[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maisi:
There's a pattern obviously, the 6ft to 3ft drop seems high but is ok I guess.

I've never seen such a picky device when it comes down to charging, usually it just works as expected ^^

Have you tried your cables on the carger it came with ? Or the cable it came with on your other cargers ?

Is there something with "AWG" written on your cables ?

[MENTION=5532953]random_dgp[/MENTION]: Well you basically have 2 choices: get a kernel with (force) fast charge support (don't know if there is one yet) or get a charger/cable combo which works.

If you're planning on rooting your N5 anyway I would go for the kernel way I guess, since the charger and the cable are fine most probably, they just aren't in the specs the N5 requires.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TurboFool:
The first-gen Nexus 7 was at least this bad. Actually its biggest problem was it refused to even ADMIT it was charging (even though it was) off of most devices. In fact everything I just listed it would claim wasn't even connected to it. A few hours later it was full, but it refused to recognize it. 4.2 fixed that, but it was still slow off of most devices. This at least admits it's being charged, but barely is.

And no, I haven't tried the stock charger yet. I guess I will, but it's not a high priority since it doesn't cover my issues.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cutterjohn:
OOC what sort of dmm/ammeter are you using to measure this?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Enddo:
i dont know if you're making this up, or if i have a defective nexus 4 lol

before i optimized my N4 i was getting about 4-5 hours of screen time, but it took at least 3 full hours to charge. that charge time to usage time ratio was killing me.

i am having much much much better results with my N5. i have no reason to charge it through a USB port on the computer(are you using an USB 1.0 port or something?), but charging it with the charger that it came with, i get a full charge in about 2 hours.

my N5 will charge a tiny bit over 1% per minute(while on or off), until it gets to 80% and then it charges at about .5% per minute or something

if you're getting the same charge times on the wall charger then i think you might have a defective charger/device. testing this will also be a good way to find out if it's just a slow usb port too
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maisi:
Oh that's bad , I didn't know that!

Would just be the "reference test" since the stock charger should meet all the specs (and works fine here with every cable).

[MENTION=2795200]cutterjohn[/MENTION]: "Currentwidget" can display those values.

The problem he's having isn't about a computer USB port at all, the problem is that the N5 thinks it's plugged in a computer and limits the current to 500mA to meet the USB specs (and don't blow up some usb ports without a fuse somewhere) but in reality it's plugged in a wall charger.

His phone should be fine since it's working as expected on some carger/cable combos.

Btw. the N5 isn't pulling more current than the N4(both 1,2A), so it should charge almost exactly as fast/slow as the N4. It should even be a bit slower since the battery is slightly bigger I think.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TurboFool:
I'm simply using the app Battery Monitor Widget. Really handy tool that solved some problems for me on the 4 with some weird charging situations. While I'm sure it's not insanely precise, it reflects my draining or charging rate well enough to show me what's going on.

I think you're missing the fact that I'm comparing it directly to how well these same devices charged the 4. So they're clearly not defective so much as the 5's requirements have changed completely. And USB 1.0 (I think you mean 1.1) isn't relevant here, as I'm not charging off a computer, I'm charging off a wall and/or car adapter. But sounds like we had very different experiences with the 4. I could charge my 4 off my Monoprice pocket battery in crazy fast time, and my phone was always full by the time I reached my destination in the car, even with Waze running (once I figured out I couldn't use the long cable I was using initially).

Absolutely. A control of sorts. Might as well.

Exactly. That's why I was surprised. There's no way it SHOULD be this much slower. Yes, I can see percentage adjusting slightly for the larger battery, but that's why I'm going by mA input instead, and my 4 was getting WAY better in the car. Although I don't think it ever got the 1.2 I'm getting with the Monoprice wall combo, so THAT's impressive. Now if I can just get that in my car without the RF interference and I can call it a day.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cutterjohn:
Well then your either have defective hardware or currentwidget just doesn't work. As I inferred hard to tell w/o proper tools.

