Upside down Magnetic Charger Cable

Hi,

I'm facing the same issue. Did you find a solution to your problem? What did you do to fix it?
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] jcsy:
Some one swapped used the magnetic charger on reverse

It shut down his phone. He didn't notice. He left it there over night. It damaged his battery so badly that it would only charge up again go 4%

Just don't do it

Don't buy those terrible 2€ cables. Good cables can't be plugged in in the wrong direction!
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] b3@ns:
For issues when plugging the usb will make the phone unusable due to unexpected behavior.

I plugged in the magnetic charger while usb cable was plugged.

It will make the phone usable.

Not sure about the consequences when plugging both, Do it at your discretion.
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] scarshi:
Same here also. Phone won't shut down properly now. It just reboots and bootloops. Need to hold down up volume and power to reset then press power to restart properly. Made the mistake of trying to connect my phone at night without looking at the phone and had it upside down and backwards. Luckily I had to get up shortly after and realised my mistake. The battery charges but only by usb cable now, and even that is twitchy. I'm thinking of replacing the battery myself. Not sure if my magnetic charger assembly is damaged as well as the battery. Thinking of buying a new magnetic charger, battery, back cover and adhesive all together to cover all my bases. Not sure if worth the effort if the bootloops are software related (already flashed new ftf files and started from scratch - didn't work).

Sigh ...
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] gilmerio:
The solution is replacement...

I reached out to SONY and it seems that when you invert the magnetic charger there is an IC on the MB that gets fried. You need to return the phone to them (Obviously not telling them that you inverted the charger - since it won't be covered under warranty then) and say something like the phone isn't charging using my magnetic charger. (The folks at the India - Mumbai service center were ridiculous and had no knowledge whatsoever about the magnetic charger, so I gave them my charging cable as well), overall it took them 10 -15 days and i had my phone back with a brand new Motherboard.

Hope that helps!

Same with me.. but my phone cant on..cant connect pc & not charging if i charge with usb.. what should i do?? Pls help me
[Xperia Z1 Accessories] KouenHasuki:
Yea this is the one time I would say its best to go with official Sony stuff here.

too much risk with the cheaper clone ones that you use like a cable since its sometimes anyone's guess which way its supposed to go and if you have plugged it in wrong enough times maybe the battery has gotten messed up or worse the charging circuit.

Id first try a backup full charge and fresh start of the rom just in case there is some sort of battery calibration in there, if that doesn't solve it then it could need service :(

hello i tried a mgnetic addaptor for microUSB cables witch when attached coud not hold but had a mark on witch way is up. When i inserted the addaptor the wrong way the phone gave a black screen and needed a reboot once i didnt notice that it is the wrong whay and it didnt whant to charge unless i let it fully discharge and then use the original microUSB cable and worked fine after that. I whanted a magnetic cabel for my phone but coudnt afford the verry verry expensive Sony OEM cabel (its worth more than 50 USD whare i live) so i both this guy http://www.geekbuying.com/item/Magn...-for-Sony-Xperia-Z3-Z2-Z1---Black-338682.html works like a charm is cheep and free delivery (to verywhare) and its hard to plug it in the wrong way as it is not semetric.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Nikkiekoala:
I just got the new galaxy note along with a Samsung cover. I plan on using the tablet for reading (along with other things) . I can't seem to get the screen to rotate to the left to portrait mode in some apps like the Kindle app. It will rotate to the right but with the cover it feels unnatural not to mention the buttons end up on the left making it easy to accidently hit them while holding the tablet. How do I get it to rotate to the left in the Kindle app?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] matsuru:
Try GMD autorotate app. I can set it to rotate into any directions I want and I also has per app rotation settings.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Nikkiekoala:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevingt01:
I've been having power issues with my AT&T Note 2 (draining battery when completely off, wouldn't start after changing batteries without first plugging into USB). I swapped the USB charging port with no luck. Reverted to old backup I took which didn't solve the problem either. And lastly, I started to wipe it and revert to a factory image. Aftering wiping data, system, cache, etc. my phone is stuck on the battery logo screen (no animation). It won't boot into download or recovery. I tried a homemade jig which isn't working.

I have about a year left on contract. It was refurbished and has no warranty left. I have a couple questions:

1. Should I try a jig from amazon? I'm not seeing any specifically stating they'll work with the Note 2.

2. If I've hosed bootloader or have a hardware issue, what's the chance a new mainboard will fix it? (is the internal memory part of the mainboard?)

