Voice notification with text alert - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

Can anyone tell me how to cut off the voice notification that happens everytime I get a text? I've looked in settings but haven't seen anything that would change it.

Its part of the "voice talk" app. You must have it set to drive mode so it announces everything that happens on your phone. You can turn it off through the widget, or through the app itself.

Vibrate?

Any app that will let you adjust how long the vibrate on an in coming call will last? The default just ain't cutting it.

I turned off mine. When I get a call.
And I've never heard of one app that could do that. But who knows.

What I mean is like long short long vibrate. Something that will pulse til it got my attention.

I used to use an app called Missed Call on my droid to make custom settings for my contacts before handcent added that feature. I only text really so call settings don't matter to me but if I remember correctly, it has settings for everything from email to call to texts.
Just looked in the market and it seems to have been abandoned. You could still give it a try.

Weird text tone

I have my regular text tone as normal but after the tone sounds a voice says message from the person that sent it. I don't know what happened, I've looked in the sound settings and I can't find a way to disable it. Any help here, it started doing it out of the blue and I hate it.

You most likely had your phone in driving mode and didn't realize it. If it happens again or you want to reproduce, Hit the home button twice to bring up voice controls, hit cancel, and then check to see if driving mode is on/off.

Turn On Screen With Notifications?

Any app out there that will do this? What about ability to turn screen on with long press of Home Button?
Try notify lite. Its free in the market. If i recall, there's an option to turn on screen when notifying. I used it with my Photon, it worked pretty good on that phone.

I know handcent does this for text messages so I know it can be done

There is also a market app called Missed Message Flasher that I use. You can set it to flash for all kinds of alerts

Annoying Voice Alerts

I am getting voice alerts for emails and phone calls. I will tell me I have 1 email when it arrives, and also it just recently began telling me who is calling me when the phone rings. I did not change any settings, and I have looked everywhere to figure out where these alerts are controlled. Can anyone help?
Turn off the driving mode toggle in the notifications pull-down

Turn off notifications and use an app like light flow.
Use a different MMS app.

This.
I use Handcent and there is an option in settings to set the "Do Not Wake Screen" setting.
You need to go into your stock SMS app settings and uncheck notification options though.
As suggested by another user, turn off notifications in the sms app. Download an app called sms popup in the play store. Go into that app. Disable the popup notification. Set the rest of the settings such as the notification icon, notification sound, etc. With all that done, you essentially have the stock app behaving the way you want. I've been rocking this solution along with light manager for a few weeks and it's flawless.
