Hi,
I've recently bought a non-geniune MHL/HDMI adapter and wanted to try out. The problem is that there is no signal / nothing on the tv at all...
What I have tried:
- At first with CM10 derivate roms and so on -> not working
- obviously only working with stock roms -> installed WanamLite ICS and still nothing at all, even with real stock rom 2.3. (but rooted)
- tried with a non-geniune charger, the original charger (5V Power) and with original-USB-cable Charging.
The special thing is that when I plug in the phone & the charger there is no charging of the phone. Should the phone be charged even when there's no HDMI cable connected? If so, I guess the adapater is broken.
(the TV is Full-HD, yet a no name one)
Thanks very much in advance for your help.

I'd say this is a good guess.
Hi,
Thanks for your answer. It was indeed a broken adapter. Got a new one which is working

it's possible know what kind o cable you have take? thank you
Sure.
It's a "Maxxtro MHL-HDMI Converter". If you mean the cable, i use a no-name HDMI cable and the original charging adapater from Samsung.

You have link store for the europe? I'm italian
Bought it from this retail company, but the swiss one. The shipping is a bit overpriced, but it's fast and there's good customer support.

I bought an official Samsung-made one for 15e in Serbia, so I presume you can buy one even cheaper in Italy
Hi All,
I purchased two items for my XP Z1 last week:
a magnetic charging cable from dx-box:
http://dx-box.com/brand-new-magneti...dapter-for-sony-xperia-z1-xperia-z-ultra.html
and a dock from online361 via amazon.com
http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FNJ3BFE/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The cable (EC21) from dx-box came, looked genuine, and charges whether plugged into a wall charger or a computer usb port. Great.
The dock (DK31) came, looked genuine at first glance, plugged into compter usb port, and nothing happened. I opened it up and the cable inside seems generic. I say this because the cable that came from dx-box has a sony logo on the magnetic charging end. The cable in the DK31 that I received from online361 has no such logo. I plugged it into a wall charger, and it does charge. Only half as useful as the cable from dx-box though...
I'm posting here before giving the amazon seller a bad review because:
a) The xperiablog disassembly guide clearly shows the sony logo at the cable's end
http://www.xperiablog.net/2013/09/2...-be-hacked-to-use-the-magnetic-cable-instead/
and
http://www.xperiaguide.com/2013/10/...ging-dock-dk31-dk30-xperia-z1-xperia-z-ultra/
doesn't clearly show the logo. Is it possible that this variation exist amongst genuine sony docks? Or is there a chance that xperiaguide also received a generic cable in their dock, same as me? Post about DK30 disassembly on XDA also show the sony logo on the cable.
b) Eitherway it's very annoying that the cable I got from dx-box charges whether it is a wall usb plug or a computer usb plug, whereas the DK31 from online361 does NOT charge from a computer USB post. Wondering if anyone has had similar experience, ie not dock not charging from usb port?
Thanks in advance XDA
I've got a genuine DK31, just pulled it apart and there's no Sony logo on the cable.
Haven't tried it on the PC USB plug, I only ever charge it using mains power.
I thought the dock was indeed designed to work only with mains power...?
@charliechocolate Has Sony put up EC21 charging cable on their site officially under product list page ? If Not, then it's strange that you got genuine cable....If yes, then you are lucky
Well Dock ec21 cable doesn't charge via usb port.....only via wall charger...and has no logo on it...
Why you want to charge via usb port anyway, it takes too much times almost twice as compared to via wall charger... ( NO offence please )
Here is the Dock photo we got from MobileFun, it seems pretty genuine to me...
It seems Sony has messed up this thing, nothing like that you got fake product...talk to Sony care regarding this confirming this from them or post on Sony Mobile forum, so that any support staff can look at it.
hello
I have the orginal nexus 5 wall charger
http://i59.tinypic.com/34oscra.jpg
and one that I bought in Germany
http://i57.tinypic.com/14l6edv.jpg
the new one from Germany is 2.1 a
and the orginal one is 1.2 a and the orginal one is fastter I tied also with the orginal cable both of them..why is that?
thank you
Probably just something as simple as either exaggerated output specs on the German one, or poor build quality.
maybe the exaggerated output specs on the German one are fake?
It could be that the German one is not actually delivering its advertised output, or it could be that the German one is designed to power Apple devices. Essentially, Android chargers short the data pins so that there is no voltage across them. This tells the phone that its a wall charger and it can draw as much power as it needs. Chargers for Apple devices put a voltage across the data pins to tell the phone what the output of the charger is.
If you go to Settings -> Battery while it's charging on the German charger, does it say "Charging (AC)" or "Charging (USB)"?
it said charging usb..

That solves the mystery then. The German charger is designed using the Apple standard so the Nexus 5 thinks it is a laptop USB port instead of a charger. That means it will only draw 500mA (vs 1200mA from the stock charger). You could either buy a different charger or just get a charge-only adapter or cable to use with the charger (assuming the German charger has a removable cable).
http://www.amazon.com/PortaPow-Fast...AJOU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411398618&sr=8-1
http://www.amazon.com/PortaPow-Micr...TYUE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1411398695&sr=8-1
Make sure to buy the "Universal" version, not the Apple version. These items short the two data pins so that the cable will not work for transferring data but will always be seen as an AC adapter by the phone.
I tried also with the original cable that comes with the nexus and it suppose to be ok and it's not ... there is cable more the original one???

