hello all
i have a very peculiar problem with my s3. I have been using official unbranded poland rom (I9300XXBLH1), flashed it over the rom that came stock on it, since i got the device without any problems. when 4.1.1 offical came out and it was for poland i went on sammobile, grabed the rom, flashed and at first all seemed fine until i tried to charge the phone.
first the phone didn't charge at all then it charged some but i noticed that red led does not shine as birght when the phone doesnt charge, it goes dim. the cable and charger are fine, tested with other combos and on other phones all works fine. the phone also charges fine when its turned off.
now the peculiar part... once i rooted, wiped everything from recovery and reverted back to poland 4.0.4 all charging issues disappear. wiping everything again then installing 4.1.1 reintroduces the charging problem, this was my first thought - bad flash, but it wasn't.
why does my s3 respond this way to jelly bean, have others had similar problems? any info apriciated
I got the same problem
I got this same problem in my S3. Now my S3 have a crazy behaves related charging and its begin to happen about the second day that I did update. And I did the official update that popped up in my screen.
So any one could help us to figure out what going on?
Thanks in advance!

in the meantime i tried super wipe script and numerous custom roms based on 4.1.1 and they all have the same charging issue. not that its surprising just thought its worth mentioning. i am really confused by this.

guys try few things
1. use only genuine usb cable / charger
2. use genuine usb cable + iphone wall charger - it may sound crazy but for me it made the difference.
3. use other cable
i was facing similar problem, it went off by charging with charger that i had at home from SGS1. i a mable to charge it again.
they are few topics around about bad quality USB pin on phone, or even battery, or low charger quality.
if nothing would work you have to contact the shop/carrier and claim repair/refund/exchange
and i think its not software issue... check

I have exactly the same problem with omega v27 jelly bean
I have installed lots it ICS roms but this never happened....i am sure its some software problem cuz everyone seems to get this after the jelly bean update.
And charing from 0% to 100 % took me around 8 hours
Anyone else facing this problem?

well, i have already stated in original post that i have tried different cable/charger combo and that every single cable and charger i tried works just fine on other phones i have around the house. heck, all of them work fine on s3 too when on ics but not if jelly bean is installed. so it aint the chargers, its the software in the phone.
also those threads were started some months ago, the issue here is different, charging problems did not come "out of the blue", they come and go with jelly bean installation, that's the weirdest part.
I think this is connected with Fast Dormancy.
First time when I flashed Omega 27 (Jelly Bean) I got same problem.
Than I turn off Fast Dormancy and this problem turned off too

this is what fast dormancy is and how to disable it, i have no idea how a network feature would be connected to a charging problem... i would understand if it was battery drain problem...
im going to flash 4.1.1 again, discharge the battery then charge it while the phone is off... see if that helps

I'm also having this problem. As an added twist, my phone is plugged into a Viewsonic GTablet at night. It worked fine under ICS, under JB it only charges around 70-75%. Better Battery Stats says "usb cb wake lock" and "usb device wake lock" were both active the entire time with 69.5% while the phone was charging. "secril_fd-interface" (FD) had 1.6%, so I don't think that is my issue. I will try again tonight with a normal charger and see if it makes a difference. I have the red charging light and other notifications disabled at night, my wife and I both have GSIII's and it looked like a disco the first night before we turned those off
Just thought I would throw that out there.
Temp solution for charging problem...
Hi all,
I too face the same problem. But it is not the fault with Cable or charger but with JB ROM Only. Someone in this post said that charging took 8 long hours from 0-100%. This is because your phone thinks that it is charging from a USB power source rather than AC power source. This can be verified from the battery screen in settings menu. This is a problem with JB kernel which needs to be addressed.
But as a workaround, just unplug the charger from the phone and again plug it back.T S3 will consider that it is charging now from a powersource (will be shown as AC in the Battery screen under setting menu). If it doesnt come the first time, try repeating for a couple more times (try unplugging from the charger end rather from the phone end)... this will resolve temporarily this charging issue, till the kernel permanent fix comes out....
Just came to share my agony..my cell has been on wall charger since 24 hrs and is still just 80%.
So as u guys said,I am staying optimist and waitin for some sort of kernel fix.
Any updates on this issue?
BTW I'm on Wanam 3.7 with siyah 1.6RC3
Need help to get my phone functional again
Today I plugged my s3 into HP envy17's USB(one that specifically says charging port)
Now it my cell is charging at rate of around ~14%/hr which previously charged at rate of around ~5%/hr only
Thought I should share,it's definitely something wrong with how JB manages the charging,possibly defective drivers...any fix any 1
Same here guys, samsung deseption u.u
ok i'm back with doing some experiments...
charging the battery to full while the phone is off then discharging it completely (doing a cycle, so to say) didn't really give any results, i even did this twice, purging batterystats from cwm also did nothing...
i just wanna clarify something... do all of you also experience the dimmed red charging light when screen is off? we should prob notify samsung through official bug report service or something...
get into recovery mode by CWM >advanced > reset battery stat > reboot
i think it ll work

