I've got one of the cheap chargers from Amazon, it was working with my nexus 4 and then when my g3 arrived it wouldn't work with it.

However, it's not working with my nexus 4 too after trying it again today, so I think I might've just got a dodgey charger. But, someone else on the forum has had the same exact problem I'm having; charging for a couple seconds, then disconnect.

Was thinking about getting the official one, but tbh spending £30ish to stick a wire into something else and charge my phone on that a little bit slower doesn't really seem worth it.
[G3 Accessories] MasK:
My cheapo charger does not work at all. It detects a device placed but my g3 ignores it. Makes me wonder besides following the Qi standards, what else needs to be in place?
[G3 Accessories] cnn888:
lol

thanks for the update though. lucky i havent made my purchase yet.

btw, does your phone gets hot easily?
[G3 Accessories] MasK:
It does get warm near the cam area when playing games. Nothing unusual to me.

Just one time it got extra hot when I was converting from Dalvik->ART and the screen refused to turn off. The conversion took a while to complete as it has to convert over 200 apps.

[G3 Accessories] lappydk:
I'm awating the charger to arrive in my mailbox today or monday.

But according to our "test supervisor" it was very importaint that we use 1.8Ah chargers so it will charge at full speed :) - so it should roughly be the same as speed as the USB-charger
[G3 Accessories] piepie22:
I found this on a Korean Website. Do an English translate.

- http://leader1935.tistory.com/516

It seems total charge time 0-100% is a little over 3 hours on WCD-100.

I think it is pretty good compared to 2 hours on standard USB charger.
[G3 Accessories] Lorimere:
Haven't got the g3 yet. But do have the charger. Using it to charge the qi devices I have. It seems to be about 20% slower than plugged into wall directly. Your milage my vary and I'm sure it will depend on the device.

In other news, the charger works well, and I mainly bought it to have phone propped at work. But I think it cost more than it should. The LG disk chargers I got wcp-300 work just as well and I found those on sale for $20(normally about $40)
[G3 Accessories] Bayton:
I picked up 2 generic QUMOX qi chargers from Amazon.

They require very specific placement and I find the G3 disconnects after a few minutes and won't charge again unless I take it off and put it back on.

I get the same experience on both, with and without a case, so either the brand is sub-par or the qi contacts in the phone are faulty. I'd like to think the former!
[G3 Accessories] bluebobx:
I've got the official WCD-100 charger and my Spigen "slimarmour" case does cause some problems. With it on I get the "reposition phone" message but the phone still seems to charge. Downsides are that the charging takes a lot longer than with a "bare" phone and also the back of the phone gets quite hot.

Luckily the Spigen case is pretty easy to get the phone in and out of, so I've now settled into a routine of popping it out of the case before putting it on the charger. Charge times are pretty quick too - but that's probably because of the tablet-spec charger that LG ship as standard with the phone (note, at least in the UK, the WCD-100 doesn't come with any charger). Phone still gets quite warm - certainly warmer than other inductively charged tech I've had before (like the HP Touchpad's).

Also noticed something else - if the phone is in a cooling draft, (near a window for example) - then charging times are reduced. Maybe it's just my phone but that battery is really temperature-sensitive.
[G3 Accessories] Bayton:
I think I'll go for an official jobby tbh. These little guys I've got are OK for other devices but just aren't working with the G3.

I didn't realise the LG charger was a bit tasty. Good to know!

Everything I have tends to charge faster when it's cool, equally it drains slower when cool too. (Completely unscientific observations)

I swapped my Spigen Slimarmour with a LG official hardcase. I was under the impression it had a leather-feel (faux or not) but getting it I'm utterly disappointed. The Spigen is far stronger while the LG case is soft and really flimsy plastic. -- Easier to charge with it on I guess though.
[G3 Accessories] bluebobx:
Got my WCD-100 from Clove when they were doing that bundle deal. :) And it's better than the Samsung charger/stand I had for the S3, although personally I'd prefer if it was a couple of mm wider.

