[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] punknubbins:
I am trying to mod a back cover to expose the charging pins inside the phone, usually used for wireless charging modules, as external pads on the edge of the cover so I can drop it in a custom charging cradle. The design is pretty easy, the materials are trivial, and the spare back covers are cheap enough I can kill a couple while prototyping. But what I can't find is good documentation on the five spring pins/pads under the back cover.

Before anyone asks, I don't like wireless charging, it wastes to much power. That 30-40% charging inefficiency isn't just not transmitted, it is lost. Might as well revert back to incandescent bulbs rather than LED or compact florescent if you think wasting a little power per device isn't going to hurt anyone. Alright, done with my soapbox rant.

I don't know if the phone is expecting a slightly lower voltage on the wireless charging pins and is running the input through a step up converter to normalize the input voltage. I kind of assume that the wireless charging coils are matched to maintain voltage parity, but I would rather not risk burning up my phone testing it out. Then there are the other two pins, above the battery terminal, that I fantasize about being a set of usb data pins, though I am almost certain I am not that lucky.

I am also really bad at searching for this stuff so I am looking for a little help. I am not entirely sure if these pins are referred to as power pins/pads, test pins/pads, or something else entirely. My searches thus far just return lots of reviews and teardowns that don't talk about the input specs for the pins/pads. I haven't found any documentation online about using the pins for accessory development or anything else. I was hoping someone here has more details about these pins/pads.

Has anyone, who has experimented with the pins under the back cover, provide some guidance? Or has anyone found reference documentation for these pins?

Have read some reviews on different extended batteries because I need one for my I9192 Galaxy S4 Mini. It’s been a year since I purchased the phone and the battery life hasn’t been an issue until now. Extended batteries add size and it's not sleek though, want to try a bit of it. Ordered from mpj as they has batteries for almost every types and I found one for I9192. Hope it would save me for my S4 mini.

hello forum,

im new here so sorry if this is in the wrong section!

So my problem starts here, i previously Flashed a custom OS onto my phone, Cyanogen Mod 11, when i got bored of it i decided to download the Stock touchwiz android for my Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505, i proceeded to download Odin307, once i had the OS and Odin i opened Odin in Administrator, i choose my file which was extracted and i used the PDA option to choose it, all was fine until it encountered this error (<ID:0/006> Complete(Write) operation failed.)

once that failed i tried to boot the phone where it says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. please select recovery mode ion Kies and try again" SO basically i can still get into the Download mode and can get to the Firmware upgrade error screen, that is all, is there a way to fix it? ive tried countless times to flash the stock touchwiz but get the same error message on odin! Please help!
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suspect008:
What is the stock version you tied to flash?

Is the drivers installed and phone get recognised in the ODIN and device manager when in download mode?

Have you mistakenly or intentionally ticked re-partition in ODIN?

Did KIES run in background?

there is lot of threads here on XDA on same problem, try one of those our users have suggested like without closing ODIN and reflashing again.

try with another firmware file or ODIN version. here are some links I thought useful. google would help on searching "complete(write) operation failed".

- I tried to flash the vesion 4.3 for samsung galaxy s4 i9505 telstra.

- yes they get recognised and so odes the phone

- after various tries i tried the re-paritition btu initially i did not, only the auto boot.

- didnt have kies installed at the time of flashing

Thanks for the help, ill try tonight to get it sorted.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] suspect008:
okay, let us know update. repartitioning with pit file is last resort. its better not to play with it. bt if anything doesn't solve this, repartitioning with PIT file would be the last option to try. bt I would rather go for warranty if you have binary counter reseted.

and if you are trying to flash a rom without knox bootloader on a device that had been on knox this error is occurs mostly.

Info from O2 Website -

This patch limits the headset volume to a certain sound pressure level.

The patch is needed for the compliance to the prevention of acoustic shock requirements outlined in SASO ICCP, 221.CVG:2003(Issue No.:4).

The patch if applied successfully will prevent the headset volume from exceeding 100dB.

You may consider installing this patch to your device if the above is needed.

Know im on 4.1.1 with a 4.3 bootloader it looks like know gotta figure out how to upgrade to the 4.3
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dabloc123:
I ended up with the same problem yesterday.

I installed the 4.3 stock firmware via odin, there are two other files that you should run after installing the firmware, AT&T i317 ODIN 4.3 UCUBMK6 TZ.IMG & UCUBMJ4 (Leak) PARAM.BIN (AT&T Note 2 ONLY).

After installing the three, boot into recovery mode and wipe. restore factory data and try booting again.

One other thing I found is that for whatever reason, running my phone on just the battery causes it to go into a BOOT LOOP. My battery is defective somehow. I tested it with another friends Note 2. Put my battery in his phone and it gets stuck on the logo screen without the charger plugged in.

If you have a way of testing another battery, do that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] bigfdaddy2:
I have 2 spare batterys with an external charger ... ive got it working its one 4.1.1 and want to uograde to 4.3 but afraid to so it doesnt mess up again....im not rooted and its stock recovery I wonder if I can flash 4.3 on top of what I got ...im usubg 4.3 bootloader but it says knox void and custom system
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] dabloc123:
If you go into setting > about, it shows that you are running the 4.3 (MK6) bootloader? And you have android 4.1.1 running? If so I did not know what was possible. If you are running the 4.3 (MK6) bootloader you should be able to install the stock 4.3 firmware via odin.

