Samsung Wireless Charger (not rapid) Problems

I decided to make a thread on this as I keep seeing people reporting problems with the Samsung branded wireless charger in use with their Note 5 or Galaxy 6+ Edge. I am trying to get an idea of how prevalent this is.

What happens is this, I put the phone on the charger and it lights up showing it is placed appropriately and it charges. It then charges for a time period, and will suddenly stop and the LED blinks blue. This can happen after 1 minute to an hour or so into the charge, to not at all. Often, unplugging the charger and plugging it back in seems to reset it and it works again. Very bizzare. I returned the first charger like this and got a second one, but it does the same thing.

I am wondering if Sammy did this on purpose to get us to buy the rapid wireless charger when it comes out....

Also, I know it is not my Note 5, as my other wireless charger works fine.

Please post your experience with this charger.

Capacitive Buttons Problems: pls HELP!!

Hi All,

The capacitive buttons of my OPO suddenly stopped working. My phone didn't drop and has no physical damage. I tried an hard reset by flashing CM11s (from COS 12) via unlocking bootloader and executing the right commands in Fastboot mode, but the problem still persists.

I switched to screen buttons, but I prefer the physical buttons for my usage.

My phone is 9 month old and It's very strange that an hardware problems materialize in this way (no new app installed when the problem arose).

Has anyone experience the same problem or someone know how to fix it?

Thanks in advance for help

Notification problems for Emergency and DND

I have 2 problems that might be related. I am unsure.

1. I am not getting emergency notifications. I see the alert listed when I tap Emergency, but no notification. Extreme, Servere and Amber are all checked. It is also supposed to repeat every 15 minutes & play notification sound and vibrate. Nothing
I am told the alert is supposed to override DND, but this did not.

2. My DND is not turning off according to schedule. The settings are:
DND turned on until turned off & set to priority
Auto decline checked
Play Alarms checked
Events and reminders off
Calls on
Message on
Calls or messages from Approved contacts only
I have set up a list of approved contacts
Schedule for Priority (previously I had it set up for mon-sat begin at 9:00pm until 5:00am next day. HTC tech support suggested I set up a new schedule so I created a new one for just today starting at 8:00 until 6:00am tomorrow)

Previously I tried having my bank (which is on the approved contacts list) sent a text. No notification sound. I tried calling from a non-approved phone number and it went straight to vm. After setting up the new schedule, I tried another text from my bank. No notification. When I turned off DND I get the notification.

HTC chat tech support was less then helpful. As I was setting up the new schedule he asked quickly 2 times if I was there then disconnected. LOL

I could set it up on tasker but I like the fact if someone calls within a few minutes it will ring through.

Thanks everyone

GS6 Edge - New WiFi problems - Wont connect to work WiFi anymore

Ive had my GS6 Edge for a few months now and never had WiFi connection problems at work.

My family and I recently went on a 17 day road trip, staying at hotels along the way. Of course we wanted to use the WiFi where we stayed, and also at misc. restaurants along the way too.

Now that Im back at work, for some reason my phone wont connect to any of the secure wifi networks at my job. I use the same credentials as I did before, but all I get is "Authentication Error" when it wont connect. The IT guys say nothing has changed with the settings. I even had one of the IT guys try to fix it on my phone with no success. I have no problem connecting to my secure network at home however.

I downloaded WiFi Manager and "forgot" any old networks that I dont use anymore. Ive even tried clearing the cache in recovery. Im not rooted either.

Anyone else have similar problems, or know how to fix this?:mad:

MMS problems

Hi guys

So I've had an odd problem for quite a long time now and I can't seem to find a fix.
So the first problem is that I can't send mms with the default message app but with the app Textra I can.. But it only works if I take the picture using the Textra app (if you press the camera in the Textra app the text area turns into the camera view so the picture is not as big as a picture taken by a normal camera app), if I try sending myself an mms it always works for some reason.
It's really bugging me I can't send pictures taken with the camera app, any help will be appreciated!

