It seems either the charger end point / connector and/or the phone MHL port which you connect to charge are dirty clean them and try again.

I've tried to charge it with a different battery charger and tried to clean the phone's USB port blowing in it but nothing seemed to change. I really don't know why but today after 3 hours of problems my gs2 started behaving correctly...but when i reconnected the phone and then I unplugged it the bug reappeared... since the problem appeared for the first time I switched between different roms but always the same ... could it be still a software problem?

hi
i think it's a hardware problem. go to service to check the phone.

Have you droped your phone in water or left it in a mosit area? Maybe rust or something is causing that

Mmm not really, the problem appeared the first time one day i got up and i unplugged the phone as usual... the phone never dropped into the water or something like that..
Moreover if I don't plugin the phone it works normally... The problem seems to appear sporadically immediately after being connected to the battery charger...
Anyway my device is running a custom rom Samsung won't get it back

Galaxy s2 charging port problem

For the last week now when ever I charge the phone and unplug it it is still showing as charging do I just need to factory reset the phone or is the phone in need of repair cheers
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA Premium App
also when pulling battery and re inserting i get a yellow triangle with exclamation mark and a temp gage what does that mean ?
I have a similar problem.
No matter what charger I use, the phone randomly switches between charging and non-charging state.
Is this a problem with software or the port.
Just to clarify, I can hold the phone upside down, hanging from the charging cable, or wiggle the charger and it will continue to charge. The above error is just random. This leads me to believe it is a software or battery problem.
well after flashing back to o2 ke7 all is well again so must of been software related
Mine makes the plug and unplug sound randomly, sometimes it wakes me up at night and its not plugged in.

This happens to mine too. I'm on the stock unbranded firmware and haven't rooted our updated. This problem randomly appeared about a month ago.
I've just started seeing this problem now in the past few days.
When I unplug the charger, either the battery charging icon stays on, or the "Battery full, unplug charger" notification stays there.
The big problem is if I turn off the phone. After shutdown, the screen stays on showing two different icons (changes between them every few seconds). One icon is a battery half full or so, the other is an empty battery with a yellow triangle and a icon of a thermometer next to it.
When this happens, I can't turn on the phone. The only way I can turn on the phone when this happens is to plug in the charger, start up, then remove the charger again.
I'm on rooted KG2, XWKDD kernel. Bit worried about this, I'll try another ROM & kernel but I don't think it's software related?
It is discussed in this thread:

Cleaning USB port and in some times bending USB PCB downwards solves the problem.

Galaxy s2 car mode and charging port issue - resolved
HI,
I have been facing this issue with my galaxy s2.(When i have created samsung account and install Darky ROM 2 - XXKH3 ROM)
Issue:
1)Activation of CARD mode - automatically.
2)Charging automatically- though charger is not connected
3)Enabling the voice mode - automatically.
4)Battery draining problem.
5)auto handsfree speaker enabling
Solution:
There are two solution for the above problems:
1)Assume its not related to hardware (My case), i have wipe all the data(Using Darky Rom 2 tool), problem seems to occur even then.
I have updated the ROM to XXKG3_ODEXED. - that totally solved the problem.
I m using my S2 now for a week...no issue.
2)Assume its related to Hardware issue, (in some case's), you can clean the charging port by using thinner( nail polish remover - easy to get and cheap).
First u have to remove the battery, (preferably in direct sun light), use cotton to soak thinner, apply it on inner side of the port. keep the phone as it is for 20 minutes.(30 would be great).
Insert the battery, power on the phone.....problem solved.
I have tested it on 2 S2's, one with software problem and one with hardware issue.
Hope that will help....

Thanks! Had the same problem and cleaning the port and moving the contacts towards the display with a toothpick worked for me!

Hello, i had the similar error. I had to send the phone to Samsung. Let see what happens....
same problem here..100 % same issue...what to do...this is pathetic
Same problem here, just after a month of having the phone started the problems. The five problems darshangkolhe said, but also: auto power-on of the phone when I switch it off, and what it is more annoying, it is very difficult to get detected by Kies when it is plugged to the PC. Sometimes it only starts charging and others nothing, not even charging the phone.
I am very dissapointed with Samsung, I have paid 500€ for what was supposed to be one of the best phones, but just after a month of use it is going crazy!!
I am bringing it to the Samsung´s technical support this week.
Take a toothbrush and brush the Micro-USB port vigorously. Fixed.
Having the same problem, fixed doing the above. This phone was awesome. But it just looks so much like its a big rush job with all the bugs that were there. The screen coloring. Now the USB-port.
Meh.. wondering about that 5 phone..
Thanks prodygee, but I´ve already tried with a cotton bud with a bit of alcohol and no luck. I will try to get my phone fixed by the technical support or replaced.
I can not think about the 5 phone, I have spent 500€ not even 2 months ago, so for me another phone is not affordable.
I just want my Galaxy S2 to work as expected, it is not a low-cost mobile!
mine has been fine since, but today it has started doing it again so its booked in for repair at CPW,technician states he has all the parts so will do it while i wait

[Q] Phone Reboots When USB cable plugged-in

My new AT&T Galaxy S II rebooted after USB cable connection when Android running up and in powered off state (battery charging animation is flicking - seems like reboot loops on charging state).
The interesting point is: In Downloading mode all things running as regular and i'm able re-flash the phone using usb cable.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hmm this is a odd problem i dont recall hearing anything about this problem. You could try letting the battery sit for 10 minutes and then try again... I hope this problem gets fixed anyways you might want to call at&t or the company you got it from and look for a exchange.

