HTC Desire :: Charging Practice - Use till dead?


General :: Nexus 7 Not Charging And Now Completely Dead

Feb 15, 2014

My Nexus 7's (2013) battery was low so I decided to charge it. I plugged it in to a AC adapter and it showed that it was charging. The tablet's battery was decreasing! I decided to turn it off and charge it. I've been trying to fix the tablet for a while. It showed empty battery icon, LED light above the usb port was flickering 5 times. Then it showed no more sign of life. I've tried many things including holding power button for 1 minute, tried different chargers, plugged in a different outlet, used original charger. The tablet is still under warranty but I don't want to go through all the trouble to get a new one. My tablet is not rooted.

General :: Star N9500 Dead After Charging?

Jul 30, 2013

I bought one Star N9500 from aliexpress and after few hours, it had the most strange thing I faced with a mtk cellphones because I tested many different chip and models but this one after I try to charge it because the low battery, when I come back I found it like power off, so I tried to switch on and the big surprise cannot switch on anymore. I did many tests like charging the battery with external charger,pressing both buttons volume + and power or volum - and power.... but nothing can make it wake up. The screen is black and no signal of life.

When I plug the cellphone, here is the most strange thing, I can hear the sound like a new device found but just after 2 secons again the sound of windows when you unplug a device and again like the first sound when u plug it, mean like u insert a pendrive and u remove it every 2 or 3 seconds but of course, the cellphone all the time conected by cable and testing different usb ports.

HTC Desire : BBC Formula One Online Stream For Practice

Jun 15, 2010

I'm very tempted by the Desire and while this wouldn't perhaps be a deal breaker, it might be a deal maker.

I like my F1 and if I'm out & about I'd like to watch the various live sessions over the weekend via the BBC website.

Can anyone with a Desire confirm whether the live streams for practice, Quali and the race work please? It uses flash so I'm hopeful.

HTC Desire : When Drawing Unlock Screen - Big Lag Till Home Screen Comes Up

Nov 5, 2010

Ii haven't made any big changes to my Desire and all was working well. suddenly a couple of days ago i noticed that things slowed down significantly.
exmples: when drawing the unlock screen, there is a big lag till the home screen comes up huge lag in opening programmes or menus

so, the only app i recently installed was the BA (british airways) android app. could this have affected the whole phone?

what steps can i take to check what might be wrong?looking at the SPARE PARTS app, i can see that CPU usage shows a huge bar for "init".i don't know if this is a normal process? anyone got info on this? might have nothing to do with my phone lagging of course.

HTC Desire :: Dead Pixel And T-Mobile

Mar 31, 2010

My desire is fantastic, was delivered when they said it would be and all the staff I've dealt with have been fab. The only gutting thing was that my desire had a stuck red pixel in the middle of the screen that was visible on any white background like a web page or the dialer. It is small but it is annoying so I decided to phone up T-Mobile. Amazingly they have arranged for a swap to happen tomorrow. Can't fault them at all.

HTC Desire :: Is 1 Dead Pixel Acceptable?

May 29, 2010

My poor Desire appears to have 1 dead pixel. I can't see any others. Would you accept this? I am tempted to take it back and get a replacement, but I am worried that the replacement might have more? I have always been unlucky with dead pixels.

HTC Desire :: Bluetooth And WIFI Is Dead

Aug 18, 2010

I had an HTC Desire delivered yesterday, and I used the system update to install 2.2 Everything seemed to work perfectly for 24 hours, but this evening the device is coming up with "Error" when you try to connect to wifi, and it also refuses to switch on bluetooth at all. Does anyone know if this is a 2.2 issue (and therefore likely to be fixed in an update), or if this is a problem that has been around for a while and the phone is knackered? I have seen posts by people with similar issues which predate the 2.2 release, but it can be hard to tell if they were running the official software or not.I want to avoid installing anything that may invalidate the warranty.

HTC Desire : Camera Dead After Froyo Update

Aug 6, 2010

I updated to 2.2 OTA a few days ago and since then my camera doesn't work. When launched all I get is a black screen that sits there indefinitely. If I kill all running processes and try again the screen goes black and immediately returns to the home screen. I did notice that a few days ago it suddenly started working again out of nowhere, but the following morning it was dead again. I've tried a full factory reset but no joy.

Sep 24, 2010

Firstly I am new to android so please forgive any ignorance below. My Questions are; I really need a phone upgrade (iphone 3g being a proper drag!) and the HD looks great, but with 3.0 scheduled (from what I have read) to come out around xmas I am tempted to hold off till then. Can anyone shed light on when the next HTC uberphone would be expected to come out? I can probably wait till Xmas before upgrading, and maybe a little longer, but otherwise I'll go for the HD in October.

