I'm letting one of them completely drain, to see what happens.

At least the 94% one gives me an idea on what the battery life is, since I can just tack on +6%. But the one stuck at 100% is a complete mystery - it could be 5% off, 10% or even more.
[G Tablet General] Marine6680:
Also, these run on 2 cell batteries making 7.4V nominal. All the devices before are using single cell batteries at 3.7V nominal. So Android may have issues with that voltage difference.
[G Tablet General] samepic:
I had the 100% battery issue before and it took a long time for it to dip below 100% (so long that it seemed unreal). Later I decided to let it drain to zero before recharging it to full again. Since then the battery indicator seemed to behave normally and discharged at a normal rate when the tablet was in use.
[G Tablet General] WickedStyx:
Have you tried deleting /data/system/batterystats.bin to wipe battery status? Mine sits on 100% for ages so I'm trying this now.
[G Tablet General] cutterjohn:
I tried that once, by setting it to never shutoff and letting it go over night. The next morning I charged it to green plus 30m as someone suggested in the TnTL thread, but I still had the problem of the meter sticking at 100% for a long time.

Anyways, I installed 3.0.0(TnTL) on monday and decided to also use the CWM clear battery data option, and now it seems to be dropping more as expected, but I'm not entirely sure that I did it completely correctly as by the time that I did the clear battery data option it would've been below 100% charge since I did so AFTER running the update.zip... just have to wait and see now...

Battery Stays at 100% For Ages

My battery stayed at 100% for ages the first time I charged it. Then it dropped quickly and cut out around 50%. I recharged it and it seems to be behaving more normally now. It still seemed to hang at 100% for a while, but no where near as long as the first time. I'm waiting to see at what percentage it dies this time.
[G Tablet General] insight3fl:
my zt 180 tablet never got above 94% also. And it dropped pretty quickly and at around 40% it seemed to get a second life and slow down, but eventually it went all the way down to about 10% and then I would charge it (about 3 hours max). It too is a 7.4v supply.

My Odroid T had a 3.4 supply and it was pretty linear, showed charged at 100% and went down accordingly, though the developers had some issues with a few software releases where it did behave erraticaly and they did a few patches that fixed it.

Warning: Slightly off topic -

I'm glad Roebeet was able to get a 2nd Gtab. Hope you found a good discount. Happy Holidays!!!

Now back to the topic discussion...
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Off-Topic x2 : yep, got used one that another XDA user had returned!

On-Topic: Still waiting for the battery to discharge, it went to sleep last night. Getting close....
[G Tablet General] New2Android:
I also had the issue of battery showing 100% for a long time and then cutting out around at 50%. One of the posts mentioned doing a battery stat wipe in CWM after charging to 100% + 30 minutes.

I did this with a little twist of my own.

I allowed the battery to drain completely and tab to shut off. Plugged in the charger and immediately did a battery wipe in CWM. Allowed the battery to charge fully upto 100% + let it be on charger for additional time till the battery symbol in the notification bar no more showed charging sign. Again did the battery stat wipe in CWM and then rebooted the tab.

Since then i observe that the battery has been draining as it should be expected to. down to 72% after about 4+ hours of use. I will still be monitoring the battery discharge further for two or three more charge cycles. But I feel doing battery stat wipe in cwm 2 times at full drain and then again at full charge might have helped caliberate it properly.

Let me know if anyone else tries this and gets same or different observations.
[G Tablet General] stanglx:
Try installing this to measure your current usage over the life of the battery... (dont have a GTab and still considering). Since most likely this widget and the battery monitor are using the same API we will see if its a hardware sensor issue or a software issue...

http://www.appbrain.com/app/currentwidget/com.manor.currentwidget

I suspect its in their battery monitor and not the sensor or API... if that is the case it should be easy to debug (if you have the source). Typically these issues are due to poor polling algorithms...

Im new to android so I am unfamiliar with profiling capabilities of the platform...(Still learning)
[G Tablet General] ItsDon:
Perhaps this will be one of the 'little fixes' that will be present in the latest FW update when VS drops it tomorrow. I have the 100% unit BTW. A fix would be nice.
[G Tablet General] Butch1326:
Reading this thread this morning it got me thinking about my gtab battery situation. When I first got the gtab, the battery stayed at 100% for hours, then the percentage dropped like a rock. Over time, the battery dropped in more regularly, although it drops in large numbers (like from 100% to 83%, then to 67%, and so on). I'm currently running TnT Lite 3.0.

This morning I charged the battery to 100%, and while plugged in (to the AC outlet), I reset the battery stats using cwm. The battery today has been steadily going down throughout the day as I would expect. In over 8 hours, I watched the battery go down steadily from 100% to 84%. So far, so good.
[G Tablet General] gunsjoe:
my exp

Tried draining once, just let it sit, didn't fix it.

