[Verizon Droid Charge] Yankees368:
I used to have this issue with several HTC phones. What happens is that if you keep the phone on the dash in direct sunlight, the battery reaches critical temperatures and to prevent the risk of failure, it stops the battery from charging. This happened all the time on my HTC phones from the Mogul 6800 to the Touch Pro. Not sure why the T-Bolt didn't have that issue, maybe it was set to a higher threshold before stopping the charging.

You may want to keep it out of direct sunlight or take the battery cover off to let more air flow in when charging on the dash.

Hope that helps.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
I had the same problem. The warning message seems to be a safety feature built into the Charge that waits to charge the battery until it is cooled off.

I found that unpluging and turning off navigation for a while helped cool things off.

I also tried having the phone fully charged before using it for navigation and then plugging it in and this seemed to help. I am no expert, but it seems that when the phone is not trying to charge a battery rapidly it deals with the GPS heat better.

I hope this helps; stick with it and keep bugging Verizon!
[Verizon Droid Charge] Cruiserdude:
So they sent you a Charge, but you kept the tbolt charger? And they have sent you multiple Charges and batteries, but never the correct charger? If this is right, you need to tell them to give you a Charge charger (heh). This phone seems to be pretty particular about what charges it, I can't even use a usb extension cable, so the wrong charger may be the culprit.
[Verizon Droid Charge] rmanaka:
I've been getting this as well using CoPilot Live v8 (just upgraded to v9). I found if I turned down the screen brightness a bit, say to 80%, I could still see the screen but avoid most of the battery charging issues.

I also just purchased a Tetrax XWAY mount that will attach to an air conditioning vent. We'll see if blowing cool air onto the back will let me drive around with the brightness turned full up.

My concern with brightness all the way up is that I am not sure if the charge rate from the lighter plug will keep up with the discharge rate on the DC when everything is running full tilt...I just ordered a Tek-Tok Wireless lighter plug USB charger, Input: 12-24V DC; Output: 5.0V DC 2.1Amp! Let the frying begin!!!

p.s. I tried the Samsung/Verizon navigation mount on a 5-day trip...not too bad of a design, BUT, would not work with my extended battery and back PLUS when the DC goes into car dock mode (automatically when inserted into the navigation dock) it comes up with a screen that has a shortcut to VZ Navigator that CANNOT be edited or changed to another navigation program. You have to disable the dock in order to use another navigation program! What's with THAT, Verizon and Samsung!!! Needless to say, returned the mount yesterday...
[Verizon Droid Charge] blarrick:
Try turning your brightness down, make sure it's going into sleep mode and keep it out of direct sunlight
[Verizon Droid Charge] 2pezboy:
I also had the exact same overheating issue. After getting a replacement device I started looking at the charger I was using. I had been using a micro usb charger that only output 500ma. The droid charger is 1000ma (or 1 amp). Apparently I was using more power than the charger could provide. The charger couldn't keep up and I guess that must have been the issue because since switching to a 1 amp charger, I haven't had overheating issues.
[Verizon Droid Charge] Ritorix:
"Charging Interrupted - battery temperature too high or too low"

Living in Miami, I have seen this message a few times after leaving the Charge in my car.

Run a free sensor program to tell you the battery temp when it does this. Mine gets up to 130 F.

If your phone isnt really at 130F, maybe something is tricking the sensor or it is faulty.
[Verizon Droid Charge] dmw_4814:
I rooted my Charge today, installing a new kernel (imnuts' PeanutButta Jelly Time) and a new ROM (GummyCHARGED 1.8.5), and I drove 3 1/2 hours from my terminal back to my home for the weekend with the Charge plugged into the charger and never once got the "battery temperature too high or too low" message!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that doing this eliminated my charging problems with the Droid - we'll see!

