xda2i Battery :S

you may had this topic before, anyways.
it had no power at all the backup battery was empty sow as the main one. i stick my xda2i charger in, red light shows on the top right of the handset, left it for about a day, picket it up the next day and only the backup battery is 100% :S it turns on every 20 mins i can use it for about 3 mins and it turns of again. help please

sounds like u got a buggered battery mate,
are you charging it using a mains charger or USB only?

noooooo please dont say that, and im using a mains charger
how much is a new battery?
edit: i have a usb thing aswell
the phone is almost brand new

theres two imputs on the phone one on the outside, one on the inside (back of the phone) maybe the outside imput is for the backup battery and the input inside the phone may be for the main battery? but they have diffrent sockets and i only have the one for the backup battery i think.
is that correct? anyone?
thanx
max
edit: so many veiws and no posts?

ok, i found out that it charges the main battery through a usb and im doing that, but it wont charge on the charger :S and when i take the usb out the power goes down like every 3 minutes a % goes down. may be im running something on the device i dont know about? very strange surprised to see such a machine fail its duties. :/
O2 needs to fix themselves
thanx

check the task manager you maybe starting the camera when you take it out of the cradle also what do you leave running in the back ground tapping x in the corner only minimises the program it doent stop it

how do i know whats in the backrpund?

I could suggest a couple of things but I think the easiest course for you to take would be to back up your files and programs (if you need to) and then perform a hard reset, once you've done that leave it to charge overnight. Make sure that your cradle is powered NOT from your computer using USB but from a charger plugged into the wall alternatively you can simply attach the adapter (that came separately to your charger and plug it into the bottom of your phone. The charger charges BOTH the backup and main battery there are no separate "inputs" as you put it. The connection is located at the bottom of your phone beneath the joypad.
I run bluetooth and use wi-fi on my IIi throughout the day as well as make and recieve about 2 1/2 hours worth of calls, My GPRS connection is more or less constantly on and when i'm out and about in my car (approx 2hrs throughout the day) I'm using the 2i as an MP3 player outputting sound through the car speakers. I sync my phone once in the morning and it stays on the cradle for about 10minutes. My battery basically lasts the whole day, by the time i put it on charge at about 11:30 pm its at about 21%

thank you for ur reply's
one more thing this is a stoopid question but how do u turn the phone of?
i tried pressing the on/off button located top left of device but the light just goes out, and i leeve it at night and in the morning the battery is dead im not running any programs.
thank you
max

press the icon on th etop toolbar which displays your reception, select "turn on flight mode", that will turn your phone off

after i press turn on flight mode nothink happens it just says turn of flight mode (wireless off)
max

i think i need to get a new battery the percent just goes down every 3-5 mins

Problem with charging

Hello all
I don't know if its a problem with the TP or the Igo.
I'm using Igo v8.3.2.93112 (Jun 8 2009), and the charging somehow stops after about minutes and doesn't resume even when i exit the program to home screen.
I manage to start charging again only after a soft reset.
Help please..

I have been having this problem too. I have left my pro charging overnight at 60% to wake up to a dead device several times. It seems i have to babysit and check the power screen every 10 mintutes to make sure the pro is still charging. I can not listen to music or use the wifi and charge at the same time. I often have to do seval soft resets to get to charge again and it often takes six plus hours to charge up to 30% or more. I noitice when the tp heats up like an oven, the phone stops chargeing. I often have to remove the battery to cool the device before plugging it back in. This device really runs hotter than the tilt. I could use it to cook a steak or BBQ a meal. The manual says this is normal but sooner or later it would cook itself.
Is there any other ways beside not using the tp for a day to deal with the charging problems?

could be a bad battery, if I'm not mistaken, they have some circuitry in them to make sure the battery charges properly.

charging problem
Hi Folks,
I also know this prob. It happend while kind of "power using" the radio unit. That means, using the GPS prog TrackMe, updating positions very often and uploading them via WLAN to my server. Same time bluetooth was active(headset). It felt like the power supply (max.1 A) was not powerful enough to supply the TP properly.
So long, -ULISSES-

**Device in hand, observations**Wireless Charging constantly pausing and making sound

Hi there,
So just some observations...
When I use the wireless charging pad (TYLT VU) the phone will constantly BEEP BOOP and the screen turns on to say wireless charging paused it will then turn off after a few seconds.
I've read in other forms this could be due to overheating etc.... but in touching the phone it's not hot.
This is annoying... And... no current fix I can find to stop it.

Borrow another wireless charger (or go to a Starbucks or something) to see if it's the device.
If not, you might have a damaged charging pad.

I've been getting a lot of "wireless charging paused" messages as well. I have my phone on my desk, streaming audio, and it occasionally turns on and that messages comes up, and then it immediately starts charging again...hmmm...

I have 8 pads around my house, all the Nokia D900s that they gave away with the Lumia 920s. Last night I experienced this for about... 15 seconds or so. I readjusted the phone and it worked fine thereafter. Sucks that the beeping woke us up at 5am though.

