[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmmpretzels:
screen going berserk when placed on qi charger

I have had this same issue yesterday, but only on one of my phones.

I have an E-Ceros One (Chinese MTK Octacore phone, twin/clone Ulefone U5) and my old (now my wife's) SG Note 1 (GT n7000).

Bought a qi receiver from eBay for each phone that plugs into micro usb port of the phone and receiver pad lies inside between battery and back case, and a cheap qi charger pad.

Put the receiver in the Note, chuck it on the charger & starts charging - no problems! :D (other than it does get a little warm when charging)

Put the other receiver in my E-Ceros One, lay it on the charger, starts charging but the screen goes berserk - definitely looks like the electromagnetic field is making the screen digitizer go crazy.

I have sort of found workaround/s though:

- either turn the phone off first and put it on the qi charger, OR

- the qi charger I have is rectangular, and if I sit the phone across the width of the charger, i.e. so the top and bottom of phone are sitting over the sides of the charger with nothing underneath, it starts charging and screen doesn't go crazy. If I wait ~30 secs I can then turn the phone so it sits along the length of the charger and screen doesn't go crazy - I'm thinking the electromagnetic field "settles" after charging for a few moments.

So yes, it's weird :p

I had this for ages and it was draining my battery really bad and I discovered it started when I had my tablet plugged into an extended usb cable into my charger but it ran out of battery and wasn't the same since and just charging to 100% didn't get rid of it or rebooting or brushing the usb port (some suggestions I found on Google and Xda)

I searched google and xda for answers but didn't get any so what I did was charge my battery to 100% and then callibrate my battery and the wakelock disappeared

This happened with my note 10.1 but thought I'd post this here to help anyone who has this wakelock for the for the galaxy s3
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tariq2kn:
Try to unplug the charger when phone is unlocked. Then reboot the phone. Now check in BetterBatteryStats for this wakelock.

I had this wakelock issue on my previous S2.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XenomorphXx121:
It happens when you use a faulty usb cable or extension cable and the phone or tablet doesn't charge but when you unplug the cable it still thinks it's charging but it's not, the vbus wakelock is a usb charging wakelock, rebooting does nothing I had the wakelock for two weeks until I got rid of it and when I searched on Google and xda nobody knew how to get rid of it

How do you callibrate battery?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
You charge the phone and use it for a week .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winkot:
This is the normal use of the device. What then is calibrated?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
What you asked how do you calibrate i then gave you the correct answer .

The battery is calibrated by normal use please read the stickied FAQs and guides .
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winkot:
Do I understand correctly, the normal using of the battery performs its calibration? No action need not be applied?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
Whenever u charge the phone to 100%, the battery is automatically calibrated.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] winkot:
But Samsungnooby wrote that he specially made calibration and vbus wake lock disappeared. Howl it can be done if it is done automatically every time you charge up to 100%?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jumaqidi:
Download Battery Calibration from play store and follow it. U nid to have root btw.

Event [Authentication with 00:bb:cf:12:c1:df timed out.]

The setting is using a usb wifi finger with softAP to share PC internet connection. Everything is working, cause my "new" phone with 4.1.2 has no problem connecting. Triple+ check on the pwd, no problem. So at this stage I know, X10 can detect the AP, recognize the channel, identify the security protocol, but timeout at authentication...

either there's no response from the AP, or x10 has problem recognizing the authentication is done!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] dtrail1:
HDMI is mostly related to the kernel (for kexec at least). But currently there is a new kernel and a workaround for kexec in development, 3.0.31 / 3.0.88 Kernel. Two of the main goals are Full HD video recoding and HDMI.

The apks only will not work as there are complete different drivers in the kexec kernel. I guess we would have it working already if this could have been fixed by app side.

However, maybe I'm wrong :)

Hash told me about the current development, you can see it in their repo of course. Maybe we should wait a little more..

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sanchezsteez:
Earlier today I decided to flash liquidsmooth onto my S3. Before I did so I made both a TB and nandroid backup of my files, flashed the rom and rebooted. when the phone booted up everything ran fine except now I cant restore my phone with either of my backups. CWM won't even recognize any backups on my external sd (But will recognize roms, pics, etc). Needless to say I was less than pleased. I decided that was fine and I would just start fresh for now and figure it all out later. But I can't even open play store or browser to start replacing apps onto the device.. As of right now I want to get back to bone stock GS3. If that's even possible :crying:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] naathaanb96:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
Guys I made a dumb mistake. After trying to install Pinky and the Brain rom coming from another rom, I wiped my internal sd card. Well I downloaded the pinky and the brain rom and put it on an external sd card. the rom shows when I go to install but it shows all the folders, but it doesn't see the rom.zip file. I don't think this is something I have to flash with odin and Casual is out of the question since im rooted, unlocked, and on a custom rom. I am currently have TWRP. do I have to manipulate the pinky and the brain rom. Im sure im missing a step. I don't want to odin back to a stock rom then using casual to get back. is there an easier way.

