Hello guys, I have a mate 10 pro for a while now and I love this phone it's a very powerful phone with some cool features. One feature I've been using lately is wired projection, basically this feature allows me to cast my phone on any TV using an hdmi cable, but the problem I face with this feature is whenever I plug the cable the phone reverse charging and when I change that to any of other options it immediately goes back to reverse charging, and what makes this worse is the heat. Because my phone is constantly reversing energy the phone heats up a lot. Please if anyone knows how can I fix this problem please tell me how and thank you.

Hi All,
I was wondering if anyone had any insights in to this problem I have been having.
Briefly, I have the 4g lte verion on EE's new network. I purchased the official MHL/HDMI adapter which works fine and the video is outputed to my sammy 50inch tv fine. The issue I have is the battery drains while doing so. I belive this may to due to the phone outputting more than it is drawing from the power source. Any thoughts ?
I spoke with Samsung tech and they said a number of people have started to report this issue and they are currently testing/investigating. If this is indeed the case seems a pointless acessory as a long video would possibly drain the whole battery, Im yet to test the full drain time.
Secondly, with a 3rd party docking cradle with spare battery slot which purchased from amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/eLifeStore®-Samsung-Desktop-Charger-Docking/dp/B008PPRGFY) also does not charge phone properly. Even with the orignial charger in the ac port (or usb port) . The phone reports as charging but stays the same or decreases. Charged directly from the socket it is fine. Strange!
Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Ian
It's common. Mine did that too! I switched to my old S2 charger, problem solved

No idea man? A design fault maybe? All I know is that my phone took for f#*%ing ever to charge with the USB type wall charger. I pulled it out of the socket and plugged my other other one in that was sitting right next to it and it started charging? Checked a few minutes later and it had climbed considerably so I pulled the USB cable out of the new plug and kicked it under the bed where it now lays resting not to be used again LOL.
USB plug/cord works perfectly fine? So I use it on the computer. My laptop even charges the phone via the USB cable faster than the socket plug (which is usually the opposite - as I am sure we are all aware). So yeah I would say poor design or defective wall plug or both or something? Wasn't going to send my phone back because of it. 2second decision problem solved Samsung phone is great!
Im having exactly the same problem.
I have an s3 on orange and have the same mhl adapter conected to my tv.
I have tried the charger from my s3 which does says its charging when I connect my phone but only for about a minute so I also tried using the charger from my s2 and that just does exactly the same.
An easier way is to buy the official allshare dongle for your hdtv then you can stream anything from your phones screen direct to your tv and can have the phone on charge via pc or wall socket at the same time,
Hope this helps
i suggest you throw away your original charger (slow charge) and its usb cable (loose - actually caused the extsd to become damaged to the point i had to repartition) and buy yourself a cheap usb cable for data (£2) and a 3rd party charger (pref not a usb adapter one - £5) and all should be fine!
I still experienced a small battery drain while using the mhl adapter, however, i froze a few apps with titianuim (ones i know run all the time like utter and tasker, paragon ntfs, easy ums, directory bind etc), and put it on min brightness - works like a charm. I know its a effort freezing apps but does the trick with my phone... Since finding that out i actually keep paragon & easy ums frozen till i need them...
just a few thoughts for you....
Hi! Im new here and i need some help, (im using mobile) I got an Intex Pulse Tablet and works better but now the charger is not working so i managed to buy a new one, A cheap 5v Pin charger, it works normal until it doesnt work, i need the charger cable to pull,push twist just to charge it. (Sorry for Bad English) then i buy a new one, same product, until it charges slowly like 1% per every 20mins. I find it very hard and shutdown by itself everytime i plug my net stick,
So i replaced my charger into a usb port, but the problem now is its Very Bad Ghost Touch/Multi Touch even though i touch the outside part of the tablet (not the screen) and like Touch Everything even i pinch the camera lens. I Already experience this but not that much. ANYONE CAN HELP ME?
Hi All,
I recently purchased a Magnetic Charging cable for my Xperia ZU, but the moment I connect it through either Laptop or original sony charger, the phone re-boots. It does charge the phone, but at some particular orientation of magnetic side connection, phone resets.
Anyone else having same issue ? Any solution ?
Thanks

I've read it somewhere that charging the phone the upside down could brick the phone.. reset was the symptom. I have sony magnetic charger and it will not allow me to plug in the other side around. The most i get is the touch screen is not that sensitive after plugging the charger and it will refresh my current running app/game. Been using it ever since i got my device and so far no problem.

Thanks @wtfhax for your reply.
I think it was reverse connection which made phone reset. As I read in the links sent by you, magnetic charging cable is not a good solution then, since it can damage battery. I'll avoid charging with this cable now onwards and will stick with USB charging.
But, I think, this is a bad design from Sony. There should have been a protection in-built for reverse connection as well.
Coz the charging port are never meant for non genuine magnetic cable...
Just be careful if u still wanna use it by marking TOP on it...
Reverse polarity might cause the circuit to malfunction...
Cheer
hello
its supposed to do that m8 connect the magnetic chargers the wrong way round the the phone instantly resboots
to add..
Faced the same issue myself.
To add to this, ever since I have used the magnetic charging cable, my screen flickers - dims at times, phone doesnt respond and wat not. Thinking to reset factory or root it out.
Guys, would CYnaogenmod help?

Those problems occur during charging??
I have 1 magnetic charging cable that were bad and it tends to charge n no charge...
Better to use high quality or genuine 1 instead...
My magnetic charging cable pulled the whole port off the side of the phone.
My Sony battery case did the same.
I like the ultra but it is not built to last.

there is if you look at the contacts on your phone you'll see the contact on the right is more oval and the cheapo charger cables don't have the facility to detect the difference.
Hi guys, I have a problem with my Asus Z380KL tablet. Im want to use this tablet as a head unit in my car and I need to use OTG cable to make it work, also I need to have charging in the same time. I also want to use AutoMate app to control tablet, especially auto on/off while charging/not charging.
And now is the problem, I can easily achieve working external devices (usb dac, FM transmitter and pendrive) with charging in the same time, problem is when I cut off the power from charger tablet still thinks that is charging, of course it cant be cause there is no power source but still I can see charging icon and in settings showing that is still charging. It stop doing that when I unplug micro usb plug from tablet but obviously I cant do it all the time cause tablet will be build in dashboard.
Now, with normal charger, without OTG cable its working perfectly, when I cut off power it stops charging in the same time, also I tried couple OTG cables and on every single one is the same thing.
Any ideas guys how I can fix that? Im not sure if thats software of hardware problem.
Also device is not rooted and it has ASUS oem software with Android 6.0.1.
Thanks guys for your answers and your time! Cheers

Really nobody knows what could be a problem?
Hi, I buy my Phone a few days ago. Its a Perfect machine I dont have any issue but when I connect my smartphone to the Dock hdmi/type c adapter to use the easy projection works fine, but when I use the charger dont works increasing the battery, keeps discharging.
Suppose you are whatching a movie using the hdmi, you have lo battery, you decide to connect to charger while you still whatching that movie in the big screen. And not rise the battery, not works the charger. I try many chargers, many docks, adapters but doesnt work. Al so go to huawei tech support and they dont have any idea of this or how to solve it, they even know if this is normal. Its crazy.
Im using now a hub
satechi-slim-aluminum-type-c-multi-port-adapter
some one Who had the same problem?
Please help me, I want to charge my Phone while I am using my hdmi movies, working.
