[Java for Android App Development] fastlane99:
I have a VERY cheap tablet Android (Softwiner Evb). I want to develop an app on it which interfaces to a USB device on a microprocessor (PIC 32).

The Android ADB works fine over USB, but if I try to develop something which "talks" to the same port at the same time, is that even possible?

If so, is anyone in the UK available to help me out to get started? Cash available, obviously. I don't have a problem with the PIC stuff etc, only with the Android dev, I'm using Android Studio but I have Visual Studio and loads of other platforms if I need them.

Thanks in advance.

I plugged in my razr before I went to bed. I've been using a HTC plug and cable for the last few months no problems. Woke up this morning and battery was at 5% and then the phone died completely soon after. I plugged it in using my original motorola plug and cable. The dual core screen came up and then the battery level said 0% and it looked like it was charging. It died again after about half an hour. Now nothing will get the phone going. I also tried the hard reset (Power and volume down). The phone is unrooted and hadn't been updated to Jellybean yet.

Any ideas what I can try?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ThrustLikeAboss:
razzrrrr

Try using the correct charger and charge it for about an hour, thats the first thing I would try. How long is the htc cable you're using because the longer the cable the slower the charge.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cathain:
I have tried multiple different chargers with no joy. I think the problem is with the connection. When I plug a charger in the white charging light flashes briefly for a second. I checked the connection for dust and it looks clear?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] adamivie:
Try Booting into bp tool or hw diag (hold vol up and vol down then press power should see black screen with white text vol down moves cursor vol IP selects) the phone should charge if left in one of these modes (if you can even make it this far without the bat dying that is). if that don't work could try disassembling then charging the battery directly (never tried this its only an idea try at you own risk)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
My xt910 razr maxx has suffered exactly the same fate overnight. Worked fine yesterday now it's dead with the only sign of life from the white led when attaching the moto usb charger. Phone wasn't run flat prior to this. Baffling
[Motorola Droid RAZR] cathain:
I don't even get the white light when I plug mine in any more! Have you tried the suggestions above?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Yes I have and no button combination produces as much as a glimmer. I've had the back off and checked the battery for charge, it shows 4.3 volts so it's not that. Something has failed catastrophically I fear.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Xrunner87:
Check the battery's cable that connects to your phone.If that cable was broke,you can just see the battery level but without charging it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
I've read around this a little now and have invested £3 in a Motorola Factory Cable of fleabay which hopefully will resolve the issue. Due to be delivered next week so I'll keep you posted......
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Well got the factory cable and tried it holding the vol down button. Nothing. Took the back off the phone and checked the voltage of the battery 2.75v. Removed the battery and tried the factory cable with vol down. Still nothing. Reinstalled battery and left charging off a pc overnight, this morning it had risen to 2.83v. Starting to think that this phone has had it
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Cut the end off a micro usb cable, exposed the wires and connected the red and black to the battery terminals then plugged it into the moto wall wart. Left it until fully charged....volt meter read 5.1v, the output of the charger. Disconnected and checked charge, 4.2v out of the battery.

still dead. Nothing. No red moto screen, no recovery nothing. Something else must be amiss. All I get is a brief white led flash when I plug in the standard charger cable.

anyone have any ideas where to go from here other than the skip?!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Just resurrecting this thread in the hope someone has found a solution....

I still have a brick which is unresponsive to two factory cables plugged into my PC with and without the battery in.

Trouble is I've got pictures on there I'd like to recover if possible which causes me to persist with this troublesome device!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LuckiestNut419:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2431617

I access the boot menu by holding both vol up and down, and pressing the power button (hold for ~2 seconds, and release the power button, while still holding vol +/-. Volume down will only send you to APFastboot. Check out the post, I encountered the same problem. The final method I tried was the winner. Good luck, and let me know if you have any questions.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Thanks for that, I'll certainly give it ago when I get a free hour one evening this week. I am concerned though that the factory cable doesn't work, I was under the impression that the phone should at least respond to its connection in some way - it doesn't even when vol-is depressed when connecting to pc.

The only response I get from the phone is a brief flash of the white led as the usb cable (factory or charging) is connected to it.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LuckiestNut419:
That indicates that there isn't any power management remaining on the phone, and the battery is pretty weak. You'll need to get the battery charged up manually. After you flash with the last method I used, you should be able to reconnect the battery and charge the phone all the way up before booting. Sounds like you're having the exact same problem I did.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Really , Really wanted this to work but it doesn't look promising.