I thought I explained it in my last post but the issue is with the charger, not the cable. The cable and adapter I linked to will fix the incompatibility with the charger.
ok I understand now I will order it soon
Hi recently I bought 2 LG G3's (D855)
1 Black
1 White
The Black one is for my girlfriend, I received it with the original seal broken and replaced by another where as my white LG was not.
The black LG is displaying
"Charging slowly with charger/USB. Connect to a standard charger to charge faster"
I compared both of our chargers when they arrived and they both look identical.
I have tried another working charger and it still displays the same message.
The white LG is totally fine with charging.
Not had much chance to tinker around with it as of yet just wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue and solved it.
Thanks in advance.

If you're literally charging from a USB connected to a computer it actually outputs less power. However, if you're plugged into the wall this can be a problem. Have you tried the same exact outlet? Output can vary from outlet to outlet.

I am talking about plugged into the wall not charging via USB from computer, it displays the message as if it is connected to a computer and not the wall which is confusing and yes I've tried. I did a search on Google about this problem, it seemed a few people experienced this with LG G3's but could not find an answer. Its quite a bit problem as a full charge takes about 12 hours.

If you're rooted you can remove that message so you don't see it, but other than that I would contact whomever you purchased it from and tell them about it. Sorry for not having any other solutions.

My white one is rooted but I wasn't intending on rooting my girlfriends LG in case she bricks it lol..
I was maybe thinking its a software problem, I will try and update it or maybe flash it, see if the problem still occurs. Either way I'll update this post if I fix it so it can help others.
Thanks for your reply

I know that sometimes with my stock charger because it only outputs 1.1amps I get the slow charging message, it's probably just that the LG stock charger doesn't output enough for android to think it's charging properly (Usually around 1.2-1.5a output). You have to remember, even with it plugged in, the phone is still using power so the amount actually going to your battery isn't 1.1amps, in most cases it's somewhere around 400-600 milli-amps, so I'd say that's why you're getting the message. I know if I use my sister's Galaxy S5 wall charger that outputs 2.1 amps, even when in use the battery still gets 1.2 amps sent to it to charge, and I don't get the slow charging message, so I'd say you just need a higher-output charger (I don't know why LG thought 1.1 amps would be sufficient for a device with a QHD screen..)

Looks like LG are supplying the wrong charger's for some of there phone's
I just managed to try my White LG G3 Charger with the Black LG and the message has gone for now
The White Charger is 5V, 1.8A, Don't have the Black one with me at the moment but im guessing its the same as @iDefalt
Still strange how it does this with the black and not the white model both are D855's as my old Samsung charger works fine with my White LG but not with the Black model
Thanks for your guys help :good:

Yeah man, this is definitely weird
I have the same issue too.
I get the error message saying "charging slowly with charger/USB. Connect to a standard charger to charge faster."
I have the black LG-d855 32gb with 02/2015 manufacturing date. My charger outputs 5v 1.8amps (black charger). When I use my Asus 5v 1.3 amp charger (using the same stock lg cable) I get no issues at all and charges the phone fully in less than 2 hours. The stock LG charger wont fully charge my phone overnight (6 hours). I updated to lollipop but still I have the same issue.
Same problem, i have change the usbcable and now all charge good

i also experienced same problem with my LG G3 so now i am using samsung's 2 amp charger to charge my lg g3 :crying:
Make sure the usb cable that plugs into the power brick is completely seated.
I had same error and only just now noticed that the plug was only 90% of the way in.
Unplug the usb cable from the power brick and then plug it back in. Use more force than you believe to be necessary, be a macho man!
THe error will go away if the usb cable is all the way seated into the power brick, make sure to push it ALL THE WAY IN.
Try this once

Well for starters have you interchanged the chargers to see if the problem replicates itself on the other phone? Also do remember to interchange BOTH the sable and the power adapter. An adapter can be a problem , but as I found out with my OPPO, just the cable itself can be a problem too.
How it works is that pure data / sync cables have inherently lower charging current. Fast charge cables on the other hand have the data pins (3,4 I guess) shorted out . such fast charge cables have a higher charging current than the sync cables.
Try this
Strp-1. Interchange the whole charging setup between the phones
ie - Replace the black phone's Adapter+Cable (Both) with the White one's adapter+cable , and vice versa. See if you can replicate the same problem on the other phone. If it does , then go to Step 2
Step-2 This Step will tell you if the problem is with your adapter or the cable( it is very much possible) start with the original setup ie the one before step one.
So now try the interchange step separately for the Adapters and the cables.
Ie first just interchange the adapter and if the problem is replicated on the other phone, then the problem is with the adapter. If not , go back to the original setup and interchange just the cables, if you did not see the problem with the adapter , the problem is obviously with cable and this Step will confirm it. You should see the error now when you have interchanged the cables. Best of luck
I ordered mine from a store in the UK. Everything is great only that I use an adapter for the wall charger and it's bulky and uncomfortable. Also, there are some plugs in my home that aren't charging my phone for some reason. I figured I need an original charger, but I can't find one. We have different wall plugs in Europe.
I love the fast charging and I don't want to give that up.
My charger says: Model MSCN04UR
Input: 100/240V 50/60Hz 0.5A
Output: 5.0V ==- 3.0A
Any ideas on what I can order?
