[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] holgalee:
Happened to me too! It wouldn't charge until I turned off the phone. It worked after I cleaned the phone and usb cable's metal parts--sorry no correct jargon for this--with rubbing alcohol. Make sure there's no lint left from the cleaning.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeromepearce:
Yup, had this. On charge with stock charger in the mains. Battery dropping fast, back (top) getting warm. I turned the screen off, left it for 5 mins. Looked again, it was 2% less!

Reboot fixed it.

There did not seem to be any rogue program using the CPU, but I now have a meter and a better logger to examine this if it occurs again. I assume the system got into a loop somewhere, although the phone was normally responsive.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] andruyd:
Happening to my phone as well right now. I was worried that the battery is dying so I got a spare online. But it doesn't make sense that its charging and know that it is on one state and not the other.

I panicked so I replaced Rocket Rom with Cassie's. It's still doing this.

Have you guys checked if there is a weird smell from your battery? I thought that was something to look at but dont all batteries smell like that?

galaxy note is experiencing the same hardware problems as galaxy s2 phones. I am very pissed off at samsung. I bought a new galaxy note in dominican republic and after one month of delicate use the phone developed charging problems. Drive mode would start automatically or the phone would shut off all by itself and a battery removal reset would turn the phone on again. then finally, the phone would stay in charging mode even after the usb charge cable is removed. the phone would discharge quickly and then would not turn on. I finally gave the phone to repair dept at claro phone company. they would not fix it and are just showing me a middle finger. Now I guess, I would have to learn to change the charging port myself. After seeing galaxy s2 videos, I see many ribbon contacts would get corroded and need to be cleaned frequently. Many phones were just less than 2 months old and had so much corrosion on the contacts. this is bad design and I think the high current draw for a dual core phone of that huge screen size is causing all kinds of electrical corrosion on the contacts inside the phone. this sucks majorly as I loved the phone when I had it working fine. Now I think I have bought a problem with my saved cash. I will try to repair my own phone soon as I get it back from the repair dept.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] boxit:
My Galaxy Note is doing a similar thing. Not all the same symptoms, but a few similarities.

The other night, when the charger was plugged in the phone kept changing it's mind whether it was plugged in or not - probably every few seconds I was getting the chime it makes when you plug the phone in. I eventually managed to charge the phone by turning it off, removing the battery, replacing it, plugging the charger in, waiting for it to start charging, then turning it on.

Today my phone was trying to tell me it was charging when it wasn't even plugged in to anything!

As with the above post, my phone has been getting hot occasionally and the drive mode has started by itself a few times.

I've used three chargers and four cables.

I'll be taking it along to where I bought it from later on today.

Battery not charging

G Note Battery is not charging .. same problem as of 1st post.

Changed usb cables, chargers, thru PC, laptop, direct wall, cleaning etc

Every thing fails. one month old set ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbrazil:
OMG, glad to know I'm not the only one. Bought a Galaxy Note from a brazilian network provider (VIVO) and after 1 week of usage I'm experiencing the same problems as you guys.

My phone will only charge when it is powered off and USB connection does not work anymore (even in download mode). Before the problem onset, I noticed some MTP connection and SD Card rescanning without connecting to the PC.

Did a factory reset and got no results. Downloaded Odin Mobile and flashed stock rom and the problem persists.

Has anyone found a fix or the cause for this?

Thanks!

Missing my old Galaxy S... :(
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbrazil:
Strange! After a full night charge, now I can unplug and plug the battery and continue charging from where I stop without turning it off.

I can now get beeps when connecting to PC. It show MTP-Inicialization in the Note screen but I have no access to to Note partitions in Windoes Explorer.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xbrazil:
Update: One more strange thing just happened now.

Went to college and left it charging. When I came back at night, tried to connect the Note to the PC and everything is working ok now.

What?!?!:confused: Now I'm confused. How can I send it to warranty now? I think I'll have to wait a couple more days.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdayhtc:
issue as well

That is my 3rd galaxy note, first one screen cracked, second dont ask me why it was not modified at all but it was so sluggish and froxze all the time, my 3rd one it is rooted device and i have similar issue...I am thinking is it because i was charging it from my wife's htc one phone? I thought they would have the same pins...anyway it is doomed, i tried so many chargers and problem not solved
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gdayhtc:
ok i can comfirm to everyone that i have fixed the problem by buying contact cleaner spray and sprayed inside the usb and beautiful all back to normal!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thedaniel:
Nooo..

