[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jswede:
Quick charge rates are designed around the capability of the battery. I have extensive experience with system design around rechargeable cells of all major chemistries, and the large batteries currently used in phones can be charged at much higher rates simply because there is more surface area (more mAh) that in older phones. Quick Charge will never charge at a rate unsafe for your battery. Your battery is more likely to fail from simply age or damage due to a drop as opposed to quick charging.

The bigger the battery, the higher the acceptable charging current. At over 3000 mAh, the Axon 7 battery can safely be charged at a very high current.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] jlomein:
Absolutely correct, like my previous post, but not an answer to the question asked. I agree that since the capacity is high at 3250mAh, a constant C-rate of 1.0C (up to 3250mA charge current) is safe. However the question is not about safety, but longevity of performance.

Lowering the charging C-rate to 0.5-0.8C could potentially mean the difference of good battery capacity performance for 1 year versus 1.5-2 years.

With Ampere I've observed the charge current on the Axon with QC3.0 charger as high as 3200mAh. At 1C, that's perfectly safe, but less than ideal for battery longevity. We're simply looking for an alternative at a lower C-rate of 0.5-0.8C.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] Bucatino:
So, is better a 5V- 1A than the original QC of axon?

I charge it in the night when i sleep, and I don't need a quick charge during the day.
[ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers] celoxocis:
Explained In short and ELI5.

If you charge ~300( charge cycles) times with the QC3 you will lose ~10% battery capacity.

10% off 3250mah is 325mah.

So roughly (depending on usage) after a year you will lose 325mah from your battery.

If you charge slow it is prolonged.

ok, I want to use this phone for 2/3 years =)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dufbp:
Hi;

after 5 years, my Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 (intl) had your last breath suddenly. One day, after have experimented a very slow functioning, I took off its battery (as always), and after then it did not powered on anymore. Nothing, not even any sign of life. Neither charging icon, nor adb response.

I was using the last cyanogen's lollipop nightly for a while, at least 1 year. Sometimes the battery used to get hot, but the average performance was always good. Well, I tought, "this cyanogen may had required too much from hardware, and its lifespan was gone after 5 years... so, ok!"

But curiously, and at the very same time, after I installed the Nightyowl's version of Cyanogen 13(?) (certanilly Marshmallow) on a buddy's Samsung Galaxy Note 1 N7000, after the "day 1" the device had gone, on that same way.

Have you fellows any idea of what happened?

Thank you, beloved community, always;

Ed.

PS.: Forgot to say that on both cases, the internal SD of devices were re-partitioned with success.

i have tried restore truepure which i came from, but now i have no wifi or bluetooth...

update-fixed wifi but bluetooth not working, slider keeps turning "off"

thx in advance

pls, any suggestions?

thx
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] acejavelin:
Flash modems from the stock image that matches yours... otherwise just reflash the latest complete stock image via fastboot, verify operation and start modifying again.

BTW, you are not "bricked"... true bricked means the device is dead, nothing, no display no boot no connectivity. Seems like people don't understand what bricked means anymore. If it will boot and you can get to it with fastboot or access recovery, your not bricked. Even the term "soft bricked" means the device isn't bootable, but can have software flashed.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tiltyoself:
hi, new member here.

bought my tilt on 10/4/07. has been flawless since that time.

used the nav quite a bit during a road trip, used a cig lighter usb charger.

got home and my battery was at roughly 40%.

put it on the charger at night went to sleep. in morning disconnected it at 8 am. shortly after i arrived at work i got the critical battery low chime. checked and it had like 7% battery life.

figured i didnt plug it in right, or it got knocked loose some how and didnt get charged.

put it in flight mode to minimize battery usage. left work at 2 30 pm (4% battery life) and put it on the car charger. got home and put it on the HTC supplied wall charger. light turned amber, so i assumed it was charging.

checked an hour later and turned phone on, it said 0%, and immediately died. left it on the charger for a few hours and the light was still amber, turned it back on and again 0% and phone immediately died and did a soft reset on its own. i turned the phone off and left it on the ac charger, took out the sim card and put it in an old blackberry to use while the battery was charging.

its been on the ac wall charger for the last several hours, i checked and the phone is totally dead, cannot turn it on, and the LED at the top is now RED.

what is the problem here? why wont this thing charge?

thanks in advance, i have alot of critical info on this device and any help would be greatly appreciated.

i cannot hard reset because i cannot turn the flippign thing on....

