Hi,
Is the s3 tab don't charging with a other power supply (not original samsung)?Not even from the PC's usb ...
thanks
Same here. All stock, less than one month old, charged only a couple of times. When connected to original from the box charger gives red X on battery and when off charges extremely slow as if it was on usb.
Tried third party chargers and cables and it's the same... did you manage to fix this?
I tried a factory restore but that didn't fix the problem either.
Well it turned out otg was the culprit. I remembered i had watched a movie off a usb thumb drive several days ago so i figured it must be it. So i reconnected the otg with the thumb drive and browsed the files for a bit and then unmounted it and connected the charger... what do you know! The tab started charging normally. So i guess this tab really has an issue with otg.
Had the same issue, followed the same process enforcing the unmount of the usb otg. Problem solved. Thx

Thank you so much! You saved my day! I had the same issue and it was due to a previous connection with my Sony mirrorless camera.
I'll write to Samsung Italy. It is unacceptable!

It's worth to mention that since the Tab updated to Android 8, this hasn't occured again.
Thank you @The-CROW so very, very much for pointing out OTG being the culprit in #3 !
My mother's Galaxy Tab S3 was sitting in a drawer with 37% battery for months because it was not charging.
After reading this thread, I connected the OTG SD Card reader, browsed some photos from my SD card, unmounted the device, and then connected the charger, and ...
... it's charging again!
I just had to register an account to say thank you!
Thankss broo

Question: Other users have said that you can charge from USB, but it charges slowly and it depends if the USB has enough power supplied to it. Have you tried a powered USB slot?

It works charging from usb connected to a car charger or wall charger but not from any ports on my laptop and I really am saying any general user will not have access to something like a high output USB port on their computer. so...yes, I've tried, no it wont work.
Trust me, when it comes to this device, I know a lot lol.

I'm curious now if my custom built desktop has a high output USB port. I'll have to check the specs on my motherboard when I get home.
Ha...
I just posted in the other thread about charging with USB.
Anyways, I've had success charging through a laptop and PC with the NT powered off (screen off maybe enough).
Tested! went to sleep with 25% and woke up to 100% connected to a laptop that was powered on all night, with the NT powered off completely.

If USB charging is anything like the NC I recall discussion about the power output of USB being too low to really charge with gusto. Dunno if this translate to the NC but wouldn't be surprised. Overnight with the NT off? Sounds possible.

NT does support charging via usb ports. It will not tell you it is charging but it actually is.

One point of constructive criticism that I see with a lot of videos:
If you have the ability to mount your camcorder on a tripod or something else so that it isn't moving around, and it keeps both hands free, and the video much more smooth.

Maybe try setting it up behind you somewhere and figure out the field of view with it zoomed in some. Like on another table or something else a little higher. Prop it up and get the angle right and once you figure out the field of view and the correct zoom, it will accomplish the same thing.

have you guys tried using a imac or a macbook... (on a macbook the port closer to the trackpad)
i heard that ever since the first ipad came out, apple gave more power to the usb ports so that you could charge the ipads on them as they also require more power than a standard usb port
Hey yall,
I got a quick question. My Prime for some reason will NOT connected to my PC as of this afternoon. Ive tried connecting to multiple PC's afterwords and none of them would detect the Prime at all and vice versca as my Prime would not pull up any notifications showing that it was connected. I have the Asus sync drivers installed and I know this becuase my Prime was plugged in to the PC and I was able to view all my internal memory files and was about to push a file to it when it just stopped communicating.. any suggestions would be helpful and I will give thanks.
Im already factory resetting and restoring from a nandroid..i will update and find out if it works once the restore is complete...
Yeah ...that didnt work. I even went as far as factory resetting and starting from scratch but it does not work anymore. Anybody care to jump in?
OK now my prime won't charge at all unless the screen is off. Does anyone know if this is a charger issue or prime itself???

Could be a charger issue. Do you have a dock? you can try hooking it into that first.
Inspect the charger cable, look at all the connections and see if any of them look broken or bent

I'm having a somewhat nonsensical issue with my keyboard dock: The keyboard does not work at all, the trackpad works perfectly, battery works, the dock port to connect to the computer works, the dock USB port supplies power (judging by the light from my optical mouse), but the tablet doesn't seem to detect anything connected to the USB port, i have not tested the dock SD slot.
I also connected a TF201 to my dock with no difference in the symptoms displayed.
Any ideas? Or am I out a dock?
Thanks!
Same problem

Hate to be that person, but I have to exact same problem! My tablet is running Cynanogen Mod 11. It still charges and the trackpad works, but the keyboard is 100% unresponsive. Whenever I plug in the dock it asks me to choose the keyboard layout in the notifications bar as well.
It seems that a few other people have this problem, I did find another thread about this exact same problem but it was from a long time ago and all they said was for the guy to return it and get it replaced.
It just does not seem to make sense that the track pad, charging station, and USB port for file transfer and stuff would work, but not the keyboard. I thought I might have changed a setting but I just factory reset the tablet and reinstalled Cynanogen Mod 11 and it still doesn't work . If anyone can enlighten us... that would be great!
Finally,
I read somewhere that you can cold boot the device. Here are the steps:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/ASUS_Transformer_Pad/TF300T#Cold_Boot
That method didn't work for me however, but idk maybe it will work for you.
I have no idea where the warranty card is, or how that even works but I heard ASUS warranty just sucks, so that is probably not an option for me. If it helps I bought mine off amazon.com a year ago or so.