I use my droid as my main internet source. Now im stuck with a POS sony Erickson experia just to have a working phone and im connecting via 3g..sucks for me lol..seriously what am I doing wrong that my phone is not showing the zip file to install via TWRP.

Again I have no rom on the phone at this point...just to be clear
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Did you make a nandroid backup before attempting to flash anything?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hredder:
No..I thought I had previous backups ..:(
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] hopesrequiem:
Bad idea. ALWAYS nandroid. Download a rom on your comp and use a card reader to transfer it to SD. Then flash it. Idk what else you can do other wise.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] rjinla:
Seems you still have access to TWRP correct?

I would then load into it, under advanced, go to sideload. Connect it to a computer with a functioning adb and sideload the zip of the rom you want to flash over.

teamw.in /ADBSideload (that's a URL, I can't put them in posts yet, too new)

I have saved a phone in a similar situation this exact way.

Hope this helps.

[Droid Ultra General] craigbailey1986:
Currently thinking of leaving Verizon. I decided to give T-Mobile/metropcs a try... I can honestly say that I will be leaving sooner than later. Even though I can't access their LTE network their h+ 42.2 network is plenty fast... And at only $40 unlimited everything I don't think I can pass this deal up.

Anyone else out there on another carrier besides Verizon? What plan and how much does it cost... Verizon is killing my pockets... since my wife stopped working to stay home with the kids, looking for ways to save on every bill...
[Droid Ultra General] squeeze:
Sounds like a smart plan. I am on VZW and have great LTE unlimited coverage on several lines :). Can't justify switching. My bill is nasty....like a $350/month nasty after 30% service discount.

Sent from VZW HTC One with Unlimited Data and Tethering (subscriber)
[Droid Ultra General] craigbailey1986:
I have great LTE coverage too. That's what has me so hesitant. But I guess some sacrifices have to be made....
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
Yeah, I'm in the same boat - no T-Mobile LTE, but do get HSPA+. I'm on the prepaid $30 100min/Unlimited Text+Data for T-Mobile. Unfortunately T-Mo coverage here is only decent along major roads, and the H+ speeds are not very consistent block-to-block. I'm probably going to just cancel the prepaid service since I only get Edge at my desk at work, which doesn't help me conserve data usage on my Verizon device, which was my intention.

My H+ speeds have ranged from about 400kbps all the way to 12mbps... potentially faster than my Verizon speeds on LTE. Just upsetting that the service is still too spotty to use it as my primary carrier.
[Droid Ultra General] craigbailey1986:
I am here in ga and it is pretty good... Not Verizon good but good none the less... I just don't know what am going to do when I leave Verizon. Their service is top notch...
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
Well like you said, sometimes you have to make sacrifices. Do you have unlimited on Verizon? How much data do you need? I know that T-Mobile will give you unlimited but I'm thinking that if you don't need unlimited, you could switch to T-Mobile for now and then switch back to Verizon later on when finances are a bit more stable.

As long as T-Mobile serves your immediate needs, then it should be fine.
[Droid Ultra General] craigbailey1986:
Yeah don't need unlimited. Its just a means to help get the bills lower. I just hate to give up Verizon. If I want to upgrade I will be forced to pay full price. But I also wanted the nexus 5 so I give it's a win win
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
I had trouble dropping my Sprint SERO line, but hopping on someone's Share Everything plan on Verizon was really the cheaper way to go. I liked only paying $50 for unlimited LTE, but it was just an extra bill that wasn't necessary (as I was on both Sprint and Verizon at that point).
[Droid Ultra General] craigbailey1986:
Yeah at this point I am paying 180 for 2 lines and I could save about 80 if we went to T-Mobile. But there service is not worth the savings I don't think.
[Droid Ultra General] Ualdayan:
The Maxx doesn't support 1700/2100Mhz does it? Eg you only get HSPA+ if you live in an area Tmobile has refarmed? (Unfortunately Tmobile doesn't own enough spectrum where I live to refarm any of their 1900Mhz spectrum, still a 21Mbps HSPA area too since Tmobile doesn't own enough to make 42Mbps work - central TN).
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
I believe it does have a 1700/2100 bands supported (per GSM Arena), and I do not think I'm in a re-farmed 1900 area. I had a T-Mobile SIM in a Sprint HTC One, DNA, and Lumia 822 and none were pulling in H+, just Edge or 3G.
[Droid Ultra General] arcanexvi:
The Maxx will not pick up 1700/2100 areas. Only the refarmed 1900. However it does support lte band 4 which will probably have its switch thrown later when vzw starts using their aws spectrum. It's not active now as far as I can tell because I can't get any better than H+ in Chicago which is entirely refarmed tmo and att doesn't trigger it either. My inkling is that vzw has that part of the radio turned off at the moment until they launch that portion of the network.

