Same thing

But you get the Popup on connection, and the Charging Notification on the Status bar as well?
EDIT: Try this, Turn off your phone, Remove the battery, SIM, SDCard (ie: everything), Place for 10-15 minutes, then reassemble your phone and try again

It decreased again? Or stayed static? Remember - Charging (even 1%) takes time.
It seems something is broken. :/

Got another MicroUSB Cable? Try with that. If it still doesn't work, I would assume it to be a hardware issue.

I (probably) have the same problem.
Got an HTC Wildfire a few days ago. Didn't come with the original charger & cable.
The charger I got is 500mA. Problem is, it's barely charging and sometimes even discharging (while it's plugged in)
I've installed a couple of widgets to look into it (Battery Mix & CurrentWidget)
Battery Mix clearly shows the phone discharging while plugged in (as a graph), CurrentWidget says it's getting under 50mA (ranging from 15-45)
Right now it's off & charging. The battery was around 13% when I switched it off. Waited about 30 min, then turned it back on, it was at 42%.
I'm trying to exhaust all other options before I go out and get new hardware.
I'm wondering why the charger is only giving it <50mA and wondering if the problem lies with it, the battery, the cable or the phone itself.

Charging Battery Problem HTC

I've tried and installed a few ROM's from this website and since today I can't seem to charge my HTC when the battery is running low.
Whenever i put it on Charge on the cable it won't show the charging icon on my phone and it doens't gain any energy.
This is what happens:
When i plug my phone to adapter the "ring" on the HTC touch diamond glows 3(!) times which means it charges it for aslong the ring glows (3 times). But after 3 glows it doens't glow anymore and which means it stops charging.
Also when the device is OFF and it stops charging after 3 times the ring glows (about 10 secs?) i can press the ON button and it charges it again for 10 seconds. The funny thing is that it also re-starts itself automatically every like .. 1-2 minutes and shuts off again.
Does anyone know why this happens? Please help
Thanks
have you tried replacing the cable, cradle or even the adapter? Check their contacts or pins carefully! Maybe you got dust particles in there.
Oh, does it get charged upon connection to your computer? Are you using the same cable?

No it doensn't get charged when i connect it to the computer. And yes i tried several other cables and connected them to computer and adapter but still not charging.
I really don't know what to do
hey buddy if u r using htc diamond i m sure after changing the rom u wouldnt b able to charge from pc bcoz some cooks use a tweak which disables charging through pc...do one thing download advanced config 3.3 or 3.2 then go to power management u can find a option to enable or disable charging from pc....

When the phone is turned off put it in charge then turn on your phone,go to backlight options and there should be "When device is turned on,do not charge the battery when connected to the PC" untick this then re try

Yep i done that, but my phone can't get charge from anywhere. Not from USB to PC and nor from just putting it in the adapter.
I'll tell what happens:
When i plug my phone to adapter the "ring" on the HTC touch diamond glows 3(!) times which means it charges it for aslong the ring glows (3 times). But after 3 glows it doens't glow anymore and which means it stops charging.
Also when the device is OFF and it stops charging after 3 times the ring glows (about 10 secs?) i can press the ON button and it charges it again for 10 seconds. The funny thing is that it also re-starts itself automatically every like .. 1-2 minutes and shuts off again.
It's a weird problem and I'm really stuck with this and don't know what to do. I'd prefer not paying 30$ to buy another battery if that's the problem. If anyone else has advice then PLEASE give them.

I've used short, long, medium cables, and I've also used different sort of adapters but nothing seems to work.
The only thing that COULD be it is either something wrong in the ROM or the battery.
First time i heard of this.
1) It wont charge from the adapter or the pc via usb
2) The charging led shows action for a short time then stops
When the phone is OFF it should charge regardless of what modifications have been done to the operating system since the OS is not active.
Have the phone inspected especially the mini usb port, i think its not just the battery.
It could be either the mini usb port or the battery or the charging circuit in the phone needs a part to be changed.
It looks like a hardware problem.
On the flipside, wherever you get the phone inspected bring the battery with you and see if it will charge on their universal chargers.
Most cellphone techinicians have a universal charger which will charge any battery even without the cellphone it was designed for.
See if it will fully charge and then insert it into the phone.
Now if the battery did charge fully and the phone doesnt have a hardware problem, then you can conclude that its the rom.
Go back to standard official rom from HTC and observe if its behaving normally.
But im betting there is a hardware problem.
Me either...
Sometimes i get the same problem, but i keep on trying to charge, acn then it do!!! you have to be persistent.... leave the phone pluged int AC over the night... try to remove the battery while charging... one time, it will start charging... THAT IS what happens to me... (after upgrading rom and spl)
Same Problem With my Orbit 2
I am having the same problem. Now my battery can be charged just with the universal portable charger. I take out my battery from Handset and plug it into Universal Charger. Actually my problem started after the uninstalling the Android Nand.
After that I tried different roms but problem is still there.

