S III Died on Charger Overnight

I plugged my S III on the charger last night before I had gone to bed. This morning the phone wasn't on and so I thought maybe the charger had gone bad. So I put in my spare Samsung battery. The phone still didn't boot. So I took the battery out and plugged the phone into the computer to see if it would come on. Nothing. I've been running a rooted stock ROM, specifically the one that didn't trip the flash counter. Any ideas?

Was there a storm the night you left it plugged in?

It could be a short circuit.

What is why I do not plug in all my chargers directly to the wall...
Use a UPS with builtin circuit protector and ground before plugging in your expensive GS3 or iPad 3 or whatever other gadgets you might have.

No, there was no storm. Clear skies all around. The phone gets warm at the bottom like it is charging, but nothing comes on.

Nope. Got it June 25th.

Return to Samsung, the warranty period is one year. You can read more on Warranty Guide (that come with the phone) what is covered and what's not.
Good luck :good:

I knew there was a one year warranty. Was hoping a ota update broke it and I could fix it. Not been my day. Blown suspension on my car this morning.

Damn! Sounds like a ****ty day! Hope things get better for you. Samsung should replace it one would think. But would rooting it void it?

Well the phone isn't turning on at all so I'm not terribly sure how they'd figure out it was rooted. Also, where is the model code? Not the model name, SGH I747. Samsung's site was asking for it and the choices were something like SGHI747MBAATT.

It's either on the box or behind your battery on your phone.

Same exact thing happened to my phone, I took it to the store and luckily they exchanged it for me (even though it was well past 30 days). Good luck.

I think you just got a lemon from day one Samsung phones are cheap to begin with. Mine has been fine so far but I do baby it.

I babied mine too. Has screen protectors in before I got the phone.
Thanks guys. Gonna go by AT&T today after work on the off chance Rey replace it out of the 30 day period. Then I'll call Sammy if they don't.

I think there was some sort of power outage over night in your area and it came back before you woke up.. happened to me once

This is exactly why I installed a whole house surge protector, as well as each outlet in my house are individually surge protected. They cost more when I was building the house, but worth the additional $1K I spent upgrading all my outlets.

Those are what each outlet has. My home theater has a seperate monster 7 outlet protector.

Sounds like a good idea when I decide to have my house built!

Oh that's just neat. And AT&T would not outright exchange it, but I talked to their warranty dept. and they are sending me a new one and I'll out the old one in the box to send back to them. Guy I spoke to said he waived the few for the two day shipping. While I was glad, I couldn't help but feel like not giving warranty issues two day shipping for free to begin with is a bit of a ripoff. My device broke and I may have to wait more than a week to get a new one? Wth?

Panasonic QE-TM101

Unless I've missed it from my research but I haven't seen any mention of this Wireless Qi charger from Panasonic. Seems pretty good as it also goes and detects the device, so no need to move the phone or the tablet around to ensure it is charging. One fairly common complaint I notice is that they have to move the device around to ensure the charger finds the phone\tablet.
I'm wondering if anyone has any experience with this as I may be picking it up for my Sexy Nexie 4 and 7. Or at the very least, here's another option for everyone to look into for their devices.
Here's a video review of some drunk guy on YouTube.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUpr6JkP5ow

I have had mine for a couple of weeks. Love it. My tablet pretty much stays charged all the time.

I have one I bought for my Nexus 4 as soon as my N4 arrived in January. Works fine with the Nexus 7 - although never seems to switch off from charging. When I leave it charging over night the charge light almost always on in the morning but the Nexus 7 only feels barely warm. So probably it is just trickle charging.

From your experience approximately how long does it take to charge the Nexus 7? My other concern about wireless charging is how it affects the battery life overall. I'm assuming you guys only place it on the charger from empty to full all the time?

x2, I am afraid it would shorten the battery life.

Pretty much I am either holding my nexus or it is laying on the charger. From its lowest point, maybe 20%, it will charge to full in 4-5 hours. Then the light on the charging pad starts flashing.

I should add, the nexus is noticeably warm when I take it off the charging pass. This is not a trickle charge.

