Answer phone, auto to speaker - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Every time I answer my G2 its automatically put on speaker phone... not a huge problem but sometimes annoying when trying to answer phone quietly or while at work. I can't use search at moment as my bro is using computer for something so I thought is ask here.
And no I don't just have an Atrix, I also have a G2.

you can try clearing data in dialer or look for a setting there that is checked that shouldn't be. sounds rom specific so flashing a new one after a full wipe should cure this fine

Did full wipe and flashed newer CM7 and that did nothing for me. I will trying clearing data in dialer as well as looking through some settings.
Any other suggestions?

Car panel activating itself

OK so I've had my EVO roughly 3 months. The past couple of weeks the Car Panel app comes on whenever I plug my phone to the charger. I have no clue as to why this could be happening. I'm using Sprint's charger and their 2200mah extended battery if that matters. Any help would be awesome.

First of all Welcome! I actually recently seen someone facing this same issue lately. One user suggested cleaning your USB port, since that's simple, clean it good and pick it with a toothpick or something. Next, you could try uninstalling car panel.
mine just started doing it today... very annoying
Mine did the same thing a while back. I tried cleaning the USB port, it didn't help. I took it to Sprint, they cleaned it again & did a factory reset. I haven't had the problem since, I'm not sure which fixed it, but it's fixed.

Yes it's extremely annoying!!
Thanks for the welcome! And no luck with cleaning it, it still pops up. As for deleting it, it's a stock app. I'm not rooted so that's not an option, unfortunately.

If not rooted master reset, if yes remove it. Does anyone even use that?

Hey there. I remember I had the same exact problem a while ago. I think I was on a CM build but can't remember which one. I think I attempted to delete the app with Titanium but for some reason the app would still keep popping back up...like a horror movie character.
I think what finally got it resolved was going into recovery and wiping the Dalvik and regular cache and then reflashing the CM rom/GAAPS
I figured out a solution!!! So simple, I feel like a moron not seeing it a lot sooner. LOL. I simply went into the settings menu within the app & unchecked auto-display, therefore the app has to be manually "turned on"

Now I can't access emails, the market or anything Google
Browser works and xda and settings are working right
Sent from my Desire HD using xda premium
Do a full wipe again, if you get access to the market anytime soon download lookout and let it scan your phone. But best bet start from scratch

Weird Vibrations

I have a weird problem with my phone. Every so often, my phone wjll vibrate twice, in two really short bursts that arent powerful at all. It is completely random. And whenever im playing music, it will stop the music for 5 seconds. If anyone knows what this is it would be greatly appreciated because this is happening on my new phone, as well as my last two galaxy s 2's (ive gotten 3 replacements)

What apps do you have that give off frequent notification? Do you have facebook, friendcaster, word w/f, etc.? Can you give us a small run down?
you can also download betterbatterystats (free here on XDA) and look at what frequently runs perhaps it appears as a wakelock.
or you can always look at logcat

It's a kernel crash. It's a part of android. It usually happens to let you know that it crashed but android reloads where it last left off. Hence the reason for the gap in music. If you press home immediately after you will catch it trying to finish reloading.

Try running master's kernel cleanser and reinstalling the kernel, that's a place to start

You will have to root first... Unless someone with more experience chimes in with a different idea

Is the same app running every time it happens? It may be a 3rd party app that isn't completely compatible running on your phone. Try deleting any third party widgeta.. then going into your task manager and clearing your memory. Then add one widget at at time til it starts doing it. If it doesn't do it, then open one of your e eryday apps at a time till you have the vibrating again. You may find some crappy lil app that you installed is causing all the problems.

Strange effects after ending a call

Sometimes having weird stuff happening after i end a call: goes to some random contact in edit mode / dropbox app opens / etc
Tested carefully and it's not due to accidental touches around the "end call" button, it even did it once or twice without me ending the call...call ended by the other side, calling screen got closed and some contact popped out.
happens rarely, but wtf?
Are u on custom rom???
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
I'm unrooted and I get the same things. It's like I pushed something bit I heaven't. I hope that HTC will address this issue in their next update
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
The thing that pops up... is it the last thing you used or used recently?
Like cronus101 asked, if the apps that show after ending the call are the most recently used apps, then I'm guessing HTC Sense (the launcher) is crashing each time and since there's no home screen to go to, it displays the last used app. Pressing back will also cycle through the recently used. This is my guess. Try clearing data of HTC Sense in Settings-Manage apps. The best way to get rid of this is to do a factory reset and start afresh. There could be many reasons why Sense is crashing. This behaviour is typical of any launcher when it FCs. If you don't want to factory reset, you can try using a different launcher (Apex, Nova) and see if this still happens.

Wifi loop on ics

I havnt been able to connect to wifi the past few weeks i thought it was just my home wifi but it doesnt work at public wifi hotspots and tethering has stoped working aswell. The phone connects then authenticates the acquires an ip then loops back to the original non connected state. Is this like damaged hardware or is it an OS issue possibly an app screwin it up. Ive seen other people with this problem but no anwsers. I'm running stock everything.

you can lose your wifi simply by holding the left side while its sideways and if your holding the top as you type on it. I just simply cant connect to wifi anymore im on stock rooted rom i might try a full wipe with a new rom/kernel
