Hi all
I'm getting a small arrow flashing within the battery icon and last night the handset wouldn't charge with the supplied adapter (or a Samsung s8 charger).
Any help?
O.
I have encountered this issue. Just make sure u remove and replug it so that the quick charge icon is displayed on the battery.

Power down and see if there's any lint from your pocket stuck in the USB-C port.

Charges from a cable into standard USB socket.

USB-C socket in the phone. There might be something stuck in it.
So quick charge is working but still a right pointing arrow flash every half a second within the battery icon??? Now a little more intermittent.

I have the same issue. It's causing a huge battery drain! Were you able to resolve the issue?
I have already tried cleaning it with a brush.

Hi there,
I noticed that every fortnight or so, my battery would stop charging at all. Does anyone know the reasons for this? For example, I always leave my phone charging at night when i go to sleep. Sometimes, when i wake up in the morning, i discover that the battery has not charged at all, and i am left with about 13% to last me throughout the day.
This is most often caused by the cable. The best option in such cases is to buy a new one. Don't worry, they are cheap, and many phones have the exact same cable, you may even have another one at home.
And if you don't remove the picture from your signature, a moderator will do it for you, you may even get banned.

Are you using the wall charger or is the cable plugged into a computer?
Most operating systems have power saving features that will turn off USB ports when not in use (for example, when your phone isn't pushing data).
If it's a wall charger, check for any buzzing while it's plugged in. This could indicate a defective charger. Though, like the cable, the charger itself isn't all that expensive, either.

Its a wall charger, the default one which comes with the O1

A healthy charger should make a high-pitched squeal when you put your ear to it. If it's defective, it'll sound like a lower-pitched buzzing or a humming.
A quick way to rule out the battery and phone would be to try charging it with another USB device and see if it charges regularly.
Luckily, the batteries for the O1 are cheap and abundant, and the charger can be had from anywhere.
My phone is having a problem with charging. The able has to be a certain way in order for it to catch the charge but i noticed the hooks aren't springing back up.

Dont know what your talking about, but order an anker charger and batteries, cost me 27 bucks for 2 with charger, delivered. Youll never have to plug your phone in again.

On the USB cord their are these little anchor like hooks that keep the cord in place when you plug it in.
Try using a different cable and see if it makes any difference.
I actually had the exact same problem with my Desire. I fixed it by either plugging the cord in and the setting something under it to prop the cord up or replace the cord. Replacing it definitely helped.

I am curious how long you had your phone before your cable zonked out.

I was under impression that the charging cradle is supposed to charge the watch as soon as it's plugged in. What's happening now is when the cradle is on the watch, nothing happens; but as soon as I plug the cable in, it starts charging.
Am I doing something wrong?
These are both the watch and cradle pins.
Wait a minute..... Is this the original cradle? I bought this watch used - did I get duped?
Can someone with Gear S take a picture of their cradle back, please?

My watch wouldn't charge with the cradle on unless the cradle itself was plugged into the outlet.

Yep, that's what I was afraid of. Thanks for confirmation.
Yepp. Mine also has some writings on the back with serial no etc.
Probably someone broke the original one and this one is a fake one for 5$ - I just bought one like that on ebay as I broke mine
Original has a Led on the side : blue/red/green depend on the charge level. When the cradle is charged led is blue and red when it is empty. Green when the ..... do not remember, must see the notice

CQFD ! it is only a cheap charger from chinese seller I have also one like this if my original broke.
Original cradle has also a tiny button (bottom of the dock) to see the charge when we push it, it light on the led.
I also have installed cyanogenmod 12.1 and found the issue that charging cradle is not charging gear s unless connected with charger. Also found that charging time has increased so much than earlier. Please help if you have found out some solution.

Hello All,
Wondering if anyone knows of a good Right Angle Type C cable. Preferably the Type C is the right angle and the normal USB can be straight and 6FT in length.
Looks like the PZOZ has both Wired and Magnetic available in 90° cables. I have never used them, no endorsement given.
If you want something that can be gotten from Amazon, I have used these and have no complaints

Those are perfect. I was looking at those at the same time I made this post and placed them in my cart for later. LOL
Thanks!
I use the PZOZ magenetic ones and they work great! Only downside is the USB-C connector is about twice as thick as the older connectors which pops out quite a bit.

As far as I can tell, it does work. I haven't really tested it out as the battery has been pretty good so far. Sorry I cannot give you a full answer to that.

Oh? Now I know. In that case, then yes, there is a lightning symbol on the battery when I'm charging. I'm using it with my power extension (LDNIO SK3661) which supports dash charging too.

Okay, I'm a doofus, my last OnePlus was the One, and I wasn't quite sure how to differentiate the dash charge.
To clarify, no, the cable does not actually support dash charge in my test, I just tried it with the original cable, and it seems like my power extension does not support it either, the Qualcomm QC and stuff, idk.

I ran my phone down to 8%, and stuck the plug in at 6:45pm, shot up by 20% (28%) within half an hour an another 30% (58%) by 7:50pm. That's around 50% in an hour thereabouts? Hope this helps!
Hey
So I know this kinda has been asked before but not exactly like what Im experiencing!
My original turbo charger broke after 3 years and I got another one off ebay and i think it was fake or something and when i left it charging overnight, the next morning i found out that it screwed up my usb charging port and now its not working/detecting any cable/charger anymore. So I figured i'd use a wireless charger so I got this model - https://www.ugreen.com/product/1327-en.html - and when i place it on top of it, blue light is turned on and battery lightning bolt icon on nexus 6 appears but it doesnt charge and im keep losing battery as if i was using it normally! any ideas? -- Nexus 6 7.1 rom, rooted and franco kernel.
Thanks
If you know someone else with a Nexus 6 you could test if the charger is compatible with Nexus 6.
But actually I think your el cheapo charger fried your charging electronic.

Yeah the charging system is gone; And from what I could search on the net, looks like it's not easily repairable.
Is it possible that somehow the wireless coil cable is miss-aligned or something? I opened it up couple of times before to replace the battery and lcd. And this is the second wireless charger I tested with and both behave the same! Says charging but actually not charging.
anybody knows if its possible to enable wireless charging on nexus 6 refub? im suspecting mine is refub and based on what i found here, its disabled by motorola!

yeah, refurbished nexus 6. I read on couple of reddits that motorola might have disabled them.
I opened up the phone, tried to re-aligned the coil, still the same. the charging bolt icon appears but when i go to Battery Settings, its says "Not Charging". this is super weird. i dunno what else to try.

I think you need to reallign the cable with the 4 contact landing zones. The position of the coil is not that important.
But wireless and USB charging are both power sources for the same charger chip. If this chip is fried you probably can't charge at all.

hm... you're mentioning a very good point. i opened it several times and aligned the cable, even added some tape to hold it in place. i guess its the chip since the wireless charger's blue led turns on to indicate device detected and charging but Android menu says not charging.
