Yes, that's very weird. Placement works fine for me. I put my Nexus 4 roughly on the centre and it charges just fine.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] blackbearblanc:
You lured me in to ordering one.

Hope it doesn't burn the phone or electrocute me
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Can't make any promises :p

You will seriously love this charger :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ptesmoke:
you'll like it. esskay has done a great job reviewing this charger. my only niggle was getting used to placement...but any qi charger is gonna have a sweet spot....coil must match coil...

it is somewhat pricey but its worked great so far for me and doesn't experience any of the defects annoyances of other cheaper brands. and as a beside charger its great...small, nice looking, and doesn't wake the dead :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] knowallyoudont:
Can I use my Nexus 4 when it's charging?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
You sure can. I tend not to though. It's hard to operate the phone when its laying flat and away from me. I have to bend my neck and lean forward, not particularly comfortable. But that's the beauty of wireless charging, when you want to use the phone, just lift it off the charger and place it back on once done. Simple.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] justanut:
And the beauty of wired charging is that you can use your phone while it charges lol.. I'm still deliberating the actual usefulness of this wireless charging (gimmick according to Apple).. seeing that the mat itself is still wired.. plus I'm actually wasting electricity cos of the heat loss.. so what are the benefits over wired charging really?

Not trying to troll.. but hoping for some constructive feedback from users.. anyone went back to cables for example?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Touché..lol

But you do bring up a good point. I guess its all a matter of personal preference. Some people may find it more convenient to just lay the phone for it to charge rather than fiddling with a cable, especially at night.

Also for me, the charger is very discrete and looks well placed on my desk. I just have to place my phone on that small spot and away it goes. It is more convenient than using a cable and looks better too. Also I don't have to worry about any wear to the phone's mini USB port.

The one thing I miss about wired charging is that it is noticeably faster. But I guess that's the trade-off you get with wireless charging. Occasionally I do find myself using wired charging, especially when I'm in a rush to get my battery up.

Great thread :) I have noticed that many are getting the qi charger from ebay here: The Metrans $60:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Metrans...293?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35c5528d05

There is another model for sale on the DX-BOX site here: IHAVE Mobo QI $49:

http://dx-box.com/ihave-mobo-qi-wir...xus-4-htc-droid-dna-samsung-galaxy-s-iii.html

Many of the reviews are for the Metrans has anyone ordered the IHAVE Mobo QI model? Also does the Metrans qi model come in black? I cannot find if it does. Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] qdev76:
k i'm finally done reading the thread, and I have to say it was very enjoyable to watch other people's opinions. Thanks OP for bringing product to light and I'm glad to hear that the sketchiness of the seller on eBay was dispelled.

I was hoping someone would touch on the matte finish of the product. I'm planning on getting a dbrand carbon fibre skin on the back of my N4 and I was wondering if the matte finish feels like colours would rub off on it.

Also, is the black version the same dimensions as the white one?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
I don't believe it does. It might be worth contacting the seller for confirmation though.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
The matte finish on this is great. It's very soft, you can tell it won't damage the back of the phone. I've also used it with a blue Ringke Slim and no colours have rubbed off.

The only thing g I could say is that over time the white surface may get dirtier, but that's a given with any white gadget and its nothing a good wipe won't solve :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] synapzz:
Ordered my Metrans MWT02 on Mar 7th and received it today via DHL.

SUPER FAST SHIPPING! :good:

Overall, the charger looks very nice. Good build quality and the phone doesn't slide around on it. Charges with my Poetic bumper on, and throttles the charging when the phone gets too hot. I noticed it stopped at 81% then it continued to 98% when it stopped completely. Charges pretty quick too, went from 32% to 98% in less than 2 hours time.

I really recommend this product to anyone who doesn't want to buy or wait for an Orb... (like me in Canada.)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] qdev76:
Anyone bought the black one?

I just wanted the put the question out there.

Has anyone gotten the black qi charger that was linked a few posts above this one?

I'd like to know if it deviates from your expectations from the white version.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] bfspider:
Ordered one for myself. Let's give it a spin. Thanks for the great review. I think the 'cons' listed are benign and shouldn't cause any issues to anyone here.

US eBay link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-Metrans...293?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35c5528d05
[Nexus 4 Accessories] qdev76:
I contacted the seller and he's told me that the manufacturer for the white doesn't have plans to make a black edition as of yet.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Talon88:
Please note that, the IHAVE Black Colour one is a different product,

& it's not using Micro USB as Input power source as the Metrans MWT02 use

which is a plus.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Yup, I agree with you on that. The Metrans is $11 more but I think the option of charging via USB and wall socket is a major plus and worth the extra amount.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] vodka_redbull:
DOH!

EBay seller isn't listing any of these for sale when I just checked. Hope he has more stock soon!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] bfspider:
When I got mine, there were 4 left. I just checked the ebay link I posted and there are 2 more still for sale.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Nope, it does seem as though it's all sold out! Not surprised to be honest. I will contact the seller to see if he will be restocking any time soon.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] trident167:
I ordered off eBay and I have to say it shipped super quick. In fact, of all the products I have ever ordered from eBay, this seller (camgraphy) one was the quickest.

