[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HiddenG:
I'm not too sure if it'll work, but please try this. Turn your Nook off completely. Now, insert your charger cable and your Nook should display a green light, and momentarily it should turn amber/orange. When it's green, as soon as it turns orange, immediately hold the Power button down until your Nook turns on. It should then stay in an amber state and hopefully charge your Nook.

Please let me know if this works; it did for me when I had a faulty Nook. My Nook actually stopped working shortly after, and I had to get a replacement. :(

All the best.

Hi hiddenG,

thanks for the try, but unfortunately it did not work. The second the screen comes to life with the charging indicator, the charging light goes back to green and shortly after the screen goes off and the flickering light is back.

I'm starting to get used to the fact, that I have to wait till my next trip to the US and exchange the Nook.

Over a decade ago, I used to have a Creative Zen MP3 player. Their batteries were notorious for going into deep discharge if the player lay dormant for a long time so that you could not charge them anymore. This happened to me on a few occasions. The first time it happened, I went searching for solutions and one of the suggestions was to put the battery in the freezer for awhile. I guess I left it in there for at least an hour, if not longer. Lo and behold, I was able to charge the battery after it came out of deep freeze! When fully charged, that battery had plenty of life left in it too.

If I recall correctly, the second time the Zen's battery went into deep discharge, I tried the freezer trick again and it did not work the second time. But I was able to use another trick I read about involving a mobile phone charger to jump start it. However that second trick involved having direct access to the battery's electrical connectors, so it is not applicable to the Nook tablets. But you might want to try the freezer trick if you've exhausted everything else. If you do, be sure you wrap up your nook first in some good zip lock plastic bags -- maybe double or triple wrapped -- to prevent any moisture from getting inside.

Try this at your own risk! I take no responsibility should your Nook suffer irreversible frostbite! :laugh:
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sputnik.:
Same problem here in Austria. The green then yellow light stays on, but the Nook is not charging/powering on. When it first happened the screen showed the broken battery symbol. Now the screen doesn't turn on at all anymore.

Edit: I just plugged it into another 1 amp wall charger and at least the screen showed the broken battery symbol again. So maybe the .5 amps of the USB port aren't enough to charge the Nook in this state.

Edit 2: I just charged it for an hour or so with the 1 amp charger. It booted up nicely again! So what we learn from this incident: The B&N wall charger is too weak to charge th eNook when the batteries are deeply discharged. Use a more powerful wall adapter.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] extrem0:
The Nook charger is 2amp. When you get your Nook device fully discharged you'll only need luck to turn it on again. It happened twice with me and I could turn it on again without needing to change the charger.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] detox1978:
You can jump start the nook from a discharged state. When you plug in the cable the charge light turns green, after 10 or so seconds it switches to orange. Unplug the power when it turns orange. This works ever time for me. You can plug the power back in a second or so.
[Nook HD, HD+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] marc70:
Hi everybody. If Nook is not charging. Green light all the time with Nook charger on. Solution that worked for me: Unplug Nook cable. Press power button and n button Nook for 10s. Nook swiches off from stand by mode. Plug back on charger.Then press power button. Light goes from green to amber then back to green. but quickly, Unplug cable and put it back. Amber light back and steady! Charging at last!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fattpacman:
Hi Guys,

I know this has sort of been asked a lot, but not in the same context/I have a twist!

Basically, I dropped my Nexus 4 the other day and the screen cracked. I went out and got the N5 the next day however I'm looking for a way to control my N4 so I can double check some of the settings and ensure I have pulled everything off it.

If I remember correctly I have ADB Debugging enabled and root access, and I read how to disable the lock screen and enable bluetooth, so I was wondering if there was a (free) way to turn my N5 into a bluetooth mouse which I can pair with the N4 and controll it that way.

Another way I was thinking of doing it was to somehow control the phone from my PC? Maybe find a way to emulate it from a nandroid backup or something? I'm not entirely sure of the best/easiest way of doing it.

But any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Dear All,

I am having Xperia Pro MK16i

I am having problem in battery percentage output shown by android system, after flushing custom kernal which is supplied with legacyXPERIA CM11 rom (no issue at this time) and than I return back to stock ICS kernal, the battery is showing always 100%. Even if I connect charger it shows me charged.

Before flushing legacyXPERIA CM11 kernal, I have tired so many different custom kernal but, I like CM10, 10.1, NaA 3.4.0 kernal and return back to stock ICS, I was not having this issue any time.

For recovery of this issue I have tried to flush again the legacyXPERIA CM11 kernal (it will show the correct battery percentage) and get back to stock ICS will agnain show battery 100%. Than I tried to flush jush my backuped stock GB rom (it will show the correct battery percentage) and get back to stock ICS will show correct battery percentage.