[Verizon Droid Charge] Bear55:
Google maps updated and one of the new features is "Improved battery power management for Navigation (Beta)." Hopefully this helps to solve our problem!
[Verizon Droid Charge] blempka:
One thing I did to help prevent this issue when it gets to hot is to set the air vents in your car to the defroster setting, so it will blow air at the windshield, and in turn your phone on the dash. Also, taking off the back can do wonders to prevent over heating.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jinkim89:
Hi everyone,

It seems like I received a really weird version of the Nexus S.

I ordered a Nexus S along with a new plan from Mobilicity a few days ago. When I went today to pick up the phone, the salesman opened the box and turned it on to set something up and show me how to use it.

What I immediately noticed was that the loading screen has the unlocked padlock. It also skipped the Google account sync/log-in screen when you start the phone for the first time. Instead, it went straight to the homescreen which had a red x through the Android logo in the wallpaper, with the message "* WARNING!!! S/W is not completely Installed. DOWNLOAD Full S/W Before Release"

The salesman grabbed another Nexus S but it suffered the same problem. He proceeded to "fix" the phone, which was just changing the wallpaper. (I have since restored to factory default so I can get the "warning" wallpaper again.)

I tried to sync with Google through Settings -> Account & Sync, but I get no option to choose Google, Facebook, or anything and it takes me straight to the Exchange sync screen. I can, however, use the generic email app with my gmail perfectly fine.

There are also many apps missing, most notably the Android Market. There are some weird test apps, though. LbsTestMod seems to be some sort of GPS/location testing app, and Touch noise test seems to test the touchscreen (no idea how to work them)

In the About phone screen, this is what I see

Model number: Full Android on Crespo

Android version: 2.4

Baseband version: I9020XXKD1

Kernel version: 2.6.35.7 (there's more in this section in the picture but I can't type it out because I can't post links)

Build number: full_crespo-eng 2.4 GINGERBREAD 563 test-keys

My question is, what should I do with it? This is my first android, so I have no idea what I've got here. I'd like to keep it if possible but I also need a phone that actually syncs with my Google account. Should I root it? or return it again and hope that I don't get another phone with the same problem?

I can take more pictures if anyone needs it.

[HTC EVO 3D] fatboypup:
I was on my nightly bicycle ride using Cardio Trainer and my Skull Candy Smokin Buds, and everytime id move the phone in my bicycle jersey near the headphone jack it would cause the music to skip/stop/ff sometimes try to voice search and sometimes try to redial out ... :mad: I can replicate the problem here at home by jiggling the headphone jack around abit .......... anyone else :confused:
[HTC EVO 3D] Vivix729:
Yes. I posted the exact same thing in Q&A forum. Got no response but I figured it out.

Sometimes when you plug in your headphones they are detected as a headset. It doesn't occur that often, just make sure the notification icon doesn't have the microphone part. Otherwise any shaking causes songs to skip, phone to freak out and voice dialer starts.

Apparently there's also an app that makes sure they always do connect in headset mode. I think I'll go replace my phone anyway.
[HTC EVO 3D] HuDuVuDu:
I had the same thing happen yesterday. I was testing some speakers at a job site and the phone was going CRAZY. I pulled the phone out of the otterbox case and re-plugged the headphone in and it was fine. I think my problem was the case + cable was not making the correct contact. Today I had the headphones from a PSP plugged in (with case) and it was fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] davidwh5:
Looks like its the same thing that was heading to my evo4g. The headphone input is design for 3 ring conductor (for remote control) but your headphone jack has 2 ring conductor thus making your phone act weird. I brought an adopter (you can go search amazon) and it fixed the problem.
[HTC EVO 3D] mrjkwik:
go to marketplace and download "headset blocker". it wont show up in your apps list. go to 1 of your homescreens, and add its widget. its a toggle that you turn on and off. when its on, none of the headphone control features will work, and it it should just play your music without skipping tracks and what not.
[HTC EVO 3D] evank001:
I have the same issue did you ever figure it out?
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Like previously mentioned this is because it is designed for a 3 ring conductor. 1 is left, 2 is right, 3 is microphone/control. The controls are back track, forward track, pause/play/answer/hangup. If you have a pair of headphones with 2 conductor (which is fine and it is also designed for) you are good. If, however, you aren't making full contact (because of cases being in the way or you have a 'non standard' headphones, read: cheap ****) wacky things can happy from intermittent contact of the various points.

