Battery not charging?

I have clean installed June 10th thru June 16th builds and keep getting stuck with battery discharging issue even though the cable and charger are plugged in and working perfectly. First boot the circle around battery will keep on rotating and then will stop in about 5 minutes. I thought this was an issue with one of the builds but during the day I kept on changing builds to no avail.

As a test I reinstalled WebOS at one point and upon booting into WebOS allows the battery to charge and shows as increasing making me beleive that there is something that I am missing or the builds have stopped showing battery charging animation.

I have used jcsullins tptoolbox utility each time to clean install cm-11 versions. I even flashed A6 firmware and still the battery stays at 37% and discharging with barrell connected. Keeping it plugged in works all too well and it never changes the percentage. Battery monitor shows as discharging however mA shows as 0 (zero).

Does anyone else having this issue, or have suggestion on what settings I might be missing?

Thanks in advance.

Reading the OP generally saves having to ask questions. It states it is a Datamedia build.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Unlike other CM11 data/media Roms, this one cannot see the old legacy/media SD card. You have to use recovery or WebOS to see and move files to and from that partition. Mpgrimm2 documented this in his thread on installing data/media Roms:

Milaq’s CM11 Data Media (3.0 Kernel) 02-10-14 Build

Only see’s internal Sdcard ( /data/media/0 )

OTG works but has same OTG ID pin activation bug as JC’s CM10.1 3.0 kernel Test

I have done some searching but haven't managed to find anything relevant, so here's my question.

Does anyone use and have problems with chrome beta? I 've had problems with all the nightlies I have tried, even after a clean install. Now, I have tried with jcsullin's toolbox, removed webos and flashed clean but still the problem persists. Is this a known issue or should I provide a logcat?
[TouchPad Development] jerryatherton:
I have had problems with Chrome Beta on most of my devices. I gave u and quit using it.
[TouchPad Development] icy_gt:
Ok thanks.. But if I was to use the touchpad toolbox to move all the media space to the sdcard would it ever be needed if i was to switch back to a datamedia rom.. Wouldnt it say i have no space left in media and possibly cause problems ?
[TouchPad Development] etibon:
I have exactly the same problem.

In fact I have been suspecting that my charger is at fault because I'm not using the genuine HP charger.

I have been having this problem for quite some time (ever since I upgraded to Kitkat) and I also tried a clean install with jcsullins' toolbox.

It's basically driving me up the wall right now. If anybody has a solution it would really save me some grief :) .

I've installed the last night build and sometimes (I cannot find a way to replicate it) when I wake up the touchpad it doesn't require any security code (I have "pin", but the same happens also with "pattern" and probably others). When I enter the menu with all the apps and go back to the home screen then it asks it.

This is obviously a huge security problem
[TouchPad Development] apicia:
This does this occasionally with my stock Toshiba tablet. It's not rooted or anything. I use pattern lock and sometimes when I unplug it from the charger, the homescreen pops up and no lock screen. Great security!

[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
Not sure what you mean by moving back to a data media ROM. This is a data media ROM and when you install it the purpose is to move most but not all of the memory used by the media partition over to the data partition for use by the data media rom and SD card. Even when using touchpad toolbox to install Android, a certain amount of memory is left in the media partition because touchpad toolbox needs that memory to be able to install Android on your touchpad after WebOS is removed. And if you don't remove WebOS, you still need to erase everything from the media partition SD card/USB drive because touchpad toolbox is going to move a majority of the memory from the media partition over to the data partition. The trick is to leave a reasonable amount of space behind in the media partition so WebOS is still able to function.

Resolved for now

Hi there,

I resolved this in this manner.

- Power off the TP and let it charge

- Power up and let it sit at TWRP while still plugged in - you should see 98%+ or any other number depending on charge (observer '+' symbol after the battery percentage indicating charging)

- Let it complete its charge to 100% - at this point the '+' symbol will go away

- Reboot and put TP in WebOS recovery mode (big USB symbol)

- Run TPtoolbox and flash A6 firmware

- Reboot to CM-11 and you should see the battery charging and circle animation going on till its 100% again - at that point it'll show lightening bolt with circle animation stopped​

I did this test twice and without applying A6 firmware I end up with same issue.

