Hi Guys,
First of all appologies if this is the wrong section.Well my phone is acting wierd it charges when connected to pc but doesnt charge when connected to the wall charger.
This all started a few days back when my phone rapidly was charging/loosing connectivity when connected to wall charger,the problem got solved automatically in a few days.
Now the charger just doesnt charge the phone but the animation of charging can still be seen.
Just for the info i tried charging the phone with phone switched off i can see an exclamation mark besides the charging battery logo.
The confusing part is the battery charges well when connected to pc.
So i wanted to know what could be the reason before taking it to service centre as my warranty period is over.
Help appreciated.

Hi
I think my phone is a little broke,
It ran out battery last night so i put it on charge this morning.
was on charge by wall for 10 min to get some battery then swapped over to car when i was driving it turned off now when i try and charge it at work via a usb wire and cplug converter i just get the battery logo with the spining circle for a few seconds it flashes then goes off does this about 6 times then the screen just goes off and will not do anything
anyone know any fixes or has it gotta go to samsung ?
Thanks
Have you tried taking out the battery?
Please let us know if it starts working again.
tried that, its like its not getting the power it needs for thats first few seconds as the buttons at the bottom flash on then off again
With the phone OFF. Leave it charging for four hours using the supplied mains charger.
With the phone OFF do you see a picture of the battery showing how much charge you have when you plug the phone into the mains charger? How much charge does it show?
it comes up with the b attery with a circle logo init then turns off then comes back to that over and over again,
i dont have the proper charger on me just the usb wire and a plug to usb
Think getting somewhere, tried a mates battery that works fine, mates charger wont charge on my phone but will my battery in his, so i guess my micro usb port is broke :'(
So i bought my SGS3 (marble white) a few days ago and it was working perfectly fine. A few days ago my phone suddenly stopped charging. I rebooted the phone and it was charging again. Last night it again stopped charging. I again rebooted but this time it did not fix the problem.
I know that the charging port of the phone is not damaged as phone works perfectly fine when connected to a pc via usb cable and charges.
And i have never ever plugged in a non-genuine accessory to its micro usb port. Not even a dock!
Anyone with a similar problem or cure?
edit: software update fixed it in my case.

I will not say I have a cure, but I am facing the same problem, sometimes I have to reboot twice for it to start charging.
Guru's kindly look into the issue and help us, this happens in both the cases, while charging for adapter or while charging from USB.

Well not exactly, it does not happen when i plug the phone into a usb port.
It happens with the charger but, now my phone is not just recognizing the charger. I have rebooted twice, thrice but still the same problem.
I'm having a similar problem,
Charging when -
phone on
power save on - WIFI/data and most other things are off
charges 2% per hr with official charger (wall socket)
Charging when -
phone OFF!
40% per hr with official charger (wall socket)
Haven't really tried the PC USB charging yet,
But i have noticed that my battery info page says the phones been on battery for
2 days 22hrs, Very strange as i have charged and attempted to charge the phone more than 10 times in the past 24hrs.
Anyone also noticed the on battery time to be wrong?
i got this problem yesterday too , restart then its ok , weird ...
before reboot the battery icon shows charging icon but its not charging at all
does charging a battery run a software too ?
why you guys not reporting the issue in samsung mobile showroom from where you bought the mobile and take a use of your warranty card?
i bought the mobile from UAE...NO charging Problem at the moment

My mobile is no more in warranty as I have rooted my phone, will have to come back to stock rom for me to claim warranty, that's why I am waiting for someone to provide solution before I return back to stock rom for warranty claim.
Sounds like it's an issue with the charger, rather than the phone.

I thought it was best to ask here before i contact orange to report the problem, as i really didn't want to send the phone back to them if its something i could have fixed
I'm doing a factory reset and if it still has charging problems i will call orange today.
I'm facing the same problem. It started about 2 weeks ago.
I tried different chargers but no hope. the only way to charge it is via a usb port.
I had this problem once on the first day I got my phone. Worked fine though with an iphone charger with the samsung usb cable. Have any of you guys tried that?

I thanked your post accidentally while trying to quote you
The batterystats.bin file only resets itself after a full charge to 100%. That's the file that's responsible for showing all the battery usage info. So if you just keep topping up your phone without letting it charge to 100%, the battery statistics will be from the last full charge. If you see the graph you'll see it rises everytime you charge and then falls when you take it off charge. It cumulatively shows the amount of time you've used the phone on battery since the last full charge, regardless of how much you charge it in between. When you let it charge fully to 100% and unplug it, the battery stats file will be reset and give you a correct reading.

