[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elmo257:
I've been testing the Nexus 7 for a while now, and I also encounter the same problem with the charging. What I found is the USB cable. It doesn't matter if you have an AC charger that has an output of 5V 2A, if the cable is poor quality, the Nexus will get a very slow charge. I tried different cables, and the longer cables have massive problems (anything over 3 feet). Also the cheap cables from the dollar stores have issues as well. If you do have the original cable, you noticed that it's only 3 feet (maybe 4 feet), and the cable is super thick, over 50% thicker than the normal cable mouse cable.

With all the testing I've done, the 6ft cheap cable (got it off e-bay) seems to cause the most problems, super slow charge even with an AC charger and the computer has issues with file transfer. Bought a 5 feet cable from the dollar store, no file transfer issue, but charges real slow.

Used the original cable that came with the Nexus 7 last night with the battery at 35% last night, charged it using my laptop (via usb) and it's 100%charged now.

Here is another way to put it, if you need to jump start a car. If you have a 18 gauge jumper cable versus a 10 gauge jumper cable, which jumper cable has a better chance to start a car? Not only the heavier cable have less resistance, but can also carry a heavy load (amp).

Everything above is JMHO, and from my own personal experience.

Hey guys ,

I think i got my n7 fixed . Apparently it was an issue with my battery , got it replaced from asus .. now it charges normally !

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nimbold:
Only use in-box charger and "Cable".

A while ago i was angry because of 5 hours charging and i figured out the cable length is important. Now that i use original cable it's about 2 hours and half.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeadEyE17:
Possible Fix

My 1st post. Made an account for this. Nexus 7 1st gen 8GB

I have had the slow charging problem for around 6 months, when it occurred suddenly. It would charge at the same rate from a USB and a 10W charger(the device would recognize AC and USB), take roughly 10 hours to charge fully(used to be 3hours 0% to 100%) and the battery would discharge if used(screen on) plugged in. Swapping things around i found the problem was not in the cable nor the ASUS charger. While going over a tear down on the nexus 7(ifixit), I made a theory that the I/O cable at the micro USB port(step 10 of the ifixit nexus 7 teardown) might be the problem(Maybe from all the plugging in and out). So with some difficulty(that glue holding the battery was pretty strong, was worried i would break the device) I reached the cable, pulled it, cleaned it with a cloth, blew on the connector, and put it back together again. And Voilà!! It is charging properly again(3hours 0% to 100%). I hope this helps you and anyone else with this problem.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ganeshp:
you are a life saver!

I did all the zillion tips/tricks/solutions to fix my slow charging issues and finally stumbled upon your gorgeous solution ..did the same thing as you (plucking out the battery was hardest part ..I felt like I'm about to break the screen during this ) and it finally solved the problem !

even polarity doesnt matter now ..anytime anywhere 0-100% in sharp 2.5--3 hours Thanks a lot.

I think this solution shold be highlited a bit more where it might fix the actual slow charging problem !

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] quincyquinn:
I too had slow charging problems tried flashing older versions 4.2 and nothing worked would only get to 30 - 40% over night. So I said I would try this, the battery was the hardest part it was well stuck just take time little by little, then moved the copper shield to access the ribbon cable cleaned it, put everything back and everything's working the way it should be. Big thanks for the heads up...☺

I have a problem where my nexus drains battery too fast when using navigation n the fharge rate cant keep up.. any suggestions.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Charles IV:
Trying that was the most scary thing of my life, when I pulled out the io cable with the copper plating, bt without taking off the speakers, I freeked out, and i swear, i have never unscrewed anything that fast in my life.

After putting it back together and plugging it it, i opened ampere and was getting currents of upto about 800 mA, lower than it should be, but higher than ever before.

I also charged 2% while writing this, unheard of, considering the screen was generally on.

I'm not sure if this will mean that my tablet now always charges properly, but i hope it does.

Thank you very much, you deserve more than 4 thanks. :)

If i remember, i will report back telling if charging is still good.

Hello!

I have a T-mobile Optimus L9 P769BK. I was on software revision G and I rooted it. Regardless, the problem started before I rooted it. My cell signal cuts out completely, the only way I can get it to come back is by rebooting the phone. Does anyone know where (and if) the android OS stores error logs? Also, is anyone else experiencing it?

I hope it's the SIM card and not the phone... We'll see.

Regards,

Something similar, had it in airplane mode, switched it off while at the gate and made 2 calls successfully. Notice in customs that I don't have a signal and figure maybe because they have jammers there for some reason. Get to airport doors and still no signal, had to call my hotel shuttle on my other phone. I rebooted the phone while on the shuttle and got proper signal again.

It's not the SIM card. I got a replacement from T-Mobile, still having the problem. Tried the replacement in an old phone and I don't see the problem.

I just got the phone back from LG. Let said it was a "Language Error" and they "Installed new software". I'm still seeing the problem.

If that does not work I am not sure what else to try. It could be a network issue or the phone still has a hardware problem which would require LG to fix.

Please give thanks/credit if you use this in your ROM

- Donations are also appreciated!

This removes the rather annoying little notification when roaming saying you have lost data connectivity. It's pointless, annoying, and just gets in the way. We already have the roaming icon on the signal strength icon. We don't need another one, right !?

Decompile SecPhone.apk (there a few files that need to be corrected to recompile. Search XDA as there are already threads on this)

Edit SecPhone/smali/com/android/phone/PhoneApp$1.smali and remove the following lines in red below

Sorry about the short response. First, I am trying this on a rooted stock image. Maybe that's the issue? I am 100% roaming in my office. They have placed Verizon repeaters all over the building squashing out my Sprint signal.

I have observed that the fix seems to work at first. I wasn't able to determine what I did, but after about a half hour or so, the roaming indicator flashed again. I think I turned on the wifi at that point so wonder if that executed a command to look for a local cellular signal? When I went into settings to look at the Roaming setting the phone locked up. I pulled the battery and tried to access those settings again. Again the phone locked up.

I hope that helps in some way.

After a couple of hours i wanted to flash back to my original viper s 1.6.3 rom. so i went into the bootloader and clicked on recovery but it did not go into recovery it just went back to my homescreen. so this is the problem i need to re install a recovery but i when i activate wifi it goes into a bootloop and i cant get the mobile network to activate. And when i try to reinstall rom nanger it says rom manager has crashed. Please i need help?

[Sprint LG Optimus G] _Epic:
Almost all (I understand there are a select few, like myself) repair people only look for Superuser and if they don't see it then they don't really dig any deeper. I have a customer who comes into the store all the time and works with metal and other things like that so his speakers are always messed up and he has been refused service because his phone was rooted. Obviously if I was there I wouldn't care but now when he comes in he just hides the applications (Superuser, Titanium Backup, etc..) and makes the phone look "normal". Just in case I am not there, which happens often.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] outerpip:
In my experience, half the time if you just get to talking with a good rep, and they see some sort of effort to return it to stock, they are pretty cool. Generally the repair people, like Epic, know rooting happens and have there's done as well. Just be cool with them.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] foxsdaddy67:

[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] killercheung:
Your qtek's rom will simply overwrited by O2's rom. It just like install a difference version of Windows to your computer (May be it's not a good example...). Except the boot up screen, there is no major different.

I think you should upgrade your qtek's radio to Qtek 3.23 or O2 4.21, because these two version were reported working great on the WM2003 rom.

You can go back to the previous version, but you should have a 64m+ SD Card and a XDArit compatible SD Reader (most stand-alone SD reader should work), because the windows flashing utility (program a) is not working under WM2003, you must use a SD card to downgrade the rom.
