disables the Charging Light,,,
When I have my hero in its cradle at night, the light indicating that it is charging, is really bugging me..
I could always put some tape over it, but knowing how good you lot are, i wondered if someone knows of an app, or any dev who would take the challenge of creating a toggle for it ???
Thanks
ian

Hi!!! Max!
Dude, what's up with the music in the background? Haha.

Remove the battery, open odin and hold vol up and down and power at the same time and plug in the usb cable while still holding the buttons. Works on the fascinate (vzw galaxy s variant) hope it helps.

Flawed idea.
The whole general Q&A section is a canvas where each person can post his query in a new thread. Then why club them all into one single thread? So that they are segregated and banned from posting elsewhere?
I remember a guy who tried similar ideas on an entire community. It was called "Concentration Camps"...
Don't you agree th idea is flawed? Mods & admins may consider closing this thread....

The idea is not clubbing all together.... Idea is to help... Intent is to cut down on the repeated ( Same question) new threads!!
And General section is not only meant to create threads!! If you get!!! :silly:
The search option is useless. What you could do is make something like a contents or an index in the first post. Update this with the solutions to problems that are solved in this thread.

The only chance this has of working is to create an index on the first page and keep it up to date and even then you will still get noobs posting the same questions in new threads because:
1) they do not search the forum first or even read the sticky posts and
2) even when they do, they not read the existing posts thoroughly enough to find the answer.
My point is... Lets try! Not only me.. pm your ideas I will add them to the OP with your name.. it might take a bit but... No wrong in trying.

Let me ask first question
My battery percentage never reaches above 56% no matter how long I charge..when plugged if I reboot.. that reaches 81 percent... I haven't seen 100% in last 10 days.
Earlier: I was asked to discharge it completely , take the battery out and completely charge. This worked for once.. I tried again didn't work!
Any solutions?

Try and reset your battery stats in recovery and then give your phone a few days of use where you run the battery down and fully charge up (overnight, for example).
I've done this myself before, especially when changing ROMs, like from ICS to JB.

Could really help... Did that, too. But I don't remember anymore if it was that what solved it for me. I guess most importantly, let it completely drain and then try to charge it with AC adapter until it's full. If it doesn't go up to 100%, wipe stats and do it again.
Thread cleaned, corrective action taken.
If you are upset about someone's comment, report it and leave the thread, let us moderators handle things.
Getting into a pissing match is pointless and WILL get you in trouble, especially when you level insults at eachother.
Stay on topic or leave.
Final warning.

hmm... that's weird. 2 other options: Maybe it's your battery. Do you have access to a spare one for testing? OR Your USB-port is screwed. That was may problem, too. I had to push and hold the plug towards the display that it charged correctly...
Wiping battery stats won't do anything, it is reset every time you gully charge the phone.
Will edit this post in a few minutes with a link to a post on G+. I hate googling on my phone to find the links I'm looking for...

*edit*
This file [batterystats.bin] is used to maintain, across reboots, low-level data about the kinds of operations the device and your apps are doing between battery changes. That is, it is solely used to compute the blame for battery usage shown in the "Battery Use" UI in settings. That is, it has deeply significant things like "app X held a wake lock for 2 minutes" and "the screen was on at 60% brightness for 10 minutes."
It has no impact on the current battery level shown to you. It has no impact on your battery life.

Why do you open a new thread? You asked this question two days ago in another one. You got answers there - follow them or ignore them, up to you. But no need to ask again when you don't want to follow helping members.

