I believe that forces fast charge when connected to a computer via usb. Some people have said it may fry your usb port but I don't know how true that is.
[HTC Droid DNA] voxigenboy:
Android phones in general charge slower when connected via car charger.

this Motorola one here works fine:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000S5Q9CA

or you could always get a power inverter and then use whatever cable you want.
[HTC Droid DNA] Jrocker23:
Get the Verizon car charger. Works fine for me..

[HTC Droid DNA] Spaded21:
I ordered these cables from Amazon, got them today and I'm still getting slow charging from the car charger. These are really high quality and still not working. This is pretty ridiculous, HTC should have at least made this optional.
[HTC Droid DNA] arisch86:
I posted on this a while back, its the cable that causes the issue. If you open up the cable and short the data wires it works perfect. All you needs is wire strippers, electrical tape and shrink tubing.
[HTC Droid DNA] Spaded21:
Thanks for the suggestion. The cables I bought are very high quality, charging specific cables, and I'm still getting slow charging in the car. If HTC only wants to support official OEM chargers that's fine, but then they need to make an official car charger!! :mad::mad::mad:

Also, why does HTC only support using the OEM charger when the DNA supports Qi charging? Doesn't make "Sense"
[HTC Droid DNA] voxigenboy:
I tried that with the Rezound awhile back and afterwards it still registered as 'charging USB'(aka slow charging).

P.S. that Motorola charger I mentioned above, I opened one up before and noticed it just had the 2 power cables(black & white) and they were also much thicker then the standard cables w/ all 4 wires.
[HTC Droid DNA] arisch86:
When I did my cable hacks I cut the cable in half, put a piece of shrink tubing on one end reconnected the power wires, shorted the data wires on both plugs. When you do this you cannot reconnect the data wires. They must be separated. I'll post some pics in a few to show you what I mean.

Basically this is what you want it to look like...connect the positive and negative, you can reconnect the shielding too. Also I highly recommend soldering the wires together. Adds strength.
[HTC Droid DNA] baronmxc:
You can do the cable hack shown in the post above as some non OEM chargers do not have the data wires shorted at the charger itself. You can either hack the cables, or if you need the cable for data, then modify your charger. Please make sure your charger is rated at least 800mA. Any charger rated 800mA or below will charge slow. Computer usb ports are rated 500mA and this is why it charges slow. My car's radio has a usb hook up and it also charges my phone at 500mA which is not enough if I'm calling, navigating, etc. The OEM charger is rated 1A. You can use a 2A charger as well but don't use it everyday. Higher rated chargers do charge the battery quicker, but at the expense of the long term battery life.
[HTC Droid DNA] arisch86:
In my testing even shorting the chargers data pins on chargers seems to be more of a miss. I've done a few and even after shorting them they still state USB mode. It mainly stems from the data pins being present in the cable itself. Two of the chargers I shorted were for a vehicle and they were rated for 2.0 amps. Also if just charging the phone yes don't use high output chargers. But if charging in the car high output won't hurt if you are using navigation, music etc...it actually needs the higher output to charge hence needing to charge at the AC rate.
[HTC Droid DNA] WyckedKnight:
Charging

I have this issue as well now, I never had it till the update back in Feb. I used other Android phones on my car charger and they charge just fine and it only happens with my DNA. I think there is a firmware issue that is causing this to happen.
[HTC Droid DNA] eakeller:
This afternoon I hacked a cable as shown above, to use with my car charger. I'm glad to report it worked like a champ and my phone went from slow car charging to very rapid charging.

Thanks for the tip.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattes1988:
Hi guys,

I'm looking for a solution to toggle all 3 location settings when starting Google Maps. Since these settings eat up battery like crazy I've disabled them and always have to enable and disable when opening/closing GMaps manually.

One possiblity could be an app/widget that could be automatically opened when opening Maps. The other could be a tool that is implemented into the system (?) toggling these settings automatically when starting certain apps needing them.

Pls quote a link or say if it's even possible.