[EDIT]

Oops, multiple responses and replied to incorrect one, but really if your recharge rate is that much lower v. n4 I'd say that your chargers or n5 are defective. It's going to take longer to charge the n5 obviously, and I have no idea what the max draw either can achieve as I've been strictly using inductive charging w/max 1A supply(as per Qi spec)... n5 takes longer to charge than n4, but thats to be expected by batt cap(and wear(decreased cap) of n4 batt)...

Subjectively, the n5 takes longer to charge, but not that much longer that I've noticed, again batt cap, etc. so...

Both USB/AC adapter chargers I know supply a max of 1.2A...

...(from last so) ask for a replacement n5, after they've been replacing them for a single dead pixel...

[/EDIT]
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] casonswag:
My n5 charging real fast fatter t than my n4!
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maisi:
Neither I think, we don't need any mA values to see that something is wrong, android is telling us that it thinks that it's connected to a usb port while it isn't.

Of course if we would want to measure exact mA values we would need a different equipment, for cable comparisions in order to see a tendency, the values from the charge IC should be good enough.(IMO)

Just saw your edit ^^

Well it looks like the N5 has a very low tolerance for AC/USB detection, I'm sure that neither his chargers or Phone are defective, the chargers just aren't 100%in the spec which is obviously enough. I'm sure that the stock charger would be fine.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TurboFool:
Clearly neither is the case from my testing. The N5 charges beautifully off of the right combination of chargers, and all of those chargers charged the N4 beautifully. Neither is defective, but the N5 apparently has a different tolerance requirement than the N4.

Really, as opposed to anything being defective, it sounds more like a design flaw in the N5. It's WAY too picky about its power sources.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MisterEff:
Mine charged REALLY slow the first day and that night. It also drained really quickly during that same time. I am now on my third day and it has long battery life plus it charged about 20% in 30 minutes on a car charger. Seems quicker than my S3.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chas123:
Update 2: Attached is an EPST that will allow ##778# PRL changes on KitKat ROMS. It took me a while to figure this out. I had planned on posting this up, but wanted to keep it a Bad Boyz exclusive for a short while. Again the teams intention was always to share this with the community.

Update: I finally cracked EPST. If you have changed your sku to 42, you can set it back to 10 and flash the PRL_Update below. If you have not flashed this, and would like ##778# to work, you can flash the EPST_Only.zip

The EPST will not work on a ROM that already has the sku set to 42

The attached zip includes a modified Phone.apk and the EPST and Fieldtrial apks posted by schmeggy929. This MOD will allow you to change your PRL by dialing ##778# while maintaining the proper CDMA settings under settings> Mobile Data. You need to be rooted to do this.

Instructions:

1) Open a file manager and navigate to system/customize/ACC/default.xml. Open this with an editor and near the bottom change:

<item type="integer" name="sku_id">10</item>

To:

<item type="integer" name="sku_id">42</item>

2) Reboot into recovery and flash the attached zip

3) Wipe caches and reboot

Note: Depending on how the location icon was removed from your ROM, this MOD may cause it to reappear. For those on 5.5 ROMs. this will also get rid of the persistent 3G icon in the status bar.

Awesome! This works on the Sense 5.0/Android 4.3 as well!

Didn't work for me either, had to restore a nandroid because it killed my cell radio. Running Insert Coin R279.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chas123:
I thought PRL already worked on that ROM.

Try again, then go to setting>Mobile Data>Network Mode and make sure it is set to CDMA
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] uh60james:
It's supposed to work but for some reason it's not working for everyone. I'll try again in a bit.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Illidane:
Oh sorry. That worked! Forgot to set CDMA only...
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chas123:
EcliticOne and Insertcoin both have the sku_set to 42, but they aren't using the Phone.apk that I modified. If you flash the zip on those ROMs you will have to manually set the network mode.

