[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] charlestek:
I just received a refurbished Pixel XL after using my Nexus Protect warranty when my Nexus 6p battery would go from 40% to 15% instantly. I had to wait for a new Project Fi sim card since the old sim card in the 6p was not forward compatible with an apparently newer sim card for the Pixel XL. Anyway, after I got the phone, I did a full factory image flash over this past weekend using adb using the latest june 8.1 image.

I've only had the phone operational for two days, so only today did I have the battery drain down to less than 80%. I'm trying to fully test the phone before I send the 6p back to google. So I also installed Acubattery to check the battery wear on this refurb. Oddly the phone appeared to be brand new in the box. The box has a refurb sticker with new bar code and Imei pasted over the original one.

Anyway, using the oem charger that came with the replacement and a short usb 3.0 cable that I've used with the 6p, I charged the phone today when it was at 70 something percent. I did not see the text "Rapidly charging" on the lock screen, or any text. The phone appeared to charge very slowly from what I'm used to in the 6p (though that may have been the 6p's downfall). When the phone got over 90% it was going so slowly that it would take many minutes to go each percentage point and hung at 99% for a very long time before hitting 100%. Needless to say, my perception is that it was not rapidly charging.

I just also reinstalled Ampere to keep tabs on things. I have a usb 2.0 charge meter, but do not have a usb 3.0 meter. I do have an expensive high impedance multimeter, but am not in the mood to try to put it serially in line with the charging cord.

Can anyone tell me what the expected behavior of the "Rapidly Charging" text on the lock screen is supposed to be? During what percentages is it supposed to appear, if the charger is sourcing enough current to rapidly charge??? I also just unwrapped the usb 3.0 cable that came in the box for the pixel and tried that briefly, but the phone is already at 100%, so I unplugged it.

I guess I have to install Netflix to run a long movie to drain the battery......
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borxnx:
Try using the included cable along with the included wall adapter.

The Pixel XL charges very differently than the N6P. The N6P used Qualcomm QuickCharge 2.0 (which is a no-no for the USB-C spec, actually) and charged with dynamic voltage/amperage based on the current battery level. The PXL charges at 5V/3A, which is slower than a N6P if both are at low battery levels, but is faster than the N6P at higher battery levels (the N6P would revert to the standard USB 2.0 rate of 5v/2.xA after reaching 80-90%).

The "Rapidly Charging" indicator comes on when the phone is receiving close to the 5V/3A maximum allowable charge, and should appear at any battery charge level all the way to 99%.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] charlestek:
Late into the charge I switched to the Usb c cable that came in the box, but it made no difference. I have been using Benson approved Usb C cables with the 6P and there is nothing wrong with them.

As far as I remember, the 6P only charged at one voltage. It is the Pixel that can charge according to the PD spec. My experience is opposite of what you are saying. The Pixel seems to charge extremely slowly

over 90%, so slowly it is noticeable.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] charlestek:
Looking at the official log of the Pixel XL 8.1 charging bug that was supposed to be resolved with May update:

https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/72502595
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] borxnx:
Well, you're right. I had to look up the specs for the 6P to believe it. I even had a 6P for 2 years! One day you'll find me explaining to someone how Nelson Mandela died in prison back in 1997.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] charlestek:
Somewhere along the line I either read something in Google+ or asked Benson, or read one of his replies that involved PD. At one point I bought a PD compatible charger as second charger for the 6P, but the thing crapped out after a couple months. In any case, I wish I had an accurate description of the code algorithm that the Pixel XL uses for charging. I should measure the time it takes to charge from 90% to 100%.

Eventually I am probably going to root the phone and install the charge limiting app, but mainly now I am charging the battery repeatedly to see what my battery wear figure is for this ??? new/refurb Pixel XL.
[Google Pixel XL Questions & Answers] charlestek:
Besides I believe Google would always avoid using some proprietary charging scheme. Google has to follow best practice standards as they are supposed to be the example for all of the Android kingdom.

They have to follow usb c standard and PD to the letter.

Hi:

My unlocked bootloader SS2 phone got stucked in Download Mode after successfully installed/flashed AICP ROM

It booted once and when i rebooted to enter recovery got stucked. Tried pushing buttons combos but still stucked in Dmode.

Have no access to fastboot from Windows but can get limited access to fastboot in Debian: can flash several twrp recoveries, can flash

AICP ROM again but can not get fastboot oem commands working.

Can't enter to recovery because phone never turn off.

Tried also to come back to Nougat but can't enter recovery to flash ss2_old_bootloader.

I do not know what to do.

Any help?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgr1:
Also have this problem... any help?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ss.toedjoeh:
have u try to connect into computer, use adb, and use this command :

fastboot reboot

what's the result with that?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgr1:
No connection.

