So it seems our device is compatible with qualcomms quick charge 3.0 tecnology. That said, i was a bit lost on which charger to get as a spare one so i figure id create this topic to share what i found and maybe hear some recommendations and from where to buy them.

ps: Im linking single port chargers but most of these 3rd party chargers have 2+ ports options available. Im also trying to stick with official sites at first but would like to include other sources

and prices

in the near future. If you'd like to contribute with a link and/or recommendation id love to include it in this list. Maybe ill start a pool about the brands if this gets enough traction

What should be kept in mind whilst buying a charger

* Chargers can be dangerous. Shady brands can blow themselves, your phone or start a fire

Official Chargers

UCH20

* Output 5V/1500 mA

* This is the one tha comes with our device. It is not a quickcharge 3 charger but imho is a good charger

UCH12

* Output (???)

* Fully supports QC3 and XperiaXC

3rd Parties

DISCLAIMER: I havent personally used any of these and cant vouch for them. I tried to gather the best ones available though.

* from what i was able to research so far, it seem that the most common issue with them is for them to stop working after a few months (or not work at all on arriving) so keep that in mind if you're thinking about importing one.

Aukey

PA-T9

*It seemed to be a good one from amazon reviews but some pics of an exploding PAT9 made me wary about them

Anker

* Anker seems to be well known and respected.

* Their branding is somewhat confusing though, i couldnt figure what was the difference from "PowerPort" to "PowerPort+"

* there seems to be some controversy about their chargers and usb Type-C:

a. Most of their Type-C chargers are "currently unavailable" (1) (2) on amazon

b. Reading about their powerport+1 made me dubious if they actually can charge our XXC. Im starting to think those issues are specifically for devices that dont support QC3, so in theory our XXC would charge fine, but i cant confirm atm.

PowerPort 2

* don't know much about it yet

PowerPort+ 1

* oddly i couldnt find just the charger on ankers official site so link is from amazon

* seems to be the best bet and bang for the buck, this amazon review really sells its features (safety stuff, smart to detect how to charge which device) but im not sure about how biased it is

* was able to find US/EU plugs on aliexpress but i don't know if it is advisable to buy chargers from there (can chargers be counterfeited? :confused: )

Tronsmart

WC1T

* dont know anything about it atm

* aparently US/EU/GB plugs available

HERE is a link to a qualcomms list on QC3 smartphones and chargers, which oddly doesn't list our XXC

im also linking this xda thread that got me started on the subject)

Cables

Some of the chargers above doesnt come with included cables so i figure i'd make a cables index aswell.

*nothing here yet

End notes

This is it for now, hope this was somewhat helpful and that it'll help to grow our Sony XXC community.

Feel free to contribute in any way you'd like and etc.

Thanks.

I just got my US X Compact off Amazon and I can confirm that it comes with the UCH12 - specs:

5V - 2700mA

9V - 1800mA

12V - 1350mA

Can anyone recommend a good portable power bank? Looking for something with low capacity (~5000)

I didn't bother paying the extra for QC3.0, 2.0 worked fine (and the phone still gets pretty warm when charging). I have the Aukey QC 2.0 car charger and the Cheotech QC 2.0 multiple socket mains charger and both work great. I used to use an Anker non quick charge multiple socket charger and it wasn't as good. I had to keep unplugging and plugging it in as the intelligent chip inside it would turn the power off to a socket once a device had charged and then not come on again!
[Sony Xperia X Compact Accessories] sappermajor:
Bought one off e-bay works OK

I bought one off e-bay have it by my bedside and it charges phone pretty quickly.

was dubious but I bought a currant meter and the two marked 2.4 A seem to supply about 2 Amps and the one marked QC3 about 5 A dont know how they do it may not be legit but works for me. Presumably they don't have a Qualcomm licence

[Sony Xperia X Compact Accessories] SANGER_A2:
I can confirm the Transmart Titan Plus 90W (U5TF) works in quick charge mode with my Sony Compact X. Tested with Ampere and also just comparing how quickly it charges to non QC chargers (and also to my old QC2.0 charger). Luckily it also quick-charges my Huawei tablet using their Huawei FCP protocol too.

I wasn't happy with the fact that it ONLY does quick-charge as I'm sure constant high current/voltage charging won't help my battery-life - but if I connect the devices using this adapter, it disables quick-charge (must only connect the + and - connections and not the ones used for data).

