re: volts

You would need about a 500 feet of wire or cable to lose 2 volts out of 3.7 volts. LOL

All chargers only use and only has two wires, a volt+ and a volt-

There is no such thing as usb cables wired differently for charging.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] rmm200:
I realize there is a lot of ignorance in the world. We cope as we can. Just search xda for USB fast charge.

Perhaps you missed the part of the statement which referred to "copper." Some imitations using other conductive materials have resistivity as much as 30 times that of copper.

i think you are ???????????????????????

yes there is cables for charge only cable

you may please understand if the charger have 2 amp , phone is capable to take 1.5 amp but the cable .....

in this condition if the cable is not good one the phone will not get the correct amp but it will give the correct volt you can check your self

like this drain the phone to 10% put it in to off condition then charge it with a 2 amp charger with good cable (Samsung 2 amp charger cable or original charger cable of Htc ) switch on and check after 10 minute do this with cheep china made cable then you will get the result :silly::mad:

Opinions are often spoken as facts on the Internet.

The quality of the cable has a drastic affect on the charge rate. I can prove it with Screenshots if any of you would like.

Verify the charge rate using this app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free

While travelling in the Philippines and Thailand I found very VERY many fake Samsung chargers and fake Samsung cables that could only output low MA during the charge cycle. Since then I've been searching for inexpensive cables and chargers that can run at the full 1900ma as indicated by the above mentioned app.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] KCRic:
Very true. They can also trash a battery. Our OE charger has a chip (I think its really a resistor) that aids the phone in controlling the current. It provides a steady current to the phone, then the phone lowers it to something within the batteries specs. Then again, the battery itself has a resistor also. Its all meant to give a steady current at the right voltage/amps. What comes out of your electrical outlets and car charger ports isn't steady.

This is where a "good" charger comes in. A crap one will not level the current and it'll fluctuate constantly. This causes bad/dead cells, swelling, overheating, ruptures, or even fires and explosions.

Sometimes even using a charger meant for another phone will mess things up. It won't hurt the battery usually but it'll cause random reboots and the real vs assumed charge will be way off. There's a lot more that goes on when charging these phones than simple + and - terminals moving electrons between an anode and cathode. :rolleyes:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4] ctrlaltdeln:
First, the cable makes a HUGE difference. Get " current widget " from play store. I use "portapow" cables from amazon. From the same charger, I get 1.3 milliamps from portapow cables, and .75 milliamps from stock data/charging cables. You will never get the full 2 amps from stock charger. But I swear by these cables.

Hi all,

I tried doing some quick searching on google and on xda but haven't been able to find the solution to this issue.

Suddenly today, I've been getting alerts when I'm browsing the internet on chrome, some prompting me to click OK or Cancel, some only giving me the OK button as an option. Instead of pressing those buttons, I try to press my back key. However, no matter what I do, it tries to redirect me to a website to download a mobogenie_(insert string of numbers).apk file.

These alerts have showed up on a variety of websites that I've been on, usually after I've been on the page for a few minutes.

Could it be a possible malware issue? I downloaded Ad Network Detector and Malwarebytes to scan my phone, but nothing seems to show up...

I can attach a screenshot of one of the alerts if it helps to solve it.

Squaretrade

I've used them for my Nexus 7 and they were pretty fast in resolving the claim. Their price on smartphones seems kinda high including the deductible (it's half the cost of a new 32GB Nexus) so I passed on it.

*I did get a coupon for 30% off... even then I felt it was too pricey.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ComposMentis:
That price is absurd ($125 for two years with $99 deductible). Most repairs cost less than the plan + deductible. Assuming the most common claim is a cracked screen this plan is a ripoff. Squaretrade used to be a good deal.

If you have either homeowners insurance or renters insurance, ask your company if they cover phones as an "additional insured" item. Mine does, and covers the full amount of the phone with no deductible for $7 per YEAR. I've only had to use it once in the past, but it's great for those who are careful with their phones but just want that extra security. HTH.

[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindracer:
I have a Telus Galaxy Note 3 N900W8. It has APN settings by default for sp.telus.com, which are all greyed out.

It has isp.telus.com, which I want to use (I'm using a data-only plan/sim card), but I cannot select it.

I added a new APN and replicated the isp.telus.com, but apparently by looking at my billing I was started to get charged lots of money, and the new APN I added is gone (I'm assuming due to a reboot!).

I do not want to root my phablet, and I'm thinking of sending it back. Apparently rooting sets off a trip counter. Is rooting the phone the only way to fix my problem, actually most importantly, can I fix this default APN stuff and greyed out stuff if I root my phone?

