[Q] Why isn't phone announcing callers? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

I noticed today that my SGSII no longer tells me who's calling. I don't know when it stopped doing it so I can't trace it back to something I did or installed. I know it was doing it, but not what app or process is responsible for it or why it no longer does. I remember there was a setting choice on whether to do this, but I can't find it nor did I turn it off. I'm guessing maybe Juice Defender or some other app may be inhibiting it. Any clues?

Do you mean callerid? CityID does that, but i think it is trial or something. Try TrueCaller, it is free from their website.

Setting, voice input output, text to speech, check driving mode.

Yeah, so did I. I was more curious about what might have turned it off since I didn't do it myself.

I'm sorry that I hurt your feelings, I was just demonstrating to you with an example that you need to provide details if you'd like people to be able to assist with your problem. Thank you for demonstrating to me proper forum etiquette with your thoughtful, reasonable, polite and appropriate responses.

Ah ok. Next time, try clearing the data of the application. I always wait until I've reached a complete dead end before factory resetting; getting everything set back up can be a pain, unless you hadn't done much to it yet.

Yeah I did that. Cleared the data, uninstalled/reinstalled. Tried an older version from titanium backup. Google searched...lol I was at a dead end. But its no big deal doing a factory reset, I had tons of backups. So it took me about 30 mins to get back to normal.

Getting my feeling hurt was the last thing that happened lol. Its funny though how other people corrected your post by agreeing I gave enough info for the average person on xda w enough common sense to realize my issue. Can't get anymore detailed then "hey, is anyone having issues sending emails w the gmail app" cause if not, I would have done exactly what I did, a factory reset. But thanx for being such a helpful member of xda

Having audio during boot is possible. I remember flashing an ics rom that had audio during the boot screen.

I get the feeling Mikey9L was being sarcastic and meant no offense. But if he wasn't, shame on him.
EDIT: Never mind, since Mikey9L's the OP (which I did not realize before posting this), there's no way he's being sarcastic. Yeah, dude, maybe you just gotta tighten up your searching skills, if someone else found it, that means you could have too.

This thread contains your only two posts to date. What a great start you are having at xda. I will give you the benefit if the doubt on the search, but insulting the person who helped you is a great way to make sure nobody helps you in the future.

Google Now rarely responds.

I don't know if this is better suited in the Jellybean thread, but I'd hate to see this drowned among the 100's of posts every day in that thread.
I am Swedish, but I've set everything possible to English (US) and to use Google.com instead of Google.se and to always speak back, yet it rarely does. It also completely ignores statements and only googles them. LIke if I say: "I can count to potato", it searches the web for it rather than throwing me a sassy comeback or whatever.
Google now only gives back useful information .. no jokes and useless chats.

Yes they do, but hopefully you as well
Try vlingo or just use s-voice (based on vlingo like siri).
Iris would also be something you could try, it's almost only usable as chat bot.
Google now is to get informations or handle tasks, no chat bot.

[Q] ROOTing the DNA

Hey guys,
I realize there is a lot of posts about this, but everyone I try, does not work because my phone has the latest update? I was wondering if there has been a new release and i just cant find it about how to Root the DNA?
Any help is appreciated, Thanks
You can not root your phone short of sending it to a guy to open it up and jtag it.

Agreed. It clearly states in both the s-off and unlock threads that it's not for 2.xx. And people are still getting their hands on 1.xx version DNAs, so the info is still valid and needed.

I agree completely, send it off and have it JTAG'd. Turn around time is real quick. Having an unlocked phone is that important to me too so before I buy a phone I do my research and know exactly what I'm getting into. You got lucky with the DNA though because of it having the ability to be unlocked via JTAG. I definitely recommend proceeding it's an amazing phone.
The reason that you're getting a hard time is because a quick google search, site search, or reading through one of the many threads you mentioned seeing would have answered your question. It's nothing personal, and the good thing is that people are quite forgiving around here.

People are forgiving because they're sitting around on their thumbs with 2.04 or 2.06, locked and stocked.
JTAG or bust!
