This is on my stock AT&T Galaxy S II. Had it in driving mode in the car, worked fine with BT, got to the office, still in driving mode. Rebooted. Still in driving mode. Had to find "voice talk" in the app drawer and turn it off there, so apparantly it remembers driving mode settings between reboots. Thanks, AT&T! (sarcasm)
Settings>Voice Input and Output>Text-to-speech settings> Uncheck driving mode?

When you turn flight mode on and then later turn it back off, the bluetooth functionality doesn't appear to work. Its turned on, but when a call comes through it doesn't pick up. Does anyone else have thise problem with the XDA2? Is it yet another 'feature'?
Exactly the same on the MDA2.
BT is ON, but the BT headset mode remains disabled, so each time you switch off the flight mode, you have to turn on the headset mode. Really stupid IMHO.
I don't think this is a "problem" or a bug.
Turning on flight mode means there should not be any Radio activity. Therefore BT Radio will be turned off as well. It makes sense.
It remembers your last BT Radio selection though. So, when the flight mode is off, BT Radio mode will resume like it was before flight mode, that is either OFF, ON or DISCOERABLE. The only thing that it doesn't remember is which profile was enabled. So you'll have to enable it when flight mode is off.

This is exactly what we were talking about...or at least is what I was TRYING to explain...IMHO is very stupid that it does not remember the profile that was enables, this means that every time we have to turn on the profile again...
Is it that when Flight Mode(phone) is switched ON, the bluetooth won't work.

well i would suppose so since places like in planes and on some hospitals where they fear interfearence from wireless devices like cellphones they see bluetooth the same way
i suppose that it should turn wifi off aswell
but what they are talking about is that when you turn flight mode back on the bluetooth stack dont recall some of it's settings
Cheers for the reply, forgive me if this sounds stupid but to re-enable the bluetooth profile after switching flight mode back off, do you use Ultra Profile or is it done some other way?
I am using hyperdrive ROM and would like to know if there is any way to disable the confirmation prompt when enabling flight mode. I am trying to use phone schedule to save some more battery life when I don't have phone signal for a period of time.
Thanks.
As someone who is in NYC and uses airplane mode whenever I go on the train, the airplane mode confirmation drives me crazy.
Dang! I haven't had a need for it yet (just 2 weeks in) but just tried it and it is pretty irritating. Hopefully someone can develop a mod to banish it forever.
When I go to enable Car mode in the Notifications Panel I get the message "Unable to use Car mode. S Voice is disabled. To enable S Voice, go to Settings > Application manager, then try again." Thing is, I have not turned off S Voice and can start S Voice from the app icon without any issues. Am I using it wrong or forgetting to turn on something before trying to enable Car mode?
EDIT: nevermind, looks like I had S Voice Greenify'd and its wakeup path to Car mode cut... reattaching corrected this.
Over the last month or so, my phone has been randomly activating DND mode. It seems like I did not have this issue when I had tilt to wake turned off, so I'm wondering if my watch is causing this. I've also posted in my phone's forum with no responses. Has anyone else experienced this with the Zenwatch? Is there some gesture that activates it?
What is Do not Disturb mode?
Is it just going silent? There is a DND switch in the android wear app that silences the phone when the watch is connected, is that off?
DND is the new silent mode that silences all notifications except alarms and priority.
My ZW2 automatically goes into DND when the power save feature kicks in at 15%.
Yeah you can put the phone and watch into "do not disturb" mode by swiping down from the top of the screen and turning it on or off. I'm wondering if this is somehow accidentally getting switched on there or if it is a software bug with the phone. You can set it to come on on a schedule on the phone, but I have never set that option up.

Ok, the watch is definitely causing this. My phone was in the middle of an upgrade for Android and I noticed that the watch had switched over to Do Not Disturb while it was disconnected from the phone. I may be due for a factory reset.

So, I finally figured out what is causing this. You can enable Do Not Disturb entirely through gestures with the watch. If you twist your arm towards you with the screen on, it will pull down the menu from the top that has your battery and the button for do not disturb. If this menu is open, a quick downward flick of your arm will enable do not disturb. Apparently, I am doing this combination of motions fairly often.
You are a lifesaver with this tip!
The strange thing is that after a while my Zenwatch also does not receive any agenda items (agenda simply shows no items) nor will it receive any notifications (calls, emails etc) whenever the DND issue arises even though I exit DND mode. Until now the only solution I have found to this is doing a hard reset on both my phone (HTC M8 running latest GPE marshmallow) and the Zenwatch 2. The usual tricks like clearing the watch and the Android Wear app do not resolve this.
Any thoughts on what might be wrong?

I never ran into that issue. Mine seemed to go back to normal once I disabled DND. However, my phone had some issues with DND and settings would crash if I tried to adjust the DND settings. I think that this was just a weird issue with my phone and not related to the watch.
I have not had DND enable since I turned off wrist gestures in the watch settings. I also sent feedback to Google requesting to be able to customize or remove items from that drop-down menu. Maybe if others who are experiencing this issue do the same, they will implement some kind of fix.
When I turn on flight mode and then turn it back off again, sometimes Bluetooth gets activated even if I never had it enabled before. This happens maybe every 10th time flight mode is toggled, but cannot reproduce 100%.
Any ideas?
That is strange... Do you keep your device on 24/7? I'd recommend that you reboot it and see if this issue persists.

Go to Settings - Advanced Settings - Location services - 3 dot on the top right corner - Scan settings - Turn off the Bluetooth scanning.
It will solve the turning on of the bluetooth after the airplane mode.

I do, but since some xposed modules require rebooting after updates, it definitely does not improve with a reboot.

Thanks, I've toggled the switch and will report back if it resolved the issue!
Update from the last few days: No more issues, it seems turning off Bluetooth scanning did the trick, thanks again!