Hi all little advice my brother got his s8+ he used his old number for time being then got his new number the problem is when we use chat it comes up with his old number not his new one is there anyway to change it to his new one?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] pinetreehater:
This is probably on your carrier, not the phone. Same thing happened to me. I would get text on one number but mms and pictures on my other line. Sprint fixed it.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] NGP-1001:
Hello everyone,

I have been receiving notifications for OTA updates for Epic ROM Stable however I can't seem to find any way to install these.

I am really confused as in the settings it says the ROM is up to date and no updates are available.

Anyone else have this issue or idea how to complete these.

It is a really good ROM and I must be missing something here.

Your help is greatly appreciated
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxster:
Ok.. so I've been doing some investigating. These are virtually the same hardware. Qualcomm Processor, 3GB RAM, same sound, video, etc chips.

Sprint has enabled the FM radio in their unit .. Nobody in Canada has.

How can we extract what Sprint did for their model so I can do it on mine? Or can I just flash a P rom on this unit? That seems like a no-go but then I can't see any physical difference between the two units.

Thanks for whatever advice is out there..
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron74:
I'm not a dev. But i do some modding. I think that's all software related. So either pull the correct files from a Sprint Rom with proper csc setup. Or flash a sprint Rom with your kernel and data fix. Either way might work.

Just don't do anything blindly. Make a complete backup of phone and do some more research. Best advice i have! Good luck!
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron74:
I don't have time but from what looking i did. Try adding this to the others.xml file in csc folder:

<CscFeature_Common_SupportNextRadio>TRUE</CscFeature_Common_SupportNextRadio>

And this file attached into framework folder:.

I'm not for sure this is all you need but i believe these have to do with it.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxster:
THANKS!

So you are right on the money. I've spent the day comparing identical versions of the same software release. One from SPRINT the other a Canadian carrier's version of the same ROM.

These are the two biggest catches I've run across. There maybe a few minor points, but I'm not sure how relevant they are. So I'm going to start here. A painful sense of 'this is somehow controlled via a kernel setting' lingers but.. to those willing to risk it all, bla bla bla.. here we go!

I'll report back shortly.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron74:
:good: let me know.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron74:
How it coming? Get it working?

I'm not by my pc, but i noticed files pertaining to this in the following system folders:

/lib

/etc/permissions

/framework

/csc edits.

Might want to check other folders in /etc also, like firmware.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxster:
I've found files in those same folders that bear relevance. And further, there's a system level android permission :

android.permission.ACCESS_FM_RADIO

And then.. the final point - the sticky-wicket -- probably some change in the kernal to support all of the above.

I continue to tinker -- no success yet.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aaron74:
I've just recently tried also, even on a sprint phone. No go yet.

It must be all software related. As i stated, I'm even on n910p but what I'm trying to accomplish is running a gsm rom on it. So that proves in missing software. Hopefully for you it isn't built into the framework files. Might be kernel. I'll try. Let you know.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] knoxster:
In comparing the DPK1 rom between Sprint and Rogers.. other than the areas I've mentioned .. much of it appears to be the same.

My goal here is to know a) if it's in the kernel or just all in the standard software.

My gut says i'ts NOT in the kernel.. but

[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cloudraker:
Ok so I did a quick search and didn't see anything but I'm working so I didn't try too many variations.

Anyways, when I open a folder that I have in my edge panel, it automatically opens the keyboard every single time. It is probably the most irritating issue I have and I logically see no reason for it. The problem becomes more irritating when you have more than 6 items in a folder. The keyboard covers most of the bottom row of icons so you have to close it before selecting what you want. Is this the way it's supposed to work? Is there a way to disable it?
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] dakalter:
I don't personally use the apps edge panel but I added it to test this and I do not get the keyboard popup on either the Samsung keyboard or Google keyboard.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cloudraker:
Alright, I've figured it out. Apparently it's a bug caused by changing the dpi which makes no sense but I'll roll with it. My dpi was set to 480 and when I put it back to default of 411 it doesn't do it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] gobraves00:
Can't u just move the bar to edge panel up to top of the phone? I made mine smaller and moved to top, no issues.
[Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers] cloudraker:
The issue isnt the location of the edge panel. I can swipe the edge panel out fine and everything is just peachy. However, when i tap a folder on the edge panel, the folder opens but for some reason so does the keyboard. So, when a folder contains more than 6 items, the bottom row is covered by the keyboard. That means you cant click on that row, and the keyboard doesnt close without tapping the back button. Basically its a nuisance thats not worth the trouble. I prefer everything small but will have to live with it. Im going to try other DPI settings and see what the max is before this bug presents itself.

