Does anybody charge their TyTN in car via a usb car charger. I use a usb car charger for different devices: Bluetooth headset, gps reciever...

I also used it to recharge my Blue Angel.

Unfortunately I can't charge the TyTN. Has anyone had the same issue?

The charger says that it can charge 1Ampere. The original home charger is also 1 Ampere, so I don't understand why it doesn't work.

Have tried it with two different usb car chargers and both have the same problem: It charges only if TyTN is turned off. When I switch it on then the red charging light turns off.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] beginner:
I had similar problems except I didn't need to swithc the pda. I saw the usb charge couldn't charge completly or it was very slow to charge if I had screen with light or TomTom running.

I solved using a diferent charger, that generates 220 volts. It has 140W and costs around 40 euro.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Lio:
Do you have a link, a picture or a brand name to this product?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] pix09:
Same problem.

I was told by the dealer that it's a matter o cable (the pins in the cable)

the one sold with the device is fine just to sync and charge from pc, but can't charge through car adapter.

I'm bought a new cable (arriving next week): it's a double cable, one side for pc, other side for charging.

if it works, I'll post..

bye
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Lio:
I'm afraid to tell you that your new cable will not work. You were not well informed. I am sure that it is not a cable problem, but a charger problem. According to me the power output expressed in Amps (Ampere) is not strong enough even though it says that it's 1 Ampere as the mains charger. Those cheap chinese made chargers are not strong enough for the TyTN. That's why it charges when the TyTN is switched off but as soon as you switch it on, the power output from usb car charger is not enough.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] pix09:
mmhhh, I'll wait the new cable, hoping it works ;.)

the fact is that with original cable the car adapter doesn't charge even if the device is off..

same thing with a 220V usb adapter.

only the original kit seems to work..

I'll tell you in a few days

btw: both adapter are chinese ;-)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Airax:
Nope, Lio is right on this one. The car charger simply doesn't supply enough juice to charge the TyTN. O2 Exec users have had this problem for ages.

I use the charger bought from the Orange shop for the spv c500. Works fine, if a little slowly.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] chippyuk:
There are strange things happening!

The USB cable should not enter in to the equation as USB is USB and the pins should be wired correctly.

Here is what I have found.

If charging in the car all is ok until the power is cut, then it only charges whilst off until the TYTN is soft reset. This looks to me like there is a software / powercontroller confilct. It is a little confusing but see the scenarios below;

Soft reset TYTN, leave it off. Plug in to cigarette charger, turn TYTN on/off all is fine.

Turn off TYTN and unplug, all is fine, plug back in (TYTN off) will still charge when TYTN on.

Turn TYTN on, unplug, will not charge whilst on anymore until soft reset but will charge whilst off.

This is the same if I turn the ignition to power the lightere socket.

However, another spanner in the works, if I pull out the charger even with the device off and re-insert it it stops charging until soft reset.

What seemd to work best was to do a soft reset whilst the unit is charging and powered on. After that I was able to unplug, plug in even when the unit was on, turn ignition off/on etc... It only reverted back to not charging when I removed the charger from the socket as it was charging.

These are my findings and I presume each charger will be different.

I presume whatever electronics are in the chargers also causes problems. I have tried 2 USB and one fully wired charger and it is the same with all. I know for a fact that at least 2 of them have overcharge circuitry built in but do not think the 3rd has, I also presume the TYTN also has so perhaps there is some conflict here also.

I do know that there are car chargers specifically for the TYTN so will try one of those and see if it solves the problem. (anyone tried one?)

Anyone with more ideas please let us know.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Lio:
Thank you for this tip. Now I can recharge in car thanks to u! :lol: I tried it and it works.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] chippyuk:
Great Lio,

Glad it worked. When you get a chance, could you pull out the chrger from the lighter socket as it is charging and let me know if it then stops charging again. I just want to see if the same happens to you as it did to me. It will work again once you soft reset whilst plugged in.

