Its the stock app. After the update, my calculator started saying the numbers I press. It's very annoying.

The 65MB update? I've done this and my calc doesn't talk. I would check the Language and Input options, and the accessibility options.

I've checked, talkback is off. Nothing either in the language and Input. I can't figure it out.

Problem with that is you can't use it in pop up. Which I need for work. Main reason I buy devices with multi task/window. Hopefully someone will figure it out.
My calculator is not talking to me.
Something wrong with mine

I've been able to somewhat narrow it down on my phone. I have accessibility turned on for both Pebble & Lastpass. If I turn both of those off my calculator will stop talking. Turn them back on & it's back at it

Root your device and use wanam xposed to include any and all apps in multi window.

Ya I usually root my devices but I usually wait a couple weeks before doing so. But with no lag finally on a Samsung device in not sure if I will. Even though I probably will[emoji2]
Turned lastpass off and stopped talking. #confirmed
Turned off accessibility to augmented pro and calc stopped talking.
Don't have people or last pass and its still talking. Also other people reporting this issue are having problems with the s voice voice feedback greyed out in s voice settings. Turned out it was greenify for me. Uninstalled and calculator stopped talking and svoice started to. Hope this helps someone.
I had the same problem and have fixed it. I just went into applications
manager and force stopped Samsung text-to-speech engine. The calculator is no longer talking back to me. :good:
Yeah I have that problem too. I have tried everything mentioned here and it still keeps talking. It is not usable this way.
Update. Found out the problem. I am using the LG Bluetooth headphones and the BT reader app. I had to go in to accessibility and under services turn off the BT reader.
Not so sure what is the reason. I have to reinstall bixby from apkmirror to get it back. But can not find weather widget.....:crying:

LOL, you are one of the first people I've ever seen that actually wants Bixby back. ? Can't help with the weather though since I don't use Bixby. Did you get the latest version they had?

I do not like bixby.. but I want to remap the bixby button... Then I realized the key does not work until I reinstall it..
Have you by any chance installed a device owner application prior to the update? (For example SecureTask.) That is a suspect of mine for the culprit.
In the mean time you can also use galaxy-apps.en.uptodown.com/android as a samsung application store.

Google Messages v--4.1.067 (Ettin_RC12_xxhdpi.arm64-v8a.phone) on Galaxy S10
When I open a chat with a person and tap on the "write a message" text box, instead of the text box coming up simply, the text box comes up AND it gives me the option tray of copy, paste, web search, etc. This is the thing you usually get if you double tap or press and hold. I'm getting it with a single tap and it's kinda annoying. Can anyone reproduce this? Any idea for a fix?
I have the same issue, pops up on both the stock messaging app AND google messages.
This is an issue with the March Security update or at least I hope it's an issue and not something new. I've made a post about it in the S10+ forum but haven't seen many responses to it. For me it happened every time I touched in a text field to bring up the keyboard. I know 2 other people that have the same issue after updating as well. I've rolled back to the February patch for now as it was pretty annoying for me.

Thank goodness, I thought I was the only one experiencing this. It is quite annoying.
So I've been digging into this a little and it appears to be a bug with Samsung's Clipboard History service. I can't figure out how to disable it. I tried disabling a few things using ADB with no luck. If you go into your clipboard history and "Delete All" it will no longer be an issue. I don't know if anyone knows how, but if there's a non-root method to remove Samsung's clipboard service it'll 'fix' the issue for now.

Clipboardsaveservice could be disabled with Package Disabler Pro, maybe that would do it.

Sadly I already disabled it using ADB method to no avail. I mean I could give it a try though. I'd have to re-enable it and see if it stops it.

If I delete all the clipboard, I still get a pop-up with the "auto fill" option.
I too have heard that this is a problem with the March update. I hope it's a problem as well, and not a feature.

Yeah, I discovered this shortly after my post. I wasn't using the autofill service at first. But if you get rid of your password autofill service it'll go away lol. General Management > Language and Input > Autofill Service and set it to "None". This is a work around, but Dashlane people don't have to use the autofill service.
Its a sh itty work around but whatever. I can't figure it out. I hope it's fixed in April update.

So now I'm on the April update, and I still have the same issue with the Google Messages app. I DO NOT have the issue with the stock Samsung Messages app.
Can anyone confirm? Also, is this a Google Messages app issue at the moment? A feature?
Does anyone have a version of Google Messages that doesn't do this? I can revert back.

Does this happen any where else besides the message app? I was having this issue in any text field that required me to tap in it to bring up the keyboard. I tried both Gboatd and Samsung keyboards and they both did the same. Can't remember if I tried the stock message app or not. I've rolled back to the Feb patch and will keep ignoring the update until it's fixed.