:( :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Lidberg:
Does it charge when you connect it to your computer? If it does, then your charger is toast. If not, then it's probably the phone itself.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sherpa:
I'd try a different charger first. If that makes no difference then a different battery. If that still does not make any difference then time to exchange it.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tiltyoself:
connected to either the computer or the wall charger, the LED thats normally amber when charging, and green when charged, remains red.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] kireol:
I had something very similar happen to my wizard.

And as weird as it sounds, the only fix was to charge the battery in a friends wizard on his charger. I'd check the battery if possible.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Jim_R:
Could be the battery. Know any place or anyone that will let you try a charged battery? If not, you might have to go in to an AT&T store.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tiltyoself:
i think i got it working. did some reading/browsing...

took a usb wire and cut the mini usb head off. dissected it and found the the red and black charging wires. took out the battery and held the leads to teh battery while the other end was plugged into a USB/AC adapter wall charger from a old blackberry. after manually charging the battery for several minutes, i put the battery back in the phone and the phone started up. now it seems to be charging off the wall charger and the led is now amber from red.

thanks for all your help/suggestions.:)
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tiltyoself:
well it worked briefly. the amber light has gone back to red and it seems that the battery is not charging.

dont know what happened to my perfectly functioning phone. :confused:
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Stinkeymole:
Repeat this proceedure but this time do not turn the phone on, just plug it in to the wall charger once you have zapped the battery again.

Turning your phone on probably just caused the already recovering battery to die whiles it is trying to take on a charge.

It is mentioned quite a lot on the boards that Li-Ion Batteries do not like being over disscharged and there is usually a little protection circuit in the battery to provent complete disscharging although this circuit may be on board the phone. Completely disscharging a Li-Ion cell will kill it stone dead and it will need replacing.

When you took the battery out and so called jump started it with your flying leads, this possibly reset the little protection circuit in the battery so it can now take on a charge. I feel that once you turned on the phone, this was to much for the already depleted cell to take and possibly re-tripped its inbuilt circuit.

If you do manage to recover you cell, in future it is good practice not to let the battery go below about 25%. Li-ion cells are generally happy being top off regularly.

I hope this helps buddy

Do let us know!

Cheers

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] tiltyoself:
thanks, that was very helpful.

ive tried defibrillating this battery out of the dead several more times to no avail.

ill try it one more time when i get home from work, if its a no go i will go to teh att core store. the phone is 6 weeks old, dont know what they can do for me if the battery is toast...

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] muks11:
I had exactly the same problem with my battery. It came on though after a day. Although the battery life after this happened went down to 10hrs max on standby. I sent the phone back and got a new one and now all is fine.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] MikeChannon:
This is a problem that affects almost all makes of phone. There are three (main) causes of the problem:

1.

The battery charge drops too low to allow the charging circuit to recognise a battery is even in place (red no charge light stays lit)

possible solution:

http://xdaforums.com/show...22&postcount=6

(in the end very similar in the end to the USB wire used in post above)

2.

A faulty battery (but if you can charge it using a cut usb cable or using a couple of AA batteries this may not be a faulty battery.

3.

A faulty charger OR a charger not delivering 5v at 1000mA as the OEM one does. Many chargers that are used for other phones or generic chargers only deliver 500mA. This is not enough when your battery drops very low. (these chargers are OK for occasional use but I do not advise using them regularly particularly if the no-charge syndrome has shown itself)

4.

A faulty USB connection on the phone. I have now seen a couple of reports where the fine wire connections in the phones USB port have become bent out of place.