Cheers,

Matthias
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MistahBungle:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattes1988:
Well, it should work as far as I've worked it out.

Opening Maps now opens the location settings so I can toggle them.

With SGS2 and my ROM (Neat Rom) the GPS tools inside Tasker (there is a special area to toggle settings directly) doesn't work cause Android doesn't allow changing loc settings without user permission.

Most interesting function though is the run shell command. I couldn't find commands toggling GPS settings. Anyone here knows shell commands???

That should work!! :D

(I could create an app then, if you want) :D

*EDIT: Searched the web for commands in shell, very tiring... Found out that it's not possible via the setprop command.. Tried to see effect of toggling GPS in logcat, but it's very heavy, couldn't find a thing-

Any ideas?? A dev should know.!? Shouldn't he/she??

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bears85:
I am new at rooting, this is the first device I have tried to root. I followed the thread for a triple boot CM7 , CM9 and CM10 (also stock OS) from Malloneem. I decided to only flash CM7 and CM10 to NT 1.4.3. Everything worked great, except during the initial setup of both CM7 and CM10 it will not recognize my WiFi. I have tried twice, after first time I wiped NT and reformatted the sd card and started from scratch. same result both times.

I read through the replies and noticed that someone else had the same problem. the response said to wipe the cache and it should fix the dalvik. I wiped both the cache then tried and then wiped the dalvik and had the same results. With the CM10 it says "turning on wifi" and stays there.

I am a new member to xda so I cannot post a reply to the original thread.

Any help would be much appreciated.

If I cannot get this to work is there another method where you can use CM10 and stock OS? (something that is extreamly easy to follow)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
You can use this:

http://iamafanof.wordpress.com/2013...-1-jellybean-sdcard-img-for-nook-tablet-0110/

Write the image file to an SD card and you'll be good to go. You can use a repartitioning software to expand the partitions on your SD if you want. Use the instructions on the link I provided.

The SD card image will contain CM10.1 4.1.2. If you want to use a different ROM you can download the SDC version of any ROM ( has to be SDC!), place the zip on your SD card or internal storage. Boot into SDC recovery and installed the zip file. You'll need the GAPPS zip also (which has to be SDC also.)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bears85:
Thank you for the help. My appologies for the redundant question but when I flash this ROM I will be able to bounce between CM10 and the stock B& N OS correct?
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
Yes. Because CM 10 will be on your SD card. Stock will be on your internal. If your internal partitions or anything is messed up ( maybe the reason you can't boot stock) you can tell from CM.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bears85:
Thank you again. I have read throught the instructions on the link you provided and I am a little confused on the partitioning part. As I mentioned before this is my first time rooting anything. The instructions on the triple boot regarding the partitioning of the sdc were clear giving sizes for the newly created partitions etc., I didn't see that on this link (unless I missed it). Could you explain it so a newbie can understand it?

Thanks.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
Well is there any reason why you would like triple boot? You need a fairly good size SD card if you want three systems. I just provided the simplest way to run cm on the nook. Write the image to your SD card and it will make it boot able. If you want to triple boot then setup your SD card partitions like you had before, but you only need to install the zips as alt boots.

Again, you probably don't need triple boot. Cm10+ has everything you'll need.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bears85:
No, I dont need the triple boot. Being a newbie I may have misread something (probably the case) but the link you gave me directed me to partition the sd card. it was this portion that was not clear to me. I was referencing the directions for partitioning on the triple boot thread as a comparison. The site you gave me said to partition the card but gave reference as to how big to make each partition. I don't need the triple boot.

My kid uses the NT to help read (read to me, etc...) I wanted something to get more of a tablet feel while keeping the stock system as well.

Thank you again. I appreciate the help. I will look at it again.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
On the iamafanof site you can scroll down there will be an SDC image. There is a difference between the image and the zips. All you need to do is download the SDC image, write it go your SD card using an file writer ( win32 disk writer will do) and your SD card will be ready to boot. Put it in your nook and and it will boot cyanoboot and should automatically do a SDC boot. It takes a little bit for the first boot to start ( usually 2 or 3 minutes)

Once you get your nook to boot cm I can tell you how to expand your SD partitions to hold more apps.

