Anyone gonna help

I don't know the answer to your question. Sorry.
But your chances of receiving helpful answers will start decreasing if you insist on bumping your thread after only 40 minutes.
This is a forum board, not your personal tech support instant messaging client. Not everyone is logged in at every second of the day waiting with anticipation for the next person to come asking for help with a technical problem on their phone.
See rule 5. (You DID read the rules, right?)

I think the problem is from your phone charger port

Try to clean your phone charger port. Which kernel you use? Do you tried charging via USB cable?

Tab thinks it's charging

I was using my tab while keeping it charging, got the battery 100% full notification, so I unplugged the charger. However, it thinks it's still plugged in. I've tried restarting multiple times and wiping cache, dalvik cache, and battery stats, but it's still happening.
The big problem is that now it won't recognize other things, such as plugging in a USB drive or game controller with the adapter. How do I fix it?

I just tried a complete factory reset and upgrade to v2 of the rom with pershoots kernel, still not working. Still says fully charged and plugged in, but no way it could be hours later.
Please help!

I maybe wrong but it sounds as if your charging port may be messed up somehow. Call the Samsung number on the back of the tab its on the bottom it'd really small lettering though. They may be able to help.

That's what I ended up doing. Their customer support is amazing! 24/7 phone line, and it took five minutes to refill them what was going on and that I has already retired everything like resetting, and now they're sending me a shipping label free of charge to repair it. I'll have it back (same one, not a new one) in 5-14 days from when I send it in with the label, which should be 3-5 days to get. Not too bad srt all.

Samsung Galaxy Player 5 Charging Issue
Slightly different device, same problem.My Player will continue to show as charging after I unplug it. This does not happen every time, but it happens more often than not. Also, wall charger or PC both cause the problem. A little more info about my device: I have an un-rooted domestic (American) version of the YP-G70, which is a 5in Android device with no cellular connection of any kind (wifi only). I have had no other problems with the device and it is only a few days old. I suspect I will have to get it sent back to Sammy. Anyway, thanks in advance for any help, and please spare the noob!

Please guys, I've a big problem with my gs2 help mee

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

Note won't charge...

I have a white galaxy note on AT&T rooted with saurom 7.1 and for some reason when I use my USB extension with the original or after market charging wire the phone will not charge, in fact it still uncharges while I'm using it but it shows it plugged in.
It's not the rom because it did it before I flashed it from stock and also on the ICS leak and now again on saurom 7.1. Without the extension though it charges perfectly normal and quickly. One day it took 6 hours to go from 2% to 13% while it wasn't in use. I've also tried using other extensions I have and the one identical one did the same thing and another shorter one actually didn't allow the phone to charge at all or show it was plugged in... What gives?

Have u cleared the battery cache maybe it's wacked out and giving u faulty readings have u installed a battery app see if that is reading different?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
I read that it wasn't a great idea to mess with the battery like that so I haven't tried. Plus like I said without the extension it works fine

I'm not sure if I'm allowed to "bump" threads but I'm still having this problem and was wondering if anyone had any help or suggestions for me?
I would recalibrated the battery using a app that requires root in market.....wait till it hits 100 then recalibrate it....then let it drain all the way down....charge to 100 then do it again....this way the battery and system knows the true values...just my opinion I would try

The weird thing is my phone will show it's charged to 100% but if I unplug it and plug it back in the charging animation will start again and it will "recharge" again
How long is the extension?

Are you plugging into a wall outlet or a USB port on computer. There are a number of battery threads on here, but the quick recap is that the USB port on your computer isn't going to charge your Note very quickly or at all when you use it because the USB port doesn't provide enough power.
It'll charge much faster from the wall.
And even faster if you're not using it.

From the wall with a USB extension it took 5-6 hours to go up 12% without it, it goes to 12% in 5-7 minutes. This is without using it.

My note battery died completely and the phone shutoff like normal. The problem Im having is it wont turn on or power... it will for a brief second show the battery charging symbol (Big one in middle of screen), but then it goes away.
How can I recover from this?

I had the same problem with my note, it wouldn't charge via data cable or factory charging cable or 3rd party cable. After speaking with Samsung they said that this is a known issue, but did not tell me what the issue was except that it did not affect the battery. They sent me a new device, and was instructed to use my original back cover, battery, and they sent me a replacement factory charging cable and was instructed to use it exclusively. I got the feeling it was a port/cable issue and that they were well aware of it with an efficient return policy set up. Maybe you won't have to go this route, but a free (new, not reman) phone is a free phone.

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.

Are you using the Samsung Charger that came with the phone?
If yes do what he said ^ and call [email protected] and tell them. They will most likely send u a new battery.

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.

[Q] Battery takes forever to charge ????

Helpp i have a rooted samsung galaxy s3 international version and i had cyanogenmod 10. After a couple of months the battery takes forever to charge. It goes up at a rate of 1% per 10 mins if phone is turned of. But when im using it, even when its being charged the battery would slowly decrease, i bought a new battery and a new charger but the problem ia still the same . And when the phone is unplugged battery life is pretty good. Im confused please help.

Dude I have the exact same problem but more severe. It stops charging randomly. Plus mine charges 2 percent per hour. So its really annoying. I posted a thread a couple of days ago, but no one seemed to know the solution. I guess we just have to unroot the mobile ( if at all it's rooted ), and send it to the service center and hope to get a replacement. *fingers crossed*
Try searching before adding a new post. Your question has already been answered multiple times already about this question. And by the way, it's your charging cable giving you the problem. Changed mine, problem fixed.
But i changed the whole charger and it doesnt charge its the samsung travel adapter.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
That is the idea, if you have trouble when charging, chec the cable, second change the charger, if that does not solve the problem, check the USB port in the phone, sometimes a little piece of dirt, lint or anything else can obstruct the pins thus making a bad conection, clean it, otherwise, tee port in your phone may be faulty, luck
