My charge lights have been flashing back and forth from green to orange when I am in the car. What does that mean? Cheap car charger?

Sounds like it. I would try a different one and see if it makes a difference. I bought the cheapest one I could find and I've never had that problem.

sounds to me like a bad connection somewhere
From my past experiences the orange and green flashing light means the device has reached a critical temperature and charging ability has been suspended momentarily until the device reaches a suitable temperature.

Agreed. However, I think we should email HTC on this matter... I would like to know every possible factor of why the light turns green. why it turns red. Also, I would like a change as well.. I would like it if the light didn't stay green while the phone is plugged in and I just get a message. I would like it to blink in some way like 3 fast flashes. or something like that.
Could be temp. I live in AZ. It was 102 today. I think I was charging and surfing a bit. I have never seen my OEM charger do that tho. I will swap back and see

oh after you just said that... IT IS the temp. lol. IN OTHER WORDS. keep the phone cool. can't leave it on a dash or in a car. it will overheat. It has NOTHING to do with the charger.
Keeping anything cool in Arizona, in July, is not easy! I can't walk outside with the phone for five minutes without it getting up to 100+ degrees. If its in the sun for even a minute... Forget it.
It has been over 100 for something like forty days in a row.

are you using the original charger and cable? I had a similar problem with my vibrant. It only happened with cheap tired party cable/chargers. The phone was fine.it was the touch screen that was sluggish. I suspect a stay charge or ground effecting the capacitive measurements of the screen
thus the sluggishness.

Same here. I'm using original charger. I think it's the outlet. Faulty grounding. If I will switch the outlet the problem goes away.

Interesting you mention the outlet- I have had the same experience with erratic touch screen behavior when plugged in, and have had it with other devices including non-Samsung, but it seems to be random. But it happened today and I remember I was plugged into an outlet upside down. WOnder if it in fact did mess with the grounding or something and led to the strange touch screen behavior. Will try a few times and see if I can replicate and narrow down a constant....
I have noticed it as well. After seeing your post i realized it is only when plugged into the wall.
I've had this problem over multiple phones & multiple chargers.
I have the same problem, can't even unlock the phone while charging...
Does anyone else have this issue?
I recently bought the extra battery and charger (that comes with the second batttery) and here within the last few days, I have been charging the unused battery overnight and then it turns greens sometime during the night and then in the morning when I go to put it into my phone, it boots up but states battery life at always less that 60 instead of the full 100%.
So if anyone knows as to why this may be happening, I would greatly appreciate any feedback on this issue that has me pissed.
Thanks in advance and also if somthing like this has been posted then I apologize. I searched and did not see anything along this matter.

So ur not charging battery from ur phone? Try doing that and see if it does the same thing. Is u phone rooted? If it is, than there is a possible resolition.

The external charger may be shutting off too soon. Do what Lord said.
Also please put a subject in when you start a thread like "External charged battery only shows 60%"

Its the same charger I plug into the the spare battery case thing to charge and the light stays red for a long time then it turns green as if its done charging but when inserted battery into phone and power up, its usually around 60% charged or less. But I pull charger out of the spare battery holder and plug directly into my phone and it charges to full ballery.

The battery holder like the phone has a sensor that tells it when to stop. It is working incorrectly....broken.

my epic 4g got wet to day just a good splash from the pool. i have it in rice. i tried booting and i can tell its booted up i even feel the vibration when i move my finger over where the screen look is but the screen is black with waving lines like an old tv. also the notification light doesnt come on and i dont think it was charging when i plugged in the cord. i see no red or pink in the battery compartment so i dont think the water really got in to much any help would be greatly appreciated.
Your screen is shorted out. AKA, expired, dead, deceased, zombified, or passed on. No coming back from the grave.

sorry bro you were wrong its working now just don't have charging capability and a little problem reading the sd card. you really should know what your talking about before you give someone such extreme diagnosis. and for the charging problem i bet leaving it in the rice overnight will clear it right up.
So your screen had wavy lines, but now it works and your sd card slot is having issues along with no charging capability? Between both of those, I would wonder how much longer my phone would last.

Leave it in a bag of rice with the battery out for another night.

Hey, my phone died and I put it on my charger before I left to run to the store. When I came back, the phone was RIDICULOUSLY hot and it prompted on the screen "Charging temporarily stopped due to high temperature." I unplugged the phone, cooled it off with a frozen pack of Bacon (bacon is good for ANYTHING Lol) and powered it back on and plugged it into the charger. I plugged the charger into a different socket because I'm pretty sure the socket I was in was overheating my phone. Well, that mixed with the fact that I had on an Otterbox and it was sitting on a microfiber couch Lol. I'm currently on the stock ROM over clocked to 1.7

GHz and such. My question is this: has anyone else experienced this and could it have caused permanent damage? Everything seems to be fine now and my battery temp is at a cool 91.7°.

Well then..just run it like you stole it! It's happened to a few people but I haven't heard if its caused long term effects. The otterbox shouldn't contribute much to the heat.

Hello peeps, I was just wondering how can a phone charge on its own?? Im surprised never seen this happen. my brother showed me hes pre paid cricket phone that it was charging without being plugged in. Proof in the video I took. I know its out of subject but was just wondering anyone have an explanation? Was at 50% and now 63% all on its own? Watch "Phone chargine by itself?" ...h?v=oRkCQ0ecG-s&feature=youtube_gdata_player

OK what kind of phone is it and what battery cover is on it. It definitely not gonna charge by itself
TWEAKED 2.0 ELEMENT V3.0 NOTE 3
My phone has done that if I pull it off the charger too fast....drains the battery like crazy
though it IS an ancient phone compared to 2012-2013 gear (Xperia Play R800x)
Is it one of those fake display apps? My brother had one that would show screen being used as solar panel, more light would show more charging current, all fake to amuse others. Or really strong electromagnetic field capable of inducing electricity even from larger distance.
My battery has a habit of charging on it's own.. To an extent. When I reset my phone when the battery is full. It'll boot up with 15% battery, then it'll slowly creep itself up to 20%-25% then it stops. Then again, my battery is going bad.

There's is absolutely no way it is actually charging. I had this happen on my s3 a few times. It ended up messing up and not charging at all

Lol either way fellas the video is proof their is also many other videos of othee phones. Guess it happens to them when you dont take care of it as good? Idk either way still a mystery to me. Sure will see a self charging phone soon. Remember that one girl who invented a battery that charges in less than a minute full charge? Google aquired it some time back. I wonder what ever happened.

You must be talking about a different video because the video in the link posted in op does NOT show the back of the phone. He never once flipped the phone over to show the actual back of the phone, so no it does not show the front and back (I have no clue how you landed on that conclusion)! Just for a brief second he tilted his hand (with the phone still lying flat on it's back in his hand) at an angle where you can see the very bottom part of the battery cover, and you can tell it's 2-3 times thicker than the stock S3 battery and door cover so it's obviously a battery case! Sorry to burst your bubble but unfortunately there's no such thing as a magical self charging phone lol

No I never said there was but there are such things as glitches and such. I've seen stuff like that happen with phones before either from a glitch or issues with the battery, and thanks for the reply but I'm no idiot I know there isn't any magical self charging phones but thanks for the input. Have a wonderful day.
Wait so the self charging phone the guy just sold me is fake. Damn
