Randomly booting into car mode - HELP! - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Since yesterday my phone will reandomly bot into car mode after pressing an icon. Just this morning I launched facebook from the dock bar the phone buzzed and went to car mode. Few minutes later i went to settings, from the home screen (apex launcher function) and did it again.
It will also sometimes make the sound when you plug it into charger but for no reason.
FWIW I use a 3rd party car dock, but have done so since the phone came out and never had any problems, besides which it is only a replacement for the standard dock.
HELP?! so annoying.

Issue when removing D2G from car and home docks

While I have my D2G in the home I have the time displayed, after removing the phone from the dock and I try to return to the home screen my phone gets all kinds of screwed up. Most times as I hit the return button it will scroll through my apps that I had opened for the past day or two- but in no particular order. Sometimes when I hit the home key it will launch voice commands, most times it will do nothing! Removing from the car dock gives me similar headaches.
Why can't I just remove the phone and be on my merry way?
My D2G is running 2.2 Froyo and Z4 rooted.

Automatic Wakeup on plug or unplug

The A100 wakes automatically from sleep whenever it is either plugged-in or unplugged from its charger.
I would like to disable this silly behaviour if possible.
My wife learned the hard way. Prior to leaving on an overnight trip, she plugged in her tablet with its folio case closed. When the power button changed from orange to blue, she unplugged her tablet and threw it into her purse, not realizing it was awake all the time. When, several hours later she took out her A100 to use it, it was dead.
What would it take to disable the auto-wakeup? Is there a config file that could be hacked by the root user? Or would it take a complete new firmware?
In this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288306, they're discussing the same issue but with the A500, still it could be of help.
Ok, I'm having the same issue and I tried almost everything possible except rooting and using a different rom (I just don't want to). But, I found a work around at least for the the screen to stay off by installing Wake Lock - PowerManager. Now, the device won't go into sleep and the cpu will be on all the time.
I installed the app in my A100 and selected the first option, then pressed the power button and the screen stayed off during all night until I turned it on again by pressing the power button again. Of course the battery was on 25% from its aprox 86% I left it before me going to bed, at least 9 hours passed when I waked up on the morning and turned the screen on.
Then I charged the device completely and started to listen to music with my Koss UR40(I mention which headphone as a consumption variable) and activated the app, turned off the screen and aprox 1 hours later only 10% of battery was consumed.
Notes:
Music app I used: Folder Player
Airplane Mode: ON
Hope the info is of any help!
Try tasker app to cofigure the behavior of a100 when you plug it out.

[Q] Phone freezes after disconnecting from car dock

My phone keeps freezing after disconnecting my phone from the iBolt car dock using the stock car home app. It stays at the lock screen and cannot unlock, only bring down the notification bar. I downloaded car home ultra but have not tried it with the dock to see if this app also recreates the issue. I would rather get the stock car home app to work as I like it a little better. Any advice or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Have you tried coming out of car dock before disconnecting from ibolt, this is what I do without any problem.
Andy-Do you mean pressing the back button and clicking OK on the pop up then disconnecting from the dock? I just did that this morning and it still froze. Thanks.
Yep that's what I meant, have you tried with and without case if you have one on. Also turning off auto dock and doing it manually once seated.
Will give those ideas a try and let you know.

Moto 360 2nd Gen Screen mostly unresponsive/may not be charging

My Moto 360 is about 2 and a half years old. All of a sudden, the touch screen has mostly stopped responding. I can't get into Settings to power it down and see if that resolves the issue. I can sometimes get the top menu to pull down and once got into Settings using two fingers, then eventually to the Systems button, but couldn't get it to go to the Power Off. Sometime last week, I noticed that the watch wasn't going to the old dock face while on the charger. There was a tiny charging icon at the top, so I figured it was part of the latest update. The watch has been charging and working normally since then, up until today, that is. I'm not getting the little icon on the charger, but the charger light is going on. Haven't left the watch on the charger long enough to know if it's done any good.
Now, I can press the side button to get to the app list, but can't scroll through. I can't turn off an alarm. Holding the power button only gets me to the voice recognition system, which works, but I can't finish anything because I can't get the screen to respond. My MotoG 5gen phone seems to be triggering watch behavior all right.
Pretty much all of the suggestions that I found in my searches involve rebooting the watch. But I can't reboot because I can't get the watch to shut down. I tried disconnecting the Bluetooth from the phone. Haven't tried forgetting the watch just in case I can't connect again.
I have been having minor issues with the watch disconnecting from the phone if I've left the phone in one room while I do something in another part of the house. Can't say how often because I haven't been paying attention, but maybe once a week or less. I power one or both down and it's been fine.
Now what?

LGG3 Notification bar not showing anything, home and multitasking button doesn't work

Hello!
I've bought my LGG3 around 3 years ago.
around 1 year later my motherboard somehow broke, i got it fixed through the warranty service.
Around 2 weeks ago my phone started doing some weird stuff, he was resetting himself like 2 times a day, getting pretty worm from nothing (just from charging).
Yesterday I came home, plugged the phone into the charger, it then turned off, and took like 5 minuted to turn on, when it turned on, my background image just disappeared (Im using Nova Launcher), the notification bar gets pulled down but shows "No Notifications", the ONLY button that works is the return button, and it completely removed my access PIN for the phone.
i tried to go on settings and switch to my original user (I read some on the internet and thought maybe that was the problem), but when i tap on Users in settings nothing happens, everything else work.
I had some phishy apps which i removed, scanned the phone with ESET nod32 antivirus after it and still, nothing.
in safe mode its the same; I cant switch users, no notification bar, only return button works, no original background, no PIN.
Do you guys know any of this and have a solution? I will be grateful.
Thanks ahead!
