[Solved][Q] GPS voice stuck on DATA CONNECTION LOST - HTC Amaze 4G

I was using my GPS today to goto my cousins house, and I noticed every time it comes time for my GPS to announce the next turn, instead of saying something like "turn left" it says "data connection lost". At first I thought I was getting bad service, but then I realized I have full 4g and phone signal and my GPS is fine, its just changing the words to "data connection lost".
Has anyone else experienced this? I'm using Google Navigation fully updated on NRG 8/1 stock Rom with the most recent faux kernel. It only started happening, or rather I only noticed it, after I installed the Google Now Zip in the Amaze development section, so later I'm gonna uninstall and try it again. Any other suggestions?

I had a similar issue where it would give me a street name(I was not in my home state and the name was from home) instead of the turns although it was sending me in the right direction. I uninstalled and reinstalled....problem solved. Good luck.
Live and Die on this day....

Did you uninstall Now or Navigation?

Sorry yeah, I asked because I stated in OP that it started after I installed Google Now.
But you were right. Once I reinstalled Google Navigation it fixed.itself. thanks.

I.had it happen where it was just announcing the same direction over and over, but the map was still sending me the right way. I just deleted the app data, and ask was fine again.

Linda is always talking to me

Ok so i'm not sure what setting I turned on but whenever I'm on the phone and someone calls linda starts chatting my ear off with the callers number and name and all that jazz. I' ve messed with just about every setting I can think of and looked all over. If anybody has any ideas I would greatly appreciate them. Thanks

I think I forgot to mention it will read the text messages too. I' ve looked in Assesability settings and nothing yet.

It is an app you downloaded. I had to turn that crap off too. She never shuts up. Go to accessablity or something in your settings.
Thanks that's what I thought. I hope I can narrow it down she's driving me friggin nuts.

Vlingo perhaps?
Post the name of the app when you find out

Not sure if that is it but I recently started to use vlingo. I have to go to running services just to kill it. Kind of annoying.
I'm new here but just thought i would give some advice because i had the same issue with my text to speech. Go into settings under voice input/output, text to speech see if driving mode is checked. If so all you have to do is uncheck it

yeh then its probably vlingo. just open it up and there's an option to read everything or stay silent.
I don't have vlingo but I just uninstalled all of my unessary navigation software (except stock nav) and see if it's something caught up in there. If not I'll just use titanium backup to reinstall them. If it does take care of it them I'll just reinstall them one by one.

And I did look at driving mode nothing was checked so I'm going to see if unistalling oruxo maps helps. If not then I think I'll try checking it rebooting then unchecking it see if that works.

Settings > Voice input and output > Text-to-speech settings > Driving mode?
Yeah the driving mode was unchecked so I'm going with an app somewhere, but haven't gotten two phone calls our a text while I'm on the phone since I posted

Go 2 settings....then voice inout/output make sure all the way on bottom piko isnt checked snd make sure that near top no other boxes are checked....happened to me as well. I think it when I downloaded text to speech for google maps

Ok so it wasn't the nav apps. I have gone to voice/default engines and when I uncheck Pico it just closes the window when I reopen it it shows pico is still enabled

Is anyone else having keyboard issues after the update?

Hello everyone! I upgraded to ICS today, and noticed that the notification to chose a keyboard keeps popping up. It also says that Google Voice is chosen when I've disabled it. Can anyone help me with this? I really appreciate it!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Hi,
After the ics update you will have to press the imput method to change the keyboards you want to use. That's normal ;-)
Sent from my LT26i using xda premium
Thank you for replying! I chose the Android keyboard, and the prompt to choose a keyboard still pops up. I tried restarting and rebooting my phone and nothing is making this notification go away. As you can see in the pic I attached, the only option it will check off when I touch it is Google Voice. It's making me nuts.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It's always there.
So the notification to choose a keyboard will always pop up when I go to type?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
We all have that same screen with google voice so don't drive yourself to nuts over that. Its the default keyboard that needs to be set which it looks like you did so I'm not sure why it keeps prompting you to choose.
Edit: I notice you have google voice unchecked. Recheck it, set default keyboard to whatever you want and report back
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Okay, I did what you suggested and have included screen caps. For some reason the notification to choose the keyboard isn't going away. I can ignore it if it's not a fixable problem, I'm just a little OCD about my notifications being cleared.

Reflash the ROM bud
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Can you please tell me how to do that?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
It will always be up there with a keyboard open.
Cm9 has an option to turn off that notification, otherwise it'll be there.
If you wanna reflash...Just do exactly what you did in the first place...
I don't think he flashed a ROM before if he got the ota . There is a tutorial stickied in the general page as to going about flashing and rooting

Skype

Hey all. I just tried Skype on my phone for the 2nd time today and was told that my image was green. The first time it was on the vzw network so i assumed there was a bandwidth issue however today I was on wifi.
Looking it up on Google it seems to be an issue with HTC phones on ICS and the Skype app. Has anyone found a fix for this or must we wait until JB?

That's odd. My skype is working 100% fine... I am on ViperLTE 1.0.0. Try deleting the data for the app. May be it is something with the latest OTA if you are on that.
Its supposedly an issue with HTC phones which would explain why yours works fine.

Is it possible the camera settings would affect color? Try setting your White Balance to compensate for the color temp of the lighting where you're located during the call. I suspect this might be the source of the problem.

Sprint max hotspot app reboots data

I'm on vipermax 1.0.1 and all was well till about an hour ago. We have 4g here but I can't connect (that's not the issue I get some error right when I boot about LTE if you know about that you could help too lol). But I've been using the default hotspot app and it worked fine but all of a sudden as soon as I turn it on 3g goes in and out cycling indefinatly. New to sprint not to android.