To clarify my earlier post:
Charging for N7 takes a long time - I guesstimate charging time is 5 or 6 hours. I normally charge it overnight. My N4 charges and switches off at around 95%. N7 charges to full charge.
The Panasonic charging coil seeks out the best position for charging the device. The N7 coil is physically in the centre of the back, so position placement really doesn't matter much.

flashing means something wrong

I have one, works perfectly well with the Nexus 7. The charging coil in the station is motorized, so it'll sound like a quiet inkjet printer when it positions the coil, but it's not loud at all and doesn't bother me. Works especially well if it's on your nightstand... especially when it's time to go to bed and you're too tired to bother with a cable or another Qi charger in the dark. As long as you don't place the tablet like halfway off the station, it should work.
As far as cutting off charge, some people have said that it charges to 100% then won't initiate charging again until the device drops to 90%. Haven't really had a chance to test it, but every time I've picked up my tablet after a night of charging, my Nexus is at 100%.

totally not trying to thread-crap.... just figured I should mention that AT&T is selling the Nokia DT900 at half price.. $25 for wireless charging is great way to give it a try. It's working perfectly with my N7 and N4... I just ordered a 2nd.

Thanks I've seen the thread and it is a very good deal

Have had this since my nex 4 this came out a year or two ago, I saw it there when I was in japan.
worked fine on my nex4 and nexus 7 2nd gen.
I tried it with the yijieneng receiver on my s4 but didnt work with case on, didn't try it without.
been using the samsung pad because it tops off the battery, where as the panasonic stops once it hits 100%.

I ordered one friday, and it arrived today (tuesday) from eBay second hand for about $25
Using a generic QI receiver from ebay, when i first turned it on and put my phone on, 'oh hello phone here have some power'
then my curiosity attacked me and said 'THERES A BUTTON THERE PRESS THAT BUTTON WHATS IT DO!? so i pressed it then got to spend some time trying to figure out what i had done. DONT PRESS THE BUTTON, i think it has different modes, for finding the phone, after i pressed it the pad wasn't happy with my phones location and just kept moving left and right not charging.. but its working now xD
Im trying to find a copy of the manual online but not having any luck...
Haven't tested the speed yet, but its rated at 1amp so i presume it to be the same as most QI chargers on the market
Edit: speed is great.

Odd. I, too, had purchased a Nokia DT900, and it did not work with the Nexus 7 for me - AT ALL! I have since read that it didn't work for many Nexus owners.
I had to return it.
I then bought this Panasonic model, and it's been flawless (even through my MOKO case).

Sorry to hear it. The DT900 was a total bust with my N4, but still working great with my N7.
Sigh, as others have said, it still feels like this is such a beta level feature (ie. that there has to be so much luck getting the right combination of products to make it work)

Still waiting for mine that was ordered from eBay. Once I saw the tracking feature with the LEDs it was an instant buy, lol.

Yup works great!

I've got a DT-910, which looks similar but holds the phone upright, and it's working fine. So I'd imagine the 900 works the same.

Yes, works for me too.
Last night it charged my phone from 16% to full in ablout 2.5 hours.
Today I'm gonna see how quickly the USB charger does it but I'm assuming faster than that.
Still, under 3 hours 0 to Full from wireless is fine by me.

just picked up a few, thanks for the heads up. what a great deal, esp when google seems to be dragging their feet on releasing the official charger

I picked up 3 for holiday gifts.
I already have two DT-900's that I replaced with LG WCP 300's (40.00 each) which I currently still use.
The LG's are faster by 25-30% (estimate) but at this price point the DT-900's are a far better purchase.
Thanks for the heads up!

good to hear at least one getting good results with thi sone. i ordered it the same day as i ordered my nexus and it seems to be stuck in USPS limbo (along with nearly everything else i've ordered lately, ugh.) it was due to arrive yesterday and was last scanned as departed from a city about an hour away yesterday morning.

Just brought! Thanks man! this is my first wirelesss charger. I have two questions for anyone that has the answer.
1)Can you charge the nexus 5 while the phone is off? ???
2) When the phone charges to 100% will it then STOP charging? I was to use this while Im sleeping so I can leave my phone to charge overnight and not have to worry about it over charging and draining the sealed battery and also dont want the phone to over heat. so does it stop charging once it reaches 100%?????

Tylt Vu vs. Google Nexus Wireless Charger

So I got both of these for Christmas but it's a little overboard to keep them both so I'll be sending one back.

