Yet another bump..

I wonder if a dev would pick this up to develop for the EVO LTE. I have found that if I get my phone unplugged right after a charge to full, the battery lasts longer. If it continues to be connected, the charging cycles periodically by design so it won't overcharge. However, this somehow causes the battery to discharge the first 10-15% more quickly. If we had a utility that you could set to turn off charging when it hits 100%, it would help out.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] $or$:
it would be great if the softwere work on dhd

I believe if u use usb tethering for long time and keep your battery on 100% it may reduce your battery life and I should mention that Li-Polymer and Li-ion are different from each other in terms of function, I think over time charging will effect on Li-Polymer battery life

Sorry for my bad English :o
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] minicm7:
This is stupidest thing someone can say about batteries...I already read this on some sites,

but believe me: always is better:

1. Try do drop battery to 0% and then charge

2. Don't use phone while charging

3. Charge to 100% and unplug that second when it's charged

4. When you feel battery last short, calibrate battery

And yeah, your answer: I don't know is it possible on stock firmware(maybe with some app, but without rooting can't even talk about disabling this), but there is option ''disable usb power supply'' on some ROMs...for example cyanogenmod...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evok3r:
If you treat lithium based like that you will be able to notice an increasing loss of capacity every couple of days. What you say is true for NiCd batteries (which, unlike Lion batteries, suffer from "memory effect") but it is the worst thing you can do to a Lion battery. Please do some research before posting something like that which is contrary to what was said before. aweaver is totally right with what he has written, and he also provided a link with detailed information.

AW: Possible to disable usb charging?

For me the only and important's reason to NOT CHARGE over usb if I connect to my notebook is TO NOT DRAIN THE LAPTOP battery.

I only want to transfer files or use usb tethering.

The life time of my laptop battery is only about 3 hours, the note battery lasts a whole day.

If it charges the note battery I can only use my laptop 2 hours.

So. HOW TO DISABLE USB CHARGING if I want to disable it, because I want to disable it.

You all need a custom kernel which is supporting charger controller. It's need to be coded but it depends on what brand/device you use.

We can make the system think that charger is disconnected with a command:

adb shell dumpsys battery unplug

Personally, I want to repurpose an old phone into a usb WiFi adapter. If I keep the battery plugged in then it will have problems so i made a dummy battery. I don't want the usb to charge the dummy battery.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] elite-NSX:
everything is possible just takes time / knowledge i understand y ued want no charge will link wit PC or similar but u realise that usb ports i think offer 5v 500mAh so charger will linked will waste no more laptop battery than having a usb stick plugged in my device Nexus 6 has a lithium polymer i red som were wen i was hammered so i dont recall the website that NASAs perfected method for charging li-polymer in space was 30% - 70% which in perfect conditions wood yield around 1000 charge cycles b4 noticable battery capacity wear and that charging 5% - 100% wood yield around 500 charge cycles so wen u think bout it u either get 1day off a charge 1000 times b4 battery cap. wear or 2days 500 times b4 wear to b honest ill tak 2days 500times b4 wear

battery calibation is a myth a placebo effect

never use quick, triple, double, turbo chargable chargers the manufactures dont care bout the battery and by the time u notice battery cap. wear ur warrenties up

finds ways to save battery like Greenify or Amplify not to smoke my own tires but im getting 0.25% / hr on standby or 6 - 9hrs SOT but no one in there rite mind would run a daily driver lik i do

my opinion dont wrry bout laptop battery at all charge ur devices from 20-30% to 100% never use any ''quick chargable charges''

if your gonna use a dif. charger than the OEM make sure the Vs are the same the Amps dont make a differenc

example : Nexus 6 with turbo charger standard output 5V 1.6A Turbo 1 - 9V 1.6A Turbo 2 - 12V 1.2 thats almost the same Vs as a laptop

the standard output is perfect but the phone doesnt really use it the Vs are defined by the charger and the phone defines the amps i charge my nexus 6 wit a old blackberry charger thats still 5Vs but only 750mAh almost half that of the OEM but bare in mind that now it takes 3.5hrs to fully charge were the oem took like 1.25hrs give or tak i also use the service usb port on my TV somtimes but that takes allnite to charge which isnt a bad thing

one last thing ''quick charging'' also produces unnessary heat which leads to evn mor wear / tear

hope this give more insight

c if u can disable the power on the PC end too
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jerimiah797:
Okay, i want to bubble this up, again. I have an actual business case for this need. I have about 20 android devices connected to charging hubs, connected to a PC 24/7. My work runs a device farm for automation testing. Its called OpenSTF if anyone is interested. The devices must be connected with ADB over USB, and must remain powered on. Some devices are smart enough to disable their own charging circuits when the battery is full — but some do not. The ones that dont will overcharge the battery to such an extent that the battery will swell and start to push the screen away from the body of the phone. These phones unfortunately also cant run without a battery, so i end up replacing the batteries every few months.

I have tried modifying a usb cable to switch the 5v wire on and off, but unfortunately the phone sees this as a cable disconnect and turns the adb data connection off.

Any ideas are appreciated!

