(Questions) Fast Charge and Gallery HIghlight - Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note5

I have a couple of annoyances that I'd like to see if anyone experiences or knows a fix for.
1. My Fast charging is unreliable. Sometimes I plug and unplug what feels like 20 times before fast charging starts. Anyone else?
2. Every so often, my stupid gallery creates a video highlight file of my pics/videos. Is there a way to turn this off?
Any help is appreciated

I have the same issue with the fast charge feature. I haven't noticed the second issue you're having.

Is your gallery using Google photos? If so the assistant section in Google photos puts collections together for you for trips etc based on location
Also I'm annoyed by my fast charging it is the same issue. Lots are having it. Samsung says it happens at a certain battery level to save the battery but it not true that it's a certain level. I've tried all levels. A few people bought the Verizon rapid chargers and it worked everytime. Just bought one today for myself to try it.

GPS + Charging = Overheating :-(

Hello all,
Saw a few other posts to overheating when not doing much or anything but recently noticed a problem with using the GPS while charging will cause it to over heat and no longer charge. The battery will get in excess of 47° C when this is happening and idles at 33° C.
Seems mainly with GPS though, on call with wifi and bluetooth running at 35° C.
I am using a HTC - T-Mobile myTouch charger with 5V-1A put so is not a high output charger.
Has anyone else seen this?
I know I am not having any luck with these phones.
First one had problems with when using GPS would loose data connection till GPS was discontinued.
Second (this one) has the above problem and had a exchange sent for about 4 hours wouldn't turn on no matter what I did. After I had exchange sent turned on fine and hasn't happened since.
Third (sent back already) had the same problems as the first one will loose data and cell signal when using GPS and will come back when disabled but not till then.
Honestly, you can't expect a phone not to get hot while charging and using GPS. GPS takes a lot of power, also with the screen being on the entire time it takes up even more.
Almost any smart phone should be able to handle 47° C, I wouldn't suggest it for long extended periods of time though.
Most android devices have heat alert that pops up if your phone gets too hot, I'm not sure if ours has one. I've read on a couple of posts of phones running around 125 Fahrenheit, without a warning.
As for the Data kicking off while using GPS, I don't see why it would, mine doesn't. Not sure what to tell you.
Are you running a custom rom?
I do expect it to get hot.
That is normal as the phone is using alot of resources to do that function.
But it should not get to a point where it stops charging.
I have had the Amaze, Sensation, MT4GS, and G2x all have gotten warm but not really a problem where it caused it to stop accepting a charge.
I always remove it from the d30 case and set i cup holder so not trapping heat to avoid the problem.
A few times I have gotten it that hot with it not plugged in.
I only see the "overheat notification" orange blink green blink cycle when it is plugged in charging. If not charging not a problem there.
No custom rom or anything 100% stock and locked yet.
Data connection lost is a weird one.
My Girl has the same phone with no problem there and the 2nd device don't loose data connection just that it heats up really good. Don't know about heat on hers since she don't use GPS long enough to require a charge like I do.
Just the first and third phone that was sent to me have this problem with lose of data connection. Can't use it long enough to see if it over heats :-( lol
I completely skipped over the not charging part, after it gets hot.
I'm going on a trip in a few days, I'll see if my behaves similiarly.
I would just take it back and try again, no data while using GPS is pointless, unless its just a simple setting somewhere I've never seen.

Just tried a different charger and it got up to 45°c too
Both car chargers work fine on my other phones so don't think is that.
I use mine for GPS a lot (just made a trip from Atlanta to Knoxville ) and had my phone charging playing music and navigating and yes it got hot but it never stopped charging or did the blink cycle .. only time I saw anything remotely close to that is when I left my g2x outside while I was playing ball and saw a notification saying its too hot to operate but nothing on my s

I've been using my GPS for the last couple of hours now, been downloading maps for when I know I don't have service also along with navigation.
I'm ay 45 Celsius right now. I'm using a fm transmitter with a built on usb outlet on it that doesn't put out the needed power to keep my phone charged. If I was using a real car charger work the correct output I'm sure I would be a little more hot.
No data problems so far or anything else.

