On the S4 there was a way to change the command from "hi galaxy" to something else. Any idea how to do that on the Note 3? Thanks.

This setting is found in the S Voice program itself. It's found under settings and then Wake Up. Let me know if you cannot find it and I will post further instructions.

Treedabl, please post how because there is no way no change the "Hi Galaxy" wake up command on the Note 3 the way you said. I really want to change it.
 
You have to go into the actual app. You can do it by double-clicking on the home button or by opening the S Voice app from your list of applications. Once there, you should click on botttom left menu button to bring up the menu that contains the settings. The picture shows what needs to be checked to turn it on. Again, let me know if you need more instruction but this should work.

This does not appear to be possible on the Verizon version.

My AT&T version doesn't have it either..... Too bad, would have been fun to amaze my non-smart phone friends with "abracadabra" lol
 
I have Verizon so I know it works. One thing is that you cannot have your screen locked with anything but swipe to unlock as your security. Otherwise, it won't work. I see the picture I was posting didn't show up either.

S Voice works, but as the others have said we cannot change the "Hi Galaxy" wake up command to a different wake up phrase like "Hi Barbara". You could do this with the S4, but not the note 3. The other posters have AT&T, Verizon and I have T Mobile. This is a phone problem not carrier.

I think some are refering to changing the wake up commands like open camera, check messages, etc. But we're stuck saying hi galaxy like an *****. I guess Samsung wanted everyone around you to know you were talking to a Samsung device.

The problem is we both have the same phone. "Hi Galaxy" works at a very far distance so we are constantly setting both phones off. Especially in the car.

Exactly, if you can't put a cool name or an ex-girlfriends name in the phone and tell her to make appointments what fun is that?
 
i went directly into the app and checked all the tabs there is no place to change the wakeup command from HI GALAXY. are there further instructions that we need? thanks for helping out!

It is not possible at this time.
 
I changed it on mine,,EDIT sorry,, I was thinking about my note 2 lol. I forgot I did not do it to this one,, my bad.

THE BEAST,,NOTE 3. SIZE IS EVERYTHING!!!
 
thanks for clearing this up - it was not major at all but frustrating that i couldn't find it - i hope they add it at some point if it is "addable" in an update -
 
That's disappointing. What good are voice commands if I can't act like I'm on Star Trek when I talk to my phone?
