So this is the marvelous problem that arises today..

the battery sensor of my Wave S8500 seems all of a sudden completely gone: it always shows 0%.

I've installed and used CM 0.32 (and previous versions..) and the last FOTA provided from one year (I've never overclocked it, so it cannot be related in any way to overheating problems). Bada firmware is LG1.

Yesterday the phone was working as usual, it was booted in Bada for all the day and before switching it off, battery state in Bada was reporting a charge of 17% (and the battery was discharging normally).

This morning, when I tried to switch on the phone in Android (Call+ Call End) the phone strangely did not boot, so I removed and put the battery and tried to start Bada, and here too nothing happened.

Then I plugged the usb cable and tried to charge it: after some minutes I tried to switch it on in Bada and the phone started but after some seconds it switched off automatically by saying that battery was fully discharged (same happens when I boot to Android, but in this this case Android crashes after it completes the boot and automatically the phone reboots in Bada).

When the phone is plugged in with the charger (whether it is switched on or off) the battery is reported as it is charging normally but the level reported is always 0%.

Does anyone ever had this problem? Is there any possible solutions? the mad thing is that when I switched off the phone yesterday it was working perfectly like new..

PS: I have not other Waves to test battery with them and I have not other batteries to test them with my Wave... and... please do not suggest to simply reflash everything unless you're quite sure it may work, reflashing with a battery sensor that seems to always read 0% does not appear to be a great idea...
[Android Development on Bada] adfree:
Sorry, but this is nearly exact what I would test... :rolleyes: :D

Because the Question is...

A.

Is Battery dead or half dead... after 2 years possible...

B.

Is something dead in handset... = really bad if Hardware damage.

C.

But you are able to use such intrument to check battery...

In German Voltmeter...

+ and - are visible on Battery...

https://www.google.de/search?q=volt...B8XLswb6j4CgBg&ved=0CFQQsAQ&biw=1920&bih=1063

Check battery...

If you are not able to use such Voltmeter... ask friends, neighbars...

Go in shop...

This thing is cheap...

Best Regards

Edit 1.

Digital Multimeter in English... you can check Service Manual from S8500...

Edit 2.

You have to check Volt... in German...

Check battery label, you can read 3,7 V...

Now use Voltmeter proper...

Normal could be 4 Volt... or 3,8... something higher as 3,7...

Empty means not 0... maybe 2 Volt or less...

No idea yet...

Post your measurement, user will tell you, if Hardware or Software related problem...

No joke...

Full seems:

[B]4178 mV[/B]

I can remember, 1 of my Batteries from S8530 was bad...

Charge Cycle or not charged... :eek:

Same S8530 with new Battery now perfect since over 1 year...

So only battery was bad...

But S8530 Hardware NOT damaged.

This strange battery I use for tests...

[Android Development on Bada] guari:
fortunately, now the problems seems solved :victory:

it's weird but after more than an hour plugged in to the DC charger, the battery sensor in the phone is came alive, now it reports 24%, a moment ago it was still at 0%, the charger is extremely hot (more than usual) and the battery is cold (usually it's hotter when charging) but it's charging again and the indicator is working.

thanks [MENTION=1030585]adfree[/MENTION], I tried to read the voltage and ampere with a Multimeter, it reports reasonable values for voltage when the phone says the charge it's 0% (about 3.7V), but I don't know how to read the remaining charge level with it and with this lithium battery (if it's possible)..

probably it's the battery that is going to die...

Edit: another thing I noticed now when rebooting the phone is that it seems to always lose the information about the date and hour set (like when the battery is removed and the End-Call button it's kept pressed for some seconds).
[Android Development on Bada] adfree:
Maybe we could collect also date of Battery and maybe S/N...

Lets start with date. :D

3 batteries of ... I have...

2010.08.12 S/N AA...
2010.11.17 S/N AA...
2010.11.28 S/N TA...
2010.11.20 S/N YA
2010.12.20 S/N YA...

So these 3 from 2010... No idea which is the faulty one...

Forgotten...

But I can use all 3 of them...

Maybe later I will check 4 more... and 1 from S8600 to see date...

Best Regards

Edit 1.

S/N first 2 Letters... and few more batteries from me added...

[Android Development on Bada] JJacek:
I know that this is quite old thread but I have experencied same problems.

I have Samsung Wave, and few months ago problems with battery started. It might be connected with changing to Bada 2.0 but who knows ?

On Bada 1.x the battery was lasting quite long (even 7 days without using it heavily), on Bada 2.0 it was worse (2-3 days). After 2-3 months I noticed that battery isn't charging properly. It charges and then drops. You could charge whole day and it wasn't full.