3. Should I see if I can find a repair shop that will use jtag or something similar to salvage it?

4. Do I sell it for parts (hoping I'd get ~$200 since the display and glass are in good condition) and buy a nexus 5?

5. Any other suggestions?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] gregsarg:
Send it to ...

Mobiletechvideos.com

And have them fix it...(Google their website for info..)

Then ....when the device comes back...

Read the process of rooting and flashing at least 100 times ...so you can remember the proper steps...because after seeing your post...it is quite apparent that you don't know what you are doing....???

I don't mean to sound harsh...but dang dude...you've messed it up pretty good...

We see countless users get excited and jump in head first trying every possible mod under the sun...

Only to realize that the wrong steps were taken and the wrong software was used..

Each user has a personal responsibility to learn and understand the basics before asking for help or advice ..

Remember ...this is a development site that lives on the edge of code modification...and if not used with some prudence and wisdom ends up costing a lot of time and money...

I can't tell you what to do...only you can decide that...but honestly...you need to learn the basics "before" jumping in and toasting a $700.00 device...IMHO ...g
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] RoninTPD:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] 210euser:
It seems the repair shop is the only way
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] Keithgordon:
There is hope, you can take the shoot.bin from the update and put it in a tar file with the files from the old stock tar and flash it. I had the same problem and did this for the sprint version and completely downgraded, boot loader and all. You can find the info on the sprint version. You can email me at keithgordon66 [MENTION=5499064]gmail.com[/MENTION] and I'll give you my number so you can call me and I can talk you through it, its easy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] kevingt01:
I was finally able to get it into download mode by removing the battery, plugging it into my laptop via USB, and doing the normal 3 button combo. Flashed the stock ROM with these instructions: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2275844 (what I was trying to do when it apparently died on me).
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] steveojp:
Hi!!

Only reason I have right now to root is to uninstall these stock apps my phone came with. Is there anyway to do it without a root? Or do I need to root it?? I'm currently on MI1..if I do need a root which one is a good tut to follow. Is it better to update fully to MJ7 then root? Just trying to see what's best.

Let me know

Thank you!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] wtherrell:
I believe that there is root method for MI1 but not a safe one for MJ7 so I would not update.
[PAC Q&A] topgunner222:
I recently had some issues with my GPS so I used Odin to go back to stock firmware, everything was still ok after this and my GPS was back to working order. Then I used CF auto root to root my device again/use TWRP recovery. Then I flashed the latest PAC nightly and gapps with seemingly no problems. The phone worked fine for 2-3 days until one day when it was in my pocket I got a warning saying something along the likes of "SIM card has been removed. Reboot required." Rebooting would make the sim come back online momentarily until it would randomly come back up. There didn't seem to be any correlation with any new apps I had installed or things I did on my phone to cause this error. I thought perhaps it was the ROM so I tried reflashing (complete with factory wipe) and the problem still happened. I also tried wiping factory->system->cache&dalvik before reflashing..again it worked but only briefly. I tried going back to stock but it still happens. Right now I'm running task650s aokp and it still comes up..the sim works in other phones no problem. Any ideas on what might be going on/how to fix this issue?

My wife put her phone to charge as usual as soon as there were only 3% left and found it in an hour and a half turned off. now it does not turn on. What had happened? How to turn it on? I put it to charge some more, but nothing changes.

It was 100% stock recently updated to the latest FW via OTA.

What a hell???
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwheelies:
What is the charge percentage?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragon31337:
It was 13% before we plugged it in... Now it does not show anything, I cant turn it on. I've tried to charge it a home for 3+ hours, but nothing changed.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SupremeOverlord:
First try holding down the power button for 2 seconds. Let go and count to 2 again and re-press the power button for like 30 seconds.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 181charan:
Try holding down the down volume button and power button for a few seconds at the same time and release it and check if u enter the bootloader menu.. If that works then press the Volume up button to confirm the normal power up...
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragon31337:
I've tried all combinations, hold power, power + vol down, power + vol up, each up to 20 seconds. They were not able to turn it on in Verizon store as well. Luckily they just replaced it for me.

SO be careful with Droid minis...
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwheelies:
Did they plug it in in the store?
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dragon31337:
They tried as hard as the can but none of them in Verizon store was able to turn it on.