After updating to ICS I cannot charge my phone while it's off.
I always charge the phone during the night and never let it fully die but today I didn't see that the battery level is so low and my phone died now I cannot turn it on to charge it. I get constant reset, my LED flashes blue/red and it resets non stop.
2 nights ago forgot about that problem and woke up at 3 o'clock to find out that my phone has been restarting for about 4 hours.
Give any advice.
P.s. My girl's also with Neo, also updated to 4.0.4, same problem there...

I just found out after reading your post that I have the same problem but I removed some app so don´t know if has anything to do with removed app!
Downgraded to GB and you can charge your phone normally. After be careful to don´t let your phone battery complete drain.
I am trying some roms besides official to see if I found out one that can allow charging in off mode. Is annoying this….
EDIT1: I just made a clean update from GB to ICS without removing any app or installing any different kernel and is charging in off mode.
So this behavior any something to do or with removed app or with different kernel installation!
Have to find out.
EDIT2: No. Is not Kernell issue or Super User that I just flash by CWM. So last option is any removed app or eventually any combination of factors.
Yes, I am in the process of downgrading, good thing is that we have two Neo's so I can use the other one's battery
Dudes! I managed to charge my phone but darn it wasn't easy.
Now one of these is on the way: http://www.ebay.com/itm/190586739151?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649
Are you sure it's a hardware issue, because I've tried 4 different ICS ROMs (Stock ICS, JJDoctor's, KA20 and AOSP 4.0.4) and I've been able to charge my phone while off in all of them.
Maybe getting your phone to a service center will find the culprit.

Is not a hardware issue.
I also had the same problem but now I don´t!!!
I downgrade to GB and flash ICS again and problem is gone.
Why? Don´t know.
Probably is a combination of things.
I never said anything about hardware issue. At least don't remember it.
After flashing back to GB and upgrading to ICS the problem was gone until I removed all apps that don't use directly from system/vendor/app
Now I cannot charge again but hopefully I won't leave my battery to totally die again.

Chargemon, if I'm not mistaken, is replaced when installing cwm. This means I should be facing this problem as well. Let me check...

EDIT: I couldn't replicate the problem. The phone started charging normally when off. A few seconds in the light went from green to red, but I think it recalculated the battery from 90% to 89%, hence the switch. Perhaps this only happens when the battery is fully drained?
Hi all, I have a very serious problem here. Please help me out.
Whenever I am using my phone for more than around 10-15 mins continuously, even though battery is around 80-85%, I lose network all of a sudden, the phone flickers or flashes or blinks for a moment and shuts down all of a sudden. When I try to boot it again, it says battery low and many times, it wont boot only. When it is about to be botted only it gets turned off. the solution is to connect to charger when it shuts down. At first, on connecting, it shows zero battery, and immediately battery level will be restored to the previous level, after blinking again in the charging screen and then only I can turn it on. What is the issue?
I also tried wiping data/factory reset.. Wipe cache and dalvik wipes repeatedly. Tried many roms like resurrection 2.6, 3.01, XWLPM stock rom, Salman ROM, etc. The same issue happens in all the roms as well.
Somebody do reply!

well do one thing- try flashing another kernel too- anything will do - siyah maybe. 1% chance of it working..
and if it doesn't, what this means is that it is most probably a hardware issue- and you would need to get your phone checked in the service center.
Have you tried a different battery?

Maybe battery failure! try with a different battery if no change and everything was like before then I suggest you to send it to customer service as soon as possible.
Same thing for Stock
I experienced the same thing on Stock samsung unrooted rom 4.0.3
I suddenly found that my phone is not responding and is heated up too much, I quickly removed the battery and after letting it to cool off restarted it.
Was amazed to see battery came down to 20% from 80%, Post this incident it is working fine
Now I have tried multiple kernels and Roms and it still is working awesomely on everything I throw at it

Turns out its some battery problem. I swapped mine with a friend's battery. He is facing the same issues now and I am not facing any issue. In ebay and flipkart, it shows original battery costs just 559 Rs(around 10$). Is the original battery available for such a cheap price? Or is it not genuine?
It sounds suspiciously cheap.. mmmmm. You should try going for the legit 2000mAh from samsung longer battery life haha so much win

