Car Mode in Android - Spontaneous launch - LG Optimus 2x

I found a little issue in all ROM which I used before and also in ROM which I'm using now. I think that everyone know Car Mode which is a special navigation menu to the car in our phones. The icon of this app looks like the car wheel. I have a little problem with this application:
1. I'm using a WidgetLocker app but with default lockscreen I have this issue also.
2. This problem is happend when I want to unlock my device.
And finally what's the problem? This app will starts spontaneus. I don't know why and I can't explain. Where is the problem? And always when I press EXIT CAR MODE in this app, I have still a notification icon. Strange problem I think. I don't have any program which have this function.

Do you have a cover with a magnet in it?

Yes I have. This is the reason? Are you kidding me?

Magnet activates car home, it's how the official car dock functions.

i think this might have been discussed before in other forums. you may want to do a search on this and i believe you can find the results.
just out of curiousity, why would you want to activate vibrate effect for keypress? you are using 1800MAH battery?
Here
Heres an app that works fine with my Diamond. He's right, though, battery conservation is crucial on this phone, unless you can charge it all the time, like at work in the car, etc. Here it is anyways.

Car dock disables

Does anyone else have a problem with the car dock randomly disabling and playing on regular speaker mode? Almost every time I dock it the phone will stop and using the navigation on it I need the loud dock speaker not the regular phones speaker. The phone still shows the orange light so it seems to still be connected to the power. I thought bumps may cause the plug to get lose and disconnect but since the orange light is on I don't think its that plus reconnecting it sometimes doesn't help. Any ideas? I'm going to use it for a 8 hour drive so I hope someone helps!!

Mine seems to goof up if I leave wifi on. Try turning off wifi. That seems to work for me. Sometimes if I drive past a house or whatever that has wifi my phone picks it up and it seems to goon up my car dock connection. Hope this helps

my wifi automatic turns off when i leave my remembered locations so i know its not on. its so annoying to worry about the gps/phone/navigation when getting turn by turn directions. this is because even though the phone has been connected and the light stays on when returning from the long drive the and undocked the phone i found the phone very low on battery. i dont understand why if i always checked the light to make sure its not being disconnected since i thought that would mean its not using the battery to power it. this time i am going to try like 4 apps that say they will keep it in dock mode bluetooth on so we will see. i wish i didnt have to load all these apps and just knew which works but i cant risk this happening in a big busy city.

This happens to me too, every once in a while. What I do is unplug the dock from the power, plug it back in, insert my N1 into the dock, go into settings and repair the dock. Works after that.

will keep this in mind. i noticed another problem. i lowered the audio when playing pandora internet radio but i cannot put it back to loud! ive tried audiomanager and nothing. used navigation to turn it up but it says its maxed already yet both are very low. its so odd that i can lower the audio but not make it louder. ive now lowered it to like 1 bar and cant hear nothing unless totally silent in the car. ive even downloaded some apps to max the dock audio but i dont think they worked. time to reinstall cm i guess.

Did you try the volume buttons on the dock?

Oops, just noticed a typo. My sentence should read like this: "This happens to me too, every once in a while. What I do is unplug the dock from the power, plug it back in, insert my N1 into the dock, go into settings and re-pair the dock (via Bluetooth). Works after that.

yea thahts the problem i cant make the volume higher just lower and no way i can get to the phones buttons without undocking the phone. hmmm i wonder if the volume is in the actual dock and a unplug will restore it.
Have had this problem (random bluetooth disconnects) with the car dock since, I think, 2.2.1 came along. Reseting the car dock (power off and on) sometimes resolves the issue. Prior to 2.2.1 I don't think this problem existed. Anyone confirm that ?
*Update* Nexus One died totally today and is being collected by HTC UK tomorrow. That might explain some of the more bizarre behaviour I have been seeing.
ive had the problem on 2.1 but it wasnt a big deal for around town. found it a pain in unknown cities especially noisy highways using the stock speaker on the phone. i got home today from the trip i must take every 6 months and stayed parked trying to figure it out. 1st thing i had to do was up the volume. i found a nice app called a2dp volume that helped restore max volume on the actual car dock. at that exact moment it was docked but switched back to speaker kicking off all car dock apps like navigation and car mode. i just left it in the dock trying not to tiggle anything to reactate it and checked the settings-wireless and bluetooth. under bluetooth settings way at the bottom in paired devices i saw the car dock nexus one. it said it was paired but not connected. i held down the item and clicked connect (also if clicking the item gives you like 3 checkmarks 2 checked but 1st box is unchecked named Connect) and that is how i fix it now. really annoying to navigate through all that just to reconnect the bluetooth to the device. looking for a app that will help with this. if anyone finds it please reply!
When you say your wifi turns off, does it turn itself back on when you go back to you remembered networks? If so disable wifi completely.

i have a app called y5 that completely turns off the wifi when away from the remembered area. with that app, i cannot turn on/off the wifi because the app will not allow changes unless i turn off that app.

