phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

the battery charges fine when im doing other things on the phone. when i start up the wifi internet sharing the battery stops charging. im using livesearch for my gps and im getting the same problem.

im using caulikins rom (forgive me if i spelled that wrong)

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
 

it's cause the TP is a piece of crap

my old mogul could tether and use gps and still charge and stay charging without even getting hot as the TP

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

it happensafter about 10 mins of gps or tethering. i like the phone this is the only prob i have with it

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

heat related. open the keyboard and just rotate the screen.

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

just wave the phone? i think ima get somethin where i can mount it in front of the ac vent in the car

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.

Ucpro has the right idea,put that bicht in front of ac: prob solved. I do that and also keep a small fan handy at home when I need to tether,:mrgreen:

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

yea i just gotta get a little stand or somethin so i can keep it in front of the ac. that would b slick if culikan has a fix for it though as long as i dont have to reinstall my rom

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

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

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

yea thats true

Re: phone quits charging when using gps/wifi
 

You are only allowed to use the WIFI, or GPS in the winter with the windows rolled Down, LOL.

nueBattery2 v1.1, Build 105

by no2chem 1. September 2009 06:33 http://www.nuerom.com/BlogEngine/ima...-1.1_thumb.pngNew version of nueBattery2 available, main improvements are temperature settings in human readable temperatures, and an “Allow no battery on AC” setting. Don’t get too excited though, as you’ll need a kernel hack in order for this setting to work properly.

As I’m a bit too lazy (busy) to put up a page, you’ll have to resort to downloading the new version on this page. Updated version of nuePower-CPL with proper temperature reading coming in a bit as well…

I used TomTom on my TP driving from Upper Ohio to Orlando Florida.... Mine would stop charging when it was full then resume charging shortly later on it's own... The phone never died and that was an 18hr drive
