What was the total cost of this? With all the time and effort added in, wouldn't a iottie of been worth the trouble for wireless qi charging.

Sent from my Gunmetal Lg G3
[G3 Accessories] iazybandit:
Nicely done but adding all those prices up..$23 for the Koolpad, $24 for the car mount, $10 for the magnets is already over $50 and that's not including the non-slip mat.

Wouldn't it cost the same for one that already does the same thing? You probably just have to add metal to the battery cover but that's about it.
[G3 Accessories] overzeetop:
The AirDock, when they eventually ship, is $69 (+$10 in my case for the long mount). I'm in for about $60 at this point, so not much savings, but I probably should have clarified (and will in a moment) - the item list was mostly what I had and wasn't purchased specifically for this project. The car mount was way more pricey than what I'd normally get, but the raked windshield in my van makes normal mounts nearly impossible. a Similar mount for my truck was ~$10. The KoolPad was purchased prior to wanting to make the magnetic charger; I just wanted one I knew would work well and could transfer a lot of juice.

One-stop shopping at Deal Extreme (dx.com) would cut the cost quite a bit, the only question is whether the Qi case has the same clearance inside the shell:

Qi pad for $11 http://www.dx.com/p/qi-x5-mobile-wireless-charger-black-298118

the bigger magnets for $4 http://www.dx.com/p/12-5-x-1-5mm-round-shape-ndfeb-magnet-silver-9-pcs-233616

the sticky pad $3 http://www.dx.com/p/vehicle-car-anti-slip-mat-pad-black-19-x-14cm-161650

Mount for $8 http://www.dx.com/p/lson-028i-adjustable-car-mount-holder-for-cell-phone-black-185931

Pringles $2

So for a dedicated version, $28 could probably be done.
[G3 Accessories] overzeetop:
I spent about $60; as I've added to the OP it could be done for less (<$30) with careful component selection from a single Hong Kong vendor. The iOttie is $80 and wouldn't work well in my van (raked windsheild. no "dash" to speak of for mounting).
[G3 Accessories] Varming:
Not relevant, sorry.
[G3 Accessories] Varming:
I will try to make a similar charger but with the DX parts instead - I did choose a different charger than the one linked to though as I read that the X5 doesn't work very well. I will keep you posted on the parts when they get here.
[G3 Accessories] Varming:
I found a China QI charger in a closet (got too many gadgets in there) and after inserting the Pringles bottom in the phone the charger actually charges alot better for some reason..? Anyway - I left the G3 on the charger pad with navigation running. The charger could almost keep the phone charge at status quo BUT the phone temp went up to 46C after maybe an hour or so. I hope the DX charger works better or at least cooler :)
[G3 Accessories] Varming:
I've been working more on this little project :) I've put 4x 3 10mm magnets inside the charger and I noticed that the actual coil could be lifted closer to the lid of the charger - actually by several mm. After this the lid had to be pressed hard together to close and it arcs a tiny bit in the middle but that only brings the coil even closer to the charging pad inside the cover when the bits of sticky pad is lifting the phone a bit.

The result is now that the phone charges between 18-30% / hour at a temp of 35C. I can keep it charged when using navigation (and even very slowly charge it) at a temp of 40C. This is at a temperature in the room I'm testing in at about 25C. So when using AC in the car it will be lower.

The learning point for me has been that a quite bad QI charger can be caused by wrong placement of the coil inside in charger. After lifting (and centering) mine it's actually quite good. Keep in mind that before modding this actual charger I was close to throwing it out as it seriously almost couldn't charge and it was VERY picky about placement of the phone. So after using maybe a minut finding the right placement it almost couldn't charge neither my old SGS3 nor my LG G3 and it often stopped charging because the coils was too far away from the phones charging pad. This was when placing the phone directly on the charger with no sticky pad lifting it slightly from the charger.

Now after modding it and WITH sticky pad it charges consistently and at an acceptable rate :)

If anybody is curious I can take the charger apart and take a picture. I build mine from the same design as the OP (which I'm really grateful for, this is more or less the charger I've been dreaming of), I put in the magnets a bit differently, personally I think my way is easier but it's not a huge difference.

Ohh.. and I still got parts coming from DX, I also found a 1.5A output QI charger that I would like to make a build on to see if it's even better for navigation :) If anybody is interested I will keep posting in this thread with my experiments..
[G3 Accessories] overzeetop:
So you used a grid of 12 magnets? What thickness are they?

