Just received my Classic - tried it on my Choetech 3 coil Charging pad - the smaller version.

No dice. Will detect the watch and fire up the coils - the watch charges for about 3 seconds, enough to power on the screen and display the percentage - from here it powers down and then after a 1/2 second delay - start up again. This is probably why the watch never reaches a full charge.

Have tried with the straps on and off and there is no difference with the Classic - even with the factory Leather straps, the watch back rests flush with the charging pad. Watch arrived with 77% - now up to 83% so it is charging. But the screen is constantly powering on and off. Probably safer to stick with the included charger - unfortunately...

I tried with the Anker wireless charger I use for my phone. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00Y839YMU

It will charge the watch....but after 5 mins, the OLED turned on with a message that said the battery was getting too hot and charging was disabled. Sure enough, it was rather toasty when I touched it.
[Samsung Gear S2] rwik78:
Samsung chaging pad works, but very slow

Well, I get the blinking blue light from Samsung Pad because I guess the watch coil is drawing too low a current for the charging coil to detect, but it works fine! My battery went up from 0% to 8% in past 30 minutes.
[Samsung Gear S2] vastl:
Hallo,

just saw this thread looking for a solution using different QIs. My cheap ANKER charger worked also fine out of the box, just the temperature got really high. With my other noname QI the S2 was not willing to charge (same ON/OFF problem as described above...), but this morning S2 shut down due to low battery - and the charger worked fine. Also heat was ok, just warm, charging from 0% to 11% within 15 minutes (much better than the Samsung charger, which is quite a turtle...).

Greetings, vastl

Ok, tried a few alternatives during weekend.

Andoer Qi Wireless Charger PCBA Circuit Board mit Qi Standard-Coil DIY Wireless Charging Zubehör Micro-USB-Port were great! Combined with a usual usb-charger the s2 got only warm and charged from 30 to 100% without any tricks.

The QIs dont look quite nice but are cheap and functioning fine!

Hello everyone,

It finally made me get my gear 2s classic charging with original Samsung wireless charger pad. After many attempts I managed . So its really is possible but it has to be just right.
[Samsung Gear S2] D@tz:
Compatible, but not..

From what I've seen from the Qi chargers I've had, is that they cannot scale the current very much, if at all. I don't know if it is in the Qi protocol or not, to be able to scale down the current output enough to accommodate such a small battery. It may be communicating all of the correct signals to/from the watch/charger defined within the protocol, but the watch may cancel the charge because of overheating/over-current issues. Currently I have a generic Qi charging pad only, and from testing, it will draw no more or no less than ~1.6Amps. So at the end of the charge cycle for the battery, there is going to be some waste heat, it is probably too much for such a small device to handle. If this is the case, more scalable Qi charging pads should be developed to accommodate a broader range of devices.
[Samsung Gear S2] hx4700 Killer:
Just my two cents on it but I used the official Samsung (normal charge rate) EP-PG920i charger and it would run for a few seconds and blink blue like everyone else says. It also started getting hot on the bottom of the watch after only a little bit of time and 3-4 tries. HOT battery = BAD. Shortens the lifespan considerable when it heats up too much too often.

Why on earth would you risk something that costs this much when you can just buy a charger like the factory one on Amazon for less than $20 ?

I am amending this to say that I bought the official samsung watch charger from Amazon for $29. I read some of the reviews on the cheaper ones and folks talked about buzzing noise and/or the watch getting warmer than with the factory charger on the back. Make no mistake, Heat = quick death for batteries like these.

How to charge s2

how did you get it to charge
[Samsung Gear S2] gamster111:
I believe I had a similar issue, I got a QI compatible charger from Amazon and I ran across this message board and it appears if you move the watch from the outer most ring until it connects and begins to flash once and the charge icons come on it is charging, if you have it in the correct spot it will alternate from a solid charge light back to a charge icon on your watch and then show the percentage of the charge, if it begins to flash you will need to slide the watch back to the outer circle until it stops flashing and then slide it back toward the inside of the circle again when it lights up again, there is a very small window in which it will continue to charge, you may have to repeat this step several times. A precaution you will or may need to monitor the temperature of your watch, I used a laser temperature device and pointed it at the center of the watch bezel and when it reached close to 100 degree's I pulled the watch. Prior to doing this I was only able to get about 13% charge which took about 5 to 6 hours on the same charger. Using this method I was able to to get this to 45% within about 30 minutes, I will continue to do it this way until I get more of a charge, I have ordered the correct charger for this watch and I already had a QI charger for my Samsung phone. Please make sure you have some way to monitor your temperature before you try this method.
[Samsung Gear S2] Johnster82:
Dang guys. Having the same problem. Bought and returned multiple wireless chargers. No such luck. I know with a 5w aftermarket charger nothing happens. With 7.5-10w you get the powering on and off. Locally my wal mart has a samsung licensed charger for $60 and i paid $50 for the watch lol. So i have one coming in the mail ($9.99 on ebay) and hoping to god it works. Will keep you posted.
[Samsung Gear S2] Exemplified:
Using an aftermarket wireless charger for a Samsung gear 2

So, I lost the original charger for my gear 2 and thought I’d have to buy a new one. I figured that I’d try an aftermarket Qi wireless charger, since they are a dime a dozen. I’ve had some issues with it actually charging as it seems that it doesn’t charge properly the charger itself seems to stop after a few second s and you have to reposition it.

