[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arafat_mw:
I am facing download problem on my Motorola Atrix with play store for a week. I have tried four different ROMS..formatted everything. Then Using another android (SE Xperia Arc) I have tried downloading from the play store.. Guess what none of the device downloads anything ..

My guess is, as both of the devices don't download anything via the same Wi-Fi network (but downloads on mobile data) it must be my network problem.. I control my router & I dont understand a lot about Linksys WRT54G v7 router.. but I know for sure..uPnp is turned on & using this same settings on my router I have been downloading apps from Google market for a year.. Any one has any Idea, what is the actual problem here ? It's driving me crazy !

Please help !
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
UPDATE (3/1/2014): Better late than never, the app is now available in the Google Play Store.

DOWNLOAD HERE

This version *should* work for both ICS and JB. I still don't have a Skyrocket, so can someone please download and test and let me know if it works? If it does not, I'll fix ASAP. I'm just publishing the same basic app to the Play Store to make it a little easier for you folks to install it after a flash.

If the Play Store version doesn't work for ICS and/or JB, v0.1 in this thread is for ICS, v0.3 is for JB

I created an app in Tasker's App Factory to test your Skyrocket's charger.

The goal of this app is to help you determine if your charger is providing a fast charge and to see if your charger will cause the dreaded wakelock. You should be able to plug in your charger and launch the app to see your charger type and current reported in the notification bar.

This app was created to accompany my thread on Skyrocket battery life here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1759541

The apk is attached. Just install it and launch the app when you have a charger connected.

For Reference:

The app runs a cat of these files: /sys/class/power_supply/battery/charging_source & /sys/class/power_supply/battery/batt_current_adc

***Version 0.3 for Jelly Bean ROMs cats batt_charging_source instead of charging_source***

It uses charging_source and the values below to determine the charge type

0= No charger connected.

1= USB Normal Charge. There is 5VDC on pins 1&4 and data current is detected on 2&3

2= AC Fast Charge. AC Fast Charge. There is 5VDC on pins 1&4, and pins 2&3 are BRIDGED.

6= AC Regular Charge. This is the charge state that creates the wakelock. There is 5VDC on pins 1&4, and pins 2&3 are OPEN/DISCONNECTED.
​

The app uses the batt_current_adc value to determine the charge current. Anything below 500 means your charger provides a normal charge. Anything above that will likely be around 900 and that is considered a fast charge.

The Tasker project XML is attached in the second ZIP if anybody wants to see what the app is doing.

Version 0.1

First attempt

V 0.3

Should work with Jelly Bean

Updated minimum OS to 4.1

Changed cat of "charging_source" to "batt_charging_source"
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] burgeswe:
Installed this and tested it on 3 chargers, official, cheap brand, and car. Seems to work great!

So far all I notice is that it just doesn't launch if the device isn't plugged in (understandably), and the notification icon persists through closing the app (very minor)

I'm going to try it with another skyrocket and some knockoff batteries and will let you know!

Very nice app!

Edit: I'm running CM9 RC2/Nightly, just to give as much info as I can
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
Thanks for the feedback. I was trying to get it to report "No charger connected" when one isn't connected, but couldn't get it working. I'll try adding that again on my next version.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
The app should tell you that your charger will cause a wakelock if it's one that will. Is it not doing that for you?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
If your charger is recognized as type 6, it will give you a notification like in the attached image. Type 6 causes a wakelock.

Great app for checking charge rate. Keep it up man!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droidbabyxda:
quick question slightly related.

bought new charger... says Charger wakelock 489ma. I bought the usb and it says it is 5v = 2.1a how come it is still not charging like a fast charger? is it cable or the usb plug?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
I really need more info before I can tell you anything for sure.

Is the charger the stock Samsung charger or is it one you picked up at walmart or some other store?

My Samsung charger has two parts, the data cable with micro USB on one end that plugs in the phone and USB on the other that plugs into a pc. And the other part is a plug that plugs in the wall and the USB data cable plugs into it. Now is your charger all one piece or is the data cable separate from the wall plug?

Sent from my two cents which ain't worth much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] pjminn:
Thank you! I can now test for my fastest travel chargers/chord cominations
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droidbabyxda:
hi,

the usb charger piece that plugs into the wall is from monoprice. it is a 4 way usb plug says the output is DC5V 2.1a (max).

i bought two separate usb cord to go along with it. cord description says it is also a usb data cable. (from mono price).

it is not samsung brand at all but it is two piece charger like the original. Just wondering which part is the "slow" charger so I maybe able to replace it. I can't use normal charger it will take me forever to.charge my 3800mah batt.

thanks... any info will be much appreciated
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] garydv2002:
OK that tells me a lot. I bought one of those universal chargers that was a 12 volt plug for the car and a DC wall charger with a seperate data cable. Long story short when I plugged it to either the car, wall or PC it would say charger wakelock and I noticed it had the opposite effect, draining my battery instead of charging. My Samsung charger would work fine but not the universal one. It also made my phone charge really slow on any charger so I cleared my battery stats, wiped cache, and dalvick cache and threw that universal charger in the trash where it belongs. Try finding a Samsung charger and wiping your battery stats and then test your charge with the Samsung charger and see if that helps.

Sent from my two cents which ain't worth much.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droidbabyxda:
ah, well i used it and it did charge. i just have to remember to power off before i use it.