Flash I317-UCUBMK6.tar.md5

Flash I317UCUBMK6-TZ.tar.md5

Flash I317UCUBMK6-TZ-PARAM.tar.md5.

If it doesn't boot after this, Wipe/ restore factory data.

It took a few tries for me but ultimately worked.

1 more thing, When I tried flashing the 4.2.1 firmware I got an error that it was unsupported and recieved the Knox count 1.

4.3 worked for me and I am running the MK6 bootloader.

[Xperia Z1 General] Brownman33:
Ok so,

this is my first post here so I was just wondering with the announcement of the Xperia Z2 and it's camera upgrades (The 4K to be exact).

Do you think it possible to have the Z1 do the same?

I did some Goggling and apparently the Z2 uses the same camera hardware as the Z1... So I ASSUME the upgrades are software...

Does anyone have an ideas?

Thanks
[Xperia Z1 General] kantk20111:
The Z1 will most definitely get 4K recording, either through an official Sony update or through the devs.

In fact, the Z1 will get almost every software feature the Z2 will have including tap2wake, 4k recording etc. The one I really want is the noise cancelling technology for earphones. That would be perfect.
[Xperia Z1 General] GuestX0057:
If you want true noise cancelling for head-/earphones then that has to be built within the earphones. Any software claiming to be "noise cancelling" can at best just increase or add ambient low sounds to mask outside noise. That is not and can never be true noise cancelling.

There are lots of earphones with that technology on the market but they are quite expensive and I seriously doubt Sony will package expensive earphones like that with a smartphone. If you really want noise cancelling then get a proper pair of 3rd party earphones and use them with any smartphone.
[Xperia Z1 General] Brownman33:
I'm hoping the XDA devs and stuff could, but I dunno if Sony would themselves, because if they add all the features to the Z1, the Z2's appeal REALLY drops and then the sales would too...

:/
[Xperia Z1 General] qbic2:
I guess its dedicated circuit, earphones with mic on each and probably 5 segment mini-jack. The same digital noise cancelation is present in Sony walkmans.
[Xperia Z1 General] GuestX0057:
Yes, pretty much. It's just that I doubt Sony will bundle earphones or even separate technology for the audio jack and circuit like that with a smartphone. I can easily understand them doing it with a music player (and what isn't as legendary as Walkmans :> ) but not with smartphones - there's enough going on in smartphones as it is :)

[Xperia Z1 General] TheEndHK:
4K video recording is highly possible on Z1 and Z1 Compact. If Sony on Z1/Z1C 4.4.2 doesn't offer this feature, we'll just need someone to port it from Z2.

P.S. I owned all the flagships from Samsung original S to S4, all the note series, xperia Z1 and xperia Z ultra and Galaxy gear. ATM I use S4mini dual for work+second sim for Internet and Z Ultra for everything else.

Since Dual SIM is mostly popular in not rich countries that use prepaid those phones are usually low cost and therefore have low specifications that is why flagship phones like S5 will not have Dual SIM. Do you need full Dual SIM or you just want to swith between them. I am using dual SIM adapter.

Adapter?

Hello,

You mentioned a DS adapter. I take it that means you needs at least one SIM card spot available or is there an alternative. Such as a schematic for a HW setup that interfaces to the device without a slot available. I'm American with opportunities to work and live in Brazil. Sprint 's CDMA is ok for the US, but my SGSIII was not able to write GSM PRLs ( and function) and my phone was worthless there.

I was hoping that some commonality between HW revisions (every single business model supports this concept, why not here??) where Samsung could atleast use the same PCB footprints and populate components as needed for regional readiness.

Any ideas for my situation are welcomed... Or, should I say a univrsal situations.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kms108:
In most countries the 9009 is useless as the 2nd sim is for CDMA only, we'll have to wait and see if china will release a 9002 version with both sim socket to support GSM and 3G.

The S3 (i9302), S4 (i9502), Note 2 (N7102) and Note 3 (N9002) all have the dual sim version, so I expect the S5 to have it soon.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fly-n-High:
Second Internal Cell Support

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems most/all varients will have GSMx on 1 and CDMAx (in my case) as 2 on standy by. I see SIM as the easiest way to switch between, but if carriers such as Oi (Brasil) has PRLs that can be first unhidden and then wrote as the radio it would solve some issues. I just believe SIM technology is simlplier and less work involved (to obtain the PRLs).

Since we can put our phones on other carriers Sprint to Verision for example, that should apply on supported GSM network also? I was just stuck on my Sprint SGSIII having no ability to deviate from the BS CDMA networks...

---------- Post added at 12:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:58 AM ----------

Sure the camera HW is better with stills and video (boo on the 1X zoom though). SW optimization (including Build Prop changes )and better applications will drive overall pix quality and reference. The question will be how much, my SGSIII is far better for both than any iPiece around, IMO......