Is this a third-party battery? If not, it's probably a loose battery connection.

Well you haven't exactly been around long, otherwise you'd know that this is a fairly common occurrence with third-party batteries. For example, it ALWAYS happens if you try to charge an I9100 battery (even an official one) in the I777. It's a basic safety check to prevent people from using the wrong battery in the 777.
Reboots - Stock rom problem
Hi, i bougth a new samsung S2 777, when start to reboot i try to change the USB port, nothing. Clear wipe reset, nothing...
THE SOLUTION IS THE STOCK ROM (i dont know why, 4.0.2). I install a custom ROM (cyanogemon 10.1) and sucess, it start to work again.
Try it its free... regards

phone is charging REALLY SLOW

I plugged in my phone last night and made sure it was charging, so i wake up this morning and i unplug it and it was at 20%?!? So i plugged it in rougly an hour ago and it only went up 20%, could it be that i left the desk clock thing on all night it just used more than it could keep up with and my battery is just super dead? I have also used different chargers and nothing worked.
It never goes past twenty? If that's the case, i'm thinking it may be a battery issue. If you call Samsung and tell them the problem, you should be able to get another one for free.

If yes do what he said ^ and call [email protected] and tell them. They will most likely send u a new battery.

"Since God created man, and man created the Galaxy Note, the Galaxy Note are like a gift from God, Randal!"
Verify how much current the phone is drawing (CurrentWidget from app store or a shell script). Even with the factory charger I have seend where the phone will draw less than 400mA (which is less than from a USB port on a computer) due to the cable being used - I threw out that cable. The "Battery Info" showed AC but the phone was only drawing 389mA.
Mine does 1% every 2 minutes with stock charger.

its drawing 6130, but the phone is back to charging normally now, idk what it was but it was strange needless to say...
Had the same problem
I had the same problem of super slow charging a few days ago.
Fixed it by rebooting into recovery --> advanced --> wipe battery stats --> then reboot. Phone then charged as normal.
In case anyone has this trouble down the road...
For CurrentWidget you'll need to set the operation type to divide (/) and the operation value to 10. That will show you the correct charging current.

Try charging phone while it turned off. If it is the same it might be battery problem. And use stock wall charger with stock usb cable. Note draws 1A so generic microusb charger takes twice more time I guess.

[PROB] Charging issue while phone is connected to charger

Hi guys, I am facing a problem regarding charging. Sometimes when I connect my phone to charger, it not used to charge up my phone. The phone itself shows that its being charged but the charge starts to reduce while charging and then turns off. When i reboot after 30 minutes, it shows 1 or 2% charge and then again after sometimes get switched off. Several times I have faced this isuue and the main problem is this issue wont happen every time, so I cant go to service centre too. If I ask for replacement, they will ask me to show the problem but if the problem vanish, they wont do anything. So if anyone else faced this issue and have any solution please help me. Thanks.

Hi,
I've actually faced a similar issue (perhaps not the same). It was the very first time I bought the phone, to many charging troubles. The phone on connected didn't show charging or sometimes say "Not Charging". I had to turn off the phone and get it somehow to charging mode left it around half an hour - then after some tantrums the phone once turns on - displayed charging like 12% already. Thereon the charging went OK. So perhaps there is some issue with the OS's calibration with battery.
Once I allow the phone to go less than 10% with dual sim on - the problems re-appear. Most probably, on initial usage - allow battery to completely Charge and then discharge for 3-5 times then the charging woes dwindle away. Hope this helps. Cheers!

The prob is in charger. May be there is some loose connection in the charger itself.. simply go to service centre for a replacement of ur charger.. In my case the phone is charging as usuall with an another charger..
Sent from my GT-I8552 using Tapatalk
There are two reasons why this happens one is the problem with the firmware of the phone, and the other with the charger, u use any other charger from samsung for a period and see the problem is still there. If this persists, run to service centre and ask them to reinstall/flash your ROM.
Probably it will be with the charger, and when the SC personnel checks they wont agree with you for a problem in the charger. Better you check it with another charger.. :good:

It was charger peoblem.. Samsung SC personnel was denying that its a problem and even harassed me. Next day I went their with proof of my problem and they told the problem is in data cable part and as my phonr is 4months old, I wont get warranty.. Next day i called samsung call centre and confirmed myself about the warranty and abused the manager of that SC for telling me lie and then he replaced the full charger set without saying a single word..

Happens to me aswell... It started about 2 months ago... I usually charged my phone with magnetic charger with longer, unofficial cable. But some time ago, it started to charge only to about 85% at this point, phone disconnect s/connects like if I unplugged it... Only thing that solves this is using original charger, original cable (magnetic or USB)... This is the only way I can charge it to full.
Thanx alot for replying but i use original usb charger it come with the device and the same problem

Well, in that case... I would probably turn it off and try to charge the phone to 100%, maybe flash stock ROM via Flashtool, or just use warranty and return the phone, if nothing helps.

After you connect the magnetic charger upside down you fry one of the diodes on the mainboard.
Do as you want, your phone, your cash
isnt it repairable like the repair center will ask for theprice of a new phoen to fix it !!!
