Hello XDA friends,
I have two captivate phones I want re-purpose to use as wifi security cameras using IP Webcam I have them fully setup and working with the app, but they seem to overheat and shut down after an hour or so. I also have two Galaxy 2 Skyrocket phones that I have done the same thing with them. They had the same problem with overheating, but I found this post which led me to remove the battery and solder power cord directly to the battery terminals of the phone. My understanding is that the constant recharging of the battery and the power needed to run the phone is causing the overheating, so by removing the battery and eliminating the charging to the battery equals less heat. That has worked for about two months , still working. I tried this with the captivate phones but for a reason I don't know the phones won't boot up without the battery even with power directly to the battery terminals of the phone. I have removed the back of the phone but I am unable to see where I might connect directly to power the phone without the battery. I'm hoping there are are some users on XDA that might have the technical knowledge to help me either with the overheating or the direct power connection. I appreciate any help. Thank you.