Also the important thing it that, I found that this problem is happening every time i remove the battery.

If any one can help me, please give your suggestions what to do.

Thanks in advance

[MENTION=4684574]chiragvagh[/MENTION] it's because of frequent ROM flashing. Flash stock ftf, give it a full charge, calibrate the battery and then reflash your desired ROM.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] ankurvij:
I have this issue several times and realised that flashing firmware will not help. Flashed different ROM no HELP, Flashed GB, ICS Fw no HELP.

Only thing helped me is changing the kernel - try anything except stock kernel. Hope this helps you :D

I got the monaco leather case for the 8125 from Extreme PDA:

http://www.extremepda.com/page/XPDA/PROD/cingular_8125_accessories/CING8125FLIPCASE

Even though a lot of people said they liked it and it seemed to be the most ideal for constant use, the bottom line is after a week I can't stand having it on my 8125. Here's what I realized:

- Even though it allows the keyboard to slide out, actually holding the device with the case flip behind it makes it tough to type comfortably.

- Folding back the flip every time I get a phone call and securing it in place is not practical.

- The cover inadvertantly causes the phone to either ignore or answer calls by applying pressure on the dial/hangup buttons. While this isn't an issue if the device is in standy, on an incoming call it is. Locking the device is useless because on an incoming call, the phone buttons are unlocked even if the device itself is locked.

After a week of this I finally gave up and took the 8125 out of the leather case. I am worried about it getting dropped/scratched but I just can't find a solution that's practical enough. How are the rest of you dealing with these issues?
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] devGOD:
yeah most people forget that it's a phone too and not just a pda. so having it in a case like that just makes it more work to answer calls and use the device.

I'm using the Mobile Glove Executice Black Tie Series holder. its a better design than the free case that comes with the 8125. The flap has a magnet in it so it closes really good. I bought it at a mall stand for $30 http://www.mobileglove.com/mobileglove.html it's design for the Treo 650 and similar handheld devices. it fits perfect
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] gmaugham:
I purchased this case and am very happy with it. I don't experience any of the issues described by devGOD. http://cgi.ebay.com/Deluxe-Leather-...ryZ15036QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

I've bought items from this person for other PDAs and highly recommend him. He also has some other cases for the 8125 available.

Leather Cases

Hi there. The case listed above was my third case for the 8125. So far I like it the most. This is why I am still looking for a case. Taking it off and putting it on the belt clip is somewhat of a hassle because of the placement of the snap that keeps the thing closed. It gets in the way and it's making it hard to grab the phone in time to answer the ring. Also, using the keyboard is a little akward while it's in the case. Just take it out when at home but when out and about it gets a little tedious.

My next purchase might be the holster but at $30 it's a bit pricy.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] scharnet:
Case to consider: Krusell Cabriolet

Here is what fit the bill for me.

http://sfplanet.com/product/87182

Use the phone/screen without any flaps. If you need to use the keyboard, it slides out easily. However, you can shake it upside down and it will stay put.

Krusell offers many choices for additional adaptors to fit your lifestyle. I bought and use their: Carabiner & Swivel Lanyard. I do like the belt clip one it came with - it is the easiest to remove that I've tried, but I don't like extra baggage around the waist.

Here is a link to a website that reviewed 8 cases.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Bitgod:
I'll look at one of those "deluxe leather cases" on ebay next. Just got a black metal PDAair case off ebay, trying it out. It's ok so far, not sure if it's a keeper. I'm used to having a metal case on my PDA, but I don't usually carry my PDA on my belt, so I'm not sure if I'll stick with it or go leather. I actually started to like the OEM pouch while I used it, but I want constant protection.

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] alexknutson:
out of my research, i'm beginning to believe that the case that offers the most protection, AND easy usage without much dabbling every time the phone rings seems to be:

can anybody post saying otherwise? I'm curious to see if anybody has tried it.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Bitgod:
I wish those had black stitching, but that case is most likely my next canidate if I try another one.

My black pdair metal case is doing ok, though I had my first drop today, the stupid stud unscrewed from the back of the case. I was kind of worried about that when I got it, the screw was awfully shallow.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] Halfhoff:
The best case is no case

Hi there:

I read the 8 case review and, after doing so, I purchased the Noreve model. It is a beautiful case. The problem is, for me, that I use my 8125 primarily as a phone, and then as a PDA. I also use it a fair amount with a GPS device. For the phone, I find it most useful OUT of the case. Or, sometimes, when it is in my car holder, it is also out of the case. When using GPS, it is out of the case (but secure).

The Noreve is beautifully made, but the 8125 inside of it is like a brick. I find it 'geeky' to use the case with the phone. In fairness, what I like about the Noreve is that the case folds BEHIND the unit when you are talking and therefore does not hang down like a big dog's tongue. You can also use the keyboard in the Noreve, but the device is not that securely inside of it.