I don't think it's my pad, it happens on both.
I think positioning could be part of the cause?
Oh well...
Again, just observations I'm seeing.

I'm having the same problem on my S6 Edge. I have a couple TYLT chargers and they work perfectly fine with my Nexus 5, Nexus 6 and Nexus 7's... both work flawlessly with those. But they both fail to work properly with the S6.
I'm pretty disappointed with this. Anyone got any ideas or know of a similar shaped charger that works with the S6? I really don't want to go back to my Nexus 6 due to the size, but having the phone beeping and flashing all night trying to charge is unacceptable.

My regular S6 was doing this last night. I wonder if it has something to do with the camera sticking out and not letting the phone lay flat?
I don't like charging it with the USB because I know the frame will get all scratched up eventually.

Running into the same problem with my T-Mobile S6. After setting it on a new 3 coil charging pad, the phone looks to be taking the charge, then once the screen times out and turns off, it will vibrate, turn back on, and display "Wireless Charging Paused".

On my Qi-infinity stand, it actually does lay flat as the charging pad ends just below the camera, so I don't think that's the case here.
Update: So I've managed to solve my problem by changing the wall adaptor from an old 1A Motorola plug to a 1.5A version and it's currently charging without troubles. Switch back just to confirm and within seconds, it starts giving me trouble again. I guess the S6 is picky about the power levels? *shrugs*

I was having the same issues. It turned out I was getting my monies worth out of the $5 walmart special I was using. I ended up getting a 3 coil charging pad and now it charges just fine. Nary a hiccup.
Link to 3 Coil Charger I'm using

everyone remember to use a 2A (possibly 1.5 amp input is also okay) charger. the output will be ~1A. This was the solution to many of the cheaper wireless chargers on ebay/amazon. Just one more thing to check!

Best Solution
In the last solution, turning on Daydream will let the phone's screen on unless you turn it off.
Another better solution is to enter developer mode and turn ON StayAwake. Same effect of daydream but without the annoying on screen.

Cant start my car twice since installed PX5

Hi, last week I installed MTCE PX5 unit and OBD module, I enabled auto sleep and about 6 days car worked good, but yesterday I must use cables to start it, so I did one hour ride to charge it, but today it happened again... I have Peugeot 407, my battery have 74 Ah and I have wiring right, because installation was easy plug and play. There was not any space for do some mistake. Also when car engine is running, radio shows income voltage is 14,4, which should be normal and there shouldnt be problem with alternator.
What is best solution now? should I buy car battery charger and try to charge it? Or my battery can be damaged?
Thanks

See an auto electrician.

I have almost the same problem. I just posted a new topic without realizing someone else has the same problem. My car is Renault Megane III coupe. I noticed that even while car is off, the radio periodically starts by itself and turns of after a short while, but over a few days that's enough to drain the battery. I changed the battery, bought a new one and it's still happening.

Try not using auto sleep but a fixed power off interval.
The head unit will take longer to start but probably it shouldn't use battery power when car is off.

Obd port is always on. So might be that draining the car battery.
Hope this helps.

I hope this is it, because I dont want to go to service, I took OBD module off and testing it now and so far so good.

I also have this problem. It's worse now that I don't use the car so often (quarantine and such...).
The first time this happened (after a 1 week vacation away from the car) I had the OBD module installed and I blamed it on that so I removed it and swapped the battery because it wasn't receiving enough charge. But this week (after 12 days without moving the car) the battery is completely flat. Can't even unlock the car with the remote, have to do it with the key.
I tried a lot of hacks (even have the can-bus powered from a fuse that I know it disconnects when I turn the car off), but I still have battery drain problems...
I will probably disconnect the radio when I know I'm going to leave the car off for big periods of time...

Your car needs to be started al least on 3 days interval, 12 days is to much even if you do not have installer an audio system like this.
There are things that are draining your batter also like de security sistem on your car.

Samsung T295 shuts off unexpectedly - Battery mod

Hi all,
I have modified my T295 to run directly off of the 12V in my car.
Basically I got a Buck LM2596 3A Step Down converter and dialed it in to exactly 4.0V to mimic a almost fully charged Li-Ion battery and hooked it up directly to the battery terminals, skipping the tiny board that comes with the battery. In other words, straight to the mainboard.
The tablet works perfectly as a car stereo connected to the Bluetooth Amp and doesn't have any problem, but once every 3 days or so it suddenly shuts off. Sometimes I enter in my car and it's already off and sometimes I'm driving, it suddenly gets a completely black screen and then shuts off. I can turn it on immediately after, but sometimes I need 2-3 tries.
Maybe it's kernel related and triggers some sort of brownout? But this doesn't make sense to me, since I can stress it and it doesn't turn off.
It's Android 9, rooted, debloated and decrypted in case this helps
Thanks for any advice!
