HandsFree Text to Speech = Answering By Mistake - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When the Note 3 is set to Car Mode, it will automatically guide the user by playing the following message on speaker like "To Answer the call Say ANSWER or to reject say Reject".
But because it's played thru the speaker instead of my Headset (WHY???!?!!?!?) the headset can hear the word "Answer" and thus cause the phone to accept the call.

Getting Skype To Use Phone Speaker rather than PDA Speaker

Hello
I have an XDAIIi and am using skype. Ive found that skype outputs to the main pda speaker, not the phone speaeker, and the quality is not a good as the phone one and of course everyone can hear your conversation.
Is there anything I can do or do we have to wait for skype to support this (if they even can?)
Are there any other applications that manage to use the phone speaker?
Thanks for any feedback
Brian
Hi Brian,
I have a Skype with my XDA2i as well & if someone calls me, my XDA's earpiece was the default. If I want to use my XDA's speakerphone (handsfree or where everybody can hear the caller), all I did was to press & hold the "call" button (they also call this as "send" button, the one you press when you answer a phone call) for around 3 seconds. If I want to deactivate the speakerphone, I press the same button for about 3 seconds.
Hold & pressing "call" button for about 3 seconds will activate/deactivate speakerphone. If you still have the XDA2i user manual, kindly check page 48.
I hope this will help you.

you mean your skype can actually work with the earpiece or you mean normal telephone call works by default with the earpiece?
Vmirage & Brian,
I'm so sorry & it was my mistake. I did not realize what I'm typing a while ago. No, you cannot use XDA2i earpiece while on call, the default is the speakerphone (PDA's speaker). Instead, I use my XDA's earphone to have a privacy while on Skype's voice call.
I got mixed up with a normal call & the Skype's voice call.
Again, my apologies.

Have you tried this?
From the authors website
Please, don't even try to run it on other PDAs - it's absolutely pointless
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
So no I didn't bother
try your BT headset, as IIi support audio gateway. just press the answer button on your BT headset & the sound will be rerouted.
unfortunatly I don't have a headset and really just want to use the phone as normal

How to let thw person phoning me listen to my ringtone

Dear all,
Is it possible to configure my XDA Exec such that the persons ringing me can hear my MP3 ringtone as well ?
Thanks
ringtone
ummm, i don't think that is possible, but here, tmobile US has this thing called caller tunes, where you set your account to play a song instead of the pulsing ringing sound when someone is calling you.
In israel we have the same thing,
In israel we have the same thing,
HOWEVER - technically you could do it:
its like a fax machine when it picks up and hears its not a fax call:
it answers, and other side hears a "still no answer" tone and the fax still rings.
you have to write a program that answers the second the call is recieved, starts an mp3 program with a file, and your phone is on mute,
and upon pressing "send" key un-mutes your phone and stops the music.
just dont forget to tell program to hangup after a minute or so
BUT - you have to check when you are on the phone with some 1 and you play an mp3 on WMP or other player - if the other side hears the music while he's muted.
would be a really good idea !
If all you want to do is let them hear it while talking to them, you could get them on the phone and go into phone settings and click play next to the ringtone. They would hear it by proxy so to speak.

You could always learn how to duplicate noises using your mouth. You know, like that dude off Police Academy.
HTH
I had something like that on my old Sony J5 mobile phone from a few years ago, an answerphone built into it onto which you could record any answerphone message you wanted.
It is possible. Had a girlfriend once whose phone did that. T-mobile UK and a one-off fee. Cant remember how much though.
I had it also, was totally crap as I had one hell of a lot of missed calls, people would call, it would start ringing, they'd go "What the f....." and hang up!!
It was useful, you could hear them but they could only hear the soundeffect/answerphone phone message, not the microphone, so you could interrupt it if you wanted to talk to them and if not they believed it was just an answerphone.
MP3 caller tune
Dear all, Thank you all for your comments and suggestions, etc.
What I mean is something just mentioned in this post, called caller tune.
Basically, what I want is: the caller can hear MP3 from my phone instead of that boring "pulsed ringing" before I answer the call.
i dont think that will be possible, surlly thats the phone companies ownership
Of course its possible - answer the phone the second it rings, and hold it near your stereo ;o)

Disable incoming call Auto Wake Up?

I had this same issue with new SMS and solved it by making some dword on the registry.
However, now I seem to have the exact same problem with incoming calls.
I put my headphones on and listen to music.
I get an incoming call.
Answer it by pressing the button on the headset without looking at the phone.
Finish talking on the phone, call ends, music resumes.
Then, the phone is woken up and is playing around inside the pocket.
Suddenly the phone calls someone.
Not only that it opens up some programs etc.
How do I leave the screen off when I answer an incoming call?
Or, is there a way to lock it again when the call ends?
I guess I need to have the phone wake up when call comes in as I would want to see who's calling sometimes (when not listening to music).

[Q] Phone answers calls in Speaker phone mode!!! what the...

Every call i made or answered today, it automatically does so in speaker phone mode. For example: i get a call and the phone answers it on speaker and everyone can hear the caller. Any ideas? thanks
If you have visual voicemail try opening that and playing a message but change it from speaker mode into handset mode then try making a call and see if that works.

[Q] Sound disappears from BT-Headset and goes (routes) to the phone while calling

Hello. Sorry my English.
Hardware: Samsung Galaxy S5 Duos (KitKat 4.4.2 ANJ1 stock rooted), Plantronics Voyager Bluetooth Headset, Jabra Clear BT Headset. From november 2014 to may 2015 all was great, but suddenly I got a problem with the BT on my phone.
The problem is: in outcoming call: 1) I dial a number and begin a call 2) the call's sounds routed to a headset 3) When I hear "Allo" , the sound in headset suddenly goes to a phone's voice speakerphone, and BT-headset loses sound 4) sometimes sound and voice goes to phone while dialing a number or after some words from my friend that I called. The problem occurs completely at random, it can happen on the 1st time I dial or the 10th time, for example, or just every call. In incoming calls: 1) I receive a call with BT-Headset (push a button on it), firstly voice comes to BT-Headset, but it can disappears after some words from me or my friend.
When the sound disappears, I find that the BT-connection stays alive , and my S5 obeys the headset buttons commands (when I pressed the button on headset, the call disconnects. So, Galaxy S5 obeys the command from BT-Headset and BT connection stays alive while calling, but sound may disappears suddenly, and I must take my phone to the ear to complete a call. Both mic and voice sound goes from BT-headset to the phone's speakerphone. But I finde a feature: After sound disappears - when I double pressed the BT-button in the call window (off and on again bluetooth audio call channel), the sound brings back to the headset!!! So, I think, that the call app loses the sound from BT-Headset and suddenly routes it to the phone, but why?
I used a stock ANJ1 rooted for 6 month ago and had no problem, my apps setup didn't change for 6 month I owned a phone. Something happens, but what? How can I trace or parse the app that causes this problem? I think, one app from my setup trying to control the voice, so it disappears. Any suggestion?
What I tried: wipe phone and write the ANJ1 from Odin (BT works on the stock without apps), after this I bring back my backups from Titanium Backup (just user apps and data). I have Smart Booster and AFWall+ (android firewall - with my own rules), and have the EnhancedSMS and Caller ID. Freezes AFWall+ and SmartBooster - no changes, sound disappears. Any saggestions, please?