See if this helps. I am going to let the battery run down during the day to confirm that the charging indeed works.
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
SOD problems

I was experiencing SOD random problems. I fixed it by going into Webos and using the term editor to reflash the A6 firmware. I had done it months ago but apparently it needs to be reflashed periodically.
[TouchPad Development] johnsmith33584:
The A6 chip is like the battery charging and control circuit for the battery. Unless your battery is causing you to experience random SOD's, I see no reason flashing the firmware would help. But if you think it does, no harm done reflashing it from time to time.
[TouchPad Development] XL3N7:
Ok, a small update to this. I have indeed tried regular chrome and it works fine but I have also tried troubleshooting chrome beta and it seems to be a memory issue (OOM) in the logcat. In the meantime, I have tried switching to art and chrome beta is running fine with no issues, possibly even better than regular chrome. Can this be due to development for the future art switch?
[TouchPad Development] Moody66:
Well it is Beta. You can expect issues. And since you are running it on an unsupported device I wouldn't sweat it to much.
[TouchPad Development] etibon:
I tried this and, unfortunately, it didn't work in my case. I'm glad it worked for you though. Unless anybody has any other suggestions I am starting to think that it's time to retire the trusty old Touchpad.
[TouchPad Development] vi6s:
Hello,

I am running the latest build of 06/21/2014. So far eveything has been very smooth and fluid. Amazing ROM for an old tablet device. But, I have a small request for the developer. Currently, my screen launcher only allows a 5 rows and 5 columns of icons for a total of 25 icons on the main screen. There is enough room on either side for 2 more columns to make a 5 rows and 7 columns screen for a total of 35 icons. Also, on the bottom bar, you can add 2 more icons to allow maximum of 9 icons instead of 7. Just a small suggestion, other than that, this ROM is perfect for the HP touchpad.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
What are you using, Trebuchet? Try Go Launcher or ADW Launcher. Much more configurable and user friendly. If you want to continue using Trebuchet, why don't you why don't you try stacking like apps in folders. You do know how to create them, right? That will free up space on the main menu. And you can have as many menu screen as you want.
[TouchPad Development] vi6s:
I am using the stock CM 11 Trebuchet launcher. Yes, I know you can use another launcher but I just prefer stock for its simplicity. Yes, I know how to create folder. I think you can change the lay out also by using Xposed Installer and a lanucher module. My comment above is a suggestion to improve the layout of the launcher for the touchpad. I think the 5x5 layout is due to the small dpi of the touchpad so it uses the same layout as the Nexus 7, despite being a 9-10 inch tablet. Not sure if milaq still works on this ROM or not since the last commit is over a month ago but I think he can definitely tweak the layout to improve it.
[TouchPad Development] cdzo72:
What you want to do makes no sense... you might as well go to the app drawer of you want to have that many icons on your home page.
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
Yesterday after sitting overnight on the touchstone charger my Touchpad would not wake up. After a 30 second double key hard boot it came up with the battery symbol with the question mark in the middle even though the battery is fully charged. After another hard boot it finally went to the boot loader. Any suggestions welcome. It also will just hank up in the middle of an app and require a reboot and then work normal.

There is a patch for Trebuchet that is being worked on that allows users to change the grid size.

http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/66105/

It's description is:

Customizeable Dynamic Grid:

- Presets

- Comfortable (+0)

- Cozy (+1)

- Condensed (+2)

- Custom option with min, max

Reordering items in the settings pane for better organization

Modifying Settings Layout for readability

Once this is merged you will have your wich for adjustable grid size. Nobody knows how long it will take to be merged but senior CM members are working on it.

[TouchPad Development] sstar:
sorry I can't answer as I don't use Netflix.
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
I tried the 6/21 build and Netflix did not work. It is all garbled and never clears up, like it did previously in 4.4.2. I'm falling back to an early June build.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
You never mention if you have flashed the A6 firmware. Are you monitoring your battery usage and performance with Battery Monitor Widget? How does your TouchPad behave using WebOS? Have you tried installing a different Rom? How about a complete Android removal and clean install?
[TouchPad Development] reynoben:
Seldom use Netflix myself but have seen enough posts about it. My understanding is the old Netflix version 1.8.1 works just fine and is included in the OP of Flintman's thread. So I suppose you could use the new 4.4.4 build with the old version of Netflix.
[TouchPad Development] johnbelloh:
I solved all the problems by using tailor to give some memory back to Webos and deleting some files on Android. I had originally installed CM 11 with a clean install . I have this 32 GB Touchpad loaded to the hilt. Thanks for the great ROM and your help.
[TouchPad Development] vi6s:
Netflix works with every build since milaq fixes it a while ago. The video might look like garble the first 30 seconds. But after 30 seconds, it will appear normal and play fine. Try it on your device or you can revert to an older build of Netflix, which will work without any problem.

reg. netflix:

we don't have it here in germany so it is really hard for me to say anything about any issue with netflix.

all i see is that every streaming app just runs fine on multiple platforms and devices all over xda and only netflix is always a broken piece of crap.

it seems like they are 'fixing' (read: breaking) stuff with every update they push.

issues users are having are most commonly not not tied to tenderloin only but to all older devices.
[TouchPad Development] theechap:
I downloaded the 6/25 build and it still has a garbled picture for 20 seconds or so and then it clears up. The build I was running from a few days earlier never cleared up so this is definitely doable for me.