EDIT: Also- on EclipticOne, I don't know how this might jack up the inversion. If someone wants to post up their Phone.apk, I will modify it so that you guys will have the proper CDMA settings- i.e. the ability to switch LTE on and off- while maintaining the color scheme.

EPST_Only.zip........ confirming works with Viper RC2 rom

Thanks chas :good:

EPST worked fine for me with insertcoin but I have seens others saying it dont work for them for some strange reason so this mod may be useful for those guys too.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] copekyle:
This did bring EPST functionality back on InsertCoin R289. However, it does not get rid of the persistent 3G icon and it does bring the location icon back. Any body have any idea how to fix those two problems?

[Sprint HTC One (M7)] OMJ:
sweet...latest update working awesome! thx bro!
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chas123:
That is going to have to be fixed by whoever cooked up your particular ROM. 5.5 is not ready for prime time where sprint is concerned. The persistent 3g icon and the location icon are there by HTC's doing.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] mrshades812:
So, if we flash this will it give us a stock dialer? Just wondering what it would do to the themed tranquil dialer...

Thanks for working on this for the community, us sprint users know the need for roaming and 3g data!

Peace.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chas123:
If you have a themed Phone.apk, have your sku set to 10 (please check out the OP), and flash the EPST_Only.zip it will have no other effect than to give you the ##778# function.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] Sloth:
I tried this on TranquilOne and the only way I got it to work was to make the edit(changing 10 to 42) and flash the PRL.zip. Only downside was it gave me a black on black EPST popup the one where you choose View or Edit. I tried the EPST zip and it wouldn't even bring up the menu.
[Sprint HTC One (M7)] chas123:
Guess I should have stated-

Won't work on odexed ROM's-

If you want this to work on an odexed ROM you are going do have to do a ch 755 mod
[Nexus 5 General] danv28:
I ordered my Nexus 5 October 31st, and have read countless threads about defects for the phone. UPS just delivered my Nexus 5.. this phone is absolutely amazing.

01. There's no wiggle/rattle when shaking the phone.. the only sound I hear is the camera lense, nothing coming from the power button. Power button isn't that lose, sits tight, same with volume rockers. The edges are a little sharp on the buttons but I like it - easier to find them in the dark and press.

02. No dead pixels.

03. No strange sound when tapping on the display

04. Display looks amazing - nice bright colours. Natural tones. Awesome. No odd yellow tint on whites.

05. Vibration sounds solid - not too loud, not too soft, just right.

06. Why is everyone complaining about the sound? Seriously? Just tested music and YouTube - and sounds great (had the HTC One and I'm not complaining here)

Prior to receiving the phone, I actually compiled a list of things to check to see if my phone has issues. These are all points I read in threads, and made me feel uneasy about receiving my unit.

Will do more tests, but if you ordered the phone and haven't received it yet- GET EXCITED. Buttery smooth, great build quality (well, at least mine is), and well worth the money.

Well done, Google and LG.
[Nexus 5 General] 666fff:
Yup. Enjoy.
[Nexus 5 General] RedBlueGreen:
There will always be a selected bunch of people that over exaggerate.. but there are faults with this phone.. mostly quality control faults.

Is the speaker pop when turning off just the screen off sound?
[Nexus 5 General] myorks1127:
My phone is perfect, zero flaws. I also think the speaker is decent and is much better than my N4, call quality is excellent too! Love the phone, period.
[Nexus 5 General] cutterjohn:
They're just gonna get a refurb...

Anyways, yeah, mine is fine too, other than I really have crappy signal coverage here regardless of what T-mo claims... but at least I'm finally back to what I had as "good" HSPA+ latency/bandwidth(LTE mind you, c. 10Mup/2Mdown/70+ms latency T-mobile USA) before it all went to hell last spring... so it's an upgrade in that sense, although I must admit overall the n5 is MUCH snappier than the n4, and the radios really are better(or at least WiFi, hard to tell with cell)...

