Well this phone doesn't like anything but a factory charger if it dies.

Don't have access to one at the moment. Guess I will have to order one.
[Motorola Atrix HD] krzy2:
It seems that it does...

My Atrix HD doesn't seem to care what charger I use. It died on me this morning after 34hours (MAXX battery) and I am charging it up using a Blackberry 700ma charger (slow but works). I have drained it to death and charged it up via USB from laptop too. Not saying that its not possible for it to be "locked" to a factory charger, just saying that it seems not all of them are.

Aight,I've searched similars threads on this forum and I cant seem to fix this problem :/,I'm using an HTC Merge stock gingerbread,Im trying to use it with a GSM network in dominican republic,it sometimes connect to the network but only last for a few hours then i have to turn on/off radio to get it working,when signal drops it says ''Limited Service'' on my screen and when i try to connect manually to the network it says ''Your Sim card doesnt not allow a connection to this network''.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stockcar:
Hi. Could someone tell me if it's normal for my s3 to not charge while playing games or movies etc when it's plugged in? Thanks.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scorpiopantera:
Get a battery app such as better battery stats. I bet it is charging, but since playing a game or a movie will drain your battery...

Do like I did a while back, spent 22 bucks on a QCell 4200mah extended battery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Depends. Its certainly not abnormal. Depends how much power is being used. Games more so.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stockcar:
If i get this right :) the games or movies are draining the battery faster than it can charge. And considering how long it takes to charge thats sounds right. I looked at a few of the extended battery packs. Saw one on ebay 20,000 mah for $25. Quick question wont they be the same as a charger being plugged in and still charge at the same slow rate or are they actually an extension to the battery? Sry for the noob questions first phone ive owned that the battery didnt last a few days. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
Do you mean when you're not playing a game or watching a video?

Wrong forum?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stockcar:
Yeah it takes forever to charge when not in use. Atleast 3-4 hrs.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danarama:
I'm not even sure what normal is anymore.

Use this app:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free

To check your maximum when charging. It should be 1000 (or 999) when on AC, 475 on USB 2 and 900 on USB 3.

This might not work with your model S3, I don't know it, you're in the wrong forum ;)

[Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti] cthiel08:
Having troubles with my 5110. I've used the multi window manager for a couple weeks now without a problem. A couple days ago I was using my note for navigation and it turned off and wouldn't boot back up. Now the display will turn on and I hear it boot but it only lights up black. I want to try a reset but can't see to do anything. I can get it to download mode with the buttons and got Odin to flash a stock Rom, but couldn't do a reset.

Anyone have any ideas? I'd like to avoid sending in for repair because it's my main nav and I'm a trucker.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] 318sugarhill:
After reading about how Android 4.3 and beyond will change root and the new device manager boots the phone into recovery.....and I'm sure that it won't wipe with a custom recovery. I'm guessing our days of crack flashing will come to an end in the future. Hopefully Google will find some ways to keep security in line and also stay friendly to the Development community.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] KennyG123:
There have been many devices put out that the manufacturers had declared unrootable that ended up rooted.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] jmgib:
There is a difference between gaining root and being able to install custom ROM.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] mlin:
Doesn't the new device manager run once the OS is booted?

Also, I don't think Google has any interest in blocking root and the development community. Look at their devices and play store: all of their Nexus and GE products are unlocked and their play store allows rooted apps. I think you're being paranoid.

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:53 PM ----------

True, but on devices without locked bootloaders (not so uncommon outside of Verizon and AT&T) installing custom ROMs and recoveries is pretty straight forward.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Same issue here..

I tried all solutions given here, plus the solution provided by Google but nothing works.

In case anyone doesn't know the google solution:

If your Android device doesn't appear in Android Device Manager, or if you see Unknown location despite your device being online and running Google Play services version 3.2.25 or higher, follow these steps:

Open Google Settings from your device's apps menu.

Touch Android Device Manager.

Uncheck Allow remote factory reset.

Go to your device's main Settings menu, then touch Apps > All < Google Play services.

Touch Clear Data. Note that this action doesn't remove personal data.

Go back to Google Settings and select Allow remote factory reset.

Restart your device.

You can get here by clicking the cog in the device manager screen and selecting help.

Didn't work for me but maybe it helps for someone else..

I was able to locate and ring my Nexus 7 only after enabling location access under system settings:

Access location checkbox (checked)

Location reporting (Off)

Location History (Off)

So location reporting is not a prerequisite.

Just enabling Settings>"Location Access">"Access to my location" did not work.

stock N4 ADM issues

Hello guys,

I'm having problems getting ADM to work properly on my Nexus 4 as well.

The device is listed in the device manager correctly, but can't be located and won't ring. Also, the "last used" info is not really correct (showing yesterday atm, but maybe it's PDT instead of my actual GMT+1, I dunno :confused:)

(I'll try attaching an image.)

I've checked all relevant settings and they are correct. After some research into this, I tried the solution offered by Google, but that did nothing.

After going through this site and this thread in particular I've found nothing helpful as well...

I am using a stock OS and my phone is still unrooted.

Any suggestions or things I should test would be really appreciated. :)

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RoliSoft:
Based on my recent experiments with GCM, a push message can be delayed up to 7 minutes on my Nexus 4, if the device is in deep sleep, but on average push messages are usually processed within 2 minutes when in deepsleep, or instantly when the screen turns on.

Try going to ADM, click "Locate this device" and leave the page open for 10-20 minutes, see if that works. You device should, in theory, receive and process the push message in this timeframe.

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sagirfahmid3:
Hi everyone, just wondering which CM would be best for the Nook Color, in terms of performance.

I don't require the extra features from CM10. Since the Nook Color is an old device, I'm fine with running an older version of CM if need be.

I am also looking forward to overclocking. As far as I can tell, CM7 > CM10 in overclocking performance.

Which is best for graphically intensive tasks? (YouTube, etc)

Thanks,

(Can ya believe it? won a Nook Color off eBay for $29 in total, s&h included).
