i'll have to get another dongle and try that. what i did try was cutting open a micro USB cable and disconnecting the green & white cables(data), putting it back together and trying it out but then it still said "charging USB" and didn't seem to make a difference. :(
[HTC Rezound] jim_0068:
There are a lot of reviews from the above that say it still charges via USB only and not A/C. Seems hit or miss.
[HTC Rezound] Marine6680:
It may depend on how much power the charger supplies. Some may not give a full 1A and some dual charger may only give .5A per port.

What do you mean by keeps up with nav and listening to books?

I'm hoping I can navigate my phone's mp3s using my car stereo. I tried plugging it into the car's usb port that works for my ipod but it didn't read anything when I went to the usb tab on my car's screen.

I've ordered that Belkin charger based on your suggestion in the audio thread but haven't received it yet. Hoping that's what you're talking about and that I'll be able to see my mp3 library on my car's screen. Of course I suppose it depends on the audio system or car. I have a Gen 3 Prius with stock stereo that came with the navigation.
[HTC Rezound] NilsP:
The charger is just for charging. Once you plug your usb cable into it you will not be connected to the stereo.

I use the charger for charging, the BT for the phone to car stereo, and the aux jack for listening to Audible books in the car. The nav I was refering to is the Google Maps for GPS navigation which outputs sound over my aux connection.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Okay, thanks. Doesn't look like I'll be seeing my phone's mp3 library on my car's navi screen. :(

I forgot to update this thread. I got the HTC CC C300 dual port charger and it does provide the juice for AC charging. Cruising down the road, it was pushing a little under 850mAh into my near-dead battery. The model number is 99H10128-00.

If you can live with only one port, the single port HTC charger does AC charging as well. The cheapest that I've seen it is here, as a "T-Mobile myTouch" branded unit. http://www.amazon.com/HTC-T-Mobile-...UTF8&coliid=I3F2IGEKMH21XF&colid=CYR5AB72ZMIK
[HTC Rezound] Hohlraum:
FYI, I bought this on your recommendation and it DOES NOT charge in AC mode with the Galaxy Nexus LTE.

UPDATE. I think I found the problem. There must be a variation in actual vehicle DC outlets. The Belkin and myTouch chargers mentioned in this thread both charge in AC mode in my wife's VW. They do not in my Ford F150. So basically its a crap shoot :) Good luck.
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
???

I am surprised no one has simply pointed out that a power inverter will do the job. They are perpetually at $15-$20 on NewEgg. It will give you an A/C plug, which you can then use to charge your phone at 1A.
[HTC Rezound] couchmonkey:
yeah but its ugly and bulky
[HTC Rezound] jdmba:
Welp

It don't gotta sit on your lap :)

In reality, it is the only solution to the OP's question, as it is unlikely that any of the car chargers will put out 1A. Again, was just surprised no one offered the only solution, aesthetics aside.
[HTC Rezound] feralicious:
Not sure if your post is meant to inform or complain, but his rec was posted in the Rezound accessories forum and that's the phone he confirmed it working on.

I just checked it on my Rezound in my Prius and it DOES charge in AC mode, so thanks Nils!
[HTC Rezound] Apsalus:
The AC charger included with the RZD and both of the car chargers that I posted push ~980mAh to my phone. Is a full 1A even possible?
[HTC Rezound] brando56894:
An easier fix is to flash incredikernel and use the usb fast charge option. :-)
[HTC Rezound] maniac2k:
Opened up, put a little drop of solder on the 2 center connections closed back up. Now it's charging as AC. Thanks! Hardest part is finding all the pieces under pressure that pop out when opening. Lol.

Good find. Reviews say it puts out 1 amp!
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
so a 1 amp charger that registers AC mode eh?.. thats cool.

still sad though that i have 2 2.1 amp dongles(a belkin and a kensington) that both charge my asus transformer & ipad 2 fast... but when i connect the rezound to either it registers as USB mode and charges slow as hell(loses charge if i actually use the rezound while charging).

anyone know if there's a 2.1 that will do AC mode?

i ended getting this rocketfish rapid charger from best buy but with the coil like cable & the standard micro connection it's a tad loose and occassionally stops charging depending on the phone's placement.
[HTC Rezound] mike.s:
You say that as if the problem is with the Rezound. It's not. Those chargers simply don't follow the USB spec.
[HTC Rezound] maximus20895:
Yea, I got one and it didn't work. Charged around 200 mah. Impossible to take apart so I just got the 1 amp one. It 6 times cheaper so I'm happy.

Welcome to the thread.

The CC C300 does 1A from both ports. It comes with one cable.
[HTC Rezound] ecetim:
Have any of you tried using Battery Monitor Widget to actually measure your charge rates? I never have issues getting 1A charge with any charger, including the $4 Motorola car charger. Just don't use cheap Chinese junk and you shouldn't have any issues.
[HTC Rezound] mike.s:
Using what monitoring method? With the default, Auto, charging measurements seem to be close, but discharge measurements are way off. That makes me not trust either to be particularly accurate.
[HTC Rezound] gcbxda:
this thread left me with more questions :)

1) does it show AC/USB based on the >0.5A being provided? or based on the shorted data pins in the USB cable?

