Hello guys,
I am having this issue with my device - sometimes when I press the home button the Voice talk / command powered by Vlingo starts. I always press the button just once (I understand that it should happen when one double-presses the home button) and it is very annoying :-(
Note, that I have Settings/Motion/Double tap turned off as well. Is there any way to fix this or do you have any idea what may be wrong??
Thanks in advance!

while in the motion settings, you can see the tutorial clip and that double tap has nothing to do with the home button, but with double tapping the top side of the device to start voice control instead of saying "hi galaxy". so even with that switched off, your device will react to hitting the home button twice and does not really help diagnose the initial problem.
either you have a slight hardware defect in the home button, a software issue (or maybe user error). since hardware would be more severe, let's see the software side first. what exact rom do you have? device rooted or not? anything that could mess with voice input (connected bluetooth hands free, market vlingo or other tts or stt software installed...)?
also, just to exclude user error, let another person try.
P.S. are there special circumstances when this happens? like only from deep sleep, only when charging, with a connected headset, running certain apps or whatever?

Hello, thanks for your reply. I am running the device with an unmodified SW i.e. stock rom (having a branded phone from orange slovakia), no rooted just some apps installed from the android market. It is XXKE4/XWKE7, running android 2.3.3. I dont use bluetooth or handset nor dock or anything like that.
The issue seems to be completely random to me, while I usually notice it during browsing web with opera, but it happens with more apps. I don't know what is tts or stt sw, nor market vlingo. If you would like to know some more details please let me know what would be relevant for you.
I already thought about the hw issue, but I am not sure if they would accept the warranty claim as it is quite random. I thought there would be some way to completely disable voice talk as I dont expect to use it anytime in the future anyway...
As of the user error, it happens both to me as well as to my gf while using the phone for common internet use.

ok, that gave us something to work with. for future reference, when asking a question like this, it might speed up the process by giving as much information in the initial post as possible and let me explain why:
the fact that you use your unrooted stock rom tells me, that it is not a common and maybe reported bug that comes with a custom rom, and with an unrooted device, it is rather unlikely, that you screwed up a system component like this.
bluetooth, docks and handfrees could influence the voice input and its triggering by having their own triggers, but that is not the case.
if it happens to other people with your phone as well, it excludes your personal behaviour, tremors or whatever (no offense, you never know, just to cover everything, some people are shaky).
if it happened only in a special state, like only while sleeping for a minute or while charging, it would ensure, that it has something to do with deep sleep.
about the other things: with tts i was referring to text to speech, the engine that reads out display content, like incoming calls, text messages or navigation instructions, stt refers to speech to text, like voice input, saying hi galaxy, telling where to navigate or dictating notes...
vlingo is the engine that is used for voice talk and voice command and there is also a 3rd version, that can be downloaded on the android market, coming with yet other features and having them all present and maybe screwed up settings might have influenced anything there, however, this doesn't seem to be the case either.
so this leaves few options for how to proceed. in your place i would start off with reading this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1097153
it deals with home button issues and a theory on how the home button sometimes might react as much as 15-30 minutes later than initially pressed, which might coincide with an actual press and being registered as a double press (although that's a stretch at best).
and when it comes to a next step, if you made sure, that does not apply to you, i would be uncertain, which way to go. a factory reset might help, but if, after hours of setting the device up again, you realize there has not been any change, it was nothing but work. then there are 2 things left:
either flash a newer rom using odin and any rom from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1075278 (full guide and download links included)
OR decide to send it in for warranty first and see what's what.
flashing a rom might solve your problems but influence your warranty state, if not done correctly and cautiously, which would make sending it in risky.
sending it in first and not getting that bug recognized or repaired for free would mean you might end up with weeks without your phone and/or a huge bill and the same issue as before.
i guess i would get a usb jig, read up on flashing, try several stock roms, not root the device and see if the bug is gone, if not, flash back to stock, make sure the flashing is not traceable and then try a local store or your carrier for a hardware replacement or repair.
Ok so I want to convey all the relevant information without this being a mile long.
I have a o2 UK SGS2 running on a 3 sim. I have flashed on Lite'ing 6.1 with ninphetmaine 2.0.5. Up until the following, everything has been 100%.
This morning I downloaded Destinia and played it for a while. Before quitting I took a quick look at in app purchases to see if they charge ridiculous prices (they do). I'm not interested so I quickly spam back to close everything. This is when **** ****s up. OS becomes unresponsive immediately and I have no choice but to pull the battery. (power menu disappears instantly, no registered actions from soft keys or menu button in OS). No change on reboot.
I try reflashing Lite'ning. Mostly no change but I got the chance to get into task manager and uninstall Destinia/Launcher Pro.
I reinstall launcher pro, and now it works most of the time except:
1. Quite frequently the voice action app will load itself, and the unlock notification will pop up.
2. MTP notification will appear occasionally and phone will act like it's plugged in
3. Random Launcher/OS crashes. Sometimes screen on but no response from apps or OS. Sometimes screen won't turn on at all, just softkeys and darkness.
4. at first unlock after boot, camera makes standard focusing sound.
5. on boot, little popup dialog will read "in app purchases not supported in this version of android".
Really I doubt there's going to be any solution other than "wipe and reflash" but I'm really interested if anyone knows what would cause all these problems.
Cheers

