I just received my mhl to HDMI adapter. Hooked it up and it works. I get a picture on the screen with YouTube, DirecTV, and so far anything else. The only thing it doesn't do as far as I can tell is charge the phone. I'm not looking for it to fully charge or quickly charge it as the phone is in use but all indicaters ( batt in status bar, lock screen,ect) don't show the phone charging. I know it isn't as I seem to lose about 1% per 3-4 minutes. Is this how it is supposed to be , meaning the phone won't charge or is it supposed to and I just can't get it to?

My official Samsung MHL adapter charges my phone... Well since the display has to be on for MHL it doesn't really charge it, it is but the screen uses so much battery that it actually loses a small percentage over time.
You should see the charging icon though...

No I have no charge ( lightning) icon. My adapter isn't official. Got it off eBay. Hmmm.

Charger or cable problem?
Mine is working perfectly and I got it from eBay.
So try another charger... Are you using the GNexus original one?
It's possible that it's the cable fault, so consider to retrieve it to who sold it to you.
Sorry for bad English
Original charger..no the one they sent. I'll try the original charger and see

I use the one that came with my Nexus One. It's 5W charger, like the Samsung wall wart, but has a cable that's a foot or so longer. I keep the Samsung at the girlfriend's. At work I use a 5V/.85a motorola that I found lying around.
Any brand name charger will work fine. Off brands...well...you get what you pay for sometimes.
Idk if itll help, but I have an HP Touchpad in the house, and the "barrel" like wall adapter and a random micro-USB charge with "AC" power as shown by the nexus.
tl;dr buy an HP touchpad charger on the cheap.

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

Have any of you guys experienced the charging port on the bottom of the phone not working properly? Mine is not working reliably with numerous chargers. Was wondering if this may be a widespread issue or if it's just me
Only issue I had was that my phone would lock up using a SG3 charger so stopped using it.

I didn't charge last night and so I plugged mine in at work today with only 8% battery left. I checked it later and was down to 5%, my old Evo 3d charger didn't seem to do anything to it. I powered down, unplugged everything, removed battery and then reconnected and it finally started charging. It charges very slow at 1amp but it's charging now at least.

+1 to this! I was having the same problem until I realized that the charger that comes with the phone is 2amp. As long as I charge with that or my touchpad charger, I am good to go.

I noticed that the port may be a little deeper than some cables allow for. I haven't had a chance to verify this, but you may want to check the cable you're using for a good fit.

The real problem is in the charger itself. I tried using an HTC charger and it was a no go. The stock charger is a 2 AMP version and that is the way to go. It actually charges quite quickly on the appropriate charger.

I've used Blackberry, HTC, Motorola chargers... all worked for me.
I've had my phone for about a week and I am also experiencing issues with the charger port. It happens randomly. I would connect the charger and it wouldn't charge but if I try again moments later, it will charge. I also experienced it go from charging to not charging, repeatedly. (My charger works fine, I tested it with other devices)

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??

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.