Which would you prefer and why?

If you check out the forum there are people who express concerns about the TYLT causing the N5 to overheat. Based on that alone, I would go with the Nexus Charger.

I've had the vu for several months (got it from kick starter). Used it with nexus 4 and now nexus 5. I have no over heating issues. It gets no warmer than my other 3 qi chargers (energizer, lg puck, and generic). Granted I don't have the official n5 charger, but I would take the vu because it's a stand and I love that.

Does the Vu actually charge the phone whether in portrait or landscape sitting on the charger? Cause last i remember, they advertised that in the promo video, but looking closely at the promo video showed the phone NOT charging in landscape orientation.

I have the Tylt Vu, the new Nexus Charger, the Orb, the LG (Verizon branded) pad, and the Energizer pad.
I have had the Tylt Vu even before the Kickstarter finished lol. It just showed up at my office one day. I got it for my Nexus 4. Worked fantastically until I tried putting Kit Kat on the N4. I had heating issues and I believe due to wakelocks, but that's not proven. I stopped using it because it kept waking the phone up at night and that bugged the living bejezzus out of me and changed it out for the LG pad until a fix for my waking issues on the N4. Then when the N5 was introduced, it was a no brainer and I bought that one to replace my N4. I gave the LG pad and N4 to my wife and now using the Tylt at home for my everynight charging and no waking in the middle of the night.
I use the new Nexus Wireless charger in the car in conjunction with a vent mount. And because I use a bumper, the magnets grab without issues. I tried my set up with a tpu case and also the Ringke Fusion and neither would stick.
Now I am waiting for my early bird Air dock from indiegogo and seeing if that works better than my diy setup lol.

So I used it and it does get noticeably warm. I haven't experienced it getting hot yet though. The official charger gets my nexus 5 temperature to around 25.5 degrees celcius and the tylt gets my phone to around 37 degrees celcius. I'm not totally sure which one I want to keep yet.

I got this one. Works well. My only compliant would be that the phone does not easily come off the dock. You have to hold down the dock in order to pull the phone free of it.

So I just ordered one of those from Amazon. Should be here early next week and I will try to give you my impressions of it, though I still don't have my V20 so I can't really test it out fully.

Did you get it cheaper than what androidcentral is selling them for? When is your V20 supposed to be coming in?

It came out to $30.90 on Android Central including shipping, which would take 7-11 days. On Amazon with Prime it's $31.95 so for the extra dollar I'd rather just get it in two days and not have to worry in case my phone decides to come, plus very easy returns in case it doesn't work or for some reason I just really don't like it.
I pre-ordered from B&H but still no word from them on when it will ship. Somebody on Reddit said he spoke to them on Live Chat a few days ago and they told him "soon after the 1st"... FWIW I spoke to somebody on Live Chat a few days ago too and they said they had no information to give me. However something I noticed is that the listing on the B&H site recently changed from "Expected Availability: November whatever whatever" to "Ship Date: Not Available". So I hope that means it's going to be shipping soon. I live right outside of NYC so usually anything I buy from them gets here next-day. Everybody who have their carrier-branded phones already are really making me impatient to get my hands on this thing.

Cool. I got my Verizon on Oct 21st and so far I'm loving it. Great phone!

Ok, just got my phone today. Same! This thing is pretty awesome. I'm really liking it so far. I shot off an email to Seidio at the beginning of the week asking them about the charging specs of the dock and if fast-charge would work through it... they never got back to me but when I put my phone in the dock today it said fast-charging was enabled! Kinda surprised to be honest but looks like it works. Only problem is the cable is bright white and the charger is like a dark matte black. Gonna have to look into buying a different cable.

I purchased this one. It works fine although I whish it was a little heavier so I wouldnt have to hold it down so hard when removing the phone from it. I do like the height adjustability of the connector so it works with different cases.

That's the one I got. The thing I especially love is that even though you do have to hold the dock down as you pull the phone off, the dock has plenty of area to press down on and the resistance of the phone unplugging is relative small. I had a dock for my Note 4 and first of all, the phone required quite a bit of force to pull off the charger, and second of all, the stand didn't really have much area to hold down on while pulling off the phone.
So coming from past experience, trust me, this dock is pretty nice despite the flaws. Lol
