[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] Shiftlock:
for that price i guess it wouldnt hurt to try it unless it catches fire in your pocket and turns your phone into a smore. i have tried the 3rd party extended batteries and have yet to be amused. if you want more mobile battery life get one of these

http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10831&cs_id=1083110&p_id=9283&seq=1&format=2

and before you balk at the price, monprice is legit and i have been using one for about 6 months and it works great (havent tried on s4 yet). you can get 2-3 charges out of it usually.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] nemesis93:
That will be last option if I can't find a slim extended battery or at least one that doesn't add too much bulk.

Oh and I know about monoprice. I buy my speaker wire from them. Cheap and great quality materials used in everything I've bought from them.

@aeroreg

I'm going through the same thing now. My XDA is dead! Exactly the same problem like yours. Have you sort it out?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
bad RSU can cause the same problem ... do you still able to use the phone part (GSM OK) ?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] awhitlock:
dead XDA

Have seen similar where unit will not charge and battery eventually flat. Was caused by internal miniature fuse being blown insideXDA. Had to jumper it with fine wire soldered across with miniature iron (and steady hand !!!).

This fixed problem. Somewhere on this site is description and pictures by fellow sufferer (late last year if I remember).

Have you by chance tried to use an iPAQ cable to power your XDA ?? this causes this problem for sure.

regards :D
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] variante_ascari:
@awhitlock

Can you post the link of the despriction? I couldn't find it. And no, I didn't use an iPaq cable.

@Biso007

Bad Remote Software Update? I don't think it causes this problem to my XDA as I still think it's more hardware related. Any chance how a bad RSU can cause such problem?

Guys, I tried hard reset and switch on the XDA simultaneously, and immediately there's a screen of four thicked coloured lines, (which is White, Red, Green and Blue) and written "WALLABY Bootloader V5.17" on the white line and "GSM ERROR" on the blue line. Any idea on this? :S

Cheers,

:)
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] Biso007:
RSU = Radio Stack Upgrade

what you got is the boot loader screen ... if you can see "GSM OK" then it's not RSU problem ... most propabley will be h/w or bad battery problem
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] migdalt:
I have also died XDA same way :(

I left my xda to recharge when I came and unplug it it was dead already :(

I tried to change battery, but it doesnt want to work at all. With Old battery when I place it to recharde the red light is flashing for a while then going down.

Do you think it may be repaired by myself ?

The issue is that in Poland I didn't found ANY service from XDA :(

thanks for help

definitely this is broken fuse, small micro fuse right beside the connector pins on the motherboard.
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] variante_ascari:
@Biso007

Thanks for correcting me on the RSU. To be honest, I'm a newbie in PDA, all I know is just use it, charge it, and clean it when it's dirty :|

I thought of changing the battery but what migdalt stated out is worrying me a little bit, I'm afraid after changing the battery, the problem is still there.

@JGUI

Any chance for you to show me how to fix my XDA?

Geez, XDA is problematic! :|
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] azzkikr:
hey guys i have da same problem...XDA is dead and when i put it on the cradle da same red light is seen above!wat maybe the problem....im in pakistan and we dont have ne repair shops here....anyone out dere who can help me out!?

Anyone...?
[MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading] smiley:
Sorry to tell you so

Hi there, I'm really sorry to tell you what Biso has already said, that if you get GSM ERROR in the Bootloader screen so you have killed your XDA by upgrading the RSU :cry:

wish you better luck to find a solution for it soon

Use battery saver pro. Adjust the battery saver meter acc. to ur wish, but remember that battery saving is directly proportional to lagging.

The higher the battery saver level, the more laggy the phone will be. Its ur choice...:)

[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
Okay, this is a weird one. When charging my phone, almost every single time, it will charge up to about 76-83%, and then stop. However, if I unplug it and then plug it back in it will resume charging like normal up to 100%. I mean this is bizarre...is it a battery calibration issue, perhaps?

Edit: Happens on any/every ROM I use.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Murasakiii:
I assume this hasn't been doing it since you bought it?
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
No it hasn't...However, I'm also using the charger from my Galaxy S2 most of the time...could that be it? I'll have to find my LG charger, in order to test.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] iamtha1:
You mean the usb box from ur galaxy s2.... If so each box may have a different output for each phone..... For instance when i use my daughters charger it takes 5 times longer to charge my og than the og charger so that may be ur problem.

Via LG OG running Rootbox 4.2.2
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tuxattack80:
Had the same thing too and as described in the post above it is in fact due to the output. Just compared my old but still kicking s2 and my og charger and the og charger has a much greater output.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DeathmonkeyGTX:
Yeah lgog charger is 5v 1.2a. It's very nice. We also gotta qualcomm technology called quick charge or something like that that enables the battery to charge substantially faster without damaging itself. It's a logic chip in the phone and improved battery chemistry from LG. Asian manufacturers have a huge portfolio of products and are weirdly driven to diversify in all directions. LG has their own chemical company, and that's who makes our pimp batteries. I stuck with HTC for 7 years, but if LG flagship phones continue to have decent development then I'll probably stick with LG for a while. It's cool that they manufactured the entire phone from scratch except the SoC, no other company can really say that besides Samsung. And they're both Korean companies. Btw, south Korea is a great place to vacation.

