Is there any option, aside from xposed, to disable the stupid safe volume warning? Every time I plug the aux cable for my car into this phone, I have to crank the volume back up, as it resets to 35/75 volume. This is annoying as hell. Xposed has its own issues right now, so I'm hoping to fix the auto volume another way, possibly a build.prop edit? I've tried to figure it out, but don't know enough about this to make it happen.
Thanks for any input!

What second screen issues? If you mean the crash during a phone call, that's fixed in my ROM.

Nope, it's fixed every current updated rom here, has been since mid November ish. Before that I flashed the necessary fixes, which are easily obtained by people who have the XDA version that has a search bar function...
Common sense isn't all that common...
I used second screen fixes and G4 TweaksBox Sound Tweaks-Disable Safety Headset Volume.

So I've had my S2 for a few weeks now and I've never had any problems up until now when my headphone jack stopped working for some reason.
I use my phone for music when I'm driving and I always connect an AUX cable to it and it worked flawlessly. Fast forward to last night, I'm leaving the gym and plug in my phone as I usually would, but this time I hear a weird thumping noise coming from the speakers... I immediately unplug it and plug it back in once again but the noise persists.
I head back home and I plug in the headphones I always use but when I turned on the music, it played through my speaker. I checked to make sure I plugged it in all the way, turn it on again to no avail.
Anyone know what's going on here? Is this a common issue with these phones? do I have to send it back to AT&T?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like bad hardware. If it were my phone the first thing I'd do is take it to 100% stock. If problem is gone then it was just software. If it still doesn't work, your phone is already to go back for a warranty exchange.
First I've heard of a headphone jack failing, with no water damage, on this phone.

Had this problem 2 phones ago. Csr will ask you to do a reset on your phone before any actions can be taken.

I just started getting this issue a couple of weeks ago. I took it back to bone stock and still nothing. I get the feeling it is the built in amp crapping out. I use mine for the same purpose, the aux input in my car. I always had to crank the phone volume to max so I could control it with my car's controls. Maybe the constant high output killed it? Either way I don't want to have to go without my phone even for a week or two.. :'(

I just got off the phone with AT&T's warranty guys and they are sending me a refurb to replace it. They asked all kinds of questions, but really I just needed the last 4 of the IMEI and whether or not the freaking moisture sensor was showing a color other than white ( I guess it turns pink/red if it gets wet). I already bought and used a jig on my device to make sure I didn't void the warranty. Hopefully that is all I need to do. Im going to go make sure so I don't get screwed when they get the phone.
Wow, you've got me scared now, I started to notice the thumping noise a couple days ago and since then I've had to plug my phone in and unplug it a once or twice to get the sound to work. I thought it was just a bug in the new ROM I'm running... Did AT&T send you a new phone or did you have to give yours up to get a new one? I don't think I can live without my phone for a week, it would be like removing my testicals or something :O
I just received my new Incredible and am very excited as it is a huge upgrade from my trusty old Eris. I have one very annoying issue though. The phone randomly turns off on its own, and I have to press and hold the power button multiple times for it to restart. Has anyone else experienced this?
Also, does anyone know how to turn off the annoying 'DROID' noise at startup? I tried the Silent Boot app, but it doesn't seem to work on this device.
Thanks!

Not normal. Make sure a program you installed isn't causing the issue first then think about returning it.
Sent from my ADR6410LVW using Tapatalk 2
Definitely not normal. Perhaps your battery cover is loose?
I used to have to do something really ghetto to my original Incredible while it was near the end of its life. I put a folded business card between the battery and cover so it wouldn't jar itself loose and shut off the phone.
However, does not seem normal at all for a new phone.
The same thing happened to mine a few times. I think the power button is very sensitive. Just a small amount of pressure is needed to close the circuit and if its held that way for over 1 second then phone thinks your trying to initiate a shut-down so it does so.
Just thinking out loud here, not totally sure....

That should pop up the shut down menu though and it sounds as if the OP isn't seeing that. Unless I missed something.

anyone else notice how long it takes to turn the phone one??
I have to hold the power button for what seems like doubt the time for my old rez,inc1,inc1,eris, ect.
kinda annoying lol, feels like its not working or something.

Yes I've noticed it takes a little longer comparing from my Thunderbolt. I can hold pwr button down, count to ten and it starts booting up. But with the Dinc4G, it does take a little longer holding down but it may be a quicker boot up time overall. This from just the two times or so how it seems to me ...I just got it so still acclimating and had already thoughts that the extended battery may be nice to just give me a little more to hang on to .

I received a warranty replacement that did that (randomly turning off). Was irreconcilable after talking with tech support.
My recommendation is to perform factory reset if you can, remove sd card, and see if it works properly.
If not you most likely have a hardware defect of some kind. Return or replace.

I did a factory reset and it still does it randomly. And it only does it when its in my pocket. I thought it was my case (i have the otter box commuter) so I cut it around the power button. Still it happened to me today. About getting a replacement, since it happens randomly far inbetween, there is no way for me to prove there is a problem.