Hello everybody. You're my last hope!
Here's my situation: I bought a second hand Note a year back, and it's suddenly done a hard brick on me. So hard my computer can't even see it when I use the USB data cable.
I'd rooted it with CWM, flashed a custom JB ROM, and had been using Link2SD to shift some non-essential apps to a secondary partition and free up some system space. Although all the above came with their hiccups, I'd been using the phone without a hitch for about a week when "it" happened.
Today I pick it up and it has the "Galaxy Note N7000" welcome screen, which disappears when I hold down the power button. After that, nothing. Nothing from the power button, nothing from the power button+menu button+volume up. Nothing when I replace the battery with my fully charged spare. Nothing when I plug it in to charge, nothing when I connect it to the PC. No warning, nothing. Out of the blue, just like that.
After a bit of online rummaging I think I need a JTAG fix, something like "Samsung Galaxy Note - JTAG Brick Repair Service (Debricking/Unbrick/Brick FIX)" by MobileTechVideos on Youtube (I'd paste a link, but this site). Problem is, I'm all the way out here in Turkey. What would you suggest?
Thank you in advance.
PS: I'm struck by how all this makes you appreciate the simpler things in life. Like your father-in-law's little old beat-up Nokia that never skipped a beat all these years and is now saving your life. Is it really so hard to make a phone that is guaranteed to boot no matter what?

When I plug my USB cable into the device, LITERALLY nothing happens. No sound, no vibration, nothing on the screen nothing. My computer doesn't know I've plugged anything in, not even on Device Manager.
Forget about connecting to the PC, can you enter download mode (Vol down, home and power)?

The link you listed is very reliable JTAG service and costs $50 US. I would use DHL to ship it.
If thats not an option, you can buy a replacement mainboard. I would use www.tvc-mall.com in Hong Kong.

Sorry for not reading more carefully, and for not realising the difference between recovery and download mode.
I've tried vol down and I'm still getting nothing. I tried it with my USB cable plugged into my PC, and once I got a notification that it tried and failed to find a device driver for the "Unknown device".
Yes and now u download the driver for it.

Firstly, my PC only saw the device ONCE. I haven't been able to get it to happen again. Secondly, even if I do download a "Samsung N7000 driver" or whatnot, it's no good if the PC can't see that I've plugged in an N7000. "Unknown device"???
Reports of my stupidity have been greatly exaggerated.
Some maturity please
Goodness you guys are in a real snark aren't you?
Look, the whole point of this forum is that I don't know something that you do. I ask the question, and anybody who's feeling helpful today tells me what I need to know.
But when somebody, as in my case, clearly isn't aware of, say, a separate download mode that is accessed by pressing the vol down key, all they get is sarcasm and snobbery. The person asking for help gets treated like an idiot, and this gets "thanked" for "putting the noob in his place". Everybody's so busy giving themselves an ego massage they forget to come up with any actual solutions.
I didn't come here for that.

Who started the sarcasm? The person who wanted help switched to arrogancy when a really helping member showed the correct way.
And: you install custom roms on your device without even trying to read and learn as a necessary preparation. But demanding help without listening.
As you said: we didn't come here for that too.
You might reconsider and start reading the standard tutorials here how to root etc. Most members did this. The sort of "Noob" and "so I do not need to read myself" are luckily rare.
OK calling a truce here

I'm sorry if that came across as arrogant. Not being aware of a vol down download mode, I thought it was the other person who hadn't bothered to read up, and that was my way of keeping it light instead of flaming the person. Turned out the person who hadn't read carefully enough was me, and I apologised for it, if you remember.
Actually, I have read the standard tutorials about how to root and followed the instructions very closely. I also am not the kind of person who says "I do not need to read myself", I merely misread, as I said about ten times already. I simply never needed the download mode while rooting my phone, and missed the distinction between download mode and recovery mode. Strange, I know, but there it is.
I am not demanding help without listening. What I am demanding is a little patience and politeness. Can you say that you have added anything to the conversation except sarcasm and put-downs?
my last addon to this not even funny thread:
if you read so many tutorials and following them so closely but missed download mode: maybe better stop flashing.

I am very thankful of the assistance given, and I have apologised whenever I have been at fault. But ThaiDai basically called me an idiot (hence the double quotes), and all I am saying is that snide insults are never, ever justified. Or are you saying they are, and I have no right to object?
Sorry for poisoning this thread...
You know what, I've had enough of this argument. More fool me for trying to talk down noob haters when all I wanted was a solution to my problem.
Thank you to Spydertracks for being so patient with me to start with, and sorry for not reading more carefully. Thank you to rangercaptain for the recommendation. If anybody else has anything to add I'd be very grateful.
