[Q] Automatic Aeroplane Mode? - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Ive had my GN for a week and the phone has gone into aeroplane mode twice. It seems to me that once the phone has been in deep sleep for over 2 hours it decides to switch too Boeing flight mode.
I already have a faulty screen so its going back anyway but I would like you guys too know just in case you come across the same problem. Anybody else have the strange occurrence?

I've had it for about a week. I put my phone into airplane mode before and its just kind of hung. Like its thinking about switching the radio off. Can't turn the airplane mode back off. Only thing left is to switch it off and restart it.
I put my phone into airplane mode on and off sometimes out so it can find the network again. Used to do it with my X10.
Though its never gone into airplane mode on its own. It just sometimes hangs when trying to go into that mode.

Barometric pressure sensor?

Has happened to me once, had to reboot to get out of aeroplane mode.

happened to me today as well.. very unexpected..

I just tried it. I pushed the power button and held for a second. The modes switch screen came up and I selected airplane mode on. As soon as the screen went away (1-2 seconds), there was an airplane icon in the notification bar.
Repeated the process to turn it off, and the airplane mode turned off quickly with no airplane icon in the Notif. bar.

@NatTheCat, do you actually see the "airplane" icon on the notification bar when it switches over? (Not sure if its a similar problem as mine - it feels like it has gone into airplane mode, but don't actually get the icon)

My one experience of putting my phone in airplane mode (manually). I hit the toggle from the power button, nothing seemed to happen. No airplane icon. I went back to power button menu and my airplane mode was grayed out... so I rebooted my phone and haven't tried again yet.

I just tried this earlier, it took almost 4 minutes to actually enter airplane mode. It's almost like the processes it was trying to connect online were hanging it up and wouldn't release. During this time, the airplane mode icon was greyed out and I could not switch airplane mode off. Once ap mode actually kicked in and the icon appeared, I was able to turn it back off through the power menu.

Can't get out of airplane mode, HELP!

I'm stuck in Airplane mode but I never even turned it on. If I uncheck it, it sits greyed out at Enabling wireless connections... HELP!
This might sound stupid, but have you tried restarting the phone? Sometimes when I lose signal and can't get it back I try switching to Airplane, but it just sits there... then when I restart, Airplane Mode is on.
I'm thinking something locked up, but I'm not knowledgeable enough to know.
I know that's not your exact problem, but I figured it might be related. :x
Press the on/off button and hold it down. after a few seconds you will see several options, one is airplane mode..it will indicate on or off. To change it just tap on the screen over the message. release the button and press the arrow key at the bottom of the phone to return to the regular screen
Try the steps above, if not pull the battery and see if it's still enabled after it boots.

Stuck on aeroplane mode

Hi fellos and fellas,
I let my son play angry birds this morning (as you do!) and I usually turn on aeroplane mode when I give it to him.
So when he was finished I turned aeroplane mode back off and it is stuck there.
I have tried messing about with the settings and widgets, turning it on and off, restarting etc.
What is curious is the menu that pops up when you hold the power button, aeroplane mode button says is off and the button is greyed out.
Although, in settings, where it has the switches it says turning off ...
I'm not rooted, I'm running stock, WiFi, Bluetooth is working
Any help!
Try another simcard ?

Activating airplane mode but leaving WiFi on

Hey I see this question asked a lot and I still don't get my answer. I want to turn on airplane mode but keep WiFi on. (EVEN ON REBOOT) And I don't want to turn on WiFi after pressing airplane mode or everytime I reboot or power off. I want WiFi to auto turn on on boot in airplane mode.

Phone automatically going into airplane mode

Ever since updating to jellybean my phone has a habit of automatically going into airplane mode if signal levels are weak for an extended period of time. The status bar has a circle with a line through it but when I hold down the power button it says airplane mode. Any ideas?

I'm locked ouf of my Phone

Yesterday before going to bed i decided to change my pattern lock. After changhing i entered airplane mode then i've gone to bed.
THis morning i forgot the new pattern lock and using google's mail and password doesn't work cause i'm in airplane mode.
Any idea to solve without a full wipe?
Pull your battery and restart, should nudge it out of airplane mode.

Nope, it stays in airplane mode
EDIT: Solved
Holding power botton from the lock screen it's possible to disable airplane mode. I'm so used to enable/disable it from quicksetting that I forgot this.
Glad that you solved it, was reluctant to suggest that as I'm not sure what ROM you're running and I don't think stock ROM have that option.