yeah the last few days I have been using it didn't break over 45 much but seems like I need to keep the AC pretty high to accomplish that.
Currently here in PA we have had a few really hot days for us which I know is much toward other states but has been in the mid to high 90's.
I think just the heat from that with windows down is not enough to keep it cool enough.
If the phone gets arround 45 c will be border line and seems like 46 is where over heat protection comes in and stops charging.
As a test I put my sensation in a thick rubber case left charging from 70% and gps that got up to 48 c but never stopped charging. Normally I never ever leave the case on while I do that but wanted to see in this case what would happen.
So it seems like just a HTC One S thing that if reaches a certain point to stop charging to help prevent damage or something.

i always have a data connection issue while using gps i have ever since i got this phone so that custom rom talk is bs this phone drops data all the time while using gps at the same timeand will not return until the gps is off
My phone also has the loss of data issue while using GPS. Shortly after the data loss it will also loose GPS signal and for me a reboot is the only solution

Just got mine today and I have the same problem with my Nexus 4. Does not seem to want to hold a connection and charges for a few seconds, then off for a few seconds. I would stay away from these if you have a Nexus 4 as it seems to be a crapshoot whether it works with your N4 or not.

I have the same problem. Do yourself a favor and don't buy this charger if you own an N4.
I don't understand why people keep buying the DT900. The problems have been mentioned time and again with the frequent disconnects and the extremely slow rate of charging. Newer hardware versions (Rev 11 and 12 I reckon) of the N4 have been reported to be working fine. It's just not worth the trouble even at that price. There are other QI chargers available for around 20.
It's on sale again at att :thumbup:

Works great for my N7, so when I ordered two N4s my dumb ass ordered 3 from the AT&T website, and am getting the same issue with the two that I unpacked. Hopefully the AT&T store can take them as returns.
I picked one of these up for 13$. I don't recommend this charger either. If it is not sitting on the charger just so it will just cycle charging/not charging. If you look at a photo of the phone with the cover off, the battery is pushed down to one side of the phone.(lower left corner of phone looking at screen.) The charger works best for me when i position the phone so the left edge is lined up with the edge of the charger. Once it gets in the 90 percent range the charging rate really slows down, like a percent or so an hour. It WAS working good for me until.....
I got tired of searching, but I had read a thread where people were stating that the phone starting switching through apps, opening and closing and doing weird stuff. Well, it started happening today to me. Somewhere along the line it changed a setting and i lost my nav bar. Tried for hours to find what setting it changed, but never did. Imagine trying to navigate around your phone with no home or return button. PITA. I flashed a updated rom to fix it. What was even worse is I set it on the charger when i had TWRP running and it started cycle screens there also. Considering that it changed my navbar settings, scary what it could do with TWRP.

Battery discharge while on charger

Using CM11 snapshot january update
I woke up late last night to see my phone still with the yellow charging light on while it was on the charger. i found that odd since it had been on the charger for almost 4 hours. i went to bed with it at 75% and when i went to the battery page it was at 50%. wierd thing is the graph says "3hr and 50 min on battery" but the line graph shows that its is, in fact, charging. another thing ive noticed is that the wifi line graph is solid, im not 100% sure its supposed to be intermittent, i.e. phone is sleeping and what not.
once i noticed that it was still discharging i looked at running apps, nothing outside what anyone else would have running at the end of the night. after i cleared the running apps it started charging again.
i know that i may have answered my own question at the end of the second paragraph but chargers put out more power than a phone can consume while being dormant so im trying to isolate a handful of things.
1. is the wifi line graph supposed to be solid all the time? (I didnt think so but)
2. is the rom im using (cm11 snapshot current update) on an outdated kernel?
3. whatever else that can brainstormed
and before i get a but of wrong forum reply's, i dont have a choice i need my 10 reply's to get this into the correct forum..... unless admin moves it into a developer forum....eh...eh?
thanks for any help you guys can provide.

