Hi!
Since Monday, whenever I am making a call with my headset and an email comes through, the sender and subject line is read to me.
I am running a jailbroken iPhone 4 on 5.0.1. As far as I know I haven't 'selected' anything new. It is so annoying when this happens right in the middle of my phonecalls. Happens while using Skype too.

Help please ;).

You don't happen to have Aloud installed, do you?

Hi Massie!
Nope, don't have that one. I just got another email and it was read to me?? I don't use my headset all that much so am just noticing this 'feature'. I know I must have changed something somewhere for the phone to start behaving this way?!

Hi D!
Nope, don't have that one either :(.

Good morning, my friend. I've gone through every setting on my device and I've even experimented with a couple of the accessibility options - specifically, "speak selection" and "speak auto-text" but I was unable to reproduce your situation. Of course, my device isn't jailbroken so I'm a tad limited in that respect. What kind of headset are you using? I wonder if it has a built-in setting that enables what you're experiencing.

If you go into Settings, General, Accessibility, do you have Speak Auto Text or Voice Over turned on?

I thought the same thing so checked there right away ... Nada!
I really don't get it. I haven't installed anything lately so don't understand the sudden change. It'a driving me batty :(.

Did you select Voice Over mode?

Nope?! Get this, my sister told me yesterday that it's doing the same thing to her on her jailbroken 4s running 5.1.1? We also use the same brand of headset (a-Jays Four). I have given up. Just gotta live with it I guess (shrugs shoulders).
Thanks for the help :).

Only when you have the headset on? Have you tried a different headset? Possibly the stock apple ones?

Two more questions: do you use anything besides the built-in Mail app with mail? For instance, a gmail app, Sparrow, etc. And could we get a list of your Cydia installs?

Hi! I use Mail Enhancer Pro. It'll take me a bit to get the package installs since I have so many ...