hi evreyone,

ive bought a nexus 6p about a year ago and it had that battary issue

a few days ago my phone worked fine and all ou a sudden it completly froze and enterd a bootloop

ive tried evreything

i try to get ot the recovery but i cant, and my bootloader is lock so my option are limits

and i tried nexus toolkit but i couldnt make it work it said no adb device was found or something like that

please help me
[Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jhs39:
There isn't likely anything you can do. The 6P has a boot loop of death issue that it is impossible to recover from. There are multiple threads specifically dedicated to it and a pending class action lawsuit concerning the issue. Some people have reported that they were able to RMA their device out of warranty with Huawei or Google. (depending on where it was purchased) since it is a known issue but others have not been so lucky. I would look for the threads dedicated to the boot loop issue and to the lawsuit for more information. What happened to you has happened to a lot of people. These phones have serious build issues.

So through many things this morning.

im in the middle of trying to rebuild my crumbling chimney top. trying to google crap and the thing lagging like hell.

I got in one of those moods and chucked my g4 as hard as i could at the ground. In its case and of coarse destroyed the phone. decimated the lcd. Frame bent over a pretty good ways ...... take that lg.

Cracked the mother board up near the noise cancel mic and earpiece. a hairline crack. But still a good size crack. Ripped a few screws out

warped the battery.

and believe it or not i put a old lcd with frame i had with a cracked outer glass . put the mb in the new old lcd

i ripped the rear camera flex cable bein rough and put all back together.

And sure as crap lg sticks it to me again this thing wont die.... I put my sim card back in mem card nothing

knock on. ear piece speaker phone. all the radios everything works. All but the stinking flex cable for rear main camera. And technicly its the flex to the auto focus on the camera not the module itself.

My lg g4 is fricking immortal will not die.

Make me wanna throw it again out of fear.

kinda scares me.

sorry for ranting on

[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
Hello All I purchased a refurbished Urbane 2 LTE (W200A) from here .

I put in a T-Mobil SIM but it will not work, under SIM status says out of service, T-Mobil checked the IMEI # and says it is fine but might be carrier locked?

Any thoughts/ideas on this issue?

Cheers,
[LG Watch Urbane] nigelhealy:
Welcome! I've had mine now about 2 weeks.

I bought an UB2 which was unlocked.

I had the same problem. Reboot the watch made it work in my case.

I have a T-Mobile and ATT SIMs. The ATT SIM worked right away, the T-Mobile would not work right away but rebooting the watch made it work. Now that could have been coincidence, say T-Mobile takes a while before it lets an unknown IMEI into its network?

Hopefully that fixes it for you.

Next, I spent a time experimenting, moving around with the ATT and T-Mobile SIMs. I found the lack of the lower frequency bands meant it often ends up easily offline, not even 2G, that problem was more common on T-Mobile than it was on ATT.

I also found when using LTE the battery is pretty bad, whilst BT or Wifi tethered to the mobile I lose about 5% an hour, so does a reasonable job of lasting through the day, on LTE I was losing 25% an hour so 4 hours. Once I learned that, meant I'd not really be away from my phone for long periods, so I now know its more for brief periods when not having the phone is helpful. The classic use case would be running,, or short bike rides. Therefore I'd be really using it in case someone was to phone me (I use Google Voice), so given the ATT network benefit, I got a Truphone SIM which is free for incoming calls, and I use Hangouts for texting which uses less $ than sending a text. I also after having the Truphone SIM for some days learned the UB2 easily often loses the BT and Wifi signal and goes to LTE and so I was being charged for "accidental" use so I disable UB2 cellular altogether and enable when I deliberately are going without my phone.

$190 + shipping is a little high, you normally can get in the $180-$185 total including shipping on ebay. There is one for $172 but they charged state tax making it nearly $200, but I got this one for $185 and worked fine looks as-new in a slightly tatty box.
[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
Thanks for the feedback, I have rebooted many time and tried several sim cards., according to T-Mobil the IMEI is good for their network.

I got this for $169 so pretty good deal IMO.
[LG Watch Urbane] nigelhealy:
$169, excellent, just the link you gave says $190 now.

So I'd say from my experience where I live (northen California) that ATT would be a better bet for the UB2's bands. It may be the case T-mobile's frequencies in your area are not overlapping the very limited bands of the UB2. T-Mobile's primary band is 12 which the UB2 doesn't have. In my case if i were outdoors i could get LTE but indoors it would go to 2G. ATT however tended to stay on LTE more often when indoors.