Made the USB charge cable as described (white and black twisted together to -ve, red on its own to +ve). Battery removed from phone, usb on charge cable connected to PC.

5 Volts found at the battery connection terminals. Original Moto Data cable connected to phone then PC. White LED flashed on for slightly longer than before then off. No response from phone - nothing on the screen or vibration with or without any combination of Vol- and vol+.

Battery refitted and charge lead attached to terminals as above to charge from PC. Now reading 4V across the terminals charge lead plugged in, 3.84V cable unplugged so presumed charged.

Still no response other than the brief white LED from the phone with either the Data or Factory cables and Vol-(or any other Vol configurations).

Any ideas???
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LuckiestNut419:
I assume you tried pressing and holding all the buttons, for five or ten seconds, or even a little longer, to try a full reboot. Beyond that, I wish I could help more. I'm slap out of ideas. This was the last step for me (as the solution usually is). The main board might have had it, though I don't have a clue why.

I'm thinking dead mobo too. When it died it did so overnight without provocation - no flashing or tinkering, it was left on the kitchen sideboard and found dead in the morning. oh well I've tried. many thanks for your help:good:
[Motorola Droid RAZR] LuckiestNut419:
Glad to try and help. I guess it's time to move on to the next device! Let us know if the phone sporadically decides to work, or you figure out a solution!

This might work

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfT2Bejkcdk&feature=youtube_gdata_player

I am not sure if you already watched this video, its for droid razr maxx, charging a dead battery and works perfectly for droid razr too.

My droid razr was exactly in same condition, white light and no charging, did not power up, completely dead.

I popped open the back case, connected the modified usb cable wires to the positive (Red wire) and negative (black wire) ends of the battery and let it charge (stay connected) for one hour. Then i pressed vol up+ vol down + power button. And my phone switched on.

If only your battery is dead, this should work.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rockykoston:
Here are a couple of pictures, how i charged my dead battery.

I hope its useful for you :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Thanks for that but I did try that and unfortunately it didn't work. battery is fully charged.

Prior to dying the phone had a history of random freezing and reboots and I'm minded to think that whatever caused that issue is responsible for its death. Regardless of the battery condition, it should have responded to a factory cable but sadly didn't.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] rockykoston:
Ok well, maybe you have a different issue then. My droid only restarts if I accidentally plug in the charger first (to the wall socket) and then plug it in my cellphone. This problem has existed for over a year now but my phone never died.

But finally it caused the battery to drop all charge two days ago and I had to go through this manual charging.

So, the only solution I found to my problem is to plug in the USB to my phone first and then into the wall socket. I hope you can go for the Nexus 5, if you want :)

Gudluck mate.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jdjdj2001:
Nexus 5 would be nice but to be honest I now have a galaxy S3 running cyanogenmod 10.2 which does all I want and carries all my music on a 64Gb sd all couldn't really justify the memory loss!

I have the phone one with similiar problem but the phone work fine now

the propbem : can't charge with wall or all type wall charger :crying: USB charger form PC etc.... and the phone can't to turn on (brick) i have to cek batt voltage by multimeter the voltage 4.02v (open the batt screw) but the phone can't bootup

solution : jumper with wires(+/- screw batt and don't replace the batt connector) on full charge other battery(i'm use s4 clone batt) + to + (-) to(-) and then push power button'if the phone bootup release the wires and turn off the phone ... plug charge usb port and charge the phone for 3h :good:

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Avalun:
hello,

I flashed cm 10.1 some days ago, it works pretty fine, one thing I found out,

is that the bluetooth signal strengh seems worse then as I had in the Stock Rom.

I have a LiveView Device I got working pretty good with Stock 4.1.2, in CM 10.1 I get

often disconnects and it struggles on the reconnects too.

Is there a way to increase the power of the bluetooth signal about the same level as in stock?

cheers Avalun
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Aerowinder:
CM has had bluetooth issues for as long as I can remember. There isn't much you can do, except not use it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] PKFR4Life:
Flashing Radios Should Affect Bluetooth

Correct me if I'm wrong anyone but can't you find alternative radios to flash? This would affect WiFi, basic cellular reception/call quality, and Bluetooth. That's what I've read in multiple threads on here.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Avalun:
Flashing a Radio does affect bluetooth too? Nice, I thought that is only for GSM stuff.

I got my S3 from T-Mobile in Austria(EU), so is the Hardware compatible with the Radio from T-Mobile in the USA?

I read some threads, where people destroyed their phones because, they flashed them with incompatible radios, so I am a bit afraid of that :(

Edit:

Oh I see i am in the wrong board, T Mobile in Austria ships the GT-I9300 and USA the T-999.

