[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadMrRobbot:
First of all SORRY for my english , and hope you people undestand somthing .

Hello all , i just brick my device using advanced power menu .

Things was like this :

Room : borets ...custom-stok 184 room with flare x kenel ;

1 fooling arrownd with xposed modules , kenel auditor , frezeng some stock aps .. nothig happends.. even efter reboot 3 -4 time

2 Instalind APM module .. activate advanced power menu , activate passoword on power menu ... = Fu cke d up...

Frome now phone screen is turned off, like forever , and reboot randomly , sometimes appees only boot screen logo , somtimes boot for a while ,

BUT never boot when i press the power button .

3 I disassembly the phone , til i reach the battery cable .. I disconect the battery ... and i try to discharge the capacitors by touching the motherboard with a plate of copper . But still nothing , after putting the batery back phone vibrate for a second and nothing ...

4 > (BACK ALIVE !! ) I just turn on asus flash tool , connect the phone , charging apper ( battery is full ) then the screen goes black , led blinker also is turn off.. and after that i disconnect and conect again until the phone is start booting .. and finaly is turning on .. the software is working ...almost normaly ... and sometimes appers only the lockscreen for one second and after is ded again sometime room work only a minute ..and sometimes is fully working .. Somehow i delete the APM module , soft reboot worcks , reboot to bootloader (from rom tool box ) works , but i can't flash raw firmware , it's say update falied .. and reboot to recovery dosen't worck at all , or is appering only for one second.

5 After , pug and unpug the battery and go on after 10 minutes of trying ... i have a semi functional phone , terminal emulator worcks , root is present ...but if i let the phone to go into sleep .. sometimes is never turn on again..or is just die.

So i can flash in the room ifwi ,dnx and droidboot , or replace some files with root explorer ...to worck again ... or What to do ?

I can't follow unbrick tutorial because the 191 drivers dosent work in my windows 10 ....
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kojata:
Flash xposed disabler or something like this than wipe cash and dalvik and reboot. If it shows android is upgrading wait and all must be cool.
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadMrRobbot:
I can't go in recovery ..

New status , i aplied files from unbrick tutorial , but i don't know if i doit right , the process is completed is rebooting to OS, is rebooting in os, but the xftsk still shows wating for divice til device was not found . bootloader worck's , somehow , i can navigate in it with volume buttons but i cant press anything with power button ,

i flash a raw firmware with asus flash tool , but stil reboots somtimes , and power button dosent work in room wehen i pres power button , the device is briking again and dosent boot or reboot randomly .

Adb works , but by tiping adb reboot recovey , is not booting in recovery ...

I thing i mesed up some things in power menu files , (a few times by simply navigate in root folder i saw some folder and file about power menu ) .

now i have flashed borets24 sistem raw firmware ... but same problem , if i press power button is ding , and only way to boot back is by puting the charger in and pres power..

Is possible to delete / re-rwite the hole root folder ? By adb or fastboot ?
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kojata:
So if you can access bootloader flash latest .184 boot.img, recovery.img, droidboot.img and then sideload the full rom
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MadMrRobbot:
Can you put a link with img files ?

I flashed a full room with flash tool but , still same problem , power button dosent work , and when i try to use it , is bricking the room .
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kojata:
Just google it man. This i found in the first googling http://www.asus-zenfone.com/2015/12/how-to-downgrade-asus-zenfone-2-firmware.html . You can do these steps and than upgrade to latest lollipop or M if you like. Be careful with fastboot flashing though cause many people mistyped the droidboot and hard bricked their devices
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vibo69:
hello, i have the same problem with my LG D605.

i cant turn it on. it doesnt even react to charger. the only thing i managed to do is turn it on in download mode and start flashing stock rom... but it turns off in random times when i trying to flash.

did u managed to fully unbrick yours? and how?

..or maybe this turn offs is just low battery thing (?)
[ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sukhwant717:
as you stated you tried to flash raw.. so you don't need any other files. just extract the raw firmware with winrar. you will get desired files. if asus flash tool not able to flash raw. use fastboot commands to flash firmware.. follow the guide how to flash via commands in the following thread

Hi guys,

I am looking for a power bank for my HTC 10 . . . I prefer a more compact pack, so far I liked :

&

https://www.amazon.co.uk/RAVPower-1...00OJXVDAU/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

Should I go for the bigger capacity or for the QC2 ?