Hi yashwanthms,
Just to let you know, currently I'm facing exactly the same issue.
During or after using camera, gps or usage of data, the screen flickers and then after a few seconds it freezes and shuts down. Switching it on doesn't work, because it thinks the battery is dead while still having 50% left or something like that. It does however work when it is plugged into power.
Thanks for your reply of your battery replacement. I will try the same thing and see if it works out.
Still a question though: did you buy a new battery and what were your results afterwards?
Kind Regards,
Ahsimmis
same issue here
After reading above posts, I'm sure it is a battery issue. I use hotspot and GPS a lot which is why I've to charge a lot and charge while docked to car cigarette lighter too, no wonder the battery didn't last more than a year. Will buy a new battery tomorrow and post the result here.

Like others said, I think it's battery problem. Do not use cheap unreliable batteries, nor leave your phone charging after 100% charged for a long time. This would affect your battery performance. Experienced that using my back-up battery, from 25%, sudden shutdown. My original battery would alert me first "Battery is now low, please recharge now". The back-up won't.
This is to confirm that I've purchased a new battery from Samsung franchise store. It is doing fine.
Cost me Rs.800 which is like $18. The store didn't have any retail battery in stock but they provided me one from one of the phones on display. I'm not sure if I did the right thing by taking it but I needed one badly and none of the stores I went to had any in stock for retail (there are like 15 of them in a 2km radius)
This is happening to both mine and my wife's Galaxy S II's. Screen flickers, shuts down, comes back with zero battery, plug it in to charge for a few minutes, suddenly back to ~80%. I've also found the phone is hot when this happens, pulled the battery and its NOT the battery that is hot, the phone itself is (feels hottest right below the camera, just above the battery port).
I ordered a replacement battery for her and it cleared the issue for about 2 weeks but now its happening again. The replacement was a genuine Samsung OEM, same maH, same part number.
My phone is rooted with a custom ICS kernel, her's is factory ICS.
I've ordered a new battery for my phone too to try, but I'm not convinced its solely a battery issue.

I have the same problem, change the battery with new one but still it happens & I am afraid it may be hardware!
Phone is not root & running official rom 4.0.4
I have changed battery and now it works ok. But yesterday, the phone freezed and became very hot. I rebooted it and then the battery level decreased high. After that it works ok again.
same problem
hi there,
I am having the same problem as on the OP. Have already ordered a new battery, because my warranty expired on sep 15th and I was on holidays outside my city and without the invoice
do you have any feedback about changing the battery?
thanks.
Hey guys,
I have been searching but I can't find any 'good' thread with information about my issue. Well, my issue is that I experience VERY slow charging on my Galaxy S3 since I updated to Jelly Bean. Sometimes it is really fast, like it was always but it became alot slower compared to ICS. I have checked everything and it's no hardware issue or something like that. When I install a new Jelly Bean rom my first charge goes fast like it should. But then the next charge it goes slow. Like 2% each 15 minutes. First this was on ICS about 1% each 1 minute .20 seconds... Anybody got an idea?
Could it be an app causing this issue? If yes, is there any possibility to know what app it is instead install every app separate en checking this..
Thanks in advance!
(Btw if you're experiencing the same, tell me!)
Change your USB cable

Installed now the Android Revolution HD ROM it it seems to charge faster now... Alot faster... I'm hoping it's fixed with this ROM!
What kernel u choose?
Stock kernel or Perseus custom kernel in AROMA installer ?
Running android 4.1.2 jelly bean rom Android Revolution HD. My battery is again charging slow. So slow that I plugged it in about 1 hour and 15 minutes ago and that it decreased from 30 tot 32 with usage. Lol. any solution?
Kernel info:
3.0.36-Perseus-alpha27 blablabla...
You could try if Siyah Kernel solves the issue.
What are you using to charge the device? Make sure it shows as "AC" in the Battery-screen since otherwise it will be capped at 0.5Amp instead of 1Amp

You have the same scenario with me
I also had this problem when i first updated my phone to Jelly Bean and found that charging becomes very slow
So i tried SGS II charger like you did and it worked fine
what i did was I changed my USB cable (with 5 pins)
In some forums, you may find that the USB cable with only 4 pins are no standard for SGS III
after reading those forums, i rechecked my old USB cable and found that it has only 4 pins
its not anything with jelly bean change your usb sync cable to something else like of nokia's or a good quality one . I have experienced this issue
I agree. Change your cable and that will solve your problem. I had the same problem as you, changed my cable for a new one and my problem was fixed. No more discharging while charging for me.

