When it is open press menu and go to options and it will say something about automatic launch, un check that, then if you are rooted get titanium backup and uninstall it from there. Are you having problems with the speaker phone being on every time you make or receive a call? That's my problem and I can't figure out how to stop it.

Me too!!!! Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!
Assuming you mean Car Panel.
Is it docked? If not, you should probably reflash your ROM and if you are restoring using Titanium Backup, don't restore Car Panel or the system data for it.
Car Panel
my evo cm7 wouldnt charge in my car even though the car panel app came up. i uninstalled it through Titanium Backup and now my phone charges!
My wives EVO is having the same issues. It started on FreshRom, so I switched to MikFroyo, and its doing the same thing. Would flashing a new radio have anything to do with it, because FreshRom was fine until a few days ago?

My friend's phone just started doing this. His USB started bugging out at the same time so I'm thinking the two issues might be related.
i fixd the car home thing!
ok.. for those who are seeing car home annoyingly pop up.. here is my solution.
1. extract the zip file that u use to install the google apps on ur computer.
2. once extracted, delete the car home apk found under system>app> carhomegoogle.apk.
3. once deleted, go to the first sub folder in the extrated folder. ( the folder should have two folders in there called META-INF and system)
4. highlight those folders and create a .zip file.
5. rename it something simple ( gapps may work. since your are replacing the original gapps.zip folder)
6. mount on to the root of ur sd card.
this part might sound a bit extreme but this is the only way to make sure..
7. go to ur phone's recovery, and reinstall cm7 and the new google apps.
thats it.
the key here is to delete the car home app from the zip file. since anything inside cant be tampered with,u must extract it and modify it that way. then remake a new .zip file that does not contain car home.
enjoy.
i am now car home free.
for anyone still having this issue, which just started for me this morning, it seems to be a hardware issue not a Software issue. I could fiddle with my USB jack and it would stop for a few then start back up i am guessing mine is worn down and causing it to send a false call for a car dock.
Just look up "Dock no-op" on the market that fixed it for me.
Titanium back up works well too. It's also faster and easier in my opinion.

I am having a problem installing the Amazon Appstore (and the foxfi installer too now that I think about it). I am able to download the APK and run it but once in the program the install button does nothing. I mean I click on it and there is no error message, no program crash, nothing. It's almost like the install button image isn't a button and I'm clicking on nothing. Clicking cancel or show all for the permissions works fine.
I have enabled install from unknown sources and even tried to disable it and try but nothing works. Has anyone encountered anything like this before? TIA for any help.
EDIT: BTW I'm on stock and not rooted.
SOLVED: Thanks to Zerkai it appears that Screen Filter and Screen Adjuster can prevent APKs from installing.
Try to install these apps with an APK Installer. Like the following.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...SwyLDEsImNvbS5wb3RlbnRlLmFway5pbnN0YWxsZXIiXQ..
See if that changes anything.

Just tried that and it is exhibiting the same issue. Called amazon and they hadn't heard of it and had no suggestions on how to fix it. They did mention security apps might be able to block installs and that led me to look at my apps. I did have Norton mobile security installed but stopping it and then even uninstalling it didn't get rid of the issue.
This is really starting to frustrate me.
May sound obvious, but have you tried restarting your phone?
If you were rooted I'd recommend clearing your dalvik and /cache.
One thing you may try is cleaning up your SD card.. Even try renaming the android folder on your sd card. It holds app data for diff apps. you system will recreate it. just delete the recreated on and change the name back after you've tested it.
The only other option (that comes to mind) is a factory reset. I would try the other stuff first. Something is corrupt somewhere.
By any chance are you using, Screen Filter?

I am not, but I did have screen adjuster installed and figured whatever screen filter was doing might be done by screen adjuster. So I uninstalled and guess what it worked now. Thanks a lot Zerkai, you the man.
But wtf would screen filter do that could cause this?
Beats me. Lol. I was baffled when I figured out Screen Filter was the cause. But all is well as long as it's not active. Have a good day!

Old thread. Yes, I know. Came across this thread trying to fix the same issue. The app causing the issue for me was JuiceDefender. I think JD controlling the screen's brightness level was the issue. Anyway, I disabled JD and I was able to access the button.

Install StartupManager from Google Play and Rescan Media Root, open StartupManager and go to system (middle row) and look for Media Storage and disable it. Then open Rescan Root once and close it. That`s it, Samsung media storage sync (also on boot) is now disabled and is taken over by Rescan. This should solve the problem. Problem also occured on the S3 and this how i solved it.

Basically everything that had samsung in it, but also a lot of other stuff. Here's a screen of the stuff I think causes it:
http://i.imgur.com/3dCVf.png
But I also switched off a ****load of other apps I don't see the need in having boot up with the device, this is for example a part of it:
http://i.imgur.com/KJlkd.png
(btw I only use gmail, so e-mail app is not useful for me)
You might want to keep camera enabled though for faster launching.
Remember, all the stuff you disable at launch still works perfectly, you only have to click it before it starts.
I don't know about startup manager, I use LBE because it also does permission control.

and now "media" eats my battery more than screen
I posted this question in the correct thread for the ROM I'm using in my signature (also note I'm using the newest version of the KT747 kernel as well), but people are currently more interested in hearing themselves talk on that thread, calling people trolls when the "troll" is actually helping answer questions, and just waste space with non-development chit-chat.... So maybe asking it here will get an answer!
I'm getting a partial wakelock constantly from LPAPlayer, a low power audio player that supposedly gets installed or screwed up when you install AwesomeBeats, but I never had that installed and can't seem how to disable or fix the issue with LPAPlayer eating up the battery, making the CPU run at max while the screen is off....
Anyone got any ideas or suggestions? Thanks!

