   Tap on "START"

   Move close to the phone. Say your wake-up command four times. In this case, we will say, "Wake up, Galaxy!" That might be something that you don't normally say in everyday conversations.

So let's press start and let's say, "Wake up, Galaxy!" a few times.

   If the phone cannot register your spoken command, you can tap on "TRY AGAIN"

   .

   You will notice that slightly different tones have been used. That is because depending on where you are, who you are with, or what you are doing, you may end up being in a hurry, speaking in a higher or lower tone, speaking in an informal tone, etc. You want to make sure that the command is easily understandable in different situations. The device will inform you: "You can now wake up the device while the screen is locked. To turn this function off, go to S Voice settings and turn off Wake up in secured lock." You will see the list of voice commands that you can use, for example, "Look up James", "Memo: send mom a card", and so on.

My S6 is locked and on voice command by accident, how do I get back to the settings using my voice?

So I selected the change to make my new phone do the voice command, not realizing it would have me go through a process of recording my voice, etc. and decided I needed to complete that at a later time. so it locked, and now I cannot unlock it. I just want to change it back to how it was before. I am unable to get to the settings screen as my phone is locked and will not unlock.
