Disable Samsung Stickers - Samsung Galaxy S9+ Questions & Answers

Does anyone know a way to disable or remove this stupid sticker button or app? I don't want it, don't use it, it's in my way, it's always getting accidentally triggered while I'm trying to type a message. I've been digging non stop for a way to just turn it off but Samsung apparently thinks everyone should have it no matter what. I've removed StickerProvider and StickerService using adb but it's still there. It's on every keyboard - Google, Samsung, SwiftKey and Swype. Driving me INSANE!

Yea I would love to know as well. You would think Samsung would learn it's lesson with these stupid things... Thank god they took them out of the phone app

1. Disable the entire toolbar from keyboard settings.
2. Using package disabler I can disable stickercenter, but the button still exist. Blank if clicked.

Looking at your signature, you are rooted yes?
If so, do you have titanium backup? if so, then you can choose to either freeze or delete vlingo(freezing is the safest option, in case you decide you may want to use the app, or just in case).
You can also use root explorer to delete vlingo.

I had the same problem, bothered me to death; Solution above is the only solution I've found so far. One thing I've noticed though since freezing Vlingo: Now it just sometimes does literally nothing when I press my home button (probably when I use my home button twice with almost no pause between)
(btw: U gotta look for "Speech", "Sprache", "Voice" or something like that, in your language)
Thank you both for answering! I had tried both solutions but didnt find Vlingo to delete, so specially thanks to kaassema for

Because it sometimes starts on accident, for example when pressing the home-button twice fast, when all you wanted was twice the action of a one-button-press...
...or for clarification: I really have no use for Vlingo, nor intention to start it, yet I have seen it's interface at least 35 times already... By accident! Thus disabled it

You can disable Vlingo quite easiily on the Samsung Galaxy S2.
Settings>Language and Keyboard>Samsung keypad>Voice Input
Untick the box and the double click on home no longer brings up Vlingo.

What if I'm using Swype keys?
Seems your suggestion didn't work.
{i'm assuming the settings is overriding global setting}
JohnN6. That does actually not work. Even if you do that, disable the processes and swipe the data for Vlingo, it will always start, with Eula questions and everything, every time you either double-tap home, or more itrritatingly, if you hit your headset button to try and bring up any preferred installed dialer. The latest three software-updates for the S2 has been like this. And to add insult to injury, Vlingo has actually no hope of working for a Swede like me. Even if I tried to voice-dial a Swedish friend, by idiotically trying to pronounce the swedish names in English, it has almost zero chance to do a correct detection.
This software just has to be able to be disabled again (like the first Software version my S2 came delivered with). I am seriously thinking of just throwing the phone and get something else over this issue. Having to touch the phone to dial anyone is in my occupation often putting me in life-threatening situations. So it is really, really bad all of this...
@ SDPlus: I had the same problem and solved it. Using Titanium Backup free version on a rooted SGS2, it was easy (all english commands are translated from German, so could be not perfect):
First I entered Titanium, "Backup & Restore", and searched for "Vlingo". As a result there came "Sprachsuche", which is German for voice search. Pointing on it long enough brought up a menu, where I could choose "backup", and after that I clicked in the same menu on "force to stop". Then I clicked on "uninstall", and off it went.
Since I have a better app for voice dial (cyberon), Vlingo was pain. Now Cyberon works as expected.
Reasons for getting rid of Vlingo (someone asked): 1. I don't want to accept their terrible terms, where I allow to collect data about everything I do , whom I call, when, whatever. Disagreeing ends up in a not working voice-dial, even if you have a paid app for that installed. That is kidnapping. 2. It does not work good enough for me. 3. If I want to be binded to a software, I would have decided to buy an IPhone.
tnx it fixed my problem too
PS: In dutch/flemish it's called "spraakopdrachten".
If you freeze it with Titanium backup the double press doesn't work anymore.
You da man, thanks much for the info.....worked perfetly!!!
I want to take the subject and would like to know if you have any good replacement for the Vlingo app?
And if it have Portuguese language!?
Thanks!

