[Q] Auto start when connect to charger

Hi,
Ive googled about this matter and cant seem to find a solution for the galaxy tab s lte but for other samsung devices since s3 is possible.
Ive also tried the Auto Power On app (paid apps) both of them didnt work and requested a refund.
It seems that we have to modify the file /system/bin/playlpm or /system/bin/lpm or /system/bin/ipod for this to work.
Ive tried everything and still doesnt work on the galaxy tab s lte.
What i need is for the tablet to boot upon connected to charger when the state is off. Now all i can see is the battery icon stating its charging but never boot into android.
Anyone have any idea how to make this work for the galaxy tab s lte?
Cheers.

Well it begs the question as to why in the world would anyone want this?
I wouldn't want my tab on every time I charge it.

I think you would need a custom rom, don't the apps you can download/buy, need your device to be already running so they can shutdown or run an app or change a mode when they detect you plugging in or removing the charger.

Why would anyone need this? Let me answer you.
Some of us use our android tablets in cars ... There's app to make the tablet shutdown when u turn off the engine and the power is disconnected (tons of them).
But when u start the engine back and the power is re-connected, the tablet wont turn on. Right now the only solution i can do is to use tasker to airplane mode on the device when the display is off, and airplane mode off when the display turns back on. This saves power so that the tablet doesnt run out of juice overnight in the car.
So most of this has to do with in-car tablet systems that you want it to boot up as you start your engine. I can custom rom my tablet to run CM12 however even CM12 doesnt boot up, some settings needs to be changed and im not sure which part so i need some help on this.
Cheers.

Another reason not to want it then

LOL thats a good one ....
Anyway back to serious matter ... Any one out here can help me with this problem? I think it would help a lot others too that are looking for a solution. a CM12 solution would be great also coz i can flash the tablet with CM12.
Thanks in advance.

C'mon. You and I both know that this is a niche scenario, and normally it's a bad idea. If your running low enough on battery to run you device dead, you want it to charge a while before turning on. We've all been waiting on a dead phone to get a few percentage points charged so that way it doesn't die immediately upon startup.

I've been leaving my Tab S on a constant power supply in the car. This means I have to turn it on and off manually. I have been toying with using Tasker to turn the screen on/off based on connection with a BT device that would be powered by an switched power source.
The problem I get is warning messages about trying to charge the battery while it is too hot or too cold.

Why dont u try this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.as.powerchecker it will close the android once ur power is disconnected from the car ...
As for turning it back on when u start. Still no solution ...

Any help guys? Last time asking ...

Using Tasker and Secure Settings, I can get the tablet to turn the screen on and off when the power is connected. If rooted, you could turn Airplane Mode on and off in Tasker also. But short of a change in the firmware, I have no idea how to power off and restart based on external power connection.

From what I remember, when CM12 was still buggy... when you connect a charger when it was powered off, it would show the battery icon and automatically reboot into recovery. Of course that was a bug, so I don't really know.

Same here, did you find an answer?

Same here but no solution found
Iam trying to set my tablet to auto start/boot when charger is connected in mini usb port. I didnot find lpm.sh in root\system\bin folder to modify. But i found ilm file with below script. Plz tell how to modify to make powered off tablet to boot when charger is connected.
Script to start "pm" on the device, which has a very rudimentary
# shell.
#
base=/system
export CLASSPATH=$base/framework/ime.jar
exec app_process $base/bin com.android.commands.ime.Ime "[email protected]"

You can instruct init to reboot the device whenever charger mode is detected. Create a new .rc file or edit any existing one:
# /system/etc/init/off_mode_charge.rc
on charger
setprop sys.powerctl reboot,leaving-off-mode-charging

Serfify App - India

I recently installed Serfify app which cover accidental damage protection in India for a period of 1 year from the date of purchase.
While using this app I ran Diagnose my device . Everything worked fine except the charging port. When I connect the charging port the app doesn't provide a a tick mark. But the device is charging perfectly. Is this a bug with the app or any problem with my one plus 3. Anyone facing similar issue?

As u can see device is charging but app not detecting it.

Don't worry, I've the same problem. It's probably a bug in the app.

It's a bug.
Seems to be a bug with the app. I just tried it out and it shows the same result on my device too. Don't worry about it.

Phone not charging or connecting to computer with usb cable!