Tried again but this time I kept the screen on and watched the voltage, shutdown was near 6.8 volts. Now the meter is accurate. YMMV...
[G Tablet General] Neoprimal:
@it'sDon - it wasn't fixed in the update.

I was in the same boat as most of you. Took a very long time to go down from 100% and then zonked out completely at ~10-15%. It's now been charging for a few hours and it's been sitting at 100% for quite a while but the light is still red (so it's still charging) which means it will probably happen again looks like it's charging to some value over 100% and when it discharges, knocks out while the meter is still reading as having juice. Roebeet is 100% on the money.

I am going to try the CWM battery value reset some of you mentioned to see if it does something once my light is green, then I won't charge it and watch it like a hawk once it hits 20% to see if it shuts down at 10-15% or a value less than 3% which is acceptable I think.
[G Tablet General] wasserkapf:
I never had a problem on my stock(ish) g-tablet. That is until I installed the latest update.

I had to do a data wipe before any of the cosmetic TnT changes would show. After that the battery now seems stuck at 100%. This wasn't that way before, so I will try draining the battery, and see what happens.

Since I found that this was tied to my latest update, I think that I should call CS and complain.
[G Tablet General] roebeet:
My battery drain didn't make a difference, either. Still haven't pinned down a fix that works.

At least those of you with 94% max have a general idea when your battery will die. With us "100% forever" ones, we have no clue.
[G Tablet General] wasserkapf:
Actually, I may not have a problem after all. I have had my tablet on for about two hours. It is now showing the battery at 86%.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] playsguitars:
I am having an extremely difficult time texting or entering text on this phone. is there a particular rom that addresses this? perhaps simply a replacement keyboard style? It's really the only thing holding me back from somewhat liking the phone.

Thanks!
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joooe:
You can try other keyboard programs.

Try spb keyboard (it has a full screen mode), resco keyboard or FingerKeyboard.
[Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eldavar:
This may be a dumb question, but did you try tapping the tiny little triangle icon beside the tiny little keyboard icon at the bottom of the screen when you're typing an email or text?

When you tap that little triangle, a menu pops up with some options. If the selected option is "Keyboard" you only get a really tiny little keyboard, which sucks if you've got bad eyesight, if your hands shake, if you lose your stylus, etc. If you pick the one "Full QWERTY" you get a much larger keyboard that's alot easier to use, even without the stylus. There's also an option to explore "Other Input Methods" but I've never messed with that because the qwerty keyboard is great for me.

My Optimus One has a black screen after a failed flash. I bought the phone in Hong Kong and cannot return it because I am back in the U.S. I will be returning to Hong Kong in a few months, so if anyone knows Broadway's (the electronics shop) warranty I would be grateful.

This is what happened leading up to the brick:

- Tried flashing Prime v2.

- After flash, didn't like the ROM, wanted to go back to AmberHome.

- I didn't have AmberHome on the SD card.

- I had made a backup of all my data when I was in AmberHome before I flashed Prime.

- I restored.

- Stuck on Android logo.

- Wiped all data, restored again.

- Stuck on LG logo.

- KDZ updater, phone in emergency mode, flash TYPE on EMERGENCY, flashed V10a (phone came with V10a)

- Mid flash, there was interruption.

- Tried flashing again, KDZ in CSEMERGENCY (phone still in EMERGENCY mode)

- Failed, repeated flash about 6 times.

- Kept failing.

- Tried turning off phone, then booting back up in Emergency mode again, hoping it would fix something.

- Phone won't turn on.

Progress

I have made some progress.

After hours of research I am trying to fix through kdz updater.

My main problem is that only my Ubuntu box can connect to the net.

I have been trying to do it through virtual box but I just cannot get the software to see the phone.

Now I have copied the files to my old xp laptop. Surprisingly it still cannot find the phone.

I am going try to download drivers and manually install them on xp.

I will let you know how things are going. However I am bit flat out today so progress may be slow.

All the info on the forums has been very helpful, still if anyone can add something it would be great.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] 4wd vege:
Well it was worth the effort. Lg Optimus One came back without losing anything.:D

All I had to do was re-root. Too easy with Z4root.

Anyway I had to download drivers elsewhere, load on to xp laptop disable lg modem driver in device manager, and just sit back and let it do it's thing.

At first I thought it failed as at the end an error message came up however it rebooted fine. Thanks for all the suggestions.

[HD7 General] fastguebo:
i have and hd2 with data and hd7 with out, but my hd7 can never find the wifi router i change my energy rom to a miri rom on my hd2 but still can some one help please. and why i see so many thread with wp7 problem this is a bad sign common ms get together. :mad:
[HD7 General] Jim Coleman:
The reason this forum is filled with threads containing WP7 problems is because, in general, people don't tend to make new threads proclaiming that everything is working as expected.

"HD7 screen still operational"

"WP7 booting OK - 20 days in a row now"

"My phone is capable of making calls!!!111!!!!"

