[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
Hello! So my phone is new, just bought it on 22nd Dec! It's not rooted, and i havent done much to it other than downloading apps. Till now, the battery has been charged to full, drained to 0 and then charged to full again. So today, i tried rebooting my phone and bam: battery drain! O_O Is this normal? I've looked around some forums, but all of those are related to rooted phones so, yeah >o<!! It's running ICS also, btw.

Since the phone is new, i think its normal, but i don't know actually. Anything i can do about it? Or will it become normal after a few days? :confused:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] datagubben:
I have same "BAM" sometimes after reboot. :crying:

But don't drain to 0, its better to charge when its 20-10% left.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peetr_:
This is normal. After a few charge cycles, the measuring of battery will be accurate.

But if you do factory reset, or too many restarts, you'll notice this inaccuracy again.

And again, when the battery has 1%, it has about 3,2V, which is safe and does not damage the battery. Control mechanism for battery is good enough, there is no need to worry about damaging the battery by discharging.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] nightwing369:
Which country are you from/Where did you buy your Xperia V and through which network?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
I bought it in Singapore, under Singtel. If that helps o.o
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
I hope it's really normal then, since another problem I found is that the phone sorts of heats up throughout the night and sometimes I can't unlock it. And other times, after locking it, if sort of can't be unlocked anymore until I pull the battery.

This is my first Xperia phone, got to say I'm kinda disappointed.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
So i posted this during christmas right? It's like the 4th now, and the problem still persists.Over ONE WEEK. ROAR. This morning, the phone heated up for no reason (again; don't know how many times it happened now ,_,) and i couldn't unlock it and i pull the battery and bam! Over the course of the week, it's obviously been happening again and again. I'm getting so frustrated with this phone, but i don't want to go without a phone by sending it to repair, not to mention the center is so FAR away from me. :(

Just hope for the problem to be solved, or go away soon. :eek:

Does anyone else experience this too? :confused:

(PS: I've charged my phone quite an amount of times, since i'm a heavy user and it's a NEW phone, so yeah, i get busy playing with it, to the extent i almost charge it everyday. Is that bad?)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] hernit:
Yes, going through the sleep of death on my xperia v. It started when I switch on the location-based wifi service, and stopped when I disable that service.

I also turned off google location reporting which sort of saved my battery life.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
thanks bro! will try out and see what happens in a few days. :fingers-crossed:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] hernit:
Spoke too soon, just got another sleep of death :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
i was safe for last night, but seeing as to how you still got the sleep of death, i guess i'm not that safe. i just hope sony will come out with some solutions sooooooon. :crying:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] datagubben:
Repair with SUS, it has been discussed in another thread somewhere. :good:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
yeah, i know the thread you're talking about. i've done that way, way earlier, like the day after i experienced it for the first few times, and it didn't work still, :eek:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] chesterr:
Seriously, I'm on JB Singapore firmware and still I'm getting SoD, when will sony come up with a solution?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
This is the second time youre posting this. And youre completely out of topic.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] chesterr:
I know, cause it gives me weird SoDs and battery drains, mainly SoDs, :eek:

Off topic

and you're from Sri Lanka, how rude of you to talk to another Sri Lankan like this, :p
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] thedisturbedone:
Haha I never knew. But it would be frowned upon by others if you do this. So stick to one thread :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] whatisparadox:
okay so i know i'm the OP and i haven't been on in AGES but i'm here to update on the situation.

i guess the problem is.... perhaps solved? i don't know what i did or if i did anything but the problem seemed to have went away by itself. :eek:

the only 'problem' now is that the battery level is still fluctuating whenever i restart the phone :insert facepalm:

and contacting SONY didn't really help, they just told me to go down to their service center -_- i would go down, but i don't want to do a 1-for-1 now. i mean, the problem is... sorta solved, somehow, now.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xfrancis14:
Hey so I got beats by dre solo HD headphones and they have a skip and volume adjuster but it doesn't work with my Nexus 7 which is weird cause it works with my iPod nano, does anyone have a fix or anything for this?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siralsmooth:
2 things. Volume and track skip buttons are different across all devices. Apple has their standard. And then android devices such as Samsung Sony HTC all use their own values/resistances for the switches for the correlating buttons.

Also, the N7 doesn't support the mic as its been researched and only allows for a 3 pole 1/8 in plug. Which brings me to part 2, the 1/8 in jack for most headsets use the mic pole for the resistance values.

Short answer.......wont ever work.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shags72:
I just modded my daughters Nook Color using the following instructions http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1030227

Everything went great but now do I have to block ota's? Also can I sideload like I did on my Nook Tablet? Thanks for the help everyone!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwong96:
1) If you installed CM7 or CM10 internally on the Nook Color you do not need to worry about OTA updates since you no longer have BN firmware. Yes you can side load apps in CM7 or CM10. "Enable unknown sourses" in settings-security.

