Hi, I'm new in this root stuff, soo I need some help.
A couple weeks ago my Moto X4 fell in sand, than I charged it and it caused a short circuit. I sent the phone to a repair assistent where the charging port was replaced 4 times and all they got was a little bit of charge when connected, and just seconds after, the phone stops charging. The phone screen looks like it still charging, but in the measurer connected to the charger, shows that's not.
Isn't that looking like a software issue? The phone has a unnoficial Lineage ROM installed, but it was working properly before the accident. There's any connection between this two factors? thx

Too bad that last thursday I used the charger from a kit similar to this (link found in the forum 3 months ago).
(h**p://w*w.befr.ebay.be/itm/Dock-Sync-Cradle-USB-Charger-For-Samsung-I9100-Galaxy-S2-II-Plug-/260876977248?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item3cbd7ac460), directly (without the cradle)
It was the first time I use the power adapter directly to recharge my phone.
And since thursday my phone detects unexpectedly usb connection (and says I ave to close all aplications to use with Kies etc...).
I suppose it is no coincidence and that this fu***** charger damaged a capacitor or another electronic component of this kind inside my phone!?
What do you think ?
What can I do? Send it using warranty? Disable USB detection (how?)?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
Edit: Now the phone is not recognized when I connect it to computer (usb) or it starts the car mode!!!
A lot of people have this. Try brushing the usb connector on the bottom of your phone using a CLEAN and DRY toothbrush.
I had this problem, this fixed it for me ever since. Also bending the connector a TINY bit to the middle of the hole may help. But watch out, as it's horribly thin.
Two connectors are bent because of your new charger, or dust is causing the problem.
Thanks for this first answer! But...
Three others things (I've cleaned the connector as you said to):
The screen lights up by itself, too! And 9 times out of 5 when I press the power button (in order to lock and switch off screen) the phone just freeze and the only way to get it back again is to remove/replace battery!
By the way the battery drains faster than usual!
Do you still think it's only a matter of dust/connector (just asking but strange coincidence...)!?
Hello I have exactly the same problem since 2 days first it started thinking its connected to the USB, second thing is it wakes up soon after you have put it down and if you press the power button it freezes I have tried it more than 50 times and it freezes every time (when its connected to the charger only froze once) and today when i try to connect it to the USB nothing happens.I have tried Hard Reset , restore to a stable setup with CWM but it wont help. This happened when I got home after I was 2 hours outside working and it was very cold and moist but I only had the phone outside my pocket for 1 - 2 minutes to make a call and some very tiny drops got on the screen.I regret taking it with me if I only knew that was going to happen. One other thing I had an App to track the battery state and now when the phone thinks its connected yo USB but its not the program says my battery is over voltaged. What happened with your phone . Can someone help
...more like faking, to be more specific.
Hi,
I use Asus Zenfone 5 sincesince almost one year, and I really love it. But since I tried to charge it with the unknown charger I found in the rented car (phone went off right after), the LED indicator keeps lighting and phone acts like it's on charge, whenever it's plugged or not. Do you have any idea how to make it work normally? It's kinda annoying.
The phone is rooted. Recently I replace the screen by myself, cause I broke it. I cleaned the MicroUSB port with a toothpick, didn't help.
Any ideas guys?
Hello all,
Recently I got a problem with my phone. A couple of weeks ago it started displaying charging slowly when connecting it to the power supply. In these cases charging takes hours to charge the phone completely, approximately 5 hours. Few times it says charging fast, and then it charges in about 2 hours. At the beginning I got the impression that it has something to do with the angle I plug in the cable, but it's mainly random.
Now I'm a bit afraid the phone is broken. I've already tested different power supplies, even the original one but it didn't change a thing.
I also tried using cm13 and the current oxygen, no difference in behavior. I even installed a different kernel, without success.
Do you have any idea what's causing the problem or if there's anything I could try?
Thank you!
@StarFishes82 maybe there's some lint or crud stuck up in the port. Use a toothpick and gently sweep inside.