I found a trick to help it charge properly. Use a credit card or room key, plastic card. Position it between the bottom of the watch and the charger itself and kinda move it around till you find the correct position and it will find a good connection, and charge properly.

This method works for me so, maybe it will for someone else.

The wireless charger pad is a Just Wireless model 04070.
[Samsung Gear S2] Mainow:
Fried my Gear S2

So, I lost my wireless charger, and i thought it would be a good idea to try charging my watch on one of my colleagues' Samsung charging pad.

I should have come here first :(

I just saw the pad light up blue and my watch told me "goodbye", so I assumed all was well. I turned around and came back an hour later to a piping hot watch.

Dead as a doornail. Looks like i definitely toasted it.

I let it cool off for a while and then tried turning it on. Nothing. At one point I pressed the power button for long enough to get the screen to flash up "rebooting" for just half a second or so. Nothing after that. That happened to me twice and now I can't get it to do anything.

Any suggestions? I'm 99% certain I totalled it, but before it goes in the trash I thought I'd ask around here first.

If there's anyone out there reading this, let this be a warning: If Samsung's official statemtent is "it might work but no guarantees" that translates to "don't even think about it, you're likely to fry it."

Does the software Resco Audio Recorder work with the HTC Advantage to record both sides of a cell phone conversation? It is advertised to do so on certain Windows Mobile phones.

Thanks
[Advantage X7500, MDA Ameo General] bobflood:
Yes, I have Resco Audio Recorder running on my X7500 (WM6).

I would say that the recording volume is quite low - haven't found a way to alter that so far - but it does record both sides of a conversation.

Have RAC set to record to Storage Card in the 'background' - you just need to remember to check the 'calls' folder every now and again as quite a volme of files builds up in there !

would the nexus 5x offer any improvement in this area? or is this solely my networks issue?

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1up1up:
Many of us have been following the release of this phone very closely and most hardware questions have been answered by now but what about the front aesthetics? Are the placement of the speakers and size of bezels symmetric in design on top and bottom? After viewing photos and the hands-on videos on YouTube, I'm still unable to 100% discern the differences in the top and bottom bezels. I'm sure this probably isn't much of a big deal to most people (excluding myself) but I'm curious to know.

It's just one of those things that bothered me about my Nexus 6 and the new Moto X Pure Edition. There are probably also very good reasons as to why the bezel designs on those two phones aren't symmetric but then again, is it really that difficult to keep symmetry? I've got mine preordered and am keeping it regardless but it would bother me little. What are your thoughts and does someone have an answer?
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rubi76:
I'm with you, I think symmetry adds a lot to the beauty of a phone. The sony xperia line is a good example. The only way to know is - I guess- wait to have one in person..
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GetPatriotized:
Totally agree.

Most of my Android phones didn't have it except the Note 2, which was one reason why I got it over the S3 in 2012 (which imo has the worst).

[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mosincredible:
I agree. When watching video on anything, I want a symmetric & stereo experience. I hate that my G3 has a drastically different top & bottom bezel. This phone appearing to be symmetrical was a big part of my purchase decision.

Doing a very unscientific experiment (print screened the photo on the product page and copied into MS Paint) the top is 46 pixels and the bottom is 44 pixels. So possibly not symmetrical but very close.... assuming that picture is accurate :p

Try flashing the attached ZIP. This ZIP also sets SELinux labels after flashing. This might solve bootloops for some.

Didn't work for me though. The same result as what I mentioned. But I got to flashed my rom back so it's ok.

all know ;)

This is an old bug, we RXS talk already about this

But oke if you all get free ram then is it alright but some get bootloop, maybe due an old file but we have 2gb ram (Z2) and 3gb (Z3) and so much we dont get due the Android System usage.

[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PiousInquisitor:
That is for a specific contact. Where are you seeing media? Are your contacts associated with your Google account. When I go to a contact, hit the pencil, hit the menu button at the top right of the screen, select Set Ringtone, then I get that menu.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frogbite:
When I do this, it asks me which program I want to use. I have two choices, both "Media" and "ES File Exploer". If I select "Media" is can see what is selected. On older versions in the contact view, I could see the ringtone selected for the contact.

For me to make the ringtone available to "Media", I first need to add it as a ringtone selecting "ES File Exploer". Once I do this, when I look at "Media" after selecting edit, I can see the ringtone, but not before.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PiousInquisitor:
So you don't like going to the set ringtone menu to see what is selected? I guess that's annoying. But that is how it's done now, AFAIK.