I've never experienced this on either phone, but, it is a thing and it makes perfect sense.

There is another possibility...that the jack is fncked up. Poorly soldered, defective jack, abused (all it takes it one good jerk on the cable to ruin everything).

It's not as random and wacky of a situation as it sounds like.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikeyxda:
I have two different 2 ring (stereo) headphone cables from two different manufacturers and the cable has nothing to do with the issue in my case. The issue is not with headphone/earbuds and not with the cable not plugging in all the way. The issue for me is that when you have the headphone cable plugged into the jack and the other end is feeding any type of amp: stereo equipment, Aux input in a car, whatever, the phone absolutely loses its mind. I've tested it on three different phones now and it does it every time. The phone is unusable until you download, install, and activate Headset Blocker from the market. Then everything works perfectly. It appears to be a defect in either the hardware or the software because it is picking up electrical noise as headset control signals.

BTW, I've measured the cables and tested to be sure they plug in all the way. They are standard 2 ring (which means three conductor) cables that should not be triggering any headset functionality. Something on these phones is falsely triggering the headset connection: maybe some very small electrical signal or voltage coming from aux inputs because as I said, earbuds/headphones with the exact same connector don't have the problem.

[HTC EVO 3D] JoshuaAlba:
I had the same problem and just swapped it for a new phone. If you're still under 30 days just take it back.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
It sounds likely that it could be a grounding issue, probably on the amp side...though it could be on the phone side, especially if this happens to some phones and not others. If this is pro gear there is probably a ground lift switch on the back...give that a shot, if it doesn't help then it is definitely the phone...which I am leaning towards since it seems to happen on some and not others.

Headset Blocker from Market. I had a video on youtube about this and my thread is here.
[HTC EVO 3D] s4pat:
i am having the same problem. thanks for the heads up for the headset blocker app. beats using up warranty or paying deductible for now.
[HTC EVO 3D] SquareKite:
I know this thread is 2 years old, but I figured bumping is better than starting a new thread. Anways, this issue has been driving me crazy to no end. Headset blocker stops the false signals. However, if it's in your pocket and the base of the jack is bent, (at least on Skullcandy products + HTC Inspire), music stops playing from the left ear.

Anyways, I figured out a solution to this. Cut a 3.4mm hole in a credit card, and then insert your headphone jack. Trim the card around where you insert the headphone jack. To get the right size hole, I use a knife to penetrate the card, and then use a screwdriver to widen the hole until it's about right. It should stop all interference and false signals, audio cutting when your phone is in your pocket and the headphone base is bent.

This also works on heaphones that have microphones; however, you have to remove the plastic piece if you want to use the mic.

Abaout those adapters on Amazon that someone mentioned; what do I search to find them?
[HTC EVO 3D] DjDom:
Nope, it's certainly on the phone side.

I've had the same issues plugging it into my car and into professional audio equipment.

Headset blocker is great. I just keep it on all the time.

It was pretty funny sitting in the car and realizing that it's dialing everyone on your contact list though. Couldn't make it stop even after unplugging it. It went crazy.

Um help:confused:, just downloaded 'over the air' the new android update for htc. Putting stuff back on my phone (sense mods and other apk's) from sd card, they will load into the file manager (multiple types) but only the cancel button is active, not the install button.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
Ok, so i got overly anxious when flashing black ice and tried to go straight to Black Ice from Frost instead of going back to KD1. So i soft bricked. and now i've got the red CWM and i think that's a problem for when i try to flash Black Ice after i ODIN back to KD1 tomorrow. will the red CWM cause any problems? and if so how do i get back to the regular yellow CWM?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
You got the red CWM from Bali 3.0+. Honk just posted Bali 3.2, so it's better if you flash that once you reflash your ROM.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
so flashing Bali 3.2 will fix it?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
no. but since you have the red cwm, you can fix it. im not sure if you are doing the ext4 converter, but if you are:

wipe device and cache

check your mounts

flash ext4 converter

flash rom

flash bali 3.2 and reboot from cwm

i think you should be good to go after that.

