Anybody have any ideas?
I think there is a program in the Market called Alternate Car Home that will allow you to do this.
Awesome! Found it.

So about an hour ago, I pulled my phone out of my pocket and the screen said "car dock mode enabled press --------------"
And I got about that far before it went off. Now I assume it said press so and so button to exit, but I've been screwing around for an hour now and can't get it out.
My phone is now locked into landscape and runs like ****.
Super slow and laggy and has had a few fcs.
Any one know how to turn it off?

Not sure on that app but a quick fix is just to pull the battery and reboot.

Do you have the car dock app installed?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Nope, no car dock app is installed.
Not sure what happened, but it took 3 battery pulls to get back right. Felt like I was using a blackberry again.
I was reading and apparently car dock mode can be activated by crossing two pins on a charge cable with a 619k resistor.
I've been having problems with my charge port lately and wonder if that's part of the problem.

I'm currently waiting on delivery of the D110 HTC car dock. Didn't really do my research thoroughly and only just discovered it doesn't appear possible to change the default navigation app from either HTC locations or google maps. As I have paid for sygic and rate it highly does anyone know of a work around to have it as the default in car mode.
Thanks in advance.

I use CarHome ultra with sygic. I don't have car dock but, CarHome auto launches when my Bluetooth connects to phone. I set it as default app when in car mode so it launches instead of HTC's car

Thanks for the info. I see it has a 30 day trial from play store so I'll give it a bash. Much appreciated
Hi all,
After I've done wireless charging I'm trying to find an app which gonna start full screen clock (e.g. Desk Clock) when charging is started, some kind of app which gonna start another when charging is started. Any ideas 4 that? I'm using stock rom.
Try an app called AutomateIt found free from the play store
I think it's what you might be looking for

Also "no led" app can show clock like you want, maybe using both you can do something
So I installed AutomateIt & Desk Clock and then found auto start when charging in Desk Clock, so... problem solved

For the sake of Pete you would think in 2013 this would work.
Okay, before Jelly Bean I downloaded Headset Controls app and it worked okay. But, I can't get it to do anything now since the update. I don't even see why I would need an app to get this to work.
With my headset plugged in if I do a single click it opens my phone app. The long press opens Google Now(which is fine). With the screen off it doesn't do anything. This is all while playing music from the stock app and Google Music. All I care about doing is skipping tracks and pausing. I hate riding my bike or jogging and stopping to pull out my phone everytime I want to skip a song or pause the music.
I have looked all over the phone in settings, music setting, and google now settings to try and find a way to enable single button music controls. I have tried freezing the apps in Titanium Backup. And as I previously stated, Headset Controls app doesn't work at all now.
I use wireless bluetooth sometimes but the sound is just never as good as wired headsets. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I'm having the same problem where it opens up the phone app except I use power amp. Power amp button settings won't work and neither will my klipsch button settings the klipsch app says playermediabuttonreceiver is interfering with the app I'm just not sure how do disable it

Any idea? it's a pain not being able to switch tracks on a motorcycle
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
No, I wish I had an idea. I even emailed the developer of an app I was using and he had no idea. I feel your pain. My motorcycle is the exact reason this is causing me grief. It might be reason enough for me to switch phones.
If there was one person who hates driving on the planet I am that guy. I rode a bicycle home this morning. I own a golf cart, motorcycle, scooter, and bike. The car is for groceries, kids, ice, and snow...that's it.
So, anyone out there got a solution.

Lol, I was going to suggest trying the Headset Button Controller from the Play store, but I see you already tried it and left a comment stating that it doesn't work on our phone. Using a bit of google-fu, I found thispost on the Android subreddit that requires you to modify a few system files, but I'm unable to try it out as I'm at work right now. Seeing as how you already bought the Headset Button Controller, perhaps you could try it out and report back?
Can't, I am at class. Then I have surgery rotation on the morning.

Fixed! Those permissions got me the fix works perfectly thanks for the link
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for testing it out! I'm about to do the fix and as I'm looking in my system/usr/keylayout folder, I see the generic.kl file but I don't seem to have a sec_jack.kl file. Did you have both files? Did you only alter the generic.kl file?
EDIT: Argh, I went ahead and tried altering just the generic.kl file and am having the same power button issue you were having. What permissions did you change to fix that?
I am a bit confused on what the fix posted above does.

Hey guys, I went to the regular OG forums for help. They might know something we don't. Either that or they will be like "sucks to be you cause mine works fine". We will have to wait and see.

I can't seem to find GPS shortcut for the pull-down menu after I did the KitKat update. Did they remove it or am I just blind and cannot find it?
Its called location. If you don't see that then scroll all the way to the right and click on edit and look for location. If its already checked then try toggling it off and back on
Sent from my LG-LS980 using xda app-developers app
I just figured that out. I really liked having 1 click GPS on and off. Now its 3 clicks. Oh well I guess I'll get used to it.
How is it 3 clicks? Once its on your notification panel you just toggle on/off with one click
Sent from my LG-LS980 using xda app-developers app
Doing that also turns off the cell and Wi-Fi location services. I was just looking for the quick GPS sensor toggle.
Yeah it depends if you want to keep it on a certain mode. Thus far using the battery saving mode has still given me accurate GPS location. I haven't tried using navigation with it though so not sure if that would work just as well or not.
