text to speech function? - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Is there a text to speech function in the Note 10+. Looked but can"t seem to find it. Have it on my V40.

Settings>Accessibility>Screen Reader, turn on voice assistant and in the settings below you can make your changes and will see text to speech for adjustment of settings for that.

Tried it but can't seem to get to work for messages only. I usually carry the phone in my BOB and need to hear the text vocalized.

Some Google Voice Help Please :)

So I've integrated my Sprint Number with Google Voice - Cool. I like it. Mostly it's awesome to be able to sit at my computer and text\call people from a number they actually recognize. And being a flash addict, and yet someone who also wants to keep ALL my texts, it is quite useful.
Anyways when I first integrated, every incoming text would give me two notifications, one from Voice and one from default SMS app. I did something - changed a setting - I'm not sure, probably on the desktop side of things, but now I'm only receiving texts in Voice. They aren't showing up at all in my SMS app. Can someone help a noob out? I appreciate it!
I haven't used the integration, but what if you try to re-set it up and disable the text feature?

Sigh One day I'll learn to think outside the box! I have to wait 15 minutes after disabling to enable, but I'll let you know if it worked. It may not, because the settings may be stored server side and kept regardless of disabling, but I will soon see. Thanks.
So, messages are now showing up in SMS app again, so thats good, but I'm getting the double notifications again. Does anyone know how to disable text notifications for Voice? Also, I told voice that I wanted to route all calls through it - I've changed my mind haha. How do I change that setting?

Well for google voice, I don't know how to, since I don't use the text feature, but in chomp, you can simply go to the notification settings and disable them, and you'll only see them on chomp.

to disable text notifications, you will also have to disable voicemail notifications. just enable text/email notification for voicemail
I think it had something to do with Spring and google because same thing happened with me i still get picture mail on stock messenger and i can still send out once but none come in Sprint is maing out on that deal they are not getting any text data on are accounts

Ahhh. Well thats not clear in the least bit. If the notification feature is tied to both voicemail and text they should label it as such. But still thats an annoyingly stupid limitation. Surely they understand why someone, and I would guess most people, would like a voicemail notification, but not two sms notifications. /rant
Anyways, thanks for the help! Also for my other little problem about setting up all calls through gVoice, I just happened to stumble on a widget that switched that... still don't know where the setting to change it is though.
Voice took over everything and i didnt like it. I didnt even want voice to do it, but somehow it did. The only way i could figure out how to get back the option of what number to dial out from (google or cell) was to find older version of voice and install.

Text to Speech -> Install Voice Data

I just found this option in my defy.
Settings -> text to Speech -> install Voice Data
But this thing is grayed out. So how can i install it?
And also I would like to enable the voice dialing option. But as of now its completely faulty or it doesn't understand our accent! Is there anyway of improving this thing.
In one of my nokia mobile I have seen like, we can record the names as we say it, so that next time when we say, it will easily detect!

google voice started to show missed calls, how do i turn it off

recently, my google voice app has been showing missed calls when i open the app. i don't need to see it in google voice since it shows in my call log. all i want google voice to show is my voicemails. can i turn off what labels get synced, or just turn off the option. i can't find it in settings. it wasn't doing this before so i'm not sure if a recent update started this.
does anyone know how to do this?
I think u can change it in GVoice settings thru web browser, I've actually changed it before to show those missed calls.

??? its sunder settings/calls
Missed Calls
Place missed calls in the inbox
Send missed calls to my email
the thing is i already checked the browser setting and to place missed calls in the inbox is not selected, yet it's still doing it.
My Samsung skyrocket is doing this same thing and its driving me NUTS! Any solutions yet?
Ive got this problem too and tried to fix via the web interface -- didn't work. The best work around is to go to labels and select inbox and the messages go away. Quite annoying for sure.
i tried to disable the messages label, but i can't find how to do that. i don't want to be selecting the label everytime. that's even more annoying.
anyone know how to fix this

Pre Call Screning

So, I get a phone call, and I swipe to answer, but I get an automated voice that says, 'Call from (caller) ... if you'd like to answer, press 1'. Now, while I don't mind the screening, is there a way to disable that? I find myself missing calls because of it.

Thats not the normal behavior for stock Sprint dialers. Are you running the stock ROM? Are you using google voice?
You have call screening turned on in Google Voice. You need to change the settings on the google voice site.
I've found it. It's a G-Voice issue.

[Q] Speech to text on apps? Possible?

I am sure it must be an option, but is it possible for speech to text to work on the Tab S?
i.s I speak my text messages and it types the words for me. I know it works in Google Now, but how about in the other applications, like text messages/facebook etc?
I know my old Desire phone had the option..
I know Swype keyboard has a Dragon speech to text option. I don't know how well it works but it does work with any app.
I think the Google keyboard also has a google voice typing option. Again I don't know how well it works since I never use it.

try the new app Voice Typing Keyboard VTK. it lets you input text anywhere you can with voice. there is no microphone button to push, just say "listen" or "spelling" when in a text field to start dictation. you can move cursor, do editing formatting, insert symbols punctuation etc all with voice too. has an on-screen keyboard too if you need it. since I do most of my typing with voice, so i hide the on-screen keyboard most of the time
