[Solved-ish] Usb charging and unplugging leaves notifications - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After unplugging my phone from its charger, the "usb connected" and "usb debugging connected" stay in the notifications. Is there anyway to fix this?
Currently I'm using cognition's rom, and when I first flashed it, this problem did not exist. The only program I installed that I can think would affect the notifications is launcher pro. Are there any known apps our anything that would cause this? And if you want/need more info, don't hesitate to ask.
Thanks for any and all help.

While I don't know what's causing this, I could tell you that my guess is that it is NOT Launcher Pro causing the issue. I run Launcher Pro, and haven't had this issue on Cognition or Perception.
If all else fails, maybe try a reflash?

I think I just figured it out, but it will take more testing.
It appears to exist when I boot my phone while plugged in. Just restarted with my phone unplugged, and the notification goes away as expected after plugging it in and unplugging again.
Interesting glitch though. I wonder if it is a glitch in the ROM, or Android itself. And if there is an easy fix for it. Time for some research.

Can someone with 2.2 froyo update perform this check for me..."stay awake" gone?

Can someone with 2.2 froyo update perform this check for me..."stay awake" gone?
So I installed the new froyo update last night and I see one thing missing I liked which was on the 2.1. It had a feature called "stay awake" under the application settings I believe. Well I go to charge my phone for the first time since installing 2.2 and the screen stays on and never sleeps unless I press the lock button. This is only with the usb/charger plugged in.
Can someone verify theres is the same way please? I am thinking they either designed it this way or there is was a problem with my install? Not a big issue, just something I wanted to get clarification on. Thanks!
They did remove Stay Awake from every froyo I've looked at.
It's very easy to add it back. You have to decompile the Settings.apk and remove one line from the .smali files.

I had the same exact problem when I did my upgrade. I was worried about burning the screen and went looking for some fixes for it. You can edit the Settings APK like the above reply mentions Here.
You can also download some widgets to toggle it.
However in playing with the phone I did a couple of reboots, once witht he USB plugged in, (not sure that makes a difference) and noticed that the phone timed out like normal while it was plugged in so I left it alone after that.
Thanks for the replies guys. New twist to the story today. I left my "samsung" OEM charger(one that came with my Cappy) at work Friday so I went to AT&T to buy one. They didn't have an OEM samsung charger but only the AT&T branded micro usb ones so I picked one of those up.
Went home to plug it in, and the screen sleeps/turns off like normal. So now I'm thinking it has something to do with the charger being used? Interesting...
Also still reading up on all the stickies here on XDA on how to modify this phone from rooting/etc so can't quite get into that yet! =/
OK, Similar problem, hopefully someone can help. My phone used to stay on when plugged in (even with 2.2). Convenient since I frequently use it for GPS (Google maps and Google navigator). I tried to use it for GPS the other day, and it kept turning off. Looked for the setting to stay on when plugged in, and noticed it was gone.
Apparently some software I was using changed a setting somewhere. Any EASY way to switch the feature on and off? Can someone recommend a widget or utility to do it?

Google Nexus One random restarts

Hi all,
I've been having some random reboots w/ my N1. I got the ATT version w/ 2.3.3 Gingerbread (Latest OTA) Also happened while running Froyo
Not rooted, all stock.
Carrier Cable & Wireless Panama City, Panama
I have already wiped the phone via the security menu and via the recovery boot and doesn't work
I have tried to recreate the problem but I haven't been able to isolate to a particular application or moment that could cause the problem.
Could the 3G data connection cause the problem? I also read about overheating but the problem is completely random.
I would appreciate any tips.
Rob
Suggest you try running a log cat to help identify the issue...

Any particular recommendations from the app market?

Long time since I've used one...
Download a few, and see which you like. Some let you filter results by significance, others display in different colors, etc. They'll all give you the same info...

Alright here is the log.
My guess is that this is like when Windows creates the minidumps when you get a BSOD. Let me know what to look for and again thanks for all the assistance.
I think I might have traced the problem to the charger. If use the phone for browsing, youtube, FB, IM, email etc etc. I can open all the apps and use them w/o the phone restarting but as soon as I plug in the wall charger or USB data cable it starts restarting. I have to remove the battery and then put it back and power on and let it charge until full. While charging I can use some apps but I try not to use the phone that much since it might restart.
The phone is the usual warm when is charging so I doubt is overheating
Anyone having this kind of problem?
Giving up
Well after a few months trying to figure out what is going on with my GN1, I decided to call it quits and call HTC to get a replacement.
My guess is that since the problem happens mostly when the phone is charging it could be a overheating problem. The same thing happens when you have a portable or desktop computer with overheating problems, it either starts rebooting, becomes really slow or shuts down.
Lets see if the replacement works better or I will have to sell the phone and maybe go back to iOS. :-/

