I constantly use my tab with wifi at home and I have noticed that when my tab comes off standby (after unlocking screen) it connects to wifi, it never used to to happen. Running stock ICS, anyone started experiencing this? I think this is also why my tab runs hot and battery drains.

A friend brought me her 5380M (as says on the label in the back) but when turns on... it reads 5380i.

Now I was gonna do an ODIN flash, and there is no Downloading mode (I tried VOL+/VOL- and Power) Nothing. I tried VOL+, Home and Power....Nothing.

I do have Recovery Access. I've been reading on and was able to CWM 5380i, Tried flashing a 5380i ROM....stuck on Boot.... Tried a 5380M...stuck on boot.

Advice?

[Nexus 4 Accessories] terracode:
The original transmitting coil that is contained with the Uniden UN904 is not compliant with the Qi specification. It lacks thenecessary ferrite backing plate that prevents scatter of the electromagnetic energy and allows better efficiency. Others have added a metallic plate under the unit with a thin plastic between the metal and the UN904. This appeared to work, but may have a negative effect of heating up other metal parts in the phone like an inductive cooktop.

I purchased a Qi compliant coil from Digi-Key (Wurth 760308101 Qi Transmit coil) and replaced the existing coil with the Wurth coil.

A plastic piece (from the UN904 plate cover) was placed over the coil to add a buffer between the coil and receiver.

The test setup used a Blackberry Qi battery door. I didn't want to do this testing with my Nexus 4 for now. The test leads were attached to the terminal on the Qi door and then to a multimeter to verify that the receiver is getting at least 5v.

The tests showed that the receiver was in fact getting 5.05v at the voltage meter.

The Uniden would shut-off 10 seconds into power delivery possibly due to not sensing a draw (not sure about this).

I then tried the Nexus 4 on the setup, but the Nexus 4 didn't start charging. Moving the phone around the coil for placement didn't provide the results that the Energizer Qi battery door provided. The Nexus 4 was almost fully charged, so I have to test it when it has drained a bit. Not sure if this is the issue at this point, but good news that it does provide the appropriate voltage to a Qi compliant receiver.

In other news....

I soldered the coil to the Palm Touchstone board. The Qi receiver didn't receive a charge. I then tried it with the Palm Pixi TouchStone receiver battery door and it showed minimal voltage. I then removed the coil and electronics from the Pixi door and placed this and the Qi receiver on top of the Qi transmit coil which is attached to the touchstone. No go on this either. One thing I haven't tried, which I was planning on before jumping on the Uniden mod was to switch left/right coil lead on the board to see if the inner/outer coil leads were not in the correct polarity. That is next after more testing on the Uniden mod.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] wtang:
Wow this is awesome work! This is true hacking... with a soldering iron and all! Keep us posted on your progress. Thanks!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
Ooooooh! Best of luck! If this works, would we be able to purchase a powermat and replace the coil?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] terracode:
Hmmm... that is a good idea. I wonder if there is some handshake needed between the Powermat and the receiver. If it doesn't then it may work. Need to find out why the BB Qi battery door works and the Nexus 4 doesn't. One thing nice about the Qi coil and the UN-904 circuit board is that the dimensions are small enough to adapt it to possibly an in-car charger and the Uniden is using a 12V power supply.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FatalityBoyZahy:
Looks like you're on to something! :D
[Nexus 4 Accessories] jutezak:
That the receiver outputs 5 volts means it is working, but not that the field strength is correct.

Take an example: you take an AC adapter bought in the US to Europe. If that adapter works in europe, would you conclude the mains voltage in europe is the same as in the US?

In other words: the Energizer plate could be much more tolerant than others.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] terracode:
The reciever is outputting 5V DC to the battery terminals which means it is working. The charger power adapter is 12V DC into the unit. The output after going from transmitter coil to receiver coil and then to the battery terminals is 5V DC which is the required voltage for charging the battery. If the amperage is too low, this could affect the ability to charge. Currently I need to test the amperage output. I tried simulating the TI Qi eval board Qi coil layout. BB Battery door gets 5V, but N4 doesn't go into charging. It could be that the 904 is more Qi compliant than I think and does require a hardware handshake of some sort. The removal and manipulations of the transmitter board may have zapped something too (even though I was very careful with EST grounding and soldering heat). May be a while until I can do more testing since I am on travel to CES next week.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] jutezak:
The transmitting and receiving coils form a transformer. But if the transmitter is running at 12 volts and the transmitting coil is designed for 12 volts everything should be okay.

However, a transmitting coil could also be designed for 5 volts: it would have 58% percent fewer turns than a coil designed to be fed 12 volts.

If you'd feed such a 5 volt coil 12 volts instead, the output voltage of receiver coils would be a factor of 2.4 too high - which may or may not be a problem for the voltage regulator that follows.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] racmar81:
Hi Guys,

There really is a hand shake between transmitter and receiver, so I don't believe youll get a Powermat Chipset charge the Nexus 4 even with a qi coil ...

