[Q] Is it possible to add Offline Charging to a custom ROM?

Hello there!
I recently tried a custom ROM for my X8, I'm using MiniCM7, found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=964223
However, the description says Offline Charging is supported, but after I installed the ROM I noticed it didn't work.
So I started searching for a solution here in the forums, but I could only find one thread about stock firmware =/
Is there a way to add this feature in a custom ROM?
I tried to contact the thread author, but no sucess.
Thanks in advance!

When you connect the charger battery icon shows up. What's the problem?

The "problem" is that the phone ONLY charges if it's ON!
So, when I connect the charger it turns the phone auttomatically ON, if i turn it OFF it goes back on and so it goes.
The option that makes the phone charge while OFF is called Offline Charging, but it is not working, got it?

When I empty the battery, and phone turns off automaticly, it charges offline. Else it's turns back on. BTW I don't see the point why you must charge your phone offline. Just turn on Airplane mode!

Really? I thought offline charging is that when you turn off your phone, the battery would charge without being plugged in. When I reboot my phone, the battery percentage is always, like, 15% higher. I thought that was offline charging

1 - Charge to 100%
2 - Turn Off the Phone
3 - Go to Recovery Mode
4 - Wipe Battery Stats
5 - Use your phone to uncharge your battery completly
6 - Charge to 100%
And now check if that bug is still happening
If is still happening that, then... ask a friend for a X8 Battery only to see if is a bug or your battery damaged.

Well, it seems that the ROM was updated to 2.0.7 and now the Offline Charging feature is working.
Thanks for those who tried to help

MiniCM7 2.0.7 has offline charge and it working fine as I had a dead battery over a hour ago so I plug it in and 4get to turn it on I have just turned it on ten min from this post and to my eye after bootloader ect it was fully changed So MINICM7 2.0.7 HAS OFF-LINE CHANGE if you install it right that is

Today I went to a shop in town, I saw two person who do noise because that their phone (Xperia x8) does not charge, and second time it came to warranty, so it's something hardware.

maybe turning off ur x8 and charge will help.

Battery won't charge to 100%

Hi
I'm new and this is my first thread.
After I rooted my phone I have an issue with charging my battery.
When I started the phone after the root I had a 100% battery, after I was playing and using it I plugged it in when I was going sleep.
After the whole night my phone charged from around 12% to only 60%, and then after I was using and draining the battery nearly to minimum(around 5-7%) it and left it for a couple o hours and it charged to 59%. Sometimes it charges a bit more but the whole process is really slow comparing it to the stock rom charging(it was taking lik 3-5 hours from 0-100%).
I rooted my phone with ivendor's rom from this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1825260
I was using CWM 6.0.1.2.
I would like to ask for any solutions for my problem, for now I want to drain it to 0 and then leave it again charging for a couple of hour maybe a whole night.

It's a bug. Sometimes is occures and sometimes not.
You could flash castagnaIT kernel and try again.

Just installed the kernel.
1st thing I noticed is a performance increase.
I'll gonna post what's the situation of battery tomorrow.

Ok, After a whole night of charging my phone only got to 68%, then when I was charging it when it was turned off It charged to 85% and when I turned it on it stopped to charge even with the AC plugged in and the icon is showing that it's charging.
Any solutions ? Please help.

I get a similar issue. When on stock I was always getting 100 %. Then I flashed CM9 and I randomly get 100 % after all night recharge.
If you are not afraid of switching ROMs, try a different one and let us know if it solved the problem because as mrjraider said
It's a bug.

Ok.
I was charging it turned off. It charged to 100%. I'll gonna test it today one more time with charging it when the phone is switched on.
If it fails I'll gonna get back to my stock rom and test it and try again with a battery charge to 100%.