It charges fairly quickly I found.

Terrific product you won't be disappointed.

Hi all,

I brought this charger on 25/02/2012 and received it this time last week.

The charger works fine. However I'm selling my Nexus 4 as I got a Sony Xperia Z.

So if any one interested in buying the charger from me, please send me a pm.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Pteer Griffin:
Did you get dinged from customs or anything? Did he/she mark the value under $20?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] brie987:
I knew they were both different items but did not know about the power cord. Yes this is a big deal for me. Thanks for the heads up.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] cisland:
No customs or anything. Just sign and the package is yours.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Pteer Griffin:
sweet! i'll order it now!
[Nexus 4 Accessories] happybana:
The charger I bought from Fast Tech actually charges my phone faster than the wired charger that came with my phone. Doesn't get too hot either.

I don't mind taking my phone off the charger to use it. Is so easy to just lay it back on the charger whenever I'm not actively using it, especially at work. Way more convenient for me than plugging and unplugging a charging cable or being tethered to a wall. Just preference I think, but I had the same concerns about the benefits before I started using a wireless charger and am totally sold after a couple weeks.

Once I get time to start putting together a desktop dock that I like I won't even have to take the phone off to use it. That will be fabulous.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] Unit_A:
Thanks you for the video, i'm really tempted to get this QI charger. Too bad it doesn't have an euro USB power adapter or am i mistaken here ?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] rickykemp:
It comes with a chinese plug, and they put a travel adaptor in the box from the country you order it from.

I have it plugged into my PC, as it can deliver 2 amps unlike most PCs.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
Sorry for the late reply. Seller just informed that he will have stock again in a week.

In the meantime, you can get it from ahappydeal.com with the coupon code. I can't vouch for them myself (as I didn't buy it from them) but they look legit.

Has anyone ordered from aHappyDeal.com before?

After a quick Google search all I see are bad reviews. One exception is www.resellerratings.com which has lots of very recent good reviews but the only problem is they are all in very poor English so I suspect they are fake positive reviews!

I was going to order but I think I will wait for the eBay seller to stock them again.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Khaiyan:
I never really pay attention to "reviews". As I see it, if a site is still standing and accepting PayPal as a payment solution, it's trustworthy. After all, if the customer does not receive the product, they can initiate a dispute and get their money back. If I was to take a guess, I'm pretty sure those bad reviews are due to shipping delays/custom fees, etc rather than the business being a scam or something.

Anyway, that's just my $0.02. If you are concerned, best bet would be to wait for the eBay seller to get stock again, and you can't go wrong with him, excellent service :)

[Nokia Lumia 900] slotti:
Ok, so this is something I used to do on older (Symbian) Nokias all the time to 'debrand' them.

Had anybody tried to flash a ROM from Telcel Mexico onto an ATT Lumia 900? Why, because I want to get rid of the ATT branding, quite annoying to me and the Latin-American version are traditionally clean ROM straight from NOKIA. Obviously one would have to change the product code with NCS.

Any experiences?

Thanks

[Q] Help! Stuck on "Encryption Unsuccessful" after attempting to dl CWM on JB

So I was a bonehead here and didn't think about the fact that I was installing clockwork mod on a JB Droid Razr when it was intended for ICS (I believe), and now I'm stuck on an "Encryption Unsuccessful" over and over. I pressed the reset phone button and have been playing around a bit with command prompt to try and use motofastboot, etc. but cannot seem to figure out exactly where things need to be and what I need to do. Although I am mildly experienced with rooting, roms, and recovery, I would REALLY appreciate if someone could give me a step by step process to try and fix my phone as if I don't know what I'm doing lol, just in case I can't figure something out. Thank you so much to anyone who can help!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dpt5381:
I just did the exact same thing. Im a newb at all of this. Luckily I have another RAZR that I can use! Did you ever figure anything out? It wont let me do anything. No recovery, no ap fastboot, etc....
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
Well, I've pretty much had it with this latest update (ATT, 4.5.145). I'd like to go back to .141 as its easily rootable. My Atrix is boot unlocked, and I have no interest in the custom ROMs. I dont have squat on the phone I need to keep, so I can blow the whole thing away as needed. I have the latest USB drivers and RSDlite ready to go.

I located the following ROM, and downloaded it... "1FF-olympus-user-2.3.6-4.5.141-111212-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P012.sbf", appears to be the correct one.

I've been reading and reading and reading on the forums here (i.e. I've searched a lot), but theres a lot of cross-info, its hard to tell whats applicable in some situations.

So the question....

Which HowTo/Method/Guide would be most appropriate for my situation? Or is there something that would prevent this back-rev?

Thanks for any help or suggestions.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upndwn4par:
Never flash an SBF unless you have no other choice. Major hard brick risk.