I have tried to install but it keeps failing. I use CW to install so I need a little help.

update: got a refund from monoprice for defective usb wall charger.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
I have the same problem, I'm sorry to say. I was trying to find a single charger that could charge my iPad 2 and Skyrocket at the same time. This was before I had a reliable way to test the chargers (but I knew of the wakelock problem). I went through a few different chargers that were all rated at 2 amps and claimed they could charge two devices at 1 amp each simultaneously. Every one of them slow charged my Skyrocket and caused the wakelock.

I assume it's because the charge type is being recognized as type 6 by the Skyrocket and the phone is designed to limit the current below 500mah in that event. It seems pretty consistent that chargers designed for iphone compatibility don't have have the proper configuration to provide us with a full speed charge.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] rpr69:
Working great here as well. I have had good luck with the Palm Pre chargers, they are all 1 amp, and good quality, if you can get one for a Touchpad they are 2 amp. Should be able to find them cheap... :)

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] phantomjerky:
This app is great! I usually use a wall charger (one piece) that was from a dinky LG net10 phone and this app says it is a fast charge! I also tried my mom's charger, which is from a Motorola bluetooth cradle, and that charger is also a fast charge.

I did, however, find that there is a problem with the stock Samsung charger that came with my phone. I tried it just as a USB cable, and it said slow charge. But when I plugged it and the brick into the same power strip as my wall charger I got a wakelock alert!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] droidbabyxda:
yeah i guess that is the problem. i got a motorola usb wall charger from ebay (seller:dailysteals) for.$3.99 free shipping and it works! Fast charge at 800+ma according yo this app. usb wall charger is till on sale today.

PS: not affiliated with the ebay seller.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dubsteps:
I installed this app, but a few days later I was going through my settings: Accessibility options and a new item is listed -> Skyrocket Charger Test = Off. So when I toggle to On, I get a warning: Skyrocket Charger Test can collect all of the text you type, excluding passwords. This includes personal data including credit card numbers. It can also collect data about your interactions with the phone. OK or Cancel

What's up with that?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Serfma:
It's Google's way of saying "Hey, We have no control of the App from collecting any data you type, just warning you that it's not our fault if something by chance DOES happen." It does this for every app almost (kinda). Wouldn't be really afraid of it happening with this app. :P
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dOoBiX:
Awesome! The app shows I have the charge #2, AC Fast Charge!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Jrockttu:
I created the app with Tasker App Factory, I think that's something built into the apps you create with it or something. I don't know why it's on there, but it isn't built to monitor or capture any info or anything. I have several services in my accessibility list, but as long as their off they can't do anything.

I attached the exported XML of the project in Tasker in case anybody wants to see it. I'll add it to the OP too.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Trinition:
Incosistent vbus_present wakelock from charger

It makes total sense that some types of chargers cause the vbus_present wakelock while others don't. However, I believe I'm witnessing something that doesn't add up: my charger sometime does and sometimes doesn't cause the wakelock. On my nightstand, I keep the original Samsung wall charger. Some mornings, I take it off, get ready and head to work only to find vbus_present has sucked my battery down. Other mornings, it doesn't.

Of all we've learned about this charger wakelock, does that make any sense?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] phoneturf:
Same here. I bet there's something stripped out of the rom that is necessary for this app to function.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] phoneturf:
I have a dual USB car charger mounted behind the radio in my car. It is the 2.1/1.1 A output, but iDevice compatible, so it does cause the wakelock and slow charge. Now that I have banished all Apple devices from my house, I want to replace it. Does anyone know where to get a dual one that is not i-compatible?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] joeln:
I have same problem with my car charger. Plug in my SII and the app shows Fast Charge - all good, battery charging as it should. After about 20 min of leaving the phone to charge (it just sat in my cupholder), I check again and the app gives me Charger Wakelock. Seems like something on my phone may have triggered the wakelock in those 20 minutes. Is that possible? I guess it could have been my car or the charger as well?

Confused.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Trinition:
Charger types

I found this guys' blog fascinating. In it, he elaborates on the charger types: "The chargers use specific voltages on the data pins to indicate the charger type to the device being charged. Because of this, an "incorrect" charger may be rejected by an iPhone with the message "Charging is not supported with this accessory".[7] Under the USB standard, a charger should short the two data pins together to indicate that it's a "dedicated" charger and not a real USB device. However, companies such as Apple, HP, and Sony have their own proprietary nonstandard techniques." (see his table in the blog article: http://www.arcfn.com/2012/10/a-dozen-usb-chargers-in-lab-apple-is.html#ref6)

I wonder how that corresponds, if at all, to the charger types your app identifies.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] alan7825:
Not getting 0, 1, 2, 6

When I run Skyrocket Charger Test, I only get the notification "Slow Charge (USB) 476mA". Is this because it is not a wall charger?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] yaiiyaii:
Yes. It also depends on the charging cord you are using.

I also get the fc on vincom jb ROM app won't start installed using the apk
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] lavacano201014:
It does that because some of the things you can set Tasker to do require that Tasker's accessibility helper be enabled.

Seeing as this little app (which is very nice by the way) was built from Tasker it makes sense that such a thing would appear, though why Tasker decided it needed to include an accessibility helper for an app that doesn't use those functions, I'm not entirely sure.

Maybe we need to go file a bug in Tasker :V

Don't hold your breath. This hasn't been working for anything newer than ICS for our phones, unless you're running a custom ROM. Even at that, it's hit and miss. It doesn't work for any of the JB leaks, and doesn't work for the official release for the Skyrocket that it was made for.
