[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wireroid:
IIRC the warranty on a Nexus device is more lenient because... well... it's a Nexus. Any warranty claims for physical hardware issues should still be accepted since it has nothing to do with the software. It's also extremely easy to return to stock and relock the bootloader so even if you do need to send it in for repair, they'll never know.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] miketoasty:
Your best bet is to always restore to stock before making a warranty claim. A while ago I remember reading about an Asus user who's headphone port was no longer working but Asus voided the warranty due to the device being rooted. I know that's a pretty different scenario but some warranty reps will find any reason to void your device so they don't have to pay. Always better to be safe than sorry I guess.

As was said before don't worry about rooting, it is extremely easy to get back to stock and since it is a Nexus device you have a ton of failsafe options in case something does happen to go wrong,

Can someone please make a sixaxis profile for Asphalt 8. i can't get it to work

thanks in advance !!!
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] agolden23:
Asphalt 8 works great with the OTG cable. However when I connect via Sixaxis the game does not recognize the PS3 game pad. Native Gamepad is selected in Sixaxis options. if I change the keyboard type the game goes all screwy with the screen orentiation and still doesnt work. The native option works fine with other games ie. Dead Trigger. Any help with this?
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] blinkone:
This is doing my head in when I first played the game it worked perfect no game pad setup was needed just started sixaxis and it worked first time now what ever I do it wont work anyone found a answer for this I guess its a game error
[Nexus 7 Themes and Apps] Grizzly6117:

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] geocine:
Hi is it OK to leave our device connected to the computer at 100% battery level? I develop android apps and there are times I need to debug and have my device connected for hours for debugging. At 100% level, I noticed the device is not heating up and I assume this wouldn't damage the li-ion battery or would it?

Does this device have an ic chip to handle overcharging ?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] poisike:
It's not good for the battery. Lithium batteries don't like to be fully charged all the time.

I don't know about chips, but it must have overcharge protection, otherwise the battery would go up in flames.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Muikkuman:
Lithium batteries does have overcharge protection.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] z0phi3l:
I've had no issues doing it with a few devices and my battery has never had issues, I always plug my devices in and let them charge overnight whether they need it or not
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] catlog:
From what I have read, there isn't a need for concern. The device automatically cuts off charging at 99-100% and there is overcharge protection. Unless I am missing something.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] LoVeRice:
Great now i can sleep at night without worrying my phone getting overcharged
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] afremont:
I've noticed that (at least when it's close to being full) that the kernel watches it like a hawk. It seems to be checking on things every 20 seconds according to the dmesg output. It's reporting the voltage, temp and calculated charge level each time around.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] geocine:
I am really curious if it does really have because I have an li-ion battery on my Samsung galaxy ace and I have been doing the same thing. But now the battery performance is a lot lower compared to when I first had it. What seems to be the reason? Is it true for all lo-ion batteries?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Valynor:
Has been said before, but here we go again: Things that are BAD for your LiIon/LiPoly battery:

-storing your battery at full charge (which is essentially what you are doing)

-running down the battery to "0%", i.e. < 3.40 V repeatedly

-heat

-very fast discharges (not possible with a smartphone)

-very fast charges (again not possible)

So, if you want to get the best life out of your battery, it is definitely NOT advisable to leave it connected to the charger at all times. It will (or should) not get overcharged, but simply being at full charge for a prolonged time damages the cell more than being used in a normal fashion.

And yes, all LiIon batteries in phones have overcharge protection, because LiIon batteries burst into flames at just about 4.55 V (which is obviously very close to the full charge voltage) and companies want to avoid that in general. ;)
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] EvanA:
I'm just going to leave this here.

Taken from: http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one/288313-safe-charge-battery-overnight.html#post2859433
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] geocine:
That is a very clear explanation. Is it possible to disable charging when connected to computer (programatically)?

It is really a pain to disconnect it every time I hook it up on a computer for debugging and it wouldn't even guarantee to discharge when I hook it up and disconnect when not debugging since I do it frequently. When debugging, everytime I change and compile code I need to hook it up to the computer. I am debugging games and sometimes smali files so an emulator is not really an option.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Valynor:
I guess it would be possible by modifying the Android kernel.

