So i've been driving around for a while with my SGS2 plugged into a Samsung car charger. After an hour of driving i noticed on my phone battery that it was still 1 %. I also saw that my car charger was not working properly, turning on and off. Then i plugged out the phone, came home and tried charging my phone. But it won't go above 0 %. It turns on fine, works normal when plugged in but won't get any charge. Did i mess up my battery?
Yeah, probably did. Try combination of different sockets and chargers to be sure, otherwise forget about it.

I was using my EVO (rooted to Warm ROM) as a GPS today driving down to NYC. The battery wasn't completely dead yet and I was using a car charger to the phone. All of a sudden, the phone just reset! I had no clue why. I used my brother's EVO for GPS and after a little while, his started to reset as well! Has this happened to anyone else with the EVO resetting for no reason after using a car charger? Even after it was shut off, I kept it plugged in and it wouldn't charge (no amber led light). When I got home, it wouldn't charge with the wall charger either. I only solved it by directly charging the battery with a cradle charger for a few minutes to give it some juice and then the phone turned on and i was able to charge it. I was just wondering why this happened and how to prevent it?
I'm wondering if it was the car charger or the car's port or w/e but i don't think the port had a problem cuz i used an actual GPS unit and plugged it and it charged fine...
what i think happened to you was your battery overheat, which will cause the phone to reboot, some rom and kernel combinations will get hot when using nav app or 4g specially while charging, and once your battery get hot enough it wont charge its a fail safe, sometime they get damaged too
I plug my phone into the charger, the battery icon shows a thunderbolt, then after about 30 seconds, the thunderbolt goes away and it won't charge. If I turn the phone off, it charges fine.
Anyone else see this?
No but I have noticed that the phone doesn't really like to charge to 100%... for whatever reason it says fully charged but as soon as I take it off it's 90%.
Nope, but it does seem to charge very very very quickly.
Never had any problems like that. Have you tried using a different USB cable?

I think I may have over reacted. I think the at&t charger I was using is bad. I tried to charge a friends phone and it did the same thing. Charged for about 10 seconds then stopped. I then got another charger and it seems to be charging fine.
Hey guys, I'm having charging issues. I'm rooted and on jedi x14. I'm using the zerolemon 9300 mah battery. My phone started acting up about 3 days ago. I put it to charge all night and come morning it did not. When turned on, the charging symbol would not even turn on. I changed the battery with my stock samsung battery and it showed the charging symbol, but was charging at 0 mah on galaxy charging current so I switched back to the zero lemon. It said it was charging but it was still charging at 0 mah. I left my phone on and on the charger for 9 hours and it is still at the same percentage. I turned it off for about 10 minutes while plugged in and when turned back on, it went up 2%. While turned off, the phone will not even recognize that it's charging. For example, usually when my phone is working properly and turned off, it will show a big green battery showing that it's charging. Mine would not do this. When I try to turn it on when on the charger, it will show a spinning battery symbol as if it's trying to read the battery but goes away after two seconds. My phone will not turn on when connected and powered off. After unplugging it, it will boot normally. I am using the stock samsung power brick with a different cable that is 6 ft but would still charge at 2 A up until recently. The charger works on an s3 mini, s3, and s2 with no issue. Please help, any suggestions are appreciated. I bought the phone in November and have insurance with tmobile.

Now it's not charging at all. I tried using a micro usb to micro usb cable to pull some battery out of an s3 but that did not work.

Not gonna find a fix. It sounds like hardware. Try your orig cord. If it doesnt charge let tmobile deal with it via warranty.

Original cord not charging. Something weird just happened. My phone went into docking mode and I don't know how tk get out of it. It's not plugged in at all. I'm in a foreign country and can't replace the phone for at least another week. This sucks.

Try cleaning the contacts on your usb port. I was having a similar issue and it worked for me.

I got great battery life yesterday (better than usual I'd say....had about 50% left after about 3 hours of screen on and 13 hours off the charger, so I let it sit off the charger over night. Not something I normally do. When I woke up I used it for a bit and got to about 21 hours off charger and 4 hours of screen on....the important thing is this:
when I plugged it back in, it started carging like normal I left the room for a bit, came back.....and it was up a couple percent, but said it was no longer charging. I've reseated the charging cable a couple of times, to no avail. When the phone is on, it won't respond to the cable at all. If I turn the phone off, and plug in the cable, it comes on, acts like it knows it's charging. but keeps bouncing from the Samsung screen to the battery charging screen (no animation though) and a quick vibrate. It seems like if I leave it on, and leave it with the charger in, it'll charge, but it's not reflected in the battery %. if I reboot, it'll go up some, but not as quickly as it should have.
I've been fighting this all day and am finally up to the high 70s. also, if the phone is on, and I have the cable plugged in, but pull the battery, the phone will stay on via the power cable for about 3 seconds. Have been using DartStalker 6 with the Compulsion Kernel. I had an old version of that kernel so I updated to 10 with no change. Obviously wiped cache and dalvik for that....
it seems really weird that it kinda knows it's being charged, but.....seems
IDK....any ideas? suggestions? oh, also if I plug the cable into my laptop, the laptop doesn't see the device.
also, stock cable and charger block. have tried different regular USB cables and chargers....specifically whatever my wife is using to charge (successfully) her HTC One Mini.
just had more weird stuff happen. got home threw the phone on the charger, hooray! it shows that it's charging! after letting it sit for a bit I check it....it's lost juice. UGH!
Went to T-Mobile today. New phone should be here in 2 days. Oh well.....
Start from yesterday, my phone wont charge with the stock charger it told me to use a compatible charger. I have tried 3 differet USB cable but none of them work. Also ihave the quick charger on my car, it was working fine before, but now it will Not show the plus sign next to the charging icon and the battery % drops even with the charger pluged in. Any one knows what's happening?

I have exactly the same Problem! I can only charge the phone, if the lipo is fully discharged! And only the ASUS Qick charger works for me.
I also monitored, that the USB at the phone is always On, also, if the phone is powered off. Do that the phone, itself dischares..
Have anybody an solution?
My phone doesn't charge with any quick chaegers… only work woth normal chargers

I've occasionally had this problem---a battery icon with a "!" in it appears and says to use a compatible charger. This mostly happens for me with the stock charger. I've found the most likely thing to fix it is unplugging the charger from the wall for 20-30 seconds to let the capacitors fully discharge, and then plug it in again.
Sometimes it has been due to the charger partially unplugged from the wall, or the usb cable partially unplugged at one end.
I hope this helps, as the first few times it happened to me I was worried the usb port in the phone might be going bad.
I have problem with both original and non original chargers occasionally. The trick for me is to unplug the cable and re plug. Problem solved.
The replug Fix the (!) Symbol.
My phone was now fully charged. After an full discharge of the LiPo. Now it has 85% . and then i plug in the charging cable nothing happens. Nö recharge. So i must wait that the phone is fully discharged, and then i can charge it aging. I think On my phone is the charging controller damaged.
