[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdaniels31:
I had this exact problem I believe...tried several different chargers...everthing. Try turning the phone off and see if it takes a charge. When mine was off it would show a gray battery and vibrate every 5-10 seconds. I figured it was an issue with the charging/usb port but all of the sudden my phone started charging normally and is visible by a computer. Lasted for about 4 days and have been in the clear for about 3 days now. No clue what went wrong or why, but try what I mentioned above by charging with phone off for a half hour or so and see if it has charged at all. If you need a new USB port, not all GS4's have the same port, so you must get a verizon specific one (ebay). usually run about $20..or $65 installed at a phone fixing center. I didnt want to lose MDK, so I was prepared to just charge externally, but ended up not having to...yet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mikenilson:
It happened to me also. I had some intermittent luck with blowing out the port with air from my air compressor. But in the end it just stopped working and Verizon sent me a refurbished one.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] pcmaster44:
I Also have this problem!

PLEASE HELP!

I don't know why but my international galaxy s4 running cm 10.1.3 stable isn't charging...

I plug it in to the wall and nothing happens its as if the phone doesn't even know it's plugged in...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jdaniels31:
Have you tried powering down your phone and seeing if that gray battery comes up and you get the vibrations (while plugged into charger)? You may need a new port, but since your under warranty, you could get a replacement unless you want to charge externally

S4 problem after update to 4.3

Hy,

I have a similar problem with my S4 (i9505), won't indicate if it is charging or connect to a computer, but while the charger is conected to S4, the battery level is increasing. When the battery is fully charged S4 is SHUTING DOWN!!!! And it wont start by pressing ON/OFF button, it will only start after I press Vol Down+Power, after goes to Download Mode and press Vol Down .

Tryed in many ways to fix:

- restore-

- hard reset

- changed te battery and charger

-i\ve changed even the usb port (flex cable) and =no results...

All problem started after update to 4.3.... and it is not an isolated case too many people complains about this 'awesome smartphone' with 'awesome issues' .

So, if anyone have any ideea how to solve this issues....

{Sorry for my bad english}
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] templton:
Had the same problem...lasted for about a day, I had to take a dry q-tip and clean the charger and the port where the phone charges and was able to get it working again. If you are rooted and are having issues go to amazon or ebay and get a wireless charger and it should take care of your problems as well
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alexmanu:
Ok....wireless charger...but what about syncing with the PC?

Now I have JB 4.3 , for a custom ROM I need to use usb cable to connect to PC, rigth?.

For me it is annoying, because I do not know for sure if this is caused by updatind to 4.3 or is a harware problem.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NC_user:
My wife's phone had this issue last night and this morning; charger or computer, it wouldn't charge. I turned it off, took out the battery, SIM and uSD card and put them all back in. After that it started charging again. I don't know if this will solve the problem long term, but so far it seems to have done the trick...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alexmanu:
Lucky you...I did more than that, but no result in my case. I found on ''community.verizonwireless'' many more similar cases where ''customers support'' tried to avoid giving the answers for a real solution.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] NC_user:
Well, our luck didn't hold. My wife's S4 wouldn't charge again last night. I tried another Samsung charger and a different cable but it wouldn't work either. When we left the house she tried it on the car charger and it worked great. Trying various other chargers we found that a kindle charger wouldn't work, but other third party chargers would. Even her PC USB port seems to work and she doesn't have the drivers loaded. For now she replaced the Samsung charger and cable that came with her phone for one that came as part of an accessory pack and it's happy again.

I have no idea what's going on with the thing. I asked one of the guys at the Samsung booth in Bestbuy and all he had to offer was reflashing the ROM or un-rooting it and doing a warranty exchange...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alexmanu:
Can you check, please, if your new data cable has 4 or 5 pins(look to the side that connects to your phone )?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blueangel0508:
My first s4 done this. So I ended up with a replacement mdk phone after I figured out if you bend the lil piece in the charging port of your phone (not too much BTW) the charger will slide into the port as it's meant to.

Sorry I can't remember the tech term for that lil pin inside the charging port.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] stein5830:
Just going to throw this out there....