And yes, they tried plugging it to the energy bank and to the wall outlet.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bwheelies:
Hopefully by now you have a replacement.
[Droid Ultra Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melfunn:
Had a similar problem with my first maxx. After charging all night, unplugged phone and used it for 30 min. Picked it up, pressed power button and nothing. Plugged power cord to phone and moto icon would appear and disappear repeatedly. Plugged in moto factory cable from PC to phone and it booted up. Got a message saying phone would shut down in 10 sec. due to over heating. Either a bad battery causing problems or faulty circuitry.

Got a new phone overnighted.

I could swear at some point while setting up my phone I was asked to set the desired GPS accuracy. There were three options that varied by accuracy and battery consumption.

I can't remember where those settings were...

It's possible it was on my old phone (gnex w/ cm10.1), but I don't remember.

[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] Vulpix:
I never liked those thick glass protectors, so I opted for the Flex. I love the feel so far, it took about a day for the protector to "smooth out", and now it feels great, like a decent glass SP with the layer still on.

Nope, so far there's no problem. Then again it's just 2 weeks of use.
[Galaxy Note 3 Accessories] flipq88:

Hi All,

I broke my poor N4's back glass, and recently purchased a replacement back cover. Once it arrived, one thing odd that struck me is that there's an extra "chip"(?) attached to it - that neither existed on the original nor in any photo i've seen. There are also some little plastic shards around it (please see attached photo.)

I am not one to say the government is tapping all of our phones, but I'd like to know what it is!

Does anyone know what it is?

[Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A] Notleading:
Hey all,

I'm having wifi problems after installing the KRT16S OTA, not with the wifi on the tablet, but the tablet is causing my router to not work.

I have a Comcast Xfinity Arris TG852G router/modem combo, which was working fine when my Nexus 7 had Android 4.3 and even when it had Android 4.4 (KRT160). Once I updated to KRT16S however, when attempting to connect to wifi, all other devices would get disconnected.

Even when not attempting to connect to the router (with the access point "forgotten"), if the wifi on the tablet is enabled, all other devices will continue to get disconnected.

When I look at the logcat, I notice the tablet attempts to connect to the mac address E8-89-2C-5D-E8-D0, which then gives this error:

11-24 20:18:54.428: I/wpa_supplicant(670): wlan0: CTRL-EVENT-DISCONNECTED bssid=e8:89:2c:5d:e8:d0 reason=15

When doing an "arp -a" on my computer however, the default gateway mac address is actually E8-89-2C-5D-E8-D1. For some reason the tablet is trying to connect to the wrong mac address, and this is causing the router to drop all the connected devices.

I've tried everything including factory resetting the router and tablet, but the problem persists.

Is anyone having the same/similar problem? Or have any idea on how to stop this from happening?

EDIT: Something interesting, in the router web interface, the mac address listed for the access point is actually E8-89-2C-5D-E8-D0, but the computer is connected to E8-89-2C-5D-E8-D1 and internet works fine, and the tablet tries to connect to E8-89-2C-5D-E8-D0, and fails and boots all other devices.

Thanks

Bought a nexus 5 and cut and pasted 6 lecture recordings from my old GS3 to my nexus 5. Rooted the nexus 5 and deleted (accidentally) all the recordings. Is there any data recovery program or tool that I can use to retrieve them?

So, ctrl+x from gs3 ext memory card to ctrl+p onto nexus 5 internal storage. Wiped nexus 5 and now can't be found anywhere.

These recordings are extremely important (I know I lost them, I dont know what I was thinking)...any ideas/help?

Thank you very much
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OffcerClancy:
I don't know the specifics of the S3 or Nex 5, but if they can be read by Windows as a data drive rather than a media drive (as is case w/gal nex), there are a number of PC programs that will recover.

In either case, this summer I lost approx 14 gig of vid files. Hexamob Recovery was the only apk program that successfully recovered some files. You should be aware that chances of full vs partial recovery of a file and recovery of all files is probably less than 50-50.

Good luck.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] x3malex:
So, rather than looking for the recordings on the SD card I actually used a data recovery program on my recorder... I think I found all of them although they're unlabelled. What's creepy is that it recovered recordings from classes over 2 years ago... Go figure

I see a lot of talk about bigger, but I'm thinking bigger ≠ better, or else LG's engineers would have set compression differently. Something in the tune of 2% subjective improvement with a 80% increase of file size isn't worth it either.
