Theres a multicolor widget on TW4 that has 3 buttons on one of the screens. They relate to Text to speach while driving, sounds like one of them is on. Hope this helps

It's the driving mode, should be the car icon. Make sure it's off.

If you open Voice Talk, you can uncheck Driving Mode, that will turn off the voice for new notifications.

Even if car mode is off, and "driving mode" is still on in Voice Talk, you will still hear the Siri-esque voice. You have to disable "Driving Mode" from within "Voice Talk" to get her to shut up.

BTW, you can change what she greets you with when you say "Hi Galaxy" in the program settings. Mine says, "What the hell do you want now, John"

That's one thing I thought it sounded like. I stripped some of the Linda sounds from my Vibrant and brought them over to my GS2. I missed them.

I can't stand that voice and all of the texts and plug in sounds. Talk about wanting attention... Lol
