Music playing on it's Own??? WTF - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Not sure what the heck it happening. Im using CYAN's 4.0.2 ROM with KSpec's Oreo theme and for some reason, every time I plug in my phone to my PC, my phone starts playing music. I've tried reboots of both devices. I have also tried removing both meridian and the HTC music player from the ROM, but it still does it. The way to stop it is if I touch the notification bar on top it stops. Not it's only a minor annoyance as it doesn't do it when I'm charging the phone through a wall jack and I don't hook my phone up the my PC often, but if someone could tell me if there's something I can try ( other than a wipe, which I'm sure will fix it) what may be causing this issue and what might be a fix for it.

Well I know you said you didn't want to do it, but wiping might be your answer. I've read someother people had this problem when hooking it up to there car.

Google Nexus One random restarts

Hi all,
I've been having some random reboots w/ my N1. I got the ATT version w/ 2.3.3 Gingerbread (Latest OTA) Also happened while running Froyo
Not rooted, all stock.
Carrier Cable & Wireless Panama City, Panama
I have already wiped the phone via the security menu and via the recovery boot and doesn't work
I have tried to recreate the problem but I haven't been able to isolate to a particular application or moment that could cause the problem.
Could the 3G data connection cause the problem? I also read about overheating but the problem is completely random.
I would appreciate any tips.
Rob
Suggest you try running a log cat to help identify the issue...

Any particular recommendations from the app market?
Rob
Long time since I've used one...
Download a few, and see which you like. Some let you filter results by significance, others display in different colors, etc. They'll all give you the same info...

Alright here is the log.
My guess is that this is like when Windows creates the minidumps when you get a BSOD. Let me know what to look for and again thanks for all the assistance.
I think I might have traced the problem to the charger. If use the phone for browsing, youtube, FB, IM, email etc etc. I can open all the apps and use them w/o the phone restarting but as soon as I plug in the wall charger or USB data cable it starts restarting. I have to remove the battery and then put it back and power on and let it charge until full. While charging I can use some apps but I try not to use the phone that much since it might restart.
The phone is the usual warm when is charging so I doubt is overheating
Anyone having this kind of problem?
Giving up
Well after a few months trying to figure out what is going on with my GN1, I decided to call it quits and call HTC to get a replacement.
My guess is that since the problem happens mostly when the phone is charging it could be a overheating problem. The same thing happens when you have a portable or desktop computer with overheating problems, it either starts rebooting, becomes really slow or shuts down.
Lets see if the replacement works better or I will have to sell the phone and maybe go back to iOS. :-/

[Q] No media sound, weird dock mode?

The phone: HTC Incredible S
The country: Canada
The Network: Telus
The OS: 2.3.3
The Sense: 2.1
Extra info: Not rooted anymore, problem started bout a week ago, dock mode openned alone when I plugged it in to charge at night via the oem htc usb cable and box.
The problems:
-Calls automatically go to speakerphone, both outgoing and incoming.
-No media sound plays from speakerphone or wired headset.
-No locking/unlocking screen sound
-No ringing sound when an outgoing call is connecting, Just silence until the other person answers. (makes it very awkward)
-Phone will randomly go into dock mode when I charge it at night and sometimes when it's in my pocket in the middle of the day
-When I make a call, I can press the home button and then go into any media (music, video etc) and if I play it, magically the media sound does play (at the same time as the call is on). As soon as I hang up the call, the media sound shuts off even though the song keeps playing (I can see the time advance, just no sound)
When I receive a phone call, text, voicemail etc the notification sound/ringtone plays well and loud.
I can only assume the phone believes it's in dock mode all the time?
Settings:
-Car panel set to NOT auto-launch
-Dock mode set to NOT auto-launch
-Media sound is set to high
-Flip for speaker is off
In the past week I have been going crazy. I have unrooted my phone, reset everything to factory, done factory resets like 4 times so far...took battery out for 3 hours...nothing worked. I have also tried wires headset routing fix, didnt work. I have tried installing invisible dock, still didnt work.
NOTES: I bought this phone second hand a while ago and have no waranty, nor do i have 250$ to buy another one. I am willing to root, use es file explorer to delete the dock mode completely, and change whatever code to make the phone forget dock mode exists. Or just make it not do anything when it enters dock mode.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!!
Thanks
(Before I get slammed for not searching, I have been searching for over a week on this stuff, haven't found a single person with all the problems I list, most people can use headset for media or have some different issues, and half those threads don't have answers...which is why I came to the best tech forums )

aaah, now I got it yeah, try deleting everything that has sth to do with dock. Or at least deactivate. definitely a weird-o-problem
You do have a situation that is unusual for sure.
The only thing I could suggest is that you try the WWE GB 2.3.3/Sense 2.1 ROM to rule out the Telus crapware in your current ROM.
Since you have a IncS NA model PG3212000, you will need to use the pre-rooted stock version in the Development section, so you will need to root and install a custom recovery in order to flash it.
The ROM you want to look for is the WWE 2.30.405.1 version:
WWE 2.30.405.1 stock ROM

