Voice Announcing Phone Calls? How do I turn that off?

[clemgrad85]

Well.....I must have checked a box for having a voice announce who is calling me on my 1020, and really don't want that. Can someone tell me where I would turn that off? Thanks in advance. I just had the recent software upgrade.

That setting is in "Ease of Access" turn off "Speech for phone accessibility"

By disconnecting any handsfree / headset devices I would assume? WP shouldn't do this without any connected...

go into settings>ease of access> scroll down to speech for phone this is for calls .... go into settings>speech>scroll down to read aloud incoming text for text messages

Excellent! Thanks, that did the trick. That's what I get for clicking on things I don't know exactly what they do. Quite annoying.