I think the S4 is compatible with QI compliant wireless chargers. Amazon has some that are only $20... might be worth the purchase.... hell if I didn't have this tank of a case on I would buy it.

http://www.amazon.com/Lerway-Wireless-Power-Charger-Lumia920/dp/B00E9MUNWU
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alexmanu:
Thanks for your answer, but I already did that....I even changed the flex cable with charging port, no luck for me.....

I think this issue it is not hw problem because, look what I did today:

-I put a new Rom , so I used MIUI FOR I9505 from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2306650

And now it behaves even stranger:

S4 is ON and wall charger is conected, (LED IT IS OFF but BATTERY IS BLINKING and is charging ) after battery level go up to 100% and disconect the charger, the LED STARTS TO LIGHT GREEN!!!!

So, now shows that is charging when charger is NOT connected?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blueangel0508:
Huh that's weird. How did you get miui to run on our phone? You've got the i545 right? I've been jonesing for miui ha.

As for the issue wish I could help you out...thought pushing that part would work :(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] alexmanu:
I've got SG-I9505 (LTE I9505XXUEMK8 ) and I only folowed the instructions on that thread (see link in my previous post).

That Green LED goes off oly if I reboot ... and my new (and the old one) battery shows : before reboot 100% and after 70%.

I think something is wrong with the main board.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] blueangel0508:
That's a drastic drop for the battery. I'd say you are prob right about it being internal issue..be it the main board or something else.

I'd test another ROM out before sending it back. It could be ROM related as well...or hope since it would fix it without a warranty replacement. Wish I could help you out but I've been lucky with my second one ha
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] LotoTutu:
The way to solve the problem that The Galaxy S4 can’t charge.

1.Reboot or soft-reset

2.Clean the inner pins of Galaxy S4 USB port

4.Disassemble the phone and check the flex cable of USB port. The way to repair the usb port : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=snCH8H3NCMA

5.If charging port for Galaxy S4 looks intact then you should check the battery, battery flex cable, battery connectors.

6.If it still not work, it will be a troublesome question that the charge ic on the mother board is broken. You have to send it to the service center.

Help! My Samsung Galaxy S4 won't charge or connect to a computer. I've tried different chargers, cables, plug in locations, car, 110, computer. There is no dirt. Connection is clean. I have a spare battery and both of them will charge on the battery charger. I have tried backed up roms. I have done a factory reset.

All of this and nothing helped. Am willing to try anything. Verizon is going to send me a refurb.

I've remarked that when my Galxy S4 is locked/sleep mode there is wifi and GPS that are always on.

I've done the following :

Keep wifi on when on sleep : only when plugged in

Wifi and mobile network location : Offà

Mobile data is turned off

I don't know what else to do in order that those 2 things stop using battery life when on sleep mode...

PS: You can see that on my battery usage statistic, GPS ON (almost always) and Wifi too. Some off moments were there because I turned them off to do some testings.

I prefer not using any other third-party application in order to make this. It must be something in the normal settings that may cause this. I'll try a factory restore, but I don't think this is what will solve the problem because I just received the phone...
[HTC One X] dragonflame8712:
okay ive been experiencing strange stuff on my one x. sometimes out of no where the audio (music,playback,riinger,internel speakers,headphones) sounds like its in fast forward. .. even video . when i play vid its like its skipping 2 seconds everytime. in other words, everything coming out of speaker or headphones sounds like chipmunks :p. to resolve this issue i have to restart the phone (evcen hot boot,shell restart helps ) . but it seems to come back once in a while. sometimes too fast.

what causes this problem . is this hardware issue or software issue. i m running viper 3.7.5 rom with xm kernel.is this about kernel? ( i doubt, coz i had this issue on different roms too)
[HTC One X] Alex-V:
Installed any sound mods..?
[HTC One X] snebojsa:

I'm also on viper 3.7.5 with it's kernel, no modification of any kind, no sound mods. Sometimes it's occur after couple hours, sometimes after couple of days.
[HTC One X] dragonflame8712:
found the reason

okay i found the culprit. i used to install beats enhanced mod http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1720770 with venom rom and that was the main culprit. seems its not compatible with viper rom

i reflashed the rom without the jb beats mod and now its working fine since 3 days now .:D

Hey. I was wondering if there was any option to connect our phone (optimus 4x) to TV, in my case the Samsung Smart Tv Es8000 ([samsung.com/uk/consumer/tv-audio-video/television/led-tv/UE40ES8000UXXU) .