Have a charging problem as well :/ It detects the charging cable and shows the battery icon with the circle about to charge. But it just turns off before it starts charging, turns on shows the icon again, turns off, turns on, shows the battery icon and so on. I have tried with two different chargers. For me i looks like the voltage is too low? Maybe the battery needs a jumpstart? I'll just leave it in the charger and see what happens. :( Suggestions welcome

Edit: It's just two weeks old, damn it. Last night I used it untill the battery was empty. That is why I think the voltage is so low it doesnt accept charge.

Edit2: Fixed! Puh! I was right. Battery needed a higher mah to start the charging. Leaving the post as it is for future reference.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rybaryba33:
same problem here, however it charges from my laptop... how strange?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brooklynite:
I have the same problem with my 3 month old note (At&t i717). No pressure pull or anything was done to the phones USB port in fact it happened in the middle of the night while charging, it just stopped charging on its own. It's stock rom never rooted 2.3.6. Picked up the phone this morning was about 50% i didnt pay too much attention, got in the car and plugged in and noticed it is not charging. I thought its my trusty Chinese charger but it was not, came back home tried home charger the laptop plus USB cable and non worked. I am using original home charger and samsung USB cable. Cleaning the port did nothing. Rebooting few times and pulling the battery out did not help either.

And then the strangest thing happened. While it was plugged in (without me even touching it) after 20 minutes of being plugged in suddenly it made its DING sound and started charging. It has been charging everywhere since then, that was a few hours ago. I am worried it may do this again. It is definitely a software issue to me. I didn't touch the phone and started recharging all on its own!

I bought this note off Craigslist and its only about 3 months old and still under warranty but I don't have the receipt so Samsung says f/u. Very pissed at Samsungs poor customer service, really rude people in the Philippines at customer service, when I told them I bought the phone on Craigslist used, they acted like I have stolen their family jewels and did not want to talk to me. They came up with lame BS excuses like warranty doesn't transfer to second owner (it does, it's mandatory in the USA magnuson moss act ). HTC in contrast has always services my used phones without receipt using the IMEI they check and know it's still under warranty. They place a temporary charge on the card but they have never charged me anything and have promptly repaired my phones multiple times over the past couple of years.

Galaxy Note not charging

About 3 weeks after upgrading to JellyBean, the phone would not accept a charge. Solution: Take out the battery, wait 5 sec, replace. Solved the problem for now.

ACCEPTED BY qasimzia512 & platinumandroid (Huge Thanks!)

DONATE TO: qasimzia512 / platinumdroid (trying to locate link)

Would anyone be interested in creating an orange ICS theme?

Basically what I was hoping for was anywhere you see the blue/teal (3F9BBF) in ICS, I would like it changed to orange (ff8c00). I really like the ICS look and feel so I dont want any fancy graphics or anything, just the color change. I dont know how simple or complicated that may be, but I am not opposed to paying a reward for anyone's efforts.

As far as which ROM to theme... I have used and like ARHD. I am currently using Gummynex. But I am completely open to using whichever ROM. (as long as NFC is supported!)

If anyone else would be interested in this as well please post your support.

Thank you to anyone in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelino0919:
If you are open to launchers you could do something like this
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
That is not bad, but I prefer not to use a launcher. Also I really dont want a themed icon pack, or themed widgets or anything. I like more of the subtle color change. IMO when everything is themed after a few days it becomes a little too much, and I end up reverting back.

Also I am really OCD, so when some icons are themed and other are not it drives me crazy. I know its pretty much impossible to theme every icon out there so I prefer to leave them unchanged.

I appreciate the help though, and I am sorry I dont mean to be so picky.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelino0919:
I would say more then likely you I'll have to wait until CM9 finishes or at least includes theme chooser. I am a big fan of orange themes too and orange octane has always been my favorite.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nitroz:
If I wasn't too busy on Black Exodus I would kindly take up the request. Maybe if noone else does it in a couple of days, I'll do it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelino0919:
That would be phenomenal I would be happy to assist in any way that doesn't involve .9 pngs
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
I would greatly appreciate that if you ended up with some time. I know you make some great in depth themes!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nitroz:
Well, I don't leave projects half done :) I wouldn't call myself a themer otherwise. Black Exodus is done, its more about porting to as many ROMs as possible.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Which is why having someone like you on this is absolutely ideal!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nitroz:
Just because I was bored. Made a start, let me know if its too bright of Orange or not. Quick 2 minute job.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
The clock in the status bar is just about perfect. The wifi, signal, and battery icons are a little too light/yellow.

