Battery charge? - HTC Amaze 4G

Does this charge when the phone is turned off or only on? Currently running the leaked ics, s-off and rooted.
It doesn't seem to be taking a charge when turned off and plugged in bit the yellow light is on. Suggestions?

Yes it charges, just like other smart phones. If by any chance it doesn't increase in a reasonable amount of time, You should do a warranty claim my friend.
Over 10000!!! You bet I am.

I would but I bought it from a cell phone store as a pre owned phone
Weird thing is I haven't had battery issues until yesterday. It's been holding a charge and charging just fine. I turned it off to charge ( trying to cycle by fully discharging ) but it only charged 1% after 30 minutes when phone off. But takes a much faster charge when turned on.
I'm confused LOL.

Nice sig Btw.. But I wouldn't worry too much. It's charging fine while on so off should be fine. Try it longer. No custom recovery????
Over 10000!!! You bet I am.

No custom recovery.
Going to try a new ROM tomorrow and see what happens. I'll letyou know. Thanks for the assist.
Yeah I thought the Sig would give folks a laugh

The charging while powered off has been addressed many times...over and over....it is a recovery problem. You either need 4EXT, which I highly recommend, or one of xboarders CWM with that fix in it.
Don't quote me on this...

He doesn't have a custom recovery though. Just stock, and that makes it unique.
Edit: but you are rooted, so did you flash a custom recovery, then flash a stock one after?

No. I'm rooted running 4EXT recovery. But before 4EXT came out, xboarder had a few CWM recoveries with the charging while off fix. If you can't find it on this forum then you need to do some google searching.

@double the edited question wasn't for you.
Sorry op, did you flash another recovery at any point and time because that would be the problem. If it is on stock recovery that would make it a different problem.

[Q] Flashing ROMs

So I got the 3500 mAh battery for my eris and have it pretty much perfectly conditioned and have never flashed without having the battery at 100% because I have heard it can mess with the battery stats or something like that if you flash while not on 100%, but I still have my old battery, could I pop that in, while its not on 100%, flash the rom, and then switch to the new battery. Or would that mess with the phone?
Are you being serious? Btw, this is not development related, it belongs in q&a.

i've flashed with battery as low as 35% (but i don't recommend... just to cma).
in any case... flash it however you want i think the "official" answer is 85% is what verizon recommends before doing an OTA.
in any case... you're good to go!
You shouldn't dis on someone's intelligence and at the same time put a question mark at the end of a statement.

You shouldn't be a douchebag to people less knowledgeable about things like this. But thank you very much Tenzo for not being a douchebag and giving me a good answer
Sorry if I came off "douchebaggy," it just looked like a question that if it were important it would've been asked a lot more. I just never worried about that before and it kinda threw me off. Again, sorry bro!
Sent from my ERIS using XDA App
Yeah i was just worried about getting my 3500 battery out of conditioning or anything like that, because I don't have the time to condition it. If that makes sense lol, anyways all good now sorry for posting in the wrong section.

Anyone having battery problem with xBoarder's BulletProof 2.4.0?

It's draining my phone like hell......it was fine in 2.3.1.
I'm experienced user and I know I dont have bluetooth, wifi, data, or anything like that on. No backgroup stuff either.
It's like 1% for 5 min.

Because it's the general section for the Amaze, and this is where this type of question belongs.
To the OP did you wipe data, cache & davlik before flashing? Also what kernel are you using?

"Battery problem with xboarder's bulletproof" cannot be anymore specific but yeah lets open new threads and become famous to the op, might be smarter asking where bulletproof belongs, that way you might get more feedback from bulletproof's users. As it regards ur concern, just deactivate automatic sync of social networks and ur battery life will be back to normal. Nothing to do with kernels
before this turns into a flame war...not everyone is able to post in the development section especially if they are new...the question belongs here since we do not have a Q/A section.
Let's get back to the topic. to the OP: can you be more specific about what is going on with your battery? 1 percent when screen is off or screen is on???
You could recalibrate your battery. Charge to 100 then go to recovery and wipe the battery stay, then unplug and drain the battery completely. After another full charge, battery life should improve.