[Q] Strange display issues with CM7 Nightlies and Glitch kernel

Hey guys, I have been looking around, and I don't think anyone else is having this issue, so I thought I would go ahead and start a topic about it.
Before reading these problems, keep in mind that everything on the phone works like it should normaly, but some of the text in the UI is wierd.
I was wondering if anyone running CM7 latest nightlies (post 2.3.5) and Glitch kernel are having a problem with the phone displaying things out of place. For example, when my phone is charging, the phone says "Charged" instead of what it's percentage is. When the phone's charge is less than 20%, it says that "No SIM card detected", rather than the suggestion to plug my phone in.
Instead of cell phone displaying in the contanct list, it shows the phone numbers as "work fax"
When plugged in to USB, it gives me the USB mode error instead of saying that it is plugged into USB.
Several buttons in the UI have mixed up text, and show things such as "%s%n" at times.
I believe this is not a theme chooser problem, as it persists through different themes.
Any suggestions? Anyone else have this problem? Like I said, it's not hindering phone performance, it is just a little annoying.
If your are using the latest nightly, the kernel was updated. And so glitches kernel will break any fixes and mostly likely mess up your phone. Best thing to do is either downgrade or use stock kernel
Alright, I think I might just go with the stock kernel; too bad BLNs arn't on there though...
However, I thought other people are running latest nightlies just fine on Glitch?
Reflash maybe?
I've reflashed a half dozen times, even did factory reset and all, but still the same thing.

USB Debugging Wont Stay Off

No matter what I try, I can't seem to get USB debugging to turn off. I am using the stock ROM, rooted with SuperSU installed.
If I disable USB debugging and disable developer options, it turns itself back on anyway as soon as I plug the cable in. Do I need to start from scratch to fix this? Google found lots of other people with the same problem on different phones and no fix =/

Mine seems to be intermittent but I don't recall it happening after rebooting the phone. I also haven't bothered rooting yet, but I did have this issue when I first plugged into my computer. Try reboot?

Mi A2 : Grayed USB options && Charging issues!!

Seen some more posts around about it but wanted to report what I'm contently dealing with.
Device is charging whenever it wants, sometimes one cable works then doesn't. My best bet for charging is my Xiami Laptop charger but even with that, I might have to plug the cable 2-3 times before accepting it! Well sometimes that doesn't work either, in that case, device has to be turned off then connect the cable and then almost 90% will start charging. Then I can turn it on and still charging...BUT... if I unplug and reconnect the cable it might not charge... yeah I know it sounds ****ed up but that's not all....!
ADB doesn't work cause computer don't recognize it. It might charge sometimes even without turning it off to do so, but still doesn't recognize it! (yeah drivers installed, believe me I have tried almost everything, I'm not new with androids)...
Finally...
File transfer and any other USB option is grayed... tried various things but haven't managed to make it work!
Well, I have read that many people encounter similar issues with this device after an update... don't know about that, when I got the phone it was like that! And it seems like no one knows what the actual problem is or how to fix it! Still, I would like to know your experience and what you think about it!
Thanks a lot for your time.

If you have warranty, just go and have your phone dealt with.
My reply sounds not-fun, but, there is a post from someone pointing out that sending his phone to service centre was his solution. It is reported by him that the issue has something to do with the motherboard.
same issue

The warranty is off! So it looks like I'm stuck with this ROM cause, its literally dangerous to try installing something else, in case it gets bricked there will be no way restoring that phone i guess!

Seems like there is no solution! But I bet that something can be possible, but who knows... we need to find out
I have the same problem, but the same thing that you say happened to me, I installed a rom and it gave an error and the cell phone died, it no longer connects in any way or does anything, just turn on in fastboot mode or in recovery mode, but I can't install anything, plus everything was formatted

Well you ****ed up... The whole thing is ****ed up... Seems like the only way to unbrick it is change the motherboard!!
Btw...there is a new update that im about to install... Who knows, maybe it will fix something....
It is not a hardware issue it is a kernel issue...upon boot a "chargeonlymode" file is created in sbin folder... I am a rookie at this but after a month of digging, 2 mia2's and 4 charger modules later, something is focing our phone into chargeonlymode. If i can find the solution I will post it
