I could swear there is some sort of setting for blind people. Maybe that's it?

There is but it is disabled. I went through all options of TalkBack and none of them affected this. TalkBack is turned off right now but I still get the same response.

Never had Light Flow installed.
Maybe clear data and cache on Talkback, S Voice or what ever "talking" apps you have. That would reset them as if they have never been used.
Do you know any solutions to this annoying problem? Its impossible to watch full screen flash videos with stock browser. Screen turns off automatically. i tried turning on/off smart stay, no difference whatsoever. I even installed 3 different versions of flash player, cleaned the browser cache ,nothing. What the hell is this? I am so sick of this stupid bugs.
do you know a way to fix it? and no I don't wanna use other browsers.

Smart Stay works for me when watching on the actual device. Not sure why it doesn't work for you.

No, smart stay works when the room is lit but I like to watch videos in bed which makes it impossible because smart stay doesnt work in dark.

Ya could try to find an app in the play store that overrides the screen timeout settings? I dont think its a glitch i think its just how this phone is

I just want to open browser and be able to watch damn videos. Why do I need to install screen timeout apps and click it everytime I need to wqtch something. How convenient is this?

Yeah , it's annoying.
But I guess Android Jellybean system files dont support adobe flash out of box so maybe tweaking system files for screen time to support flashplayer is needed.

Try Screeble, best App to keep screen on while in use, by using screen orientation / gyroscope/apps

Highly recommend!

Search for "Screen On" on Google Play. Free app, no ads. Tick the stock Internet browser and enable the service within the app (disable the annoying icon in the notifications bar within the settings). Voila, issue resolved.

Thanks a lot for that, works great
So ive been trying to find the setting to disable this. Ive pocket dialed the police at work twice and had to disable my pattern lockscreen because of it. And as I do online banking this is not an option lol. Ive checked every setting I can think of and even disabled the little quick reply popup and nothing. Anyone got any ideas?

I used a 3rd party sms that lets me disable the screen coming on. I use chompsms and I think it works for your purpose
edit...I thin my screen doesn't come on because I have the folio case that keeps the screen off until I open the cover. maybe try a proximity app to keep the screen off while in your pocket

Well I installed chompsms and changed the setting and now i dont get text messages at all...

You can install LightFlow (or another LED manager) to manage your LED Notifications.

First make sure you have the led turned on...its in the settings. Light flow will work but you have to disable talkback (its an Android problem not an LG issue) question.. does your led light up when you turn the phone on? ..when your phone is off turn it on if it lights up all the colors then its working if not then maybe a hardware issue.

I have the led turned on. When you say disable it you mean have the toggle to off correct? Yup, it goes through all the colors when booting up.

Went into apps and disabled it there. Still no go.
So anyone get lightflow to work? Doesn't seem to work for me.

Working for me. Did you enable it in accessibility settings and enable notifications for the individual apps you want notifications for (via Lightflow)?
I didn't try it with your AOSP Messaging app, yet. I wasn't even getting status bar notifications, though.

In your Accessibility Settings disable TalkBack and make sure Light Flow is enabled. Hopefully that straightens things out.

You need to actually go in to the main settings, General, apps, select talkback, force stop, and then disable it (you may need to uninstall updates first). I had the same problem a little while ago. Does it only say the letters using the LG keyboard? Mine didn't do it for other keyboards.
Also, if you use tasker at all, it can successfully control the led colors. If you want to play with it, you can assign different colors for specific notifications. I haven't done so yet for the ogp, but I made an app for the lgog (only one color for that led though). Also, if you look up something called "buttonled" by germainz here on xda, he has made a tasker profile and app that might work for you too.

I did a factory reset and went in and disabled talk back. Led works now with lightflow. Only thing that bothers me is when I test the new color, it'll blink new color then a different color then back to assigned color. That normal for this phone? Thanks for the help by the way.
I just messed around with a bunch of settings and talk back under accessibility is not on but if I open up the browser it will say page loaded

Nevermind I figured it out under accessibility I had greenify turned on thinking it would help the app kill background processes but it still makes talk back talk when apps are being closed or browsers are being opened or pages are being loaded so I turned it off

Greenify is an app which hibernates user apps so the cpu is able to get into deepsleep. What RussellEstrige25 meant, was that you have to make sure that no app is enabled under accessibility because that might cause the talkback issue. Greenify was just an example