Thanks for the info on the official case - I was toying with that, but at nearly twice the price of the Spigen I went for the cheap option. Sounds like I chose wisely. (For once!).
[G3 Accessories] Smile123:
What are the differences between WCD-100 to WCD-800?

It's look like thy only difference is the design.
[G3 Accessories] Bayton:
It's so flimsy -

I'm looking at getting a USB power strip to make it easier to work with my cables and for travel. It has 2.1A outputs. What does everyone think about using a 2.1A input on the WCD-100 vs. the 1.8A LG charger input.

[G3 Accessories] Adso3000:
Don't fret about high Amps

There's actually no such thing as "too high" current on the adapter (look it up - especially if you're into crazy detailed stuff like me). The receiving device determines current "pull" (didn't study the electrical engineering part of my Ship's Engineer degree in English, so don't know the English terms. When the transformer is capable of delivering more current, it doesn't mean that it will, ie. push/force it. It's just the maximum "pull". A higher amp transformer will just handle it with less heat if going close to max. current. Try charging a device that came with a 500mA or 1A charger with a 2A charger and you'll see no difference, except maybe going from 99 to 100% slightly faster.
[G3 Accessories] eturk01:
Please run "Battery Monitor Widget" from the play store and share how many milliamps the LG G3 receives.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw

Might also use it to discover charging time.

It's a way to compare all these Qi pads so we know if they deliver different power. My N5 on TYLT provideds about 500 mA

Using the stock G3 1.8amp USB power adapter ought to give it the most power.

thanks!

Has anyone tried to use this charger with a Nexus 4? It seems like a great option, but I'd like to know if the coils line up and there are no random disconnects, etc.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpernea:
Hello,

I have an unlocked HTC One and I think I have some problems with the battery. For example, in the morning when I unplug it from charging and it's 100%, if I use it for like 5 minutes then the battery will drop by 6-7% and I don't think that's normal.

Then I was not at home today and I had like 19% and I decided to power it off. Then I turned it on after like 10 minutes, I had 7% left. I left it on for 10-15 minutes without using and it dropped to 2%. I turned it off again and then I turned it back on after like 5 minutes and it had 6%.

What is going on? Should I do a clean install of the software? I'm using ViperOne 6.2.1.

Thank you!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alray:
might be some app that is draining your battery, to confirm with gsam battery monitor. Maybe a rom/kernel issue or a bad battery....
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mpernea:
Alright so I've done what the guy advised here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2765655

Apparently it fixed some of the problems but I still fail to understand this thing: so last night I had 73% battery left. I turned off the phone and then turned it back on after 5 minutes, I had 68% battery left. Why is this?

Also, sometimes the battery level shown while the phone is on does not coincide with the battery level shown in Recovery TWRP. Why is that and what can be done about it?

Thank you!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenPope:
There is no way to know precisely what proportion of total charge is in a battery, it can only be estimated. Temperature, current drain, and many other factors affect the estimate. I think you're expecting too much.

So I have Tmobile HTC One, rooted, S-off, converted to GPE.

I got the update today, ran it. I have TWRP. It installed, then the boot animation came up, and my screen stayed on but was blank for over 5 minutes. I rebooted it, same thing. I rebooted and cleared Dalvik Cache & Cache. Same thing.

It now wouldn't stay turned off. So I left it sitting while I started looking for some info, about 15 minutes later I heard noises. Saw that my phone had come all the way up. Joyous & Happy I started looking around. Found that it removed a couple of my apps. No bigger. Then I saw weird graphical glitches at the bottom of the screen.

Got worried, tried to reboot. The screen darkened, but the reboot options never came up. I forced it to reboot, it comes up fast like its supposed too. Same thing though. Weird graphical glitches, and no reboot menu.

I'm afraid I screwed it up when I cleared the cache while it was obviously still initializing the install.

First off, any ideas?