The case I use almost everyday is a case I found on eBay. I prefer the horizontal case, although I believe there is a vertical model. It covers the device well enough, has holes for you to push the device out of the case while on your belt when the phone rings, and then allows you to easily slide the phone back in. The belt is secure, and it is fairly light weight. I used to carry my old iPaq in my suit pocket. The 8125 is just too heavy; it works much better on the waist.

It is cheap but durable and it works!

i ordered mine tonight. Given the insane amount of research ive done, i'm definitely sure this one is going to be the one with the least amount of risk to try. I'll let you guys know when all is said and done.
[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario Accessories] iclick:
Lex, I know what you mean about spending insanely long hours researching cases, as I just went through it. In a fashion uncharacteric of the way I usually work, I ended up buying four cases: Sena Form-fit, Krusell Cabriolet, Krusell Handit, and Piel Frama. The latter is the model with the strap that allows using the keyboard without removal from the case.

I read the 8-case review over and over, and still couldn't decide. The Krusells were cheap, so I bought two on Ebay for a total of $40. I found the Piel Frama on Ebay for $50. I decided to keep the Piel Frama and Handit. Here are some observations:

Sena Form-fit: Very well-made, but has one big flaw: The magnetic closure, which otherwise I like very much, causes the device to fall out if the case is inverted on the clip. In the first week the MDA fell out twice with no damage, so I sold the case. Also, the belt clip was backordered for a month, and I don't know if that has been rectified.

Krusell Cabriolet: Okay, but leaves screen pointing outward and unprotected; same for top. With the swivel clip I was worried it would fall out like with the Sena issue above. I was nervous using it, so I returned it.

Krusell Handit: Nice, inexpensive, well-designed, and no big flaws. I'm keeping it. I would recommend this one for an expensive case that works very well and looks good, but the keyboard is not accessible without removing the device. The swivel belt clip sticks out a bit and flops around on your belt, which is a minor irritant.

Piel Frama: Well-made, very nice looking and stylish, and another keeper. This will be my main case, but it has some flaws, too:

1. The card slots are directly over the screen (no problems so far). A moderate blow might cause the cards to touch the screen, but I'm not sure if that's a real concern.

2. The flip tends to trip the top-front buttons, but I usually put my device in standby before closing the flip, so this isn't usually a problem.

3. Earpiece connector is difficult to negotiate. The hole doesn't line up precisely and the flip is hard to snap when it is inserted. This isn't a major problem.

Virtues include accessibility to the keyboard by just removing a small strap. Best looking case I've seen.

I've decided there is no perfect case, and the only way to determine which is best for you is spend two weeks researching like I did. The 8-case review previously cited is a good start, and if you want a Krusell or Piel Frama keep an eye out on Ebay. The Piel Framas are hard to find, and from the manufacturers site in Europe they are $75, but show up on Ebay from time to time. I was emailed last week with an offer for one like mine from an Ebay seller for only $46 shipped, so if anyone wants a Piel Frama with the strap, let me know. It may still be available.[/b]

Does ADW provide a shortcut to open it's app drawer? If so, you could just set that as the OnTap action of the bitmap module top open it when the bitmap is tapped.

Hi everyone,

My phone was acing kind of wonky after the 4.4.2 update so I wanted to start fresh from MK2 and OTA to 4.4.2 like I did before. I tried to odin back to MK2 via Odin and the stock MK2 tar but it immediately failed and now it states Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select Recovery Mode in Kies and try again. If anyone has any ideas it would be much appreciated. I'm pretty sure the stock 4.4.2 tar would fix it right up but I dont see it on Samsung Firmware website yet. Thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] kevinsturf:
I don't think you can Odin back to a previous firmware, in this case from 4.4.2 to 4.3. I believe this was the same issue with going from 4.3 to 4.2. You will need the 4.4.2 NAE tar file to recover your phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot] jprocket45:
kevin is correct there is no way I think it is due to keys of going back ( not sure if its keys but think it is heh ) anyways what you need to due is install the newest update before kitkat threw odin then you can update to kitkat now that the ota file is available for download.

That might be true. Was just trying to say you don't always need the latest to get it to work. Ex. I've used MK2 on 3.07 and 1.85 I believe. But yes he might have luck with the newest.

2) I used Odin to flash it. It failed at the end of the system partition, but it appears to have succeeded for all of the other partitions.

3) I then used Heimdall to flash just the system partition again, and it succeeded. I rebooted, and all was well. You may try Odin a couple times to see if it succeeds, but I didn't have the patience.

Hopefully that will get you up and running again.
