I've just found this App in play market: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.szlab.solarcharger&feature=top-free
Has anyone here used it?
How can this work? :s

Edit: I'm trying it now under a strong lamp at my work and I can see the battery meter going down... fail.
Edit x2:
Just saw this in the description on the Apps market...
"Note: Of course this application is not charging your phone. You didn't think so, did you?! The only reason for this app is to collect the mentally challenged trolls - who never read the description this far - complaining about every app. Or you can fool your friends with this nice 'charging feature' if you like.
Do not let your device overheat! Be careful when you put your device under the direct sunlight!"
How come people at XDA fall for this? Read the app description which says it's a troll app

But this technology is possible by capturing ambient light from both manmade sources and the sun and converting it into energy that can be used to recharge a device's central battery unit.

...and furthermore it takes much more energy to manufacture a photovoltaic cell than it will ever reproduce in it's effective working life time. Plus the damage to the environment involved in the processing of the chemicals used to make these cells is something the solar panel industry doesn't want you to know. It's one of the reasons the world isn't solar powered yet.
The other one being that even the high-end (expensive) ones that only drop 1% efficiency per year, will see you wait approx 10 years before they've paid for themselves. Few people take the risk of needing to be in one place for that long just to see a return on their investment.
I love the reviews on that Solar Charger app. I got one of my mates with it (he just got his first smartphone). He complained it dropped the battery. I told him he needed to be facing south!

guYs,
it's official. the Apple ifone is a piece of crap
in Finnland, Europe, many ifones were destroyed because ifones go broken in temperatures below 0° Celsius.
android-user.de magazine reported that ifones were bricked for good just because it got a bit chill outside.
Y phone of course, was never reported to be destroyed by cold weather.

Ever tried to use an iPhone for a long time at -10 °? Does not really! Not so with the Galaxy S II and at other Android phones: They come with temparatures from -20 ° deal still good.
When it gets really cold outside, not only have some finger problems with the operation of the smartphone, and the devices themselves may not Minustemparaturen particularly well. The editors of the Finnish PC magazine MikroPC wanted to know exactly which phone by holding for which temparatures and sent about 25 devices in a refrigeration chamber.
Among the first devices that had problems or the service refused to completely owned the iPhone 4S. Even at -5 ° first problems were encountered and at -10 ° switched to the iPhone 4S in the testers. This is probably the revenge design with metal. Apple is secured in case of damage, but they are the Betriebstemparatur the iPhone officially with 0 ° to 35 °. Even the likes of Nokia N9 cold temperatures, and shows also at -5 ° first mistake already. After all, it is to turn off only at -20 ° Celsius.
Much more room in the cold Samsung admits to his equipment. Officially, the Galaxy II suitable for temparatures between -20 ° and +50 ° Celsius. So it was as well in the tests of MikroPC through and survived significantly longer temparatures up to -35 °. Generally, the testers came to the conclusion that AMOLED displays are better for cold applications, since, in contrast to conventional LCDs, the liquid crystals are virtually frost. In most cases, therefore, in smartphones with AMOLED display, the battery of the sticking point. Is it too cold, they may eventually no longer produce enough voltage.

The most important part is not the amount of power (or pulse energy) but the pulse duration (you use pulsed lasers for this kind of stuff). If the pulse duration is shorter or almost as short as the heat transfer duration between the atoms/molecules, melting is not a problem any more.
The pulse is "gone" before the heat can effect the nearby matter. You will get really sharp edges.
To win this would be awesome but I've never had any problems flashing anything so "unfortunately" I can't enter the competition, on the other hand I'm fortunate to never had any devices bricked!

Quick update for all who entered...
Just a quick update for all those who entered:
We received over a hundred contest entries, most of which were quite epic (perhaps even of the 4g variety)! Picking just 20 winners (10 GSM, 10 CDMA/LTE) was tough, so I added in 3 bonus winners who forgot to write in what type of Nexus they own, but still provided excellent stories. I will send those three an XDA-Developers T-Shirt instead.
Winners will be announced in an hour, at 11:30a Eastern time. At that point, I will shoot off PMs to the lucky few who had the most entertaining and spine-tingling stories asking for their mailing address.
Thank you to all those who participated in the contest. It's amazing how many crazy tales our mobile devices bring us!

If it an issue of not being able to reach spots of your Note2.. use Nova launcher and configure it with swipe actions to do things.
I agree.. redundant.
Plus.. do you see how HUGE this case is?? it adds a massive hunk of case below the phone. The pics are very cleverly making that somewhat transparent so it doesn't look like the phone is any bigger.. but damn.. that's HUGE.