Of course other recommendations are welcomed :)

Thanks
[HTC 10 Accessories] Deleted member 739586:
I own an Anker PowerCore+ 10050mAh which is compact and has a decent build quality. It is QC 2.0, dunno whether a QC 3.0 variant exists. On the other hand, QC3 is only superior by roughly 15% IIRC.
[HTC 10 Accessories] Andyw2100:
There is a QC 3.0 version. (I've been considering purchasing it.) For now, the prices on Amazon are even the same:

There are theoretical bull**** talk and allegations and there's real life usage.. ?

[HTC 10 Accessories] jauhien:
Bro, charging from 2A port feels like 19th century experience.. when we're in hTc 10's xda forum..

Sent from quite brutal hTc 10 ..
[HTC 10 Accessories] One Twelve:
Right, let's unpack what you said.

Any power bank has rated mah at a specific voltage, mostly around 3.7V.

So for a 10kmah battery we get 10k x 3.7 = 37 watt hours

But the phone will require 5V to charge at a minimum. That means 37/5 = 7.4k mah

Under ideal conditions that is the capacity remaining. There are efficiency losses on top which will reduce that figure.

If its a QC2 charger, then it will charge at 9V. Which works out to 4k mah. remember the efficiency losses again.

So QC2 10kmah battery pack will charge HTC 10 from 0-100 one time and have some left. Or two times 50-100%. If the temperature is not above 32 degrees C it will work well. Above that maybe not so fast.

If its non QC2, make that twice as many times. For something light this can work.

I am thinking that QC2/3 is fine if you are charging from mains, or car charger but comes with a cost if its from a battery pack. A pack that can be quick charged is better than one that cannot be and still better if it does not quick charge the phone.

If its 20Ah, non QC then 74Wh battery or 14.8 mah, after efficicency close to 14k mah.

4 full charges. 5V, upto 2.4A is good.

if its QC2, 2 full charges and change
[HTC 10 Accessories] jauhien:
Thank you! It's quite rare in these forums to read someone whose technical knowledge exceeds the Arithmetic..

Sent from quite brutal hTc 10 ..
[HTC 10 Accessories] ro_explorer:
I have to disagree with some of the info. Power is power. No matter how you convert it and from how many cells it comes from, it is still power. The converters nowadays have an efficiency between 85 and 98%... so let's assume the average of 90%. So, for a power bank of (like you said) 10k mAh powered by a single li-ion element (average 3.7V) you get 37Wh power. Take 10% away and you remain with 33.3Wh.

The phone battery (HTC 10) is 3000mAh with a single cell design (3.7V). This means roughly 10Wh. So, you still have 3 full charges there.

The QC compatible chargers usually have multi-cell design so there is no need for a buck converter (voltage raiser). A 3 cells design (11.1 V) will be enough for QC 2.0 and a 4 cells design will meet QC 3.0 standard. And a normal. 18150 Li-ion cell (the most common type used nowadays in these chargers) can deliver 3000mAh w/o a problem (the good ones).

Again, power is power. You can convert it (with a certain efficiency) but the power is still there and gets transferred. The "lost" power is actually transformed into heat.

[HTC 10 Accessories] jauhien:
I say that 20Ah real life power bank purchased via real retailer and operated thru QC2 technology can charge hTc 10 which has 3 Ah built-in battery - up to 2.5 times in real life (and I know it from experience)..

He said - 2 times in real life (what is very close)

You disagreed and typed a bunch of stuff.. Can you just clearly state "how many times" real life power bank 20 Ah would charge in real life hTc 10 by QC tech..?

Sent from quite brutal hTc 10 ..
[HTC 10 Accessories] One Twelve:
Can you tell us how many full charges or the equivalent you can get from the PC+ 10050 ?

It has only one port so you have no choice but to accept QC2.
[HTC 10 Accessories] TheMadcapl:
You are right, power is power. What [MENTION=5512893]One Twelve[/MENTION] said seems wrong. Power banks have lithium ion batteries (18650) so they are in 3.7 volts, lets think about one with 10.000 mah and 3.7 volt, they actually change between 4.2v and 3v but I am going to ignore that. Phone input is 5v and convertion here seems right, 3.7v 10k mA = 5v 7.4k mA . However you are missing a point. Your phone battery is li-poly and it is 3.7 volt as well, so power banks 10k mAh equals to 3 times 3.2k mAh phone battery. There will be bunch of conversions though, firs there is a step up circuit 3.7 to 5 volt on powerbank and then there will be step down inside 5 to 3.7 inside the phone. There will be loss on conversions, also there will be loss on cable and while you are charging your phone will consume some energy too unless it is turned off. Everything included I am able to charge my note 2 2 full times with my 10050 man Xiaomi power bank. I think after 10k mAh it starts beeing inconvenient.
[HTC 10 Accessories] One Twelve:
My source is here