Whatever that means looks to be the source of your problem..

what this means is that pressed back from the game's in app purchases screen, back to the main menu and then back to the Launcher, I'm sure everyone has done basically this countless times.
Fine but my dictionary defines spam as a different meaning .
But as posted that's where it all went wrong for whatever reason .

Right I wipe-flashed stock 2.3.5 and it's STILL doing this. Voice actions popping up at random, all sorts of apps crashing and hanging all the time.
This has to be a hardware problem now, right?
just a stab in the dark but run a virus check.
I've never had a virus in my life, but I checked anyway and nothing.
Right so I've been watching my phone today. It's still doing random voice action popups. If I leave the phone on standard standby it will be fine for a while. It will then randomly turn on the screen by itself. The screen will stay on, if i leave it long enough the whole thing become totally unresponsive. If I press power the phone will wait a few seconds, then restart. If I don't touch it, it will just restart on its own eventually.
Can anyone recommend at least, some logging software that will let me look at the underlying OS and see what's happening when this is going on.
Is there any possibility your phone also goes to car-mode by itself?
spare parts app??
Your phone is more or less doing the same thing as mine is. It's a hardware issue from the seems of it. The voice command thing is from a dirty pin in the USB connector part which apparently isn't that hard to clean, for users in the thread below it actually helped to solve the issue. But my persisting issue is the unresponsive screen and power button causing an active screen to dim out and making the screen unresponsive..

