I updated last week to the new baseband and 2.3.4, and since then my phone does not automatically go into the car home when I place it in my car dock. Anybody have any idea how I can get it to recognize the dock again? I don't recall having to do anything special when I first purchased the car dock.

How has your experience been with it?
Mine has been fine, my wife's not so much...
My wife's Captivate: WAS very very laggy but 2.2 fixed it. She had zero problems with her GPS but the 2.2 update threw it off about a block : /
My Captivate: Just as smooth as before, and GPS is perfect as was before.
How are you guys enjoying Froyo?
Not quite sure what you mean. I didn't know there was an official one for the captivate sent out? Searched for it and couldn't find it on google. You sure ATT pushed out official 2.2 a month ago?
There is no official froyo yet for the captivate

Correct... Rogers has released their update.
Us down here in the U.S. are still speculating when/if ATT will ever update our devices

Sorry I should have specified Canada : /
It is complete bull$hit that ATT has not given you guys 2.2 I think I would go custom ROM and be done with it.
Just get a new (not refurbished) Captivate instead!

Get another phone. Do not settle on a defective phone. I spoke with someone in the "Office of the President" (a higher level of AT&T customer service) and after checking into the issue, they overnighted me a NEW Captivate (my phone was purchased in August, so I am well out of the 30-days). Their statement was that the defective phones are not supposed to be in the new lots or refurb lots, as it is against their procedures to knowingly sell defective phones. I would suggest taking your complaints there. The number is 1-800-331-0500. Be firm and upset, but be respectful. They will work with you.
Overall its not bad, but I do have a few issues I am still contending with.
When I first did the update I lost navigation all together. I restarted the phone (using a access number Samsung provided me) and solved that issue.
I lost a lot of files that were on my SD card. I haven't been able to figure out why that should be. It's like the update made a point of deleting everything except my media... Oh well
However I am still fighting issues with the both the home and car docks. (Which by the way Samsung Canada doesn't recognize up here and said I am on my own)
The usb audio out worked once and then disappeared on me altogether... Restarting apps and phone isn't helping...
And using the home dock, the phones main screens get stuck in landscape mode (only after doing it all night, if it's only running for a couple hours it's fine) and I have to shut off the phone to get it back to normal. Using Samsung home dock app it was every night. Alarms Plus as well. I am currently using an app called no dock and its down to 25% of the time I don't get stuck in landscape mode. Livable... The car dock I have not gotten stuck in landscape yet, but then I don't think it will ever be in the dock long enough to get stuck...
Which brings me to a point of frustration. Why isn't landscape mode functional outside the dock mode? I love the ability, just not getting stuck there until I reboot... The phone CAN and WILL do it on certain conditions, so why not all the time?
I haven't tried the mass storage mode or tethering yet so I don't know if they are working or I have more issues to deal with.
1) Has anybody noticed that T-Mobile disappeared from signal bar? I live close to the Canadian border and without the logo I don't know when my Phone is roaming. I guess I will have to wait and find out when I would receive my bill.
2) Can anyone confirm that audio in Samsung car mount works after the 2.3 update? As we know it didn't support 2.2, I would like to purchase Samsung car mount but audio connectivity is a necessity for me. If someone could please confirm this, I would highly appreciate it.
Tmobile shows up for me just fine.
Can't help you with the car dock.

I have not had any luck with the car dock with 2.3. I think they forgot to add it in with the update. I just modified my mount and removed the electronics and I plug the USB and aux cable directly into the phone. It was six screws and I saved the parts in hopes that someone figures out how to fix the problem.
So I just installed a digital media reciever in my truck. For those unfamiliar with DMR's, they don't play CD's but only audio from an iPod/mp3 player or Bluetooth audio from a phone. The question I have is I have the unit paired with my phone but doesn't automatically connect. I have to go into the Bluetooth settings and manually connect it every time. I know this isn't something with the DMR as I had to do the same thing with my Supertooth Buddy hands free kit. Is there a fix for BT so that I will connect or is it something related to running a GB rom (I'm on humble 5.0)

I don't have the answer for you, but I have the same problem with my motorola bluetooth earphones. I have to turn bluetooth on and off twice before it will connect.
Yea it gets kind of annoying after a while lol. My girlfriend's incredible 2 syncs to the head unit right away everytime but I have to connect manually
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA App
I am having this problem too. I would love it if someone had a fix.
Unfortunately the bluetooth radio on this phone is bugged, like many other parts of the phone. I could never get it to consistently connect to my truck. It would work for 2 days, and then randomly decide it didnt want to work and I'd have to reboot the phone and manually connect it.
I've never had the issue of it needing to be rebooted but it just won't automatically connect. Only once did it actually connect on its own.