The other option is yours is locked. I don't know how to tell if its locked. What does SIM status (settings, cellular, SIM status) say? My working UB2 shows Network: Truphone (what I have inserted presently) Signal strength: -112dBm 29 asu , Network type: LTE , service state in service,, roaming: not roaming, network state disconnected (as I'm on my BT to my phone). When I swipe down from watch face it shows as 1 or 2 LTE bars.

When I came across some lower priced units they were in fact locked, I saw units for $170 but in fact locked, and I was told you could buy an unlock code on ebay. A quick search now indicates you can buy for about $8
[LG Watch Urbane] mward1995:
I've yet to actually see a LGU2 that is locked. Some sellers assume they are but they usually aren't. I purchased mine directly from AT&T and it was never locked. The same for the Sport. Others have purchased from AT&T and used them on other providers. I guess it's possible for used watches that were activated on AT&T to be locked? Not sure though.

As far as battery usage on LTE, could it be a weak signal causing the problem? Without cellular on I use about 3%-4% an hour and when it's on I use around 5%-7% an hour. Of course if I take calls it will drain faster, but just idling doesn't affect it too much. I also set my preferred network to 3G because HSPA speeds are plenty fast enough for me and more readily available with strong signals in my area. I only exceed the 25% drainage per hour when I'm tracking runs with GPS. I have 3G on, bluetooth headphones for music and GPS tracking during runs. I can use 35% an hour running.

I only use 3G when I run so I haven't tested the data usage when i'm connected by BT. Most of the time 3G is off. I don't have GV and forward my calls to the watch during runs. I don't give out the watch's number so I don't have a reason to leave it on.
[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
OK I have this working now, I had to mess with settings a few times and disconnected BT for LTE to come up.

Now the only issue is when making calls now, if I try to make a call via watch, the call drops almost instantly, the cellular connections drops and I have to reboot to watch to get LTE to work again.
[LG Watch Urbane] nigelhealy:
I think T-Mobile and UB2 aren't good bed fellows. I'm thinking you drop down from LTE when making a call and its really reluctant to go back to LTE.

What happens if you change from LTE preferred to say 2G or 3G preferred?
[LG Watch Urbane] roebling:
Got T Mobile APNs loaded?
[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
Yes but is works but very sporadically, according to seller below, anyone have there phone working with add on account?

"The issue is not with the device it’s trying to use the device with Tmobile’s wearables add on. The device can be used as a standalone device as a new line with t-mobile, but if you are trying to use the wearables add on plan that won’t work.."
[LG Watch Urbane] nigelhealy:
That sounds fair. If it was a specific wearables T-Mobile plan you'd have to get a specific T-Mobile device. Mine worked on T-Mobile when move the SIM from my phone to the UB2. What I'm finding is the UB2 drops BT and then tends to go to LTE before Wifi and it pulls some data when no good reason, so disable cellular and enable cellular when standalone, lowers the bill.

I did phone up T-Mobile about wearables, I was considering the Samsung Gear S3, but it was plain bad value, they wanted $15/month to add a wearable, well the UB2's capabilities struggle to pull more than a few MB/day because otherwise it drains battery too much and it gets very hot and disconnects too often to use it for many calls. There are much better plans out there. I'm on Truphone which is based on ATT and mostly disable cellular when have my phone with me and enable when I leave the phone. I'm extrapolating about $5/month.
[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
So T-Mobile's wearable plan is $5 per month, but if it wont work on my UB2 then might as well be $15...
[LG Watch Urbane] nigelhealy:
You were quoted differently from me, I'm on a T-Mobile family plan, usually $20/month adding phone, asked to add a wearable, told $15. You were told $5?

Regardless if its $5, $15, $20, the UB2 can't pull much LTE through given its battery.
[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
Yes you are correct, after doing more research on this the $5 plan only will work with Samsung Gear S3, the LG Urbane requires a additional phone line like you were told...

So rather than pay the extra $$ per month, I will just pull my SIM out of my phone & us it in my watch if needed. I have tested this and it work perfectly.
[LG Watch Urbane] nigelhealy:
I moved existing Sims to learn of UB2 capabilities. The rotating rear cover will lose waterproof seal if you rotate it off often.

AW2 has its weakenesses now but not expect after a couple of performance tuning releases it will improve the standalone capability, of which one of which is a backup phone if you phone breaks//lost so having a PAYG sim to fall back on is a useful safety net.
[LG Watch Urbane] rweddy1:
Actually seal is just like any watch, keep it lubed with silicon and replace it every year or 2 depending on climate.

What is this other carrier you using ? I do like the idea of a back up, just not for more than $5 a month.
