ICS browser - text-to-speech

umemine — Thu, 11 Oct 2012 20:29:12 GMT

Hello,
I've just updated my Xperia U to ICS through PCC and now, every time I use browser (or chrome), there will be voice that speaks the highlighted text.

Does anyone know how to turn off this feature? I disabled the "TalkBack" accessibility app yet the problem still persists.

Thanks

go to settings > accessibility > talkback should be off

same thing happened to me

what services does it shows up in ur accessibility menu?

like in mine it shows up power toggles...
whatever it shows disable them all

and then restart ur phone

and check if the problem is solved

'install web script' option under accessibility

may be turned on...turning it off (do not allow)

can do the trick..;)

settings > accessibility > Install web scripts