Any help is appreciated
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] radicalisto:
Had a similar issue on my SM-9005 - Can't edit the APN settings, when I add a new one, it vanishes after a short period. -- Thinking that the device reads the sim for data info directly and pulls from it? - however the mystery of the vanishing APN I have no clue about.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindracer:
Still looking for a solution.. Let me describe my problem again:

So I have a Telus Galaxy Note 3 (I paid full price), and I got a tablet only plan from TELUS.

Problem is, when I put the SIM card in my phone, it defaults to sp.telus.com, and doesnt allow me to switch to isp.telus.com.

I have to manually add a new APN with isp.telus.com, or else im charged outrageous charges. Even worse, sometimes the new APN gets deleted and switches back to sp.telus.com ($$$$).

I unlocked my phone and put a bell SIM card in it, and it goes to pda.bell.ca (apparently the tablet only plan is on pda2.bell.ca, so im assuming i have to do the same thing).

Have anyone been through the same thing, any tips? Do i have to completely root my phone and put another ROM like cyanogenmod to solve this problem? (I dont really wanna lose all my S-Note features though..)

I looked for apps, and apparently no apn apps exist anymore.

At the very least i need a widget or something that writes my APN on the homescreen so i can verify if im on the wrong APN often.

Help!
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pow35:
you can try to use this code...

*#272*IMEI#

Replace the imei in red with your imei number of your phone.

As soon as you press dial, it will show you a selection of APN network. Look for the one you wish to use but... this will FACTORY RESET your Phone.

I had Telus and wanted to have Koodo for network... so I chose the koodo one and now every time I put the sims in it loads koodo network apn

Hope this helps...

Do some more reserch if you're not sure.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindracer:
I'd be willing to reset my phone, but I can't get to that menu. It says USSD connecting then I get invalid connection MMI, tried many times and different ways. Did you do this on a Telus Note 3?
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pow35:
Yes... Bought a SM-N900W8 from TELUS which used the Telus APN...

TYPED IN the phone dial pad... *#272*000000000000000# (replace 0's with your IMEI number.)

You should then see a screen as shown below.

Just make sure you see the one you need before you do anything.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mindracer:
Cool thanks it worked! You just gave me a workaround. If i put the telus one, it still defaults to the Telus SP apn.. So im gonna install the bell one and manually add my telus ISP apn, that way ill never end up on sp.telus.com!

I think i might switch to bell data flex plan, only if it uses the default APN set (i think pda.bell.ca).. I just got to find out what apn their tablet flex plan uses
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pow35:
Happy to see that it helped you somehow.

Good idea to do it via Bell.

There is a way to add an APN to the script but I am not confident enough on a linux system.

I'm sure someone could show you how if possible, then it would show potentially on the *#272*# Code.

I have bought an HTC Sensation Xe before almost 1 year.And it's already upgraded to the version ICS.But since i had this phone,it has many problems like: It's too slow when i work on it,sometimes it restarts or stop to work with HTC and whit screen and then it's written "loading" and i have to wait about 1 minute and finally i have to restart it after some days because it freezes completely.

So,i heard from many people that if i downgrade it to the version: Ginger bread,it will be great and will work very well!

1) Does anyone know what can I do to be able to use any buttons with a Jasjar closed?

I tend to use it as a MP3 player and I'm using XDA II headset with two buttons which I assign to "pause" and "next track", but unfortunately as soon as I close the JJ (with the screen hidden) they stop to work, even without pressing the power off button.

I don't want to use screen protector coz one of the reasons why I bought it is beatiful display so I would like to keep it closed when I carry it in my pocket.

2) Is the synchronisation working only with the USB 2.0 ports? I'm using the USB Hub which unfortunately is only 1.0 and the PC doesn't recognize JJ, I have to connect it directly to USB 2.0 port to make it visible.

3) Is there any way to remove the line above the two function buttons at the bottom of the screen? I mean the one with icons for screen rotation and wireless manager. I never use these icons anyway and I'd rather have more room for the appointments.

I have ZOPO ZP980 2G/32G MTK6589T with build number 20130818 - 173942. In fact it is B version.

Due to some error on 3G Network, a friend advice to down grade and flash with 20130610 build number, and I was succeed to downgrade.

But looks by downgrading is not giving better solution with 3G Network issue.

Then I decide to upgrade OTA to the latest version as installed today.

Now, I want to try to find the solution if installing customs ROM can solve my 3G Network issue.

Kindly please to help in more detail what is the procedure for installing customs ROM?. Which custom ROM is applicable for my ZOPO ZP980?

In case failure or not succeed, can I back to my original ROM?
