Hi,,
When im driving, i have a 3 in 1 adapter so i can charge my phone and have the orginal handsfree on to. But they i talk to complain it a noice. and when i pull out the car charger the noice is gone.
other have the same problem?? is it a fix out?
THanks
I also have this problem, very anoing!
A friend has this problem with his kaiser phone when using handsfree adapter in car. It turns out it was because the usb connector was not pressed fully home into the phone. Or the phone was not fully seated in the cradle. Check this to see if it makes a difference. Partly seated gives charge but no handsfree. Fully seated gives both. Somewhere in between gives trouble.
The phone is chargeing. and the handsfree work. I dont hear the noise. but them i talking to hear it.. i tok out the charger from the sigaretplug and the noise was gone..
CE OS 5.2.20771 /20771.1.4.6
ROM version 5.11.502.2 WWE 5/6/09
I plug my phone into a car charger and hang it on a dash mount. While power is connected, I want the phone and screen to stay on and bright. No matter what the settings are set to for powered mode, it goes to sleep in about a minute. I see the power plug indicator, so it knows its plugged in.
No problem if its plugged into a USB port on my computer--always stays on. In my car I have my Jawbone connected, on my desk a BlueAnt speakerphone.
Maybe I found a solution--I plugged in the USB dongle that came with the phone and plugged the charger into that., Stays on now. I also have a FM adapter plugged into the headphone jack to play music on my car stereo.
I have built a Nexus 7 into my car and I have a small issue.
I need a tasker profile:
When I turn the car on, the screen turns on and music plays.
When i turn the car off, the music stops and the screen turns off. (along with other stuff)
I have created a "test" version of all this so when I connect a power cable (i.e when charging) it turns the screen on and plays music.
When I disconnect the USB (i.e. stops charging) the screen goes off, music stops, bluetooth off etc and all this works fine.
However, the USB will always be connected with power coming through so I cannot use this option. I need another way to detect if the car is on and when it turns off so I can run the correct tasks.
One option i thought of is buy a wireless charger and build it into the car. When my phone is placed on the charger, send a text message to the tablet to turn it on, and when i turn the car off the charging will stop, then the phone will send a text to the tablet to turn the screen off etc.
However after purchasing the wireless charger, i realised everytime i get a call or take my phone of the charger for whatever reason, the screen will go off and music will stop, so this isnt an option either.
So the question is, what can i do so tasker can detect that the car is on or off so the nexus can perform the tasks?
Hope that makes sense

You do realize that you really have two problems, right? The Nexus 7 will not know when the car is started, or stopped. Unless you can disconnect the power, manually etc.. If you can do that, you can send a command in fastboot to force the N7 to power up when power is connected, otherwise you'd have to boot it up manually.
You could unplug the USB charger.. Or have the tablet turn off after N hours of inactivity, although how do you detect "new" activity if there's no change when the car is started.
If your car has bluetooth, you could detect that as the "turn off" task perhaps, but turning on is probably your bigger issue.
Will the wireless charger idea work?

No idea what you mean by wireless charger (2012 model has no wireless charging), or how you'd control it with the phone. And unless your tablet is a 3g one, I don't know how you'd directly communicate with it either.
I just put my phone back to stock so I had to uninstall Tasker, however your tablet does not pull power once the car is off correct? I had a power based one as well, I remember testing it with a surge protector. I could leave the USB connected but flip the surge protector on and off (to mimic power to the phone being halted). To my knowledge when the car is off your USB shouldn't be drawing power therefore you could run the profile off that. Export the profile and post here. I'd like to help test it.

My last four cars (current and previous of wife and my cars) the lighter plug stays powered when the engine is off.
I think it's getting increasingly common for the plugs to stay powered. So there's no way for the tablet to know the car is off unless the car has bluetooth and you can look for that.

I have actually found the exact opposite to me true. My wife's 2014 Pilot goes off as well as my 2012 Veloster whereas my 2001 Sable and her 2007 Passat left them on. I'm not sure if you can resolve your issue then. I'll keep looking into it. You could trigger it based on speed I think

I suppose that could work.. Find out the speed for several periods in a row, if it's zero, assume it's time to shut down. But that'd mean it's playing music etc during that period etc.
IMO bluetooth, or a plug he can turn off, is really the only way if his USB is powered up all of the time.
Also remember, he has no way to know when to power UP either. I still maintain that's the bigger problem, especially if it's a fixed install and he can't poke the power button
At the moment, its connected so when the car turns on, the USB is powered up and when the car turns off, the power in the USB stops. So at the moment, my tasker profile works on "when charging" do Task A, when not charging do Task B. And it all works fine at the moment.
However I am having issues with charging, (The device is not charging fast enough when turned on and the battery drains over a couple of days) so i planned to keep it always charging, so the power in the USB will always be there regardless of if the car is on or off. So i cant use the "when charging" on tasker anymore. So i needed a new way to it to figure out when i got in the car.
Here are my ideas:
1. Have a wireless charger in my car for my phone. (Not the tablet). When i get in the car, i could put my phone on the charger, have the phone send a text to the tablet to turn it on. When i remove the phone from the charger, send a text to the tablet to turn it off. Simples
2. Connect a wifi router in the boot or something and have it start up only when the car starts, and turn off with the car. It doesn't have to be connected to the internet, it just needs to power up. Then i can do a 'When wifi near' on tasker to see if the car is off or on, and turn the screen off accordingly.
3. Connect the tablet to my phones bluetooth. Whenever i get in the car, they will connect and the tablet will power on. when i leave the car, it will power off. (Not the best option since it will stay on even if i am near the car)
4. Similar to option 1, but have a nfc sticker in the car. when i swipe my phone on it, it communicates with the tablet and turns it on, n then off when required. but i dont want to do this since i know i am going to forget to turn it off one day.
I don't really want to do the speed option, since i want it to turn on as soon as i enter the car, not when i start driving, and i want to be able to park up and use it when i need to put an addess in the sat nav etc.