Thank you so much for giving it a shot!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] angelino0919:
I don't want to hijack the thread but would it be possible to also theme Google talk as well.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Nitroz:
It can be done :) But, as I said, not much time lately. That was my first shot, in a few days if no-one can or won't do it, i'll take on the project :)

See you soon

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Thank you, hopefully this will get some support and others will be interested!

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Nexus - Verizon 4G LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Jaytronics:
That is funny. I totally understand where you are coming from with some of the icons being themed and others not. You know what would be great? Having all the icons the ability to be removed and just the app name remain. That would be clean. But, the spacing between the names/words should adapt also. Because the space between app names should not be dependent on the width of an app icon. So if using just names we could fit more apps on any given screen. Being Android, I would suppose that feature does or can exist. I have yet to find it though. But, great call on the OCD. I will say this people think quitting smoking is hard? Try to just let something go that we view in our eyes as not absolutly done. Though to most other it would be just fine. LOL!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
lol I thought I was the only one that didn't like themed icons.

I am pretty sure there is an app in the market that will let you make simple text icons though.

I wasn't sure how much support this idea would get. hopefully this will come to fruition!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ahqball:
I'm with yas there Dakota0206 and Jaytronics!

I too can't handle a half themed job, especially for icons.

I agree, stock look is best with a slight change of the current ICS blue to variants of orange and green would be SWEET! :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Dakota0206:
Thanks! glad I am not the only one.

Thank you guys again. Whatever periodic updates come about with the development of the theme I would be happy to post in the OP. I will also update OP with your donate info!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] qasimzia512:
I will make a separate thread for it...it would be released sometimes next week...we already started working on it so dnt need to wry too much :)

Edit: We will no longer be doing this project since Nitroz is already doing it...there is no point of having 2 orange themes :)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] subxero123:
I can't find the app, even when I search the market, I was really looking forward to use this feature :(

Is it only available in the US or something?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thracks:
Not available in Canada without significant effort. It's not worth it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] badassirocz:
Its not on the market as it is not officially supported on the Galaxy Nexus yet. The first one will be the Sprint variant.

[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
So do we have a decent AOSP only ROM for the X2? I was looking through some of the ROMs since I'm really tired of the stock blur and it's incredibly slow rendering, and it seems that there aren't any AOSP roms. Except of course for the CM7 ROM which is still Alpha and doesn't have working bluetooth. About the only thing I like in the blur setup is the voice recognition, it seems much clearer and better apt to recognize voice commands than the stock.
[Motorola Droid X2] 03civicdx:
Short answer is no. But I'm sure there are a few in the works right now. Just gotta sit tight.

Mixer themed cm7 X duce
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
Figures. I got this phone because I assumed it would be unlocked eventually like every other one out there and unfortunately it seems we got shafted this time. I can't believe there is no unlock and no AOSP ROMs yet.
[Motorola Droid X2] drapp:
No unlock still bug dragonzkiller has an alpha going of cm7 that's 100% blur free. Still has a couple bugs and is in alpha still but beta should be out any day now. Check the thread in android developement
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
Yeah but according to his thread blue tooth still isn't working and I use it daily.
[Motorola Droid X2] roland0fgilead:
The beta will bring a lot of fixes and dragonzkiller is squashing more bugs every day. I'm not sure about bluetooth but it looks like most of the other major issues (init hogging resources, no external sdcard, DSPManager crashing) ; have been taken care of.
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
That's good to know, but I still need that blue tooth. I have to have it since I have to use hands free devices while driving.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Just have to have a little patience. Dragonzkiller is working hard on cm7. I'm confident that he'll get it working soon. Even though cm7 is in alpha right now, it's still pretty usable. But, like all early releases, it has its fair share of bugs. But, I'm glad he released it to let us see what's been accomplished so far and it's pretty good for being alpha.
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
I just installed Eclipse tonight. It'll do for now. Definitely MUCH faster than what I had. Has some nice options too. I'll have to see if it's stable.
[Motorola Droid X2] Travisdroidx2:
Eclipse is very stable.
[Motorola Droid X2] RyanThaDude:
+1