Read your thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1278790 and your problems are down to the letter the same. I've resigned myself to it being a hardware fault and put in a service request with samsung. Wish I had better news.
Yea me too. My issue is that my SGSII was manufactured in UK so I'm at odds seeing as how I'm in America. The people at the Samsung call center referred me to the UK number so I guess I will have to bits the bullet.
Howdy! I peruse the forums quite a bit to figure out little fixes for my phone, but there are a couple problems that I haven't quite been able to find proper solutions for.
The first problem deals with the phone randomly shutting down (usually only when it's in my pocket). I've seen other posts regarding the topic, but the OPs usually stated that simply holding the power button would effectively turn the phone back on, or that the phone doesn't shutdown but rather reboots. My phone completely shuts down and requires that I take the battery out, wait 10-15 seconds, put it back in, and then hold the power button for an extended period of time in order for the phone to start up. The battery doesn't get extremely hot. It's usually around ~33-35C when it does this, but when I look at some of the other posts with similar problems, their batteries are ranging withing ~38-42C. I have seen that it may be a faulty battery, as shown in the other posts, but as I mentioned my problem is slightly different.
The second problem deals with streaming videos on browsers. Before the ICS update, I was able to stream videos on any browser, but after that OTA update I cannot. I have tried multiple browsers, including Dolphin, Firefox (my main browser), and Opera. I heard it may have to do with flash not supporting android anymore (after 4.0.x, whereas I'm only running 4.0.3), but I have checked my phone and I have Flash 11.1 already installed. The settings on my browsers are to enable plug-ins on tap (means that I would tap a video to start it, right?).
Lastly, as of now, I'm having a WiFi issue. It's not so much of an issue as a hindrance, though. Basically, I'm pretty much always in a WiFi zone, either being at home or on campus. When I get home from uni, WiFi automatically connects, no problem. When I'm at the uni, it will connect as soon as I get on campus, but when I walk from building to building, it loses connection and makes me reconnect. I go to hit reconnect, and it demands some credential password which I have never set. If I hit forget so that I can forget and reconnect to the network, it wants me to put in my screen unlock pattern. I draw the pattern to unlock it, but then it sort of refreshes and my pattern is gone and it doesn't let me continue with the process, so I have to go back to the home screen, back into settings, and clear credentials. Some posts said to continue to input incorrect passwords to allow a credential storage password reset, but that did not work. Some posts said to clear credentials, so I do that, but then I have to continuously type my login information whenever I move from class to class, which gets pretty irritating. The only way to connect to the WiFi is by disabling and reenabling the WiFi. Like I said, it's not a huge issue, rather a hindrance.
As for my phone specs, I'm not really a super tech so I haven't messed with anything. The phone is not rooted and is running Android 4.0.3. It is, however, unlocked, and I'm running it on ATT's network if that makes a difference.
Let me know if I've posted in the wrong section or anything, and if I have, I apologize. I'm not one for posting on forums, rather one to creep around and hopefully find solutions.
Thanks for your time.
Hi there.
I also want to join this topic:
1. my HTC amaze also shuts down randomly.
2. but the main thing is: can anybody help me with this WiFi issue? I can connect and use WiFi in the street, at McDonald's, at different places with public WiFi, but when it comes to connect to WiFi at my home or at other places where the WiFi is PASSWORD PROTECTED, my phone jams the network and i have to turn off WiFi on the phone and restart the WiFi router to have everything working again.
Somebody, please help
thanks in advance.

Since you are stock, the only thing being that your phone is unlocked, I would say this is either a config issue or a HW issue. The simplest thing to do is to clean the battery contacts, as there is a small chance that something got on them and is causing the battery to drop out. You can also look at the battery meter in the settings menu and see if you have a sudden drop in battery power or if it entirely cuts out. May give some clues to what's going on. Finally the only other thing I can think of is to uninstall any apps that save power or mess with the power settings on the phone.

Streaming video doesn't work for me, it will for a couple seconds and then die. So now I just open all links in the youtube app, which isn't perfect but it's good enough.

This has got to be either a config issue or a bug in how your phone handles your uni's wifi. Your uni will have multiple wifi APs with the same SSID (but on different channels) so that you can walk around and still remain connected. My guess is that there is a bug in the wifi drivers that don't like what your uni is doing, but it's really hard to say since that stuff is generally pretty complicated...
If you can't get your power issue fixed easily I would recommend you factory reset your phone. Don't install any apps for a couple days and see if your problems persist. If the power one does then take your phone in for warranty repair. The wifi one could be a bug, which would mean a warranty repair isn't going to do anything for that so you may be screwed on that one. Unless you want to hack your phone and load a new ROM; there is a slim chance that an updated ROM will not have the same bug.

Thank you very much for the in depth reply. I'll take a look at the battery connections some time tomorrow as it's pretty late today. Do you have any recommendations as what to clean them with? I heard erasers are pretty good cause they have the "stickiness" to pick up grime, but wouldn't the rubber inhibit connectability?
The video thing isn't too big of an issue, but eh, a fix would be nice. If there's nothing that's known of atm, that is fine as well.
As for the WiFi, I didn't know if it was a bug or something I could fix internally. It's good to know, though, that it's not something I seem to have messed up myself haha.
Once again, I greatly appreciate the response!

