Annoying pop-up message when disabling Flight mode / Data - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi everyone,
I recently upgraded to 4.3 and finding it very annoying about two notifications as explained below.
Whenever I disable the flight mode or mobile data, a message keeps popping up which is very annoying on my day to day activities.
Please refer to attached screen shots.
Why don't they have a tick box to say something like "Do not show again" or so ....
is there any solution to get rid of this?
Thanks and cheers to all ....

Couldn't agree more! I can't stand this! Why isn't there a "do not show again" message. They seriously think we are stupid or that we're going to go crying to tech support when we can't make calls because airplane mode is active.
Has anyone found a solution for this on 4.3?

I have never had any popup dialog box when toggling the Mobile Data button.
However ever since 4.2 which I have been using for the last 6 months the Flight Mode popup dialog box comes up every single time you toggle it on or off which is the most annoying thing about Android I have ever experienced. (since I use Flight mode several times daily).
I'm guessing the suggestion of having "Do Not Show Again" would be more suitably aimed at either Samsung or Google (Android)?, and I seriously doubt that those guys will change/fix it.
So is there anyone here in XDA land that could provide a fix/mod/hack for this issue please?
I also had the same popup msg problem when turning up the volume (on 4.2) which was annoying as all hell! -But I haven't seen it again since 4.3 though I'm not sure if that was from the JB update, or if it was a part of Omega ROM's old Loud Volume hack which seems to be no longer available since 4.3
Anyway thanks in advance for anyone's help to permanently disable popup msgs.
Cheers

SMS Voice notification. How to turn it off?

Hi Guys,
Somehow I seem to have turned on a feature which reads out the number of the person sending me a text message. This happens when my phone is on silent too. Which is begining to annoy me, especially when I am at work. Have had a look through settings for SMS but can't see the option to turn it on or disable it. Does anyone know how I can switch it off?
Thanks.

I have not seen any Settings like this in my Mobile for now.If you are sure you changed some settings and than it started reading out numbers use factory default settings it might Help but before doing that wait for some time some other members might know how to stop it.If you have not Received any answer about this than use factory default settings.
The thing is I don't remember changing any settings for this at all. It's not something I wanted to have switched on. I'm reluctant to do a factory reset as I have my phone setup just perfectly at the moment.
Hit the home button twice to get the voice launcher up, turn off "driving mode"
Job done.
Thanks for that. Although I managed to resolve it another way. Went into Settings - voice input and output and de-selected Driving mode.
Your way is a lot quicker though. One for the books.
No worries, took me 48 hours to figure it out for myself the first time.

[Q] How to turn off automatic text to speech reading?

hey everyone,
Weird thing happened today. I am in a review session (finals this week... ugh) and I get a text message from my wife. For the first time ever the phone reads it out loud even though my phone is on silent! It was embarrassing because of the whole phone going off in class but also because of the content of the message...
I really want to turn this off... any tips?
What I know:
driving mode is off
beautiful widgets silent mode shuts it off.
Thanks!!
Have you installed the cluezee app? If so and you opened it, that could be it. Also try enabling and disabling drive mode then rebooting. Vlingo could also be the culprit if it's inadvertently on.

[Q] Galaxy S 2 Phone Options Displaying Incorrect Information Ref: Silent Mode On/Off

Hi, Have had Galaxy S 2 for 5 weeks, it was working properly up until the screen failed last week, went off for official repair, came back fixed, all good I thought....But a New Issue Has Manifested
The methods of toggling through having sound on or in silent mode are giving false indications......
In phone options, which are entered by a long press on the power button, the first option is silent mode on / off, but the phone is doing the exact opposite to what it says! I have missed a couple of important calls because I checked the phone status this morning when I came out of a meeting, it said "Silent Mode On" So I hit it to activate Silent mode off, which it displayed, however, got to office and 2 calls had been missed, the phone was not ringing out at all...! (Even though it was displaying silent mode off) when I toggled bact to silent mode on, it would then ring???!???
I have soft reset, hard reset, and neither has made a difference. Now, do I send phone back again and be without it for 10-12 days, or is there a simple fix/issue I am missing here? If it was a Nokia, I would have re-installed the firmware as the next action, but cannot work out how to do this on a Samsung Galaxy S 2.
If I choose phone update in about phone, it tells me no new updates available.. There does not seem to be a re-install existing firmware route to take.
Please advise?
Thanks in anticipation;

factory restore reinstalls the existing firmware .

Hmm, well it cannot be that then, can it... Any ideas why phone is "Cross Wired" for want of a better explanation for the Silent On / Off reversal?

