Dock mode status - fixed in new firmware? - Galaxy S III General

Just wondering if the issues with phone not entering car mode when docked have been sorted.
Waiting for my inspire 4g dock to be delivered and wondering if I need to switch from stock. Just put on emb UK firmware so hopefully that will have helped.
If not can anyone suggest decent rom/kernel that supports this.

Random reboots

Hello, I've installed the Virtuous Galaxy rom on my Iconia and have now encountered a strange (possible) bug.
When I wake my tablet up, I can see that tthere's no Wireless connection. So I go into Settings to make sure the wireless is connecting, then my screen goes black and the flashing ANDROID appears. It's there for a few seconds only and then I'm back to the lock screen with no wireless.
I left the tablet alone to see what would happen and it just cycles through the lock screen & 'reboot'. I can't connect to wireless to download Ti Backup so I'm guessing a full Wipe & re-flash is in order.
Does anybody have some kind of idea as to what could be happening??
Please don't tell me i have to re-flash, my boyfriend just clocked Cut the Rope!!

This is not a problem with the galaxy rom as I was experiencing the same issue on the early release 3.1. I fixed mine by disconnecting from the wireless network (must be quick to access settings and disconnect before the tab reboots) then forget the network and power cycle your router..you should then be able to reconnect without the random reboots. Hope this helps

This is not an issue with the galaxy rom. Check your wifi settings as mine is set to always on. Also what kernel are you using as the random reboot issue was solved from unity v3. Sounds like a bad flash to be honest. Always wipe cache and dalvik cache when flashing the rom.

If the kernel I'm using is wrong, what kernel *should* I be using? I've never had to fiddle around with kernels before.

This worked like a charm; thanks!
Can anybody tell me what kernel I should be using?
And is there a decent reason to upgrade from Virtuous 1.0.1 to 1.0.2?

Honestly take a look at the rest of the galaxy thread it will give you a indication of what problems to expect.

I'm not really experiencing any problems as such now that I know how to deal with the weird WiFi thing.
What I'm interested in now is the kernel.

So i am mailing my xoom in for service.

My xoom is "freezing". The only way to make it unfreeze is to hit the power button the turn it back on. I found it happens when holding it at cretin angles.
Has anyone else had this problem?
really, no one but me has had this problem?

More details are needed. Are you rooted? Are you on a custom ROM? When did it start? What was the last app you downloaded to your device? When exactly is it freezing up? (Example: When opening email, browser etc)
When you reboot how long does it take to freeze up? More details dude.
No its a hardware problem. I just wanted to see if anyone else had the same problem. I was rooted.. non rooted... it does not mater. It is just broken. I just wanted to know if it was a common problem... i guess its not. Moto is sending me a new one..

It's not necessarily a hardware problem. The software is what flips the screen to landscape/portrait as a result of the hardware signals, so it could be either which is why he was asking for your software specs.
Sorry. I am on stock 3.2.1 and it is doing it and getting worse. It did it on all the Roms I used (all 4) as well rooted stock rom. So I'm pretty sure its hardware.

[Q] Working in Australia for a few weeks...no way the Epic works there, right

This is just a shot in the dark but I was hoping to avoid having to buy a sim card for my crappy travel phone again. Am I correct in assuming that, apart from WiFi, there's no way I'll be able to use my Epic while in Australia?

Out Of Service Problem

hello, im new to the xda community and android and i was hoping i could get help if possible so i bought this atrix off a friend for $60 just to start getting into android, so the problem is that when i insert a sim card and the bars are crossed out. i tried reflashing the baseband/radio to newer ones but the problem persists and keeps saying out of service under settings-> about phone-> status. also under network type says unknows, so i was hoping it has a fix which for the price i payed for i like it as a media player but im also looking to use the hspa+ speeds. yesterday i did get 1 bar and carrier name but for only 1-2 seconds.
edit: im trying to use it on at&t (forgot to mention the carrier)
this is what i get...
What network are you trying to use it on?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
im using at&t
go to settings-wireless-mobile-networks
access point names push the four squares button on the bottom left reset to default and choose hspa+
this is a flashable apn.ziphttp://db.tt/C0OdFBWr reset apns to default afterward and try to reinsert sim and power up
I'll try this tomorrow since im not near a computer right now and i'll post the results.

I have a very week signal at home, and I see the same screen like yours
so make sure you have a strong signal before you determine it's a h/w issue
thanks for all your guy's help, i ended up giving the phone to my brother so he can use as a media player. i really liked the phone so im probably going to get a working one
do you guys suggest another phone other than the atrix (looking for a 4g/hspa+ one)

[Q] Nfc enabled?

My gf has the att g2, but when i try and toggle nfc in the status bar or settings menu it doesnt seem to enable.
Anyone else having this problem? Or is her phone defective.

Just returned the phone to stock. Nfc was working for the first few minutes. Then it decided to stop working and wouldnt reenable.
Guess we will exchange for a new phone tomorrow.