Second, can I just rerun the OTA once its posted online?

My WiFi works better now, I love the new dialer.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] critterhart:
Does anyone know, can you reflash an update onto itself?
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tiny4579:
Not sure if it flashed properly for you. No you can't re-apply an OTA update. For now if you're rooted, the easiest thing to do is flash a 4.4.2 GPE ROM and wait for a ROM dev to integrate the 4.4.3 update in their ROM. It's possible to apply an OTA rooted but if any change except root and busybox, the update should fail. The firmware update may have failed with TWRP or TWRP may also not have applied the OTA properly.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] critterhart:
I am fully stock GPE. I'd rather stay that way. Is it possible to drop an older OTA, like the 442 on and then either wait for the 443 OTA to come back down or to drop it on myself?

I figured TWRP was the blame. I remember I had to switch to stock Recovery just to get 442 back in the day.

But it sounds like your saying I couldn't switch to Stock Recovery and then reapply the 443 OTA.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] critterhart:
Just an update, so I am able to reapply the OTA. It still did the same thing, but now I am going to drop the Stock Recovery on and do it again. Here's hopin'!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] majmoz:
FYI, you can not apply an older RUU if you are not S-OFF. OTA's are version specific going from an older version to a newer version. I believe that is the reason that you can not apply them again. You might want to check fastboot getvar all to see what is really on your phone.

Hi, I'm experiencing the same issue but am not able to get the 4.4.3 to reload using the links you provided. Would you be willing to outline the steps for me?

Thank you!
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericiidx:
Thanks in advance! I'm in the same boat (M7 converted to GPE 4.4.2 with TWRP) and my screen has been on but blank for the past 5 minutes. I'll give it another 10, and if that fails, opt for the stock recovery.

As I was typing this, the launcher came up finally. I also had about 1/3 of my apps removed, and am getting graphical glitches. So, time for that stock recovery!

Oh, also, my power button won't turn the screen off. :eek:

---------- Post added at 04:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:56 PM ----------

For this to work, you need S-OFF and an unlocked bootloader. It also stands that you are running GPE 4.4.2 (or have just updated to 4.4.3 and are having this problem.) This does not apply to any other ROM/RUU.

Download the latest GPE recovery from the first link; http://d-h.st/2F9. For ease of use, rename this file to recovery.img.

Also download the 4.4.3 OTA update from the second link. Put this on your phone's storage whenever you can.

Plug your phone into your computer via USB, open a command prompt, and type adb reboot bootloader

Once your phone reboots and you get your bootloader menu, type fastboot flash recovery recovery.img (it's the stock GPE recovery file you downloaded before.)

Reboot your phone.

Let the phone boot up, then type adb reboot bootloader again. Now, choose recovery to enter recovery. If you get any error (such as a KO'ed Android with a warning symbol above his head) hold VOL-UP and press the power button. You may need to do this multiple times. Your end goal is getting a menu, and you need to choose "apply from phone storage"

Find the 4.4.3 OTA file you downloaded before (the large ZIP file) and select it to install.

You should be done and good to go at this point.

I'd also like to add that TWRP was indeed to blame, as can be the case when OTAs come around. Using the GPE stock recovery got rid of the graphical glitches and slowdown. Now to just redownload the apps it decided to remove :P

Hey, i also updatet while having twrp, but my phone gut stuck,

so i followed instruction in these thread.

Okay, so I flashed google recoery from the link, but now i'm stuck.

How can i transfer the 4.4.3 update to my htc m7 phone storage, so I can apply it.

I managed to get to the a"pply from phone storage" menu.

Can you add some hints on how to transfer the zip file to the phone and where exactle to put it so the update wents through smoothly?

Seems I don't see my phone, while doing "adb devices".

I'm on windows 8, maybe that's the cause. Any Ideas?

Kind regards
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brassm22:
Thank you for the instructions, I have tried this, without any luck.

I can get to 4.4.3, but always with corrupted display.