Need help charging problem

when i connect the normal charger to the phone, the charging light appears and the phone does not charges! on USB to laptop its ok, the phone charges , but on normal charger it does not charge...
any ideas???
I'd say the problem's most probably with the charger. Try using a different one to see it the problem still persists.
but why does the charging light is on ? and the phone says it's charging... ?

Its definitely a problem with the charger. One loose connection and it all goes hay wire!!
The light stays on because some current IS going through to the phone....
Yes, sounds like the charger.
As a side note, I have an external power pack, and if I plug it into the phone (power pack switched off), the charging icon appears - just on the DHD, not on other phones/ipods. I have learnt to live with this as a minor anomaly of the power pack, but just goes to show that the charging logic is not particularly clear

dhussa said it. The charging light might still be functioning because of some little current going through.. although that might not be enough to charge the phone.
Just try a different charger to ensure that we are thinking in the right direction. If the different charger works it'll eliminate the possibility that there's something wrong with your phone. (Although I doubt it since it is charging via USB.)
yeah...well i still hope it's a software bug :-s since a saw a similar thread and a good battery calibration might just be the cause
oh well...thx guys ...

[Q] GSM Galaxy Nexus not charging

Hi Guys,
Before I start, I have read many threads (I think all) relating to this problem and I have googled, googled and googled.
My Device:
GSM Galaxy Nexus
Problem:
It won't charge. No matter if turned on or off. The battery stays always at 0% and when taking a look at *#*#4636#*#* it says "charging".
What I have tried:
- Bought three different batteries.
- Tried two different cables, incl. the OEM one.
- Tried two different wall chargers.
- Replaced the Micro USB port.
- Wiped, reset etc. the phone.
- Tried different ROMs and Kernels. (Yes, I am desperate).
Any advice what the problem might be?
Thanks in advance!
could be the pins not making proper contract with the battery

They look all the same. Not bent, not damaged, not dirty.
hmmm that is really all I can think of..
The fact that it says charging leads me to believe it isn't the port (like most people experience)

I have plugged my phone into my computer. It says "not charging" now. This message appears after a few minutes when I turn it on. Same happens when I plug it into the wall.
Now it's getting really strange. I didn't observe this behavior before.
Before I changed the Micro USB port, the message was >always< "not charging".
Now, after the change, it says for 2 minutes "charging" and then it changes to "not charging".
Did you replace the whole USB board as well, or just the port? It sounds like the USB board is bad.

Hi lowandbehold,
No, I replaced the whole board if we mean the same. I can't post links at this time because I am a new member of XDA, but you can search for "Dock Connector Charging Port with Flex Cable For Samsung Galaxy Nexus i9250" on eBay.
UPDATE: Plugged it back into the wall. It says "charging AC" now and does NOT change to "not charging". Funnily enough, the voltage keeps dropping. From 2040 mV to 1961 mV in two minutes.
i'd say replace the device.
Unfortunately I'm having the exact same problem. I just replaced charging port literally just now and it still won't charge. It says "Charging" but it's not charging. In the Settings it says discharging.
Could it be the battery? I'm thinking of buying a new one and seeing if that works.

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? with mine it charged fine in the beginning, and then it would only charge to about 86%, and then 84%...then 80%...currently it will only charge to 14%. I can leave it plugged in for 48 hours and it says it is charging but will not go past 14%. it takes a few hours for it to charge from 0% to 14%, but then dies within 30 minutes of EXTREMELY LIGHT use.
I've tried two different batteries which both yield the same results. I have en external battery charger and can charge the battery to full (according to the light on the charger) and place it in the phone and the phone will tell me it is at 14% or 8% or something like that (which makes me believe it has nothing to do with the usb port).
I have explored everything I could think of on the software side. The problem started on Ice Cream Sandwhich, it didn't stop when it was updated to Jelly Bean, I recently rooted it and have tried a few different roms including stock roms and CM10. I tried battery calibration apps.
So far nothing has made a difference. Any Ideas?
Nope no solution has been found. I'm just selling the device (and telling them the problem, so far I'm selling it for $275 and people want it) and I'm going to buy an SIII or a One X
well, this really sucks...it seems that a few unlucky people (like me) have this charing issue...
I too changed my USB flex cable thinking that this was the cause, but nothing changed
the battery icon says charging, but the system says discharging
what a major p*** off, cuz I'm fed up of changing batteries all the time, I have 5 batteries
I hope that someone will be able to figure this one out, cuz its a real brain buster
Any update on this? My phone bought in July is also just started giving this problem. When it is on it simply will not charge. All these months I was using another charger with no issues. I have tried the following:
1. Using the stock charger
2. Bending upwards the male connector in the USB socket.
3. Removing the battery overnight
Nothing seems to work. When off, the phone seems to charge somewhat and charging icon comes on. But charging when off for about 5 hours resulted in battery showing about 50% (from 13%) but it drains very quickly. Sometimes when charging for 30 minutes (when off) and switching it on it shows 100% battery, but then still discharges very quickly. Sometimes it shows very low battery.
Also my notification LED is glowing red since about a month, even when phone is switched off. If I remove the battery and connect the charger, the LED starts glowing red - blinking, so it seems the USB port is providing power as sometimes the battery does show 50% and seems to last a bit from there.
What are my options here? I am on the latest JB OTA update which came around 14/15 Nov. In India, I will get no service from Samsung for the Nexus.
I am going to try a factory reset first and then next see if I can get another battery. And maybe I should return / cancel the Nexus 4 I ordered?
Maybe try wiping battery stats in recovery? I was having similar issues today with "not charging". I was plugged in to the wall with nothing, so I plugged into the computer... ADB enabled and device was connected as a media device. I booted recovery and wiped dalvick and battery stats, rebooted and now it is charging via usb and AC. Don't know what happened, but it worked for me. Hope it helps!
Thanks for the response. Well, I just tried draining out the battery (it took almost 2 days lol) till it would show shutdown warning soon after booting up and then removed the battery and held down the power button. I then charged it in 'off' mode for a few hours, I think overnight. I used the actual Nexus charger instead of the generic one I was using all this while. When I turned it on, there was about 40% charge showing.
There was another JB update which I managed to complete (leaving it on the charger). The phone seemed to work fine, but did not show a charging state, but suddenly the next day on its own when I just plugged in the charger, it showed the 'bolt' charging icon and since then it has been working perfectly.
Simply no clue as to how and why it started working fine. Probably the previous 14 Nov update had some bug which was resolved in the latest update or the latest update reset the battery stats or whatever.
I am more worried about my upcoming Nexus 4 which has a non-removable battery as to what I would do if something like this happens.

Phone discharging while charging

Hi, i have problem with my HTC Desire. It's discharging even when it's connected to charger. I tried to change roms, but that didn't change anything. Any suggestions?
More detail and more testing needed. Doesn't really sound like a ROM issue so changing ROM unlikely to make a difference:
- Original cable? Or tried another cable?
- Mains or usb?
- Are you doing anything on the phone when it's charging and draining?
- Does it charge while phone is off?

I tried original and some different cables and i tried them whith Usb and wall chargers. It's discharging everytime: when i do something with it or when it's just lay untouched. When phone is off, the led indicator is orange, but battery still remain uncharged. When battery reach 0%, the phone isn't turing off. Sometimes it's just start to charge for about 1 hour.
Just sounds like you need a new battery

Damn, thanks btw
Hi again, i changed the battery, but it still discharge. And i noticed that when i connect it to pc, windows says that power usage in usb is too big. Another thing is that i can't flash my hboot.
Sounds like internal hardware issue sorry
Hboot it's separate, you need to be s-off to flash a different one. You shouldn't be worried about this now though. Phone repair may be the only way
My phone likes to reboot alot and then dies around 40 or even 50% so I think I need a new battery.

[Q] battery strage behaviour

My Galaxy w doesn't charge the right way any more. As you can see from the pic... After a night plugged to a standard charger it has only 75% battery left, and it seems to be disconnecting itself from time to time. Moreover it doesn't charge when I plug it into my car's USB, that works with many other phones! Any way to fix it?

How about a new battery? Have you tried connecting it to your computer if the connection gets interrupted?
The battery is quite new actually... Same problem with the computer: after a while it stops charging and starts back after minutes
But data connection keeps working while phone stops charging?
