Not sure what happen.  Changed settings on phone.  Now phone will not go to any app. just a voice that will say what app is.  How do I get it back to previous state.

That almost sounds like you turned on the accessibility settings.

Gerio, was that you that figured out how to fix the accessibility options so many months ago??

Goto Settings>> Accessibility >> Uncheck Accessibility

 

Note: You need to double tap each button to trigger them...

Sounds like you went into the settings, the accessibility page, and turned on the accessibility option and the voice read-out. Yuk. And you did this without knowing it??

 

It's very difficult to turn off. I hope someone chimes in with the definitive answer, but go to settings/accessibility and try turning it off. I think you have to press it several time repeatedly and quickly. It's kinda weird and I know it's a pain to turn off for some security reason.

 

Anyone else?

Very off topic, but I have to say I really like your current signature line Gerio. :smileyhappy:

 

"Do not tangle with dragons. For you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup" - unknown

 

Although when I first saw it, I did a double take because it is almost exactly like the first line in a book by one of my favorite authors.  "Be kind to dragons, for thou art crunchy when roasted and taste good with ketchup."  I not sure where she got the line from or if it is an original, but it always brings a smile to my face when I read it. :smileyvery-happy:

Ahhh, that's the line I was trying to remember! I saw it years ago and it recently popped back in my head, but I forgot the original wording.

I probably better keep my version lest I appear to be plagurizing even more so than I already am!