If possible, what should I get ? (cables and that sort of stuff) . I wanted to share the screen with the Tv, for video streaming and gaming on a bigger screen. Any ideas?
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dadovvv:
Sure u can.. i use this cable http://www.ebay.com/itm/Micro-USB-M...-HTC-Sensation-G14-EVO-3D-flyer-/280766335892
[LG Optimus 4X HD] nmbbf:
And it shares the image with the tv ? Sorry if noob question ahah
[LG Optimus 4X HD] JoinTheRealms:
Yeah video and audio, mhl connections are a mix of data and HDMI
[LG Optimus 4X HD] moneyvirus:
if you want to share you phone with your tv, maby you could use the dnla option?

it's an easy way to share pictures/ movies on your tv.

for gaming i think you need the MHL indeed.
[LG Optimus 4X HD] Dadovvv:
Yea u can completly transfer your mobile screen to tv using mhl to hdmi cable..like mirror

Hey,

I hope I hit the right forum-section.

I use the app ShareKM to use my pc-keyboard/mouse with my android-devices and I found a solution for the problem with mixed-up keys on non-us keyboards.

The attached flashable .zip adds two files which fixes the wrong key-code-mapping and the layout.

There's only the German layout included.

If you need another layout or want further information please check my blog-post:

http://fotodio.de/sharekm-keyboard-layout-workaround-2/

EDIT: I made a few fixes. Version 0.2 is attached.

EDIT2: I made some more of them fixes.. -> 0.3
[Android General] quack3d:
The URL to the site is http://puzzled-electrons.de/sharekm-keyboard-layout-workaround-2/

Here is my Norwegian version of the .kcm. This does not require a .kl file. Just extract the zip and put HID_compliant_kbd.kcm into /system/usr/keychars and make sure permissions are set to rw-r--r--.

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
I don't know the best way to word this, but on like the S3, S4, if the screen times out and shuts off, you have a few seconds to turn wake it up again WITHOUT having to swipe/drag anything...

Does that make sense? ha...

I want that...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] IceyYou2:
That makes sense. It's built in the MIUI ROM on my Xperia S at least, would be interesting to see if there is an app for it.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
An app would be nice too, I just don't want some 3rd party lock screen.. I like my Sense! I also love Viper so I don't really want a different ROM..
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gk1984:
Settings - security - lock phone after___

It's an android feature built in
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
What you're referring to is actually under display settings, but regardless that isn't what I mean. I want it to automatically lock, but on the occasion that I'm not ready for it to happen, I want to wake within a few seconds without a drag. Like the galaxy phones.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] gk1984:
On stock rom, I see it under security. But under display try changing sleep? Might be way off though
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
Ahh on stock that makes sense. Sleep just determines how long until the screen shuts off. I don't want to change that.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rirere:
To be quite honest, the "lock after" option under Security does exactly what you're requesting (unless I'm misreading your post, which I doubt). However, that option only appears if you have some kind of security lock enabled, as opposed to just one of HTC's lockscreens from the Personalize menu.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
Regardless, I still have to 'pull up to unlock' which is what I don't want to have to do if the screen JUST shut off.

I can put a vid of what samsung does I guess, since its tough to explain..

However I do appreciate the help attempts! :)
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Rirere:
I own several Samsung devices, so I'm aware. You do know that there is the "No lock screen" option in Personalize that you can combine with a security lock, right?
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
Must just be the ROM I'm using then. If have no lock screen, I don't get any options for security lock. Also there is never anything in personalize.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] burnface:
I can disable the lock screen yes, but I don't want a security lock..

No security lock. Are you sure you know what I mean? No offense meant, but so far nothing has been relevant for what I actually want.

[T-Mobile HTC One (M7)] andybfmv96:
nightlies arent necessarily unstable. usually stable releases have no experimental features. the lack of these features only leave the features that are 100% stable. the nightly itself isnt unstable, it just may ,mean that some newer features can be buggy