2) If you just rooted the Nook Color and retained the stock firmware you may still get OTA updates. Enable "unknown sources" to sideload apps. Read the threads on how to block otaupdates on stock firmware.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shags72:
I did install it internally so that is great and so is sideloading! I did have a problem this morning though. This is my daughters and she had ran the battery completely dead. I charged it and tried to turn it on and it wouldn't do anything. I recharged it again and I held the on button for like 20 seconds and then again and it came on booting to cm7. The same thing happened to my sons tablet (only rooted no cm7) yesterday and when I did it, it went back to factory settings. Ah well. Any ideas on the power problem? I understand this is the color forum but just mentioning the tab as I thought it might be related. Thanks!!!!!
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hwong96:
Once the Nook Color goes completely dead it will not turn on until the recharge level is at 15 percent or more. It may be the same for Nook Tablet since they both use the same charger/cable. Did you lose root due to an ota update? You will get better support for the Nook Tablet in the Nook Tablet forum.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shags72:
Thanks for the help on my color i was wondering bot the power level. I will post on the tab forum thanks again!

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BaconBits:
You should be able to root it with this, since it is "the same phone".

http://www.putlocker.com/file/67AA33E8BAA705EA

I have an Amoi N821 and I've used a ported Lenovo P770 rom, Google Play is not installed because these phones are only intended for the Chinese market.

I suggest that you look keenly for less mainstream forums whom are into these phones. Unfortunately you won't find much here. Perhaps Chinamobiles/HTCMania/Movilesdualsim have more info on this.

Good luck.

Hi. Am currently on Android Revolution HD 5.0 ROM for my Samsung Galaxy Note 2. I was just wondering if this is the best/stable ROM for my phone as I am quite puzzled because of the many ROMs (AR HD versions like 6.0 and others) available out there.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehunt33r:
Hi guys,

I've just received my Nexus (under the Christmas tree). Obviously, I tried to put my handmade cut SIM Card, but it's too short. As I'm in holiday, isn't there anyway to make my Nexus recognize it ? (See Pics) I'll buy a new one later but I'd like to have a phone during these holidays,

Thanks a lot ;)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] w0dash:
You could try to insert it and see what happens :cool:.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehunt33r:
I obviously tried, but the SIM Card isn't detected.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] blue_algae:
we are on the same boat. I don't think there's any other way other than getting a replacement sim.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss429842:
Check whether you are inserting SIM from right side
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:
Try putting a small spacer in the back of the sim. For the live of all things Android don't put something that will fall out and get lodged.

I have a Micro sim in my Galaxy Nexus without an adapter with no issues at all. I just centered it. The connectors themselves are the correct size, just centering it is the trick
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vindikleuk:
Another tip for you: after inserting the sim card, reboot your device. It won't detect a new sim when it's on.

If it doesn't work, take the sim out, wiggle it a little, and put it back in, and reboot again. This is how I eventually got it to work after a lot of encouragement from a friend, and after at least ten times of trying :p. I'm assuming you're putting the card in in the right way, but just to confirm: the chip side of the sim should go towards the back of the phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehunt33r:
So I,m indeed putting it the good way.

Then I'll try tickling it to make it work

Edit : is the chip more toward the center of the phone or toward the outside ?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:
It depends on the device. The Galaxy Nexus needs to sit about 1/3 down and slightly to the left.

I'd find a picture of a normal sim and compare it to yours and find where your missing the gap
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vindikleuk:
Here's a picture of a regular micro sim in my sim tray. It should help with positioning your chip. You can also put some tape (the thin stuff, like this) on the tray, then position the sim card on it at the right spot. It won't be able to move because of the tape.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
I feel that every SIM card has it's own positioning of the golden plates. Mines was more towards the top left edge of the card. Not all of them are done equally.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:
Yeah but they should all be fairly universal. Otherwise adapters wouldn't work
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Probably. When I was cutting my regular-sized SIM and compared it to another regular sized (wanted to try the cut on a extra SIM card i had laying around before I did it to my real one first) and noticed the two gold were on different parts of the card.

Worked fine for me on the cut though.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehunt33r:
Just cut one good, the chip was bigger than mine and longer but it fits and works. Still, I have to try to put mine

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anoymonos:
How about just using the micro Sim that comes with the phone.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Im not sure whether you got it from the store but by buying the phone from the play store doesn't include a sim card in the box.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] thehunt33r:
Exactly, no Micro SIM coming with it.