2) So, how do you guys measure charging current? i could only find remaning battery voltage on my CM7.1

extra. 3) if you were to attach a multimeter to measure real Amps being draw, how would you do it?
[HTC Rezound] maximus20895:
I downloaded battery monitor widget or something, it tells the draw and input.

No idea, but there is an app for that ^
[HTC Rezound] gcbxda:
what i'm trying to figure out now is if the phone is relying solely on the shorted USB pin 3-4 instead of acually checking amperage.

I checked those widgets, and didn't put much trust on them.

Anyone knows where in the proc filesystem i can find the input voltage? my googlefu failed.

i wasted some type probing /sys and /proc but the best i could find was in dmesg

"batt: 96%, 4162 mV, 206 mA (210 avg), 28.8 C, 1300 mAh"

which does not tell me anything about the charger

---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 AM ----------

i'm testing one board and between pin 2-3 there's 24K ohm.

does that sound right?
[HTC Rezound] gcbxda:
yeah, i have to learn a little about eletronics.

just tested several AC chargers, they all have <1 ohm. So i just went ahead and soldered my car charger's pins.

seems that to advertise ipad/iwhatever compatible the manufacturers, besides paying royalties, are forbidden to short the pins on the charger itself.
[HTC Rezound] mike.s:
Nope. Shorting D+ and D- (actually, it's a 200 Ohm resistance in the current spec) is part of the USB charging specification. Makers of cheap chargers don't do it because they're clueless.
[HTC Rezound] plcline:
Get a charge only cable, i.e. Naztech Micro USB Charging Cable. The phone will then see the charging source as an outlet and not a usb port.

Also, recommend the Miccus ChargeBlock USB Car Adapter CBCAWC-2A. Make sure you order the CBCAWC-2A as it's 2 amp model. With this charger and the above cable, or similiar cable, you can run everything simultaniously and it will fully charge up the battery.

[HTC Rezound] 1454:
Yeah, I have one of the ipad 2.1 amp chargers for the car, and the bionic would charge at about 1.5 amps on it, but all of my HTC devices charge at only 500mah. I wish I had a 2.1 amp charger that would work for the zound. As its nice to be about to get in the car for 20 mins and have 30% or so battery after that.

There is an easy way to check if you are on "fast charge". On your phone if navigate to:

I have a og evo I want to know why when I overclock to 1.2ghz it freezes my phone why does it do that ?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tropicalbrit:
Each Evo is different. Some of them can't handle that high overclock, or can't be undervolted very low. Each one is different, each has its limits.

I don't understand the big deal with overclocking. It burns your battery faster. I personally underclock, with little to no lag and is good enough for my casual gaming needs
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blizzard1017:
Mine doesn't like a clock much at all. I can get about 1.1 before it starts locking up but even then it hangs a lot. I honestly don't see a difference from 1.0 to 1.2. Get a decent rom, good kernel and try out the v6 script an I almost guarantee you will like that better.

I use no frils cpu but have also tried setcpu and viperMOD I know that's the best way to overclock but is very confusing. Have any step by step instructions to of to 1.2 I know having higher voltages helps as well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] plainjane:
Overclocking is overrated. If you need to overclock for every day usage, then something is wrong - at least in my opinion. Resource intensive gaming is different, but you shouldn't need to overclock for browsing, texting, casual games, etc.

Try out the V6 Supercharger script. I'm not currently using it, but have in the past and it seemed to make my phone more snappy. A lot of people swear by it and it's a great script, definitely worth a shot. There are other things you can do to speed up your phone without overclocking. I'd try other options first since overclocking will chew through your battery. Increase the dalvik vm heap size, there are plenty of free apps on the market to help with this task. Uninstall apps you don't use, I'll bet that you never use some of the apps on your phone. Back them up with Titanium Backup and you can restore them if you ever need them again.

In case you didn't already know, the Evo can't overclock past 1.2, I'm not 100% sure why - it has something to do with the processor.

I never oc over 1075 and only when plugged in if i play a game I need to oc.for I just activate my charging profile and plug up and play 1.2 ghz is a good chance of doing serious.damage as these older scorpion processors get very very hot at that clock speed so they lock up to try and protect themselves from heat damage or they shut down the phone 1075 is as high as you should need to go for any games the evo can handle on the subpar gpu

I'm pretty sure viperMOD is more for undervolting than overclocking, which are not suppose to be combined together. I am running vipermod with max voltages - 50. Other nite was playing snes9x and was getting some lag with a game so I bumped max CPU up to 1.2. Phone went into a bootloop and had to superwipe and reflash everything. Don't know if its b/c vipermod + 1.2 CPU or just bumping up CPU. Didn't try it again.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary13579:
You can overclock and undervolt together just fine. You just need to ensure that every frequency has a high enough voltage to run the processor at that step. My Evo is overclocked and undervolted just fine, although IIRC I can only push it up to 1.1 GHz :(. My tablet is 1ghz to 1.6ghz and is undervolted as well, though.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cityneversleepz:
merge rls 2.0, iron monkey, Droid overclock because of the profiles options. I set up four profiles including one for temp. sometimes i'm underclocking and sometimes overclocking but only up to 1.19 to prevent freeze and boot loops. Only downside is right at open Droid overclock needs su permission but that is my choice since profile changes at open.