The contacts won't be corroded because they are gold, however it could be either they aren't springy (ie they got bent) or that something is stuck on them. Just take a look, make sure they look fine and that they are making a good connection. It's most likely not the issue but you just want to rule that out, as it would obviously cause problems if your battery was being disconnected
So, as an update, I managed to fix the battery issue by actually turning my phone around in my pocket (Strangely enough, I found that if I keep the screen away from the leg and the power button facing up, rather than the screen towards my leg, the phone does not turn off.). All that's left is to find a fix for the video and WiFi. The WiFi problem has actually started to become more significant, as WiFi is no longer automatically connecting to my home internet anymore. Sometimes at uni, as well, the phone requires a complete reboot before it will reconnect rather than a WiFi off -> WiFi on reset. Any more input would be greatly appreciated ^.^
I had same restart Issue
I don't know why or how it works.
Just put a piece of paper below the battery and the restart problem is solved
Flash a kernel and see maybe the modules are messed up

I don't know why changing how the phone is situated in your pocket would solve the issue unless you were somehow unknowingly keeping the power button pressed down for long periods of time.
I will say I had the same issue and my suspicions lead me to the battery. Indeed, I bought a new battery and the issue has been resolved. There must have been some sort of short or default in the battery I was using that would cause my phone to randomly shut down or reboot..
Whats up XDA,
I joined this forum just to get some serious help. (If this is posted in the wrong area could someone move it...I'm a new guy here.)
I bought my Samsung Galaxy Tab SCH-i800 so that I can mount it within my car dashboard so I can use it for music, navigation, and to be able to use the torque app with my car. My plan is to run tasker so that when the car is on (or when the tablet gets a charge) it automatically turns on and stays on. And then when the car is turned off (or when there is no charge) the screen turns off, and then after an hour of inactivity it automatically turns off. I noticed that to be able to automatically turn on/off the tablet requires to be rooted, and while I am rooting it I figured I'd upgrade it from 2.3 to 4.0 or higher.
Now, I've done my fair share of computing: I'm familiar with torrents, keygens, cracks, I've also accomplished several circuit board repairs for my car stereo, car window switches, and my macbook. But when it comes to software I'm more of an apple person, windows and android frustrate me.
So, back on track...this whole Root thing is driving me completely crazy!! I really don't get it. I've been working on it for like 4 days straight!!!!
I've been looking all over the internet, trying to figure out this stupid heimdall program, looking all over this forum, I've probably clicked over a hundred broken links. Gaaaahhh!!!! I did some research I thought a one click root would be super easy and resolve my frustration....
I tried superoneclick, didn't work.
z4Root: didn't work.
Gingerbreak: didn't work.
So now, after doing more looking around I've been following these two video's which seemed to finally take me somewhere!
1. youtubeDOTcom/watch?v=WPXCTzChhSc
2. youtubeDOTcom/watch?v=xQ3_wth1hSM
After following them (I've been using the download links from video 1, and following the steps in video 2) I'm at the 10:40 mark on video 2 and I go to boot up my tab and nothings changed, and more importantly the touch screen is way the hell off! up is left, down is right, right is up, and left is down! and also it won't power off, it seems like it powers down, it shows the verizon logo and makes the sound, but immediately after that your back at the home screen.
This is insane!!!!!!
This whole root and upgrade process is just killing me!!!!
Is there anyone out there who has rooted their Galaxy Tab SCH-I800 that can walk me through EXACTLY what they did?!
Does anyone know of any alternatives to my problem??? Can I shut down my device without having to root it? When its in the dashboard I can't hit the power button that's why I need this to work.
When i got this device i thought how stupid this was and hoped after flashing a custom rom maybe it would eliminate this stupid feature of this device. It seems HTC thinks it's a good idea to turn the screen ON after ending a phone call, WTF?
At work i use my bluetooth headset all day with my phone in my pocket. I will take my phone out, dial the number i want to speak to, press power to turn screen off, put device in pocket and have my conversation. I end the phone conversation with my bluetooth headset and guess what? The dang phone's screen turns on while it is in my pocket. I guess the light sensor has zero effect here! So now since this happens and my device has a timeout of 2min i set before screen turns off my phone accidentally "butt dials" people and without me knowing i'm now calling people randomly while i'm working!
Another case. I have my phone in my car's cupholder, i use bluetooth to make a call with my car, it initiates the call to my phone and again it turns the screen ON to make the call. WHY? I never pressed power on my device to turn the screen on to make a call. So again i press the power button to turn screen off while in call. I hang up the call when i'm done via the bluetooth in my car and again the device turns the screen back ON once i disconnect the call via bluetooth.
I just don't understand the logic behind this? Is this some HTC thing or all android? Coming from iPhone 4 never had this issue so was a first for me with this device. Just don't see the reason or logic for this?
Anyway to prevent this or stop this from happening? I mean isn't that the point of bluetooth to not need to touch your device thus no need for the screen to be turned on????
+1
It seems that this is not a HTC thing because I have the same behavior on my Samsung device. Same problem as well with pocket dialing during/after a call. Really annoying. I had the same thing on my old HTC Nexus One running Froyo, so this is not a new bug. Back then I tried a lot of different apps, and none helped. I even flashed CyanogenMod on it and it didn't change anything.
I really hope someone has run across a fix whether it's an app, a patch or a whole new ROM, because pulling my phone out of my pocket to turn the screen back off TWICE for every call I make or receive is getting to be a pain.
I can't believe this behavior is voluntary on the part of the designers. If it is, please someone explain why.
You can use TASKER(automation app at Play Store ) to Get you screen off after a call or while connected to the bluetooth ..