If you still have problems with WiFi it may be a different problem ( shouldn't happen).

If you need help or need a step by step guide I can find one or make one for you.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] Bears85:
Thank you for your help. I worked and was simple. If you could explain the partitioning that would be great. If not, its working just the way I want it.

Thank you again!!
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
You have 4 partitions on your SD card: boot, system, data, sdcard. Your boot partition holds the files the boot CM. This is where recovery, mlo, uboot, etc is. System holds files essential for the ROM to work.

The only two you need to worry about are data and SD. Your data partitions holds apps. That is when you download an app the files in the apk file are put there. This would be like your internal storage for any phone or tablet. SD card is like an external SD card for your phone or tablet. Its where extra data files, photos, music etc go.

Depending on what size of SD card you have determines how big you can expand your data or SD partition.

Using a partitioning software ( like GParted) you can change the partitions and expand them to the side you want. I have a 16 GB SD card. So I expanded my data partition to 4 GB, and the rest went to SD card. Its okay to delete data or SD partition to expand it, but don't delete boot or system because you'll have to reformat the card and write the image file to the card again ( and ain't nobody got time for that.)

[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] SimonTALM:
I've searched through the forums but can't find anyone with a similar issue so here goes...

I want to use my bluetooth connection to ActiveSync and use the pass through to the internet to use MSN Messenger but every time I try the XDA II wants to connect via GPRS.

I can access the internet through the pass through so I know it works I just can't use the pass through to get MSN working.

I've also tried using the USB link but again the XDA II wants to connect via GPRS, this leads me to believe that either it isn't impossible or there is a setting somewhere that I need to alter (but can't find) :?

Can anyone help?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Codenix:
Hello,

I can't tell you why yours isn't working, but I can assure you it CAN be done - Mine works, and I haven't had to change anything.

I'm using a proxy server, not that this should matter. Theoretically, if you can browse the net from the XDA via ActiveSync (USB or Bluetooth, either really), then Messenger should connect too.

Are you able to connect using messenger on the PC (not the XDA through the PC)? I'd start by confirming that you can run Messenger from the PC on your network, in case there's a firewall on your network which is blocking the Messenger Ports.

This article here details what ports must be available from behind a firewall.

http://asia.cnet.com/itmanager/tech/0,39006407,39092525-2,00.htm

Hope that helps.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] SimonTALM:
Thanks for your reply.

I can happily run MSN Messenger on the PC without any problems (it is not usually connected to an LAN.

I did think it might be something to do with my software firewall. I have both the standard windows one (with XP Pro) running and Norton Personal Firewall 2003. So I tried stopping Norton and I still couldn't get Messengar to work on the XDA II, admitedly I forgot to stop the windows firewall as well, although I doubt that's the issue having read the first page of the link you posted, it appears that the standard IM messages will be unlikely to be stopped by a firewall as it just "rides on the TCP connection" and is infact using HTTP.

This leads me more to think that there is a setting somewhere either XDA II side or PC Activesync side (v 3.7 btw) that's causing the problem. Either that or the mobile MSN Messenger uses a different type of comms from the desktop version and uses a different port number, most unlikely?.

Any one any clues? I am starting to get very confused :?

P.S. - I've also tried a trial copy of IM+ to see if this would fix the problem but unfortunately I still can't use the MSN Messenger serivces through Activesync Pass Through.

hi, I ran a mod to have the lockring on the left side of the screen. Now I want to have it back in the middle. Is there a mod,how do I do it?
[HTC Desire S] uarepeople:
Did you make a backup before running the mod? If so then just restore it. If not then search the forums to make sure your question hasn't already been answered. If you can't find a solution then you're going to need to do a backup, then wipe and flash your ROM again, then restore your data by doing an advanced restore in your recovery. And that should bring things back to normal.