Hi all, another use case:

While working remotely, I have a "dual monitor" setup from my Laptop + Android tablet using spacedesk (remote display) over USB.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ActualBrick_Abandon:
Yes and no.

[EDIT]: THIS METHOD DOESN'T WORK TODAY FOR ME, SO I FOUND ANOTHER WAY. JUST SET STOP CHARGING AT FOR EXAMPLE 4. THEN WHEN BATTERY IS ABOVE 4%, IT DOESN'T TRANSMIT POWER.

I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS POSSIBLE TO USE PHONE POWER AND USB DATA, BUT YOU CAN USE "ONLY" USB POWER AND DATA.

IT IS POSSIBLE BUT NOT THE WAY IT LOOKS.

1.YOU SHOULD HAVE MAGISK INSTALLED.

2.DOWNLOAD ACCA FROM GITHUB

3.INSTALL ACC (ADVANCED CHARGING CONTROLLER)

4.FLASH IT.

5. CONNECT PHONE USB TO PC.

6. OPEN ACCA.

7.GO TO PROFILES.

8. OPEN EDIT OF 90% CHARGE PROFILE.

9. GO DOWN AND CLICK ON TEST BATTERY IDLE MODE.

NOW THE PHONE USES THE USB THAT IS CONNECTED AS BATTERY. DATA IS SENT AND RECIEVED. INDICATOR LIGHT IS TURNED OFF. I AM POSTING THIS USING TETHERING OF THE PHONE WITH THIS METHOD. IT IS NOT CHARGING AT ALL.

AS SOON AS YOU DISCONNECT THE USB, THE PHONE SHUT'S DOWN!! HEH, DON'T WORRY, WHEN YOU DISCONNECT USB, POWER BACK END SWITCHES TO BATTERY ASAP.

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lwright84:
I have an issue that many seem to have reported, but I cant seem to find the "fix" for the life of me. Basically I had stock JF6, enabled USB debugging, copied the update.zip to internal SD card, and used adb to reboot to recovery mode and applied it from there.

Since then, it locks up within 10 seconds of the first appearance of the home screen, and I get about 5 force close popups prior to that. No amount of battery pulling and rebooting changes this. It is no longer recognized or able to be commanded by adb, and I have one of the phones where the Vol button + Pwr button combo does not work to get into recovery mode.

I literally have no options left but to throw this POS away, that I can see.. please help. Thanks

There's the link for Odin one click, it is possible that your drivers are hosed. When you plug your phone in does it charge, does your computer make that little bing sound when you plug to charge? Don't panick, these phones are almost impossible to brick.

Download and install the drivers from the OP of this thread, you will see several methods of getting your phone into download mode. Open Odin first, it is already preloaded with the stock JF6 for your phone and will get you back to stock. You do not need to throw it away. Keep your phone unplugged when you start up Odin, pull out your battery, then put the battery back in, hold the volume up and down buttons only not power, while the volume buttons are pressed plug in your usb and you should get into download (you should see the Android shovelling and it will say do not turn off target) and Odin should show your device and then hit start and let it do it's thing, it should take about 5 to 10 minutes to work.

Also read the Odin thread, people have been in worse situations than you and got it out of a brick state. This should work. Good Luck.

Hi

I have found the solution. I am using Ubuntu 10.04 and Using superfroyo2.2 on my HTC dream. I can connect to wifi adhoc network of my PC and enjoying internet on it.

I have attached the zip file. Please extract the file to get tiwlan.ini and wpa_supplicant.conf file. Replace your mobile's file with these ones and enjoy ad-hoc wifi.

You can use below commands, with mobile connected to PC via usb to replace the files:

adb shell

# mount -o rw,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

# exit

> adb push tiwlan.ini /system/etc/wifi/tiwlan.ini

> adb push wpa_supplicant.conf /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf

> adb shell

# mount -o ro,remount -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

# exit

I was using ubuntu bash and I placed both files in the tools folder of SDK. and then I ran the commands from that directory so that no path issues arise.

One more thing, You should create adhoc wireless with SSID iBM and leave it open without security key.

To use unRevoked you don't need to put it in bootloader. It will do everything itself. All you need to do is Enable USB Debugging. And you do that under Settings=>Applications=>Development.

Hi All

Can somebody explain what is the difference between builds 8105, 8023 and 6941?

I can seem to find it!

Update:

I have found that 6941 is the leaked O2 build and 8105 is the official one. But what about 8023 and which of them is the best one?
[Streak 5 Android Development] fards:
they are all o2

the first one worked ok, but some people complained about force closes. I think it had a different radio, or RIL as it gave reallly good reception.

the second one was pretty cool, very close to the release version, but some people complained of bugs,

The release is pretty stable, but some people complain of bugs, if you use mine sysctl and dj_steves build.prop tweaks then it flies along.

there's another version as well, I think there was just a system.img, and boot.img, it gave flashing leds, but it seems you need a matching boot.img and baseband version other wise it complains by flashing at you. that was a pretty snappy build though.

if you're not on o2 I'd wait as several people have got very upset with it, and got stuck going back to 1.6, (which frankly is a very solid rom, despite the grumbles, if you want speed try the tweaks on that one), but I put that down to messing up the instructions for going back
