[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
I tried another battery, no luck.

One issues:

- when flashed AOKP or I9100 rom, it works when switched on.

- when flashed stock rom GB or ICS UCLE5 not working on both situation.

Can somebody advise, what to do!!!

It is hardware or software problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
Pls, help! It's hardware or software problem?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Phalanx7621:
OK. So let me get this straight. Your problem is your phone won't charge when its off, only when its powered on. Is that right?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
Phone with stock rom GB UCKH7 or ICS UCLE5 not charging and going to reboot when is on, not connecting to computer. Just showing MTP connecting ahd going to reboot. After grey battery icon blinking and not chatging.

When off same - battery blinking, with charger and computer same. When is off and disconnecting from charger phone switching on without pushing power buttom.

With ICS I9100 rom+hellraiser or AOKP task450 rom is working fine, when is on. Charging and connecting to computer without problem. When off same problem blinking battery.

Thank you.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
If it works on Hellraised ROM's or AOKP, then its not Hardware.

Now this charger that your hooking up to, is that an actual wall charger, or plugged into your PC?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] raikol:
that happens when you use a non-OEM battery in an I777 with a GB or ICS Samsung based ROM. a non-OEM battery will work on AOKP or similar ROM. look at pic to see OEM battery. it has NFC (near field communication) built in. most Sammy based ROMs need that to work properly.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] fakhri:
Device pluged to charger or computer same problem.

Charger and battary are OEM. Before i used without problem.

This happens when i flashed kernel to UCKH7 rom and after flashing suddenly computer got error and showed blue screen. But device showed PASS, but not unpluged from computer.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] clay101eve:
I have a question. Are you using the same charger for both your computer and wall adapter, just unplugging the cable? Or are you using a completely different USB adapter for your computer?

Hi guys,

I am extremely happy with my Xperia S battery life after updating to FW .75. I never had android phone (X10, ARC S) lasts 3 full days without charging. I have test it this time with less wifi use, no 3g, less music and I am really proud of my Xperia.

Thanks.

ha ha, i was thinking that.

but to be fair, even if that's the case, 3 days is pretty good.

my current phone (wildfire s) even if it's left on standby most of the time, will only last around 26 hours MAX....that's with everything switched off and the phone basically sat idle for the whole time....

i've just ordered an xperia s though, so i'll be getting it tuesday :)

Hi, I can´t find tun for openVPN :(

I´m at stock kernel (3.0.15-671647) and ALF2...

I have only found next tun.ko compatible kernels:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anshumandash:
I have rooted & unlocked the boot loader on my Nexus S with ICS 4.0.4. I had flashed a custom recovery and had flashed the SU. After re-boot, I found that that the custom recovery had gone and the stock recovery was appearing.

Later I installed ROM Manager and clicked on flash ClockWorkMod recovery. It downloaded & installed. Immediately I could boot in to ClockWorkMod recovery and see all the options. Later I wanted to flash a customer Kernel. When I tried the option in ROM manager to boot in to recovery, it goes in to the stock recovery.

What's wrong? How can I flash a Kernel now. Can I flash using the stock recovery? Why is the phone not saving the ClockWorkMod recovery?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gleenfield97:
try install cwm throught fastboot first (guide here). The cwm version of the guide is outdated, so make sure to download latest version of cwm.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Harbb:
Delete or rename /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and flash CWM one last time. It'll stick. Each boot, stock ROMs reflash the stock recovery unless you delete/rename that file.
[HTC One X] aLcHy09:
Hi Guys,

I have been playing Samurai Vs Zombies for some days now and I notice that when I play the game without the charger connected, the phone does get warm but not super hot.

When I connect my charger to charge while playing, for sometime there is no issue and then phones back becomes super hot and the battery indicator ,which is supposed to just give out red indicating charging, will start blinking red greed red green in that order repeatedly...

Does anyone else experience this and why is this?? What does the lights blinking mean???

Does it mean that the phone is overheated???
[HTC One X] zvieratko:
It means the battery has overheated and it will not charge until it cools down. This has been my top complaint, as it makes HOX unusable for car navigation, car recording or longer gaming (it will just discharge and then die)
[HTC One X] aLcHy09:
WTF!!!!