I have just purchased an ebay dock, I will try to dock/undock it.
Also to delete the dock APK's do I have to be rooted? I kinda just unrooted yesterday haha... I will have ES file explorer, just I would think I'd need superuser to delete those kinds of files? (Sorry I am a noob when it comes to rooting...thank god for this noob friendly forum which assisted me in rooting it last time )
Also I have tried plugging/unplugging usb cable and headset didn't do anything, I also have toothpicked the hell out of all holes (lol) on the phone, she just doesn't seem to like it (lol again)
I will get some compressed air and try getting crap out...
EDIT: As for telus crapware the phone was originally with bell, I unlocked it and got a custom rom without bloatware, however now that I unrooted I am back with the Bell ruu/rom installed with all bloatware inclussive. However this started before all this back when I was rooted, and persists through unrooting.

You can just try to disable the dock.apk. No need for root, just go to manage apps screen

How do I "disable" an APK? I can force stop "Dock mode" however there is no disable option,. IE even if I close it, it would be able to run again. Also there is no dock.apk, just the dock mode icon in app manage...Anyways even when I force stop dock mode, the problem persists. I believe is may be a physical issue where the usb pins are always touching or something like that and it automatically disables media audio AND launches dock mode...rather than dock mode changing the media sound.

I know that there is no dock.apk it was just a random name, that you get what I mean Mmmhm... that's bad, you can't disable every app. It works with most of them but some are just too deep included. If you get yourself root access again you can kick the apk by using RootUninstaller

Charger plays music?!?!

i just bought an external charger, it works wonderfully with all my devices except my s3 mini. when i plug it in, it does not start charging, but instead it starts playing a random song! so i thought it might be a glitchy music app, so i uninstalled it, and tried again. it opened the system music app and started playing music. if i leave the charger in, and close the music app, it still does not charge, but after about 10 seconds thre music starts again, i rebooted, and tried again. same results. please someone tell me what the issue is im really upset that my brand new charger dosent work on my main device!!!
my rom is cm11 from novafusion, but the same thing also happened on the stock rom.

issues with cm12.1 [5.1.1] [nightly]

First of All Thanks to CM dev's for this awesome roms they have been providing us.
But for some time now, I have been facing some odd issues with my cell.. I'll describe them over here.. Here it goes
1. Issues with OTG Pendrives
This is a weird one i must say for me at-least. The problem is whenever i connect my OTG pendrive to my cell phone. either my cellphone does a soft restart and then loads it(along with it, it also disappears all my apps which are stored in my memory card. thus i cant access them also.) OR it will just my pendrive but again by making my apps in memory card disappear.(in both the scenario my memory card is unmounted everytime, hence the disappearing of apps.)
2. Issue with Loudspeaker.
I had this issue with My stock rom also(i am just adding it here so that atleast someone here might know the solution.). so the problem goes this way. whenever i tried/try(as in now on cm12.1 and in stock rom) a video/song/any file with sound in it, the loudspeaker just plainly wont work. It was like it had his own mood then whenever it wants it'll otherwise it wont. so This problem is still going on in Cm12.1 since i have installed cm on my Xperia SP device. i just cant figure out the issue as to why this is happening. since when i make a call the front speaker through which we hear also doesn't work. But if i turn loudspeaker option on then it will work properly(the loudspeaker). and i can play songs also at that point of time(this is what is odd in this, ie i can play songs while on call via loudspeaker but i cant play while normally i try to play them.).
3. battery drain issue
every i am using my cellphone and i see that my battery is at 5%. i have to look for charger because. when my cellphone shows me 5% on the very next min it will show me 0% and shut down the system. this is sometimes annoying since it will show 8% (below 10% you can say) and the very next min i get the problem that the system is shutting down. this gets annoying when i am doing some important stuff and i suddenly shuts down
If anyone over here know the solution to this issues, please help me with them. since it is literally frustrating sometime that i have to wait for my cell to soft reboot just to access some data in it.
Thank you.
please help me if anyone out there can.

Bluetooth sync issue

Just wanted to ask if anyone else has this issue. Whenever I look to connect my Bluetooth headphones to the phone, it causes a freeze problem. This only seems to have happened the last couple of times I've tried it. Also, it only seems to happen when I've already turned on the Bluetooth setting on the headphones before I then search for devices on the phone. It gets stuck in some kind of freeze loop. Only way out is to try to hard reset the app. Initially, I panicked cos I can't pull the battery out.
