I don't know what I did, but now, every time I get a text my phone says "So-and-so sent you a text, say "listen" to read aloud". How the heck do I disable this? It's driving me crazy because interrupts my music and I don't need it - this is what text notifications are for.

There's a bug in Moto Assist that enables driving mode sometimes while not driving. If you don't use it while driving, you'd be better off just disabling the driving assist module altogether.
Funny, I can't get mine to read texts and I have it enabled.

Same, so I just disabled all the active stuff on the phone.
It would say "text fro" and cut off, never saying who. I'd say Listen and the device would recognize it, then it wouldn't actually play the msg out loud.

1. Open the Moto Assist app
2. Click the card for "Driving", it expands the card to show you two checkbox options
3. Uncheck "talk to me" to disable completely. Or click the gray arrow next to the text to open more settings for talk-back.

Vm irritates me, I don't have mine set up on purpose. My mom drones on and on and on and... Have you tried an app killer to remove it? You don't have a VM hiding somewhere in there? Can you call customer service, would they be able to tell you if you have a vm hiding in there. My VM icon stays on on my USC work phone. I ignore it. I am sure that is a good fix until I actually get one about the shop being broken into, or on fire.
I would imagine, that customer service should be able to "reset" the system for you, it may just be a glitch.
If you have tried all these ideas, then I have no clue. Maybe Mtmichaelson can make it invisible. It'll still be there, but at least it wouldn't bug you, wouldn't want your story to end up like Poe's "The Telltale Heart"
Visual voicemail or standard (is there a diff?) On my d2 and my dad's dx, if you didn't exit with the star key it would stay on no matter what... could have just been a MOTO thing, worth a shot (unless you already do that... )

I think you're the only one. I might try going into settings, applications, manage applications, find the voicemail app and clear data ...maybe do a force stop.

Ive had the same problem before. I deleted all my VM and the icon would never disappear. Its an annoyance more than anything.
No I haven't figured it out but I don't want to just have it hidden because of work and I actually get voicemails all the time one other thing with that is it always shows 1 new message even if there are more than one

So my mom wanted my music on her phone, so I attempted adding my account to it. Silly me thought I could disable everything but Google Music, but I couldn't, so I took my account off.
But for some reason, whenever she says "Ok Google Now," it says Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening My Name as opposed to Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening Her Name.
I can't for the life of me figure out how to change it back. Everything is on her account, Google Now settings says it's using her account, her account dashboard says her name. Tried clearing cache on touchless control, no dice.
Any suggestions? Thanks!

If you go into the "People" app and click on the top most contact (it should say "ME" as a heading), it probably says your name instead of hers. Change that to hers and it should say the name properly now. Let me know if you need a screenshot, but it's just the top most contact in the list.

Ah! I should have thought of that! Such a simple answer haha. My mom thanks you!
What the??? Mine has never said Good Morning (or anything) back to me at all. Its just silent, and it always annoyed me because I would always miss words when I thought it was listening and it wasn't. I have to look at it to make sure it pulsating circle is active.
It's stock, not rooted. Is there some setting somewhere?

It doesn't say anything, it displays it on the screen. It really should at least make a beep or something. I never know when to start speaking to it.

You can actually speak right after the "OK Google now" phrase, you don't need to pause or wait.

It would be nice if it would use the phonetic name in that Me contact, but it doesn't.

Pretty sure you have volume set on priority only
After some searching around, found it.
It's a lollipop feature called "interruptions" which allows you to decide what app notifications can interrupt you. I had apparently set it to custom. I set the default back and the star disappeared.
By the way, when I say I haven't installed any apps, or I'm confident that it's not my apps, it's not an app.
That is the priority notifications only icon. See here. Check which one you have selected.

It's like an alarm feature. Only notifications from the people you've prioritised will show.

How it works......
You set days and times that you don't want something to happen, phone calls, texts, notifications. Example.... I have mine set for 7 days, 930p-630a, to only allow starred contacts to call or message me. If someone not starred messages or calls me, my phone will not ring, allowing me to watch movies, sleep, whatever, uninterrupted.

