I'm having a problem with Pandora keeping the screen on when plugged in to the aux port I have to lock the the screen or it won't time out and it has only happened since their latest update. I was wondering if I'm the only one with this problem or if someone could help me out. I'm on s3rx 2.0 and decimalman kernel if that helps

Revert to the old version?
Mine is doing the same thing. Pretty freaking annoying.
It is extremely annoying, I would assume it's a "feature" to the companies paying for video advertisement.
On that note, when video advertisements come on if you turn the screen off it skips the advertisement.
Making the iPhone jealous one user at a time.
Not only that but my girlfriends Pandora as well as mine keep randomly shutting off and freezing. any one else having these issues?

Ok guys, this is really stupid but I just figured this out. I feel like a total Herb for not noticing this earlier.
Open Pandora and go to the Settings tab. Go to Advanced. Put a check in the "Conserve battery" check box. Hit back. That's it. The screen will turn off on its own now.
I don't know why this option automatically changed itself in the new version of Pandora, but checking that box lets my screen auto shut off now.
Good lord.

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"

The first A100 I bought would not wake up from standby. I had to take it back and get another one. This one has worked fine.

I will give it a few more days. Wish there was a concrete answer on what causes it as almost all honeycomb tabs seem tp be plagued by it. I changed my screen timeout to never and no lockups yet....will post my results here.
I meant to ask how long did your screen have to be off before it was unresponsive?
Sent from my A100 using xda premium
Same thing happened on my initial one. Tried doing a bunch of things to fix it like restoring it and downloading the newest firmware from another thread and nothing worked. Exchanged it and the new one works just fine.

My wifi is set to be on during sleep.
Ok so about 8 hours so far, no sleep of death yet. Though I haven't tried leaving it idle for more than 2 hours..
I unboxed, booted, updated both updates to 3.2.1, charged to full. Then rooted. Played a bit, currently have wifi set as it was default "sleep when screen off" though I most likely will be changing that to never sleep when I'm travelling.
On a side note..I used to use whatsapp to text with my wife for free when I'm out of the country. But our one year is up and can't really justify paying twice for it for the amount we use it. Is there an alternative to whatsapp that doesn't slaughter battery life? I was going to go with kik messenger but it was causing massive drain in my testing..just running in the background. Also tried IMSY and I think its garbage.
Would love others opinions were also looking to video chat if we can since I now have a ffc. But she will be on the PC. Are skype and tango the best choices?
Wish there was an all in one app that could text/call/video call over wifi with android users as well as pc...does it exist?

Google voice allows you to text; GroveIP allows you to make calls using Google voice, Talk allows you to chat and I also believe video chat.

Just to update this in case anyone is interested,
We will be using Tango for free calls and voice chat...awesome app..I highly reccomend.
Also will be using LiveProfile for messaging, alternative to whatsapp and completely free....also highly reccomend!
So far no sleep issues and I'm at 91% after 14hours of sleep with wifi always on
Looks like my first device was faulty..

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

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.

I just got the phone replaced and it has completely stopped. Thank the lord!
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda premium
The title pretty much says it all. It was working fine last week, then out of the blue, it stopped. It doesn't blink with any notifications (sms, Google voice, emails, etc.) and doesn't turn red while charging (with the phone on and off.)
I tried some "LED color" whatever app off the play store to test it; no luck. I tried a few other apps that let you test out notifications (go sms, sms popup,) and made sure the light was either red or blue, but that didn't work either. I have no task killers.
I said, "well, I might as well Odin back to stock..bhfuedjejudhfrdhxbwysu" and I did. I reflashed cleanGB with the cleanGB kernel. No dice.
Are there any other ways to get it to work? Its annoying cause I don't know when my phone is finished charging or if I get a text. Thanks.

Was it working on stock? If not then it is a hardware issue.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
It wasn't working on stock either. I've honestly only dropped my phone about 3 times since I've bought it (around mid-2010, I believe.)
I was thinking that it might be that I leave it charging overnight & the LED stays on for whatever time I sleep. Maybe it might blown out something in there. You think that might be a problem?
I just want to know for my future phones.

LEDs can go bad my man. That's most likely what happened IMO.

Damn, that sucks. All good things must come to an end. Well, I'll check to see if the warranty I bought from Best Buy still covers the phone.
Thanks a lot for the quick replies, guys.

My wife's Note 2 completely stock is having this strange problem. Out of nowhere it'll randomly open an app in the background and start playing whatever audio that may come from that app. Like if Pandora opens up it'll start playing whatever station she was listening to last. Or navigation will just start navigating out of nowhere. Very strange. Was wondering if anyone has had this problem or if my wife's phone just thinks it's traveling and wants some good music to listen to. Lol
Thanks

Sounds like the phone needs a cleaning. ..g
Alrighty then. I'll do a factory reset and see if that helps. Thanks for your help!