Number 4 above is at least possible for the OP as it seems the battery will charge using a cut USB cable but not when either the PC USB cable or mains charger is connected. A USB port on the phone with a a bent internal contact would explain what's happening.

A previous poster was able with a needle or similar to bend the contact back into place.

[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] igor999:
i had the same problem with my phone.

put it in the charger overnight and woke up in the morning and couldnt turn on the phone with blinking red light. I don't know if my battery was over-drained though. I went to AT&T and was playing around with their charger and new battery and somehow the so-called dead battery started working again. They changed the SIM card on my phone there and then i haven't been able to use the phone since. I've changed the network to GSM instead of Auto setting under Phone Options which allows us to make calls; but now I can't connect to 3G network.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] rcnomad:
Charging thru mini usb

My phone started to exhibit similar problems...plugged in but no charging of the battery. I finally realized that my mini usb connection on the phone has been compromised (bent, distorted=not functioning properly) Now I have to prop the mini usb connection up at a slight angle to engage the charge. I think the plastic/metallic connector on the phone is somewhat fragile ...I had similar issues with my hermes.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] Haskren:
Bit of a strange request. The screen on my S7 Edge died today. Phone works fine otherwise. Problem is I use Android Pay to get on the train - no cards or money on me so I'm stuck. Android Pay only works if the phone is unlocked - now after a restart, it is asking me for the code (which is 4444) instead of the finger print - I just need to see where number 4 and OK is located on the numeric screen to unlock it, so if someone could post a screen grab, that would be helpful.

[Note 7 Questions & Answers] AcostaJA:
The Note line still its Android true iPhone killer, the only problem is that it doesn't kill you too.

Before Samsung assures they pinpoint the fire or burning cause, they should relaunch an new Note 7 different enough to the recognized at plain sight.

I think the best chance they have to preserve the Note legacy is to resurrect the flat screen note (if some one just look at the new Galaxy A8 should agree this should be the basis of the next Note phone).

And revamp it's specification as native Android 7 (with background updates) and 6 gb of ram on a body slightly thicker to accommodate the same reliable battery as the S7 edge but on a more usable flat screen (the edge don't help the s-pen), remove the edge related useless bloat and leave only the s-pen related features and the Irish scanner.

Name it note 7 classic or whatever

Also a price drop to 750$ (same as base iPhone 7+ and Pixel XL with 32gb a bump to 64gb and 6gb of ram at same price it's competitors )

This is the one I'll buy again w/o seeing back.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] BozQ:
Yes, I hope so too. I've been looking around for a possible alternative, but none come close to what I want from the Note 7. I am considering whether to risk using this phone despite the recall.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] MintiIceCream:
And the Note 7 is officially discontinued T.T
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Illusive Man:
From a business standpoint, I think we will not see the Note 7 again. Once Samsung has ironed out the issues they will re-release it with another name. For a long time consumers will associate the moniker "Note 7" with the exploding phone. Re-using the name would be a mistake. Samsung will work hard to fix the problem and try to clean up the Note image.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] AcostaJA:
No body doubts the Note 7 was the best Android device of this year, but it sad fate doesn't mean the end of the "Note" brand obviously the next Note shoul be meaningfull different both external and internal to break with this accident.

An good strategy for samsung could be to resurrect the Flat-Screen note 7 prototype they tested along the edge variant, and provide it the same reliable internals as the S7 Edge, specially the batter (bigger and non-exploding) and carefully audit the USB-C chargue system and the Irirs scanner the only actual diffrentiators (beside form factor choices) among S7 Edge and the note 7.

Also I think they should start to ready it for production ASAP before Xmas.

Whatever I'm getting an S7 duos flat BTW.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] Illusive Man:
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to imply the end of the Note line, but the end of the "Note 7". The could re-release as the Note 8 (continue the Note line but skip over the 7). I should have been more clear.
[Note 7 Questions & Answers] evo4g63t:
They'll most certainly continue the line Samsung would be stupid not to; the phone is literally in a league of its own.