Doesn't work. I have it like that for months and voice command it is still popping up .
Very annoying
Anyone have a fix to stop Vlingo poping up all the time? Even if I dont double press the home key it comes up. Very annoying. I dont have my phone rooted either.
The best way which i did last week
I ROOTED my Galaxy s2
Installed titanium tool and I freeze the voice command
Never again I got the voice command pop up
For those who already seeking for a salvation:
Get your phone rooted, instally Titanium Backup (even free version).
When you in Titanium Backup press menu and hit Filters, enter Vlingo, Accept. And then Go to Batch operations scroll down to Freeze apps and there you will only see Vlingo sh.t in your language just hit the Run button and you are now FREE FROM VLINGO.

use go launcher
Install Go Launcher.
Open the app drawer
Click the dots and then App Manager
Click the trash can next to Voice Command.
Click OK.
Not rooted. Ics 4.0.3
I never accepted the eula after ics update. Don't think that matters. No more vlingo ! Swype still fully functional.

[Q] Help with s-voice

Okay, so my s-voice won't do anything? I say "call mom home" it prints the words I front of me & does nothing? Same thing when I give it a math problem, launch an app, or anything at all? Do I need a replacement or am I doing something wrong? I actually use voice commands alot!
Ok go to settings, application manager, on the top click all find S-voice hit it the click clear data. Hit thanks if this helps!

Clearing data worked & factory reset has worked once alsw, but I don't know why it keeps happening?
Samsung really needs to get their act together with S-Voice. Their software development on this was rushed, and it shows. S-Voice often stops working and requires clearing the App data, and even when it works, the app's inability to understand variation in syntax makes it far more limited than Apple's Siri.
I also notice that when I do a Google search using S-Voice, the web search is done through a Samsung sponsored adsense account, so it's evident that S-Voice is mainly an attempt by Samsung to monetize their users' google searches rather than an earnest effort to improve user experience.
The Galaxy S3 is great phone overall, but I hope Samsung comes out with an S-Voice update that will do this phone justice. Meanwhile, I'd love to be able to replace the double-click home button with Google Search instead of S-Voice.
However, at least I can access vanilla Google search quickly with a long-hold on the capacitive menu button.
I haven't had a problem with it yet. It sometimes gets mixed up and doesn't know what I say.

Lol I was having problems with S-Voice on my International SGS III understanding my words until I changed it from "English UK" to "English US" very odd indeed...
I'm running SVoice on my SGS2 with no problems and it's not even for our phone.
I wonder why you guys are having issues with it?
Powered by the SGSII
only problem i've had is while driving it will pick up the road noise and not end the voice command entry automatically, also if there is too much road noise the app will not audibly alert as it stops if it hears any sound
While not too surprised by it, the performance while driving leaves S-Voice worthless to me. If my window is down, I pretty much can't use it.
Also, I tried using it to launch Waze... it prints the correct name, but then says it can't find the app. I have yet to get it to open a non-default app.

I agree 100%! I use voice commands a lot, and mostly in the car is when I use them. That's the only time you ever NEED hands free control over the phone, and yet it's almost worthless in the car! I have to roll up the windows, close the sunroof, and if the AC is on you can for get it, lol. I think I'm gonna try the original vlingo app I've always used, because I know they are behind svoices software, but it worked better when I downloaded it to replace the Samsung tinkered vlingo on my s2. It could possibly be that the mic on the gs3 is very sensitive though? None the less, every phone has some apps that I don't care for.

[Q] Reenableing disabled apps, Answered

So I disabled the Phone/people app from stock because I couldn't find a way to stop the phone from vibrating profusely when people called me. (Hate vibrate unless ringer is off, waste of battery to me) So anyway cannot find a way to enable the stock app again. Running Fresh's ROM
Just reflash the Rom, it should copy the system files back to where they belong.
Yeah I figured I could reflash or restore a nandroid but am trying to avoid that until this whole Google Wallet BS gets figured out. I really don't care about using Wallet (would like to use the 10 bucks I was promised) but don't want to brick NFC in anyway whether it is Wallet or another program.

Did you scroll all the way down to the bottom of the app list(not the app drawer but the list under settings>apps>all)? That's where stuff hangs out when you disable it instead of staying in alphabetical order. This is assuming you disabled it in settings>apps>all apps
Thanks, for some reason the search option is not popping up in my window right now. It was at the bottom of said list. Mods lock if you feel necessary.