It started yesterday with me trying to charge my phone in the car getting only 10% every hour. Eventually, My battery died that day and then again refused to charge with my normal sony charger or a friend's Samsung charger. It didn't connect to my laptop as well. I have done a factory reset. I've gone into safe mode. Still, hasn't charged. The only way I can charge my phone now is when I switch it off and then hold the volume up and power button till a blue notification light which I think is force charging it. I got it to 100% yesterday, everything works just fine it's just I'm not able to connect my phone to my laptop to reset or fix the software. I'm not able to charge the phone while its on.
I hope I don't need to take this to the service center to get fixed, cause service here where I stay is unbearable.
Hope one of you guys have a solution for me!

Hi, you really need to be a bit more descriptive if you want someone to help
What is your setup? Unlocked? Rooted? MM or LP? Stock or Customized, etc...

I dont think it's the battery or it wouldn't charge in any condition but anyway if you're pure stock try with PC Companion, it might not be charging but it's recognized right?

Mmmh, that sonds more like a port issue... Something happened to the usb connector on the phone itself? It's certainly and odd behaviour. Not having a conncetion to your handset restricts your options unfortunately. Just to be sure you've tried on another PC so you may want to do a SW reset as the only possibility other than taking it in to Sony Service. Who knows, with a bit a luck a full reset will resolve your problem

Did you manage to find out how to fix. I'm having the exact same problem

Three months back i faced same problem. I pressed the back of my phone where the NFC sign N and then press the middle of the phone. After that insert the cable and my phone started scharging. Secondly insert charging cable with sony adpoter and start pressing back side of your mobile on different location. I hope it will work.

Thanks for the tip. I tried and it did not work tho

Maybe the slow charge setting is on? Try disabling all features (auto adjust brightness etc)
Just for giggles try to set to ultra power save mode and see if it fixes it.

Help!!!!!!

I`ve got a problem with my HTC that I can`t solve. First it wouldn`t charge, then the speaker suddenly turns on/off while speaking with someone. While texting, the messages suddenly disappear, so I have to type it again. Then my car navigation app turns on and off for no reason. I installed the antivirus protection and it`s still the same. Then I reinstalled the software , but still no changes. Has anyone ever had a similar experience, and what did you do to fix the problem? Thanks in advance.

R u tried charge your phone with another charging cable ??

Not charging, and randomly going to car mode; both indicate an issue with the MicroUSB port.

That would be my thought, yes.
Although I don't think it explains the other problems. Running the proper RUU (if OP's version has one) may be a good idea, and see if it helps with any of the problems.

Question phone wont turn on, need help

i was playing a mobile game that has high graphics, when my phone started to showing network private dns not being found error message. also started having a bit of wifi issues, had to reboot to fix it
5min later screen freezes during gameplay and turns black. couldn't do anything. i had to reboot it, but the same thing kept happening over and over again for while. until the last reboot, above the poco logo boot-screen a thick static line showed up and instead of going into the homescreen it stayed black.
can't seem to charge it either, when i connect a usb i don't hear any sounds. what happened? why is this happening
P.S. battery was still high if this needs to be known info, was wired to my pc. also didn't do any updates either.
edit: there are times i hear the boot up jingle when pressing powerbutton, but thats it
edit 2: can connect with usb (hear jingle), but screen is still black

but can you reboot to recovery or bootloader, by holding the right buttons when rebooting. (recovery power + volume up. release power when screen on. bootloader same story but volume down).
The usb port and the display cable are really close to each other. maybe because you kept the usb plugged in while gaming, you created some sort of movement and partly disconnected the display cable.

maybe just maybe your screen going bad because over heat try to call your phone if you could hear the sound yep sounds like your get bad screen and need replacement

It does - phone is garbage imo. Unless u lucked out and got unlocked version of GPU ( Search konabess 870 ) I'd probably sell it / swap it for some 865 device.
Something like mi 10t pro can do 20hours screen on time with right tweaks
First take it for repair - this is hardware issue that they need to fix under Warranty - then figure out what you wanna do with it

it happen to me when trying some pixel oriented roms. the phone itself can charge but the screen always dark, you might be able to feel slight warn on the back. yes its hardware and I change the whole motherboard freely on xiaomi service center

if it doesnt turn on anymore that could be becuz of overheating were you using performance mode? if you hear a sound and/or if you can go into recovery its likely the screen has been damaged or its the display port or ribbon

well it doesn't turn on anymore, very rarely i feel it vibrate so i guess hardware issue?
i was playing on normal mode, didn't switch anything.
also if the motherboard is fried, does that mean my data is losted

if you feel it vibrate then its probably the screen better take it to a repair shop if you have warranty but dont let them give you a new phone or you'll lose your data
tell them to keep your data

what if its hardware? is my data gone?

depends on the part of the phone if its the motherboard your data is likely to not be restored by the average repair shop

its going to be send to a xiaomi repair center according to the seller since i have warranty, are they going to save my data? are they known to do that?
