Hello Edgers
As it says in the title, my GS6 edge is charging slowly after the last update.
It says fast charging, but it takes almost 3 hours to full.
Although it used to take 1 - 2 hours maximum to full.
-it's charging now - > reached 80% and it says 35m untill full -
35 minute at 80%!!! :crying::crying:
I tried another charger and it has the same problem. so either I have 2 broken chargers or the problem is in the phone.
Any ideas? or is it a common problem in charging after the update?

I tried blowing in it, but no result.
I also tried putting the phone into safe mode to make sure that it's not because of any app I installed but I also got no results.

only other thing would be usbs getting wore out i guess it could be a firmware thing but unlikely only other option would be to reflash orig firmware

It could be the battery wearing down. I had same problem on my G925F. Afyer having the battery replaced the problem was fixed. Possibility

I have the same issue, also not allways is detecting the Fast Charger.
As a workaround I let it charging slow for some seconds replug the cable and voila! Fast charging in the correct time...
It seems that is a common issue after Nougat update in a large number of devices prior to S8... (If you search in google you could see it)
The kernel is the culprit to choose the method of charge, and for whatever reason is not choosing/doing correctly...
Some people say that wiping the system cache from recovery helps (not my case)

hello
now the phone is in a boot loop, what i've tried so far
-charging battry for 12 hrs
-hard rest
-flashing different roms
-trying a different battery
-removing sd card when booting
no luck
any suggestions?
thx
Few questions for you here:
First off, Are you in a boot loop with xdandroid or WinMo. If its WinMo check below. If it's Xdandroid try deleting data.img, and starting over.
1.. Did you task 29 before flashing the other roms.
2.. Are you charging from a usb, or wall charger. If you're using a usb, that very well may be part of the problem. Use a wall charger. This has been a known issue for these boot loop situations.
You also may have bad blocks, or another hardware issue. I seriously doubt that though.

Is this the boot loop where the phone starts to boot, and then within a few seconds it runs out of power and turns off, and then after a few seconds of charging starts to boot again and repeated infinitely?
If so, this can be cleared by leaving the battery out of your phone for a long time. Not exactly so sure how long it needs to be, but I did it for a day or two and that worked for me. There is some sort of memory chip in the battery that needs to get cleared out to prevent the phone from trying to start automatically.

When this happened to me what I did was connect it to a car charger for 20 mins or so then that gave it enough power to work from the wall. Idk y but it worked both times

I had the same problem 3 months ago.
After I tried much things to solve it, and that things didn't work, I send my TP2 back for garantue. That was the only way for me to fix it.
Good luck.

welcome and i dont why it did, maybe it had more power than a standard adapter but it worked flawlessly
External battery charger
This happened to me. The only solution was to buy an external battery charger. I found a universal li-ion charger at the local department store that could be adjusted to charge any brick style li-ion battery.

like i said i dont why it works but it does for some reason. im guessing the power supplied by the car adapter is greater than a standard wall one. also this dead battery issue just started resently for me so i dont know if its the kernel or system ext2
ya the car charger gives you 2 amps while the wall charger gives 1 amp, i thought that this only affect the charging time
I am glad you you were able to get it going. This happens fairly often for me when I let the battery get too low.
The stock charger just doesn't put out enough current. I switched to using my old iGo universal charger. I have tips for all of the family phones (plus a y adapter to charge 2 at once. I can charge fast at home or in the car, and it seems to be able to provide enough juice to keep the phone going even when tethering, which the stock charger can't.

yes, that really sucks, i was about getting a new phone but luckily it worked...
Since the 5.0.2 update (First with the .690 generic baltic version and now the US .726 version) charging has become nothing short of enigmatic.
Almost every night when I charge it, I wake up to between 75 and 90% battery, with the charging LED completely off and no charging occurring. For some reason, twice (one randomly and one the night after updating to .726) it charged fully and normally showing the green LED in the morning, but I cannot for the life of me figure out what I did differently.
This isn't a make or break issue since I still get 3+ hours of screen on time and a full day's use, but my OCD wants to kill everything because of it. I've tried downgrading to 4.4.4 (/314 version I believe) and it worked perfectly and charging was normal each time I tried.
If I try replugging the cable in after it has stopped, the LED flashes on and off and the charging notification does as well rapidly. The phone begins to heat up and any open apps begin to "refresh" as if they've been reloaded from memory.
Any help would be appreciated, since I've already tried draining to 0 and recharging. I haven't seen any other issue like this on the internet at all, and I've been searching since day 2 of the 5.0.2 update.

I have on multiple firmware versions, even reverting back to the original out of the box one (4.4.2).
So far, 5.0.2 is the only firmware that gives this issue (although 4.4.2 had completely separate overheating issues unrelated to charging)
what charging method u use? magnetic or just a normal usb charging? Have you try with another charger/plug/usb cable? And one more thing, try clean install to avoid any bug from previous rom. I prefer using flashtool. :good:

I've tried both magnetic as well as usb, same results.
I've tried every combination of cables and wall plugs that I can, still no dice.
And I tried a clean install, nothing changed. Honestly it feels exactly like a firmware specific bug, yet no other person has had this problem. I think I'll just end up dealing with it until 5.1 comes out for the Z2.
try to completely discharge the battery, just keep using it until it completely dies, and chage it a full charge with a good charger and see

That was the first thing I tried, no change.
Same here! Netherlands non-brand version, I have issued a repair with sony. But I think it is a software bug.
why don't you back up your data and do a complete wipe and flash a 4.4.4 ftf, if it doesn't help then it's your battery pack started acting up, I have come across multiple defect batteries this week.