I have experienced that different cables have different charging rate. I only can recommend to use the original cable or some better quality one which can handle 2A, but I assume you are using the original.
I can feel that since I am experiencing same problem. My phone is not detected on computers too. It isn't detecting on my Mac. tried on Windows machine too and unrecognised/Corrupted device connected message popped up. For now, I have flashed Boeffla Kernel (OxygenOS 2.2.0-X) and using its app(Boeffla-Config V2) to increase charge rate(Not recommended, phone heats a lot if you charge and use phone same time). My phone is charging in expected time but this is not permanent solution for this problem. I am taking my device to service center this weekend and recommending you same. Hope they cover this issue in warranty.
Just wanted to give some feedback.
I tried everything mentioned above, without solving the issue. The physical port is clean, I tried different cables, finally I contacted the support. I have to send them the phone and they are gonna repair it. So bad luck because I have to find a temp phone...
Hello Dear,
I have encountered the same problem as you today, but my phone is Sony Xperia Z2
Same problem exactly.
Charging Slowly (5 hours until full)!
What to do? Is there any fast workaround? I'm afraid the warranty is gone, can I fix it in any store?
Hi everyone, I got a poco f1 from a friend. He used it quite normally. The cellphone was off for about a month - it didn't work. After a month I tried to start it however unsuccessfully, poco f1 is dead, I tried to charge it but it can't. What could be a malfunction? Help if you know and thank you very much
First, try using a different charging cable and brick. If it doesn't charge, Check if it can be read using a computer or laptop. If it still doesn't work, then the issue may be the charging port. If that's the case, if you are still covered by warranty, then go to xiaomi store. If not covered, go to a proper technician.
Btw if the device can be read on a computer, then it may just be a boot issue. Just flash again.
Does the white charging led light up when it's on charge?
If not, have you tried leaving it on charge for an extended period?
I've had difficulties with phones in the past after batteries have fullly discharged - eg the Moto G5 had some battery protection "feature" that stopped it starting up if it thought the battery was fully discharged - it was a bit over sensitive so would sometimes assume the phone was fully discharged when it wasn't
Try leaving it on charge for 24 hours or so then holding down the power button for for at least 20 seconds with it still on charge
If you have no luck and the warranty is out, get to a repair shop (or disconnect and reconnect the battery if you're confident to open it up - for a while I was getting sporadic shutdowns with my F1, following which it wouldn't take any charge, the battery light staying off when plugged in. This was all fixed by tightening the screws securing the black motherboard plate, the cover which retains all the connectors - not sure why but it seemed something, I suspect the antenna connection, had come loose. Since doing this about 5 months ago I've had no further shutdowns and my phone is usable again, having been completely unreliable before)
One trick that worked on some old Nokia phones was to charge it plugged to a computer instead of plugged to a charger - but as said elsewhere, if the battery is completely dead, YMMV.
Also, try to press and hold the power button and while doing that, plug the phone to the charger and then release the power button.

I guess your battery is dead
I have same issue, however I think my one is a motherboard charging IC issue. Does anyone know a way I can get it cheap from India, as I’m in the UK. India have it for around 9999 rupees which is about £10(+international shipping). I’ve ordered a charging port replacement from AliExpress to see if that solves the problem. However I don’t think that will work. No idea how my motherboard got damaged in the first place. I replaced a cracked screen myself and the phone was working fine for a few weeks, then it stopped charging all of a sudden. My PC also detects it/can access files doesn’t charge it. A new battery powered powered on the phone but again didn’t charge. Tried different adapters and cables too. Any experts out there know whether this is a motherboard issue or just a charging port issue?
If the phone is OFF for a month, then it is probable that the battery has gone down to a point that the BMS has shut it down. The BMS won't allow you to charge the battery because, in its own assessment, the battery is dead. Best way to test this case is to have another Pocophone with a good battery (or just a new battery altogether), detach the cable from that and test on yours. This may or may not work but this is one of the easiest to test and a new battery is easy to acquire.

Before you do that, just try leaving it in charge for 24hrs as suggested above, though it does look rather as if the OP has nicked off so won't be using any of these sage words!

Hello People,
I have started facing this weird problem with my Mi A3 yesterday that I only bought in June.
The problem is the phone does not charge. When connected the charger, it shows "Charging Slowly" and the battery percentage stays as it is. It has been plugged in for 8 hours now with no change in the battery percentage.
Ampere shows a charging current of 70mA while the same charger & cable on my wife's OnePlus shows 1800mA current. So it's not the charger! :crying:
I have tried a hard reset, I have tried 4 different charger & USB combinations, NOTHING WORKED.
Any help around this will be greatly appreciated!
I will be set back with 15K if I loose this phone
What about the charger in the box? Doesn't that work?
Sounds like a hardware problem to me. Try going to the customer care
Thank you for a quick response!
None of the chargers are working. I've tried stock, OnePlus Dash, Moto Turbo, Samsung, everything.
I guess, service center is the only thing that can help.
Update - Even when it is plugged in, it keeps discharging.:crying:
Sadly, service center is closed, I'm from Pune and the city is in a lockdown till tomorrow.
Update - After a lot of struggle to not to reset my phone and an extensive research, I have wiped my phone clean and viola!
The charging works, it still charges slowly, but that's not as slow it was earlier.
I remember it seeing on screen 8 days untill full charge!
Now it's 6 hours to full charge, even with a turbo charger, 15W.
I will keep digging and posting the updates here.
Thanks
Charging too slow... battery draining out fast
I am facing same issue with my mi A3 since yesterday. It is taking 8 hours for my phone to get fully charged also battery is draining out too fast. Seems like this issue arrived with July security update. Even I tried hard reset and several other chargers but issue still persists. Hope that Mi sends out bug fix soon.
Resolved!
I had to visit the service center within a month of purchase due to the above mentioned issues.
Apparently some electronic failure caused the connector to fail and stopped the phone getting charged up.
My device is under warranty and thanks to that, got the faulty parts replaced for free and within 2 hours.
Which hardware parts did they get to replace??, Also facing the same issue

Hey!
Sorry about the late response!!!
They changed the charging port, as my device was in warranty, they did not charge anything!!