[AT&T LG Optimus G] TangoXray:
Agree. Actually, when compared to other cables the OEM cable is much thicker.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] Jank4AU:
It looks as though I need to pay attention a bit more. I was using the LG wall charger, however, I wasn't using the right cable. I was using my Samsung cable. The Samsung cable is longer and reaches to where I can charge and play with the phone at night. I'll try the cable it actually came with and see if it continues to pull the same trick. The LG cable is definitely thicker.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tuxattack80:
I totally agree with you on the length of the cable and is why I was also using the s2 charger as well. If you need the extra length you can probably get by using an s3 charger. I steal my girlfriend's s3 charger from time to time just because I want a little more mobility than two feet and it charges the phone just fine with very similar output ratings....... 1.0 amps compared to 1.2 amps of the og charger.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] putsometrebleinit:
I've had something similar happen recently. The phone will either charge extremely fast or extremely slow. I usually charge my phone at about 30% and sometimes it will charge fully in about 90 minutes and others it will take up to 8 hours, with the slowest part being in that 73-87% range you describe. I always use the LG charger and cable because its the only one that I have. I'm running code fire's CFX ROM if that helps anyone out.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
That's some weird stuff. I'm getting good performance right now using the stock cable with a belkin 1A cigarette lighter to USB adapter. But last week I grabbed a cheapo Chinese retractable cable that was in my wife's car and plugged it into the built in USB port in the car (don't know what it's rated output is) and the battery drained VERY fast... Roughly one percent every minute or 2. Freaked me out... Certainly appears to me this phone is temperamental about cables...
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tuxattack80:
yeah had the same probably with a car charger with my og and to think about it my s2 as well, I travel a lot for my job and constantly use gps while traveling and I've found that a lot of those cheapo car chargers you pick up from gas stations may charge the phones while inactive don't really charge them very well while in use. I could watch my battery percent fall while charger on both my s2 and og while using navigation, ended up finding a high output charger at a truck stop with a cord the size of a cb radio lol and havent haven't had any issue with it since. This is with stock and custom rom, even reverted back to stock a couple times to make sure that it wasn't the custom firmware that was causing the issue. Guess the makers of cheap chargers haven't caught up with the big batteries todays smart phones pack, should of hold on to my bag phone charger a little longer lol!!
[AT&T LG Optimus G] dandrumheller:
Agreed. In my case the phone was discharging rapidly while not in use. Screen off. I'm thinking the plug on that cheap cable was shorting a couple pins on the plug..
[AT&T LG Optimus G] tuxattack80:
That's on thing i do miss about having a removable battery though, is the fact that a large part of my job is in very dusty dirty environments ....i.e. steel, aluminum mills and other high temp dusty and dirty as hell places is that i could remove my battery and feel safe while using a little contact cleaner. Now og days i play it safe with air. But either way i don't think that has anything to do with the use of cheap chargers lol. Best bet would be to stick with oem or pay the extra price tag for those high out put chargers that att offer.

The chrome paint had started to chip off on my mates old phone that he was selling so I decided to wrap it with my left over vinyl wrap. All I did is place a big piece of vinyl wrap over the screen, then used a hairdryer to mould it around the corners. I used a blade to cut around the screen and the back of the frame and finally peeled the excess wrap off.

Here are some pics.

Don't know why these came out so blurry.

Sorry I didn't take any progress pictures. Here's a picture to show how I cut the vinyl Dig with your nails first before using a blade to cut.

Or you could buy 4D vinyl wrap which is shiny http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/4D-GLOSS-...6279?pt=UK_Wallpaper&var=&hash=item4d0c035327. If I were to clear coat the vinyl it would be messy and it would start flake off.

[Galaxy S I9000 General] randomherRro:
That looks nice. I have a question: how did you manage to work with the wrap in order to cut it and stick it precisely on the phone? Do you still have the length measurement of it?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Mocket:
The wrap needs to be a little bigger than the front of the phone, I don't have the exact dimensions, sorry.

First I put a big piece of vinyl wrap (large enough to cover the screen and the sides) on the front of the phone.

Then I heated up the wrap so I could stretch it around the corners and the back of the phone (remove battery cover) so I get a wrinkle free finish.

Finally I got a thin blade and cut between the screen and the frame to peel off the excess wrap on the screen and the back of the phone.

Sorry for the late reply. If anyone needs more information just ask, I'd be more than willing to help. : ]

If you haven't seen it: http://www.scroogled.com/ (it's by Microsoft--their name is at the bottom): "When you buy an Android app from the Google app store, they give the app maker your full name, email address and the neighborhood where you live. This occurs without clear warning every single time you buy an app."

App developers: do you actually get the real names of everyone who downloaded your app? If so, that's not that private. :( I don't download these kinds of apps (haha), but does this mean that the developer of Korea Sexy Girl Puzzle could release a list of the real names of everyone who downloaded his/her app? And, what about locations? What is the purpose of knowing the zip code of who downloaded your app? This issue isn't that big (unless you live in a very unpopulated zip code), but I don't see the reasoning.

---

Preferably, if you're an app developer, I'm just curious what exactly you see. But, if you're a non-app-developer, if you have legitimate information, I'd be interested. And not that it matters, but I'm an Android guy. :D This post isn't some Microsoft fanboy trying to start a flame war. Just want to get some facts, as I'm a little hesitant to trust one company's claim about a competitor. :D

OK, this "sharing" is the same sharing done by Amazon, Etsy, and "everyone else on the internet." Developers, like Amazon or Etsy peeps, agree not to share the data. The data is required for financial transactions, apparently. Source: http://techcrunch.com/2013/04/09/mi...ogle-developers-need-to-process-transactions/

Microsoft, apparently, responded with this:

"Google also claims that sharing this information is necessary to process your transaction and maintain your account — that is, to issue refunds, reversals and payment adjustments. But, similar stores — including the Windows Phone Store and Apple’s App store, don’t do this, because it isn’t necessary for an app maker to have your full name, email address and ZIP code to process the initial transaction, issue refunds or handle customer service issues. Google could easily provide more anonymous means to handle these transactions."
