Learned A Good Lesson Today

Powerful storm cells in Illinois knocked out the power today, and here I Sat with a dying battery and 2 uncharged batteries sitting in a drawer......
Needless to say, they're charging now.....
And I forgot how slow 3G is.....

So is the lesson to always have spare batteries charged for any given moment?

Oh yeah. Especially when the dish goes out and you need to use a streaming radio app (Tune-In Radio) to keep up with the situation

Alright, I was just checking.

In other news, Jamie1975's Giger ROM was very kind to my battery while surfing the Net on 3G.. only dropped 14% in an hour....

Storm? You can charge the phone using the Franklin method

Completely drain the battery, wait a few hours, and charge it fully while it is powered off.
Of not, try another battery / RMA

Likely just a glitch. If the phone works fine just chalk it up to that.

Yeah it's happened to me a couple of times over the years after a full battery cycle it should be fine.

Battery change

So I did a battery change and it went well but am having one issue. Not sure if it's because the battery is calibrating but sometimes when I'm using my phone, it just turns off. Like just off without any warning. And to turn it back on, and I have to hold the power button for about 30+ seconds. Anyone that changed their battery experience this. I got a brand new battery that was manufactured in the end of November last year compared to the original that was manufactured in the beginning of September.

Happened 3 times already. And when it dies, battery goes all the way down and as it sits still the beer meter goes up

USB Type-C to Standard-A cable to FAST CHARGING

Would I be setting myself up for failure if I joined these two together?? I forgot my cable at work and I'm so mad.. But I have the "USB Type-C to Standard-A cable" and a "Samsung fast adaptive charging brick"
Would this do any harm??
Thanks in advance!!

Anyone??
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk

I'm literally doing that right now and since the cable and phone don't support "fast charging" and the brick is adaptive you should be good. Mine isn't getting warm at all while charging.

Perfectly fine. I do that with my Quick Charge 2.0 battery pack a fair bit.
Just know that the phone won't say it's charging rapidly, since you'll be limited to 1.5A at most
