hey guys and girls
this morning i woke up and decided i was gunna plug in my s3 because it was low on battery and i wanted to play some temple run 2. phone was on about 30 percent when i put it on charge (ac charger) and when i finished playing i returned to the home screen to find my battery on 23 percent! it recognized the charger and had the charging symbol but it wouldnt charge
i unplugged it from the ac charger and have it in my computer and its gone up a percent so is it a faulty ac?
you are not the only one having problem with charging using samsung original usb cable.
try any other charger like amazon kindle charger or blackberry charger or any other that can fit yr s3. I am sure it will work for u.
my phone also does not charge using smasung cable so I use kindle charger and it charges my phone very fast. hope this helps u.

Hey guys i just wanted to knw if ur phone lasts the same when charging using the laptop and using the wall charger bcoz mine is nearly 60% ie. lasts 40% less when i charge using wall charger.
Does anybody else is facing this too ??
That's an interesting observation, ill have too check. Though the laptop would be a slow charge and a cleaner regulated current due to the power regulator in the laptop's charger

yeah laptop charging is nearly half or less than half speed of wall charging ..
there is no difference between AC or USB power from a PC, but charging it with a PC takes a lot more time, because your USB port has not the power/current
i usually always use the wall charger it came with. But i remember that sometimes when i use any other charger it either wont even recognize the cable or not charge at all specially car chargers
When I connect wall charger to my galaxy i9100 it notify that charger is connected and charging indicator also tells that it is charging BUT it is NOT charging. THe battery level's going down as the time passed ....
But strangely when I connect it to my PC via USB cable it actually starts charging ...
There's nothing really running as some of u might be thinkin that an app might be using high CPU while charging ... but it is not the case as it is charging fine when connected to PC.
I think my wall charger is faulty... but if it is then why it shows charging when connected though its NOT charging the battery at all?
Any help???

Hello
is it normal that my s3 doesnt charge while plugged in AC while playing games and music ???
my battery goes low if playing games during charging !!!
my friends s3 charge normally in this same condition !
can someone please tell me why is this happening
If you are not using the original charger i think is normal, (it happens to me too)
for example I am using the MHL adaptor connected to the tv usb conection, it works fine but the battery goes down at low rate but it does not charge never.
Are you using the original adaptor and usb cable?
That could be normal. Because some games use lots of juice, sometimes nearly 1000mA or more and thats the charging capacity of AC adapter. So it's normal if your phone does not show much charging while you play game.
You should not worry if your phone charge normally say 2-3 hours on AC without phone usage.

It may be problems if you are using the original charger provided by samsung.
thanks for your help and yes im using the original charger !
My friend is not having this issue i dont know why but i think its just me :S
ill try a different charger and see if that helps !
Alright I have a weird problem my fast charge / Quick charge is no longer working anymore it only says charging . I have checked to see if it was the charging adapter and cable and both of them are fine because they were fast charging my Note 4. Only 3 things I can think of that might be the problem well 4
1. The charging port is faulty and needs replaced
2. The battery is faulty
3. The processor is messed up but unlikely because it is working fine
4. Something in the system is keeping it from fast charging/ Quick charge
Does anyone have a idea what might be wrong with it ? My phone will normal charge fine it just will not fast charge anymore
Thanks
Might be the cable. Have you triend a different one?
The Charger needs to communicate with the phone before it switches to fast charging mode. If your cable is broken and communication is not possible it will not fast charge.
This is the reason a charge on cable (without the two data wires) will never work for fast charge.

like I said in the above post it is not the cable and I have tried multiple ones still does not work but when I use the same lg fast charge adapter and cable on my galaxy note 4 it fast charge and even when in use the Samsung fast charge and adapter on my v10 does not work but does work on the note 4.
This happens to me too...I just unplug charger from wall and back in, after that it's all good. I think in my case problem is because charger stays in wall non-stop.

I have tried that still no luck at all I am at a lost as what it could be.
Fast charge
I have had the same problem. At first I replaced the battery didn't help so I ordered a new OEM charger. It worked until tonight. I thought I'll give it a little smack on the table. I plugged it back up and now it fast charges just fine. I'm going to try the same on the other charger.

you can check this:
1. Make sure your device is fresh, not too hot because the thermal sensors inside the phone if detect the battery too hot, the charger dont activate fast charging.
2. Make sure the cable you use is good enough, i mean not so flimsy or thinner, it must be fatter because the current fast charge use.
3. If that i say above is right then plug the fast charge into the socket and plug it to your phone, if with in 10 seconds the round circle of fast charging dont appear on battery icon then unplug the charger and plug it again until it ativate fast charging.
its a common problem i have too,, i use the original charger and cable who came with the phone and even the phone are cooler and so on sometimes fast charge dont ativate at first attemp.
As the title states my battery mod fails to charge on charges other than turbo charger, has anyone had luck with working with a different charger?
Mine charges fine on a generic USB-C charger. It's obviously slower, but it works.
I thought I was having the same problem a couple of days ago. It looked like the phone was only charging and the Incipio power pack wasn't. The internal phone battery reached 100% but the mod was showing 0%. I decided to just leave it and surely enough it was charging, just really really slowly. I was using a normal portable charger with a USB-C cable as I was away from home. It takes a very long time to charge both using this setup. Then again, I've found that the battery pack in general takes a long time to charge in comparison to the phone even when using the supplied turbo charger.

I wonder if anyone else has this issue? I have the Tumi power pack wireless charging battery mod and it charges extremely. I'm using the stock 30w Turbo charger that came with the phone. I loaded up Amphere and the rate I was getting was 290 mah.
I've noticed that while using the phone while charging, when the phone is @100 & [email protected], every time the phone drops to 99 it stops charging the pack and then charges the phone. So, I will just pop the battery on a wireless charger or not use my phone while charging the battery. I have this cool qi/qc3.0 hub that makes charging my phone AND battery a breeze, so that's what I will often do.
Hello I have Moto Z and the Incipio power. It was charging before with phone with the type c charger which come with box but now I don't know the reason the Incipio doesn't charge !! when connect the Incipio give me notification with 97% and after 3 sec it is 0% and not charging from the power or charging the phone same also when power off the phone !! Could you please advise?
Using the official turbocharger provided by Motorola, the Battery pack and the phone battery will both charge at the same time. I have noticed using a generic charger/USB-C cable via the PC to charge, it charges the phone battery first and then only will charge the battery pack (once the phone reaches 100%). That is my experience...