[Q] Problems with jelly bean update. Talk back in particular.

I updated to jelly bean last week. It came with talk back. trying everything I can think of, I have come to the conclusion that if anything else in accessibility is on, talk back come on too. I have a pebble watch, an love it. But when either it, or pebble notifier, it light wave is on, then the blasted voice tells me everything I am doing. It's very annoying. I tried stopping talkback with system tuner, which led to even worse problems. (like no touch screen function except with the s-pen.) Does anyone know how to get rid of talk back? Thanks in advance.

Root your phone, download an app for deleting system apps. delete it.
You can find how to root your phone in the development forums. Make sure you do it for the correct version of andriod ie:4.1.2

Disable it in settings/application manager/all applications. Find talkback and select uninstall updates. After updates are uninstalled go back into talkback from application manager, select force stop, then disable.
Right! Never delete a system app until you have disabled it or froze it with TiBU, then tested your phone fir a day or so. You never know how or what those apps are connected to.

True. Thats why I tried to disable it. And google text to speech. And Samsung text to speech. Each one stops it for a while. Then it comes back on even though it shows it is disabled. Its enough to make you start pulling out your hair.
If it says it is off then you are experiencing something else. What speech are you getting?

Whenever I turn a page. Which page of apps or widgets I am on.ect. I disabled all three. Then powered down the pbone. When it came back up, it has the talkback hand up I the top bar. Says it is on. Yet it doesn't even show up in settings/accasabilities menu. I'm stumped.

For me the issue was being caused by that fact that I have NoLED turned on in Accessibility. And it's a known issue with the developer of NoLED because he has a FAQ item about it. The best I've been able to do is get the talkback completely silent by disabling Talkback, Google Text to Speech and Samsung TTS. NoLED still works, and the nagging voice is gone, the only unwanted artifact is the HAND icon of Talkback that continues to show up in the Notification bar even though it's not running. I can live with that way easier than hearing that silly voice telling me everything I was doing.
For what it's worth I think the guides provided concerning rooting and rom upgrades for this phone are not as explicit or clearly written as they could be. Kudos to those who took time to do and provide what's there, and I realize that they've most likely moved on to newer devices, but even though I've rooted most of my devices in the past and am not a complete noob I did not feel comfortable using the provided instructions on this device. I haven't bricked a device yet, and don't want to start with this one.
Well, I'm not running no led. Whenever any of the services I use are active (pebble, or pepple notifier) are activated, talkback is activated. Like you, I have rpoted every device up to this one. Not really scared of bricking it. Just not sure a new rom would help. Contacted samsung, and was told it was a hardware problem. Like I'm an idiot. Obviously its in the software. Just not sure if it is samsung specific. Guess I'll just keep bumbling along with this work around.

FYI. You can get rid of the Talkback icon after each reboot by opening the notification bar, touch and hold Talkback, pick App Info, this will open into Settings App Info (for some reason), pick force stop and then the icon is gone until the next reboot.

Thanks. However, every time I have force stoped it, my touch screen will only work with the stylus. Touch input goes dead. And sometimes the touch alignment goes so that when you touch in one place, it refesters somewhere else. Guess I'll just live with the hand.

This whole Talkback feature appears to be filled with issues. I think I'll live with the hand (and not talk to it, lol), rather than risk more complications and further issue. So far I like Jellybean, but I hope that the next version of Android on Samsung devices fixes these issues.
As an aside, another thing that took me by surprise was the use of a new mountpoint for the external SD card. It took me a bit to figure out why /sdcard/external_sd was empty of files, but Music and other apps were able to see the data I had on the card. It's been awhile since my days as a UNIX SA and it dawned on me, literally in the middle of the night that perhaps the OS was using a different mountpoint. I was very relieved to find it under /storage/extSdCard and that my data was both there and able to be used.