But i have reinstalled OST Treble ROM and phone now working.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgr1:
I also have problem after flashing to AICP and sometimes phone (after power off) stuck in Download mode.

Just enter:

fastboot --set-active=a reboot
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] longu:
I have the same problem. I tried to follow your advice, but fastboot in my PC doesn't recognize the parameter (all I get is fastboot help page).

EDIT: reinstalled treble v3.1 via OST and it fixed the download mode issue.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] internety1:
hi,

got the same problem, stuck at download mode but phones can`t to pc via usb so I am unable to use fastreboot.

Any other suggestions how to fix it ?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fooiskandar:
in my xperience is connect your phone to the PC then open cmd ... make sure in folder of adb and fastboot .exe stored ...

type:

fastboot continue
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rgr1:
Maybe use other fastboot.

Sometimes you must enter:

fastboot --set-active=_a reboot
("_a" instead of "a")

BTW. My Aquos sometimes stuck in download mode after installing AICP.

I fixed this by entering:

adb shell
bootctl mark-boot-successful

[HTC Excalibur] collins521:
I saw a registry edit for the beep whenever you hit the green talk button to turn it off and I remember doing it but for some reason when I reset the phone it doesn't stay...does anyone happen to know of a way to get it to go off?
[HTC Excalibur] DaMilky:
The trick will be to find something in HKLM rather than HKCU. Typically, settings in HKLM stay through resets/profile changes/etc while HKCU is only based on that current session (it's Windows after all).

However, I just did a test (including a reboot) and will confirm that if you change the values in HKCU and you DO NOT change your profile (from normal to vibrate, silent, etc and then back), you can keep the beep off.

Here are the values that you will need to change to (open your favorite registry editor):

- HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\CallStart > InitVol (0)

- HKCU\ControlPanel\SoundCategories\InCall2 > InitVol (0)

With those two changes, your "beep" should go away as long as you do not change your profile. I have no, however, figured out a way to keep the beep across multiple profiles (then again, I haven't experimented enough).
[HTC Excalibur] thedoctor1:
i saw a cab posted some where to remove the beep but i forgot where i saw it :(
[HTC Excalibur] theformula:
drop the attached callstart.wav into the windows directory of your device and allow it to replace the original. the only way ive ever been able to turn that most annoying beep off is to replace the original file with this blank .wav file. enjoy your nag free calling!

[Blu Studio 5] dutchslab:
Hello-

I bricked my phone, so I am trying to re-flash it.

I've obtained the ROM package, but it contains many more files than I'm used to seeing when flashing a ROM. I've had minimal luck so far, for example, I erased the recovery partition with Fastboot, and then I reflashed it with the recovery.img I found in the package, and it works great.

The main problem I'm running into is for some of the partitions, there are multiple image files. For example, although recovery.img was just one file, I see multiple system partition files, such as system.img (1kb), system_1.img (134mb), system_2.img (8.2kb), ... up to system_16.img.

userdata, cache, are similar.

There is no splatter file.

There also seem to be many meta files, such as partition.xml, patch.xml, rawprogram0.xml, definition_public.xml.

From research so far, some Qualcomm QPST app for Windows is the only way to re-flash this, but I'm on Linux, so I wanted to know if there is a Linux / Fastboot way to do it, and/or if this QPST app is the definitive solution to the problem.

Any feedback would be great, BLU says this is out of warranty and they offered me $10 for it towards a swap for another BLU phone, so I'm really hoping I can restore it.

Thanks,

Dutch

Is it just me or is Pointui development really slow?

I understand they have lives of their own and that it's free, but honestly almost two months is truly agonizing for me because I really like the interface.

Every release I hope for more customization, correct scrolling and being able to take over my Today Screen.

I would like to hear others opinions on this subject. Thanks in advance.
[General Topics] mchapman007:
I had the same thoughts as you about a Month ago and have sense forgot about pointUI. Not plugging Spb MS2.0 on your pointUI thread but it does everything I want and with the amazing things that have been done to it in this forum, I don't see any future for pointUI.

I do check in at there forum every once in a while and noticed the amount of users logged on has greatly dwindled probably due to what you are speaking about.

pointUI was a good idea but way too slow to develop... **Just my opinion**
[General Topics] ineluki:
Mobile Shell 2 is quite good, but I for one hope Pointui development doesn't stop as I like its approach better. Heck, if it included good support for contacts I would pay for it even in its present state. Please developers take your time but don't forget us :)
[General Topics] kingvash:
I agree completely with both of you. I don't visit Pointui very much any more and I have used SPBM2 and right now its killing Pointui because of the options, customization and in a nut shell its just more complete right now.

Is anyone still using Pointui right now?

sadly many free development projects end up slowing down or stopping all together when

the turns from being groundbraking new stuff to day to day work and maintenence

in which case it would be beneficial to release the source so others with new energy can take over