With ICS I used stock usb cable with 3 meter usb extension cable and it charged fast (about 3 hours from 1-100%). Same without extension. With Jelly if I use same 3 meter usb extension cable then it charges about 7-8 hours. Without extension it charges about 3 hours. Original ROM's both.
So I think it IS related somehow with JB vs ICS. Otherwise both should act same way with extension and without extension.
Well I used my same usb cable and charger thing where you put the usb cable in and it charged slower. Well I'll try find other usb cable on internet of good quality. But since yesterday phone charges a alot faster. But stil long. really long. On ICS this wasnt the case. But I have to order another usb cable cuase stock one is way to short. Ill report guys!
Disabled NFC and GPS rebooted phone and it charges incredibly fast somehow.
Aarrghhhh cant find a solution!

Have you tried the first solution posted above, changing cables. Try it. I too had that problem. Sometimes it charge fast other times slow. Bought samsung original cable from samsung retailer and all is okay.

i try to use another cable for my phone and look how its going..
Somehow it charges fast again after removing data of kik, rebooting, installing, rebooting and full charge.
Hi guys ,l need help here .l recently flashed NEATROM LITE on my SG2 all went well but later that evening my phone started shutting off and saying charger connected when its not ;l managed to boot to recovery and restore back to my previous ROM which was JB 4.1.2 stock by Sam and Phillz kernel. but now wat l have is massive battery drain and when charger connected there is a delay in it being read .battery manager has inacurate readings too .instead of discharging when of charge it says not charging . what could have gone tits up now ?
Check your battery pins or charger port. Sounds like you have damaged something.
Also try a different battery to rule that out.
I have had a look at the pins but nothing seems evident

Hi,
Since 1 week now I have some huge difficulties to charge my GS3. For exemple when I plug it before going to sleep, in the morning there is only 50%. Sometimes I plug it and it stop the charge itself (not at 100%), i have to move the cable a little to continue the charge.
I tried several cable and plugs, nothing change.
Does anybody experienced this? What can I do?
Ps : I already read this post but I didn't find any answer.
Thx
I presume you charged the phone through the AC power? I had similar issue prior which was resolved once I wiped my Battery Stats. Is your phone rooted?
yes my phone is rooter I have omega V35 ROM and i already tried to wipe the battery stats and nothing changed
Im sure you have also clear cache, wipe, reflash the ROM? Its highly unlikely that all of your chargers are malfunctioning, If the phone is still within the warranty period, it may be time for you to visit Samsung Service Centre (SSC)...but unroot first!
same issue here

no i didn't tried to reflash the ROM cause it was working great with this ROM before, I contacted samsung and they will repare it but i need to find the bill first. Is it really necessary to unroot the phone? Installing a stock ROM is good or is there something else to do to unroot it?

unrooting is in reference to returing to stock ROM. SSC will invalid warranties to rooted phones.
i just reflash the ROM and the phone is still very slow to charge.
I will send back to samsung i think.
i just installed the Omage ROM V38 and i still have the problem, you can look at this graph :
Take battery out for 10 minutes. Plug back in and see. If not possibly battery port issue, my wife's had to be sent back for it.

So different USB cables didn't helped? That usually does the trick. Other than that try kernel such as yank kernel which allows fast charging option.

First flash STOCK ROM and see what's gonna happen.
If the problem still persists, send your phone for service.
Make sure there are no signs of custom ROMs and Kernels.
Solution is the CABLE
Here is a confirmation of the solution from Turkey: It IS the CABLE...
Check the cable end that goes into the S3, if you see 5 places but with only 4 wires, it charges VERY slowly... However, I used a $5 charger which had 5 wires in the end that goes into galaxy S3 and voila!

Can anyone confirm this?
My stock Samsung cable has those 4 connections instead of, what looks like the 5 that can fit in. And it charges so slowly!
9/10 its the cable. I don't know bout what is said above. Mine charged fast then suddenly started charging slowly. It was to do with the kernels usb charger stability detection.
Changed cable and all good

So if I install stock Android, will that change the kernal and therefore fix the issue?
I don't see why I should have to pay and wait for a new cable, even if it's only a few quid and a few days :/

All Samsung kernels have the detection. Whether changing the kernel or cable fixes it or not is not knowable.
all you can do is try. can you not borrow a cable to test it? Surely you know someone with a cable?
yes, mine s3 to does charge slow i have the Purelook HD rom please help, take my phone on charger from 4& next morning about 50- 60 & only charged!!
I have a similar issue here, although my problem only started with latest arhd 25.0 Rom, never had this with previous roms of arhd....some times the charge is very fast , then next time it will charge to 19% then stop, then next time it's fast then will be very slow... very intermittent, I have changed chargers. Still same results, going to try wipe the battery stats to see if that helps.
