[Q] After unplugging earphones, phone switches silent mode off - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everybody
Whenever I was listening to music, stopped it and anplugged my earphones, my phone is no longer in silent mode! Somehow soundmode gets activated automatically. Seems not to be a big deal for most of you but I'm afraid I once forget to switch back to silent mode and someone calls me during a conference which would be embarrassing ...
Does anyone else encounter this problem? Bug or feature? :cyclops:

Dunno if you're willing to spend some money, there's an app called tasker. I might try factory reset first.
Had some problem where play music started playing music after I turned off the radio.. But that got sorted after I flashed another rom.

AW: [Q] After unplugging earphones, phone switches silent mode off
It seems that it occurs only when using Poweramp as music player. Tried DoubleTwist, MusicXMatch and Android Music Player but it never happened afterwards. Seems to be a Poweramp-related problem i've already tried reflashing, fullwipe, ...

Can't unmute media volume

Yesterday I tried to play music in my truck via aux cable and it wouldn't work, didn't think much of it. Tried playing music this morning and the volume won't go up. I go into settings and turn media volume all the way up but it doesn't take effect. Go back there in settings and it's muted. Anyone know what's going on? Ringtones, notification sounds, etc. all work.
edit> at the moment it works. I went into Spiderman 3D game to see if sound worked in games, as soon as the game loaded music started playing, which is weird.
You sure you don't have a toggle switch for vibrate or mute setup? If you don't, try adding one and unmute.

Yeah nothing was working. Maybe it was some random glitch with that game. I turned that game on yesterday waiting for my girlfriend to finish getting her nails done, showing off the 3D to some other poor sap waiting for his woman. Noticed the music issue after that.
Often times little glitches like this are solved by a simple reboot. Or even wiping cache/dalvik and then rebooting.

music automatically starts

so i have this little problem... dont know why the music player starts automatically. It's not very frequent but could be very annoying if it turns on in my sleep or unexpectedly. Please help
This has happened to me couple of times, not sure what triggered it.
it's getting very annoying now.. anyone help please ... i dont wanna regret for buying this phone
Seriously? This is getting hilarious...
It's under settings.. The music will start as soon as they are plugged in..
Not sure about stock music amp but in poweramp you can change this setting to stop it doing this.
Hope this helps a bit.

Problems with Ford Sync Bluetooth audio ICS 4.0.4

Hi everyone, was wondering if anyone has had any problems with audio being streamed through Ford Sync? After about a half hour or so of streaming or playing audio my phone freezes and reboots. I have tried 4 or 5 different roms and every single one of them has this problem. Thanks for your help!

I stream BT audio using Rdio service with my Sync (Ford MyTouch). I can't say that I've ever had that problem after using it for a while. I am using the xXx ROM.
Never had a problem.

No problems with my CM9 builds streaming to my 2010 Ford Focus, the audio quality is good and the steering wheel controls work.
Havent had a problem with streaming to Ford sync. Does it just do it when streaming to your Sync, or does it lock up doing anything else, ie playing thru headphones, or speaker.
Ford sync is buggy, could try rebooting your sync, you can do that yourself by pulling the fuse for it for a few mins.
It doesn't do it with headphones or a usb cable. It only does it when I am streaming audio through the Sync. It wouldn't freeze and reboot when I was on gingerbread, only on ICS.

2009 Ford Focus - AT&T Skyrocket ICS 4.0.4
I can't seem to pair my phone to my Focus since updating with the official AT&T released ICS 4.0.4 version. It worked fine before... I will try pulling the fuse soon and trying again.
Mine will pair, I have an F150 and Expedition. Both will pair, but no longer connect automatically. I can manually force them to connect, but not automatic. I have reset the car (pull positve cable from battery for 30 seconds) and then paired the phone again. Still nothing. My wife has a Galaxy S2 on 4.0.2 and it works just fine. Something goofy with the Note and 4.0.3 bluetooth drivers.
I can pair it just fine, the phone freezes up about a half hour into my audio playback. I can stop it from freezing if I stop the audio before it hits the 30 to 35 minute mark and hit play again.

So after testing my Bluetooth audio with cm9, the phone never froze or rebooted. Makes me wonder if the Bluetooth drivers for the stock roms are bad? Would anyone know how to get updated or better drivers? Thanks again!

I have this issue when I am streaming audiobooks, podcasts, or even a long youtube thing when streaming to my After market Sony stereo. It happens pretty much every 38 minutes like clockwork. After the 2nd freeze, I lose data connectivity until I do a full reboot. When it freezes, it seems like it doesn't do a full reboot for me, as I never see any booting animations. Just a frozen screen, a few seconds of black then back to the lock screen.
This *does not* happen when streaming Google Music. It seems like it's only when I'm playing the same audio piece for over a half hour. This is using Audible and BeyondPod. I can't recall which kernal I'm using, but I do remember it is the same one the last 2 roms where I've had this issue, so I have no idea if it even can be kernal related or not.
Yeah that is the problem that I am having as well. If I stop the audio before it hits the 38 minute mark then it won't reboot. cm9 so far hasn't made my phone freeze. I wonder if people are having the same problem on the att official update?

I have exactly the same problem on rooted stock Telus 4.0.4 rom. My bluetooth device is JVC car radio. Can someone fix the title of the thread to remove "Ford Sync" reference? It looks like the problem is more generic.
I never had an issue connecting to my 2011 Escape until ICS. If i manually did a connect, it was fine, but no automatic connect with ICS. After I did an unpair, delete the connect from phone and car, then performed a new pair, it was fine.

[Q] cm9 ringtone on head phones/ car aux wire

Im not sure if any one else has this problem. I tried to search the forum to get a solution. But cudnt find any. I was using cm9 stable build last week and faced this weird problem that while listenin to music in car, my phone didnt play the ringtone when someone was calling me. Had the phone placed on the other seat and later saw that i had 5missed calls and my phone didnt pause the music to play the ringtone and it only vibrated. Tried using stock earphones. Still the same. The phone was only vibrating even though the sound wasnt selected to be off. Can anyone help?

[Q] bluetooth has no sound in either car

The bluetooth sound on my phone went out while I was on a paired phone call in the car. The phone has no problem pairing with 2 cars, but will not play any sound with either a phone call or bluetooth music in either car now. When I try to make a call the call is routed to the car but neither the sound or the microphone seem to work. If I switch back to the phone's speaker, everything is fine again. Can anyone help me with this?
I have unpaired the phone with the car and re-paired.
I have done a master reset on the car audio receiver.
I have made sure that the media volume is at maximum level.
I am trying not to do a master reset on the phone because I dont want to add the apps and games again.
I am NOT rooted, running software version 2.13.651.1710RD.
Do a soft reset. Hold power and.up volume till it shuts done. 10 secs or so...bottom.lights will blink but ignore. Once off power it.back.on. this happened to me and I almost returned my.Bluetooth headphones. It worked perfect.after

Yeah as I was typing the question and thinking of the troubleshooting steps I had already taken, I realised that I had not don a simple re-boot. I re-booted and went to the car and everything was perfect. Thanks for the response.:thumbup:
