[Q] Overcome 10.1 Series v2.3.0 problems while charging... - Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello gyus, got a problem with Overcome 10.1 Series v2.3.0. While im charging my tab (P7510) the tab goes crazy. For example i touch e or another key on the keyboard, the tab recognizes b (example) or another part of the screen. As i already said this problem only comes up while charging, while im not charging it, this problem doesnt appear.
BTW, i'm using Pershoots Kernel.
Do you know how to solve this problem, does this problem also appear on your tab, or is this problem known?
Greetings

I don't use the ROM personally, but I think the guys in the thread for this ROM would have welcomed the question there. Could also be Pershoots kernel so just as well you posted this here. hopefully someone will get here with the knowledge needed to help.
If you can read this it was sent using my GT-P7510.

Are you using another cable? One that isn't Samsung?

I use the original cable. And, i would have posted in the thread but i don't have enough posts to post in the developer part of the board.

If I get a chance to get to my PC today I'll link to this post for you so the users there will see this and hopefully give you a quick and easy fix or answer.

I just kinda realized this used to happen when I had wet hands/sweaty hands on the Galaxy S, when I typed via the keyboard, it tends to read another part of the keyboard and presses another key based on last area touched.
Do you ever get grounded when touching the metal parts like volume keys? Ever tried USB charging and seeing if it happens there too?

Will try to charge my tab on the PC next time. Ill keep you up to date.

Bluetooth Keyboard/HID Device Latency

Can anybody confirm that they are having the same problem on their Galaxy Tab 7.7? If I use a bluetooth keyboard, it pairs and sets up and works fine, but if I don't press any keys for exactly one second, then press a key, there is a latency of about 0.5 seconds for the key press to register. I don't have this problem on my Galaxy Nexus, and I can recreate it with both a bluetooth keyboard and a wiimote connected through bluez ime. However, if I connect the wiimote as a non-hid device through wiimote controller, there is no latency after however many seconds. I believe there must be some latency setting to save power, but am not sure. Can anyone advise? I play games with an external keyboard, and it really messes me up. Thanks!
I haven't timed it, but I haven't noticed any latency or issue with my Bluetooth keyboard.

Could you perhaps let me know which model you have (3g or wifi) and which firmware you're running? If you could just test to make sure that the keyboard responds instantly after not being used for about five seconds, I'll flash mine to whatever you have and be forever grateful.
i am also experiencing this, but i am using like a $12 bluetooth keyboard so i just shrug it off since im not bothered by the lag anyway

Good to know that I'm not alone. Hopefully ICS will fix it. I know my galaxy nexus doesn't have this problem so I can only keep my fingers crossed. It wouldn't bother me for text input, but it bothers me hugely when trying to play games, so we'll see if anyone knows how to fix this. Thanks a lot for confirming though.
I'm using a Logitech bluetooth mouse V470 and it's really fast, yes there's a little lag when I stop using it for a few minutes but it's so little that doesn't really bother me. I cant tell you right now about a keyboard, I'll test one tomorrow with and without the mouse and we'll see what happens... I'll get back to you...
Thanks. That's the only real problem with mine right now. I've tried only the Hong Kong firmware, but I don't see there being a difference in the other ones. I imagine that if it's possible to disassemble one of the APKs related to bluetooth and change a timeout value it will work, but I have no idea where to look for such a file.
I connected the bluetooth mouse and a keyboard and they both work great simultaneously, and yes, there's always a delay after you stop using then for a moment but doesn't really bother me...

I'm using a Hong Kong one, and also experience the lag after I stopped using it for awhile. This also affects my Phonejoy game controller at times unfortunately.
Really hope, ICS will fix this.

Same here, it bothers me, but seems it's some general bluetooth go to sleep or whatever issue, after not typing for a couple of seconds, the first keystrokes fail to register for a second or so.
I noticed identical behavior with the Samsung Note.
Glad I found this thread, because I couldn't find anything else anywhere with Google. There's a similar thread in the 7.0 Plus Accessories forum. I can confirm that I'm having the same issue, only with the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus. Same exact issue. I'm using both the iControlPad and a keyboard, and the issue manifests itself with both devices, so it's got to be the tablet.
I also noticed that, if a key is held down for too long (I think 3+ seconds), the corresponding action or letter will repeat for a second or two (very noticeable when playing platformer games). If that same key is held down for a shorter period (say, only 1, maybe 2 seconds), then the action or letter will cease repeating immediately after I let go of the key.
Submitted a request to Samsung to fix this, and you may want to do the same (not sure if it will help, but doesn't hurt to try).
Mobile gaming was one of the reasons I got this tablet, and games are nearly unplayable with this delay that is introduced. I'm using the same bluetooth devices with the Motorola Razr Maxx, and these delay issues are not present at all (in fact, the response with using a controller is near perfect). Hate to say it, but I will be forced to look to other tablets if this doesn't get resolved with the ICS update (and I won't get my hopes up).
I can confirm that with the vanilla ICS bluetooth implementation in the Galaxy Nexus, this problem isn't present. I actually sold my Tab 7.7 because of this problem, among other various small bugs, like programs randomly disappearing (of course it's rooted, and I can't say if this happens when not rooted).
Hopefully when ICS is released, if it does have the problem, there will be an AOKP or Cyanogenmod port which will resolve it. Sadly, I don't want to wait for that. Perhaps anyone with an SGS 2 can confirm if this problem is present in Gingerbread and in ICS, or only in gingerbread. Someone with a note could do the same.
Posted this in the 7.0 Plus thread as well. Called Samsung's support line after reporting this by email. I would normally think that this would lead nowhere, but their support line seems to lead to knowledgeable people who at least understood what I was saying (and this seems to be a very specific issue). The number is 1-800-726-7864.
I reported the issue, and I also mentioned the 7.7 tab and the Note. Not sure if that will lead anywhere, but it doesn't hurt for more people to report this.
Also asked about ICS... crickets of course
So my hope to c0nnect keyboard n mouse. Hdmi output and charging at the same time is gone.