let me know how it goes. and as usual, check the bible.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
i'm not doing the ext4 converter (yet) and what should i reboot, the device od CWM? and i want to use voodoo so i need red CWM don't i? i just don't want any issues when trying to flash black ice. and what do the mounts need to be? is it this:

unmount

mount

mount

unmount
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
yes, those are the right mounts. im pretty sure you just wipe data and cache, check mounts, and flash the rom followed by the 3.2 kernel. i dont think you should have any trouble. the red cwm is built into the bali kernels now.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
so am i ok to flash Black Ice through the red CWM
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
you should be good. the red cwm is a GOOD thing. lol. the bali kernel keeps getting better and better.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
i know it's a good thing, i just wanted to make sure it was a good thing as far as flashing stuff. can i flash bali 3.2 (i'm flashing the UV version) in the same CWM session as the ROM or should i flash the ROM then reboot, wait 10 minutes, reboot to recovery and then flash? and doesn't Bali convert to ext4 now anyway?
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
ive messed up before and i just reflashed the rom immediately followed by the kernel. i never had a problem.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
alright, thanks man. i'm just kinda paranoid of bricking
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
you can always restore with odin, but i dont think you should have any problems.

since you already have the bali kernel, check out this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1142922

post 4 - start from wiping the data.

i tried to explain it in detail.

i hope it works out. as always, check the bible for reference.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Yeah, you don't wanna do the ext4 converter anymore. You wanna do this >

Flash the new rom, followed by bali 3.2, then reboot after making sure your mounts are:

unmount
mount
mount
unmount

Then you let it sit for 10+ minutes after it boots, then you reboot and go to voodoo > enable lagfix (and you can enable lagfix on /system too)
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
thanks to the both of you. you were both loads of help. i'm downloading the KD1 ODIN file right now and i will let you guys know how it goes after i flash everything
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
How will I know if it properly converted to ext4ext4
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jager555:
you can dl voodoo control and scroll down in the app. it will tell you what is converted
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
It only says data got converted so is there anyway to convert the others
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] FBis251:
Go into the Voodoo app > Lagfix Preferences

Check Ext4 conversion and Ext4 /system, then restart your phone afterward.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] Juls317:
Still only have data. Are my settings right?

Well looking at the SE blog in the coments about the gingerbread update someone post this link for a global petition to SE about their actual strategy on the market

[XPERIA X10 General] kantk20111:
umm...what?

The future is smartphone, and I will argue that the X10, arc, Vivaz, all SE smartphones, DO have the Sony Ericsson touch. You can see it from the style, the looks, everything.

I don't see the point of this.
[XPERIA X10 General] unknown13x:
Apparently the petitioner does not know anything about how much it costs to actually produce those "simple phone" interfaces. If you look at the later phones with that generic OS, they are powered by better processors, but the speed of those are only on par with the older phones. The reason is behind the poor OS structure to begin with. The foundation was not solid enough to be built upon, hence, the little improvements from model to model. SE did try to fix the foundation. W395's software was written by a total new team from ground up. If you have played with it, the speed is much faster than any other similar OS devices from SE. However, the timeline from that point on was touched upon Android, and people were looking for phones with the ability to expand its capabilities(such as applications and such). To revamp the whole OS, or to adopt a new OS and just spend on development, the answer should now be clear. Plus, SE has been doing a heck lot to simplify users who are not customed to smartphones, which is why Yendo and such have similar UI's so users can easily switch or move up models without having to relearn everything. Software and applications also came out where users have everything they need. IMO, that petition will land no where but in the scrapyard. It's understandable, but on the development front, it is no where to become a new reality.

Install of the carbon fiber is a little more difficult to line up as you cannot slide it around because it doesn't use solution, its just a sticker with special adhesive. I got it as strait as I could. Enjoy.
