I know you've seen that before, but how do i get rid of it ? It comes up, without ascing it, when i make a call, it's on the screen, when i want to turn bluetooth on, it's on the screen, and i don't want it, how do i move it ?
THX
i dont know, i've got that a couple of times before when i tried turning my BT on.. what i did was turn flight mode on then off and it fixes it. i got that message maybe 3 times and i havent got it in a while now.
Hi there
My guess is that you are using a small proggy to turn on/off the flightmode, right? Well, that program does indeed turn off the BT part, but it doesn't always turn it back on again! Try using another switcher, or use the built in flightmode functionality instead.
Hi all,
In recent weeks my bluetooth is turning off when it isn't being used. I only use it for hands free in the car and up until a few weeks ago it always stayed 'On' however now, once disconnected from the car radio, it turns off again.
If I turn it back on away from the car it will go to 'Off' shortly after turning it 'On'.
It's a touch annoying as it means I have to get in the car, turn the engine/radio on, unlock the phone, set bluetooth to 'On' every time I drive and want the phone on hands free.
When connected to the car radio, the bluetooth stays on without problem, so I am not entirely sure what is going on.
I have tried turning battery saver off, restarting the phone etc. but nothing has changed this behaviour.
Has anyone got any suggestions on what I can try next, I'm a bit stuck!
Thanks
I happened many times that HANDS FREE MODE turn on automatically
then i tried to find out why, and i found out under this situation, the HANDS FREE MODE will auto turn on ON MY NOTE 3 (4G version)
1. remember a wifi ap first.
2. turn off the wifi
3. turn on the wifi again
4. immediately turn off the screen before it search n connect to the wifi ap
5. when it connect the wifi ap under the screen is turn off
6. the HANDS FREE MODE turns on automatically itself. weird.....
Everytime when i off work and back home, it connect to my home wifi ap, and the HANDS FREE MODE will turn on itself
It is very annoying...
Anyone has the same problem too???

Whenever I switch from LTE/3G to wifi the Hands Free starts by itself. At first I thought I was touching the home button every time I came home and left the car, was "driving" me crazy... :laugh: But finally figured it was when I changed to my home wifi that it started automatically.

Dasdman, so how do you fix this issue ?
Everytime when i return home and the phone automatically change to home wifi, the hands-free mode turn on automatically
But I want to use my home wifi when i am at home, or my office wifi when i am at office
but i DO NOT want the hands-free mode turn on.
Is there any solution to solve this??? Is this a FLAW ?? a BUG ??
I have not seen a solution or any widespread problem reported. I have confirmed it auto starts when switching from 3G/LTE/4G to WIFI.
same here

Hands-free mode bug
I have the same issue. I bet they call it a feature but it is a bug. I do not need hands-free mode while I am connected to my home wifi. Why would anyone want to have that mode turned on automatically again, after I turned it off?
This is a bug - looking for a solution!
Problem Solved
I found a solution to the problem - at least it worked for me.
Go to location services under settings, chose my places, chose car, select method - none, save.
Now the hands-free mode does not turn on automatically.
Hope this works.

Was having the same issue on my Tmobile N3.
This Works. I remember at one point adding these settings in. Would have never thought that it would do all that. Either way thank you! :good:

You, my friend, are some kind of genius! This thing has been bugging me for weeks! Thank you, from the bottom of my heart!

I found this thread via a search for my issue, which is that I have an S4 (SCH-I545) running MK2 and Hyperdrive and when I put it in the iBolt xPro car dock, 2 instances of HANDSFREE show in the notification panel. A screenshot of the screen when docked.
Itried the actions described in this thread, buit those boxes were already unchecked.
I found on another thread that disabling the S Voice app would help.
Well, turning off the S Voice app did get rid of one, of the two instances of HANDSFREE, in the notification panel, when docked.
Now to figure out how to remove the other....
I have the same exact problem and it's very annoying as it read out messages and answers phone calls sometimes too when it hears people talking in the background
Really stupid I'm thinking to switch to iOS
Hi,
I regularly put my phone and Pebble Smartwatch into flightmode at work. This is always annoying, because I have to do both devices seperately, pull out the phone etc.
With Android Wear I'm hoping I can do it all from the watch.
This is the idea: a small app that I trigger on the Wear Smartwatch, it turns on Flight Mode on the Phone, leaving BT on and then puts the watch in Flight Mode. When I want to reacticate, I simply actuvate the app again, and it turns on BT on the watch, connects to phone and deactivates flight mode.
Are there apps out there that offer this?
Thanks.

Well, If flightmode is on, you can't leave BT on. And i'm not sure that any app can turn on/off the watch BT.
For the phone flightmode, you can use ifttt. Just setup an Android Wear button on "if" and a setting on "then". You should be able to turn WIfi & 3G network off with this app.
How do I stop it? I turn off wifi, but when I put the phone down for a few minutes, it automatically turns it back on. I want control of this, and not the phone.
Anyone?
