[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
That is a myth and not true. How would you get "better" charging?

The only difference that makes, is that it charges a

little

faster, since its not using any power when its off. So for example, you are gaining 70% charge for every hour of charging, but losing 4% if the phone is on. But if you are going to leave it on the charger overnight anyway, it doesn't matter.

You are wasting your time and annoying yourself by turning the phone off/on every night.

If you want to maximize long term battery life, the best habits are to charge often, avoid full cycles, and actually not leave it on the charger overnight. Although I don't follow that myself, and charge overnight also.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] chrisb906:
As long as the hold power down to boot phone while off while charging doesn't hurt the device, then I will not worry about it. Thanks for your time guys
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] soralz:
Guys, I have the same problem with my HOX+. But then I am pretty sure it has a flat battery so it won't turn on though. Has to press a few times. And I am running on CM11 Nightlies, seems like it won't charge while the phone is off… Is that normal?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Master Rhal:
Could be battery

maybe battery issue, but not necessarily a dead one... Just cleared this with my wife's HTC One by connecting to power. Once I got into the phone, all was good, battery roughly 35%
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] boomking:
Same thing happening to me...at this moment

I am at 80% battery and it is currently doing this....blinking the lights for back and home...black screen - won't do anything. It happens at least 4-5 times a week too. About to get upgrade at work to new phone but if I replace this one I can't get upgrade so....dealing with it...but it is ANNOYING!!
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] shsaifee:
Hi,

I am having issues with my power button lately :( Hope to get some help...

When the phone is on, and I need to wake up the screen, I can't do that. I have two options here...

1.

adb shell input keyevent 26

This will toggle the screen and wake it up if it is sleeping and vice versa.

2.

Long press the power button (approximately 12 seconds) and it shuts down the device. And then another long press (4 seconds) to power it on.

This is causing a lot of problems. I even flashed the CM12.1 nightly thinking if that is a problem with the ROM, but that does not help either. I also see that sometimes, the phone does not charge even though it is plugged in the charger/USB to the laptop...

What did I tried?

I had opened the device, removed the battery from the phone, connected that back and that worked for a day (power button worked for waking up and sleeping the device) but today again I am at the same state as described above...

Can someone please help?

Regards

Saabir
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] shsaifee:
Update:

I ripped open my device yesterday and removed the power button. Its a tiny small round steel thing just below a glue tape. I could see some rust creep in, so took some thinner and cleaned that with an ear-cleaning-bud :)

Fixed that again and used some glue tape on top to hold that in place. Powered on the device and checked. It started working :)

So happy.....

But....

It's same again today :( the power button does not wakes up the screen... :(

I have installed an app called Power button by Torcelite

It works but is buggy.

Prior to that I had installed DTSO: Double Tap Screen On Off but this consumed a hell lot of power so uninstalled that...

Is there a diagnostic app which can tell what is the current state of the complete hardware of the phone?

Appreciate your help.

Regards

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linbetwin:
My Note 2 used to work fine on 4.1.1 and 4.1.2, stock and unrooted.

Then I rooted and flashed a 4.2.2 ROM (I think this ROM was banned from xda, so I'm not going to mention its name). It ran fine on this ROM, except for some hiccups inevitable for a custom ROM. I even upgraded this ROM a couple of times with no issues.

Then I made a stupid mistake. Before upgrading my 4.2.2 ROM again, I decided to factory reset, wipe cache, dalvik, and "Clean to install new system" in PhilZ Touch CWM. I then flashed the ROM and ended up with a boot loop. So I used Odin to flash the latest stock ROM for my country and operator.

Then the freezing started. Sometimes also reboots, but mostly freezing.

There is no pattern to it, it freezes when I'm on the lockscreen, opening an app, swiping through homescreens, using maps, taking photos...

Sometimes it freezes ten times a day, some days it doesn't freeze at all.

I have done multiple factory resets, I have reflashed the stock ROM, rerooted and flashed the 4.2.2 ROM again to no avail. It's only a matter of hours before it freezes again, even with no extra apps installed.

eMMC check says I have the insane chip, but it passes the sector test and Dummy File Generator didn't freeze my phone either.

What do you think it could be? Could this be early symptoms of SDS?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linbetwin:
Nobody has any idea?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Try going back to 4.1.1 and see if the problem is solved do this with full wipe there are many others also havng similar issue in 4.1.2 may be its a bug on 4.1.2/LJ2/LL4/LL7
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linbetwin:
I wouldn't want to go back and risk SDS. I have the insane chip.

What if I flash a DMC3 LK7 ROM?

I am on DMB2 LK4 right now and I read somewhere that DMB6 fixes this issue, so it should also be fixed in DMC3, right ?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Well it should fix as it looks latest version however u give it a try taking a nandroid backup
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linbetwin:
I don't need to be rooted to flash a different stock ROM, right ?