Build quality is NOT NEARLY as good as the n4 overall though IMNHO... the n5 is like a ghetto/trailer park version...
[Nexus 5 General] jags_the1:
So based on your experience you generalize it for everyone else. how smart.

but regardless. this phone is bang for the bucks.

Can people stop opening new threads about nexus 5 experience because there already is a thread and if each of us opened a new thread as soon as we got the phone then I think xda servers would be down. Thanks.
[Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] raero:
Howto continue disassembly of Samsung Galaxy S4 mini to replace Touch Screen Assembly

Dear Repairs Universe Team,

thank you for this excellent guide and the detailed photos provided!

I have, however, a question about continuing the assembly of the Samsung Galaxy S4 mini on order to perform the complete glass/screen and digitizer replacement.

After purchasing the "Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini LCD & Touch Screen Assembly - Black Mist" from your online shop and watching the corresponding disassembly video guide posted on the same site, it seems to me that the process is not completed yet.

Judging from similar videos about the 'not mini' Samsung Galaxy S4, it seems to be necessary to use a heat gun to soften the glue of the old glass/screen and digitzier in order to remove it from the plastic frame of the phone.

Is this correct?

Would it be possible for you to add this part of the disassembly process in order to help with caveats such as heat limitations of the components and menu/home/back button disassemby?

Thanks again for your help!

I recently bought the Samsung Note 3 Flip Wallet and i was wondering if you could fold the flap (The side with the card slot) behind the phone

so you can have both hands on the device other than holding it with your right hand and holding the flap with your left. Im just curious if the case will still close in the future if i continue to fold and break in the leather to fold the other way

Any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] pnnorth:
That's how I use mine and haven't had any problems.

If I've been using it like that for a while I tend to place the phone face down (case closed) for a few minutes and that seems to be enough to reset the crease the other way.
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dexx3000:
Hello there, I bought a wallet cover to my Lumia 920 (if needed, google it, i couldn't post the link) and I wanna know if there's any way to lock/unlock the screen without pressing any button, just openning/closing the cover. Maybe something that works with call sensor that turns the screen off when near the ear.

Well, this would be amazing.

Thanks !
[Windows Phone 8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GoodDayToDie:
No. Not only would that require that the proximity sensor be continuously active, it would also mean that, if your phone was (for example) sitting next to you on the desk the way mine is, every tim my hand moved past it in range of the sensor it would come on. This would be quite bad for battery life.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] olek_wal:
Hey there,

I am an active reader of this forum for 4 years now - thank you for all the information - and have a uncommon problem with my nexus 4,

yesterday i upgraded my purity rom to the actual build and have no cellular connection since then 8excuse me for my english right away)

What seems to be a trivila problem is kinda tricky (of course a looked a lot for possible causes and resolves in the forum).

the problem is: i have flashe the actual bootloader, radio and made a factory image flash and my nexus is working when on stock rom.

but when i flash a custom rom - i tried purity, psx and cm 10.1 - the cellular connectivity and in some cases wifi is gone. once i flash the factory image everything is fine again.

can you imagine a possible explanation?

one more information: when flashing the new purity update, i accidentally flashed not the current one, but the 2 month old version... but i allready made a clean-flash, wiping everything and flashing just the rom.

i'm on the most recent bootloader, radio und cwm-recovery

Any idea? Thanks in advance...

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro Software Upgrading] Melty:
Hi,

When I received my Exec at the end of last week I opted for a corporate installation. I was somewhat surprised to be asked for a code (which I have since discovered ought to be 0506) and so I entered 0000 and it then installed straight away without telling me if that was correct or not.

Please can someone tell me what is meant to happen after you enter the code? Does it say anything else before installing? What should the device look like after this has been done? I assumed I had guessed correctly since it didn't tell me that 0000 was wrong. Now I'm not so sure... :?

Also, does anyone know if there are any other codes (other than 0506) that would elicit a different response (i.e. install different stuff)? Or is 0506 a standard code to unlock the corporate installation? If so, why didn't it tell me I was wrong and give me another chance or something?