[Nook Touch General] Goggles2114:
Used NookManager and the plugin to get Google's app market installed (wierd it shows up as a phone rather than a tablet but meh.) I'd like to think I'm technically inclined/not scared of the command line. However other than install a few apps I haven't done all that much (well OK I made a backup of the pre-rooted state since. well. Duh.)

I keep seeing things like resizing the partition. Loading diffrent managers, etc etc but the instructions assume you used Noogi

Also speaking of NookManager. How do I change what the defaults are after selecting them (like say I want ot use coolreader instead of the default nook library.) I know just enough to know if things mess up it could get in serious brick territory (though having a backup sounds like it'd make that something ofa non-issue. Load nook manager and hit restore.)

I know nothing of ADB. That's probably a liability if I want ot do much beyond what I already have.
[Galaxy S III General] Ishan Sardar:
I was just wondering why the i9300 has wayy more mods/tweaks/custom roms/overall development than the i9305? is this normally because more people/devs own the i9300? or is there any other reasons? I mean with the extra 1GB ram doesn't the i9305 has more flexibility and potential for development?? I'm not saying this because I own the i9305, It just I read somewhere that samsung isn't releasing the code or something for i9305 or something like that (Again, I'm not sure what exactly did I read and I cud be wrong). I mean if there are any codes wudn't both i9300 and i9305 be the same?

Thank You
[Galaxy S III General] zelendel:
Most likely it is that few own that device. And no they are not the same. 2 Different chips all together.

hmm...I just hope more dev get i9305 and we few people get more development :D anyway the only difference on those handset that I see is the LTE and 1 extra GB of ram on i9305. is there any other??
[Galaxy S III General] zelendel:
Hmm well seems they have the same chip, i was mistaken. I dont think many devs will be getting the device as alot are already leaving and most of the big devs like the CM team are leaving samsung devices all together.
[Galaxy S III General] Ishan Sardar:
omg really? I just got the s3...why r they leaving? is the handset bad or something?
[Galaxy S III General] zelendel:
No they are moving to other devices that dont have the chip and leaving samsung all together. It is ok if you like stock based roms I guess but anyone interested in AOSP based development the device sucks. I am even selling mine for a nexus.
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Sad to see you go, zelendel! :p
[Galaxy S III General] zelendel:

If I could get myself a Nexus 4 right now, I'd be happier than the happiest kid on earth but unfortunately I'm poor and have to stick with this one for a few more months. When I get some money, I think I'll get a Z, a One or an N4.

I don't understand what's wrong with this chip? I mean why doesn't it supports AOSP based development? I can get the nexus 4 now but planning to get the s4 (which will be the same as s3 i guess? less development?) and I love custom roms and stuff...damn I shud've asked a few devs before I got the s3. All i knew was that it woz the most popular handset of 2012 and that's why I bought it, thinking more people will buy this and it will get a lot of development. :(
[Galaxy S III General] zelendel:
What is popular with average people is seldom popular with developers. The issue with the chip is Samsung refuses to release proper documentation for the chip even after they said they would. Without it developers can't do alot.

Wayne Tech S-III
[Galaxy S III General] Ishan Sardar:
ok that's it I'm gonna sue samsung for not keeping their word. Burn in hell samsung, you made a great device but you refuse to make it greater. Give devs all the documents they need :mad:

um curious what type of documentation are they? I mean are they some kind of code? or just official papers? what? I mean if they are not like source code, something that dev needs to work then devs doesn't need any documentation, they can just do whatever they want right? unless of course as I said they are like source codes for the chip. you need the original to modify it. If you have any idea please do share.
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
It's the source codes and documentation for the system-on-a-chip exynos 4 series. The documentation is more of a guidance of what the exynos 4 structure is like.

Samsung are of course not obliged to release these sources or documentation, they only have to release what's licensed with GNU GPL, the kernel for instance. However, they openly said they would help developers out before the end of 2012. Of course nothing happened.

I've tried to locate that tweet, but they've shamefully enough removed it.