Remember quite a few of us, including myself, acquired the DX2 on Day 1 and have had NO AOSP ROM until now with CM7DX2 thanks to 2nd-init. More ROMs will probably go the full AOSP route now that 2nd-init is working now.
[Motorola Droid X2] LordRalh3:
Eclipse is very stable, about the best that can be done for blur

from my X2 roaming the north
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Yup, Eclipse is probably the best ROM out there still based on BLUR. But, CM7 is by far the best current AOSP-only ROM and it's still in Alpha stage.

I love Eclipse, but because it still has some BLUR components in it, I still have to use Zep's V6 scripts to still get better performance out of the phone.

With CM7 Alpha right now, I don't have to tweak anything. The only thing I tweak settings-wise is increasing the SD Cache to 2048.

But it's nice to have a choices for the X2. Let's hope it stays that way.
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
Well, when the CM7 load gets working blue tooth I'll definitely switch over.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
We should see it sometime today (1/16/2012) per Dragonzkiller unless something else comes up. He's currently beta-testing the next release of CM7 and that has bluetooth working, fixed the init process issue (100% cpu), and the sd card flip-flop.
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
Just as I get the Eclipse one all setup too...Oh well I hear CM7 is worth it. The last device I tried CM7 on was an original Moto Droid and it ran so slow, probably due to the older hardware. I'm very excited to see it run on something with dual cores.
[Motorola Droid X2] iBolski:
Per Dragonzkiller on twitter, BT appears to be fixed!
[Motorola Droid X2] naviathan:
Now this is some good news! Thanks!
[Motorola Droid X2] HitMyKush:
definitely go with CM7, its legit
[Motorola Droid X2] motcher41:
CM7's BETA might as well be a full release. I would go with it if you want AOSP. Cant go wrong.....just follow his instructions on install for zero issues.

We dont know if there will be any real difference between the vzw and sprint one except for frequencies we know ..... Will the roms for vzw be able to be used for sprint if they are alike except for freq.... and sprint having google wallet enabled ... I am thinking of getting it since developement will be really good if you can use existing roms ... thanks for any replies
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Thracks:
No, you cannot use existing ROMs. Sprint uses a weirdo RIL that makes it difficult the carrier difficult to program for.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Epix4G:
nexus

if it is the same phone except for frequencies then the Radio interface layer should be the same should it not ? Sprint should have nothing to do with that as google is the one doing software for it not sprint
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
If the frequencies are different, the radio interface layer would be different because the radio will have to communicate with different frequencies.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Buff McBigstuff:
It says here that the RIL is radio agnostic. I assume that would include frequency agnostic. I could be wrong because I had to Google just to figure out what a RIL was.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
I believe there is something strange with Sprint's radios or RIL, I remember reading them being harder to code for as well. That could be because of that bum Wimax they were pushing though.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Epix4G:
nexus

I am thinking that because there are only small freq changes that the roms here should work ... most problems i think were because of wimax and these phones are probably going to be identical .... i will try when i get it if it isnt too long ...

[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jack_R1:
No, after Gingerbread update you have to use a computer with ODIN to root, and once rooted, it's much more painful to flash the idiotic partition system of Galaxy S, requiring you to reflash bootloaders and kernels from PC before flashing the actual ROMs or even for backup restorations, being unable to flash kernel from recovery - because kernel contains the recovery. Actually, if there is a phone that requires PC almost for any type of flashing - that would be Galaxy S.

IMHO, as stated many times - if you can't follow a simple guide to downgrade and root your MT4G, you shouldn't be rooting anyway.

@jack_r1 makes a very valid point. rooting this phone when it had 2.2.x was STUPID easy. Easy and quick enough that i had it rooted before i left the T-Mobile Store, when i bought the phone.

The new method is simple. you downgrade then you use one of two VERY simple methods to root your phone.

If you cannot follow directions and need to rely on a one click root. Either based from the phone or on the PC then you shouldn't be messing with SU access.