So I bought a 'new' one (new means not used, but basically it was old, production date 2010.10), and nothing changed.

Is it hardware problem?
[Android Development on Bada] aboyazan78:
Same thing happen with my Wave2 8530

battery stuck on 0% while the charger connected

when plug out the charger the phone shut down ..

the problem i guess was with the battery because the solution that worked is so simple i take the battery out and charge it with external battery charger .. voila

i put it back in the phone and the battery shows 86% and every things now ok .. the battery is now charging in the phone normaly .

One of the things i hate of android is that even with high specs it stills have lags and freezes, most of you probably have been trough this situation, well in this post I'm going to post few apps and tweaks that help me to make my phone fly, also these apps and tweaks improve the battery life, let's start.

TAKE A NANDROID BACKUP PLEASE,YOU ARE THE OWNER OF THE PHONE AND THE RESPONSABLE OF DAMAGES THAT THE PHONE CAN GET.

1.-First of all, u must be on stock rom rooted and with cwm flashed

2.- Go to the settings and do the next things:

+Go to the location settings and unmark the google data

+Go to hour and date and unmark automatic hour and automatic zone

+Go to developer settings and change animations speed at 0,5x or desactivate it,also desactivate force gpu rendering (up to you)

+In developer options, in process select 4 process max

+Go to screen and select 15 or 30 s screen timeout

+In screen setting in soft buttons light selec always desactivated

+When u low on baterry use power save,its works pretty well

3.- Go to the play store and download this apps:

+Startup Cleaner ( Title says everything :p)

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bright.startup2&hl=es_419

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mannybiker:
Hi! I have a Galaxy S4 and I use S-Voice to create Tasks.

Unfortunately on the S4 there is no Task Widget like on other Samsung devices.

I found and apk from another Galaxy (I think the Note 2) that have this widget and I tried to replace the actual S4 SPlannerAppWidget.apk in the system/app with the one I found. Everything seems to work since I have now the task widget, but the calendar widget is a bit different, I think due to the different screen resolution and is not optimized for the use with the S4.

I thought the best way to have both the widget, the new one from the S4 and the task from the Note 2 would be to install both the apk, but this is not possible since they have the same package name. So I tried to change the name by decompiling the Note2 apk with apktool and changing all the references within the smali and res files form SPlannerAppWidget to SPlannerAppWidgetTasks.

Unfortunately this does not seem to work and the new apk I have recompiled don't show up anything one put in the system/app directory.

I have joined my new apk... I know many people are looking for a solution about the task widget and this could be a useful solution if someone with more experience than me in modifying an apk could take a look at it and discover why this do not work.

Many thanks in advance.

Hi,

i just installed LBE privacy guard (on stock 434 FW rooted, unlocked BL). Unfortunately that app decided to go haywire on my phone, sending it into a boot loop.

Stupid enough i didn't make a backup before installing that thing (why would anyone?).

Is there any way to get this thing off the device without razing it completely? I can access TWRP and flash/fastboot.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Use flashtool to reflash a stock 434 ftf. Just don't wipe /data and you shouldn't lose any of your settings/apps. You will have to root again though.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waaahsabi:
I tried that, reflashing the FTF, however the app was still there and it was still autostarting. But in TWRP i found the advanced>file manager and removed the .apk (good that i had TWRP flashed).
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kingvortex:
Oh well. Glad you got it sorted. :)

Just FYI, everywhere I've seen LBE Privacy Guard mentioned there are people complaining that it causes reboot loops on Jelly Bean roms just like you experienced, so I'd give it a miss in future. ;)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dreiundachzig:
Here on XDA there is a translated LBE Security Master. It has some useless stuff but it has still that privacy control.
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Muschmusch:
I had the same problem. delete the apk in the internal memory. look to where you find them. then it boots normally again.

This is for anyone interested in using the stock Japanese keyboard including Japanese handwriting. Using yubimusubi's post from a different thread, I was able to get the Samsung Japanese keypad from the Docomo variant of the Galaxy Note II working on my N7100. Place these files in the appropriate directories of your system folder.

The files I used are as follows:

Working:

Mazec handwriting (!!)

Alphabet keyboard (full-width & half-width)

numbers keyboard

symbols/emoticons

hiragana-Kanji henkan (変換 - allows changing hiragana to kanji)

katakana (full-width & half-width)

Credit for discovering the original files goes to yubimusubi! All this is is my effort to streamline it and pinpoint exactly which files are relevant and which are unnecessary.