Or did you mean you used four 3mmx10mm and that's how you got the space to lift the coil - by placing them outside the coil area ?

That's interesting about lifting the charger coil. Mine isn't too picky about the placement, but I'm a little glad that I don't have more magnets as it's just enough to hold my G3 on but not so much that it pulls out of my hand before it's in the correct spot for charging.

I'll let admit I haven't checked the charging rate, but it seems to hold its current battery level while using GPS.
[G3 Accessories] Varming:
Oh I'm sorry - I use 4 "towers" which each is made of 3x 10mm diameter, 2mm thick neodymium magnets. They are placed around the coil in the corners marking the coil area in the charger (if that makes sense..?). I guess a picture would be helpful here so I will take the charger apart later today and take one.
[G3 Accessories] overzeetop:
Makes perfect sense get - and a great idea.
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BIOBACK:
Hi everyone I have some doubts I hope you can clear for me.

This Monday I buyed an awesome Z2 with my local carrier (TIM-Telecom Italia Mobile) for 15 eur per month

Today I saw on Sony's website that the latest update right now is 17.1.2.A.0.314 and had already solved the camera overheating problems on FW 17.1.1.A.402 which is my main complain about the phone.

I hate to be outdated having I high end phone

So I'm thinking about debrand the phone but I'm afraid I could avoid warranty if so.

I saw this tutorial:

xperiablog.net/2014/06/01/debrand-your-xperia-z2-tutorial

Is it safe? It doesn't matter if I use that UK rom on my italian phone? Can't I use another generic rom to do the process (i.e an italian one)? I can return to the stock TIM rom if anything happens and they will accept it for warranty?

Sorry if these are such newbie questions but I just buyed the phone it's awesome and I don't wanna lose it :(

Thanks ^^
[Xperia Z2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Envious_Data:
if your device is a Xperia Z2 LTE (D6503) then all for a Z2 (D6503) will work without problem on YOUR Z2 (D6503), unless you have a Z2 D6502 then look for D6502 files

take note that your xperia Z2 warrenty from sony will be voided if you unlock your bootloader or root your device

I just got the us cellular s4 mini sch-r890 and immediately update to 4.4.2.

I am having problems rooting my phone. I tried a 1 click meathod, checked the roit wirh an app and it says not properly rooted. The next time I typed root int my browser(not chrome) my net started lagging, got dumped off pages. I downloaded the xda app then tried to get the labs upgrade and my phone restarted.

[HTC Desire 601] Reangsei:
I rooted my rogers HTC Desire 601, I forgot to back it up and I couldn't find an ruu for rogers and I used S-OFF to get a Telus CID and I put the TELUS ruu and removed s-off and relocked the bootloader and flashed the telus ruu and now it won't let me update to 4.4.2.

Can anyone help?
[HTC Desire 601] MameTozhio:
Basically I've been trying to help him and got stuck and can't figure it out anymore.

So he rooted, lost/forgot to make a back up. He had S-OFF and root. So I helped him change his CID to telus001, helped him remove S-OFF and relock the bootloader and flash the TELUS 4.2.2 RUU. When we tried to update after flashing the RUU, it said something about his phone being modified and wouldn't let him update. I'm stuck on this and can't help him anymore.
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
Wow sounds like you've done everything right. What's the exact error?
[HTC Desire 601] MameTozhio:
When trying to update to 4.4.2, it tells him that his phone has been modified. The only thing modified about it at that point was that it says relocked. The only thing I could think of is the market id or whatever it's called (Not CID).
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
The mid, but that would need to be charged before running the ruu no?
[HTC Desire 601] Child's Play:
Reboot and try again
[HTC Desire 601] MameTozhio:
I thought that too and was surprised that it flashed.
[HTC Desire 601] mrplowdan:
Maybe change the mid, ruu again and give it a shot
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
I recently purchased a Straight Talk plan ($45/mo) so I could use my Vivid as a phone. I have consistently been updating my ROM and testing out CM10.x, CM11, RR, PAC, AOKP... Anyway, while using the latest PAC rom, I noticed that I too had issues with sending and receiving MMS messages. Rignfool had previously posted a fix wherein one would download hangouts and use that, but I did not have success with this method (it might have been because I'm on ST as opposed to AT&T, or maybe I've always been flashing hangouts as a replacement default SMS app).