You get my meaning.... ;):D

Regarding the HD2's wifi router, not sure what the problem is there but I do remember my Sony PSP couldn't connect to my HD2's wifi either.

I know my HD7 can connect to my home Wifi, so I suspect the issue is with the HD2. Maybe its Wireless-N mode isn't up to snuff.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] meeekael:
Hello.

Got an external SD card today (32gb). Now when the device gets plugged into the computer it mounts it as two separate drives (internal SD and external SD). Is there anyway to either change the priority so the external SD is number 1 or prevent the internal SD from mounting or have them treated as one drive?

I ask because since getting the external SD and filling it up with music my car headunit only detects the internal SD, because it doesn't have the capability of detecting 2 storage drives.

Preventing/being able to control the internal sd from being used as a mass storage device would be the ideal outcome. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Using JPU 2.2.1.

Cheers,

Mike.

It's an issue when the charger is plugged in. It should shut down fine if you haven't got the charger connected.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidcues:
there is nothing wrong with being in recovery while charging -- uses very very very little power and when your ready to turn on the phone, you just hit reboot and your done. Or maybe you want to clear cache before you boot? or maybe you want to backup before you boot or maybe you wanted to fix permissions before you boot? i mean -- its actually a blessing in disguise. I would be more annoyed if this was an issue with the G1 because it was so easy to get to recovery as it was (power and back button) whereas with the g2 if you wanted to get to recovery you'd have to either use adb or its PC counterparts, a reboot app in the rom, or by booting into fastboot and then 3 more steps after that to get to recovery.

its like living next door to the convenience store, bank, grocery store, and the massage parlor. one stop shoppin -- no hard trudging around to get places.

it is a benefit... yes its a bug...(a bug with benefits heh) but frankly i've put in a request that if koush updates recovery i want to be able to "keep" this bug.

I unrooted and cried bad hinges so tmobile would replace it.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cclbball21:
I've been trying to fix the mounting issue lately. I recently installed the new Nero v3 and thought it might fix the problem. But turns out it didn't, so I did a little research and found several ways. I tried the mounting_fix_vibrant22.zip file, it didn't work either. Then I read that many people had succeeded by simply formatting the sdcard. I boot in into recovery mode > mount and storage > format internal sdcard (I assume this is where I got it all wrong -_-). I reboot my phone after that and that's when the boot loop appears.

I tried to boot it into download mode to ODIN but it was a fail too, it just keeps looping with the "Galaxy Samsung" logo on there. I assume my phone is bricked at this point. :(

Any help would be appreciated.

I bought a g-tab for my wife for Christmas. I wanted it to be working well right out of the box so I tried to put TNT-lite on it before she started playing with it.

I installed vs 3.0 tnt-lite using the usb connection as outlined in one of these threads. Ended up in a boot loop.

I managed to instal clockworkmod vs 08 via the micro sd card

tried all the following to reinstall vs 2.2 of tnt-lite with no success:

clockwork mod, cleared data, cleared cache, formated sd card

loaded tnt lite vanilla on sdmicro card,

altered the command file to point to sdcard2

clockwork does not offer an option to load the zip file from sdcard2, only from sdcard.

tried mounting sdcard-ext believing it was the microsd, but still clockwork could not see the zip install file.

I can't get my pc to recognize the tablet anymore, so all I have is sd card to fix the problem,

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to do the following:

get the machine to boot into tnt 2.2 with marketplace and flash working using only an sd card.

I'm new to droid aps and a virgin with this machine, so please be very specific.

Thanks

[G Tablet General] roebeet:
Did you format the SD card, or Partition the SD card? The latter is the one that seems to correct this issue for most people.

In clockworkmod, go to "Advanced" and then "Partition SD Card". This will erase both /data and /sdcard, so be aware of this. And it takes about 4-5 minutes to run. 2048 and zero swap are the common sizes to use.

If this doesn't work, the only other suggestion I have is to setup nvflash. I have a post that describes this here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=861950

Good luck!
[G Tablet General] drshuf:
If I can repartition the sdcard, will I be able to load the tnt-lite via the micro sd card? That is to say, if I load the tnt-lite zipped file and the recovery folder on the micro sd, will it load automatically, or do I have to remove clockworkmod first and then reinstall the basic recovery software?
[G Tablet General] necromonger89:
Haha! OMG I was stuck on a boot loop twice with two G Tabs. Partitioning is what fixed the error. IDK why but it did, reflashed, wiped, and it booted normally. The Nvflash didn't work for me btw on both occasions. Don't get scared.. its fixable.
[G Tablet General] necromonger89:
Sorry for double post but did not see your response. Okay if you go to the vanilla rom it will remove Clockworkmod(it was either this or Nvflash removed Clockworkmod for me). I went to vanilla, no luck, then partitioned, reflashed TnT Lite, wiped data and cache, then rebooted. This is what fixed my problem. You can reinstall Clockworkmod using the same method used to install it.