Image attached shows what the phone does support with the VZW radios.
[Droid Ultra General] MrTweakers:
This is what is capable as per Wiki's snapdragon thread. Although the chip is advertised as Motorola x8, after some digging I found the actual model number. It's msm8960DT
[Droid Ultra General] arcanexvi:
Just because the chip supports it doesn't mean that it's active or usable. Look at the nexus and its lte if you need an example. My post above yours show what moto intends to allow for this device. It "could" support more but the bands aren't active.

What I'm curious about is if we can get this ***** unlocked... Can we pull the radio files from the Tmobile X to unlock the 1700/2100 and AWS LTE bands (which the phone does support but again, are inactive at the moment). We would lose the cdma bands but for the people switching to tmo... I don't think they'd care.
[Droid Ultra General] MrTweakers:
You learn something new every day. Lol
[Droid Ultra General] ponts:
I have one in Canada and we have band 4 LTE on rogers and bell. I'm unable to get LTE. I'm hoping with root and radio flash or a Verizon update it can get lte working.

[Droid Ultra General] vuphongkkk:
will the Verizon maxx work on gsm, or you have to unlock it?
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
It is unlocked out of the box for GSM networks - just no LTE.
[Droid Ultra General] arcanexvi:
When vzw does their aws rollout I expect that a software update will roll out with it and this will change. For now it is HSPA+ only.
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
That sounds reasonable... I'm also wondering what will happen in the future 600MHz spectrum as well, seeing as how Verizon is sort of partnering with T-Mobile to grab it.
[Droid Ultra General] arcanexvi:
Current hardware will not support it. It'll require a new phone.
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
Well of course. That is kind of a given, since mobile carriers are looking to purchase it... Just not sure if it will be opened up so that devices will actually be truly "unlocked".
[Droid Ultra General] arcanexvi:
All of the verizon devices should be unlocked moving forward (as GS4 and all the new moto's are and i assume the G2) as part of their Block C agreement. There will be no more SIM locked devices on VZW (at least until some new post-LTE technology comes out).
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
Yes, I realize that, but do you think if both Verizon and T-Mobile were to utilize the 600MHz spectrum, that Verizon would allow people to bring T-Mobile devices (of course assuming the rest of the bands are compatible with CDMA) over and just pop in a VZW SIM and have it on their LTE network? (Hypothetically - assuming they use 600MHz for LTE.)

Verizon just doesn't seem to like people doing stuff like that, just based on the recent activity surrounding the '13 Nexus 7.
[Droid Ultra General] arcanexvi:
Verizon wants to test the devices on their network before they allow people to waltz into a store and add a contract to their account. If you already have an active SIM and want to pop it in that already works fine. This includes the Nexus 7. The problem people were encountering was if you walked into VZW without an active data line for this purpose already, there was no way for them to add a "misc" device to your plan as it's never been needed before.

I get where both sides (VZW and Consumers) are coming from but the biggest issue people are going to have with single band phones is that there is no fall-back frequency for it to revert to. Most people are going to be pissed when LTE signals fall out for the Nexus 7 and aren't going to want to hear that it can't fall back to 3G when you leave an LTE area or signal gets too weak. The same is true for cellular voice. Bad customer experience.

Consumers just want their device to "work" which is fine but they need to go in understanding what the experience is going to be like with single-band support.

T-Mobile/ATT will likely never release a phone with CDMA radios to be compatible with VZW/Sprint. They don't need them and the technology is patented/protected. It would only significantly affect their cost in a negative way for the additional hardware and licensing.
[Droid Ultra General] raichur0xx0rz:
Yeah, I totally get you, and it's essentially the same thing I tell a lot of people regarding Verizon's "restrictions" - Customer Service / Customer Experience. Less restriction means there is more potential for things to go wrong, which causes more issues when customers complain to Sales Reps in stores, etc.

It will just be interesting to see how it will play out with phones, though I'm not holding my breath. Probably won't get to that point unless Verizon miraculously switches to using GSM, which more than likely never happen.

Do you know how the iPhone 5S works? I thought the Model for Verizon/TMo/ATT was the same, with Sprint having it's own model.

EDIT: Hm, I guess Apple still just bundles two different variants as one Model for GSM and CDMA... oh well.
[Droid Ultra General] eighty1:
The Verizon iPhone 5S picks up t-mobile LTE but I had a Droid Maxx and it didnt and neither does my HTC One or LG G2. iPhone 5S is the only Verizon phone that gets t-mo LTE
