How to completely deactivate CAR MODE? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My usb-jack is broken so every few seconds the car mode activates and deactivates right away. It is very annoying because it turns the display on and drains my battery. I dont want to repair it because it is an old galaxy s3 and i will buy a new phone in near future. i found apps that prevent the green car mode screen to pop up but a black screen still pops up. Is there a way to uninstall/deactivate car mode completely?
I use LineageOS 14.1 on my rootet i9300

[Q] screen doesn't timeout after full charge

so when ever the tab is fully charged the screen turns on and wont go of until i click the lock button.
i don't have power savings mode. timeout is set to one min. and no auto adjust screen power. 3.2 stock rom
i cant find any settings to adjust this specifically so i don't know what this is. i just don't like the idea of the tab sitting for hours with screen on
EDIT: also noticed that if i put to charge screen wont go of, just fades after the 1 min timeout. i must manually turn it of. i.e push lock button
Hi.
I haven't noticed anything like that when I have been using stock Rom...
If you put tablet to charge did the big-clock screensaver shows up?
If so, you must press back on the bottom tab to let it go away and then it wil fade out and turn off the screen after timeout you have set up in settings...
The only time when screen goes on after charging and stay in that state is when charging with Tablet switched off {big battery charging indicator show up...}...
is it the lock screen your talking about, if so then yes. tab is put to charge and locked. then when full it makes a sound then shows lock screen and fades a bit after some time, but doesn't turn of. screen is of until fully charged. then turns on.
Hmm... this doesn't seems to be normal. On my tab, when fully charged it just make a sound and doesn't unlock or light up the screen...
Which country are you from and what ROM are you using? This might be an unwanted "feature" of branded ROM from some operator/provider...
Maybe if you are planning to Root and give your Tab some nice new ROM from here, your problems will be solved...
im planing on rooting as soon as CM9 is done. im in norway. we dont have operators/providers screwing up our phones like in the states.

What if I *really* want the screen to sty off?

I use my Galaxy S3 (VRBMD3) as a GPS logger on battery. What if I have to have the screen stay off? Right now I'm having trouble with it coming back on in my pack. I have a Samsung flip cover. I don't know what triggers it. If I have to modify some code to disable the power button turning the display back on, I could handle that, but I don't know if that is triggering it.
I also don't want the screen to come on when a charger is plugged/unplugged or when it completes charging.

[Q] Display timeout in car mode

Hello.
I couldn't find answer to my question anywhere, so I decided to start a new thread.
I have original Samsung car dock for my Galaxy S2 running stock JB 4.1.2 with root (Siyah kernel 6.0b5). I'm using it mostly as a trigger for Tasker (connect to bluetooth hands-free) and to record my routes (using AutoGuard). I rarely use it for navigation, so I don't need screen to be on all the time. Unfortunately, when I put my phone in car dock (and/or car mode), the screen stays on all the time. I tried to set display timeout using tasker, but with no luck - the screen just stays on.
My question is: how can I turn on screen timeout while my phone is in a car dock/car mode, so screen automatically turns off after specified time (e.g. 1 minute), just like when it isn't in car dock/mode?
Any help would be appriciated

Samsung LED View Cover

Hello everyone,
I have been using the "Samsung LED View Cover" for my Galaxy S9 for a while. Normally the lock screen pops off when I open the cover, but occasionally the lock screen stays on, and then I have to unlock with my finger. This is not really a disaster if it happens occasionally. But since yesterday my lock screen always stays on when I open the cover. And that is very annoying. I have no idea why this is, and I have not changed anything in the settings. Does anyone have problems with this? Can anyone help me?
Tnx.