Could you elaborate more about what this screen is?
If you had it you would know what I'm talking about for sure.
If you were just asking in general. It all appears to be a screen that gives you an option to go into download mode after your phones hardware resets. Phone boots into it.
I got a black Demigod screen on my old phone Friday. It was the proverbial straw on a phone that was rebooting itself daily - I exchanged it on the weekend.
The black screen was, I believe, for a kernel panic. I got the same 3 options: Download mode, reboot to normal and something else...
Does your phone get poor battery life. Does it make noise when you squeeze it? I wonder if all these issues are related. You should have your phone replaced. My phone does not give me any of the problems people are talking about
the best phone ever
Yep, I got the yellow screen this morning. I was like WTF is this? Rebooted and all is fine now. We'll see how long it lasts. Any idea what causes this?

Was told in irc that its a mode the phone goes into that allows jtag over usb. If it does it again im just taking this one back too. Everything seems normal after a reboot for me too, something is changing when it happens though because my hosts file reset both times.
Both times it happened i was on sk8s kernel. But i havent seen anyone else on it say anything about it and i was on sk8s on my old phone too and it didnt do it.

All I've done is root, unlock and removed bloat. No other mods on my end so it can't be due to sk8s kernel.

They definitely know more. No doubt about it. At least we know one thing. I got it on stock while others got it on a ROM. So I'd assume that it's a hardware issue or an issue that's buried in the software. See, I just covered all the bases. Lol

All I've done to my phone is root it and unlock it with FreeGee.
EDIT: I had noticed that the phone was acting somewhat strangely the past couple days (slow response, screen not turning on when I press the power button, multitasking screen not appearing/not responsive). Now it seems alright even though I had rebooted the phone prior to the Demigod screen to try and resolve these issues.

Per HTC there is NO overheat alarm. The unit WILL shut down.
BTW mine was also ringing this morning, this is my second DNA that has done this.. Just might account for a dead battery if I forget to plug in at night. Usually I can get 36 to 48 hours on a battery charge.

Unknown cause - only restart stops it
I too have had this problem several times over the past several months. It is not overheating related nor is it an alarm, a roaming alert or anything else I can uncover. It's an alert of some sort, but damned if I can figure out how to stop it other than restarting the phone. HTC told me they have no history of such a thing, but that could be because it is hard to describe the faint ringing type sound. If you have ear buds plugged in, as I did yesterday while listening to music, believe me it AIN'T faint. It was a full blast chirping ring from ear to ear even though i had my media volume set very low so I could hear the paging system at work. I hope somebody figures out what it is because it's annoying and I'm just plain curious as to what is causing it.

Workaround: Make a call and the ringing will stop.
Background:
I don't know a solution to prevent it occurring again later. I've had this phone about 5 months and it has happened probably five times. (It's not been evenly spread out though. When it happened just now it had been long enough since the last time that I had to Google the workaround again.)
I'm adding the workaround here because this is the first link when I Google this problem. And it didn't yet mention the workaround.
Had this happen the other day. Reboot fixes it but that's a stupid problem to have.

I keep finding this going on. A few times now I've noticed my phone discharging fast. I check with Better Battery Stats and find that that I've had "USB CB Wake Lock" going on for hours. I'm not sure but I think it starts while being charged during the night. A reboot shuts it off.
I'm not sure how to catch a log cat of this. Could I start the log when I notice it or would it need to be on when it starts? Or maybe someone out there already knows what's going on with it?
I googled it and found someone who said they needed to replace their USB port. I kinda wonder if I might have an issue with mine. I use it on my car dock almost every time I drive. The cable on my dock is fairly hard to plug in. It doesn't just line up correctly and I have to jiggle it around a little to plug it in. The reason I got this dock is because I can mount my big phone with an Otterbox case on it.
The thing is the wake lock seems to start up while it's on the stock phone charger rather than the car dock.
Maybe it's software related. I use Tweaked VZW Remix I had the PB&J Kernel til yesterday afternoon when I switched back to stock. But this morning I found the wake lock with the stock kernel.
I'd just start up a logcat but if I have to leave it on overnight it'll wind up being huge. I don't know what to do here. Anybody got any ideas?

Saw your post on tweaked thread... Been a while, but I think couple of things to try are... turn phone on before unplugging, try cleaning usb port with toothbrush and/or compressed air (pull battery before doing this). Last resort, replace usb... think it is only around $20? There are videos on how to do this. Not that hard if you're technically inclined at all.
Ok I tried cleaning out the USB port. We'll see. I do have a problem with metal shavings at work and once in a while I find that I've left the USB flap on my Otterbox open. I guess I need to be more careful. I hope that takes care of it. It seems to me like if it was a hardware thing rebooting wouldn't necessarily fix it. But I guess it could.

I found one called USBStorageUnmountter. It's the closest thing to USB CB Wakelock I could find. Is that it?

Well so far so good. Thanks man.
Here's what I have this morning. I found some info that said this happens while charging. That's about how long it was on the charger last night. I guess as long as it's charging while this wakelock is activated it's ok. The reason I've been concerned is I found this reading 1 day & 19 hours once. Maybe it's not a big deal. I'm gonna keep an eye on it. My phone doesn't seem to be discharging fast today.

Ok it's pretty obvious this wakelock is what it does while charging. This morning it added 7 hours to the 7 from yesterday and it shows 14 now. I guess the time it showed all those hours it hadn't been rebooted for a week. There must be another reason for the occasional fast discharge. I guess I need to keep watching this. It's probably about bad signals. It's a good thing we have Better Battery Stats. It's definitely worthwhile.
