hi, my battery was really low than my phone turned off. i went home to charge but no charging sign. tried to charge it for 1 hour nothing happend. did my phone just died? or can i do somthing to get it back to work?
also i drained it 3 times the past 3 days, could i have broken the battery becouse of this?
try plugging the charger in with the battery out, and fit the battery after and see if it starts to charge? maybe leave it connected overnight or try another battery if possible.

I'm not an expert, so double check the information I'm giving you, as it might be wrong.
Have you tried to use a USB jig to revive the phone? You can buy one on eBay for €5. Hopefully it will solve the problem.
Otherwise, I don't think that it should be the case, but it is reported that SSD drives can be completely erased when they suffer a subtle power cut. In this case, there is no damage other than the complete wipe of all information on the memory. As far as I'm concern, the phone's memory is quite similar to SSD and other flash memories, therefore it would be a possibility, although it is not likely.
Should it be the case, it's better to seek Samsung Service Centre's help. Running out of battery should never damage the phone, therefore, if you have warranty it should be covered.
also i noticed that after a few hours of trying to charge it the battery feels really colld. could this mean the battery is dead?

Have you tried another charger, or charginging with the usb lead? Soundlike the charger could be duff.

hi any chance did u solve your problem?
i am having the same problem my voltage on the battery drops down to 0 so it does not charge or power on when connected to a charger.
i had to shock the battery with 5v dc till i got the voltage upto 3.2v than put back into phone than on charge but it still drains out completely. any help on how u solved your problem?
im trying to calibrate my battery on my maxx. the lockscreen says charged but the battery percentage in my taskbar is stuck at 99%. ive seen it reach 100% last night but i haven't been able to get it to do that tonight. even at 99% on a charger i get no charging animation.
ive heard rumors this phone has issues like this or should i be worried? whats the proper way to calibrate it and get it too a 100% charge?
use it for a while, like get it under 90% then try again, but for actually attempting to "calibrate" run it damn near dead then charge it back up.

It's probably something in the charger, the ecomoto chargers have a sorta "kill switch" that will stop charging the battery once its reached capacity to prevent over charging. I first noticed it when I was using the charger to charge my Samsung Galaxy S wifi 4.0 player and like 5-10 minutes after it registered a full charge (turned off) it was like it wasn't plugged up (i hit the power button on my player which on its charger always caused the screen to light up showing how far charged it is, but on our ecomoto it was like it wasn't plugged to a charger anymore).
Received my WCP-700 wireless charger and twice I have put my phone on the charger and minutes later phone is rebooting and battery temp close to 50C. I have noticed others having similar problems with other phones so I suspect it is a problem with the technology.
Anyone else having problems with the wireless charger?
If it happens again I am ebaying, it may be convenient but at least my usb charger does not cause my phone to shutdown from overheating.

I called up fazle and he says that his phone isnt as well. :bowdown:
I have the same one and mine doesnt overhead.
Surround electronics can mess with the charging and cause things to heat up. Also, make sure the cord isn't running parallel with charger. Check the manual to see what I mean.
Also the farther electricity has to travel, the hotter it gets. Try lining it up better.
I have zero trouble with my wireless charger, same LG wcp700 as you. And I've got a case on mine as well. You've definitely got something else going on.

Mine doesn't do that either. My suggestion is to pull it off of the charger as soon as you're at 100% and don't put it on until you're below ~10%. Magnetic fields inducing current causes heat to be released in the wires and surfaces -- it's something you can't stop if it's happening. I'm sure HTC took (some of) all the necessary steps to lessen this, but it still happens.

I wouldn't be making a habit of waiting until 10% to charge, you should get better battery life over the long term by charging before 30%
My phone becomes warm to the touch when charging, but not hot. I have left it on the charging pad while fully charged for hours and haven't had any issues with temperature.

I VERY much disagree with you -- all of the phone manuals etc. say to wait until the battery is dead until you charge. The higher the battery is when you charge the more detriment to the battery life. With modern batteries, however, it doesn't very much matter because they've been designed to be better about this and you won't get much more time out of your batteries by discharging completely before charging.

There are varying views on this, but I was told never to let a LiPo get completely depleted. Beyond all of that, I feel heat is far worse for the battery. It looks like I am not the only one with problems with the tech, others are experiencing the heat issue:

An explanation and some evidence would be nice. Its hard to believe a claim without proof especially with the way you formatted the OP. You asked if anyone tried the charger then two posts later you claim it screwed your battery up. I'm looking forward to hearing about the issue because if its a phone issue that's different that a charger causing an issue.

Got the charger yesterday put my phone on it last night before bed. This morning wake up it is only at 85%. That's the first thing and I have seen some reviews about this one and others doing the same thing. My battery life I was getting about 16 to 18hr a day of battery life. Basically when I get home from work I am about 60 to 50 % everyday. I have been flashing roms and dealing with battery life and stuff for years. Today I did not even make it home before it was dead. Now I downloaded a battery recalibration app and I am going to try that to see if that gets my battery back the way it was. It Sucks because I was so excited to get this charger. I don't know what the deal is. I emailed the seller on eBay waiting to hear back from them. Proof? I can't screen shot my battery use cause I have charged and took it off and back on today so many times. I will tomorrow and see what happens. Guess I will just have to order a different one.
From the photographs, that charger looks identical to the Itian A6 (it's even called "A6").
I have two of the Itians and they both work perfectly (my only complaint is that they will only charge the Nexus 6 in Portrait, not in Landscape).