And BTW my provider is a Danish one named Bibob which uses Telenor's APN.

Thanks

Random restart and bootloop problems

hi guys, i'm a note 3 international version(SM-N9005) owner. Since a couple of months ago my device updated to the last version of lollipop available in Italy (ITV) start to restart randomly and stuck in bootloop and the only way to revive the device is to do a factory reset from recovery. This situation is very frustrating and drives me mad because every time i lost all data. My device is full stock, i've never rooted it and never done any sort of modding including changing recovery. There's a way to avoid this situation?

Problems with Odin

I tried to flash the stock firmware via Odin for the SM-T320 / mondrianwifi.

I have tried Odin 3.10.6 and 3.09. I used the cellular south firmware listed on Sammobile. I tried the 2015-03-01 and 2014-11-01.

Each time I tried to flash the firmware, it just stays at the SAMSUNG screen on boot. I wait 45 minutes or more each time.

Can anyone help me? Thanks in advance.

SuperSu Nexus 4 problems

Hi,

I recently upgraded my Nexus 4 to 5.1.1
Thus I wanted to re-add SuperSu. Problem is that after flashing I can't click any buttons in the SuperSu popup.
I can just allow any root request and they work but I the apps that request do not get added anymore.
So I tried to uninstall it and flash another root app.
I got one that showed the installed su binaries and it told me, even after uninstalling it, I still have SuperSu 2.45.
Whats even stranger: I flashed SuperSu 2.46? Why does it say 2.45.
It seems the binaries do not get replaced.

How do I purge the binaries for a fresh start, maybe with other binaries?

OTA 3.1 Wi-Fi problems?

Anyone have problems with Wi-Fi after installing 3.1?

I've received my replacement tablet and booted it up the first time, but didn't connect to Wi-Fi just to check it out - Wi-Fi was working as it prompted me and listed the various SSIDs around me. It was running 5.0.1.

Proceeded to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP and root.

From TWRP I installed the Full 3.1 OTA and rooted. I screwed up and didn't reformat the data partition so I had a boot loop at first. Formatted the Data partition and was up and running. However, on booting Wi-Fi no longer turns on and no MAC addresses are reported. It's also very slow accessing Wi-Fi settings.

Downgraded using the Full OTA 3.0 (pulled version) and Wi-Fi works fine and MAC addresses are present.

Reinstall 3.1 and Wi-Fi no longer works again with missing MAC addresses.

Problems pairing phone to car bluetooth

I was having an issue connecting my phone to my cars bluetooth, but called the manufacturer and was able to fix it. Certain bluetooth devices store a certain number of connected phones, and once that limit is reached, no more phones can be added. Since I did not manually unpair my prior phones, I couldn't add my G4. I had to reset my cars bluetooth receiver manually in order to remove all previously paired phones, and was then able to pair my G4 without any problems! Hope this helps!

Stock weather app problems

Does anyone know how to solve problem with stock weather app?

I have new LG G4 H815 on v10c firmware, and noticed that weather app did not work (it worked on initial setup of the cities and settings, but would not update after that).
I uninstalled weather theme, thinking it may cause the problem, but weather app does not work without it at all. Now I am trying to install it, but update only starts and ends immediately, without downloading anything.

I tried restarring and clearing cache of weather app, but the problem persists.

Rooting Problems

Hi guys I'm sure you've seen this type of thread a million times.

Anyway I tried to root my phone everything was going fine had TWRP ask if I wanted to install SU said yes and then got stuck on the dreaded boot loop.

After probably pressing things I shouldn't of I appear now to have no OS on my phone.

I found a video that said I can download an RUU but I can't find a link that works for the one I need.

I also found a video that suggested using ADB but that doesn't detect my phone when I use ADB Device in a command prompt.

Any help would be appreciated It might need dumbing down for me ;)

I can get into fastboot and recovery from my phone and I can't seem to get my phone by USB to allow access to folders.

Small update when I select ADB Sideload from TWRP it detects my device not sure if that helps.