In this section I have a stickied thread with the answers you need.

If your bootloader is still unlocked and you still have a custom recovery installed, flashing a fruit cake should work fine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
At this point, I dont have much choice. Unless some one figures out what motorola/att did with 145 to completely screw root (its beyond my abilities), I need to press forward. If I brick it, I brick it. I'll use your sticky as my guide then, seems reliable.

Bootloader is unlocked, though I've never installed a 'custom recovery'. Looks like the various fruitcakes links are unavailable for download?

What is the advantage of the fruitcake version over the version I posted?

Thanks for the guidance :)

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] affiatic:
I just sold mine but will look in PC history. My matrix was stock 4.5.145 and I rooted it. I remember failing a few methods till I found one that worked. If I figure out what I did I will post it for you. If not fruitcake is best way
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upndwn4par:
The difference between what you posted (an SBF) and what I suggest (a fruit cake) is that an SBF is full stock firmware (bootloader, boot, system, radio, etc). It is the bootloader that causes the problems. Flashing an SBF is a crap shoot. You might do it 10 times without a problem, and the 11th time you hard brick your device. By hard brick I mean hard brick = your device is now a paperweight.

A fruitcake is essentially the same as a custom ROM. You are only flashing the boot and system images. This is always the best option for returning to stock.

However, you are in a different situation - uncharted waters so to speak. No one knows what to expect from 145. And since you don't have a custom recovery installed (CWM, TWRP, etc.) you can't just flash a fruit cake like you would flash a ROM. You should be able to use the fastboot method to flash the fruit cake, but again...uncharted waters.

I suggest trying the following in this order based on your current situation (options 1 and 2 assume you do in fact have an unlocked bootloader):

1) Fastboot flash a custom recovery, then try to flash the zip I posted on my rooting guide thread. If this works you will have rooted 145.

2) Fastboot flash a custom recovery, then flash the 141 fruit cake I made.

3) Fastboot flash the boot and system fruitcake images.

All the files and info you need can be found on my "Answers" thread and my rooting guide.

Do not flash an SBF until all else has failed. Let me know how things go with the above before you even consider this.

Edit:

Before you try any of the above, did you try UnlockRoot? It may work.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
Understood, thanks for the explanation.

UnlockRoot couldnt gain root access :(

I will attempt your suggestions :) Thanks very much for the guidance, its invaluable :D

I am pretty sure this is the method I used to root 4.5.145 before I sold it
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
From what I hear, the only thing that Moto "screwed up" (I wouldn't really call it that) is that on .145 they filled up /system. That is actually trivial to resolve - delete a few apps from /system/app that you don't need/want (you can install them later if you want to, some can live happily on /data) and - this is crucial - wipe /preinstall, since that is what fills up /system. If you don't wipe /preinstall, just deleting apps from /system will only last until next boot. Or, well, you don't need to wipe /preinstall, you can just flash the rooting preinstall image.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
I was able to flash CWM Recovery no problem. I was able to flash your superuser zip as well, however it did not root the system. All indicators showed it as being successful, but ultimately it was a no-go.

At that point I flashed your fruitcake 141 images, good to go there. I then applied the preinstall method, and viola, rooted again.

I am good to go, thanks to your knowledge and skills :D Thank you!

Now, all I have to do is email a scan of my middle finger to motorola/att.... lol
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
I tried several variations of what youre refering to, however it was to no avail.

I went as far as to delete several useless items (apps) out of the dir, the free space indicated never changed. The amount I removed was more that enough copy su in... yet, it always reports not enough space.

I tried an experiment. I renamed the 'fake' su (always zero bytes) in the bin dir to 'su.old'. Within 30 seconds, *something* renamed it back to 'su', happened right in front of my eyes in Root Explorer.

When you say 'wipe preinstall', specifically you mean?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ravilov:
Wow, that's just bizarre. Not sure what to think here.

I meant something like

moto-fastboot erase preinstall
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] upndwn4par:
Awesome!

I really don't understand why the superuser zip did not give you root access.

Moreover, I don't understand why some users seem to be able to root 145.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised since this device has always been a PITA. :)
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] affiatic:
Very odd some cannot root. I was on permalocked bootloader and still rooted after soak
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KetoSoi:
Its sad, because the 145 update seemed like it made the phone a little snappier, and the screen was a pinch smoother.

What do you guys think about applying the CWM Zip for update 4.5.145 in my situation? Would that be safer?

Don't know if it a BootLoader or Recovery cause the problem. This phone brought from used and it working for first 2days. I am not sure is it the BootLoader or Recovery CMV cause this problem. Screen can't back on after idle for 2-3min. After 2-3 idle, i press the power button to wakeup the screen, the screen can't light up. If i press more then 4-5 time on power button, it'll boot up in Bootloader and phone reboot again. Sometime i have to do a battery pull to rest the phone.

Question, it's nornal after bootloader unlocked or phone setting wrong?

Any comment or suggestions will be welcome.. thanks :)
