Hi,
Not sure if it is something I did or if this is a feature, but I appear to have thins read to me like "page loading", "loaded" etc in the web browser.
This is a nice feature, but how do I switch this off as it can get annoying...
Turn off TalkBack Service under settings->My device-> Accessibility
Also I have realized that if you use Light Flow it asks you to enable it (Light Flow) in Accessibility menu and if you do then it says the TalkBack service also has to be enabled. Don't know if there is any other way.
I managed to resolve this...
Talkback was always disabled, but for some reason MissedIt (which I have installed) and was "on" was causing the Internet speech.
I disabled MissedIt and it is now OK.

i have everything disabled in google voice, do not use for all calls, do not refresh, do not notify.
why does google voice insist that it still needs to run in the background?
is there a way to disable this?
and also, the same thing applies to mobile defense. i see it running few times per day. seriously?

I think because Google Voice is a messaging application as well. It uses text messaging just like mail, so it syncs every so often.
I would set up an auto task kill.

What do you use it for then? Why not just uninstall it if you dont use it for calls or texts
because i dont use it all the time.
if i receive a text message from google voice, i'll fire up the app. and i have the toggle on my desktop for when i need to make an international call.
The Google Voice application is a resource hog. It will consistently process background data. You could disable "background data" usage from your device settings. Although that may interfere w/ automatic procedures that Google Voice services provide.
Hardly anyone I know uses Google applications other than the obvious ones. They all open up too frequently to utilize background data for updates and information between servers.
Does anyone know how to disable the Google Voice integration?
Right now the phone is set on using Google Voice by default and I cannot access the Google Voice icon nor change the settings when placing a call.
Thanks.
What do you mean you can't access the Google Voice Icon? If you mean that you can't find it, just type voice into the search box and it will bring it up.
Once you are in the app, press the menu button at the bottom of the screen and choose settings. Then choose the Making Calls option to change it.
Google voice icon and restoration
I mean exactly what I meant: the Google voice icon disappeared and there was no way to either launch it or reinstall it.
This is what I did to fix it: I did a clean phone from the bootloader and then I set Google Voice differently. I can now see the icon.
Just an FYI I think you can also change all of these settings by logging onto to https://www.google.com/voice

I'm guessing English is not your first language because you first appear to be asking how to disable Google Voice, then say you cannot find the icon, and your fix is even more confusing, saying you cleaned the phone from bootloader and set GVoice differently. Vague. And this whole thread is pointless.
Brand new S5.
I have dragon mobile assistant on my phone and want to use it as my default device.
I had previously used S-Voice as my default, so I installed dragon mobile assistant, went into default applications and cleared S-Voice, and lo and behold when I hit the button on my BT headset it popped up a prompt for which program I want to use. I chose dragon and set it to use always.
At this point everything is working perfectly.
Google search updates(including the new google now launcher), and suddenly every time I hit the button on my BT headset it opens the google app instead of Dragon.
I check the default applications and Dragon is still listed as the default.
I went into Apps and cleared all the data and cache from the google search(defaults was greyed out), and went through all the other google apps as well and I cannot find any way to get it to allow me to set my default application. The new google search app overtakes all others and does not give me the option to get stop it. The only thing I can do is disable the google search app, and that disables all of the google now functionality, etc.
How do I set my default application for the voice dial and BT trigger?

Hi.
first of all sorry for my english, i'm from italy and i didn't use it for long time.
What's the question? on my galaxy s8 i don't understand how to disable "ok google" in app. The always listening is successfully disabled, so (for example) if i'm on facebook and i say "ok google".. nothing happen. But if i'm on the homescreen with the searchbar widget and i say "ok google" the voice search is activated. The same happen when i'm in the application of google.
I disabled all, the guide of google itself is different by my menu of the google application: it says go on settings>voice>Ok google detection> disable "from the google app" but on my phone i don't have the setting "from the google app"! how can i do? i Want to disable it. Help.
Thanks you

I am not using "Ok Google". Have you tried to disable Google app? Swipe up from the homescreen, find google app, tap and hold the shortcut and then when context menu appears, tap "disable". If you don't want to disable, then you can clear data of google app.
on the S8 you can go to settings -> General Management -> Language and input -> on screen keyboard -> google voice typing -> Voice Match -> turn of "ok google"
Still not disabling it in the widget on the main screen. Still activates when I say it.

Think I figured it. I don't have the Google widget but mine device would still respond to me saying Ok Google on the home screen , even if I turned off Google voice assistant.
I had to turn off / pause voice control.
Google assistant settings then phone then top right corner Google activity control. Then pause voice and audio activity. Once I rebooted after that I received a notification that I had unenrolled in the service.
Hello to everyone!
After installing the latest available official version of PIE 10 rom on Redmi note 7 i discovered that in messaging application s such as Telegram, Facebook messenger, Viber - main microphone is not working. Person cannot hear me but in normal calls everything is working fine.
On 4PDA was found a temporary solution which is useful but it doesn't help me to fix the issue.
Workaround is - turn off the access to microphone for Google application and reboot device.
Maybe anyone already facing the same issue and know another solution how to fix microphone issue ?
Solution founded.
I tried to play with Google application setting but before changing settings I remove (disable) application from Google play store, clean cache, reboot. Install application with last updates, turn on Google assistant and voice matching. (Google app - Settings - Google assistant - Assistant - My device (on the bottom of screen), Voice match - on.
I have the same issue.

Try to check if the Google assistant and voice match is turned on. If it's turned off - turn on this function, reboot phone and check if the mic starts working in messangers

Where is the option to turn them on? When i tap Voice match in assistant settings, it tells me to add a device like Google home or something.
