Hi all,
Just love the Sensation - but some of the enhancements I have found also have a sting in the tail. Anyone give me any pointers for these?
When riding my motorcycle, I have the Sensation plugged in to crash helmet headset. Found "Not Another Call Manager" to give me phone auto-answer. Normally I have my music on, and when a call comes in it gets auto-answered. Every thing fine - yes, really fine.
Small problem is that when I get kitted up, I turn on the music and slip the phone in my breast pocket. Sometimes as I slip it in, the phone decides to redial the last number, alternatives are music switching off or selecting the next track.
I understand the music oddities - swipe left/right gets you next track and also pause is available - just odd that it does this with the screen turned off. But I don't understand where the phone comes in - I can't find anywhere that you can just swipe the screen in any particular direction to get last number re-dial.
I have now bought a leather wallet to put the sensation in whilst riding, but it didn't stop a "pocket call" first thing this morning, even through the sensitivity seems to be greatly reduced.
All comments, help and guidance welcomed

Check in the settings to see if something is enabled that would change the track if you shake the phone.
That seems to be the most likely culprit.

i have the exact same problem when riding my bike. the issue is that the phone will pickup the headset connection and freak the **** out and start auto dialing. Mine is worse, it will call and hang up > 3 secs of music > call and hang up > 3 seconds of the next track > loop like this till I pull over and unplug my headset.
The issue is with the headphone jack and somehow its sensing commands as if you have a remote plugged into the line.
i haven't found a way to stop it. Somedays i get by with no problems, while others I will have to pull over 2-3 times on the way to my destination

Great call! I have had this a few times too, but didn't realise it was the jack connector - I thought it was the act of slipping it into the pocket. Makes a lot of sense as when I use my bluetooth headset (not configured for the bike) everything works perfectly. May have to consider going BT on the bike.
However, once I am up and running I don't think it happens at all.
I have this problem but I don't ride a motorbike - I just get it when I'm walking along with the phone in my trouser pocket.
Ok, so here is the Scenario, I'm in the gym and using my phone to listen to music...
First I put my phone on Silent (so it doesn't ring during my work out and annoy everyone around me)
Next I turn on Bluetooth and connect my stereo Bluetooth headphones to my phone
Now I'm listening to music and all is well... AWESOME
Here is the weird thing..... Whenever I get a call.... technically my phone is silent so it should not be ringing, right? But what does happen is first I get a beeping in my headphones, which is fine..... but then the Music automatically switches and it starts blaring through the phone's speakers, and this goes on until I either answer the call or ignore the call, then the music reverts back to my headphones as it was before the call.
My question, why does the music revert from bluetooth to the phone's speakers when I Get a call and my phone is on silent - Its sooo freaking annoying, this also happens with my bluetooth car kit. Any ideas whats going on?
Can't help you solve the issue but I do know for a fact my galaxy nexus did the exact same thing. I gave up on bluetooth.

I just started using a temporary fix.... I noticed this ONLY happens when the phone is on SILENT or VIBRATE (doesn't happen when its on RING since it just rings normally)....
So what I did was setup a Smart Action clause which when connected to my stereo bluetooth headset, which I pretty much only use when I'm working out, it will keep the phone on RING but turn the volume as low as possible without making it silent and it will also automatically switch to a very quiet barely audible ringtone!
This works for me!
Can anyone tell me why is this happening? I turned off the bluetooth scanning to increase geolocation placement but it still turns itself on occasionally. I don't want that to happen because BT drains my battery.
I've been very pissed of by missing notifications just because I wasn't wearing my earbuds and they weren't in the charging case or turned off.
All I want is to someone help this global crisis get solved. Literally been licked out every forum for solution but haven't found one. We don't know google will fix this in future or not like samsung did with their samsung assistant app which hasan option to divert notification sounds to phone speakers while in ringer mode.
I am really hoping someone will either raise a solution for this or just let google know that this needs to be fixed now.
Please list down any proper solution if you have one
PS: Don't suggest turning the Bluetooth off from phone settings, that's not a full proof solution.
Thanks in advance!
Hi all,
Ive noticed recently that when listening to music on my watch via my BT headphones, if i get a notification, message etc, music stops, and the watch reverts back to 'listening on device', instead of the watch, so i need to reconnect my BT again for the music to resume..
Only way to stop it is to disconnect from wifi/data so i dont get notifications. This seems really stupid, my previous S3 watch did not do this...
Known bug, anyone else having this issue? Or am i missing a setting somewhere?
Cheers