HTC Desire :: Charging Your Phone In Car

Jun 18, 2010

I have had my Desire for a few days now, and yesterday we decided to go out for a drive, so I thought I would use the Sat Nav to get us about (NDrive). The battery in the phone was about half charged. Was listening to music whilst using the sat nav, and when we arrived at our destination, the battery was still reading half charge - even though it had been charging for over an hour in the car.

HTC Desire :: Charging USB And AC Differences

May 7, 2010

If I use my HTC Desire for Google Navigation in the car, with the phone plugged into a USB power adaptor for the cigarette lighter socket with the cable that was supplied with the phone, the battery still runs down.A dialogue pops up when the battery is getting low saying words to the effect that the phone is using more power than is coming in via the charging cable.I notice that the phone distinguishes between being charged on AC and being charged by USB. In Settings->About Phone->Battery it says, "Charging (USB)" or "Charging (AC)". I believe that charging from a PC USB socket is limited to <500ma by the USB spec. I guess the phone knows that it can draw more current when connected to the AC charger.The supplied AC charger must have some way to tell the phone that it is connected. Perhaps it communicates with the phone via the USB data lines, or something simpler like the data lines being shorted together?The USB power adaptor I have in my car can source 1A. If I can work out how to convince the phone to switch to "Charging (AC)" mode then perhaps it can do Google Navigation and charge the battery at the same time?

HTC Desire :: Overheating While Phone On Charging

Jun 3, 2010

I have had my HTC Desire, so I have had it for too long, yesterday it was a hot day and I put my phone in charge whilst it was on with mobile internet on, and was on my bed just under the cover and I completely forgot about it, when i come back after around 7-8 hours the phone is extremely hot and I can smell the phone. I looked at the phone and the battery had only 2 percent charge left which is odd considering it had been in charge for around 7 hours and was very slow like sliding from home screen to home screen was painfully slow, once I left the phone to cool and gave it a charge to 100% I turned the phone back on to find the phone was and still is very slow, also by hot I mean a good 60 degrees hot. Do you think I have done any permanent damage to the phone and that it will never be fast again? Also have I damaged the battery? Can any of the phones get internals damaged by this? Anyone had any overheating issues or problems resulting from this?

HTC Desire :: Screen Not Get Autolock While Charging?

Aug 6, 2010

I have a car kit for my desire that has an FM transmitter so that I can listen to my music from my desire through my standard car radio and was just wondering if there is an easy way to make the screen not autolock while the phone is charging as it's not exactly safe having to unlock the phone to change the song. I know I could switch the autolock off in the settings but was just wondering if there was a way it would change the setting itself when its plugged into the charger.

HTC Desire :: No Ring Tone While Charging / Way To Fix?

Aug 22, 2010

I'm using my new HTC Desire and I have encountered a rather frustrating issue. I have tried searching everywhere but can't find anything that can help me yet. I have found that whenever the phone is charging, the phone is completely mute and will not ring. Likewise, any sms's will go unnoticed as no ring tones/ alerts sound. The phone still operates like normal while charging and will retrieve calls, it's just the phone stays completely silent

HTC Desire : SD Card Unavailable While Charging

May 14, 2010

whenever I connect the phone to any PC for charging (and yes I am selecting the Charge Only option ), the SD card becomes unavailable for the phone to use - e.g music playback stops etc. Is this just one of those 'features' I have to live with or am I missing something? Interestingly when I connect, even though I do select charge only, the PC still pops up with the usual Autorun options - I guess this is related but dont see how the PC should be able to recognise the card in charge mode?

General :: HTC Desire S Overheating While Charging?

Nov 24, 2011

I have a HTC desire S S-OFF rooted 3 days back. I flashed it with Endymion Rom 2.2 2 days back. I was charging my battery and when i saw it after a while it was at 50 degrees C and it was discharging though connected. after unplugging temperature reduced.

I calibrated my battery last night by fully charging it, the charged it again at off state the again when its on then wiped battery stats and charged again. the voltage is a little over 4.2V.

Now i had put it for charge and when i saw it was 85% charged and Temp was 40 degrees C and phone was idle all this while . at 85% it was 4220mV. i was using it while charging and temperature dropped to 38 and voltage reduced till 4214mV and again incresed to 4219mV by the time it was 87% charged. is it heating more when its idle? What is the solution? Is this normal?

HTC Desire :: Stopping Auto - Lock When Charging

Jun 11, 2010

I'm a new desire user and would like to know if there is a way (apps/setttings etc) to stop the phone from going to sleep and screen locking when it is on charge? I use it for listening to music in the car in a charging dock and it's a pain to have to unlock the screen and enter my password if I want to skip tracks. I have to have the password active because of the corporate email policy. Anyway of setting it so it doesn't turn off when on charge?