Very snappy afterwards.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tokuzumi:
When I had the 4G, I was never able to go above 1118, or somewhere around that. It would have freezing issues.

On my evo shift, I was able to do 1.7 gHz (compared to stock 800 mhz) ok. 1.6 pretty reliabily, and I could run 1.5 all day long. Some guys could do 1.9. It just depends on the phone.

Actually overclocking and undervolting is counter-productive. What you should do, is read carhaulers and ropodopes guide over at vaelepak.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary13579:
What? Overclocking and undervolting are two completely different things, and they aren't mutually exclusive. Unless you can provide a good reason as to why it's counter productive to do both, I don't buy that at all. Just checked my phone, my overclock requires an extra 25 mV for all three steps I've overclocked. 25mV isnt much, and it certainly isn't going to kill my battery that much faster.

Besides, the only time the CPU is going to be entering these high power modes is when it needs to do work, and it's better to do work as fast as possible to go back to sleep. Would you rather wake up, do a mundane task for 5 minutes, then go back to sleep or wake up, do a task at 2x the speed while only consuming 30-50% more energy, then going back to sleep after only 2.5 minutes?

HUGI is real.

First let me say I don't use viper mod or any voltage controlling mod.

On sense 3.0 roms such as mikg I over clock to 1152 and set the minimum to 384 and its smooth as butter. No problem and battery lasts all day.

On aosp however such as decks (I'm on it now) I underclock to 499 and leave the min at 254. Smooth as always and battery lasts forever.

Anything past 1152 is going to cause problems (at least in my experience) also the rom/kernel can effect how much you can overclock.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PhxkinMassacre:
Its counter productive because it is giving less to something that needs more. (Don't take this post as me trying to be a ****. Just voicing how someone explained it to me a while ago)

Think of this as cars.

Lets say you have a nice fancy v8 mustang. Stock, everything is well, balanced.

If you start adding parts and get it pushing out 1000 horsepower (overclock) your most likely gonna need more feul (voltage) or at least stock amount flowing into the engine just to keep it running.

Now lets say you got that same 1000 horsepower gas destroying mustang and you start to lower the amount of gas flowing into the engine (undervolt (done in vipermod)) cylinders (CPU) wont get enough gas, it wont work, and your stuck going no where.

So if that made sense (did to me) then you can see why they are counter productive. Unless your using vipermod to overvolt (which idk if you can since I don't use it) then you can disregard this whole post :P
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Gary13579:
Your car analogy is completely irrelevant. You can look up the exact voltages that the CPU runs on at every frequency, *even when overclocking*. Overclocking an Evo 1ghz to 1.2ghz takes maybe a 5% bump in voltage, and that 5% extra power is only going to be used *when the CPU is running at max speed* (which is only when there is a lot of work to do), and even then, it's *still better to let the CPU run at max speed with a tiny bit more power consumption than to cap the CPU at a slower speed and make it work for even longer*. Intel calls it HUGI, Hurry Up and Get Idle.

I know what I'm talking about, and I wish people would stop trying to argue with me based off of second hand speculation. I do this for a living, after all. There is absolutely nothing wrong with overclocking and undervolting, and it's the best way to get the most battery life *and* performance out of your phone, period.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jamieg71:
Hmm, *interesting*. I believe the best answer to the OP was covered rather well earlier. It's all about your rom/kernel/hardware combination. With all the variables to consider as relevant, your best bet is to experiment and find what works for your device. Don't check set on boot untill you are confident the set-up is stable. Higher is not always better with overclocking. My device runs blazingly well underclocked @768max. Gets insanely great battery @499max. However my quadrants are better @ 1036 than at 1190.

Great thing about android is you can experiment and learn through trial and error.

When i go into the file manager built into the rom it just shows my Sdcard as empty and my sdcardext or whatever as empty also, when its unplugged and in charge only aswell. When i plug it up to my computer and put in usb transfer mode it reads all my files that i have before unlocking, cwm, rooting, and flashing CM7. Any help here?! And the rom doesnt come with the marketplace so i cant try a different file manager. Im really lost here and i dont have any of my data atm.. I have it all backed up on my pc, but no means to make my phone read its memory. Any help would be HUGELY useful right now. While in CWM before flashing i factory reset phone, didnt include sd card(as Qbking77 said in video i watched, huge thanks to him btw love his work) And then wiped cache and dalvic cache. Am i missing something here or whats going on?

EDIT: Also, when plugged into my computer it shows 2 devices, a G: and F:. there used to only be F: as the main "Moto" one, i have no sd card installed into the phone. Now it is G: that is that folder and F: is just empty and cannot be opened by windows and comes when i plug my photon in, at same time as the loaded drive G:. I just used a Nandroid backup to go back to stock rom and reflashed CM7 and still have the same issue..