[Q] When docked w/ lapdock thinks its hdmi only, goes into webtop, cant use touchpad

Hey guys, I did a search for my issue, but found no relevant solutions.
I am using a much older ROM, Gingerblur 3.1 with v 1.83 and I just bought a new lapdock. The funny thing is, all the instructions came in Spanish, but I don't think that would necessarily be the issue. The weird thing is when I open it with phone plugged in, it does not go into lapdock mode, but on the phone I get prompted to go into Webtop or multimedia mode. I go into Webtop mode and it looks like how the lapdock mode should look, however, I can not use the touchpad or a USB mouse that I plugged in. However, on the phone screen itself, it shows a mouse pad essentially, and option to go to keyboard, so it thinks its only plugged in via HDMI to a screen only. The funny thing is though, if I do not turn the phone screen on by pressing the power button, it says No Signal Input: HDMI, which implies that it knows a phone is connected via USB since that screen does not come up when the phone is plugged in. I am also not using a case so I know it is firmly plugged in with no obstructions. Someone else had the same issue with a different ROM in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1598132&page=2
Please help! Is this a ROM issue? I was planning to switch over to the NottachTrix4G ROM, but it seems the same issue may be occurring there. I think I still have 30 days to return it, but I would love to resolve the issue. Any thanks would be much appreciated.
I had this problem. You buy from onesaleaday? Sent mine to Motorola for repair. Defective USB connector. Thread is in accessories forum. Moto couldn't find serial number in their system, but they took care of me.
Probably your documentation is in Brazilian Portuguese.......not Spanish. Look same but not same.
It is not a ROM issue.

It is in Spanish for sure, I can read Spanish. I bought it on Amazon from some reseller who had only one in stock from Bakersfield CA, which is a 2 hour drive from me. Thought it was a good idea. Should I return it? Or can Motorolla help me out with a product I did not buy from them?
I really feel like the USB is not defective, or that it at least is detecting my USB connection since it prompts the message about NO HDMI cable in place, which cannot be achieved unless the phone is plugged in. Obviously you can't test with just the USB connection alone and no HDMI, but my IT spidey senses are tingling. Could you link me to the thread you were referring to? I was looking for it but I could not find it.

Mine was doing exact same thing. There is a known issue where connectors, especially USB in lapdock do not stick out far enough to make a good connection. I called Motorola, they arranged overnight shipping both ways, no problems. Had it back in a week fully functional.

Turns out mine starts with a serial number starting with a B, but all the localization is for Mexico according to the packaging. Gonna try to see whats up with a warranty.
Edit: My B serial number was in the system, and I have files a warranty replacement request, thanks so much for your help CaelanT!

Glad I could help.
As an added note for anyone else, the shipping is handled better if you have them set up the RMA over the phone, and do not set it up yourself online.
They actually told me this themselves when I called them. I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised at the customer service being as good as it was.

however, this solution actually resolved it for me, I should have trusted my IT sleuthing skills because I knew the USB connector was working since it was charging properly, let that be a lesson to anyone else searching for a solution, if your phone is charging while plugged in, the USB connector is working properly, this is probably related to the fact that I am using nottachtrix4g which I have seen mentioned before as an issue
I had posted previously that not charging was an indication of USB failure. None of the normal USB functions were working for me. My apologies if I sent you down the wrong road.

I sent mine to Motorola as well and got it back with a message that there was not a problem with the device. I was running stock Atrix when I first tested. Nottachtrix didn't work for me either.
I was under the assumption that the Lapdock was simply a HDMI monitor and USB Host. Have since installed CM10 (epinter) and still experiencing the same issue.
**Ninja Edit: Yes I'm a noob
I connect my lapdock and it works. After a few minutes the display still works but the keyboard/trackpad are unresponsive. Any ideas?
Just wanted to post up another suspected failure - i just received my atrix(Hebrew edition) lapdock from Ben's Outlet - no charging on the usb port with my bionic (dismantled the dock location to connect the wires before modifying the casing)
I'm guessing after all the reading in the forums I've done that the only option is to warranty claim with Motorola ?
I also noticed i have no serial sticker on the bottom(but do have the hologram and another model number sticker) - I'll have to check the box for the serial unless there's another way to get the serial number?
Thanks for posting up this discussion! Saved me hours of banging my head against a wall, i really wish the thing was working though...