I'm having a similar issue, only difference to what you guys are having is that my SIII start charging via the normal charger if its been in USB for a bit, like 2-5 min. I tried the rebooting, nothing. it only charges through USB 1st, then it will work via the stock charger, I've tested it on another charger aswell, and the samsung car charger.
I really hope there is a quick fix, becuase I dont want to send it in for repairs, as cellphone providers in SA arent the best.
I had a similar problem with my gtab 2 10.1 but the wall charger is to blame

never experienced that. did you charged it with stock charger?
only thing I can tell you right now is that charging with a laptop with not help. that led is telling you that there is not enough power from that USB slot. most laptops will not be able to charge a RAZR.
Dear Members,
Couple of months back, my phone suddenly started showing the charging icon on top, without even being plugged into the charger. But when charger connected, the icon used to dis-appear.
It kept on making sound of connecting and dis-connecting. I formatted it. It happened quite a few times over weeks. Last month, it started showing Yellow Triangle, with exclamation mark on it i.e. not charging. And when connected to the charger, it used to shut down.
I formatted it, but no benefit. Sometimes, it was charging and at others, it was not.
I took it to the technician, but after checking, he told that it is battery problem. But, even new battery was having the same problem. Technician changed the USP pin point (USB hub) on the top of the phone, and was charging perfectly at his work-shop. But, the same thing (Yellow Triangle) popping up, and shutting down, when connected to the charger. I again took it to the same technician, but to my surprise, it was charging fine at his work-shop.
I have tried quite a few chargers (A/C and USB), but unable to charge my phone.
Please help.
Correction.

I have already bought external universal charger, and through it, I am able to charge my battery.
But that doesn't make sense, as it needs me to take my battery out of the phone, charge it, and place it back in the phone.
Hello,
Im having problem with charging My xperia z2
Recently I tried using magnetic charger for first time but it wasn't charging at all and phone started getting more heat so I removed it and got back to USB normal charging but now its not working as usual... when I connect usb charger phone showing charging symbol and red light on but its not charging at all, turned off phone and tried charging while phone off still same ..getting red light on and charging bar in the middle of screen and phone stuck on same percentage and goes down slowly even it keeps screen on charging bar after I unplug the charger !?!
I tried hard reset using power button and vol+ afew times some of the tries worked and phone charged normally but after i plug the usb charger again problem gets back ... so i keep resetting phone many times till i get lucky and charge normally
Also tried factory reset and flashing new stock ... still same
I don't know but i have feel that magnetic port causing problems for battery even i didn't use magnetic charger again
and i read somewhere it might be possible to disable magnetic port?
any idea?
help would be appreciated
any help?
When you connected the magnetic charger first time, have you connected it in the correct way? If it is connected upside down, it ll cause serious issues..
LikeTh3DON said, you probably connected your magnetic charger in the wrong side. I've done the same with my D6503, and I have the same issue. I already looked to change the battery, nothing change, it's a chip on the motherboard I think.
Look on that thread, some users have the same issue, no solution so far:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2745786&page=3
If you can, use sony's usb cable and charger, or a usb port on your laptop, don't know if it's related, but my phone charge easier with those. If it's the same issue than mine, your phone will charge to 85-90% and the screen will constantly goes on. When it happen unplug your phone or it will heat a lot without charging.
Same thing accidently done with me.now phone dsnt charging with megnatic cable(charging on and off regularly) nd with USB its have same problem when battery % reaches above 90.
Please give me solution..
Is that repair is available for this issue?

Hey,
I haven't necessarily got a solution for your problem but thought I can offer you my opinion. I've used solely the magnetic charger for nearly a year as my USB port has clean snapped off from my logic board. The whole time I've not had an issue, the only time the device heats is during intensive games or/whilst charging.
I know that people have had issues with the magnetic charging port in the past, it's a relatively easy fix, however, will involve opening the device and stripping out a lot of the parts to get to the ribbon.... up to you what you want to do.
Guess I should ask the obvious, have you tried different cabled/ chargers etc?? the fault could potentially lie with the cables if they've been damaged/frayed.