But in all seriousness, you gotta agree this is one of the most original and innovative accessories we have seen for Note 2 so far. Also, making case longer has its advantage to lower your grip for index finger to have more room to control the pad. What I would add to this since micro-usb connection already in place, a built-in external battery and to offer a custom case with some bumper/lip protection.
I keep coming back to this to figure out what problem it solves. with one hand I can reach just about everywhere on the screen that I would under normal non-gaming solutions.
Just not the right product for me.
But if you only have 3 fingers or something, great idea!
For those who are curious, this is basically the answer to the Pantech Vega 6, a korean only phone. I'm sort of surprised something like this came out so soon for the Note II, here it is. You may see more similar stuff like this being common as phones get larger and larger.
here's a short ad for the pantech vega 6, but all in korean. http://youtu.be/QwYhG4E3iiY

Hello,
I would be interested in a sample and would like to try it out. I guess it will be enough to charge the phone by a few% so that you can still make a emergency call before you´re out of juice ?

It's 1000 mAh according to the Indigogo page.
I see, so you can expect a real life charge of about 700mAh if this unit has a efficiency of about 70% ?

Samsung Galaxy Note 7 explodes during charging, witness photos from the aftermath

The aftermath of a Galaxy Note 7 explosion is an ugly sight to see. Still brand new, the phablet has basically turned to charcoal. Unfortunately, no one can tell how the accident was provoked, only that it happened during charging with a microUSB to Type C converter for the cable.

looks like a problem with the non-removable battery!
just another reason that demonstrates that it's not wise to pay 850 EUR for this phone.
what do you guys think?
No info about type of charger, no info about cable used etc. So bullsh.. for me. Btw. It doesn't matter if you have non removable battery or not. I do remember Nokia 3310s which also exploded because of battery or faulty charge so what?
Well. If you use a cheap Chinese knock-off charger, you'll be glad it was only an exploding phone... Too less information to pass judgement yet.

i remember that non-removable batteries have much thinner packaging.
maybe that can contribute to the problem.
i remember 2 similar issues with xiaomi products this year;
if i'm not mistaken, both were non-removable batteries too.
Btw. "The accident seems to have happened in China, where the photos originate from."
There was a cause where iPhones "exploded" because of non original charger from Chinese after market if I remember well.

when you are asked to shell out 850 EUR for a phone, it just has no right to explode/burn itself.
proper engineering should have prevented that.
if it did not, than 850 EUR are just thrown away.
there are plenty of other phones out there that cost 850. You can get the iphone 6s+ with 64GB and pay the same amount and you honestly get a whole lot less.... the price has nothing to do with why the phone exploded. it was probably a bad usb C cable. That guy from google has been warning us!
I think the proper engineering on the other side of the cable was absent.
I have my doubts about this "accident". Sounds like sabotage to me.

what about the xiaomi ones?
same thing???
I was concerned at the headline, but once I read the story there isn't enough info to make a snap judgement call. When I read it was in China I figured they used a cheap knockoff charger of some sort, causing the explosion. Time will tell.
Wouldn't surprise me if this was a ploy for attention sake either.
%100 Sabotage. Happy with Note 7. No scratches, no glitches..
I think you need to educate yourself more about LiPo technology before you go pointing fingers. A cheap Chinese charger could very well be to blame. Want to see what happens when you overcharge a LiPo battery?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixIOEPnsgbI
And where is the Samsung logo. The entire phone could be a cheap Chinese knockoff. Or a glass screen protector covering it but who knows. Either way I always think twice before believing exploding batteries do so under typical conditions.

Big leap on your part to automatically assume this is: A) a Samsung vs. user induced problem, and B) this impacts more than a single Note7 in China. A better question would be "why would you?"
If that's an exploded phone I would be more worried about the quality of the explosives.
First of all, China?
Officially, the Note 7 is not released in China yet, yes? So this bloke prolly need to import this from elsewhere, question is from where?
Secondly, charging conditions.
Which charger did he use? Did he require an adapter due to different plug heads? Which cable? The photos did show him using a USB-C converter. Too many questions, not enough answers.
But lastly, where on earth is the Samsung logo? Yes, it exploded. But it couldn't have blown up the logo so perfectly. The photos shows the screen blown up, not the earpiece area. Even if it did affect, there should still be signs of the logo remaining.
