So, as many people here, I have been experiencing lag with the new firmware update. It bothered me, but not to the point where my device became unusable. However, today morning when I woke up, my phone was making bricks through its rear end. Here is the problem:
A female voice started to narrate every finger tap I perform without executing it. (e.g. I tap "Google Chrome" - the female voice will say 'Chrome" but Chrome will not open).
I cannot swipe left or right (because the voice is narrating every touch instead of registering swiping motion it will just register as taps through all the applications i have on my home screen)
I cannot unlock the phone if I turn off the screen because the female voice will just say "unlock screen, swipe up or down to unlock"
This prevents me from answering calls as well.
I performed many "hard resets" through the off button under the rear protective case but to no avail. "The Voice" comes back after a few moments on startup so that's sadly useless.
Basically my phone became a self absorbed piece of food after the latter finishes its cycle through the digestive tract.
Im currently in the process of rolling back in firmware with SUS but I would like to hear your opinion on this. I dont know if the firmware update is linked to my problem. It would be interesting to know what happened to my phone because nor have I ever activated a "slightly less than stable voice to narrate what I click without possibility of doing anything about it" option nor have I even seen one on SP. Virus? Glitch? AI? Aliens? Illuminati? Who knows. I just know that it's as annoying as a diety's damnation.
Solved! Go to Solution.
I know that it is solved but... Soome days ago I downloaded Greenify. I´m not root, and to hibernate apps, greenify uses a feature like talkback. You have an option in settings if you are having random talks with greenify.
I'm curious as to how you managed to disable that.
When I bought my Z2 and switched the phone for the first time at the shop, the talkback feature is active. And there's no way to disable it cuz I can't even get to Settings. Even the seller got so frustrated that they had get me a new box to replace it. It was funny and frustrating as well. So I'm really curious how you did that.
you must double tap on anything and use 2finger for scrolling the secrets is it!
secret's finally out. thanx!
