is there any way to shut off that beep? my wireless charger randomly looses connection occasionally and beeps in the middle of the night... not often, but enough! id really like to kill that sound, any suggestions?
I don't believe there's a way besides putting your phone on silence. I use the Quiet Hours setting to put mine on silence during sleep time, and create exceptions for certain contacts.
ive got the quiet hours set and it still beeps? i thought that would do it, but no luck on my phone?
You know, I stand corrected. Quiet Hours still doesn't disable the charging sound. Only silent mode shuts it off.
That is the #1 reason I want to root mine... I'm holding out for samsung pay though. I have a lot of different wireless charging pads and they are hit and miss as far as the connection. However, the one I have at my bedside is an official samsung pad and it never seems to lose connection as long as it is centered. Perhaps switching pads might fix your night problem.

I'm curious if anyone has had any issues with using bluetooth calling in a car. With my SGS1 (Verizon US Fascinate), when I hang up a call via bluetooth in my car, bluetooth on the phone will crash and disconnect from the car. The phone will freeze for a few minutes, then I have to disable and re-enable bluetooth for it to re-connect to the car. I've talked to a few others who have had the same issue with my same phone, but I guess not many people use this feature or have this bug? I would like to know if anyone with an SGS 2 uses bluetooth calling via car and if they have any issues.
I'm also curious about the minor things Samsung does in their ROMs which never made sense to me. The primary one is the "charge complete" notification. I charge my phone at night while I sleep and in the middle of the night (every night), I get a notification beep telling me the phone is charged. It also turns on the VERY bright AMOLED display which lights up the entire room. Also, my girlfriend's Samsung phone will die in the middle of the night if it's not charged and will blast the shutdown animation and sound VERY loud.
Samsung does little things that are a bit irritating at times and I'm curious if they've improved with their new phone.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help answer these questions.

interedsting thread. one thing keeping me off the sgs2 was the sgs 1 faults...
I have a delay when pressing the home button.. it's not as instant as the back button. did the original sgs have that problem too?
Can't get it to work and it is checked on in settings. Is there a trick to it? I've tried face down and face up and only while on outgoing call that is still ringing, not during a connected call. Is that the problem? That would seem weird to me.
Also, when I first started researching phones, one of the first ones I looked at had a feature that when you got a call if you turned it over it would silence the ringer. I have a feeling it was the Moto Droid though. Anyone know if there's an app to do that on the RZD or if I'm mistaken and it has that feature?
From my understanding, u must be in "normal" sound profile for flip speaker to work. Also the ringer does go silent* when u pick it up.
*maybe not silent, but ringer does get alot lower

It's in normal.
I haven't noticed that with the ringing but I'm thinking more of a silence the phone and ignore it sort of situation. Like if I'm at work or with a friend and the phone rings I can just turn it over and it will stop.
Mine works. I accidently got it to work actually. Sat the phone down while talking to someone then all of a sudden they got loud. Everytime I have tried it sense it has work.
was one of the first things I discovered on my rezound, and I love it. I use it quite often actually haha. There is a setting in the menu to enable or disable it, as well as the silence if you move the phone while it's ringing.
Settings > Sound settings under incoming calls
I used to have these extra settings checked, but i read somewhere that it drains the battery faster. Maybe the sensors detecting the orientation of the phone causes some battery drain, but im not positive about that.
It works really well on mine. If there's a battery issue, maybe you want to check what power settings you're in. I keep mine in performance, since that also seems to cause less problems with 4G turning off. Also check if your sensors are working, maybe with a tilt game or something similar. I've had it on the whole time and it doesn't seem like I get less battery life than what people report, at least not obviously.
Just tested this out, and it seems like the speaker phone flip and silence ringer flip only work when the phone is on a flat surface. The phone lowers the volume of the ring when you pick it up, but mutes it completely if you flip it face down on a flat surface. The speakerphone works the same way, at least I couldn't get it to activate without putting the phone down.

I tested the muting the rings when you turn it over and that worked, then when I answered it my friend hung up! She didn't know the second part of the test. lol. Then our food came and we stuffed our faces. Then we had to go to a stupid 3 hour safety training class that didn't apply to our department AT ALL. Oh well...
I wonder if it needs the sensor covered up as well as being turned over, the one that makes the screen turn off when you hold it to your ear.
Yep, I think that's it. If you turn it over and don't lay it on a table no speakerphone, but if you then just cover that sensor with your hand it goes to speakerphone. Problem with this function is when you turn it back over speakerphone turns off. Guess I'll just turn on speakerphone the old fashioned cumbersome way. Was hoping to just be able to flip it over and back. Oh well.

