Just got my Q - Nexus Q Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Now I wait because I don't have any way to control it lmao
Is there a way to turn off the Q with a remote besides just unplugging it?
I would love to start hacking it but I am still learning Android and don't want to phuck anything up.

Should go into sleep mode by it self

Power off trick

I was pressing random buttons on my phone when it suddenly turned off. I was pressing Power + Vol Down + Trackpad at the time when it turned off. I booted up the phone and reproduced the same results again.
Did I just discover this or does everyone know?
That's the easy way to turn off the phone.

Hey, I'm new to the site and relatively new to Android. I had a Nexus One for a while, got rid of it due to not having a decent way to sync music to the phone and got an i*hone. Had that for about a year and just got rid of it since I was tired of living in the walled garden and got an HTC Incredible.
Also, my phone just froze up on me and I used this trick to shut it down and then restart it. Way easier than having to pull the battery and then restart. Thanks for the tip!!

Welcome to the site! I'm sure that you'll love the Incredible much more than the iPhony
I didn't know that it worked during a freeze also. I guess I'll do that instead of a battery pull the next time I press the "freeze for 5 minutes" button in Dev Tools on accident.
Keep on holding it to boot into debugging mode

I've only done it a few times
It boots the phone into a mode where no apps besides system apps boot up, so u vs unistall any apps that prevent the phone from booting like set CPU if you overclock to high

Root nexus s without computer

Hey xda. I downgraded to 2.3.6 to upgrade ota ics not thinking about it getting rid of cwm. My phones unlocked but I don't have root and have no access to a computer. Is there a way to root via the phone itself? Thanks for any help!

I don't think so. I tried searching around for you but I couldn't find anything.

Deep Idle does NOT cause your phone to use less power when screen is off. It already goes into Deep Sleep for that. Deep Idle ONLY gives battery savings when using your phone with screen off, such as when playing music or using GPS.
Ya I couldn't find anything through search either, but I thought I'd ask to see. Thanks for looking!

ROM with no phone or 3g capabilities.

I was thinking today. Sadly the day will eventually come when I will get a new phone. I love my EVO and would probably want to keep it around after I move on. Would there be any point to creating a ROM that basically turns the phone into a mini WiFi tablet. Maybe removing the phone and 3g and 4g capabilities would make the phone quicker and last longer battery wise. I honestly don't know as I'm a noob. But it was just a thought. Maybe this could be accomplished by simply removing some system apks. Idk.

Airplane mode.

Hey man,
The fastest way to turn off the 3g connections is airplane mode, but for best rom to run if you are going to use it as a reader tablet thing lol I would either suggest cm7 or you might like this!

Wouldn't airplane mode kill WiFi too?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
Pretty sure if you turn on airplane mode first, then wifi on, it works. If I remember correctly.

Hmm. Never tried that. Thanks. So my idea IS pointless... LOL. Thought I had a good one there.

The Nexus 4 is power + volume down. Make sure the handset is not connected via USB at the time as mine refuses to enter recovering if it is.

Power on when USB power inserted?

Hey I recently installed nexus 7 in my car and hardwired the USB cable to Fuse box.So whenever i start my car,my tablet turn on and when i turn it off my tablet goes to sleep mode.If i don't drive car for a week , the tablet shuts off .So i have to open my dash again to power on.Which is pain to open .so is there a way to solve this problem ? Suppose when i turn on my car , will my nexus 7 turn on from an off mode ,instead of charging in background ?
You have asked this question 2 times in the last 2 weeks... The answer is still no. Do not start another thread asking about it. You are spamming.

There was 2 posts exactly like yours the day before you posted. I'm not surprised you missed. No one ever uses the search function. Also, pro tip, when you don't get an answer, you don't post the same stuff again. You bump the OP. And normally when you post about the same thing multiple times and no one answers, it normally means no.

Xposed framework and MoDaCo module. I'm think it has a setting for that. Check the module info before you bother installing Xposed. Requires root. Both available here at XDA.
Second possibly. Timur's kernel, fixed installation version. More info: http://mehrvarz.github.io/usb-host-mode-power-management-nexus7/ Requires root. Seems custom made for your issue.
Trouble is you could have found the kernel mentioned and described in the myriad of threads here on car installs if you simply searched. Perhaps that's why nobody bothered to answer you.

Usb-rom by Timur, is the best option for an in dash install. It was literally made for just that scenario. Designed for in dash installations, and provides all the power and host mode charging options you need specific to this kind of operation. A quick google of timur usb-rom will get you where you need to be.

X posed nor a kernel can enable what OP is asking for. It is in the bootloader. Since the bootloader is not open sources, it can't legally be done.