The best practical advice is probably: Buy only smartphones with exchangeable batteries. :cyclops:
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kitch9:
Have we gone back to 1985?

Where's my tinfoilhat?

Aliens n stuff!
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Valynor:
If you don't know much about LiIon battery chemistry, perhaps you want to research a little bit?
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kitch9:
Facepalm.gif.

Op said he connects his machine for HOURS. If he said YEARS I'd agree with you, all li-ion modern batteries have circuits which moderate their charge cycle to condition the battery when plugged in. When your device is plugged in it doesn't actually mean the battery is charging if it doesn't need it then it won't be. You might want to research that.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] poisike:
Of course its not charging if its full, otherwise it would go up in flames. But Valynor is right, storing lithium batteries fully charged is not good for the battery.
[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] kitch9:
Which is awesome, but that was not what the OP was asking. All Li-ion batteries have overcharge/discharge protection which means the OP can do as he has asked without worrying.

Banging on about how he might die in a fire is a little..... Hyperbolic?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diotallevisheir:
Hello,

First: I know these problems have been reported before, but to no avail AFAIK...

So, here's my problem:

My girlfriend's SGS 9000 (International Version) got stuck in a boot loop after randomingly crashing (running CM 9).

The recovery-mode key combination does not work, but I can enter Download Mode.

The problem is now: KIES (latest version) and ODIN won't detect the phone (tried v 1.85 and 1.83) at all. Heimdall Frontend (v 1.3.2) says "Device Detected" but if I try flashing it aborts with

Uploading PIT

ERROR: Failed to send file part packet!

PIT upload failed!

Ending session...

ERROR: Failed to send end session packet!

Heimdall crashed!

(see screenshot attached)

In the utilities section when I try to download a PIT it gives this Output:

Initialising connection...

Detecting device...

ERROR: Failed to retrieve config descriptor

(see screenshot attached)

I've reinstalled the Windows drivers (I'm on Windows 7) several times. I've tried having the latest KIES installed (but not running in the background, of course), I've tried just installing the "naked" driver (from the Samsung website). All to the same result:

Windows detects the device (as "Gadget Serial", driver by "Samsung Electronics Co Ltd), it won't show up as a mass storage device though.

ODIN and KIES do not detect the device at all, Heimdall "detects" the device but can not upload anything or "retrieve config descriptor" for PIT Download.

I've tried several USB-cables (including the original Samsung one) and USB-ports. They all work perfectly fine with my Nexus 4 and Nexus 7.

So, please, am I just missing something very obvious here or is there really no help for this semi-bricked thing?

Thanks in Advance!

Jakob
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DumF0rGaming:
Can't remember, which one ICS ROM I used before, but I got this problem too. To solve it I used old Heimdall v1.1 + zadig to install the latest stock firmware
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xsenman:
most solutions listed here and heimdal 1.3.2 had some issues, so try earlier versions . best would be to test on another PC or better still lap top and odin3 for flashing , preferably not win 7, 64 bit or win 8

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tetakpatak:
[MENTION=5372366]diotallevisheir[/MENTION] in Odin is rule-of-thumb that you must flash PIT file if you have checked re-partition. Use now your Odin 1.83 and flash again the stock ROM under PDA, but download also PIT file for i9000 and choose it under PIT (Odin will check re-partition then by default) file name ends with 512.tar

It should unbrick it.

And [MENTION=4586061]xsenman[/MENTION] is right, the flashing would have more chances to be successful if you would use a laptop with WinXP 32-bit
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] diotallevisheir:
thank you very much, sir!

Used the "restore.bat" and "Flash without repartition" and it just worked! And nothing else did!

You just saved me from a lot of trouble and my gf says thanks as well ;)

Hello

First I am sorry for my bad english.

To my problem:

I have a WFS that absolutely does not want to boot. The only thing that still works is the bootloader and fastboot. No matter what I do, it always ends in a Bootloop. Be it a normal start, recovery or factory reset. 've Re-flashed via PG76IMG.zip/RUU up and play new recovery via fastboot. Neither the original nor CWM recovery can be started. The flash was always confirmed with OK but then I end up back in just a Bootloop. The Bootloop seems no matter what I always do the same, it takes about 3 seconds for the HTC logo and then it restarts. Maybe someone here has an idea what I could try?

