[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mypsycheisamess:
I have an sgh-i897 that will not charge. I've look all over the internet and I can't find anyone who has fixed the issue. The usb port doesn't look physically broken under magnifying glass. I was wondering if there is a charging 'fuse' on the main board? I can't find any images for this, I know some phones have these and they can be soldered to make the phone charge again.
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 4-2ndtwin:
I recommend ya contact mobiletechvideos.com

They would be able to answer ur question.

I have cooked T-Mobile ROM 4.01.00 and 4.01.16 both of these make pocket pc turn on everytime.Also SMS when sent goes to Outbox or in drafts.

Can anyone help me to slove this problems or better ROM
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bamse:
Use the AT&T 30.09 ROM.

Although there is an issue with volume (search for attenuation on this site) I definitely prefer it to the T-Mobile ROM which made my device turn on at random times as well.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
nothing wrong with 4.01.00 .. most of these 'turn on' issues are related to either scheduled Outlook refreshing ... or weak phone signal which will turn on the device to gain it back
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bamse:
It's definitely not acceptable with a device that turns itself on in the pocket and starts draining battery and accepting input on the screen.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
it's not advicable also to keep such fragile device in your pocket ... even tho it's called "pocket" PC :lol:
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bamse:
I use it instead of a phone, and as I would normally keep my phone in my pocket that's also where I keep my Qtek. It has been there for the last 18 months or so without taking any major damage. I have a screen protector, but that's about it.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Joe_PDA:
I think you have a bigger problem than damaging your phone.

After 18 months, isn't it time you changed your pants!? :P
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bamse:
Ok, it hasn't been in the same pocket continously for 18 months. And I usually put it in my jacket rather than in my trousers.

What I wanted to say was that I treat it more or less the same way as I would treat a normal mobile phone.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
but you see, I believe normal phones are better built than this fragile device ... just look to the the propability of having a broken screen out of the simplest bending force ... or, how many times did you drop your Nokia to find it's still working ????

Just be careful :)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] bamse:
Well, I've dropped my Qtek a few times as well. I'll admit it has not been as frequent as with the old Nokia 8210. But I haven't had to get a new display unit for the Qtek which I had to do for the Nokia.

I try to go easy on the connectors and not to sit on it with all my weight. That seems to be enough carefulness for it to last for at least a couple of years. The only visible damage is a few dents and that the paint has started to wear off at certain spots.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] mushtash:
T-Mobile ROM 4.01.00 and 16 are working well except AT&T ROM A30.09 having sound problem.I-Mate ROM 1.66 or other ROMs can be installed in XDA 1.

Wirless modem is not available,where can i find?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
That's my first time to know that!! ... is it the same ROM image specs ?? ... Have you tried it yourself ? ... normal .nbf file ?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Thespus2002:
Biso, you said it works well for you. What about the SMS problem? I just got 16 and when I try to send SMS they go to outbox or drafts, only to tell me later that the message could not be sent. Any help would be appreciated.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
I'm sorry not to be aware of such problem on 4.01.xx ROMs.

Have you checked the SMS center number ?

start, settings, phone, services, Voice mail and SMS, service center
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Thespus2002:
Thanks,

For some reason, when I installed the TMO ROM, the SMS Service Center was wrong, and I had to add a + to it. Now the ROM works great. I really like the dual volume controls. Thanks!!!!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jpcsilva:
Hello,

I am having some problems with my battery life, this week i was watching a movie on my nexus 7 while it was charging.... when i checked my battery it was almost over. That was strange so i kept checking it until i saw the battery was going down while my device was charging. Well I don't know what's happening but, i don't think That's normal. Can I have some advice?

thank you.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] najaboy:
The screen draws a lot of power, especially if on full brightness. As such, there are scenarios when it is to be expected that your tablet is going to consume more power than a charger provides and the battery is going to have to make up for the difference. This is especially true if using a lower amperage charger.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MFighter:
which charger did you use?

I have experienced very slow charging when not using the supplied usb charger.

WITH the supplied charger however it should be able to charge the battery while watching a movie.... even though when you are watching a movie you might just be drawing maximum power, since it might have to decode it + as the poster before mentioned, full screen brightness...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jpcsilva:
all stock

I am using the stock charger from asus + a usb cable to extend..

I had some problems uninstalling busybox, and i really don't know if this might be the problem.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxxo:
I had problems with a USB extension before,(with male and female connections) if that's what you mean use a AC extension lead
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jpcsilva:
yes

Yes using a male/female usb. Gonna test see if that is the problem.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] butler0607:
I had this problem running SlimROM on my nexus 7. Swapped it for Sentinel ROM and instantly saw my battery increasing when plugged in no matter what I was doing on the device or which charger/cable I used. General performance increased too!

update 3-5-2013: the developer Cofface himself is now in XDA and posted a new verison of recovery HERE!

* All credit goes to Chinese developer Cofface *

GOOD NEWS!

This should be the easiest way to root the i9500 (yes, the so called 8-core one) by now.

Tested on FW I9500ZCUAMDG and should be working on others.

Recovery Feature:

1. Based on CWM 6.0.3.1 (Thanks CM Team!)

2. ROOT your phone

Just download the recovery and unzip it, flash the cofface_I9500_cwm_recovery_en_new.tar as PDA in Odin.

Then turn off the phone and enter recovery by pressing Vol Up+Home+Power keys, and select ROOT YOUR PHONE, reboot, DONE.

Download: Hotfile Dropbox

update: Some Russian FW users reported this will not work, i've inform the developer Cofface and will update later if he fixed this. And here is a way to root Russian FW.

update2: I've talked to Cofface and he is on vacation now but if you need further helps, feel free to contact with him via Gtalk: cofface@gmail.com

update3: Here is a video tutorial by ashwin123, thanks!

So are you able to get titanium backup to work now? This root is full root right? No catch anywhere?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] fsw23:
Hi !!!

Good news...

But i tried, and it doesn't work.

After reboot, i see that SuperSU is installed, but it is not working. Impossible to update the binaries, and no "root applications" working.

Was a good try ;)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Tutsumi:
You, good sir, probably did something wrong. Mine's working just fine with Titanium Backup Pro, rooted.

Gotta try it now. Will post back the results. :)
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] fsw23:
About mine, i pushed CWM with odin, then did a reboot, clicked the "root" option, and did a reboot.That's it :)

BUT, my i9500 has the russian firmware, wich is : Russia - 2013 April - 4.2.2 - I9500XXUAMDK - I9500SERAMDK

It may be the "problem"..!?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] twisted_mind:
Yeah just did the process..... Unable to get my root apps to work... i have a feeling it has to do with the firmware. Mine is also the russian fw.... Gotta flash the chinese one and then see..
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] Tutsumi:
Perhaps? Perhaps give it another shot using Odin which is in the ZIP, be USB debugged, and set not as a camera?
[Galaxy S 4 i9500 Android Development] GSeeker:

Just installed the Chinese rom that's available on sam mobile.

Decided to nuke everything and roll back to the russian rom :(
