Am I crazy or is my screen less responsive while charging?

Well you are not suppose to use your phone much while its plugged into the charger because it can get hot. It may be less responsive because of that.
I can actually say I get the same thing. It seems to right as I disconnect it from the house charger that it becomes more responsive to taps and doesn't lag with the events. Funny bit is that I had the same issue with all 6 Droid Inc handsets I went through, so this makes me think its something to so with the stock Rom HTC/verizon puts on them.

Had the lag with inc2 when plugged in using certain chargers. If I use the factory charger then no lag.

Hmmm... I've yet to use a factory charger. I bought my 2 on craigslist and it came with a Samsung charger or something.

It depends also, I think, on whether you are charging via PC's usb port or via the official HTC wall charger (I have 3 different OEM verisons, putting out 5V at 1A) and whether it's a HTC usb cable or generic/other branding - most noticed with the device powered on when the built-in smart circuitry are sensing, whatever .....
Yulp, at times, the touchscreen seemed sluggish when it's plugged in.

So I have been looking through all of the Q & As and ive noticed many issues with phones getting stuck in certain steps while rooting, updating or other times when we are required to plug our phones into the USB Ports.
Well I had the same issue a few nights ago, literally spent all night.trying to solve it and getting help from various users here.
one solution presented to me was to use a different USB cord in my case I was using a blackberry branded USB cord which I had bought off of Ebay, I switched to an OEM Tmobile My Touch 4G Slide cable and voila! Issues solved!
I had issues rooting and updating my S2 & also an Infuse 4G
So apparently not all micro USB cables are made the same.
Sorry if this was posted in the wrong section...
Mods excuse me if it was.
In closing with any and all issues while connected to your computer try using a different USB cable preferably OEM

Its true. Some USB cables are much better than others. Especially OEM ones.
I've had the same issue before. Thanks for sharing!

The mytouch 4g cable might present issues as well.,I have one and any time I use it
My battery% gets froze at 100% until I reset it couple times or couple hours later it'll drop from 100 to 70%.

I think that's the problem with the charger outlet part. I think. Not exactly sure, but from what i read... That's usually the problem

I believe that too, since ive had no issues at all with mytouch cable.
Like I said I think the only issue is the fact that some cables are not USB 2.0 so as long as you are certain that your cable is USB 2.0 youll be good

I had a really weird issue with some USB cables. Some times it wouldn't show mass storage but it would charge through the computer BUT if I slowly put the mini USB wire into the phone at an angle the mass storage would pop up. I was literally tweaking when I soft bricked my phone and the computer wouldn't recognize it in download mode. Kept trying to reinstall the drivers come to find out it was the cable the whole time.

My charger makes some horrible noises. I've had to resort to buying another one made for an s3 that charges slower when I don't need to charge it quickly.
Does this happen to yours? If not how can I send it back or request a new one from Samsung?

I was just about to search for this and came across this post, my Note 2 charger seems to make the same noises but only when the phone is plugged in & I THINK it stops when it’s finished charging, strange...
I could probably live with it but my main concern is the safety of it, I would also like to know if this is normal.
Anybody else??
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
I went to the samsung support page and contacted them. Within a couple of days they asked for my IMIE, date of purchase etc and say they sending me a new one.
I find it tends to make the noise as its either fully charged or almost charged
Thanks, I just sent them an email and I hope they do the same for me and the plug functions normally!
I've had to resort to charging my phone with a 1A charger I bought off amazon for the s3. Takes 4 hours to charge but I use it most often since I'd rather have the slower charge than the irritating whining noise.

Nope It's true. Try a frequencies app, you'll see that some sounds actually are only heard by younger age groups. As you get older you tend to loose the ability to hear higher frequency sounds.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using Tapatalk 2
Jep mine as well! Annoying whirring electro sound.. but only when disconnected from the phone, so no use to keep the charger in imo
Mine has this problem. Does anyone reading this with a Note II not? For me, it seems to get louder the closer the phone is to 100% charged, still makes the noise on 100% charge.
I phoned up Samsung and they said they're sending me out a new charger, so I'll report back when I find out if it makes the noise.