Just downloaded but no idea how to use this thing. Not very saavy with this type of stuff. How can I use tasker to turn the screen off when ending a call ONLY while connected to a Bluetooth headset? This is my biggie since it's in my pocket.
Got it to work
Ok, I downloaded Tasker and I'm impressed.
Here's how I got this to work:
1: Create new profile using STATE, then go to NET, then hit BLUETOOTH CONNECTED. Here you can specify if you want only a specific device or any Bluetooth.
2: Set new task: SET plsLock to ON
3: Set exit task: SET plsLock to OFF
4: Create new profile using EVENT, then go to PHONE, and hit PHONE OFFHOOK.
5: Set new task as: SCREEN, SYSTEM LOCK
6: Hit IF, and specify if plsLock is ON
7: Create new profile using EVENT, then go to PHONE, and hit PHONE IDLE.
8: Set new task as: SCREEN, SYSTEM LOCK
9: Hit IF, and specify if plsLock is ON.
You're done.
Since I had the same problem with the wired headset, I also created a profile with HARDWARE, HEADSET that sets the variable plsLock to ON and exit task sets it back to OFF. You can name the variable anything you want and it will still work.
If anyone has a better/simpler way of programming this, please share. I just started using this program and am still trying to wrap my head around the way this is structured.
As this stands, it works... But it's still a patch on something that should be an option in Android.
Let me know what you think.
Ok thank you I'll give it a try. Yeah could never understand why my device thinks it's a good idea to turn screen back on after ending a call via Bluetooth or not? I receive call, I then press power button to turn screen off bit continue my call, the caller hangs up, boom my screen turns on displaying the phone dialer until my time out settings turn screen off. Dumbest feature I swear. Hello phone I pressed power offbutton to turn screen off, get the hint and keep screen off until I press power button and want it back on again. No sense...
Deeznuts, did you manage to get it working with tasker ? I guess it is the only possible way to get to your objective. Learning Tasker will give a new dimension to your phone. More over I will try to make a profile for your and get working .

No unfortunately not. I would greatly appreciate that! I would think it's a simple task but honestly I'm very handicapped when it's comes to stuff like this.
Basically a string for tasker that would simply just do this:
When my device is connected to a Bluetooth device whether it be my car kit, headset, stereo headset, etc. and a phone call ends where by me pressing the End Call on screen button, by ending call with car kit, headset, etc, doesn't matter but will make the screen turn off. That's it.
When connected via Bluetooth, a phone call ends, screen turns off.
Now here's a kicker and not sure if this part would be harder. I'm connected via Bluetooth headset or device, I have screen on to manually make a phone call, then while on the call I press the power button to turn screen off while on call and put device in my pocket. Now when the call eventually ends I would want the screen to stay off.
I will read into the link you provided and mess with it somewhere. Thank you for your time and help.
Correct me if I am wrong , you mean to say that no matter what you want your screen to stay off after a call ...

Correct BUT only when connected to a Bluetooth device. My gripe is on a Bluetooth call, place a call manually then talk on headset, car kit, etc. I press power button to turn screen off then put phone back in pocket, when call ends the phone turns screen back on for some reason. Never understood this?