Star the contact for your wife, parents, etc., and NOT your boss. Set downtime for nights and weekends. Now your work can't bother you at night or on weekend.

Has anyone seen this App permission monitor pop up while doing something completely normal and keep letting you know every time you use it? For me, I'm using Google Messages as my default SMS app, and this thing pops up telling me "1 apps have been detected using 1 permissions" and lists Messages | SMS.
OBVIOUSLY.
What's even stranger is that I went to app permissions and it says that Messages is authorized for SMS, just like I okay'd it when Messages was set as the default SMS app. What gives? I think this might come in handy when an app goes rogue, using permissions without me saying it was okay to do so, but in this case, it's like saying "water is wet." When you click on the notification, it says that Messages has been using permissions in the background.... What?
Any thoughts on how to okay this with App permission monitor so I can text without this warning all the time (and no, I'm not about to hide notifications of it since it could be helpful in the future).
Go into Settings > Lock Screen and Security > App Permissions Monitor and turn it off.

Not helpful. Please read what I wrote again. I think the app could possibly be useful, but it just needs to be corrected.
You can actually go in and tell it to not report permission uses for specific apps instead of turning it off completely. Instead of clicking the rifle just click on the words so permission monitor and it'll give the full list of apps and you can shut off reporting for apps you trust.

THANK YOU. This is what I was looking for. I didn't know what you were referring to at first, I was just getting the notification because I didn't see it in Settings (there is so much stuff in there now, you just about have to use the search feature for everything these days!), but now that I found it, I clicked on the words, not the toggle switch, and set Messages to NOT monitor. Perfect, thank you.
I am kind of confused. What did you search to make it go away? This is getting so annoying because it is always telling me textra is using SMS and I am not sure what to do to make it stop. Like you I would still like to keep the monitor on I just wish it would stop telling me what I already know.

I was a little confused as well so this is what I did to correct it.
SETTINGS >> LOCK SCREEN AND SECURITY >> APP PERMISSION MONITOR
From there you should go down to the android Messages app and toggle it to off. That will disable giving the warning every time you send a message.
Hope that helps.

You do know they legit just told you how to do it.... you dont have to be mean about it. and then stating "THIS" is what im looking for. Like they told you how to get there, you click the name. if you went onto there to just hit the toggle without looking/investigating around, ie. pressing the section instead, then you arent probably getting the most out of your phones.
I suggest playing around in your settings and everything to get the most out of your phone.
I legit just made this account to tell you this because the person helped you and you seemed to speak rude to them.

I am assuming you are using a 3rd party messaging app from the play store?
I am still getting the notifications even though for instance Contacts is allowed to be used by Android Messages, I get the notification everytime I send or receive a text.
I tried turning the monitor off completely, still getting notifications.
All since I upgraded to a new Samsung patch last night on my S8+.
In fact I got the notification just now after I toggled the setting to off...I checked and the toggle is back on.

Can Not Thank You Enough! I could not figure out how to get that to stop to save me and my OCD couldn't take anymore of those notifications as it was always about my chosen text app. Turning off all didn't work why I didn't think to try just the one is beyond me. So thanks again and this is why I love this Forum!
Just tried to set my alarm clock for the next two hours or so, noting. It keeps pushing for tomorrow's date and plus on top of that the toast message doesn't appear anymore saying " alarm set for 2.4 hours time" .

Works just fine for me. If your clock is 24h make sure you select the right time and not 12 hours out.

My guess would be a Gremlin in the system, it happens on all mobiles. Either that or when you changed mobiles you used your old mobile to copy from or the cloud in which case sometimes things do go wrong.
I was told years ago to always start a fresh with each new mobile. I don't I use Samsung sync but there is ALWAYS some sort of minor **** up and its never perfect. :crying:
Like I wrote sometimes its just down to an odd behaviour...Gremlins as I call it.
I hope you got it sorted?