Download (51.4 MB) - Not a flashable zip. Use a File Explorer program to place the files in the appropriate directories of your system folder, then restart your device. You must have root access!
[Galaxy Note II General] Crescendo Xenomorph:
But where's the file?
[Galaxy Note II General] shunsai:
Added to first post! Let me know if it works for you!
[Galaxy Note II General] Crescendo Xenomorph:
Thanks a lot ^^

Gonna try and will tell you if its work ^^

One problem: seems for emoji, you have to enable the emoji supported text field.

I have tried once with Google Japanese Keyboard and it unable to input DoCoMo's emoji into text field (like in email).

Is this keyboard able to input emoji (not iOS6 emoji, but DoCoMo/Japan standard emoji)?
[Galaxy Note II General] shunsai:
Sorry. I'm not exactly sure what you mean.

If you mean the emoticons that use actual pictograms, I don't think this keyboard is capable of that.

As far as I know, this keyboard's emoticons are pure ascii characters (ie. (^ ^)d (^O^) \(^_^)/ ) same as the Japanese WNN keyboard.

For me, I haven't had a keyboard yet that has pictogram emoji built in. In my experience, they are built into individual messaging/mail programs as opposed to individual keyboards. If you know otherwise, please let me know.
[Galaxy Note II General] Crescendo Xenomorph:
IT WORKS!!!!! ^^
[Galaxy Note II General] shunsai:
Glad to hear it! よかった！:good:

[Galaxy Note II General] Adrian_sept:
so appreciated to find this thread. Thank you so much. It works! I signed up literally just for your post!

however, kind of sorry to learn that Japanese keyboard is separate. I'd thought that I could easily switch between languages with just a tap. Now still have to go through all the trouble to constantly pull down the notification menu to change keyboards. one more inconvenient thing is that the keyboard doesn't scale down when the phone is set to multiwindow mode. Hope that samsung will make some changes in the future.

Hi

I have just had a really bad thing happen to my XDAIIs :evil:

I disconnected it from the USB Power/Sync cable and it did a hard reset!!!

So Now I have to re-install all my apps etc, which are currently 3000 miles away in UK (I am in USA this week).

Apart from the obvious inconvenience of spending an hour or so getting everything setup as I want it again, wht caused this to happen.

On a side note, what's the "best"backup software to use to help mediate against this happening again.

Cheers
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xanth:
Ouch nasty :-(

I keep hard resetting mine by accidently pushing power button as I push stylus in (just the way I hold it). :-(

I'm using Sprite Backup:

http://www.spritesoftware.com/home.html

Sorry again to hear about this :-(
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] weasel:
thanks for the advice - I'll look at sprite

I have not managed to do a hard reset by pushing the power button, how do you manage to do that?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xanth:
Well when I do a reset, I hold the device with my left hand and the thumb on the left hand side and my fingers on the right/top right.

But then as I go to push the stylus in the hole I always have to tilt it up to find the hole (strangely the microphone won't reset it) and in doing so I automatically move my index finger to the top to stop me pushing the device straight out my hand with the stylus and it always rests on the power button.

As I push the stylus the entire device moves and a little... and voila.

It's obviously just me as never heard anyone else having this "problem", but must say I find it a bit annoying and always have to try and remember to move my finger first!

Hope that made sense?
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] weasel:
I think I figured out what you're doing, but I can not get my BA to hard reset when doing this, it just powers off
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] xanth:
It should do!

If you're pushing power button WHILST pushing the reset hole/button with the stylus that should perform a hard reset (as that's the only way it's supposed to do it - apart from removing battery for 20+ mins!)
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] weasel:
Ahh - I now understand what you're doing to hard reset; I had misunderstood before.

I rarely need to soft reset now that I've removed O2 actived & connections.exe (thanks to this forum)

Happened to me

The other day, I was to be on the phone for about an hour (Siemens SX66) and decided to plug the car charger in to save my battery for the day. Got in the car, plugged in the cable to the phone but did not have the other end in the 12volt outlet. At first when I looked at the phone, it appeared to do a soft reset, then I realized it was a hard reset. No explanation on what happened. My fingers were no where near the power button and I did not push the reset button under the phone. Thankfully I just did a backup via activesync, so I went back into the house and restored. Took over an hour, but my phone was back to where it was from 2 hours ago. Only 2 apps I could think of that would cause this is Spb Pocket Plus OR Phone Alarm. My newest additions to the phone.
[MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General] weasel:
At least I'm not the only one who has experienced this type of problem - it might be some sort of "spike" when connecting/disconnecting from the external power connector because my problem occurs just as I disconnected from my USB power/sync lead (not the cradle, just a flying lead)

I've now bought a copy of Sprite and am backing up my XDA on a daily basis. Only takes a few minutes. I'm going to hard reset at the weekend & try to restore a backup.