Hi all im alil new to android mostly delt with apple but I couldnt resist this phone.
My question is my iphone 4s fully charged in like an 1-1n a half from dead
By note 2 at&t version takes 5-7 hrs to charge from dead is that normal
Also if it helps im on jedi 6.1.2 rom
I never let the battery drain out when I was stock so im unsure if its the rom
but the rom has better battery life so I doubt it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
The 4s has a 1432 mAh battery and the Note 2 has a 3100 mAh, it should take longer to charge if it has more than twice the capacity.
5-7 hours seems long to me, mine charges quite quickly on stock ROM. Are you charging via USB? Are you using the charger that came with the phone? It is a 2 amp charger, much higher than many generic chargers or chargers you may have lying around from old phones.
Yup Im using the one it came with I have insurance but im rooted and off stock not sure if theyll replace it only had it 3-4weeks I was aboit to order some extra batteries I just dont no if it's hardware related. Isbthe anyway to check it
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
My Note II has always taken exactly 2.5 hours to go from absolute dead to fully-charged. I saw someone else on this site post the same thing. If your phone is taking that long to charge, either one of two things are the culprit: either you have a defective phone/battery or you are not using the Samsung wall charger that came with the phone. I can tell you, now, that if you use anything other than that official Samsung charger, it will take 2-3 times as long to charge your device.
Not looking good for me then, I just flashed the jedi rom a few days ago
I mite try to go back to stock and see if there's a difference because from half life on stock it took less then a hr
Can go stock simply by using he past nanRoid backup if so can I then use the backup to go back to jedi ??

Yes on nandroid questions. Possible defective cable as a check vs taking phone back. Mine charges in 2.5 hours. Also just checked yesterday with charging from a generic Walmart bought dual usb car charger with the stock charging cable and it took 1 hour to go from 58% to 100.

"The one" what? The white plug that goes into the wall socket, or just the USB cable and plugging it into your computer to charge?
I ask because you weren't specific and there will be a significant difference if you're plugging into your computer via USB versus plugging into the wall with the white Samsung charger. The cable isn't particularly relevant, but the actual "plug" piece is ... it's 2mA vs the 0.5mA of most computer/laptop USB ports.
There sending me one in the mail, they said it had a lil green erosion in the charger port maybe water damage, I hope they dont try charging me full price of the phone i just got it 3-4weekss ago and its never been anywhere near water and my case protects all openings
Pray for me yall

So a few days ago my 2 month old s3 stopped charging, but only with Samsung chargers. I have tried 3 different ones so far. It seems to charge just fine with any other charger, htc, Motorola, ect. I used an air gun and cleaned out the charging port, but to no avail. I am stock except rooted. Haven't really installed anything recently. My question, do I bother sending it in for repair, or should I live with it? I don't want to have to unroot and backup everything to send it in if its only going to do it again in a few months. Anyone else have this problem?

Did you try a different Samsung charger with the same cord? Or even a different Samsung charger with a different cord?

Might be the USB port.... in which case you should ask for a replacement phone.
Don't bother with all the drama. It's an easy fix. Go on ebay, find an s3 charging port and replace it yourself. You just remove the battery, unscrew the back panel, and then port just snaps on and off. Take it off and snap the new one in place.
And I'd make a nandroid and then flash a custom rom.. See if it's software related.. If not, that means it's hardware.. But if you really want, talk to sprint, they have to give you a new one if manufacturer defect like that.

Sounds pretty easy to fix. Not sure if I want to void the warranty yet though.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
You wouldn't be voiding the warranty I don't think. Not to mention there's no way for them to know. Where the port is located, doesn't have any warranty seals or anything. I don't think any of the phone does besides maybe along the antenna. Check out some YouTube videos and you'll see how simple it is. No saudering drama. Just simple clip on and off kinda like a button

I have a similar problem: I have the same model phone, and I found that I can only charge using a data cord, not a generic charging cord. I can't imagine the reason, but I have found that unless a charger utilizes a true data cord, charging won't happen.
Hi today found out that my note is acting strange whenever I try to charge while its on it wont let me the charging icon shows with a big red cross on it and wont charge a bit it just keeps draining. Tried while its off and it works normally , disturbs me to have to turn it off each time I want to charge it, anyone experienced this before?

are you using the stock charger. if not make sure that the aftermarket charger is a 2A charger.
Its the usb connection signal. Mine did that occasionaly too, but not lately. It should recognize its charging after a second or two

i have no issues when using stock charger and cable, I run across this with other charges and cables that are less than 2 amps though
what kind of charger are you using or cable?
Thanks for your answers guys its the stock one which makes this kinda strange.
Yes this has happened to me on a couple of occasions. Unplugging and plugging it back in solved the problem. I also discovered that not only does the charger matter, but I got different results (charging times) using the same charger but different cables. Maybe there are different guage wire used in the cables?

yes, the cable also matters to handle the extra amps, so you need both the stock charger and cable combo
My stock cable went bad somehow and I had the same problem. It wouldn't charge at all. Even overnight

After reading this thread, I went and downloaded an app called Galaxy Charging Current. I know there are a lot of battery management apps out there, but this is a really simple, basic app that tells you how many amps are flowing thro the charger and cable to your device. My device using OEM pulls 1.8A.
I'll be buying a car charger from Amazon and will use this app to determine if it performs as claimed.