Then how the hell will we use it for anything while charging.... You open maps and turn on GPS that will also create a lot of heat... Car navigation is screwed up big time... :mad:

I think if this is the case the new base 2.05 will serve much better as people have reported that the phone is relatively cooler when compared to the current build..
[HTC One X] _delice_doluca_:
actually there is a precoution for this by HTC. when your battery is below %20 the CPU clock will be limited to 1000Mhz. the heat comparison between the 1Ghz and 1.5Ghz is 72C and 85C (these are the values i found out after stressing the device in a really hot enviroment for half an hour).. so when the CPU heat is lower basicly the overall heat is also lower and the device will charge itself again..

the good news is you will never run out of battery, the bad news is it will not charge above %20 and something and mosty you will be using your device at 1Ghz CPU speed.. but hopefully this can be solved with a software update (maybe limiting the current or the CPU clocks while charging)

i think the battery choice by HTC was a complete mistake (the one and only mistake the One X has).. it is not producing 5A but or anything, just an average battery but gets hot very very easily without any valid reason.. besides the unibody design is keeping the heat inside of the device.. i wish one day we will be able to replace it with an bigger capacity and more heating-proof one..

[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dluciv:
Workaround found. See below.

Being a newbie, I was not allowed to post to MiniCM thread, however I suppose it could be more relevant.

I have Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 with properly (with factory wipe etc) installed MiniCM7-2.2.1-shakira (Android 2.3.7) and 2.6.29.6-nAa-11 kernel. Overall very happy (especially comparing to 2.1 stock firmware from SONY), but...

Wifi tethering works perfectly, except... DNS.

Built-in server starts and listens on port 53. And resolves nothing (it simply causes timeouts). Using 8.8.8.8 or mobile operator's servers does not help: NAT seems to fail UDP passthrough. This also leads to DNS timeouts.

The other annoying (not fatal, but annoying) particularity is that hotspot switches off when on battery and when screen locks. Changing WiFi policy to always on does not help.

So thanks a lot to anybody who can help to solve this. Log harvested by logcat is attached.

No thirdparty software was used, only built-in Android features.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderX:
I don't now about the DNS issues but for WiFi hotspot bug there is no fix afaik, you'll have to bear with it. Perhaps connect phone to charger and set screen time out to some large value and then start tethering. Or perhaps try using USB tethering.
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dluciv:
Thank you. In fact it is worth enough to connect to charger. It does not stop tethering with blank screen.

But DNS blows my mind... DNS server is user mode application, relatively simple... It looks like DNS server works behind the same NAT that throws out UDP.

I worked the problem by using a proxy server (proxoid or ProxUrDroid), but this solution sucks very much: is is too far from "push and use"...
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dluciv:
Workaround found

DNS

The problem is in the way how built-in dnsmasq and NAT behave. NAT does not allow UDP traffic, and dnsmasq starts behind NAT. Then dnsmasq tries to contect upstream DNS servers using UDP and fails.

The solution is to prohibit dnsmasq from being DNS server and replace it with something more flexible.

Go to /system/bin with some root-enabled file manager.

Rename dnamasq to dnsmasq.real.

Create dnsmasq file with the same permissions and ownship as original dnsmasq (now dnsmasq.real) binary.

Edit it with text editor and write the following script to it:

#!/system/bin/sh
exec /system/bin/dnsmasq.real $@ --port=0

This dirty hack does nothing good itself except freeing port 53. Dnsmasq can has a config file with the same option passed in more elegant manner, but I found no way to make dnsmasq read it.

After throwing away dnsmasq's DNS, give a way to an awesome software piece — DNSLite (search Google Play, we are all very happy with XDA that does not allow outside links to me). It should run separately. And it has a killing feature: it can always contact upstream DNSs via TCP! So it saves the show.

BTW other way is to use proxies like ProxyDroid or ProxURDroid. I do not know when they get DNS info, but they also work. But this is definitely not so handy for clients attaching to the hotspot.

Power

Simply install Wake Lock - PowerManager from market, it works. Use the setting to turn screen and keyboard off, but leave CPU on: software access point relies on CPU being active.

Tethering while power is plugged is also a good idea: it does consume power. In this case nothing s needed to lock, the AP will keep on automatically.

Shutting down

Do not forget to shut down everything you started before (especially unlock power) to leave more charge in the battery.

Hi guys,

A friend of mine bought his HTC One X a couple of months ago and hasn't done anything to it, it's completely stock.

A couple of nights ago he said he was in the browser, all of a sudden the phone rebooted, loaded back up to the homescreen and then powered off.

Since then he hasn't been able to get it to boot or charge, and has now given it to me to try and fix.

It's been on charge overnight for around 9 hours and there is still no response in terms of leds flashing ect.

I've had a search and the issue has been seen before but not often.

Is there anything you would suggest trying? What would HTC do if this device was sent back, ie is there a 'download mode' for the One X or something similar, that HTC would force the device to boot into?

Thanks!

Anything you will do requires the phone to be unlocked with a custom recovery installed. This procedure is irreversible since the current LOCKED status will change at best to RELOCKED which will cause you a lot of headache later with HTC support. My advice send it to support without touching it.
