Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi

does it happen instantly or just in general while running? TPs will shut off when they get hot to save the battery physically from damage.

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi

This is the most annoying issue with these phones..
Since GPS, WIFI, and DATA usage sucks the battery the most you need to have the phone on charge but then the phone doesn't charge because these activities heat the phone. ARRGGH.
I believe it was one of the cooks here, maybe calculin that has a registry hack the disables this "Safety feature" so that you can continue to charge the phone. When I find it I will post it.

the safety feature is obviously there for a reason, ya it sux, but id rather have that than heat causing damage to the phone, just turn off the GPS for a while and charge the phone, no biggie