If your charger isn't charging fast enough, you're using a crappy charger or one that isn't designed for Android. If your car has a built-in USB port, those are usually super slow, maybe 500mA, most less.
Anyway, glad to hear that your power follows the car state, that makes it all simple.

I've tried about 20 different chargers, up to 2.5amps. The problem isnt the charger. The problem is i dont drive the car long enough to give it time to charge. So if i drive the car for about half an hour a day, for the other 23.5 hours, its on standby. so the battery is always going to go less. So thats why I plan to connect the charger directly to the battery so it will always be charging.

Oh, I thought you had the tablet turning off when the car went off. If I were you, I'd set up a profile that turns off the tablet if it hasn't had power in a few hours, pretty simple to do. On Power, set a time var, every so often check that time var to see if it exceeds your threshold, and power down if so.
If you don't have much installed, it should be a fairly quick power-up, especially the plug goes hot when you start the car.
BTW I hope you're considering cold and heat if you're leaving the tablet in the car. Leaving it in the heat all summer will will the battery.
You can use Timur's kernel, it senses power to turn N7 on or deep sleep it.
Also charges N7 while using OTG.
It;s designed for car install.

I agree, you need to get at least a 2A charger for your car. My wife would watch Netflix on long drives and my car USB port or the normal USB charger I got for the cigarette lighter worked until I up'd it to a 2A charger. I can have screen on for hours while streaming video and still fully charge the tablet in a reasonable amount of time.
Got my S6 (Verizon) on Friday. Pretty happy with the overall improvements. Main sad points are no better battery life and what seems to be a weaker bluetooth radio.
Overnight I charge my phone on a night table beside my bed. For 3 nights I slept well just like I have with my previous S3 and S5 phones.
I got my sexy new wireless charger yesterday and decided to use that on the night table to charge my phone, but was awoken by a nice "beep" when the phone was fully charged. If not bad enough, the charge seemed to cycle off and back on at some point in time (think it was less than a half hour), and it beeped again. This woke me up and is not going to work!
I can't find any option to disable in settings/battery or settings/sounds and notifications where I can turn off this beep on full charge. What I find odd is the different behavior of wired charging (no audible notification) and wireless charging (audible notification). I have confirmed that the beep is coming from the phone and not the charger by turning off the sound on the phone and letting it hit 100%.
Anyone know where this setting might be buried or know of some tweak or trick to disable this notification?
Thanks!
I have yet to fully change my s6 from at&t but make sure it is not the charging pad making the noise. Some pads have speakers to alert you of the phone charging and when it's finished. If that's the case I just opened mine up and cut the cords to the speaker. If not than I don't think k there's much you can do other than trying to change the settings using USB debugging and adb.
I have confirmed that the beep is coming from the phone and not the charger by turning off the sound on the phone and wireless charging to 100%. Under that condition, there is no beep.
Well I'm not quite sure what you could do to turn off the beep but I'm sure there's a way similar to the method to turn off the back button and menu button lights. The best idea I had was to have your phone go into silent mode at certain times to make sure it doesn't beep every x minutes throughout the night

Sadly, that's what I'm coming up with as well, which isn't what I want. I need to be able to be notified of work emergencies, college kid issues, etc. As flexible as android can be, it certainly is frustrating at the things you can't control without being rooted (and that doesn't appear to be an option today with Verizon Galaxy S6).
Oddly enough I have absolutely no sounds coming from my wireless charger or phone when it charges to full. The only sound I hear is the one that occurs when it starts charging or detects the wireless charger. Other than that, the phone charges in total silence, and the charger itself simply changes from blue to green once it hits 100%.
Mine as well. I use the Nokia wireless charger. Maybe the charger you are using is telling your phone to make the sound when the battery gets full.
Little update here on a partial solution.
I actually found an app "Battery Full Notification" that allowed me to turn off the audible beep when the battery is full during wireless charging.
...but due to the cycling off and on of charging after that point, I still get a beep when it begins to charge again. *sigh*.
I use trigger to automatically turn off notification sounds when I connect charger then have it turn notification sounds back on @ 7 am. You can do manually if you press volume up then the gear and turn notification down all the way.
I have a weird issue with my v40 if it's charging when i turn my car off. The screen goes black, not low backlight, won't turn on if I have it charging in my car when i turn it off. I get the vibration from the fingerprint scanner, so I know it's still powered on. The screen remains black until the phone resets itself ~1 minute later. I've never had this happen with any other phone. Has anyone else had this happen?

Sounds like there's a power saver option turned on somewhere, may be connected with the main app you have running while docked in your car.