DeskMode or DeskMode Lite app?

Is there a DeskMode or DeskMode Lite app that will enable desk mode triggering with an AOSP ROM so that the phone goes into desk mode when inserted into the multimedia charging cradle?
I just bought the dock and It's kinda useless with out the desk clock features,I'm running synergy.

I don't think it's possible to activate any home dock automatically unless the dock has something built into it for when you connect it which idk exist yet for the Thunderbolt but I could be wrong about that. There are apps out there that can be used as a dock app you would have to open the app like you would with any other. But some has a feature that it automatically activates whenever its connected to a charger including the home dock.

[Q] Disable docking mode

I'm using a magnetic adapter for my charging cable, but the phone detects it as a dock, and turns on autorotation even when it's turned off. Is there a way to get rid of dock mode?

There is an xposed module Disable Desk Dock for your problem.
Sent from my D5503 using xda premium
I don't have a desk clock set up so there's nothing top disable. I just need to disable autorotation when I connect the magnetic charger.
I'm on Lollipop, so Xposed is not an option.

In my case, I install the app "screen off and lock" from playstore, activate it correctly. Then when you conmect your magnetic cable, there will be the pop up asking you want to use the daydream (dock mode) or screen off and lock. Choose nothing, then use your phone normally.
If you can find the other app can interphere the default off the day dream app, it would have the same result.

Can you double check the screen rotation after you plug in the cable? Can you actually disable it?

everytime I connect the magnetic cable there will be the pop-up menu asking me to choose dreamday or screen-off-and-lock.
I just click the empty space and use my phone normally

It asks and i can continue using phone but the phone still rotates even though its set to portrait. It doesn't solve the problem of putting the phone in forced auto-rotate mode when connecting with magnetic charger of any kind.

Sorry to reply to this older thread - but maybe still interesting for some.
And yes - I kown there are some Xposed modules for it. But some do not what to run Xposed at all or keep the modules as low as possible.
Decompile: /system/framework/framework-res.apk
And open following file with Notepad++
\res\values\bools.xml
and change
<bool name="config_deskDockEnablesAccelerometer">true</bool>
to
<bool name="config_deskDockEnablesAccelerometer">false</bool>
recompile and replace the original by the modded one...
Please note:
This is only to show were to change it! Please do not ask "how to de- or recomplile" here...
Use google to find out if you are not able to do it.

Screen rotation issue

Hi,
has someone else problems with the screen rotation?
Actually I like to use macdroid to control when screen rotation is enabled. It will activate based on where I am and what app I use.
So the rotation is usually portrait fixed but when I use youtube ie. the screen will rotate so I can use landscape there too.
The problem is that either by using macdroid or even when I enable/disable rotation too often it won't rotate anymore.
I have to restart the device to have it working again.
Can you confirm this? Or is this just my device?

Nothing wrong here. Turned on the auto rotate, went to youtube, played a video in portrait mode. Then rotated the device and the video went into landscape.

Try turning rotation on and off several times and then see if rotation still works after you turned it on.

Well, this sounds like app specific problem. Don't use macdroid for such tasks and u're ready to go.

As said it even happens when I press the tiles button too often. So its not a problem of the app.
But maybe the device is broken. I'll try to reset it and see if the problem exists if a few more people can confirm its not a problem for them I guess.
No issues whatsoever with screen rotation here. Sorry.

Yes i had the same issue! Each time the problem appear i have to reboot my phone !
I install phone tester on play store, and it seems that accelerometer stop working (it wait for data)
Moreover, i had the problem in Safe Mode (power on Button -> long press on Shut Down -> 'Do you want to restart in Safe mode' -> Yes)
I think if your screen didn't rotate in safe mode, the problem is not a third app.....
For my phone i will bring it to warranty tomorrow

This is another issue which looks to me like a software bug in the system itself.

You can try something else: on google map, is the compass working?
On my previous nokia 7 plus, both compass and screen rotation didn't work properly.
I just change it this morning on the shop i bought it, and the compass is working on the Nokia 7 Plus i had now
Hardly I have to calibrate often. I guess my device is broken so I will return it too.
The new one i obtain this morning already have the last version of android (8.1 instead of 8.0 for the first one), i think the second one was not from the same manufacturing batch.
I hope you will obtain a new phone or a quick reparation!
I got my replacement phone and after some testing I can say that the initial device was faulty. The new one does not show the problems mentioned.
