How can I disable Sprint hands-free-activation after boot??

How can I disable Sprint hands-free-activation after boot??
every time I boot ot hard reset I get this message of trying to activate then fail
how can I stop this from starting
thanks

What exactly is sprint hands free activation? I'm on sprint & I've never heard of this. But check your startup folder & see if that program is in there.

Hi,
Same thing here. I bought an unlocked sprint phone. I'm using it on another carrier. Each time I make a soft reset it boots up, starts Flow 3D, and then launches a screen with the title Sprint hands-free-activation.
Because I am on another carrier it can't connect, so after a minute or so, it displays an error message, with the instruction that if you want to reattempt connection you should go to All settings => System => Update Profile
In my startup folder I got the following items:
\Windows\BTTrayCE.exe
\Windows\HTCStartUp.exe
\Program Files\S2U2\iLock2.exe
\Windows\PKG.exe
poutlook.exe
\windows\voicecmd.exe
Any ideas? Thank you in advance!

Sorry for bumping a really old thread here, but I'm having troubles with this as well. Any ideas?
Thanks.

This came up for the first time for me last week. My phone kept on rebooting and then attempting "hands free activation". Eventually my phone told me that it had attempted too many times and that I needed to do hard reset it. I am using the stock wm 6.5 with sense and had not installed any new apps in months. It started while driving and using google maps. If I hit "cancel" while hands free activation is attempting i am able to regain control of my phone but it was sluggish. I was not able to find a fix and eventually I hard reset my phone and the problem went away.

I had this problem after I provisioned my Telus phone using the Sprint setting by accident after flashing a custom rom.
After a bunch of searching I found that going into the registry and deleting HKLM\Services\LaunchOMC the pop up never came back again.
I don't know if it has any adverse effects if you are actually on the Sprint network but it worked for me anyways.
Other then that the only thing I found that would fix the problem is a hard reset.
Here's the threads that pointed me in the right direction.

Ironically, a hard reset never fixed it for me. I have thought that it might be because I am on Boost Mobile and my configuration and information might be a bit different.

I probably should've told ya'all this last week, but I might have found a fix for the problem: In Caulkin's/OMJ's/OAT's Kitchen, uncheck "carrier - sprint", and select the "Carrier - Generic" instead. I've been running for the last few days now like that and have had zero problems with this, and I think I have finally escaped the elusive "hand free activation problem. And no, this is not an April first joke either.

Same problems here. Sprint cdma touch pro 2 with stock ROM.
I would find the phone keeps shutting itself off.
Finally able to do backup of contacts and hard reset. Restore contacts and lost all my text messages. Also lost all addresses with-in the contacts.
Hopefully this last.

GOOD LUCK Reply

If a hard reset doesn't help, you'll need to try to either make that adjustment in the kitchen that I was talking about earlier, or try that registry tweak. I've flashed more ROMs that I had cared to have counted to my Diamond (the equivalent of a hard reset every time), and it never fixed it for me. Hopefully you have better luck though.

[Q] Rooted then unrooted phone, no more 3G

So I decided to root my phone today, so that I can use the ad free app, overclocking, etc...
Well, after I completed the process, I was having troubles connecting properly to my provider. Needless to say, I was freaking out, so I did a full factory reflash of my phone, based on a thread I found here.
After doing all that, I'm able to connect to my provider, but I can't get data anymore. I setup the APNs exactly how they were before, and checked every possible guide on setting up the APNs, and did it, and redid it a million times, and rebooted the phone more times than I can count.
I still can't get data back. The 3G thing will flash like it's coming on, then turn back off. I'm so stressed out right now, you can't even imagine. I really loved this phone as it was, there was no need at all for me to try rooting it, everything worked PERFECTLY. Then my dumb ass ruined everything.
Please, if anyone has ever encountered this, or knows why this might be happening the way it is, please let me know.
Other things I've noticed, I can call from my phone, and receive calls from a buddy that's on the same network as me, but I can't call myself from my home phone. It's late at night, so I can't test receiving calls from other networks, and other people's home phones.
Btw, I did exactly this to unroot it:

Scratch this, I'm mentally retarded. As soon as I disabled wifi, my phone connected to 3G.

[Q] strange turning off when incoming call

So here is the problem - my sgs 4g (currently running valhalla black, earlier same problem with stock 2.3.6) turns off when someone is calling. It's not happening every time i get incoming call, just sometimes. It turns off without any sign of doing it(no vibration, no sound, not even the animation so i don't know that its happening, when the phone is in my pocket), and the caller gets voice mail.
I think the problem started after updating to 2.3.6, but it also can be caused by falling on the floor(happened few times).
What do you think? Anyone had similiar problems?
I live in Poland, so i can't get it fixed in samsung care point because they don't support SGS 4G.
sry for my spelling mistakes, i'm doing my best, but that's not my first language.

I'd say the best you can try is Gremlin Remover to see if it solves your problem.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=22596598&postcount=1

try tmo warranty after returning to stock gb

Gremlin Remover doesn't help. I flashed it only once.
I'm a bit afraid of sending it to USA Tmobile store from here, i think i'll look for some samsung magician in my country unless you have other ideas.
thanks for help and waiting for more solutions
#edit: is there any diagnostic software to check my phone hardware? Maybe something to save log of crash if its software failure?