Are you using the phone stock out of the box with EE4? If so that is part of the problem the BT software is a little lacking - If and when you get the OTA update that should fix the issue, or you can manually upgrade. My Charge connects no problem with the DMR I put in my truck
I'm on humble 5.0 and haven't gotten around to going back to stock for the OTA. I may give that a shot in a few. Also what DMR are you using? I'm using a Sony DSX-S300.

I have the same model, but the model number ends in BTX
I do notice that the first time after I flash a new ROM I have to tell it to connect, but after that it connects just fine by itself after that. The only time I had any issue with BT was on EE4 every GB rom I've used has worked fine. I've not used Humble 5, but Humble 4.x worked fine. I do like the DMR in my truck, I also got the external microphone, the jog dial is a tad funky, but I'm getting used to it

I also just flashed the Humble 5.0 ROM yesterday and am having issues with my BT on my truck stereo. I have a Tundra with a stock radio that I have not had any connection issues with at all. I'm going to go to the Humble 5.0 thread to see if I can find anything there.

Yea mine is the S300BTX. For $170 you can't beat it. The jog dial is a little weird to get used to. Thank god it came with a remote lol.
I'm going to try going back to stock since I don't have anything better to do today. I'll report back and let you know if it made a difference.

Hi ,
Newbie here looking for some newbie advice.
Apologies in advance if this has been discussed but i have had a search.
My Daughter has a Disgo 9104 (Ice cream sandwich) which i applied a hack to enable Play store ,BBc iplayer etc
The hack is even semi endorsed on the Disgo site
All is working very well with the functionality of the device. My Daughter loves it.
The problem is that there seems to be a problem with the charger or battery.
I'm hoping its just the charger as i can power up when the charger is plugged in but it doesnt charge and if i move the charger slightly the device shuts down as it has no charge at all.
Anyway , i have just purchased a new charger which will take a day or two to arrive but if its not the charger , can i factory reset it in the hope they wont notice if i send it back under warranty ?
Will the factory reset take me back before the modification ?
The modification i used was from here ---------->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1690929
Apologies again for my lack of forum etiquet.
Hey man I too had the same problem but on a different tablet which is a zeki 7 tablet and yea I think its the charger or the hardware that's mess up and I did factory reset,reboot, all those and non work so its either the charger or hardware or else just look on Google and search your tablet stock Rom and try flashing it....

Hi ,
Thanks for the reply.
Sorry to sound thick but is my Tablets stock rom its operating system ? ie Ice cream sandwich ?
Yea I thinks its the charger cause am sure you didn't have any custom Rom before u hack for Google play and am sure u have stock rom so its probably the charger or your tablet plug whole probably water spilt in there?... But yea let's just hope its the charger that's broken and not some issues related to your tablet hardware.... tell me when u get the new charger.

Hi Again ,
Right , its not the charger. Have a new one here and its still not charging. It will let me use it when plugged in though but if i move it it turns off.
Can anyone point me in the direction where i can get the stock rom it ? I have had a search but i'm not really sure what i'm looking for.
Might just chance it and take it back as is. Will they check to see if its been modded ?
Any advice on this would be appreciated .
Kind regards
Hey guys
I pulled my TF300 out of the box, let it run through updating everything it wanted to update then after rebooting the keyboard dock refuses to work. The power is still there, showing up on the battery monitor and charging the tablet, and it's showing up as being connected, plus the USB port is fine, but there's no response from pressing any keyboard buttons or poking the mouse pad. Before the tablet updated to 4.2 (from whatever it came in the box with) it worked fine since I put in my gmail stuff with it, but now nothing.
I've tried reboots and reconnects and everything basic I can think of. Nothing wants to do anything.
There's so many threads about these problems, but no-one seems to actually have an answer for it, other than just poke and hope something works.
Anyone have an idea what I should do?

This is just a hypothesis, but it's worth the shot.
When you updated the tablet, was the dock connected?
If not, the dock firmware might out dated for your tablets firmware version. I presume that's why on the update notice it advises you to connect your dock; to keep the dock compatible to prevent other users may end up in a situation like yours. Have you tried flashing the latest official rom via fastboot with the Tablet connected? You never know, it might be the solution.
Hope this helped.:laugh:
Live long and prosper.

So did you have any success? The problem might of been caused by the upgrade of the 4.1 bootloader to the 4.2 one whilst not having your dock attached.