Also remember that the phone wont charge completly due to safety of your battery..
Most of the time it recharged to 98 percent

Yes I know but the indicator in the phone 'has that in mind' so it shows 100% but its really 98 i know. When I was analyzing that battery graph I saw that the battery is charging really long. If I'm reading it right it takes the same amount of time to charge it as to drain it when using it.
Screen is attached. I was charging it through the wall charger.
It's polish language
Any opinions ?

Make your battery empty 0% !
Try to turn on the phone after empty battery !

Just connect your charger without turn on you phone....

I think that the solution was USB debugging. When I turned it off the phone is normally charging full and works perfectly.

Hey everyone! we are all using a li-ion battery » when we unplug our device from cable it will turn automatocally to 99%... I'm sorry folks, i don't like this feeling neither never havimg 100%...

Ahh.... just turn it off. Charge it fully( 3hrs at max). Got to recovery and wipe battery stats. Then drain it completely, and then recharge it fully.again. Then it will most probably go till 100%

i'm not sure (one of my friend said its the cable issue),,.. i tried this,, let it drain until 0% , then recharge normally with charger , i got it work for sometime,,, then it happen again when i connect to the PC..

Drain your battery until it shutdown and charge your phone fully without turning on your device and goto CWM,advanced and wipe battery stat and rebbot your phone continue charging to 100%.
Or
Use universal charger for charge your battery
Or
It may be the problem from the current custom ROM so undo back to fresh eclair 2.1 or try other ROM
Or
Maybe the problem of the cable try another cable
Or
Buy a new battery
THERES SOO MUCH WAYS TO TROUBLESHOOTING!

[Q] Xperia V Urgent Help Please !

Hi Guys ..
Today My Xperia V Battery Run Out & Shut Down >> The Battery Get So Hot Before Turned Off & Have ZERO Charge
Now When Connect My Phone To Charge It >> Nothing Happen If Battery Is Inside It
But When I Remove Battery & Plug Charger >> The Led Light In Red
Any Ideas ?? Anyone Encountered That Before ??
Does My Phone Died ?? Or The Battery ?? Or Non ?!!
P.S >>> In Flashtool , I Tried To Connect The Phone When Battery Is REMOVED To See If I Can Get To Fastboot Or Flash Mode >> But No Blue Or Green Led Light ,, Does Flashtool Need Battery Inserted ????
Please Help

It's a battery damage I think... try to leave it charging for a few hours and see if you can turn it on. Use a proper sony cable and sony charger.

I have the same problem with my xperia tx, the led flash red and then disconnected even after 2 days of charging, pc companion and flashtool cant recognize my device.

I'm Afraid That My Phone Is Dead

My XV also experienced similar problem, caused by CM11 draining its battery to absolute zero. Apparently there's little difference in phone behavior between hardbrick and damaged battery. You might want to try a fresh battery pack, even though mine only needed 3 hours of charging and it's fully back on.

Just like @mizan132 said, I only charged it for 3 hours, then it turns back on (the SONY logo came up, then the battery charging indicator) My XV's behavior was very similar to a hardbricked one, it didn't detect flashmode nor fastboot, and attempting to turn it on by holding the power button only resulted red LED blinks. I thought that was it, my phone bricked, but I guess I was just lucky.
Hardbrick is usually caused by improper partitioning or motherboard damage... if the battery has something to do with it, most likely the damage is within the battery... but don't take my word for it

A fresh battery pack would do the trick as well if waiting 3 days or more for the battery to drain is to much for you. What if the device was bricked? Mine using stock jb firmware and rooted. My phone died out of sudden while i was online and it was connected to charger with 2% battery.

i suggest that you drain your battery or buy a new battery, charge it with wall charger and wait until green led flash. Next, boot your device, if it cant boot, plug it into pc, check whether pc companion or flashtool can detect it or not. If your device detected, you can flash stock firmware via both softwares. Give it a try mate, i am dealing the same problem over here

Can be a motherboard damage or battery issue... may be caused by overheating---this is a good enough reason to not use your phone while charging. Now don't take my words as fact, I've never used an X TX before.