And yes, a brief check in Maps showed my location so that seems to be fixed. Thanks Milaq for all your hard work!
[TouchPad Development] airtower:
The grid size changes weren't what I was expecting. The margin on the homescreens are still far too large. The commited changes only effect how many icons you can put inside those margins. I believe this is something the HPTP guys themselves are going to have to address, and not the CM team at large.
[TouchPad Development] vi6s:
Yeah. I was not impressed with the changes either. I mean the ability to change grid lay out features is awesome, but the margin on both side is still the same. That was what I was hoping for the most, to fill up the wide margins on both sides in landscape mode. Let hope milaq or anybody has time to work on this. Not a big deal but makes the appearance better.
[TouchPad Development] nevertells2:
HPTP guys? Just exactly who are they? Just wondering.:)
[TouchPad Development] vi6s:
Milaq, the main developer for this rom. You go to his site to download the rom. I think jcsullins and invisiblek also. There are more but those are the main ones I think.

[TouchPad Development] green2000:
Big thanks for this ROM. I was running Maliq's CM 10.2 for a long time. Decided to take the plunge to CM 11. Used TPToolbox and completely wiped everything and installed latest 6/27 build. Worked perfect. Had to let it sit for a while to settle down and install updates in the background. Was a nice surprise to see it was Kitkat 4.4.4.

Now I just need to figure out how to get it to mount the sdcard on the PC to copy some files back. Currently each time I connect it, it thinks it is a 'Google Nexus ADB Interface', which was probably installed because of my Nexus4. No drive gets mounted. Any tips to get it to realize it isn't my N4? I have USB connection set to MTP.

Thanks.

Been running this ROM(06/26) for a few days now. Works well. A few stability problems where the UI gets really slow or it doesn't register touch on an app all of a sudden. But sounds like everyone else has these few issues as well.

My main question is app compatibility. There are apps I used to run that the play store says I can't anymore because it is not compatible. Maybe I had modified the model type to fake out the play store. Do people still do that? I don't remember the app name anymore or the model to choose.

Thanks.

After running Oat's 10.1 on the TP for a year or two, I successfully upgraded to Milaq's CM11 (thanks to JC Sullin's amazing TP Toolbox). I need to let things settle in and learn the ROM but so far everything is running smoothly and its great to have available space. I may miss the WebOS but having a fully functioning TP is great.

One small challenge I am going to overcome... while Bluetooth paired right away with a Monster Clarity HD external speaker it doesn't seem to recognize the HP TouchPad bluetooth external keyboard (LOL... makes sense it would struggle with another HP product).

Despite that I am extremely happy and appreciative. Many thanks to Milaq, JC, and the entire TouchPad community!! :good:

Bad Battery Drain

I'm on the 6/25 build and everything was fine. My battery drain on sleep would average -8 or so. But a few days ago, it got really bad and I can't get it to go back. Now during sleep it drains anywhere from -170 to over -200. I've rebooted it numerous times and reflashing the A6 chip to no avail. I know they just updated Google Play Services to v5. I'm wondering if that is the culprit. Is anyone else having these issues?
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Happy to report that NetFlix works on my TP. I tried unsuccessfully earlier but my wifi must have been too weak. I just tried again and except for the commonly reported garble at the very start of a movie the picture and sound comes through clean.

I also did some research and it appears the HP TouchPad bluetooth keyboard has been a problem for a while. I haven't seen anyone report success or possible fixes. Seems a shame... and irony that the keyboard works fine with my new Nexus 7 (stock) but not with the TP (I know, it was a webOS tablet and worked great with the TP back then); I intend to buy a Minisuit keyboard/case for the Nexus but I am afraid it will be too small/unsuited for the TP.

Any advice on what to do to see and pair the HP keyboard to the TP would be much appreciated.
[TouchPad Development] Nomad1600:
Perhaps this is a generic question and belongs elsewhere, but, previously TouchPads running various Androids had a problem that if the battery went too low the tablet was bricked (or at least had a really bad problem). As a result there were a few tools or apps that were applied that would shut the tablet down when it hit a low threshold so the tablet never really got to 0%.

Its been a long time since I applied that tool, so I don't even recall its name or how I even flashed it. And I don't recall if it was a problem caused by adding Android, or dual-booting Android and webOS, or something else. Or whether the problem was solved by later ROMs.

The question: since I used TP Tool that wiped everything clean off the old TP, and I didn't see a battery protecting tool reinstalled... is the battery still a problem and does a similar tool need to be re-installed? If so, can someone point me to such a tool?

Thanks in advance!!
[TouchPad Development] sstar:
I believe all the current roms automatically shutdown when the battery level hits 3% but if you want to bullet proof yourself you can install Automatelt from Google play store and set a higher level, that's what I do as it helps me sleep better..