I have just upgraded to the XDA IIi, but have found the phone reception to be much worse than my XDA II. Particularly at the start of a call, the audio breaks up a lot and then seems to settle down, but sometimes it remains poor. Last night, my phone had a full signal and I tried to make a call but that failed then the xda said something about my data stream not working and to disconnect and reconnect.

I was wondering if anyone has experienced this, or whether they can report that their XDA IIi has good phone reception - in which case I am still within my 14 days to take the phone back to O2.

Thanks

Allan

ps what is the name for the XDA IIi? is it the blue angel?

Hi there, i also noticed my Signal strengh is lower than usual phones but nevermind.

If you have an SD card inserted, try removing it while you talk it seems to improve things for me.

Also look to upgrade the the latest ROM version, theres a post in the Himalaya & Andes section that has a info on the latest ROM.

Hi!

I would like to announce MovieDroid, an easy-to-use application to search and play movies and TV shows from any Android device.

Using this application you can find plenty of movies and play them via streaming with great quality. You can also add any movie or TV show to the favorites section to keep them handy!

NOTE: The contents are only available in English and/or original version.

MovieDroid is already available at the Play Store.
[Android Apps and Games] joshphilips:
Played a couple of movies and it works well !
[Android Apps and Games] DaPhinc:
Very nice app!

Some usefull things i would love to see in a future release:

- option to show preferred hosters on top

- option to automatically try the next launcher when one gives an error

- subtitle support (like unis video)

- option to vote for hosters, so one can quickly see that a hoster is bad.

- a dark theme
[Android Apps and Games] jumper62:
Great app. Needs subtitles within the app and chromecast support
[Android Apps and Games] dragonfly1113:

So get it while it's there. Still love tvportal as well and devs always find a way to get the app to you.

Also for the Google tv person install loaderdroid it saves the file and than can be played with mxplayer. Or on a home computer.
[Android Apps and Games] Waninkoko:
If the app is someday removed from Play Store, we have a way to notify the users about how to install and/or update it manually ;)

This app definitely has potential. I've already made a backup and stored it in the cloud. Alot of force closes and won't offer to use my player or loader droid on many of the links. I also Haven't had much success with the HD video. I wish you all the best with this app..Thank you and chive on!

Still no Chromecast support (we need to investigate more on this) but will include some fixes and more video players support.
[Android Apps and Games] dragonfly1113:
Still love this app just one issue I have when searching for some titles it just keeps loading and never pulls up the title I need to either force stop the app and restart the app or restart the phone sometimes to find it. And they are titles I've found before. Anyone else experiencing this?

[Android Apps and Games] DaPhinc:
How can i enable subtitles in the new version?
[Android Apps and Games] Waninkoko:
The subtitles support refers to the ability of new MovieDroid to retrieve the subtitles from the video host and load them. So, if the video host is providing a subtitles file, MovieDroid will load it automatically (except if we forgot to add support for some specific hosts or something is broken).
[Android Apps and Games] Derrick Ross:
Amazing
[Android Apps and Games] DaPhinc:
Oh, i see. Woud be nice if the hosters that have subtitles were marked somehow. The selection of the player every time is also a little annoying, an option to select a standard player would be nice.

First let me thank you for this awesome app. I really enjoy being able to watch movies without having to download them first.

I noticed that the search behavior was changed in the newer versions.

When I search for the word "Orange" I expect MovieDroid to (also) find the movie "A Clockwork Orange". I believe it did in version 1.0.0, but it doesn't anymore..
[Android Apps and Games] Waninkoko:
The search was re-implemented in another way because the search functionality from the provider was broken. Now the search is faster, finds everything, but sadly it only returns 10 results so you need to search for the exact keywords :/
[Android Apps and Games] riesdepies:
I was guessing something like that. Still I have to say I preferred the slower, 'broken' search functionality. Would there be any harm in me using the old version of the app? If not, could you provide me with a link to it? Thank you very much!
