MOBILE FAN 42 Report post Posted January 31, 2012 My wife gave me XT800 on my birthday. After using LG 3600 (3 years) and Karbonn (2 years), this feels like haven I faced a typical problem yesterday. Wasn't able to download any App from Android Market. But was able to solve the problem. Right now, I am facing a new problem. The phone charges with a micro usb charger. I used the original charger day before yesterday and it charged properly. Assuming that all micro usb chargers are same, I used LG's micro USB charger last night (because LG has long wire) and I checked that the phone was showing that it was being charged. In the morning I came to office and when checked the phone was not ON. It seems that the phone didnt charge last night. I tried Jawbone's micro USB by connecting it to my laptop to charge this mobile. But the display is not coming up. Right now, I dont have the original charger. Does this mean all the micro USB chargers not same ? Have I killed my phone's charging mechanism by exposing it to a wrong charger for long time ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Faulty chargers are primary reason for killing smartphone touchscreen. If you persist with such charger long enough, chances are brighter for your touchscreen RIP. However don't lose hope yet. Generally it will be all right once you plug the correct original charger. If you need an additional Micro USB charger, buy chargers like this Samsung Original at just 275 bucks >> http://www.flipkart....da-6ec93fed54c5 It works flawlessly with most phones.

MOBILE FAN 42 Report post Posted January 31, 2012 (edited) Thanks Rajanbhai. However, the charger is not faulty, I still use it to charge the LG and Blackberry phones without any problem. I hope the phone will start working in the evening. But the lesson I learnt is that all micro USB chargers are not same. Just checked the rating on LG charger : Output 5.6V 0.4A, The samsung charger for which you gave link is 0.7A. - I guess, higher ampere is required for Motorola too.

nitink 279 Report post Posted February 1, 2012 nice to hear that mobile fan. recently i was travelling and used a micromax charger to charge my xt800, it did charge but screen became unresponsive. I had never faced any issues with BB chargers thou. After removing the charger, the problem disappeared. From then on I decided never to try any other phones charger.

MOBILE FAN 42 Report post Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Finally rooted this device with http://www.addictive...al-androot-app/ cud not hv been easier. Now lets me root / unroot in one click now next task is to overclock it Tried to download UniversalAndroot-1.6.2-beta5 but TREND MICRO OfficeScan blocked it citing "Dangerous" Risk Level. Can anybody check it with virus scanner and find what is wrong with the file ? Should I still download it (on other machine where OfficeScan is not installed) and put it on my mobile ? Update: Searched about the AndroidOS_LOTOOR.C and variants detecte by TREND. And found that it steals the IMEI and IMSI numbers along with device type. Complete article is here Conclusion: the file is really infected with virus/malware. @Nitin, be careful. Let me know if anybody is having uninfected version of this file.

MOBILE FAN 42 Report post Posted February 5, 2012 ^^^^ Downloaded this file. But still TREND MICRO OfficeScan notifies of virus/malware. Should we expect that a program which roots kernel of an OS be detected as virus ? Then, it should be the expected behavior. I know that you are using it. As per the article, it doesnt hamper anything but steals your IMEI number etc and uploads it to some server. The only problem with this is that the IMEI number can be misused or c.l.o.n.x.d.

mdhussain 1 Report post Posted February 27, 2012 Nice lesson learned about usage of chargers other than the specified ones. Till now me too thought the same, if output (Volt / Amp) of any two chargers are same then they can be used in place of each other. But that is not true in all cases. Thanks!