I've tried;

Install 4.4.2 RUU via fastboot. (RUU from Link

Boot into Android.

Reboot to fastboot

Install recovery.img as listed in your post.

Reboot into Android.

Install OTA through Android.

This stuck me with the graphical errors (although the install went smoothly).

I then download the OTA file, placed it in downloads and ran it manually from the recovery menu.

I feel like I might be missing something obvious, but the process seems quite simple, and I've been on stock recovery for quite some time now (was able to OTA the 4.4.2 when it came out).

Anyways, thanks for your time and effort all the same, I think I'll just keep with 4.4.2 for now.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ericiidx:
Sounds like you got it. I had to install the OTA via recovery because I had already updated the OS to 4.4.3, and wasn't interested in formatting/flashing down to 4.4.2 to redo the process. If you are still on 4.4.2, you could just install it via the natural OTA process in Android. I would just recommend being on stock recovery to avoid any glitches.

Sure! While you are in the bootloader menu, your phone is in "fastboot mode" I suppose you could call it. It hasn't initiated the Windows driver at this point, so you are only connected to your phone as a dumb terminal. It will respond to fastboot commands only.

There is the command fastboot update <filename>, but I'm not sure if it would be appropriate for an OTA update. It sounds like it would be appropriate, but I'm not sure. I won't recommend it right now because I don't want you to possibly harm your device!

I bought the HTC Wizard (G4) in Germany and thereon is the german vodafone software (2.21.3.1). In order to change it into english I thought I just upgrade the software with summiters.

The upgrade itself runs fine but once it rebooted the OS is still that German Vodafone-SW. I don't know why is that?! Like I said, upgrade runs perfect but it still didn't change...

I tried to CID-unlock with lokwiz, but read afterwards that it won't work with G4.

Hi Guys,

yesterday i updated my Mega I9200 to the Official 4.4.2 K.K rom

and i found it so great to have this update ... but the only thing bothered me is how to root it !!

i searched alot for away until i found this way that I ALREADY TESTED for mine and

it worked well :victory:

1st :

I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY FAILURE / SABOTAGING YOUR DEVICE

as i said before it worked well for me and i just want to share it

for the fellows who have this beautiful device .

2nd : How to Root :

1- charge your device to a good limit ex. over 80% .

2- Take a backup for important stuff (apps-contacts-messages- etc. ) "Just in Case " .

3- Install philz_touch_CWM Recovery :

Download and start Odin 3.07

Download philz_touch_6.25.0-melius3gxx.tar.md5

Add .md5 file to PDA in Odin & Make sure that only F.Reset Time and Auto Reboot are ticked

Now you need to turn off your smartphone and put it into “Download Mode”

To do so, fist make sure that your device is completely turned off & press and hold Volume Down + Home + Power keys

Now using the original USB cable, connect it to PC & If phone is connected correctly, the colour or ID:COM box will change as well

Now just click on the start button

4- by now you have the philz Recovery on your device .

5- after that there is 2 Ways to root you device ( i did the 1st one & worked well )

1st Way :

boot into philz_touch Recovery by turn off your device Press and hold Volume Up + Home + Power buttons

open "philz settings " in recovery and choose " Re-Root the system "

reboot the device normally into the rom

after the device boot up install " superSU " app

and hence you have ROOTED your device

2nd Way :

same as 1st way but instead of open " philz settings " , you choose to install zip from SD Card

choose SuperSU v1.99 zip , that you already downloaded to sd card .

after flashing it , reboot normally and install " super SU " app

and hence you have root

Downloaded Files :

philz_touch_6.25.0-melius3gxx.tar.md5 http://filerio.in/av9q567dc3fr

UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99.zip http://filerio.in/vmqa4fbzszua

Odin3_v3.07.rar http://filerio.in/rfsww8dayjuz

Hope this was helpful to all of you Guys .

P.S : the forum moderators are welcomed to move the topic to right sector if it's not right .
