Hello!
I have a Android phone (SG S4mini) that i put on my car to work with TorqueOBD2 and GMaps apps.
I'm from Salvador, Bahia, Brasil and here is super very hot place. And so, to avoid start a fire on my veichle I remove the phone baterry, put a Buck Converter (12v for 3.7v) and connect on post ignition key, direct on baterry terminals (soldering)
All works perfect for a long time till now. But my only problem is: i need manually turn on the phone every time I turn on the car.
So, I need a way to automatic turn on my phone on when voltage (or current) is detect on baterry.
Just to be clear, is not boot when charging, because I do not use the charge port. Is BOOT WHEN VOLTAGE/CURRENT IS DETECTED ON BATERRY TERMINALS.
Plz I really need help!

i tryed this: HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\usbfndrv\EnableUsbCharging = 0
but the result is - indicator dont show craging, but the battery actualy charges (i put him on link in20%, after hour (indicator all of the time showing 20%) & restart - indicator says - 75%.
my question is - is there an additional software, or option, that dont allows charge of the battery on usb link ?
Hey
Did you soft reset your device after changing the reg? Maybe this would help.
Why would charging the orbit cause a problem anyway? Its great to be able to charge the orbit from just plugging it into my pc/works pc.
the problem of this hack is not in the restart:
"Disable usb charge
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Drivers\BuiltIn\usbfndrv" set "EnableUsbCharge" to 0 and softreset
Be careful whith this tweak because it doesn't seem to charge (no amber LED) but it does !"

i what to aware from "cicles" on the batery, which it takes from any plug into charge. (same way i shortly take the life from my ipod battery, when i use him for long time like mobile hdd storage) I whant to full discharge & full recharge my battery every time - just a little wirednes of mysalf. i belive this is good for batterys performance.
I'm hoping some of you wise heads on here might be able to help me out with a problem that has got me totally and utterly stumped!
Last week I was using my One X and noticed the battery was down to aorund 14%. I plugged it into a charger and nothing happened...no light...nothing. I tried various different chargers and cables to pc etc and nothing seemed to do anything.
After leaving the phone plugged into the mains for a few hours, I noticed that a very slow/long flashing red/amber light appeared. It kind of stays on for 5 seconds and then off for the same amount of time. I left the phone in this state for about 14 hours and when turning on it would say battery was somewhere between 0%, 1% and 2% and would promptly switch itself off.
I messed about for hours on end trying many different button combinations, sim in/out and came to this bizarre conclusion.........If I plug the phone into the mains for a few minutes, then press power and volume down to get to the HBOOT menu then hold power in again to reboot, the phone reboots into the OS and is functional. It still reads as having 0% or 1% battery and shows as not charging, but it must be getting some juice for it to be working. If I leave the phone in this state for a while I can then unhook it from the charger and use it as normal, even though battery is displaying as 0%. I can use the phone like this for some time, although the battery does not appear to last as long.
Also, the phone is not recognised at all by the PC when plug in via usb when in android os - nothing at all shows in device manager, but it is recognised from the fastboot menu and tries to install device drivers.
Has anybody got any clue if I can save my HOX or am I without a paddle?? Many thanks in advance
so i was using it normally (about 45% battery), plugged in a usb cable as i wanted to transfer a file from PC to the tab. in the middle of the transfer, i noticed the file was stuck and the tab had frozen. so i unplugged it, and the tab turned off and restarted. however, it wasn't able to restart. i was able to see the screen backlight turn on for about 2 seconds and it would go fully black (off) again.
i kept trying to turn it on, go to download mode , but it did the same thing (backlight screen on) for about 8 times, and then... finally it FULLY died. the backlight wasn't even able to turn on. i charge it int he charger for 10 hours, and it is STILL fully dead.
i got this tab from TD bank so i dont have a receipt, so how does warranty work...?

Do you hear anything, or see any response when you plug it into the charger?
Can you test the charger & cable with another phone to make sure they work?
yes it charges my other android stuff (it is the charger from the tablet). no it doesnt make any sounds
i feel like if there is a way i can remove the battery, i might be able to turn it back on.
That's a Drag
For a few weeks I've had intermittent problems with my phone not detecting the USB connection and randomly turning itself on. After a while, these problems stopped and some new problems appeared. Now the phone is always detected on USB, but refuses to charge saying Charging paused, battery temperature too high. It does this every time I try to charge it. If the phone is off, it shows a yellow triangle with a thermometer. Along with this the softkeys and home button quit working at the same time.
So far I have tried resetting to factory default, a new battery and replacing the USB charging flex port and it still won't charge. Monitoring programs show the temp fixed at 60C and never moves. Is there a replacement I can get for the temperature sensor or some way to disable the check? I am rooted and am willing to try anything. Right now it's looking like I may need a new motherboard.
I have ordered a wall charger so I can at least use the phone and I downloaded a softkey app so I have buttons again.
Hello guys, i came to a problem, i have installed the prestigio multipad wize 3407 4g in my car. I used FCC Car launcher as an explorer and tasker for automatically waking and sleeping the tablet, when he receives power from the car. Almost everything worked fine except sometimes the tablet alone just muted the media volume which i don´t have a clue why ? If somebody does , your welcome to help However, when the tablet run of battery i could not turn it on again. Just to be clear, to made the tablet turn automatically on when he will ran out of battery , i edited the file kpoc_charger with this:
#!system/bin/sh
/system/bin/reboot
It worked good just as I wanted because when i turned him off and connected to charger, he showed the battery icon for a second and booted up. However when i finally installed him in car and he ran out of battery when i was away from the car, he was not able to boot up again. All he did when he got electricity was that he showed battery icon and tried to boot up, but he didnt make it. I think it happens because he dont have any power in battery (in reserve) for the boot proces. I tried to let him charge from the wall charger through the night but it did not help. After some time when i tried to manually turn it on he will completely refuse (looks like he dont have any power in battery at all), and only will show battery icon for a microsecond. Can somebody please help me how to bring him to live again and what to do to overcome this? Thanks
