My question is if there any way to make the ir [infra red] port bigger distance , the ir on tytn need to be so closer to the "item" for work , i want to control it from far away .
Any way?
bump ...
no one know?
I would like to test it. Which software are you using?
Thanks
Im not using anything , i request for somthing like that .
Unfortunatley the IR on the hermes is very low power, this is an issue that anyone who has tried Noviremote or any other IR control software has found out. As far as I know this is a limitation of the hardware in the device.
Cant to give him more power?
There has been talk of possible hardware mods in the past

Not sure that its actually ever been done though.
Thanks markafreeman, i'll give it a try.
Ok so the USB port doesnt charge or show up on the computer, it was working then i had to bend the cable to certain angles for it to work then it stopped working completely is it possible to fix this?
Connection to the mainboard has broken.
Solution: Needs soldering
Probably not doable so just use a main battery charger and then use Dropbox for file transfers.
Verify that it isn't just the cable. Most of my cables have suffered from my wife walking off with the phone still attached. Had to find a really cheap source locally, fast
[EDIT]Some people may suggest using a dental tool, toothpick or strong pin to attempt a repair. If you do this, be sure to remove the battery before, just to ensure you don't short the pins and ruin your phone.
what do you mean toothpick fix how does that work?
Anybody know anywhere that can fix this? or someone or someway? whats this fixed talked about above?

Remove battery, then with a toothpick(doesn't conduct electricity), carefully clean out the usb port of the phone. you'd be amazed at the stuff that can lurk in there, fluff, potatoes etc.
did you have to bend the cable at the phone end or the middle, if middle it is more likely to be your cable that is duff.
If you get a new cable make sure it is a data cable (4 wires), not a charging one (only 2 wires)

This depends where you are in the world, in the UK there is a small oufit in South Wales that repairs the USB port for about £20 (google is your friend) but elsewhere I have no idea
Hey everybody,
about 2 weeks ago I had to change the USB port on my nexus 4 because It wasn't charging. I went to a professional place and they replaced it. everything worked fine but I did notice a significant battery drain. poking around with several battery apps revealed that the culprit is "slimport wake lock". further digging around revealed that what probably happened is that during the replacement of the USB port, something now malfunctions with the slimport chip/connection and it stays constantly on.
I of course plan on taking the device to the laboratory and have the guy there take a look at it. unfortunately there's very little on the subject wherever i looked and I was wondering if any of you had something similar that can help me point the guy there. Also, I was wondering if there's any way to SHUT DOWN the slimport option (as I don't even use it) via the OS, developer options, some app or something else.
any help would be appreciated

Did u manage to solve this issue mate?

slimport is to connect to an external display via usb like MHL cable, i read that the usb hardware can be the reason, the guy replaced the usb port again in the links below.
make a cwm backup, and flash android again install betterbatterystats and see if the wakelock continues if so you should replace the usb port.
theory, the slimport pin is touching another?

Part is copy/faulty, see if they'll change it for another for you.
USB port was changed again, also did:
-Factory Reset
-updated to 4.4.3(and yesterday - 4.4.4)
-Battery change
No dice. I gave up and bought myself a Moto G.
Though, if anyone comes across a solution - do tell.
Seems to me like broken USB port or pinout not compatible. Possibly they did short-circuit on one circuit on PCB. What I can advise is go back to people who changed USB port and ask them to re-solder everything by using compatible parts.
Kind regards,
I have the solution guys... Though its hard to explain, its not very hard to accomplish.
I took my n4 for another try in a different lab. The technician from the start suspected it's not something in the charging port itself, so he asked me to leave the phone for him for a few days.
After 4 days of trying and learning, he managed to find that the problem is in the socket on the board itself is causing the problems, along with the charging port, in my case.
He replaced the port on the board itself and the problem is solved.
Eventually, I paid 40€ for this problem, not very high, beats the other option (buying a new phone)
Try it guys.

Hi all,
Since from 2 weeks , i am getting Pop up that my charging port is wet ,even port is dry and when i trying to charge not getting charge quickly and my BS2 adaptor doesn't work anymore after that issue and i have try to reset the mobile but same issue
So, i had searched issue in google and came to know many BS2 users facing the same issue on redit
Can anybody help in solving this issue?
will the issue solve if i try to downgrade to andriod 9?
I have the same issue, downgrading to android 9 seemed to have solved it but it came back after a couple of days, ended up upgrading to 10 again because it allows me to silence the notification, after the issue first appeared the included charger and cable stopped working for me and after using about 8 different cables i finally found one that allows me to fast charge using a different fast charger that came with my motorola phone. Hope you get to resolve the problem or stumble upon a permanent a solution.
Only solution for this problem is to physically change port on the phone. Go to nearest service center and change it. You can permanently damage your motherboard if you continue to use faulty charging port.

That would be true, if it's an actual hardware issue and not software... I receive this message too when I connect the Cooler Case. Then after connecting the phone to simply with it's cable to the charger, it disappears. So this is not a hardware but a software issue in Joy UI 11 probably.

Moisture detection control fuse needs to be physically damaged/blown in order to software "see" it as faulty and report water damage. So secondary board needs to be changed in order to fix this.
Too many Xiaomi devices comes to my service with this problem and there is no other "cure".

Okay but how come in my case it only happens if I attach my Cooler Case? It's sucks that I can't use this cooler though. :/ App won't install for some reason.

Probably something wrong with type-c connector on cooler. And as for app, are you sure it's needed? I guess when in "shark" mode other apps not needed for peripherals.

Well I noticed that when we try to download the old Shark Arsenal app, it already mentions that it has been built in function into Shark Space 3.0 which we currently have with the Joy UI 11 update, the FunCooler works without any problem. The Cooling case however don't. The Shark Space app does indeed have that section called as "Shark Cooleer" which is the app name too. Still it does not recognizes even though it's paired through Bluetooth. :/ I hope the recognition is not made by the Type-C port, cause btw that works too. I mean i can easily charge my phone through the cooler case's type-c port. And it's even fast charging so yea. I still think the Shark Cooler app would be needed to control the cooler. Or I bought a faulty device. :/ Still without the app I cannot test it so yea.
Hey guys i had a same problem wet surface but i already blower it and let it rest for a day still i cant charge my black shark 2 any tips or should i bring it to the nearest service center?
Not fully familiar with how all this works, hopefully I can post this here to ask for help, because I don't know where else to go but,,
I one day used a type-c to hdmi adapter, to connect to smart tv, and when I plugged it into my phone, it made a metallic *snap* and now my phone will no longer hold a cable of and kind in the port without falling out very easily, I only want to know how this happened, and if I can possibly fix it? Any help?

It can only be fixed by physically changing the port in service. Unfortunately there is no workaround for that kind of problem.