not sure if you have solved this yet but I had the same problems and it turned out that one of the kids had knocked the keyboard off my desk and it had loosened a connection internally within the keyboard.
I found a youtube video of how to fix it, unscrewed the back of the keyboard and carefully popped the connector back in place.
It's a bit fiddly and took me about 30 mins to do with average electronics related knowledge

Nevermind, opened it up anyways and saw exactly the same problem. Reconnected the cable and the keyboard worked again after months of thinking it was just broken. Pretty chuffed and quite amazed, probably wouldn't have even attempted it if it wasn't for your post and this thread. Thanks for the information, very much appreciated here

Hey guys,
Just got the 5.1.1 update to my g watch and i noticed some charging differences, namely i can no longer charge my watch with my pc (its an always on pc). I checked cables etc and all are fine, and it will still charge through an AC outlet. Ive tried usb 2.0 and 3.0 ports.
Just wondered if anyone else had noticed this behaviour? The charging indicator wont even show up when its plugged into my pc. Also noting that usb debugging still works through my pc and all is detected fine there

I have the same update, and have the same problem as you, I only noticed it last night when I put it on to charge, I charge mine every night on the same usb port and have had no problems till last night, like yours mine will only charge from mains now, I've tested all my usb ports and they are all working okay. I hope some one has an answer for it.
I´ve checked this and mine works perfectly with a 5m cable connected to a usb hub. I´ve checked with other cables and without hub, and this still works.
I was able to address the issue by rebooting the watch.

If i reboot the watch whilst it is on the charger, it charges via usb in my pc - but if i take it off and put it back on, the problem returns, despite it still working with an AC charger, i'm assuming this is a software problem as android knows when its charging via usb or AC anyway. Hopefully a dev over here or the LG guys will fix it - i don't want to have to restart my watch every time i want to charge it, it's a pain in the arse and i shouldn't have to do it - i have a lack of AC ports in my room, hence i charge through my pc

I have 2 chargers because I use one for travel. After updating to 5.1.1, one works and the other does not. I swapped the components and found it was the cable. I hope that this helps.

All my cables seem to produce the same result, maybe it's just me - i tried the one that came with a quick charge charger and even that does the same thing. hmm, will pick up a new cable tomorrow and check it out!

I wouldn't bother. Some chargers just behave like USB devices to be able to charge older Blackberrys. I used the same cable with the PC and with a wall wart. Only the wall wart works unless I reboot the watch.
Thanks, most people seem to confirm its a bug.. That's what I love about xda, you can always find things like this. Thanks for all your help.
Hi, glad I found this thread.
I am having the same problem. It doesn't charge since the 5.1.1 update, but if it lays on the charger and I reboot it, it charges. If I take it off and put it back on, it doesn't charge and I need to reboot it again.
Have the same problem. After reboot, it charges on usb much slower but doesn't look like it (No charging icon). Otherwise I love the update.
Did you all factory reset after updating your watch? I also couldn't charge until I rebooted but it charges fine after the reboot.
Same issue
I can confirm the same behaviour. I have to reboot the g watch and then it start charging. Definitely a bug
Same here, watch was charging wen I went to sleep but charging stopped at around 60%

I've expressed my frustration over at the Android Wear help forum:
https://productforums.google.com/fo.../VRbw2FWOaiI;context-place=forum/android-wear
Oddly, my watch did NOT include the wall charger even though I got it new from Best Buy. Did anyone else not get a wall charger? I'm not the type to just blindly miss something as useful as a USB wall charger. I remember opening it up and saying to myself, "I guess I'll have to use my monitors USB port." I don't throw that stuff out. I still have the box and all the packing materials as well, and it's nowhere in there.
Just got the Nexus 9 a couple of days ago, charged it, but when I connected it to the computer, nothing, it's not detected at all. Tried both a Mac and Windows laptop.
I tried a different cable and it works fine with that, just not with the stock HTC cable.
What's going on here? Busted cable? I assume it's not a charge only cable, that wouldn't make much sense. Could it be that the cable doesn't like the USB3 ports?
are yo on modified kernel with fast charge enabled? if so, please disable it.

No, just stock rooted. As I said, other cables work fine, but not the stock HTC cable, so it is the cable, not the tablet or the computers/drivers, etc.

Just in case you haven't tried this...When connected to your computer, tap on the USB notification on your Nexus. You will then get more options, one of which is "Transfer Files".

I know. It makes no difference, the tablet simply doesn't show up. As I said above, I know how to use other cables and they work And yes, not a fan that M defaults to charging only every time and have to manually put it in MTP mode.

No luck needed, just a different 99c cable
Just to bring closure to this thread, I contacted HTC and they finally sent me a replacement charger and cable even though I only asked for the cable (not because I didn't already have a pile of USB cables around but because I was curious whether there was something wrong with the HTC cable I received with my N9 or just an incompatibility). The new cable I received works fine for both data and charging. So the cable that came in the box was bad. But to my surprise the new charger I got also works much better, it chargers faster (I have a USB dongle that I can measure the charging current with). The original charger was capable to only charge the N9 but not other devices which I found weird.
So something went really wrong with the included charger and cable. How can it be that you have both a bad charger and cable in the same box? I can see one being bad, but both? Makes me wonder what I should expect from the tablet itself ... Doesn't look like quality is top priority at HTC, no wonder the company is not doing well at all.