Thanks.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Lurker0:
I believe this trick should go to FAQ.

A week ago I visited a lot of shops trying many mains-to-USB charges to no avail. I already had one for MP3 player that didn't work too.

After reading your post, I connected the original charger and SRed. Now that another charger works!

Can't imagine what's the reason but it really works.
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Lurker0:
Yes, it does exactly like you've described.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] 38h21543:
"I found this : http://www.expansys.com/product.asp?code=138248"

Could you contact them and ask about its power rating and whether it is susceptible to the problem/bug?
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] pix09:
here I am again.

finally I got the new cable and... surprise... IT WORKS

I used it without soft resetting the device and it worked

I tryed soft resetting the device and it worked

But the biggest surprise of all is that after using the new cable, also the old one started working ..

i guess there must have been a software bug that has gone (hope forever) away.

For those interested, the new cable is a double one: one side is usb, other two sides are charge connector and hotsync connector.

[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] Crash Override:
friend of mine has apparently got a tytn, I'll pick up a 1.2A USB / Car adapter this weekend and see what happens, hopefully the extra .2A should enable the tytn / exec to charge normally in a car.

Having had an exec for a while I will agree that most 12v/USB adapters struggle with the exec, but hopefully this will make the difference, if it works I will post the details of the company selling them (they are listed for the PSP)
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam Accessories] 8Ball:
I haven't had this trouble. Just got my new MDA Vario II and I've used it with my old MDA compact mains charger and the car USB charger and it works with no problems.

Tried it with the Vario II on and off and have a charging light on both.

Hello Hyperion Users! Good Day! :)

Since H9 is released a week(month) ago and has many REV Files for the bug fixes. I am currently on H9GMFB+UPD.01 running SAVIE@BUITENZORG #1 KERNEL.

I'm here to make a review about the rom.

ROM - Since final build is released with the update.zip file. We are certainly happy with the rom. But some of us really having some bugs on flashing, no imei, bootloop, etc. But our fellow hyp'users are helping each other to make a very stable fine good looking awesome rom. :)

Some of my issue or some of my review of this rom:

STATUSBAR - some apps i've download i'm having some white on white icons like signal bars, wifi bars, battery and some icons because the statusbar is background with white. The icons are white too. So some of us will have to take a look hardly because background and icons are both white. So hoping for the next update will have change color of the icons or background. :)

Well for my experience only the statusbar i am having some difficulties. :)

KERNEL - I've used hells fusion, jarvis, merruk, and savie. The best kernel for us is ON the user's taste. But for me it was savie because it's battery and performance friendly. There's a lot of savie's kernel. I am using [MENTION=4747638]buitenzorg[/MENTION] #1.

For my best experience it was :

Governor - SMARTASSV2

I/O Scheduler - SIO/NOOP

Values - 832-156mhZ

TWEAKS - i only flashed Adrenaline and PurePerformance X. And i'm still currently undergo with it. But for my experience it was awesome. :)

UPDATE - 06.12.11 GMT+8:00

Since BETA7 has bugs. We flash back to BETA6, EXT4 Tweak, and SQLITE. Freaking awesomeness!

Problem might have caused due to error while flashing the recovery. Try flashing recovery again. And if you cant boot in to the device (not recovery) flash with original Stock Firmware. Then try flashing Recovery.

[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] fearofbirds:
Hi all,

I discovered the Antutu benchmark performance testing app, as I was looking into some lagging i've been experiencing when switching between apps. I've even tried improving performance using SetCPU, but i'm still not completely impressed with this tablet compared with a gen 2 iPad I had previously.

My tablet stacked up OK in the test, but the standard performance of a couple of the Samsung tablets and an HTC phone (I think) was quite a bit better. This was a bit of a shock, as I understood that this tablet was supposed to be a pretty solid performer.

Does anyone have thoughts on this? Are my expectations unrealistic? Is there something I should do?

At the moment the tablet is rooted and running Apex Launcher.