Has anyone had issues with bluetooth phone and media disconnecting randomly with the rezound? I have the rezound paired with my 2011 Acura TL, and I've had it just randomly disconnect 4 or 5 times now. Sometimes just media disconnects, sometimes both, sometimes bluetooth shuts off entirely? Anyone else notice weirdness?
I use a blueant t1. When an incoming call comes in, it is fine. Occasionally, when I make an outgoing call, I have to shut off the blueant and turn it back on to make it work even though it says it is connected.
One time I would turn it on and 3 seconds later it would turn itself off. Reboots or battery pull did not fix. I had to do a factory reset. Verizon said was probably some software I loaded, but I have since restored all the same apps and happened once for like 10 minutes, but never again. I looked and it was in performance mode too. Otherwise, I have had mine disconnect but never during a call, maybe only once. I also have an issue with it coming into the middle of a sentance during navigation if using my bluetooth speaker. It works fine without the bluetooth, but not with it.
I don't think so. I used it in my car for 2.5-3 hour trips over the holidays and it has been solid. Used it for calls and streaming music from my phone and mostly streaming podcasts from internet.
I could swear I read something about someone having disconnect problems in his car but I searched and couldn't find it. Something about it disconnecting in his car when he held it a certain way.

Thanks. I'll try that out. I always have it in my inside jacket pocket in the car, so it's definitely not the way I'm holding it.
I rarely use the phone over bluetooth, but loves me some A2DP.
First of all I've been really stressed about this issue now for a week..... I recently went GSM for my DNA, but right before that I noticed my home dock and Car mode symbols popping up on my notification bar. It at first would just bring up the stock docking screen or car mode screen. I assumed it was my charger connections being dirty. I cleaned those on both cord and phone. Still no change although I noticed that if I wiggled the cord I could pop both modes on and off, figuring the cord was shot I went out and bought a new cord. Still no change although wiggling it did nothing now. I then proceeded to disable both modes. This did nothing but cause me to lose other functions like my speakers not working some buttons bringing me to wrong pages and what not. I started searching online for solutions and found a ton of recommendations on apps to stop this from happening. Found a car one for free that works great, but I still cannot stop the home dock from constantly popping up and forcing my wifi to turn on (despite the fact that I've turned off all notifications and forgotten all previously used networks) and refreshing all my apps and web pages while i'm using them. My phone is not rooted and I think that would be my next logical step, but I've never rooted a phone before and don't really know where to start.
Can someone help????
Hi.
I've been looking for days, but finally had to make a thread of my own. Sorry, I know I should try and find the answer myself, but in this chase I just couldn't.
Jump to the last paragraph if you don't care for all the backstory.
Anyway, the "problem".
I like to listen to audiobooks when going to sleep. I use bluetooth earpods which I usually just fall sleep with in my ears (they are very comfortable, so it's not a problem..). However, I use a timer on my audiobook app so it automaticly turn off the playback every 20 minutes (or it will continue if I'm not sleepy yet, and press a button on the earpiece when I hear the sound starting to fade out.). This is a neat feature, since when I wake up the next day, I know I fell asleep somewhere within the last 20 minutes of where the book is paused, and it's easy to backtrack to the point before I dozed off.
Great!
However, the earpiece itself doesn't turn off, it stays connected to the phone thoughout the night, and the next day I usually have to charge it before I can use it again (depending on how much I used them before going to bed, they usually work for like 14 hours before needing a recharge).
SO, I was wondering, is there some way to make my phone (Xperia XZ2) tell my earpiece to turn itself off if there is no audio playback for a given amount of minutes? Or simply turn off bluetooth all together? I think the earpiece will turn itself off after a while if it isn't connected to any BT source.
A have bought Tasker, thinking that could help me. But I have no idea what I'm doing.. I'm handy enough with technical stuff, so I should be able to do at least some fancy stuff you guys might come up with. It doesn't have to be pretty, it just have to work.
Thanks for reading and any response.