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anoymonos:
Holy fail Google. So they expect all of us to cut our old Sim card to fit their device, how professional not to mention that a lot of old Sim cards are not even considered 4G. I bought mine from a retail store and I made sure the phone came with a sim
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:
Not to be a ****, but explain to me how a device that is completely unlocked supposed to ship with a SIM? There are no less than 10 different SIMs that would be required just for the US, not to mention all the other countries the device is shipped to.

No device shipped unlocked is sold with a SIM, unless you choose a carrier while purchasing.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] steviewevie:
You realise that a SIM is specific to a carrier, right ? Google can't provide a SIM with the phone because they're not a carrier. If you buy the phone from a carrier's store, together with a contract, then of course you can get the correct SIM with it.

It's easy enough. Either cut down the SIM yourself, take it to a shop and get them to cut it down, or ask your carrier for a new micro SIM.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aindow:
It's just like any sim free phone bought from anywhere. If a store were able to provide a sim then great, although it certainly isn't the norm. As for 4g, the nexus doesn't officially support 4g LTE, only 3g services such as HSPA, HSPA+ and DC-HSPA or as some refer to the latter as 3.5g. 4g is just a name T Mobile US decided to give these services. Apple tried doing the same with their iPad and were taken to court in several countries for being misleading.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
Are you really complaining about a phone that is sold UNLOCKED for ~$299-$349 because they didn't include a SIM when a SIM is exclusive to a carrier? SIM card replacements are usually free or at a very small cost anyway. It's not that big of an hassle.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shotta35:
I did that and cut mine too short as well. I just simply cut off a small sliver off the bigger SIM card and slid it in the back :) I got my MicroSIM a day later s o that's all i needed but it worked for the time being.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NexusIncarnate:
Leave him alone. He'd rather not pay $0.99 for a sim card and instead pay an extra $50/month for a 2 year contract.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anoymonos:
Ouch my bad I did realize that the phone shipped unlocked, makes sense now.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] altimax98:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cugami:
Hello

I have been using my int Gs3 for sometime and decided to root and explore the mods and custom fw world. I have started with getting to root access and after that install CWM.

Then I try to install nightly cyanogenmod 10. It didnt work and boot back to normal GS3 Touchwiz interface. After that I tried the GooManager and when the phone is restarted it went to bootloop. I removed the battery and put it back. The problem started there.

The phone does not boot to any OS, I only can see the galaxy s3 9300 black splash screen and awatis there. I can go into download mode, but when I go into recovery mode, I can see the Android robot, and it dies :) The screen is too fast but what I can see it cannot mount EFS, System and any folder.

So I have tried several different methods

- Tried to flash with original rom, different roms, CWM and what I can find suitable for international model. But everytime I got stucked in Nand Write part. In some of them, the flash started and stucked in installing some parts(passes the cache and hidden and stuck after that)

- Tried with bricked phone roms, different PIT files and Bootloader Vralec methods.

- When I am trying these, I have tried with 3 different PC's with/without KIES and Samsung drivers installed. When I plug the phone in Download mode, the PC recognizes it as Generic device.

- I manage to flash the CWM but when it restarts it does not go any further than the first splash screen, but in Odin, some time later it turns to pass. Funny, when the phone is on Galasy S3 black splash screen, the pc recognizes the phone and starts to install the driver.

So, here is an interesting flashing story of mine. I really would appreciate your valuable comments and suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Flare106:
Hi there guys,

I have been doing relentless search and I haven't been able to find a whole lot of answers, so I decided to post this question here.

I have been trying to use the i717 ROMs on my T879 by replacing the boot.IMG with one from the t879 with decent results, the only problems that seem to be, are no WiFi and no vibration. I have narrowed it down to being kernel related, but from there I don't know where to begin to move forward. I was hoping someone here may have some information regarding these issues?

Also I have seen that some of the i717 users were running t879 ROMs were these same problems present for them?

Any help is appreciated, Thanks!

Got WiFi working, now just working on vibration.

When I look in /sys/class/timed_output/ I am missing /vibrator directory and files that need to be in this directory. I was able to adb pull this directory from a T-Mobile ROM but its not allowing me to adb push to this directory on the i717 ROMs.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rr5678:
When it stopped charging, it turned the screen on and kept it on all that time. Looks like it decided to jump to USB charging. Did you happen to notice what the previous screen said?

Something like

85% - Charging (AC)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bbilko:
I have a widget that shows the charging status, I did notice that it said AC.

Only thing I did different was to use a 3m USB extension. Done the same plenty of times with my Sensation but this is the first time with the N4.

The screen was on this morning and I have it set to stay on when charging.

I might turn that off when on USB charging (I think Tasker can do that)
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rr5678:
In my opinion, I think you shouldn't leave the screen on while charging. The screen is a huge power hog, and I've seen power consumption hit 1A on this phone. (and the charger is only 1.2A, which is why I use my TouchPad's 2A charger for this phone :p)
