If I'm not mistaken, but you could have something turned on under accessibility menu.

If u uncheck this it will not read the name of the caller out loud. Hope this helps since no one seemed to know the answer. :thumbup:

I actually just posted a thread similar to this. I found out you can turn it off but you have to turn off voice control as well. The thing is I like to sometime answer calls with voice control because my hands are busy or in the shower or whatever...
With my previous phones(S4, Note 2), I could turn the caller ID voice prompt off independently and still have the voice control feature. But with the S5, it's both or nothing. I'm hoping I missed something but I've looked and looked...
But if you don't need both features, you can turn both off together but not one or the other(call settings > answering and ending calls > voice control).

Thanks for the reply. I too think it would be nice if u could toggle them independently. Maybe someone can cook that into a ROM.

S voice doesn't always want to talk, and yes Voice Prompt is turned on.
Does anyone know what the problem is?
Same with driving mode text to speech, wont always talk. I've installed the voice synthesis software, what is wrong?
Anyone else having this issue?

Same behavior here.
I call it the Vlingo Disaster. This S-Voice bs was just as buggy on Epic Touch (sgs2 for Sprint). It's just a buggy piece of crapware.

There was a fix for GB roms for Epic Touch - replace the vlingo.apk (or something like that, don't remember exact name) with a google voice dialer app (name the same as the one being replaced). I wonder if it still works...
Try reading the OP of this thread, see if changing those settings helps.

@nabbed, how would changing the name of an app before install (which would fail on a lot of apps) help, when the app is installed, svoice will not use that just because it was named what the original app file was named, dosnt work that way.

Sorry, I forgot to add a link, please look again, and read that OP in that thread I linked to.... But like I said, just because you change the name of an app, dosnt mean its called upon by svoice. Now if you unistall vlingo it will use what ever you have installed, no matter what the name of the app is....... Now onto why other apps won't work when the name is changed, well the problem there would be the checks made by the installer to see if anything was messed with, verification checks. That's not true on most google apps, but paid apps, well you may have an issue if you change the name. Just giving some clarification is all.

I don't know what you are talking about. Sorry, you make little sense, if any at all..
I'm confused at both people above
Any other suggestions?....
Again, S Voice works, as in it listens to me and searches for what I ask, but about 90 percent of the time she fails to talk back to me.
For example I'll say set alarm, maybe one in 10 times she will respond spoken, the other 9 times she stays quiet. The phone is not on mute, voice prompt is turned on.

The link was for an Epic 4G Touch, you're saying it will fix the voice issue on a Galaxy S3?
Yes, because what thats doing is changing your tts settings, these are universal, and not phone specific.

i can receive calls and make calls properly but my friends number cant call me, always gives him that my line is busy and i dont get a notification if he called or not.
can anyone help me. what can i do??
thanks allllll
Do you use Google voice at all? Could you have possibly blocked him on accident? A screen on and didn't realize and just happened to touch that specific key sequence? Stranger things have happened.
*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
no i dont use google voice, and if i blocked him, what shall i do?
Call carrier or go to online site and check. Could be his phone too. Do you use youmail?

Whenever I get a call, the ring is extremely quiet for the first 2 seconds and then suddenly gets much louder to where it should be. The same mp3 file worked fine with my Incredible, and it does the same thing with the default rings. I tried looking through all of the menus looking for a setting that would be causing this - and even turned vibrating off in case it was a weird power demand issue. It always happens both when the screen is on and unlocked and when it's locked and off. Anyone else having this happen?
Good to know I'm not the only one! I haven't figured it out either.

Found a thread on a GS3 forums with the problem and someone said Escalating Ring could fix it, but it didn't for me. The call simulation in the app worked, but when I called my phone it did what it always does
Where did you find escalating ring? I don't see an option.

Sorry, should have said it's an app.
I found this thread. Do we have clockwork recovery and all? This patch might work and if not I assume it won't be hard for someone to do something similar for our phones. I can't believe Samsung wouldn't make this an option. I mean, it couldn't take more than 5 minutes for one of their programmers to do that.

No problem. And no recovery yet. Good find though. Maybe it will work if we get a recovery

FIXED
I found a fix! I searched 'samsung ring" in the play store out of desperation and found the app "Disable Increasing Ring". It's free and meant for Samsung and LG phones that do this. It will leave a notification in your status bar while working, but you can hold down on it and click "App Info" and then uncheck "Show Notifications".
Awesome! Thanks. Downloading now.

So, i really want my ringer on all the time, i usually don't get many calls but the ones i get are important. So is there a way to set all other notifications (text, email, ect) to vibrate while its still in the sound profile so my phone still rings?

I wanted the same thing. I think the best way to do it is using an app called Smart Profiles. I haven't actually tried it yet though.

Can't you do this natively?
By going into Settings>sound>volumes and setting ringtone to max and everything else to silent (slider all the way to the left should be silent), and make sure Ringtone with vibration is checked in the sound settings as well?
It should make calls full volume (with vibration) and everything else on vibrate only.
Or am I mistaken/not understanding the request?

Good call. I was thinking he wanted this profile only at certain times, but that's not stated in the OP, just my assumption.
Google voice isn't give me voicemail notifications and app settings are fine. In voicemail settings, it says iconditional forwarding unsuccessful. I tried that manual way where it starts with **004 but that didn't make a difference. Any ideas? Thanks.
I still don't think this has been resolved, or really even addressed, yet.

It's funny how GV App has remain buggy and featureless. I wonder why the hell Google doesn't fix it and gives it a major overhaul like all their other apps. Like for instance I've always wondered why don't they include in-app purchasing capabilities for when you want to top off your account for international calling.... that's just messed up.
Google should really pay attention to that app, many people use this service and deserve something better.
GV works fine for me. You need to be post-paid. Pre-paid doesn't have call forwarding.
I have post paid
So do I, so that's certainly not the issue.

I got it to work by manually doing call forwarding to my GV number, only to see it switch back a couple days later. I believe it had to do with using T-mobile's WiFi calling, but I can't say for certain.