forgot..
solid wifi line.. go to the phones main settings, wifi, wifi settings(3 dots bottom right), advanced, disable scanning always available.
cm uses cm kernel. outdated is when a kernel is no longer good, a lower kernel number doesnt mean anything.
and this kind of post have no business being in development, no mod would ever even consider moving it there. development is for development, not questions that are very basic. you actually got the right forum.
Weird. As Sims said turn wifi scanning to off.
It could be a nightly issue with CM at the current moment, check there.
PS: There are other ROMs than just buying a phone and throwing cyanogen mod on it.
Good deal. Thanks guys.
I know I could put any ROM on a phone I used to have an s4 and did several ROMs with that. Then I had to send it in and they gave me one that was mf3 and I was just tired of jumping through hoops. But I put cm on mine because I getting away from full service and using strictly Google voice on a data only plan for cheaper service (Att is the best service overall where i am but their no contract sucks), and cm, so far, is the only one that has voice plus to integrate gv SMS into you native SMS app. That's my big thing. But if there's other ROMs at utilize voice+ I'm open to them.
I'm going to be of no help to you, but just to let you know, this is the correct forum. Nothing except something that you developed goes in development. Nothing. Questions and all other random things go in either Q&A or General.
I don't see you mention which charger you used. Wired? Stock charger and cable? The WiFi bar will be solid over night with your WiFi on and never intermittent.

Yea after I was told to look at the WiFi settings, I changed some settings. But yes Its wired. I played around with the cable and it wiggles a bit but I didn't notice it disconnecting but I'll do More investigating on that front over the next few days.

Wiggle won't effect charge speed. Using a different adapter or cable then what came with your phone will effect charging speed however as well as the phone's current draw.
Well yea right. What I meant to say was that I may not be getting a solid connection, and if I had it sitting a certain way, it may not be charging at all, making appear as though the battery was draining "while charging" when it actually wasn't even charging. My biggest thing was that this is the first I've noticed it so. Maybe the cable is just crappy and is giving out. ( not the OE cable)

Most likely it's just the cable then. You may be interested in the contents of this thread including a quick comparison video Bacon made.

Turns out a combo of things. One being the cable with now power output. And the other was just being a cheap cable and was fitting in the port loosely and not maintaining a connection all the time. Thanks for the help.

Issues with my Note 7.....

So let me say I love the note series and have owned all but the 1 and the 5 (no expandable memory or removable battery, sounded like an iphone to me) i even still have my Note Edge (often forgotten about in the line up)
And cant really see going to anything else but not really sure what the future holds for the Note.
Well im on my second note even though i had zero issue with my first note but i decided to play it safe and swap it out for the safe unit.
Since i have done this im starting to have some issues with my safe unit and figured id share my experiences with you guys.
The first issue was and is i occasionally get the moisture detected in charging port notification when i plug my phone in to charge it. The phone has never been in or near water not even in the bathroom during a shower so its strange. Also when this notification pops up the phone wont charge via port but you can still charge it wirelessly.
The latest issue is that ive gotten a irregular charging detected notification and with this one it charges and stops charges and stops constantly like a loose connections or when your cable is frayed and you have to position it just right.....lol
Now if you go into the setting and turn off the fast charge this issue goes away, matter of fact both issues go away. Im wondering if these issues plagued the ones that went poof.
Is anyone else having any similar issues with their Notes?

Same here. On PHE too, no root or mods. Wish PHE was rootable though.
I saw a youtube video about the note 7 exploding under stress tests. And before one of them exploded, the notifications that you explained started happening. Couldnt charge the phone anymore. Wonder if its a charging software glitch that is causing the problem.
Im keeping an eye on it but so far so good. Everything is working like it should mot even any notifications today.