I've noticed a little extra drain myself, but then again i haven't charged the device to 100% yet since flashing... Haven't been concerned about though.
Overall still a wonderful rom, thank you xboarder

I would like to followup... Although i have not been using my phone, since my last post here i only lost 2%... That's not bad
Sent from my GT-P7510 using Tapatalk
The draining is from that the power manager can't step down the cpu. There is a process that is interfering with the power manager.
I have not had such problems. My battery lasts around 14-16 hours with normal to heavy use. That is with wifi on all the time, calls, some games, and lots of trolling around the Internet. Did you flash the kernel that is included in the zip file? And if so are you over clocked? Like someone else already said, calibrate your battery. There is an app for it in the market that make it idiot proof.
Just get the kernel from an older version and system tuner under clock it. Or try another rom fourth bar ics theme been good for me

[Q] Can't enable NFC

I just received 2 batteries for the I-777 that I bought on eBay. However, they do not have NFC. For the hell of it, I double checked and tried turning on NFC in the settings and it said "error occurred". So I'm like yeah okay, figures. So I pop in the original battery (NFC capable) I was using and tried turning it on, and it was still not working. I'm on ICScrewed 2.1 with Siyah's last up-to-date GB kernel. Re-flashing didn't work. Help?
Stuff I've tried:
Wiping/Re-flashing
Back to stock, re-rooting, reflashing (was sure this would have fixed it...)

Did you try a wipe before reflashing?
Yes, I always wipe before flashing.
Maybe a ROM that isnt outdated, and not supported anymore.

I've been on ICScrewed 2.1 for a while, and the NFC always worked. The problem barely started when I put in a non-NFC capable battery.
Have you tried flashing anything else to see if the issue remained on other roms?

Again, troll some more.
Labeling people as "trolls" won't get you help around here. Especially when they are the guys with most of the answers!
Keep searching, Google, xda forums, everywhere. Sometimes the answers are in obscure places. It's a pain in the ass, especially xda's search function, but it's worth the time. You may or may not find your solution but learn something helpful in the process. Right now I've screwed up supercharging my phone... Now im frantically looking for ways to fix without flashing. Butt im not going to ask for help until I know I have searched my ass off.

Keep kissing ass to your friends. Phalanx doesn't help. Look at his answer. Absolutely nothing to do with the OP. Instead, he's insulting me by saying I haven't searched, when I have. Not to mention, he does that in every thread I made. I'm pretty sure such behavior is trolling.
Anyway, like I said. I did search. All people have said is: pull battery out and put it back in, reflash (wiping of course too), and going back to complete stock and re-rooting and flashing. None of those have worked. See, you people assume I haven't searched, but I have...
Apparently, there was a flashable zip to fix this, but it was for a different phone when I was looking on Google.
All I can say is include everything you've tried in the OP. If you come across anything, make an update in the thread or an edit to the post, whichever is easier for you.
It took 2 people asking a question to get that you had tried two other possible fixes and they failed. Do you go to the doctor and tell him your head hurts but leave out the part where you damn near knocked yourself out working under the sink? No, you tell him everything you can think if that may have caused the issue in the first place.
No trolling, no judgment and for damn sure no kissing ass (see the thread where I pissed of Shoman). Just a normal guy trying to help ya out a bit.

Geez guys lol. Simplicity . My post wasn't aimed at u. However looking at it now i can see how u could take it that way. I was just making a general statement about a lot of the people that don't search for their answers . I apologize if u took it the wrong way. Good luck all, happy flashing.

pull out USB charge causes nexus 10 to power down!!??

Hello guys,
This is bizarre.
I had thought I was perhaps somehow pressing the power button when pulling out the micro USB after charging... but I have checked, and the tablet has this bug where if it has been charged overnight and I pull out the microUSB cable, the tablet WILL power down completely!
Anyone else have this?
BTW xda search is down, so I cannot search to see if this has been written about.
Cheers,
Mark.

I disagree. There should be different threads for different issues.
This makes it a lot easier for people to search and find relevant information
Nothing is worse than a thread which is entitled "10 problems".

I'm having the same shutdown issue. I really don't want to return the unit, so I just bought one of those POGO chargers in hopes that will be a good workaround. Haven't received it yet.
I'm returning mine... It's good feedback for Samsung.

Bad flash during root, how can I fix it...?

I just got an ATT SIII and I attempted to root it with Odin. The progress bar got to about 25% then failed, now I can't boot my phone into the OS. I followed every guide I could find to fix this but every flash fails at ~25%. I can get into download mode, so I should be able to correct this, right? What should I be doing?
edit:
Ok, I found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1727443
I followed the steps, Odin passed, and when I boot I see the Galaxy S III splash screen, then the screen goes blank and the led stays solid blue. I can still get to download mode.
First of all get to the AT&T s3 forum this is for the i9300 only flashing anything here will brick your phone.

"you're" would be the correct grammar
nah man, I certainly don't want to be a mod. I am just surprised by people's thinking. Like "hey, here's the Q&A help and troubleshooting forum, should ask ask a question there? naah, imma just post in general". It's not even funny.
And I am perfectly fine if you don't like my posts, I don't care about that.
@OP: definitely it is (as mentioned before) Q&A thread, first.
Secondly, I would like to pass my personal congratulations to you, as you tried to flash the firmware form another phone and you have confirmed that it would brick it.
Last but not least: be careful and do not apply your way of life while refuelling your car, as diesel into petrol or vice versa would have more severe consequences.