http://www.tp-link.com/en/faq-741.html

As a result of the

test thread

i used the info of voltage for QC2 and then made the calculation.
[HTC 10 Accessories] TheMadcapl:
Your source seems wrong, what you are charging is 3.7v as well, hence it doesnt make sense to convert mAh value to 5 volts, unless that tplink is charging something exactly 5 volts.
[HTC 10 Accessories] One Twelve:
You cant charge a phone with less than 5V. Use a usb power meter with any phone and see for yourself.

I find it remarkable that company that also sells power banks would have such an informative faq on setting expectations for their products.
[HTC 10 Accessories] TheMadcapl:
Yes, I explained it detailed in my first post. There would be a step up and then step down conversion, 3.7 -> 5 -> 3.7 . Thus in the end it is same 10k mAh.
[HTC 10 Accessories] One Twelve:
But I agree with your figure

2 full charges with stated 10k mah with non QC. Plus a little left in the bank.

Not 3 full charges, that is the point. As is being contended below by ro_explorer from 10k mah

What is wrong with the estimation I gave. It gives a figure close to your real life experience :)

If power is power and 3.7 is stepped to 5v and back down to 3.7, why aren't you getting 3 full charges from your power bank ?

There is no QC2 on the note 2 so its better. Maybe slower but you get more out of it.

What i wonder is how well the power bank can charge when you are using the device. Say you are watching youtube or using GPS. Can your Xiaomi charge more than you consume ?

Is a QC2 power bank really necessary in this case or can one get away with non QC.
[HTC 10 Accessories] ro_explorer:
A high quality 20mAh power bank should be able to charge the HTC 10, 0-100%, up to 6 times (considering some power loss due to conversion). A QC similar charger will go down in number of charges to probably 4-5 times due to high power loss through heat but, on the bright side, you charge 80% in 30 minutes.

-= Sent from a parallel universe through a wormhole =-
[HTC 10 Accessories] TheMadcapl:
There is always some loss, I just tried to explain reason of that.

Note 2 has a sloppy USB port, thus I am not able get a healthy connection every time, if connection is solid it gets up to 1.5A with Xiaomi and short USB cable. So yes, it charges while actively using.

QC shouldn't effect the capacity. Let's say my Xiaomi charges my phone 2.2 times. I highly doubt that this number would decrease if my power bank charges it with QC 2.0. Some. People are saying their 20k bank charges only 2.5 times, well I wouldn't believe that without seeing maybe low quality, old, used 18650 cells used thatoght be the reason of it. I would have test it with constant current load.

Since I think there will be no difference I would definetely get a power bank that supports quick charge. Faster, better. Btw I guess efficiency gets lower as phone battery gets full. So if you want more of it, you might want to try it to charge only %50 of phone battery. I wonder how many cycle would there if you try it %0 - %50 - %0 - %50 and compare it to %0 - %100 - %0 - %100.
[HTC 10 Accessories] ro_explorer:
When using QC the battery gets hot (usually). That energy is obviously lost, therefore a decreased overall efficiency on power transfer. I exaggerated with dropping from 6 to 4 times earlier.

On other note, my 3 years old 10000mAh power bank still charges my HTC 10 2 times, 0-100%.

-= Sent from a parallel universe through a wormhole =-
[HTC 10 Accessories] jauhien:
Exactly!

10 Ah power bank charges hTc 10 - two times.. Correct - because it does not support QC 2.0.. in case it does it will charge hTc 10 - one time..

And it is very obvious WHY - when hTc 10 is being charged by QC 2.0 or 3.0 it's getting very hot, and that heat is nothing else as electricity from the power bank..

More over no one counts the self discharge and measures FULL capacity which exists in the moment of unplugging only.. hehe.. in real life no one would utilize power bank straightway after unplugging from the grid..

All your electricity inverting theories laid out here may described with one single word - crap..

Anyhow when you mentioned the real life facts from your experience - you've been honest..

Sent from quite brutal hTc 10 ..
[HTC 10 Accessories] ro_explorer:
How much power do you think is lost by heat? Just out of curiosity.

Answer: not even close to 10W (one full charge for HTC 10). Maybe 1, worst case 2Wh are wasted during QC.

As for self discharge.... Li-ion have a shelf life of 10 years. In real life, self discharge of these cells is negligible.
