I think my bluetooth is causing my phone to crash. I have a Jawbone and use it outside the car and the car has a bluetooth stereo. In recent weeks the phone completely freezes (switching between sources). The only thing I can do is do a 3 button reboot to get it back. A couple of times its come out of it but normally I need to do 3 button reboot. Sometimes an error message has popped saying android.phone has ceased functioning??? Then gives option of force close but that doesnt seem to work either.
Dear PDA experts, please help me!!
since a couple of days I am having a VERY annoying problem with my HTC Diamond. This occurs when I am using the original hands-free. It looks like the cable is losing contact or making an incorrect contact...
So, when using the hands-free, the phone starts dialing the last dialed number by itself. When I am listening to music, the music stops and I am hearing how the phone is dialing. This usually happens, when I make the move to put my phone in my pocket. Also, when I speak with someone, the phone automatically puts him on hold, which is even more annoying for the other party! The problem persists even when I switch off the phone module, it still tries dialing!
I had tried many times to get rid of the voice dialer (sddialer.exe), but I cannot delete or rename the file even when I connect the Diamond to a PC. Finally I have disabled it from the registry and it still starts dialing when I make the move to stick it into my pocket!
And I dont have the impression, that the cable is somehow defective, as when I am listening to music, it does not break up. And it always does, when there is a problem with the cable, unfortunately I have a lot of experience with defective hand-frees. Please please help me!! It is not worthy to buy a new handsfree for such an old phone... Is there a way to disable all the buttons of the hands-free, it is the last possible solution I can think of...?
Use the lock screens
My Diamond did that too.
There are several lock screen capabilities that you can enable under settings. More important if you added a custom Rom they usually have a few different options.
With the custom Rom I was running, I could make a call and after pushing the power button, it would lock the phone when on the line with someone. This would happen if you hit any button after the power button was pressed (which usually turns off the screen).
Hope that helps.
I got a new Samsung Gear Live. It shows on my phone that it is paired, then it goes to the downloading phase that i'm sure all of you that have a android wear device are familiar with. Then it just keeps showing "Something went wrong. Try again?" I keep clicking yes, then it keeps bringing back that message. Same thing goes for when I hold the power button, then restore factory settings.
1) Tried on two devices
2) Re-installed my phone, and device many times
Im having no luck, please give me any advice or tips to make this work, the watch is not functional at all. Has anyone else had this problem.
Up sync watch from phone bluetooth list.
Go to android wear app and go to 3 dots top right corner. Follow steps to sync watch to phone. When you are in the screen w bluetooth logo, you have to touch the logo or the word/menu on the display to have it search and pair phone w watch. Make sure when they sync that the bluetooth codes,match on the phone and watch when you hit ok.
Report back if no luck.

I purchased a used Republic Wireless Moto X (1st Gen) and in the beginning I was happy with the phone, but then I got to school with it...
The first thing I noticed was the issue the phone was having with the college's network. The network requires a one time login every 10 hours to authenticate that you are a student. I would login and the phone would work normally on the school's network until it turned the screen off or I hit the power button once to sleep the phone. Once you did this and then tried to use the phone again it was like there was no network even though it was connected and already authenticated. I am forced to disconnect from the school's network and reconnect every time I want to use WiFi if the screen was turned off...
Well that problem was annoying as hell, but it got even worse as time went on (2 weeks). Now I can barely even use the phone at all on campus or sometimes even at my own house. I will be trying to do something very simple like open txt messaging and it will show my messages and then load the names to match the cell numbers (slowly). However when I click on a message it will stay stuck at a white text body with the person's name at the top and a txt enter box at the bottom that I can't do anything with (keyboard won't pop up).
If I hit back normally it will freeze the phone and it will restart, this is my primary problem. When trying to do basic things like txt messaging the phone freezes and restarts itself. Once it restarts on its own, nothing has fixed. I try to open txt messaging again and I get the EXACT same problem and the phone will restart again. The only semi-solution I have found is once the phone restarts itself, I shut it down through the normal hold power button briefly and click power off. Then when it comes back up, SOMETIMES it will act normal-ish.
The odd thing is a lot of the time once I get home on my network these restarts and freezes are much less frequent vs. on the school's network. This could be a coincidence, but I thought I should bring it up.
-------------------------------------
This is my first smartphone I have ever owned, but I have owned two tablets so I am familiar with Android and also with modding Android (rooting, boot loaders, custom ROMs, etc). If modding is the answer here then by all means tell me what I need to do so I can get a phone that functions properly.
I saw that Motorola is testing 5.1 for this phone now, perhaps that may fix these problems? Right now I am tempted to throw this phone out the window and go back to my flip phone that I can at least txt message on.
Not even a single idea?

Some users have faced problems with the device freezing, or randomly rebooting occasionally.
Potential Solution –
If the screen is frozen, tapping on the power button to turn the screen off, and turning the screen on again might unfreeze it. If that doesn’t work, a long press on the power button will reboot the device.
The likely culprit for this issue is a specific application. You can follow the instructions in Problem #4 above to find out if this is the case.

Hi All, successfully loaded Null - however, the damn watch get stuck on the pairing screen after reboot and none of the modern Samsung Wear apps will recognize the thing. Any way around this? Goes anyone have a vintage copy of the Gear Manager APK? I was hoping to revive the watch... any tips? Thank you!
you can skip the pairing window, but that doesnt mean you can do it later, im currently looking into that, but, to skip the pairing window, tap the icon of the watch in the top left corner multiple times until a bluetooth notification pops up, then press and hold the watch icon again until it takes you into the gear