Mine charged in both no problems with that. Just will not charge pass 85% and my battery drains Super fast now. I took my phone off the charger this morning at 5 it is 6:57 now and my battery is at 80% usually it would be at 97%. I have about 20min of on screen time now.
Usually my battery would say 1 day and something left of battery till dead after using this charger one time now it's this

Its possible but the battery had a built in safety so it won't overheat and cause damage. I have used a qi charger every night since I bought my Nexus 6 in November and I've had 0 issues. I use a TYLT VU and or LG WCD-100 and still get excellent battery life. The only thing that I could think of is if the battery massively overheated for a long period it could result in reduced capacity but even then it's not instantaneous. A battery fixer app is worthless and won't help fix any issues with it so I wouldn't bother with one. It could be more than one thing contributing to what you are claiming and using the charger could just be a coincidence.
I'm not saying it's not possible however l am saying it's likely that there's more than one contributing factor. I would use the phone and run a battery monitoring app (check the battery life OP in the general section for more details) and see if there is anything causing it.

Yes both of them charge to 100% just fine. I own 4 quick charge 2.0 chargers and 2 qi ones and they all charge my phone to 100%. I have a dozen or so older chargers that also work but I've never had any issues with my qi chargers. Once it gets down to 97-98% it starts charging again but I always wake up with it at 100%.

I restored to a back up I had and it seems to be back on track with my normal battery life. When I get home I might play with it a little and watch it when I put it on there and see what happens. Because I have not installed nothing on my phone in at least a week. So I don't think its anything else. But we will see thanks for your help.
So generally speaking is it the charger or the phone that terminates the charging due too high temps?

The phone, although I never heard of it happening with an internal Qi chip before. I saw some people post it about it happening back in the day on the note 2 when those aftermarket Qi adapters first came out.

Ok so this is the deal I tested it over and over. When my phone gets to 100% the charger cuts off. When my phone charges on the wireless charger it kills my deepsleep. So in other words once I hit 100% it rapidly starts going down. Then the charger kicks on again then off on off on. I took the phone off the charger and sat it on the table I did not touch anything. Within 10min I was at 95%. I put it back on the charger it got to 100% I took it off rebooted my phone then I got deepsleep? I don't know why it is killing my deepsleep?

Well that is typical behavior and not your phone overheating from the charging like the post you quoted. Qi chargers do not trickle charge like a USB charger so they do exactly what you're describing.

I never said my phone was overheating. I said it only charged to 85% and it broke my deepsleep. No deepsleep drains your battery fast. That's the problem. So if I put it on there at night before I go to bed (which is why I bought it) all night it will go on and off.

I know but that's what the person you were quoting was asking about, over heating terminating the charging.
Hey Guys,
Anyone else experience slow to almost non existent charging speed if the phone has been on for a few hours?
The only way it goes back to charging fast is if I restart the phone while its plugged into a charger.
I have tried using the stock charger and aftermarket ones and different cables as well. Makes no difference until restart.
Chime in if anyone has any idea whats happening and/or how to fix it.
PS: I am unlocked and rooted if that matters.
Is the screen off? Having the screen on during charging will skew the charge cycle.
Does it charge normally when shutdown?
Possible battery, charging port, or mobo failure.
Check phone for any signs of battery swelling.
Same issue here. Got the phone today, charges sloooow by USC-C as well as QI... Although it shows "fast charging" in settings. I will check, if it's better after a reboot.

Doesnt matter if the screen is on or off, I even left overnight and gained like 8% charge.
Battery seems to hold a charge fine, there is no swelling and discharge behavior is normal. Used to charge normally a few days ago.

SOT has it diminished significantly?
Charging at a start temperature above 72°F?
If so it sounds like a charge port or mobo failure... sorry.
Try clearing the system cache and a hard reboot.
Try toggling fast charging on/off 3 times.

Make sure the port is clean and free of debris.
Inspect and carefully clean* if needed with a toothbrush and a small amount of anhydrous isopropyl alcohol.
Lol, RO water if needed than the alcohol.
Allow to dry completely.
*I live in a dusty environment and even after 2 years never had to clean my C port. However my bdu cargo pants pockets are lint free, not all pants pockets are. In general these ports seem to stay clean but you know how that goes...
Same here. Did someone find a solution?
In my case it just normalized itself after a few days of usage... strange thing was, that the slow charging affected both, usb and qi charging.
Glad you fixed.
Btw maybe intelligent charging. If phone can't detect a time where you don't use it it have problem adapting charging speed. If you change everyday the moment you put it on charge better deactivate that option
If I may continue this thread, I have another question about the charging. Is it possible to disable fast charging?
I only charge at night so I don't need my phone to warm up from quick charge. On my old Samsung Galaxy Note 9 I could do it, but now I can't find the setting.
Thanks.

The only harmful part of the charge cycle on this phone is the top-off, and you can adjust that. You could use a 5W charger but I doubt it would extend the life.
More beneficial is checking other threads for features that may drain (add wear to) the battery.

Simply use a 12 watt or less brick.
Fast charging needs a compatible 25w brick and cable (Samsung). In most phones it has to be enabled. Disabling fast charging is easy... enabling it sometimes is not

The whole point of having a feature is to use it when needed. If I am in a hurry I want to activate 30W charging with a single toggle in the settings. I don't have to bring two different power bricks, one 5W, one 30W, and manually switch between them.

you should get a new phone it's the only way to fix it because it's broken and you can't fix it when it's like that.