I'm not going to do a nandroid backup because I've just reflashed this stock ROM yesterday and I barely have any data worth saving.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] linbetwin:
I seem to have solved the freezing with the DMC3 LK7 ROM. No more freezes as of yet.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HS™:
Yes using odin u can just flash it

Hi I,m hoping someone can help me on here , I tried to root my phone a couple of weeks ago I successfully unlocked the bootloader but could not root for some reason, then i recieved a settings update from orange UK in the middle of the night , next morning the phone won't turn on at all not even to the boot screen , I sent it off to orange to be repaired and because I unlocked it they won;t repair it however they did manage to get to the boot screen but won't tell me how , they have returned the phone to me and its still the same, so any ideas what I can do now , thanks in advance
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Try factory reset and see whether the phone boots up or not! if not then post the result of the following command here:

fastboot getvar version-main

You can do two things now: Go full stock or flash a custom ROM...
[HTC One X] milo0773:
Thanks for reply i have tried holding power/volume button but nothing happens still a blank screen

I am using a linux pc but have access to windows
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Hold down the power button + vol down button together until you get to the bootloader...(white screen with 3 android figures at the bottom)...

Keep it pressed together and make sure you didn't release any of the button...

If it still doesn't show up then connect it to your wall charger and let it charge for an hour or so and then try to do it!
[HTC One X] milo0773:
Hi thanks again for quick reply but Ive tried this several times and its been on charge for about 3 hours and still black screen
[HTC One X] itais:
Hi,

I have seen videos from MobileTechVideos.com how they unbrick cell phones, I think they can help you with you're OneX :)

Hope this helps :rolleyes: :)

Itai.
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
So you mean to say that the phone is completely dead?

No LED, no screen, no vibration?? Connect it to your PC... does windows recognize the device??

Let the device charge fully .... keep it for 5-6 hours continuously...
[HTC One X] milo0773:
hi yes its fully charged but nothing the led flashes for about a minute but no vibration , when you connect to windows it sees the phone and tries to load the driver "qhsusb_dload" but then says it won't install , so I'm at a loss
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
Hmm... So no screen response whatsoever?? Usually in such cases, charging the device fully with a wall charger fixes it...

If you are still under warranty, try sending it to HTC or your carrier...

Just try one last time to hold the power button and volume down button for as long as possible to see whether bootloader shows up or not :rolleyes:
[HTC One X] milo0773:
Thanks for quick reply still nothing ,I did send to my carrier and they said because I tried to root it it invalidated my warranty :( but somehow they managed to get to the bootloader they sent me a pic , but they wont tell me how they did it maybe they used a phone repair box thing not sure what they are called
[HTC One X] vin4yak:
That's great news! If your phone can get into bootloader, you can might be able to go to fastboot USB.. which means you can flash a recovery and hence flash a custom rom or go full stock! :D
[HTC One X] milo0773:
thanks again for reply but I can't get into bootloader the repair centre did manage too but I can't

Is there a kext for fast charging for Android on Mac OSX?

Like for iPad, they get extra operating current 1600mA, so with the original 500mA the iPad is charging by 2.1A, right from the USB port. Even Blackberry Z10 gets the same treatment!

Can we do a OSX-side kext mod for Android to specify the extra operating current, such that Android charge faster on Mac? As most devices can take at least 1A nowadays.

I am new to kext so I hope to learn from you guys! Where can I begin with?

Are Android Composite loaded by /System/Library/Extensions/IOUSBFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOUSBCompositeDriver.kext ?

How can I locate and modify the field for extra operating current?

I hope to build the kext mod and, in the future, to build a small utility app for users to specify the extra operating current for Android.

PS: My first thread on XDA! Thank you for all the great hacks throughout the years!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xartic12:
I do know most macs have a limited powered usb port of 500mA,well at least the notebooks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JohnnyG_69:
Not exactly...

500mA is the standard, as outlined in the USB 2.0 specs, however a lot of motherboards, including the iMacs and MacBook Pros, can deliver higher amperage for charging. The Macs have been able to output 2.1A for the past couple of years. The problem is that the Mac won't put out more than 500mA unless an authorized iOS device is plugged in and negotiates higher output with the Mac.

---------- Post added at 02:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

Hi Stanley,

I was curious if you were successful at modifying a KEXT to instruct the Mac to enable the extra capacity available to the USB port for charging non-Apple devices? I have a Motorola Xyboard, with a 7000mAh battery, and it takes forever to charge it at 500mA. It would be great to be able to utilize the full 2.1A available from the 2011 MBP.

If there is anything I can do to assist, please let me know. I'd love to get this to work. Either through a software hack or through a cable that tricks the Mac into thinking you have pugged-in an iPad.

Cheers!

I have a brand new 8GB Nexus 4 running Stock Android 4.2.2 with Mediaserver battery drain issues. I started noticing it about 3 days after I got the device last week. I did a complete factory reset, formatted user data partition/cache/dalvik cache and even reinstalled 4.2.2 and I still get the MediaServer battery drain. I don't have any music or pictures on the phone and I only have a handful of apps installed. I have disabled Google Currents Sync and Music Sync as I don't use either one of those. I have nothing on the "SDCARD", no pictures, music, nothing. I sitll see the battery drain though at a rate of about 10-15% per hour.

The kernel is the "Heart" of the ROM" and without the kernel the ROM wouldn't boot

so If after flashing the Kernel BE 1.2 from recovery,the ROM booted fine then I must say that kernel got flashed successfully

And you can make sure if the Kernel got flashed successfully by going to settings>about phone and then by checking kernel information(version)

Not really relevant to the Mako specifically, but anyone know if voice-only calls on Google Hangouts default to the "ear speaker" when connected? On GTalk they would always default to speakerphone and I'd have to manually set it to "use handset earpiece." On Gingerbread phones there isn't even an option to set it to "use handset earpiece."