Thanks!
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] pmeinert:
Both Samsung and HTC are known to be cheating in benchmarks and HTC is still doing it. That said, I don't care about benchmarks. I know what the hardware is capable of and I where hoping for some custom roms to advantage of, but things are moving slow and I may have been a bit too optimistic. One thing I am very happy about compared to my ipad is ram. My ipad keeps killing apps and have to reload when I return. Even having two tabs open in safari and trying to copy/paste between them is a big hassle. I am very happy with mine and have no problems, except marking text is broken at least in chrome (if you drag to extend your selection, it will drop to next line, making it almost impossible to mark the multiple words you want).
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] fearofbirds:
Hmm... OK. THanks for the thoughts. I guess it might be that the niggling problems with the z2 are going to be sorted out with software updates by Sony as time progresses - hopefully that is the case.

And i'm really not completely sure of how custom ROMs work and whether they would help, but if that is a prospect i'd definitely take advantage of. For interest, which custom ROM that may soon come out would you recommend? And why?
[Xperia Z2 Tablet General] pmeinert:
I must be lucky, because I don't experience any of the those touch problem people report. Maybe Sony's have used parts from more suppliers and only parts from a specific supplier experience the problem. I don't know, I just hope for everybody and that it get sorted out.

It is difficult to recommend any rom, when there are none. This is my first Android tablet and I have no experience with the rom situation. However on my phones I have been using carbon rom with great success. It is based on Cyanogenmod, but has additional functionality from other roms. Especially I like the expanded desktop (immersive/fullscreen) functionality and slim-shortcuts to different settings including toggling expanded desktop. I am not using it at the moment though, because I have updated my Htc One m7 to latest Sense 6 rom (or rather a custom rom based on original Sense 6 rom) and whatever HTC have done, it is working, I have never had such a speedy rom. I also like the makeover HTC did with Sense6, so I think I will stay with it, although I used to dislike Sense.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FraggyDav:
Greetings,

My internal sd card died slowly over time. It failed to mount on some occasions at first. After a few weeks I had massive app crashes.

Everything I did on the phone (installing apps, deleting files, even doing a factory reset) seemed to revert back after rebooting the phone. I mean I delete some files, and after reboot, the files came back from the dead. Same thing for factory reset.

Installing other roms made the situation even worse, and I had to revert back to stock 2.3 rom.

And since last week, the phone is on permanent bootloop. It won't go into download or recovery mode (it used to activate those modes with 3 button combo before).

I tried the USB JIG method. Built a 301k resistor, connected pins to the usb thingie. It did power the phone on, but failed to trigger the download mode. The phone still goes into a boot loop.

Anyone has any ideas? I don't know what more information I can provide about the issue.

Regards,
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Irwenzhao:
No download mode?

If your phone won’t enter download mode, you can try three things:

A USB jig. Don’t pin your hopes on this, they rarely succeed in this scenario.

‘Jump starting’ – You might need someone else to give you a hand for this. Take the battery out of your phone and wait 30 seconds. Now, press the button combination to enter download mode, and with this combination still depressed, get someone to put the battery back in. Hopefully this will jolt your phone into download mode.

Take out the phone battery, and re-insert it, but don’t turn the phone on. Now, plug in the charger while holding the volume down button. Keep holding volume down till you enter download mode.

If your phone won’t enter download mode, and will do nothing but get hot when you attempt to do anything to it (charge it, turn it on), then your motherboard is in need of replacement.

Your options

I’ve seen a lot of people, when their Odin flash fails, either:

Give up. Not a good option.

Flash a .pit file. That should be used as an absolute last resort. There’s a lot to try before getting to that stage! If a flash of a .pit file fails in Odin, your phone is well and truly unrecoverable, and you will need a motherboard (MB) replacement.

Quoted from a quite by Hopper8, try these steps. Can't really do anything since recovery/download mode is dead. If you can get into download mode, flash a .pit file (get all the files ready beforehand). Be quick, since you don't know when your device will die again.
