So when I have my stock 1800mah battery in the phone my charger shows up as USB in the battery stats. It also seems a little touchy when it wants to charge. There shouldn't be anything wrong with the port since I just got the phone Saturday brand new from best buy. The thing that is confusing me when I put my old 1500mah battery from my SGS1 the charger comes up as AC like it should and i have no problem with the charger not wanting to work. Can someone help me out there

You could have a faulty battery, in which some of the cells in the battery may be damaged. How are you attempting to charge your phone? through a usb port on a computer or through an outlet?
Through an outlet.

I also have an external charger but an extended life battery acted the same way. It wouldn't charge in the phone. I fully charged it in the external charger then ran the battery in the phone until it shut off. I repeated this a couple more times and now the battery seems to be behaving. It might be worth a try but if it's the only battery you have, then maybe not.
Well I tried using my cousin's charger and it shows up as AC so I'm guessing it's just something with my charger not my battery

Do you have an extra battery to try? If not, perhaps it's time for a new one. Good luck.

sounds like a bad charger or charging port do you have another phone with a Micro USB plug? if it is the charger then that one will charge your battery if its the port then you have no choice but to try your best to unroot and take it in for a repair and I hope you have tep or some kind of insurance
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.

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.

Recently my wife plugged her phone in for the night to charge it and in the morning it was nearly dead. I figured bad connection so I unplugged and replugged it and showed charging now. A few hours later and it was near the same percentage. It is obviously getting some power. I got it charging slowly last night. It was at 91 when I went to bed. This morning it did not say charging and the battery logs I had on showed it stopped charging twice. The first time it hit 100 and quit charging for about an hour and then restarted. The second time it hit 100 it stopped charging for the night.
Other things I have tried:
Swapped battery with the one in my phone. (also t989d)
Different chargers (4 so far)
Flashing a different rom. (Leaving it on the cm10 nightly that works on my phone for the moment)
Looking for physical or obstruction for the charging port. (None I can see)
Searching the forums. (Doesn't quite match some posts since it does sometimes charge but I am going to pick up a new can of compressed air in case of lint inside.
Anyone with bright ideas?

I have had similar problems with Kindle Fires -- my family has had to have both Fires replaced twice. The problem with them is that the connections to the USB port break. I would think that the same thing could happen to just about any device that uses a micro usb connector.
Have you tried a different wall socket or charging with a computer?

This is what we are afraid of. We tried charging via the computer and it didn't seem to work.
After a reboot it is slowly charging off the wall outlet with the original charger. Much slower than it should but it is charging.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
You need to replace the charging port. if your phone is still under warranty just get it replaced.
Same thing happen to me the part is cheap to replace but you have to be careful when you take apart your phone so you don't damage any of the flex cable connectors.

I've come to the same conclusion. You make it sound easy to do. Is there no soldering etc?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T989 using xda premium
There is soldering and I would take it to a professional to get it replaced if I were you. It will cost a bit more, but at least they "know" what they are doing because your limited experience can easily damage the circuit board reckon it unusable.
Yep. I've done some home soldering in the past but those were all with things that the parts to replace the whole item were under $20. Waiting on a reply from a local shop

Ok so I never really paid attention to how long it takes my phone to charge 100%..
So last night I put my phone on the charger at midnight, woke up at 350am and it was at 55%....
It tok my phone about 5 1/2 hours to fully charge. Normal??
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium
Not normal... My son used to keep putting the charger tip in his mouth and it messed up the pins inside my charging cable.... Tried to clean it with a tooth brush and it worked for a few weeks but started undercharging again. Maybe the pins inside yours are dirty? Bought a new charging cable and it works fine now for me...

Not sure if it makes any difference but, I have it plugged into an extension cord.
Would plugging it into the wall directly be it?

I have the same issue on jedi x 11 rom saber kernel I believe. When I'm on stock It takes 2 to 3 hours to charge fully. I use the oem charger that came with it as well. I would hate to stop using this rom for that reason.

Mine does the same thing. But I use a desktop dock. If I use just the oem charger and cord it charges fast though.
Adding on a usb extension or using a different usb cord slows it down though.

The computer didn't make a difference, but I took charger out of surge protector and plug directly into wall and it's charging like my stock that charges fine with the surge protector. Can't figure out why stock charges fine with surge protector and jedi x11 rom doesn't. Either way I found my solution.

Its because the dock charger is maybe 800ma output. The wall charger is 2amp charger. The wall charger is best for quick charge. It takes about 1-2 hours with perseus kernel.

Omg I have the same problem.
I tried charging my Note 2 last night before going to bed. Phone @ 60%. Woke up 7-8 hours later and it was @ 97%. I used an extension USB 3.0 cable (10-15ft) after the AC adapter then hooked up a BlackBerry USB to MicroUSB.
I thought something was wrong w/ my Rom since I plugged it into the wall to charge, and if I do anything w/ screen on, it would end up draining even though plugged in.
I plugged the phone to my comp, which uses the stock Note 2 USB cable, and it charges fairly fast.
My problem is I used to have a Galaxy S3 and Nexus S before that, and it never had this slow charging issue with the same AC adapter + extension + usb-microusb setup.
Im having the same problem .... I would put my phone to charge around 9pm with 20-30 percent and I would wake up at 6am and my phone would be at 80-90 percent charging ...

I installed some monitoring widgets that monitor input charge. I think something is seriously wrong with roms. The input rate is 1600-1800. However it is still taking forever to charge via stock oem wall adapter + cable. I have to reboot to have it charge normally. Not sure what's causing it. Will charge fine, but then after a day or so of use, it ends up charging super slow regardless of where I charge.
Just had my phone charge from 87%-93% in 30-40 minutes.
My Galaxy S3 charged almost twice as fast.

I use Battery Monitor Widget Pro. Also Elixir E2 widgets for tiles that show the charge rates.
Mine charges from like 10% to 100% in like three hours. Running JediM13.
Try cleaning your battery contacts and the contacts for the phone. Might help. Maybe your outlet output is lower? If you can, try cleaning the microUSB port. I usually try to clean my contacts regularly.
I don't know much- just throwing out random ideas
those with slow charge, should try getting a new usb cord. even if your phone is charging doesn't necessarily mean your micro usb cable is 100% working. everytime i start experiencing slow charge i buy a new one and charge time goes back to normal. i've gone through 4 oem samsung micro usb cables since my s2 days.
So i had my phone for a while and just noticed this. When my battery gets real low I plug it in to the wall charger. It seems that if I continue to use it while charging, the charger cannot keep up with the use and it eventually dies and shuts off. Is this normal? Any fixes? Thanks.

This IS the correct answer, I have 2 samsung chargers, 1 is fast as hell, the other slow.
It is the charger.
If you're using it faster than you can replenish it, yeah, that's "normal".