When you say you flashed it once - do you mean Gremlin Remover or Valhalla Black?
And I wonder if it could be a modem issue for you since it started on KJ6. You might try flashing a different modem as a troubleshooting option.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16127939&postcount=1

i had that issue on one of my sgs4g's a while back. wipe your sd card on your computer, odin back to kj6 stock. once you odin back to stock, make sure you perform a factory reset with the sd card removed. reboot and let it sit for a few min. do not sign into google or anything. have someone call you and see if the problem persists. let the phone function that way for an hour or so. then sign into google, but do not dl any apps. put back in your empty sd card and then reboot the phone. after a day, if you do not have the issue, you should be good to go. if you have the issue after a day, post back and pm me if i do not respond (i probably won't; i'm swamped at work and I am rarely on)

Ive had the same thing happen on valhalla black and I found that on my phone it was actually a skin that I had been using with adw ex. I changed my skin and cleared all my cache and dalvik cache and did not have a single problem after that. There are so many different things it could be. just experiment with it.

@lumin30: I meant stock 2.3.6 ->valhalla black (remover was the second)
That's something. I'll try everything you guys posted above and let you know the results in a few days.
Thanks for everything, appreciate your help.
#edit: LogsProvider service keeps crashing after blackout on valhalla black and i have to reinstall it. After flashing, the phone works for about 24h and then turns off. When I turn it on, logsprovider stops unexpectedly every 15 sec and i have to flash it again.
Now I am not sure if it's connected to incoming calls

After weeks of flashing and testing there is only one thing I am sure - nothing helped.. I tried many ROMs, different kernels and modems.
Now I can't see any relation to the software. Only thing on my mind is the battery, usually when my sgs turned off, the battery lvl was below 70%, so I ordered new one. I'll let you know if this changed anything.

Softbricked, basic usage no rooting.

Gday everyone.
I just got this phone and since it was first powered on I've had issues. I will likely be going back to the carrier tomorrow and asking for a replacement, but wanted to put my experience down here. Ive looked at a lot of other threads, but all of them involve unlocking of bootloader, flashing etc - I havent done ANY of this (yet). Its fresh out of the box.
Location: Australia
Carrier: Optus
Model: MHA-L09 (cant access extended model number)
So first up, had issues connecting to the carriers in-store wifi, which uses a captive portal.
When I finally got it going I was presented with a Chinese site - id accept this usually considering it is Huawei.
This phone is a replacement for my dead Note4 and as such I wanted to restore apps, as I had no internet, I skipped the process.
Got back to my office and connected to my wifi fine, so decided to factory reset to get a fresh start.
Noticed that after reset the initial process was in a different order. Restored from Google and all apps downloaded, happy days for a couple of hours, just waiting for my service to port over.
2 hours later, I decide to restart the phone, it gets hung up on the Optus logo which is displayed before the reboot starts.
Hard reboot.
System loads, I figure I may as well see about a firmware update. Get 'Package installer isn't responding' errors. Try again, works, no updates available.
Go to google photos, get 'Package installer isn't responding' error.
At this point I think, f**k - what is going on here.
So I reboot into recovery to wipe the cache. This processes fine, but then the option to reboot the phone doesn't work.
Hard reboot.
Boots into recovery without me touching it.
Hard reboot. - happens again.
So then I think, fine ok, I've upset the balance, lets do a factory reset.
Factory reset hangs on 99% for over 30 minutes.
Against better judgement - hard reboot.
Now I have the EMUI logo with a nice round 0% under it... and that's where its staying.
Thoughts?
I have to fly interstate on the weekend and cant really afford unreliable comms. Should I ditch the Huawei?
Thanks all.

So - it seems that nowhere did i find a mention of the fact that if i plug it into my PC and goto the recovery mode, it loads eRecovery. Whilst this didnt actually work (I believe it only works for CN firmware) It did give me a shutdown option. I shut it down and started it again and im back into a fresh install.
Lets see how I go now...

Never restore backups from other phone.

Wow, helpful.
I didn't restore the backup from another phone, just apps, ie google downloaded the apps I selected.
The device is still performing poorly, even a standard reboot does not succeed, instead it hangs on the carrier logo before actually rebooting.
Ill take it back to the store tomorrow and ask for another one, im hoping Ive just gotten a dud.

HELP needed. Galaxy 8+ MobileIron lock out.

Sorry if this is in the wrong location but it's been a long time since I've been here and everything looks different with the forum, lol. I couldn't find anything after searching the forum so making this post.
Here's my issue. I have a very old Galaxy S8+ issued by my employer. I left the company back in Jan 2020. Since then my son has been using the phone at the house to play games on and watch YouTube, etc. Whenever it would get running too slow I would just do a factory reset to clean everything out and my son was good to go again. UNTIL YESTERDAY. I did a factory reset like usual but when it restarted and I began the initial set up like you do with a new phone I got a message after connecting to my WiFi that "This device is managed by your organization". It then had a pop up for username/password for MobileIron. Never got that before so only thing I can think is that my old company started using this MDM software sometime between the last time I did a reset and yesterday. I don't have any sign in creds as I don't work for them anymore. Rebooted into "safe mode" to uninstall the app but cannot because the option is grayed out.
Is there any way to root this phone and get rid of the MDM software or install a ROM or something so that the phone is usable again? Obviously, I can't boot the phone up either than in "safe mode" Or is the thing a paperweight now. Just wanted to check before I chuck it in the trash. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I just saw my signature. LMAO! I think it's a little outdated.
