How to be notified by voice of the details of incoming calls, texts, email and notifications.

Hi I have just bought a SP. Great phone but two things I would like help with.

1 How to be notified by voice of the details of incoming calls, texts, email and notifications. Not to the extent of talkback which drives me crazy. My old galaxy SI & Sii Plus had a "drive mode" is there something similar I have missed?

2. Can the colour scheme of "Phone/Contacts" be changed. The Fine black on white is terrible to read.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Check the playstore there might be an app

2. you can't change it unless you download a different phone app

Thank you.

Found an App "Call Announce" seems to do the job well.

No I tried it before I started the posting. No text to speech.