Yeah only in Google Messages for me. Telgram X and Signal work just fine.
This is super annoying. I just wish I could know if this is a software issue or a messages app issue.

Wait you don't have this issue? That's good! Can you please share your software update patch level and Google Messages version?
Also do you use Gboard?

No I don't use Gboard. I just realized my phone sort of does this but I never knew it. The first thing I do when I get a phone is remove the Samsung dialer, messages, etc, and install Google Dialer and messenges. Up till I played around with it upon reading your post I never touched the message area before starting to type, I've never had to. For the heck of it this morning, I touched that area and the paste clipboard pop-up appeared. Like I said, I never see that because I just start typing and never saw it that way.
This has been from the first time I used the phone on the original software.

When I open a chat the keyboard is hidden and I have to press on the text box to bring up the keyboard.
Is yours different? Do you somehow have the keyboard up and running when you open a chat? If yes, how?

I've always used SwiftKey and it pops up when I touch Start Chat.

I just downloaded SwiftKey and no difference.
When I open Google Messages and tap on a chat to open, it opens the chat with the keyboard hidden. I have to tap on the text box at the bottom of the page to activate the keyboard. Gboard, Samsung keyboard, and SwiftKey have the same behavior.
When I bought the device I checked to make sure there was no Facebook bundled into the OS. I bought the P30 Pro in Hong Kong. Upon leaving later I checked my apps and Facebook appeared with no uninstall option. WTF? I did not download or install Facebook on it and checked to make sure that when I bought it that it did not have Facebook on it.
More info can be seen here..

Huawei is either dishonest with uninstall option or someone is really stupid doing the programming. See link above for more info. If you uninstall something it should not be able to come back period. If I the garbage was thrown away outside in the garbage dumpster I should not see it back in my house again and if I deleted,uninstalled or had the app thrown away it should not pop back on again in my smartphone. I have never deleted an app in my iPhone only to see it after present in my app list Did Facebook pay Huawei money to make sure it can not be uninstalled? Why is it that in the actually Google App Play Store it can only be disabled but in the Huawei App Store it can be deleted only to then pop back up again when Huawei app is disabled?
This is not the Facebook App, this is Facebook services. It was there from the beginning, same as with the P20 Pro before. You can uninstall it easily via ADB.

Isn't Root required to use ADB?
A simple Google search can guide you on how to remove it via ADB. Facebook and it's framework services are bundled in almost every global version phones now. I had it in my S10 plus as well. Just disable them if you don't want to remove it.
No root required

That looks a bit complicated..
We already know that anything related to Facebook and disable is useless. If it can not be uninstalled then something is up.
I just watched the video you linked. If you go to the 1 minute and 30 second mark you will hear that he says we are not actually uninstalling the app but are hiding it from the user which is exactly what the Huawei Gallery app did.
It‘s not complicated. And you are not disabling it, you are UNINSTALLING it with adb FROM THE CURRENT USER. That means it is not removed from the device but uninstalled for your user account. Like windows can do, or mac os. No more facebook services, then, unless you reset or install a major update.

Will it work with a MacBook Pro or do you have to have a Windows based laptop to work?
It works fine on the mac, I am a mac user myself.
Will try to see how I can get it to work on my Mac but as of now it manages to pop back up again which is not good.

Not sure why its popping back on yours, never had any issue on mine after removing it and all its services via adb. Even after so many updates (currently on .153) , it never came back.

I think I know why. I updated to the newer firmware version. I downloaded and updated to the newest version and I think after I downloaded and updated it brought back the Facebook apps.

If you only disabled it then yeah , it probably returned after the update. If you remove it via adb, then it won't come back. Facebook and its services are standard now in most of the phones not only huawei.
I wonder how much money Facebook paid Huawei? for additional Spyware to be built into their OS with no straight out uninstall option for end users ?

I just bought it, no plans to sell it yet. Not a cheap smartphone. You could buy one online though. I picked mine up in Hong Kong. For about $7K HKD (just under that).
I'm getting annoyed by these notification popups in the Samsung browser. Is there a way to turn these off?
I'm talking about these:
>Settings>Sites and downloads>Notifications> Allow or block sites is turned off
Is there a way to stop these popups completely without having to make a blocklist?
Like on IOS you can turn it off and you wont ever get notified by any site.
The only way I know how is to goto the Google Play store and download the Google Chrome app.

But thanks to you I saw that "change system setttings" was turned on, turned that off so lets hope that does something.:good:
