I have had my v-gnex for a few months now and all of a sudden the micro USB port seems to be having issues. It doesn't light up when plugged in and the phone, no matter what from I use. Its always charging. USB be in or out. Any one else having this issue? Tried many different types of chargers.

Try backing it up and then factory wipe the phone. If it's still present more than likely the USB bits has died on you or is dying.
For what it's worth, I had a similar issue with a completely different device which had USB charging.
USB port was basically dying, as evidenced when I pulled it apart.
I did research on it cuz it happened to me.
When using a non-samsung usb plug, you have a high chance of bending the tounge of the USB port down.
Its touching the metal casing surrounding it. Take a toothpick or a pocket knife and make sure its in the middle. Also clean it out of any debris.
Fixed it for me.
Some have had luck with trying to bend the USB pins a little, but don't try that without reading up on the issue. And a lot of people have needed a USB board replacements.
If you still have a valid warranty on your device i'd go for a claim on that.
Do a search in these forum's, there should be MANY threads about the same problem.

My galaxy nexus went in for repair about 2 weeks ago to intercity in birmingham for exactly this problem, under samsung warranty got a text from them earlier tonight saying if i want my phone fixed that will be £51+vat! I went to the samsung site and found that my service request status had changed to cancelled.. is this normal?!
intercity could give me no further info when i called them so i have had to contact samsung but if i dont pay the charge my phone is going to be returned to me unrepaired in 48hours. is it normal or is it the repair place trying to pull a fast one. My nexus is only 6 months old..
Same thing happened to me since yesterday. Hope I can fix it without sending it for repairs.

Bad form replying to my own post but Samsung have said that the reason my service request was changed to cancelled was because it had been determined it wasnt a manufacturing defect... great..
Hi all, I'm pretty lost here. My Note II (N7100) suddenly won't charge. Earlier today it charged just fine. I've only ever run stock with root on it. It's not the charger, it's not the cable. I've tried many of both, all of which worked before, none of which work now. I flashed back to stock recovery and did a factory reset, and the problem persists.
When I plug it into a charger while off, briefly a gray battery screen with what looks like a stationary 'wait spinner' will pop up and then the screen will turn back off again. I know the USB port is not totally FUBARed, because I can flash it with heimdall in Linux. It shows up in lsusb when in the bootloader, but not otherwise. The port is pretty much spotless, especially compared with that on my GNex, which still works fine.
I've tried leaving the battery out for an hour, holding the power button, etc. It almost seems like a problem that could be solved by discharging some capacitors, but battery pulls always solved those on my Galaxy Nexus.
Any thoughts on other things I can try?
I can't even figure out how to contact Samsung support in case this is somehow a warranty/hardware issue. At least on their US site the N7100 isn't even an option in the pulldowns they want me to go through.
After some calls to Samsung USA and Canada, I gave up. Apparently the phone is from the UAE, for which Samsung USA has no phone number, and their repair centers won't touch it if it's international. This is really stupid and I plan to write to Samsung about it. It had only been three weeks since I ordered it, so I am returning it to the Amazon seller for a refund. I'll let them deal with their supplier in UAE I guess. I hate to do that, but it seems to be a hardware problem and I have no other recourse at this point.
I cant really help here but i wanted to let you know i had the same problem with a white note 2 from Carphone Warehouse in the UK, just stopped charging after owning the phone for 2 days (i had also only rooted and running stock rom).
Carphone warehouse replaced the handset for me and havent had a problem with the new one so far but its made me take extra care when plugging or unplugging the usb cable ( i use Airdroid for file transfers now). I guess there must be a defect with a limited few usb ports on the note 2.
I thought it might be a 3rd party usb cable to blame (i use a blackberry usb cable at work but ive stopped that now and only use the official Samsung cable).
Sorry i cant help just wanted to share my experiences, hope you get it sorted, good luck!
Thanks for chiming in Steve, good to know I'm not the only one. I saw another post on here like that too, maybe it was yours? There was no discussion. The strange thing is ODIN worked just fine. Maybe a loose connection only on one/both of the power pins?
Nah it wasn't me mate, I had just put it down to me being heavy handed and thought nothing more of it till I saw your post.
I've seen a post in the Jellybam thread today about the charging being down to software but I don't know how true this is as i've yet to check the facts.
Did you manage to get it replaced? I remember it was the worst feeling in the world when the realization hit that my phone wouldn't charge.

Yeah I just invoked the Amazon.com return policy, sent it back for a refund, and ordered another one. It was supposed to arrive today, but apparently UPS had some kind of mechanical issue and now it's delayed until tomorrow. I just need it to get here before my next month's Verizon plan bills so I can cancel before paying another month.
Sorry to drag up an old thread but this has just happened to me, EXACTLY the same as OP.
I've reset it, wiped everything, re-flashed latest stock firmware. Tried 3 different cables and two different chargers.
Pretty sure the battery is good because if I take it out of the phone and charge it on the dock, it works fine. If I then put the battery back into the phone, the phones works in every way except it wont charge
I have most of my digital life on this thing, I am so screwed without it. Look like its a warranty repair job then? Ive had the phone about 3 months from Phones 4U :crying:

Happened to mine to T-mobile version. Never dropped it, never got it wet, only 1.5 months old.
WTF? Seriously?
Behavior:
Charges sometimes.
Charge sometimes stops at 70% or less.
Screen sensitivity screws up sometimes.
Data constantly being transmitted whether WiFi or cell network.
Never dropped.
Never wet.
Never harshly impacted.
Never rooted.
Tried factory reset.
Tried pulling battery.
Tried different chargers and cables.
Wondering if the trident aegis case put too much pressure on the charger cable by pushing it sideways with the flap.
Any ideas?
Hardware problem.

Check in the box, and if you have an EROS Group sticker on it that means it's covered under warranty here in Dubai, UAE as they are the main distributor here for Samsung products.

This happened to me yesterday after spilling tea on it. I took the device apart as per this video, checked the connectors and reassembled it. Voila, the charger is working again. Obviously I take no responsibility etc etc.
My Samsung Galaxy Note 2 wont charge
I have also had this problem where my galaxy note 2 wont charge. I have tried all the chargers i have used successfully in the past and none of them will charge it now. I had the problem some weeks ago and now it has happened again. I only purchased the phone in January 2013. It is very frustrating. I have never dropped my phone or damaged it in any way what so ever. I have no idea what the problem could be but i will be taking it back to Telstra as i need it sorted out.
Same problem here - is this a generic problem with the Note 2??
I always put my phone on charge overnight , woke up yesterday and it hadn't charged. Swapped batteries - no problem - then put original battery back in, hey presto, charging!
But since then both batteries have run out and I couldn't get either to take any charge. Got it plugged in now and just like other people I've got a static charging ring showing, And no power.
Bought an external charger to try and get round this, but has anyone come up with a proper solution??

Strange...
a mate of mine just mentioned to me today that his note was charging strangely recently, apparantly he took an air gun (on low setting) to the charging port to blast out any miniscule dust n stuff and that fixed it!
Seems they're very sensitive and the smallest thing can make it act strange

Can confirm this is the case! Tried everything, but the blowing air into the USB socket worked :good:
OK... I keep having this problem where when even plugged up my phone is discharging.... Sometimes ill get lucky and it works and charges but most of the time it just starts dying and goes down to 0% so when phone accidently unplugs from charger the thing just dies and i have to try to get it to hook up without turning it on in hopes of after usually half hour trying it catches and starts charging.... Please help! Does this on any rom. Battery does not have bulge. Charger could be the culprit but i have even tried different chargers

Sounds more like a bad micro usb cable or jack to me...
or battery
I wouldn't assume charge issues are necessarily related to the OS, I would start with Cable, Battery, and then micro connector
in that order.
Well all I have is a screwy Verizon brand cable and multiple LG cables... Never had any problems until now

I guess the other thing worth checking is what is using your battery.
I've found that if I'm tethering a 4G connection and have the phone set to never sleep I don't get very good charge rates.
I think the fact that the micro usb connector has such small conductors probably bottle necks current flow, it would be interesting to see if having a high current capable power supply attached to the usb port would overcome the devices current drain, when being used heavily.
But again the internal micro usb jack is fragile, if this problem persists, I can see bad solder joints, or broken conductors being common.
I've took apart phone pushed the little pins back in the charge port not all the way but so they are even, cleaned the crap out of the charge port and it seems that might fix it

well that may help, but I think my point was the actual pins that solder to the circuit board could be an issue too, but that's a trivial fix for any tech that is familiar with soldering. Or even replacing the jack, but you need to illuminate all other possibilities, if that is the issue, I'm sure you can find a repair tech to reflow some solder or replace the jack.

Everytime I've experienced this issue it's been the cord. Some will charge and allow me to transfer stuff. Some will just charge and some do nothing. I stopped going cheap on em. Have had one for a year now that has never messed up. My wife has been through 3 or 4 for her Evo (HTC cord). Hit the pc section somewhere and buy em like that. Better quality and usually less expensive then one with a phone logo on it.
Hope you get it working. That's always a pain in the butt.

If you've used the app, you should know there's hardly anything random about it. When a particular wakelock has exceptionally high usage, Google about it (can be done from within the app) and get some insight into what is triggering it. Then you can disable/suspend that app/service.

Mine was having the same problem, but I followed the advice of an earlier post by Godra and it has stopped turning on automatically. Basically, I used my pocket knife to clean out under the pins in the micro USB charging port. I also bent it up just a little bit (be very careful not to break it) to keep it away from the metal housing, which is a ground. Something must have been shorting one of the pins to ground (the housing) causing it to continuously wake.

Prying or cleaning the USB connector did not help in my case. Battery charge indicator sometimes stayed on, but sometimes not. Battery drained really fast.
I bought a charging flex connector board replacement (they are really cheap on ebay), watched some youtube videos explaining the how to change the board and when my new board arrived, my phone was fixed in under 15 minutes.
My gnex now holds charge for over 24 hours with moderate use.
With Jelly Bean 4.3 installed and a new charging port, it feels like a brand new phone!

Hi,
I have developed an open-souce (GPLv3) app that helps save battery when this happens.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2484871
SnooZy Charger turns off the screen on these ghost connections, saving battery consumption by the display. It does not fix the charging issues, but it reduces the battery drain when this happens.

ps: sorry if this is considered as self promotion or xposting but this issue has been reported on multiple threads..
Hi, i had the same problemen as you all, but i solved the problem by remove all the dust from the input of the charger connection from the phone. I think that the dust was maken some kind of shortwire and that that was the reason for it to turn on the screen, after i cleaned all the dust from the charger point in the phone, my problem seems to be solved. Can some one else confirm this?

I happen exactly that, how could you fix it?
Had the same Galaxy Nexus problem with the display switching on sporadically or turning back on seconds after the phone was manually switched off. The display was the number one consumer of energy due to energy statistics even without using the phone. Bluetooth, GPS were disabled and no special apps were running on the phone.
Hint:
The battery statistics graph's detail view logged charging events although the phone was not connected to a USB charger/port. The display was logged as active parallel to these events. So basically the phone thought it was connected to a charger and switched on the display which it normally also does, but since this charging status was repeating over and over, the display wouldn't turn off by itself.
Yesterday, I examined the USB port with a magnifying glass in bright light and noticed quite some fuzz build-up in the port. Otherwise the port looked good and not oxidized or damaged. So I removed the battery and cleaned off the fuzz from the micro USB port. I used a thin thread to loosen the felt-like lint which took me quite some time. Vacuum cleaner didn't work well. Compressed air might be helpful.
What shall I say: The phone charged very well and behaved normal the whole day without any unusual drain and NO pseudo charging events in the battery statistics!
Should this success not persist, I will report ...

Hello guys. This is my first post on XDA so sorry if I am a little bit lost. Anyhow i've had my zenfone 2 for about half a year now and recently i've been having more and more diffrent issues. Firstly my loudspeaker doesn't or rather it does but only at ceirtan volumes but it can never produce anything that can be heard normally. Secondly my charging has became extremly slow and fast charge does not come up at all (it did before) i am using stock cable and 18w asus charger box. It takes him around 6-7 hours to fully charge without using it and if i use it ,it "estimates" say it will take around 1 day and 22 hours... Even when my battery does charge fully it consumes it really quickly even when in Supersave+airplane mode+all apps off from background and with its screen off. Around 1% per 2 mins. Third issue is that my "homescreen and recent apps button" randomly stop working. My PC doesnt detect it when i connect it via usb cabble (usb debbuging off and on) neither does my Zenfone say anything about connected to my PC. Other issues would be random SIM card things (like its been removed and put back in) , SD slot doesnt work and my Zenfone sometimes does think i have the Asus cover on him and i cant get out of it and unlock my phone.
It does look like either a hardware thing or a corrupt build or smth. (Personal opinnion)
Phone info:
Model: Asus_Z00AD

Is RMA an option for you? If not, I'd try replacing the USB port module for which you can find a replacement on ebay for a few bucks. Although the Asus cover, SD, SIM card and capacitive buttons problems and battery drain at so high rate seem to suggest something is wrong at deeper level than just USB module.