[Q] STOP Mobile Data Connection Pop-Up Notification

Hi, since updating to Jelly Bean, 2.4.whatever it is now. The latest one as of 04/05/2013, I've had this irritating message pop up every time I connect to, or, DISCONNECT from mobile data 3G network. Alerting me when I connect I could understand if not condone, but when I choose to DISCONNECT? What the hell android? Now as a user of an open source device, naturally I'd expect some sort of option to tick in the pop up saying "never affront me with this stupid and unnecessary bothersome tripe until the day I am a cold and maggot ridden corpse", sadly, no such thing. Every time. Every god-of-reader's-choice damned time.
On my previous S3, I found a work around. Flash a new ROM. Went with Cyanogen mod but lost a load of features I liked, such as calling people from contacts by simply swiping right, and a hell of a lot of other things I just couldn't be bothered to wait for the Cyanogen devs to build in. So I tried flashing back to stock, wrote the phone off. Yes, it was bricked beyond repair, no recovery options, just download mode, forever, and, without USB debugging so I couldn't force root or roms or anything else.
Dead.
I really don't want to have to go through that with my replacement. I have rooted it, which is basically safe, so I was able to kill the other annoying aspect of the S3, the loud alert which sounds just to let you know you've connected or disconnected the charger. AS THOUGH YOU HADN'T NOTICED WHEN YOU DID IT. So, rooted it, found the sound file, deleted. Done.
What I want to do now is, find the pop up... code. Or whatever it is. And delete that too. Or the code that says "display irritating pop up now", or something. It must be stopped. Please, if there is anyone who has found a way around this, which doesn't involve flashing a new ROM, I'd really appreciate it and by the extensive Google search, so will about...4 other people in the world.
TLDR:
Need help disabling the notification which pops up when I connect or disconnect mobile data.
I don't want to flash a new rom.
I am rooted, but wouldn't how to get into the code.
Maybe something which displays an active process tree on my PC while I'm using the phone, I can turn on data connectivity and see what the console displays? Then find and stab the sh*t out of the code...
Ta!

Google assistant not working when in sleep mode, after pie upgrade.

Hi,
I have an S9+ with Rogers in Canada, which was recently upgraded to Android pie. Ever Since I have not been able to use Google assistant when the phone is in sleep mode. Prior to the update, I was able to say "OK Google: set the timer for xxx minutes", when the phone was in sleep mode. But now it doesn't work anymore, other than vibrating. It still works on other screens, just not when the phone is asleep.
I called Samsung but they were useless telling me that I need to press the home button and that it has always been so and that nothing changed with Android Pie but that is BS.
Can other Pie users please verify, that OK Google works on your phone when it is in sleep mode and if anyone else has the same issue as I and if you have a solution.
Thanks,
Roli
Sleep mode? as in while screen is off? or another mode?

Yes. When the screen is locked.
My phone was like that at one point, I am on Pie now and I had to go into the settings and make sure it was set to work even when the screen was off. Took a minute to find, have you checked there?
Settings/Google/Search, Assistant and Voice/Voice/Voice Match
I have. The phone vibrates when the screen is off and I say "OK Google" but is the screen remains black until I press the home button.
I'm thinking now that perhaps it has something to do with security and not with Google Assistant. I'm going to check my security settings. Maybe there's something there.
Come to think of it, I've had that happen before, not now but some time ago. I never sound effects, never really tried, somehow it just seemed to resolve itself after a while I guess. Good luck and keep us posted, you might be right in that it has to do with some security setting or something.
This? Access with voice match?
There is also that one underneath that says 'unlock with voice match', for use if you have a screen lock set up I guess. Did you try that one as well?

I’m sure that’s the option the OP needs to use.
I think it's a common problem with Google assistant and potentially the same as the 'voice unlock paused' issue, I've seen people complaining about both on pixel forums as well as on here (if Google can't get it right with their own phone what hope do we have!!). There were a few steps around deleting the voice model and resetting the smart lock agent (see screenshot). I did this and retrained the voice model in absolute silence which seemed to work for a bit but has since stopped. Annoyingly it doesn't seem to take into account when I'm at home and the phone is unlocked with smart lock!

OK. Here is my screenshot of the settings that I have on my phone. Access and Unlock with Voice Match are turned on.
Let me reiterate. The phone is reacting to "OK Google" on every screen so the voice match is working.
The problem is that when when I am on the lock screen and I say "OK Google" the phone vibrates, acknowledging that it heard the prompt but it does nothing until I press the home button or power button.
Have a look at this video. (I distorted for privacy reasons the audio because my phone and tablet were reacting when I was playing back the video):

I have the S9+ on Rogers and thankfully, this feature continues to work flawlessly after the upgrade as I use it often in my daily work..It actually seems to be more responsive after the update.
It can be very frustrating when the feature randomly stops working but it is usually due to an update on Google's end that causes it as I can usually fix it by going through the voice setup steps after an update..
In extreme situations you may want to uninstall and then reinstall the Google app..
Had the same problem myself and fixed it, just go to app info for Google and clear the cache and clear data, worked a treat for me

I'm on an S9+ with Bell in Canada and I can still unlock my device with voice when it's sleeping even though it gave me a notice that I would no longer be able to.
For some reason I've lost the ability to voice control any of my smart devices through Google Home. Seems like a related but different problem.
That, the lack of pro video mode and the brutal battery life have really turned Pie into a nightmare for me..
Hope they release fixes for these issues or I'll have to look at flashing..