If I understood it correctly, Qi uses a kind of modulation to transfer a USB-compatible data-stream that, as well does the shake hand. Texas Instruments produces corresponding chipsets controlling the charging. There are some more, but couldn't find them on the fly.

you can find more information about this onthe home page of "Wireless Power consortium"

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AdamOutler:
Hey guys.. Odin3 version3 and higher has gz support. I've been working with this for a bit and tonight I found that Odin will accept tar.md5.gz files. This is important for GNote2 users as the stock ROM is 1.2Gigs! You can get an extra 10-40% compression and 100% gaurantee that the files arrive to your users computer in the condition that you packaged them using this method. I have not found a guide on using the gz format so I thought I would write one up.

You will need:

A Linux computer

Your rom (we will call it MyROM)

How to package for Odin on Windows

I will cover packing into a single file, adding an MD5, and compressing the file down. For the purposes of this, we are working with "MyROM". You will want to call your ROM whatever you like. Just make sure to add version information to the file name so users don't get confused. Also note, the name MUST be consistent throughout the process. If you change the name, Odin can fail.

Another good tip is to put a model number in the name so there is no confusion as to what device your Odin package goes to. Several users, myself included, have 20+ Odin packages on their computer.

So first you want to turn the ROM into a single tar file and then make sure changes are written to the disk.

tar -H ustar -c boot.img hidden.img modem.bin param.bin recovery.img system.img tz.img sboot.bin>./MyROM.tar;sync;

Next we want to add an MD5 to the file so Odin can check its consistancy.

md5sum MyROM.tar >> MyROM.tar;

Now we will change it into a tar.md5 file so Odin knows it has an MD5 attached to it.

mv MyROM.tar MyROM.tar.md5; sync;

Finally we will compress it with GZip. GZip is the only compression method supported by Odin.

gzip MyROM.tar.md5 -c -v > MyROM.tar.md5.gz;

You will now have a file called MyROM.tar.md5.gz.

Conclusion

The first time the file is flashed, Odin will uncompress it into MyROM.tar.md5, then check its consistancy, then flash the file. Using this method you will be transferring the smallest file possible and adding integrity checks.

notes

Note to Verizon GNote2 users: Stay away from using Odin after IROM unlock as flashing a package intended for another device will perma-lock your device into another carrier's bootloaders. Especially stay away from GS3 as the displays are not compatible.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] broodplank1337:
Interesting adam, I always compressed the whole odin package into a rar file (same effect but one step extra). Also I made an article about odin a while ago:

http://broodplank.net/?p=496

Btw, did you know that you can put cwm backups (ext4.tar) inside an odin package? It's the first odin image I ever saw, filled with a CWM backup, and yes it works XD

But it's not an 1:1 copy of course, Also I wonder how nandroid backups actually store their permissions, I mean dd is a 1:1 dump, which is logical, cwm has the updater-script. but the nandroid backups which are actually just tar files packed with the contents, how do they store it?

Last thing, Odin packages can be a last resort fix, believe me, many users reported that flashing my rom broodROM_RC5.tar.md5 (which contains about 13 files, you can imagine how many partitions it includes) fixed their phone when nothing else worked.

So thank you Samsung for leaking your tool, A world with Samsung Kies only would be a very sad "softbricky" world
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] imnuts:
TAR files preserve file permissions.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] mrRobinson:
I still like making a 7z out of the final .tar.md5 file.

The info in OP is great to know as it does save a step for the end user but I'd rather them take a couple steps to vet out the incompetent ones. Could prevent a brick ;)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] AdamOutler:
Only on the Verizon Galaxy Note. All others are IROM locked. The IROM lock prevents flashing of an improper SBOOT. An unlocked VZWGNote 2 can flash any SBOOT.

Other than this specific case, adding third party tools other than ZIP compression means your user must download special tools.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] soba49:
Extra files?

If I were to pack an extra README.txt file into the tar before prepping it for Odin, would Odin then ignore it during the flash? Obviously there's no entry for what to do with an extraneous text file in the pit, so hopefully Odin would just disregard it.

I happened to find out today that heimdall has support for "Heimdall Firmware Packages." You can read and write them from the heimdall frontend (the 1.3 FE binary is forward compatible with my source built 1.4 heimdall). What's interesting, is that the format is almost identical to odin's format. It is still packaged in a tar file, and it contains the same system.img, boot.bin, recovery.bin etc. files you'd find in the Odin tar. By default it's format is Package.tar.gz. The only significant difference is the addition of a firmware.xml file that identifies the proper partition for each image file, as well as the target platform, the author, and other details like that.

So I got curious. I took a Package.tar.gz file generated by heimdall, and repackaged it as a Package.tar.MD5.gz file. Heimdall has no problem reading this! So the upshot is, Odin now handles the .gz, so as long as Odin isn't bothered by an extra firmware.xml file inside the tar, the same format would be compatible with either tool.

PS> Don't flame me about flash counters or bricked phones. I do understand that Odin/Heimdall are only particularly relevant for returning a phone to stock, but that's still a very important functionality and it would be great to have a unified format.

When you are at the lock screen, try swiping down the screen, starting at the clock in the middle. It should slide out the weather. It is by design. At lock, the widget area starts minimized everytime. You can swipe it open, just like swiping open the notification area.