WIFI Madness - Samsung Galaxy S III i9300 (International)

Hello everybody, this is my first post in XDA.
I'm in a dead end with my phone, and after checking the whole forum and of course googling for an answer I can't find, here I am.
I've got a Samsung S3 i9300 (Int) which was functioning perfectly well with Ultima ROM 10.1. Now I tried to move on to 11.0 and found out my WIFI stopped working. Actually, it's able to connect to a non secured network but is unable to cope with wpa2 for instance. For some reason, it tags every network as WPS and fails to connect every time.
Strangely, I tried with a couple of other ROMs (Omega 44.2, Slim, NeatROM) and I have the exact same problem.
But if I move back to CyanogenMod 10.1 or stock, it works perfectly.
Can anyone help me out here?
THANKS!!
I had this exact same problem and banged my head against the wall over it and ended using just wpa, when I get time I'm going to attack the problem again though!

Well yes, but having this amazing phone and having trouble to connect to WIFI on a bar or something... sounds way too un-cool for me!
I hope someone has a solution for this,.. or at least a hint!
Have you tried using custom kernels such as Perseus or Siyah.
The kernel includes the Wifi drivers but not the wpa_supplicant so it should !e easy to pinpoint what causes it.
Also a logcat would be nice.

I had a look at that post, and I've tried most of those without any luck, and the one I haven't tried like an extreme wipe, I'm not willing to. I know it's not flawless logic what I'm going to say, but I think that if it works with some ROMs, it can't be solved by wiping.

[Q] s2 showing battery charging without connecting charger

Hi phone s2 i9100g is showing charging without charger connected. no water damage. Is it a serious issue. Another issue is sometime my all audio/video appc faces struggle in running.(not running smoothly). Are both issues related. And what is the solution.
It's called "ghost charging" and it has been extensively discussed (and solved) many times. Search and you'll find those threads.

Yeah it happens. Happened to me a couple months back. Above poster is correct, there's a lot of threads on it. Most of them won't mention ghost charging though, so to tip you off..... you need to replace the USB flex board. However, I'm not sure of the procedure for an i9100G, something the above poster doesn't mention... I'm not too sure how many threads you'll find for the "G" variant. Long and the short of it, you need to replace the USB flex board. Up to you if you DIY or pay someone to do it.
As far as your phone not running smoothly goes, when did you last do a factory reset? Back up everything you need (via Kies, I assume you're not rooted). Messages, contacts (sync them to a google account), and anything else you can think of. Note you'll lose all your apps with a factory reset, but your photos & videos will be fine.

Thanks for reply. Actually I have changed 4-5 roms and getting this problem(charging+audio/video smoothness, even caller tune) in all. Now i flash stock via odin but no help. actually i have to press(little) phone down from screen after connecting charger for charging. I am thinking these two are related because may be faulty usb port makes some short circuit type thing which makes error in audio smoothness.
Either all sound related apps get struggle or all run smoothly in both speaker and headphone. i think my audio gets error that why video also face problem in running.

My apologies as well for assuming you weren't rooted (see the importance of telling the information when asking for help?).
I can't say if they're related, unfortunately I don't know much about the hardware layout of our phones. But the way to move forward is definitely to get the USB board fixed first. Then see what happens to the audio problem. If you don't have any luck with that, then post up and we'll see.
I faced the same issue in my xperia sl , but it was not so serious , just connect the charger again and remove ....

Ya sure. let I change usb port first and see what happens to audio issue. By the way thanks a lot for your kind reply.
I too had this issue. But a little meticulous cleaning of the USB port solved it. You could try that first, just to be sure.

[Q] Usb port misbehaving (faulty?), should I replace it?

Hi all.
I'll make it as short as possible:
My USB port is misbehaving.
Only charging is working at the moment, any connection to PC doen't work (with latest drivers).
ADB doesn't recognize the phone too, neither when on or in recovery.
Tried stock FW, latest stable CM and latest nigthly CM but same result.
I think this happened after going with the phone out to the snow and probably some water entered the usb port.
I really think it's a bad USBport and/or flex cable.
I have few questions:
1. I saw I can buy the connector only or the flex cable + connector. How can I know whether replacing only the connector will solve the problem?
How can I determine whether the problem is only in the connector or in the flex cable also or maybe even worse (motherboard or something)?
2. Does it matter where to buy the parts from? I don't live in the USA so i'll be ordering from ebay/dx probably.
3. Do you have any other tips/suggestions? Am I in the right direction at least?
Thanks a lot!
Hoping for your kind help :fingers-crossed:
Just buy the whole bit from a trusted seller.And first read the threads by duguet and keithharross about usb ports.
Then youll know whats what.

The thread is this one. I have a port problem myself, and it sounds like this is so common they should probably sticky it. I'm actually thinking of trying to send a bunch of "my usb/flex broke" links to the repair center to show them how often the issue comes up (but then again, they probably already know that :-/)