As stated before, I've done complete wipes already (I don't keep much on local storage so backing up important files is simple) and 4.4.4 has never had this issue. 5.0.2 is the only ftf that gives this issue, whether it's a clean wipe install or done as an "update" so to speak.
For now, you'd better stick to 4.4.4 as there is nothing special about 5.0.2, and also 4.4.4 is a perfect, bug free FW

Tried to downgrade back to 4.4.4 (the same version that had no issues before) and ended up seeing the exact same issue.
Still not sure of the cause, because once every now and then it DOES decide to charge to 100% without issue, but I have a free extended warranty through my work (we sell phones lol) so I'll just deal with it until it's unbearable and get it "fixed" (we mostly just get a new device).
Hi, my 10 pro is suddenly charging extremely slow, 10% per hour maybe. Has any of you run into this as well?
Booted a few times, same.
Can't find anything similar here either.
Suggestions appreciated except it's broken

It's broken!
Sorry, couldn't resist.
Try the obvious...
Try a different cable
Try a different charger
Check for running apps
Check built-in (from Settings) battery usage to see where the energy's going
It's possible that your battery's gone pear-shaped and the 'phone is trying to be easy on it, but highly doubtful.
It's also possible (given the recent popularity in recent months) that you've been infected with a cryptocurrency mining trojan, which is sucking the charge out almost as fast as your charger can feed it in.
I doubt the latter at its charging equally slow when switched off. Tried all the rest already.
Another thing, first it stopped charging at 50%, was hovering around that.
After a few reboots is now staying around 60.
Factory reset may fix this but I'm on vacation with no options to backup 90gb of data...

I seem to remember a problem similar to this waaaay back in the Gingerbread days, though people only experienced it after improperly flashing custom ROMs. It was something to do with how Android kept a track of battery levels, and (as far as I can remember) the solution was to go into recovery and reset the battery stats.
Definitely not the sort of thing that should be happening in the middle of normal use though, and I doubt you would've been re-flashing ROMs while you're away.

USB-C to USB-A adaptor + 128Gb flash drive?

Well, it was the cable. I used a different one and viola, charged to 100%. So never leave home with only one!

Me too :], The mate 9 was outstanding the whole year and I expect nothing less from the 10 pro!
Actually, I think it's the little usb to usb c converter, Not the cable. I tried 3 now and none of them charge...
Had the BLA-09 8.0.0.148 (C432) and noticed that I seems all my super charger are not that super anymore.. Neither my huawei car super charger nor the provided oem supercharger show up as supercharging when plugging in. Anybody else having that issue?
Same firmware here and Super Charge is still active (Huawei original charger). Do you use the original provided USB cable ?
The superscharge seems to swich on for a while when plugging in, but after a short time (minute, perhaps a few) it switches to normal charge in car and on charger. Also happened on previous firmware.
yep both times it's original Huawei cable. (though I should mention that usb c seems to lose it's catch and pops out easily since a few days)

To prevent overheating the phone may charge slower (like when you use it for gaming and charge it the same time, it's very slow)
It would still display it as supercharging though

A guy on the italian forums is reporting the same after updating to B148!
I would try with a factory reset and eventually a new cable.

I experienced this multiple times with my device and it will come back, cache wiping has probably not fixed your problem but time has.
I will bring my phone to a service center tomorrow, I'm sick of this happening over and over.
If this happens once, chances are high it will happen again (and yes, I wiped cache multiple times).
Update to this:
I visited a Huawei service center today and the technician told me that this happens with a lot of Mate 10 Pro devices.
What causes the problems is dust/dirt.
The technician used a metal tool first and then compressed air.
Supercharge and headphones now work again.
So, if this happens to you, you probably have to clean your port, but be careful since you could break the port.
The technician also advised me to buy some sort of dust cover for the device so that this problem doesn't happen so fast again.
Wow! I have never seen my phone explicitely says it's in supercharge mode in 5 month or so I own it! Oo
But charge was quick at 2A

I cleaned mine too now and I can certainly say that I now have much tighter sitting usb c cables. So cleaning it out is certainly the way to go, wether supercharge works or not.
Hmmm. I have had this issue too. My phone stopped supercharging but it also stopped allowing me to transfer data with a cable to my computer (or to my drone remote control). I cleaned it alot, but no effect. I ordered a new port assembly and replaced it. Now, it will supercharge for about a minute, but then it goes back into normal charging mode. While looking in the battery app, it would fluctuate between charging modes until deciding to charge normal. I've wiped the cache, but still doesn't help. Any further input??
I'm on stock, realme ui 4.0 and april security patch.
In recent months I've struggled to get fast charge right away when I plug in the charger, but I've given it a couple of tries and always succeeded. From yesterday it's not been possible to get any fast charge. No matter how many times I've tried and retried. Any advice from the forum?

It could be an issue with the charging brick too. Try some trouble shooting by using another Fast Charger to check if your device is fast charging. Also try using your current charging brick to charge another phone with Fast Charge capabilities. By doing this you can figure out if the issue is with the Phone or the Charging Brick.