Vernee Mars Pro Fingerprint Sensor Broken

I have had this phone for exactly 24 hours, and until then the fingerprint scanner installed in it worked relatively well.
After 24H the sensor decided to activate repeatedly automatically (without me touching the sensor) and finally, stop working.
It will not register any new fingerprints or react to the unlock feature or nothing at all. Rebooting won't fix anything, I have yet to try a hard reset.
My question is, even though the phone is really new, has any of this happened to you guys before?
If so, How have you fixed it?
Thank you and sorry if this is in the wrong section.
Mine arrived yesterday, I will let you know how I get on. Hope you get it sorted.
Off topic: I really want to Root it so that I can use titanium backup but I think its too new! I also ordered a plastic Vernee Mars (not pro) case in the hope that it fits, almost identical dimensions

I hope it works, mine is still broken, and now the audio doesnt work at all, if im playing music for instance, it will not sound, and every now and then, play 0.1s of the song, it's really a good phone but its getting on my nerves
Also, update me about the case
Also wanting an update on the case, dimensions look to be near enough identical and there are more case option around for the non pro.
So, a new update
The fingerprint scanner decided to work suddenly today, I opened security and decided to see if I could add a fingerprint to unlock it and to my surprise it decided to work.
Regarding the speaker, I found out that if I suck on the speaker (yes, i put my mouth on the speaker hole and aspire air gently) the music, app, game, anything begins playing, and as soon as I stop breathing in it stops playing.
Why is this happening to me? It honestly is super strange, I already contacted gearbest and I hope they help me solve it or give me a new one

The case for the mars fits, pretty much perfect. Did you try a hard reset in the end, at all? Mine is working really well although ive heard the phone is compromised by malware/spyware (did manage to find the folder but you can't disable anything) that's why I am trying to root asap. Other thread is here to follow: https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/tutorial-vernee-mars-pro-root-t3652213
Did post this one in another thread but this one seems better:
--
I have this device a week and it's great. Directly installed the OTA of September. Everything worked fine.
Up and until yesterday the fingerprint scanner was really sensitive maybe too sensitive. Then yesterday evening the phone was charged to 100% before I went to sleep so I plugged it out and powered it down to be fully loaded at 100% this morning.
After starting up it seems that the fingerprint print scanner is a lot less sensitive and sometimes it feels sensitivity is degrading during the day of use, to just no sensitivity at all.
Does someone else experienced the same? Does someone have a solution?

It doesn't seem to be a software problem, but a hardware problem. For me the fingerprint sensor works for some time, then one day it messes up and stops working for a week or so. I really dont know what's wrong, seems to fix by itself.

Thank, so it is a matter of ups and downs?
I did some gaming while on charge yesterday so maybe some heating can cause this?
I also have some Bluetooth issues while calling on my carkit. Music on my carkit is fine. Will an app like Bluetooth Auto connect be of any help?
Besides that I really like the phone overall.

Yes, it seems to be a matter of ups and downs, same with the speaker. Apparently when the humidity is high, my speaker refuses to work at high volumes ( it crackles and then it stops working)
My charger blew up recently actually (But that was because of some problem with my home's powerline). I got a Samsung charger, slightly slower charge, but my battery now lasts for much longer I have realises (I'm speaking 9V charging instead of 12V)
It is true the phone heats a lot, that's why I'd avoid using it while charging or at least if I plan to charge it all the way, since by the end it will be really hot.
Regarding bluetooth, I really havent had any problems whatsoever, therefore I can't really tell, for me bluetooth has always worked well with cars and speakers and so. I doubt an app like that be of any help, since it should pair automatically with the closest bluetooth source so perhaps that could cause a conflict, but I havent tried it so I can't know for sure.

This morning I took it of the charger. Now fingerprint is quite acceptable. Not that over sensitivity which I disliked, and a lot more responsive than yesterday.[emoji2]

Cheered too early, messed up again... It seems that a moist finger works better. It notice the touch better, but then it doesn't recognizes it....
Bleutooth calling went ok today. Seems though that I have the P20 or P25 lite version of the Mars Pro. Not the regular P2t
Should have chosen the Xiaomi Note 4 Global instead... I will monitor it a couple of days but I think I will look for a better 64gb/6gb USB type-c device in the near future....[emoji19]