I've been on this since about 2 days after it came out never had a problem. The all of a sudden it started 2 days ago. I haven't installed anything new and haven't made any substantial changes. The only media players I use are play and Pandora.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
Just to add in to what Travis has been saying, and it all applies the same for me too, I just reflashed the device with the same ROM, but wiped everything first, including System.... Because these aren't official JB ROMs, I'm not spending too much time getting everything set up on the device right now, so when I wipe, I restore data from a previous backup, and while I'm sure that's not helping anything, there has to be a way to prevent LPAPlayer from using up so much battery!

Well one thing I know for sure is that we have the same exact nonofficial JB rom installed (lol) and that I do not have the LPAPlayer issue, nor could I find it installed. Travis says that he uses Google Play Music and Pandora, so maybe it has to do with one of the two. Try using Titanium and freezing these two apps and see if it fixes your battery drain.
I know it isn't Pandora, I don't use it or even have it installed on my phone.... I could see it having to do something with Google Music, I use that constantly while driving. Won't be in the car tomorrow so I'll freeze it tonight and see if anything gets better, one can only hope when no real solutions are being presented!
STILL having the issue, Pandora and GMusic are NOT the issue (as far as I can tell....)
Here's a guy having the same issues too, found that Awesome Beats was the recommendation, and never installed it either, still no resolution for him:

Looks like the only solution is to wipe and reinstall everything with TiBU, hoping that the issue isn't stuck in one of my user apps and just the data I'm restoring after every time I wipe....

On there, it said to disable LPAPlayer, set lpa.decode=false in build.prop, under System, using Root Explorer, or similar. I like Root Explorer because when you select R/W at the top, press and hold on build.prop, select Open in Text Editor, you can hit the Menu button and Save and Exit while Root Explorer automatically saves the original as a backup, using .BAK. If you're unfamiliar with Root Explorer or need more instructions, let me know, I need others to test this OR see if your lpa.decode setting was already set to false! Mine WAS set to true before I edited it, rebooted, and now I'm testing to see if it works.... after 14 mins, I'm seeing a deep sleep of 5 mins so far, so it may have worked!!! There isn't any mention of any partial wakelocks from LPAPlayer right now either!

Also started noticing this issue on my Sprint GS3, while playing Google Music, as that is the only music player I have, and have not installed any other apps, like Beats, or the like. Via Betterbatterystats I would see that anytime I'd play/use Google Music, LPAPlayer would keep the phone awake, even if I forced closed the Google Music app. Only way to stop it from keeping the phone awake was to reboot my phone, which was a pain since I use it to stream music all day. Anyone know what LPAPlayer is for, where it's located? I can't find much info on it. I'm going to try the above and edit the build.prop entry, as mine was set to true, and report what I get! Thanks!

Yep, same issue I had too - someone must have edited the build.prop on us in a ROM or something to have that effect on different carrier's SGSIII's.... I've seen MUCH better battery life out of my phone since then, with the only wakelock coming in the form of Light Manager, but everyone who uses LightFlow / Light Manager for their LED notifications complain about poor battery life from wakelocks, so there's nothing I can do with that right now!

I was getting wakelock from LPAPlayer too (on sprint gsIII). Yesterday was the first day i noticed the poor battery like. About two days ago for the first time, i installed lightflow just to check it out. I immediately uninstalled it cause i don't really have a use for the app. I just now looked in betterbatterystats and found it was LPAPlayer. Do you think that app is causing the issue then?

It's possible, but probably not likely.... I know I had Lightflow installed as well and uninstalled it to use Light Manager instead (Lightflow was causing a separate battery drain not associated with LPAPlayer, from what I understand), but I think that's just coincidence that we both had it installed at one point and it changed the settings to enable LPAPlayer....
I am/was having the same issue. I only saw LpaPlayer giving my phone a partial wake after using Google Play Music. I changed the build.prop as suggested and it looks like that fixed the problem. Thanks
sorry for bumping a month old thread but i've noticed this issue as well. Google music would also freeze up on me. Rather annoying. Let's see if editing build.prop fixes it

Just want to say THANK YOU for this post. AT&T GS3 here stock rom 4.1.2 and rooted. This fixed the lpaplayer wakelock for me. I used Root Browser to change the setting and then restarted. Noticeable improvement in battery life as a result.
Completely stock 4.16.401.10
Whenever I reboot my phone, any apps that I've, previously, moved to the external sd card disappear from the homescreen.
The apps are still in app drawer and run ok, but I've got to drag them back to the homescreen.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks.
PS, no issues with pics or any other "stuff" stored on card.
I've no solution. Just to say I'm having the same issue

Don't know if this cured it but it doesn't do it now. I moved all my apps to internal storage because I was, also, having issues when updating apps stored on external card.
Moving apps to internal solved the updating issues and nothing disappears from home screen on reboot.
Might be a coincidence but no issues now.
I had the same problem, but found the issue. Latest HTC Lock Screen update is the culprit. Uninstall update from HTC Lock Screen and your problem will be gone.
