Anyone know how to turn off the setting where the contact name is announced on an incoming call? I can't find it

My phone doesn't do that. I've gotta believe that it's because I "turned off" "Caller Name ID"

Settings>Applications>Application Manager>All Tab>Caller Name ID>Turn Off

Mmm I did the same, and I think that asks you if you want to add someone who you don't have... My phone is actually announcing who is calling and I can't figure out how to turn that off

Either Uncheck Speak Caller ID, or turn TalkBack off completely

Yeah try this man i hope it will help you with this steps.

Yes I did that, surprisingly, still was announcing the caller's name...I have no idea... If everyone else's s5 isn't doing that, and changing the settings doesn't help, then I've got to assume that something is faulty here...

Ok found it... It seems like a bug, if you turn on voice control to answer and end your calls, under call settings, then the TalkBack feature works

I think it will works.. What's model you have used ?

The Verizon one...and no it doesn't... Well it does add contacts when they're not in my contacts already, otherwise it doesn't solve the problem I was having... I've already solved that, which you would have seen if you read the previous posts, it seems to be a bug where if you turn in voice answer and end calls, then it'll also turn on the talk back feature that verbally tells you who us calling