Did you uninstall TalkBack (using something like Titanium BackUp) and not just disable it? If so, when you pick App Info from the Talkback notification does it open up the "Settings Version 4.1.2-I717UCMD3" app? If not It might be that we have different apps installed causing a different app to come up. If this is the case, would you mind trying going into Settings, Application Manager, All, Settings (the one with "Version 4.1.2-I717UCMD3", I have 2 Settings apps) and force stop that and see if that works.
I never uninstalled talkback. Since i haven't bothered rooting. forced stop defiantly gave me headaches, so I settled for stopping the text to speech of google and samsung. Running android 4.1.2. Ive seen on other posts where this is a samsung issue, and hopefully they are working on it. Looks like we have the same versions. Baseband i717ucmd3 with android version 4.1.2 \. Build # JZO54k.i717ucmd3. Force stopping just screws up my touchscreen, so I'll leave it enabled for now. Maybe Samsung will fix it, but I won't be holding my breath....

I too have a Pebble, and have had the issue with talkback showing up on every reboot. I had seen that it was a Samsung issue, so all I do is get rid of it on reboots. Just turn your Pebble Notifier, or I think any other accessibility app, off then back on. This will get rid of the hand, and thus far I have not had it talk to me at all. But I am running Padawan currently, so YMMV. To turn things off and on, just select the talkback notification from the bar to get into accessibility settings.
I ended up rooting for a couple of reasons. I had already frozen Google Text to Speech, Samsung Text to Speech, or whatever it's called, and the Talkback app but still had the hand. After rooting I was able to tap on Talkback in the pull down notification screen and turn off notifications of it. Strange that is was still there, but it worked and the hand hasn't been back.

Bixby You're Fired

If you like Bixby, congrats you're weird. Haha. But if you don't and want to remap I suggest using bxActions. Let's you remap the Bixby button to whatever, I use it your Google assistant.
dude exactly what I was looking for
Just an FYI bxActions seems to kill Car Mode for Galaxy. Yes car mode sucks but I don't even use the app. I use it to get into full screen mirroring so I can use ALL my apps in my car. Navigation included. Apparently bxActions overlays the screen and prevents me from using my touchscreen altogether. Once I uninstalled bxActions all was well again. I'll live with that button being active.
Not knocking bxActions. It's great for what it does. I just want mirrorlink more than I want to kill that button. I'm just putting this here for anyone else having issues with Car Mode, mirrorlink and looking for a solution.
Most all of the Bixby remappers also cause lag on your phone. I have just diabled Bixby with Package Pro Disabler.

Same here. Had too much lag, it would briefly open bixby, than the app I remapped it to. Now I just have a dead button. I wish Samsung had it remappable out the box. That and a "Just once/Always" when choosing default apps. For the meantime I use "Better open with" app. It's great.

bxActions disables Bixby and allows you to go straight to the app or action you use. Look up the app and see if it's the same as others.

Nope, still great. No annoying Bixby now.
I think I'm weird, though it's still brand new to me. I may just be caught in the novelty that you can completely control your phone with it. That was sort of the dream of the nerdy 3rd party voice apps and Tasker setups few years ago.
I was just afraid I couldn't use GA at the same time. Now I sort of feel like I have the best choice for different tasks. I've had Siri for the past year and it sucked.
But ultimately voice assistants are probably all somewhat dumb so far. Also, it must affect battery having 2 systems listening.

Same here, althought training Bixby is being a nightmare, After 2 hours I finally got to the second stage of the voice training where it wants me to read a few sentances, then it just takes a turd and says it didnt hear **** and wants to start over again.
I just never set either of them up. Problem solved! Best voice assistant I have seen is Hound. You can ask it some complex things.
You know with Bixby you can make a custom chat. Type in your question and type in what you want it to respond...can get pretty humorous

Thanks for the head's up. BK Package Disabler works great to kill Bixby. While in the app, if you hit the three vertical dots settings in the upper right one of the items is the Bixby remapper. Anyone try this yet? It looks like you have to re-enable bixby briefly in order to do the remap.
I hated bixby at first but im finding the chain commands very useful, even the built in commands like Goodnight and Good Morning, movie mode, work really well and I'm able to add lighting macros to connected items.
I like good morning on GA but it lacks the hardware switches that make bixby unique.

Thank you for this. After killing Bixby in BK can you un-install BK and Bixby will still be gone? Also, if you take a software update will it re-enable Bixby?