Which troll ships different chipsets of the same device in the same company :o
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I couldn't say for sure if flashing the modems would have any affect on BT. Itd make sense, but it being such a short range tech anyway, I doubt it'd make any noticeable difference.

I doubt it'd have any affect at all on any CM related BT problems. Every modem so far has worked fine for it on stock, so it would more likely be a purely rom issue.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Avalun:
Okay I see, is that only a CM issue, or does that occur with all 4.2.X Roms? Perhaps the radio doesn't work so well with 4.2?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
All 4.2 roms are cm/aosp based as far as I'm aware.

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkd28:
THIS BUG CAN DO HARM TO YOUR BATTERY! BECAUSE YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHEN THE BATTERY DRAINS!

As we all may encounter the battery bug after upgrading to .423 fw. When one restarts his phone, he has chances that the battery level of the phone rises (e.g., I turned off mine just now at 26% and turned it on showing 51%). This has been confirmed by many users in the forum, so I believe it is a firmware level bug of 4.2.2.

Is there any one willing to pay some time on fixing it? Coz this is a quite crucial bug for us, we dont know when will our phones automatically turn off! Thanks in advance;)

I believe its not a caliboration thing coz we also upgrade or wipe our devices before, and no such thing happened. I think its a firmware or kernel level bug. Does anyone who flashes a custom kernel also encounter the same problem?

It seems that Spanish FW is free from this bug.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=43261281

plz report your rom or base FW in the reply. Thanks.:D

[NEW EDIT]

It seems that I fix the bug. The battery jumps when the phone restarts, so I think there is something during boot which causes the issue. I delete the XZDualRecovery, and test the phone several times, and its fine!

Deleting XZDualRecovery might be a temporary fix, so you can choose what to do:)

[NEW EDIT 2]

someone reports that they dont encounter the bug and believes that its the calibration thing. i declare again that i DID the calibration and the issue was still there. for me, at least, deleting XZDualRecovery fixes the bug. plz report more details in the reply, like fw, root or not, recoveries. Thank you:)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gm007:
I don't think there is a bug here.

Never happened to me,cause i did full wipe while flashing.

Maybe it happens only for users that didn't wiped everything.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkd28:
Actually I did:confused:
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] primularosea:
and here I thought it only happen to me, I even tried installing battery calibration app lol

so yeah, +1 in this though I think this is happen in kernel level? which means us with lock bootloader can't use the fix... CMIIW though
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkd28:
There is no kernel for 4.2.2. DoomKernel supports fw before 423. Correct me if Im wrong. Also in LB and know not much about custom kernels.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] amintox:
yes this issue exist. it happened to me when i updated to this new 4.2.2 also i have black dots in camera and the back cover of my xperia z is not correctly glued. i hate sony right now
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkd28:
yes its kinda anoying. but i believe its software level problem except the unglued issue:)

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoberM:

[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilanopro:
I have the exact same problem, went from 26% to 52% after reboot... Is this bug bad for our battery? If so, maybe I'm flashing back to 4.1.2.

1)First I drained the battery fully until mobile gets switched off

2)Then I left the mobile to cool off for half an hour

3)After that I charged the battery upto 100%

4)Following this I switched on the Mobile and did the battery calibration by using 'Battery Calibration' app

5)Again I fully drained the battery and charged it again to 100%

Now the battery life seems good. I checked this by using WiFi whole night....battery lasted overs 12hrs

Battery Bug

Just updated my Xperia Z today with a full data wipe from 4.1 to 4.2.2 and I've experienced the same problem from 26% of battery to 52% after reboot.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dilanopro:
Think I'm gonna try this to when I have the time. Phone just went off because the battery is dead, it was showing 14% and all of a sudden 0%.

This is exactly what I concern. I dont know when my phone is going to off, and it could be big trouble when there is no access to the charger.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siezer:
Maybe we just need to recalibrate, drain battery to 0% and fully charge it to 100% while the phone is turned off.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kkd28:
plz give some feedback if it works:)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donottouch:
I experiencing the same issue. 2% to 55% after reboot. wow... 4.2.2 doesn't bring anything for me to consider to keep it. so back to 4.1.2 (.4.3.4)

But one thing for sure (never discharge a lithium ion / polymer battery from full to 0 they don't like it) you could do that with nickel cadmium/ metal hydride batteries ant they really thank for that if you keep doing that you just kill your battery before its due time.
