Just got my new HTC Amaze and loving it so far. However, I use a Kenwood X695 headunit in my car for handsfree calling. About every 30 seconds it tries to automatically download my phonebook from the Amaze.
This used to happen with my Evo3D and Evo4G, but it would only try once when the head unit was initially turned on, and never again. With the amaze is it literally every 30 seconds. I have tried chooseing Automatically Disable on the phone itself when it pops up the request for the download. Ive tried selecting "Disable automatic sync" on the head unit. Nothing seems to stop it.
Im told the ultimate root of this problem comes down to the PBAP (Phone Book Automatic Profile) within Android. I need to disable this. Does anyone know how to do this? Right now Im on stock unrooted. If I need to, I will root the phone and try a different rom. But I need to discover how to disable this. Any and all help is appreciated here. Thanks!

Since two days I got the problem, that I can not activate Bluetooth anymore. On the settings "Wireless & network setting" I press the Bluetooth activation (Turn on Bluethooth). The status changes to "Turning on ... " for about 10 seconds, but doesn't turn on. Before was working fine, I do not remember to have something deleted.
It seems to me, as if Bluetooth is switched off (or disabled) by some application.
Would like to isolate the problem. Any ideas how I can find out.

- command line
- etc

Do you have anything frozen through titanium backup? Have you installed any apps that use Bluetooth? I had an issue with car home locking my Bluetooth up when I undocked it. Telling Car home to turnoff Bluetooth once disconnected fixed mine. If all else fails and you cant figure it out, I would try flashing back to 1.57 and then OTA update it back to 1.83. Last resort of course so you don't have to set your phone back up, titanium backup can make this process easier.
If nothing works then may be a hardware issue. Best of luck.
Just wait before you get into it, another person may have better advice!

Hi. I installed a Bluetooth Transfer app. This was the reason, why I found out that Bluetooth wasn't working anymore. But I know for sure that Bluethooth was running fine, just a few days ago.
I really would like to find the reason, quite sure there is a software reason, and defenitly do not want to flash back.
Hi,
I have an Atrix and have installed the Alien4-ROM (Android 2.3.4 Kernel Version 2.6.32.9).
In addition I insalled a lot of apps.
In the nearest past I got a problem which I don't get rid of.
I even did a wipe of all the user data and installed all apps etc. again (which took me half a day).
Problem:
Sometimes (not reproducable) I am not able to ring someone or if I get a ring the phone freezes.
Starting with e.g. GO Dialer I am going to make a call, press the Call-Button and then nothing, the Screen is freezing (during the initiation of the call).
Vice versa, I get a ring do a Lookscreen-"slide" to answer the call or accept the call and then nothing, phone is restarting or is freezing.
BUT I was just trying to reproduce this behaviour again to describe, but all went fine. So I am never sure if it works or not.
So my question is how I can find out what's going wrong. I assume it's an application, but how I can monitor which application is causing this behaviour.
Is there a debugging which runs all the time (without having the USB-cable plugged in)?
Any ideas/suggestions which is the best way to do a root cause analysis?

hey everyone,
Weird thing happened today. I am in a review session (finals this week... ugh) and I get a text message from my wife. For the first time ever the phone reads it out loud even though my phone is on silent! It was embarrassing because of the whole phone going off in class but also because of the content of the message...
I really want to turn this off... any tips?
What I know:
driving mode is off
beautiful widgets silent mode shuts it off.
Thanks!!
Have you installed the cluezee app? If so and you opened it, that could be it. Also try enabling and disabling drive mode then rebooting. Vlingo could also be the culprit if it's inadvertently on.
Hello all,
Most of the time when I connect my Note to my MINI with MINI Connected (Nav, Pandora interface, Vehicle diagnostic interface, etc), it reboots the phone. It's not instant, sometimes the music will start playing, the car will confirm that the phone directory is updated, and I might even receive a message, but it usually reboots at some point. Once it reboots it usually is ok for the rest of the trip, even after disconnecting and leaving the car.
Yesterday, it started rebooting after disconnecting as well; once again, not every time...just did it yesterday at the mall and this morning when leaving my car for work.
This morning after it rebooted when leaving the car for work, I turned off the voice talk "Connect on Bluetooth" option to see if that does anything, but I thought I'd check to see if anyone has heard anything else.
Thanks!
Update:
So yesterday I rooted my Note and loaded Titanium backup and froze some services I thought might be causing issues. NOGO there.
I also repaired the phone as my primary (which syncs the phonebook) phone and with media audio. NOGO.
Next I repaired with just audio. NOGO
This morning I repaired as a secondary phone (no phonebook). So far so good. On the ride home today I'll pair as primary phone again and see if it stays.
Hi, since updating to Jelly Bean, 2.4.whatever it is now. The latest one as of 04/05/2013, I've had this irritating message pop up every time I connect to, or, DISCONNECT from mobile data 3G network. Alerting me when I connect I could understand if not condone, but when I choose to DISCONNECT? What the hell android? Now as a user of an open source device, naturally I'd expect some sort of option to tick in the pop up saying "never affront me with this stupid and unnecessary bothersome tripe until the day I am a cold and maggot ridden corpse", sadly, no such thing. Every time. Every god-of-reader's-choice damned time.
On my previous S3, I found a work around. Flash a new ROM. Went with Cyanogen mod but lost a load of features I liked, such as calling people from contacts by simply swiping right, and a hell of a lot of other things I just couldn't be bothered to wait for the Cyanogen devs to build in. So I tried flashing back to stock, wrote the phone off. Yes, it was bricked beyond repair, no recovery options, just download mode, forever, and, without USB debugging so I couldn't force root or roms or anything else.
Dead.
I really don't want to have to go through that with my replacement. I have rooted it, which is basically safe, so I was able to kill the other annoying aspect of the S3, the loud alert which sounds just to let you know you've connected or disconnected the charger. AS THOUGH YOU HADN'T NOTICED WHEN YOU DID IT. So, rooted it, found the sound file, deleted. Done.
What I want to do now is, find the pop up... code. Or whatever it is. And delete that too. Or the code that says "display irritating pop up now", or something. It must be stopped. Please, if there is anyone who has found a way around this, which doesn't involve flashing a new ROM, I'd really appreciate it and by the extensive Google search, so will about...4 other people in the world.
TLDR:
Need help disabling the notification which pops up when I connect or disconnect mobile data.
I don't want to flash a new rom.
I am rooted, but wouldn't how to get into the code.
Maybe something which displays an active process tree on my PC while I'm using the phone, I can turn on data connectivity and see what the console displays? Then find and stab the sh*t out of the code...
Ta!