Anyway, I found that in my situation (clean install of PAC rom 8-6-2014 (android 4.4.4), flashing stock pa gapps, and flashing a backup of my user apps made through Titanium Backup), installing 8sms and then choosing it as my default SMS app in settings (just called "messaging" in my case). I made no changes to my APN at this point (my settings APN was Straight AT&T, tfdata), and sending pictures worked without a hitch!

I'm making this thread to discuss any ways to fix/workaround any MMS issues, with the hopes of uncluttering the development threads and actually getting solutions to those with problems.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
I had an issue with the 8-5 nightly...

I went into hangouts... And made sure the right APN was chosen... Rebooted and was able to send MMS...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
Hangouts installed as a user app, or as a system app (I assume when you flash the full modular or stock pa gapps it gets installed as a system app)?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
I always have hangouts as a user app...

I have used banks gapps for a long time...
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
Awww... Now it won't sent :/
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
Hit it with a stick and try again... ?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] projectisaac:
I like that solution :) Gonna mess around and see what I can do
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] rignfool:
I screamed at mine too... If that helps any... ?

Well, my English is 90% perfect. I just didn't put some thought into it and posted right away. :p
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dshoe:
Oh, great! Glad to see you around here.

No you may request, but I have a very tight schedule so no guarantees.

I did find a potential bug with the fast charge implementation so please do not use that as of right now. At least until I can confirm what's going on with my end.

EDIT

Everything seems to be working for me now, but I did run into a strange issue where my phone would not turn on after charging all night with fast charge turned on at 1500ma. If anyone runs into the same issue, plug your phone into the computer until it turns on again. I will be testing this thoroughly over the next couple days.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dshoe:
I've been testing the kernel all day and charging it with fast charge on and off, and have not had any new issues. I believe the kernel is safe to use now, if anyone has any issues please let me know. I will continue to test this thoroughly and will provide ant new information I have.
[Nexus 4 Android Development] dshoe:
v0.2 is now in testing. I have been running this build since yesterday and it seems to be stable. If I get some positive feedback I will update the OP, and if I don't hear from anyone then I will continue to test for another day and then update the thread if there are no issues.

Bonjour,

J'ai un DELL latitude E6520, et le chargeur commence à montrer des signes de fatigue, vu qu'il ne charge que si j'appuie sur le cable au bon endroit... ;)

En bref le chargeur est quasi mort.

J'ai récupéré un autre chargeur (un HP), 60WH pareil, avec le bon embout. par contre quand je le branche il me dit : "branché mais pas en charge".

Comment ça se peut, on peut réinitialiser la Batterie latitude E6520 ?

Le souci sur ce modèle c'est que la batterie est intégrée et pas accessible...

Merci de votre aide.

Hello there,

I have a DELL Latitude E6520, and the charger starts to show signs of fatigue, as it loads only if I press the cable in the right place ...

In short the charger is almost dead.

I got another charger (HP), 60Wh same, with the right tip. by cons when I plug it said "plugged in but not charging."

How it can, we can reset the Latitude E6520 Battery?

The concern with this model is that the battery is built in and not accessible ...

Hi guys

I bought the new galaxy s3 neo GT-i9300i which for me it was the best in it's range specially Grand2 . And when I compare it to the original model GT-i9300 I found it's better than 9300 in 2 main points :

1- 1.5 Gb ram . Avilable 1.35 Gb

2- 2 lines

I also need to confirm that GT-i9300i is 1.4 Gb arm cortex a7 processor not 1.2 and its almost have same settings as the GT-i9300 . I know that most of you will say that 9300 is better in matter of processor because it's cortex a9 but it's same speed and the gpu in 9300 is better but I confirm that I played most of hardcore games with no lag.

Now my question why can't I find dedicated fourm for GT-i9300i or any custom rom ?because theory it's almost same device in general aspects .

Hope to see more members that own this device comment on this topic .

Hey,

There is a big security issue on WPA2 Enterprise (802.1x) configuration in Android. The GUI offers no way to set the sebject_match option for the certificate so it is possible to install an fake Radius server and fish user credentials even there is set a cetificate in the Wifi configuration.

As far as i know it is possible to set the subject match option manual in the wpa_supplicant.conf but this is only possible on rooted devices and not on all rooted devices. I have found out that there is the option in the wifienterpriseconfig.java. The answer of google for that beheavior is "this works as intended".

My question is now, is there a way to write a app to configure wificonnections without root privileges which includes the subject_match option and has anyone experience with that?
