Motorola Droid Turbo – Disable QI charging popup overlay

I’ve had a Motorola Droid Turbo for almost a year now and one of my biggest complaints is that while wirelessly charging on a QI charger a overlay would popup every few seconds even if the screen was unlocked. Today I noticed a system app running called “Inductive Charger” so I thought maybe I can somehow mess with that app to disable the really irritating popup overlay.

Steps to disable overlay

  1. Goto Settings->Apps
  2. Swipe to the “All” tab
  3. Find the app called “Inductive Charger” and open it
  4. Click the “Disable” button

You’re done, your phone will still charge on a QI charger but you wont get that irritating popup.

PostgreSQL: Change column casting type to another type

Because there have been a few times that I have needed to adjust a column in PostgreSQL from one type of casting to another I am going to put it here so I can find it again and for anyone else that may be looking to do the same thing.

ALTER TABLE table_name ALTER COLUMN column_name TYPE INTEGER USING column_name::INTEGER
