So this means I must get myself a new battery then. Oh well, this phone is old anyway.

Before buying new battery, try different charger and/or different usb cable. Is it same when charging with pc?
I have similar problem, but only under heavy load (while in home on charger and playing heavy games it's discharging slowly, but on different charger and cable it's charging normally)

Phine not charging.

Is any one else having a problem with the phone reverse charging. I.e. the battery still draining while on the charger.

I borrowed a charger at the library and it would freeze my screen. I thought it was a phone defect. When I came home my home charger is acting normal .

If you are using it as a wireless hotspot with usb charging I could imagine that happening.
Usb charging is very weak.

charging sound repeats

Why does my phone keep making the sound that it makes when you first plug in the charger over and over repeatedly, every minute or two?
Sounds like the cable is moving inside the port. The note 1 was plagued by this issue. Try wiggling it around to see if that was it.

If you're plugged into a computer/laptop, drain is probably equal to the amount the kernel can pull from USB for power. Stock kernel has 500mA limit for USB connections compared to 2A wall connections.

Something might be draining your battery.
Even I've noticed many times, battery gets decreased while charging and playing games. Please don't use your mobile while charging. It can effectively improve the time it gets fully charged.
It's been my personal experience.
Or put in airplane mode over night to charge it effectively.

you can change an USB line
if no use, put mobile in airplane mode or shutdown to charge
(sorry for my poor english
Do u think it can be the problem of kernal m using stock plus

I've been using it for a while and I had no issues. So absolutely not a kernel issue.

Charging issues

My phone has been charging super slow does anyone know how to speed it up.

Are you using the factory cables? I've found that to be a huge problme with slow charging if you don't use factory cables or a charger having the same output volts and amps.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I've noticed that it also matters how you put - or better - TURN your charger in the wall socket (I tried turning it 180 degrees, thus changing the polarity of the fork and voila, my phone charges fast)
Possibly not my factory charger broke and I bought some flat cables they charge like crap what output and all that should I get.
Sent from my LG-E980 using xda app-developers app
You should get an HTC cable, and a charger box that goes into the wall with at least an output of 5volt and 2amps

Battery Issue

Okay at first I thought that i was having issues with the roms that would drain my battery but it always on slow charge, I tried so many different usb & wall chargers all the same & even when I have my phone on, the battery drains fast. Does anyone know how to fix this besides getting a new battery?

Are you trying different charge cables? That can make a difference.
Also... See my post here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49155732

My battery also drain so fast when using stock rom or custom ones.
Is that because too often trickle charging?
Sent from my Optimus G Pro using Tapatalk
That happened to me and I got it back to normal by changing the CPU settings to interactive.

I have used different wires still no change. So irritating to always have to charge my phone. Especially when i have to turn it completely off to charge & it charges slow.
Hmmm so change the cpu to interactive?

are you using the original charger that came with the phone or is it a generic charger? I had this problem with my previous phone, lg optimus l9. I used different generic chargers and a samsung charger and kept having the problem so I ordered an lg oem charger and it charged fine and didn't drain the battery after that. and try this battery app instead, betterbatterystats. you can download it for free here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
I used them both generic & the one it came with but they are all the usb kind. It so frustrating... Thanks for the app advice i'm going to try it out & hope it works.

It fixed my problem. It doesn't hurt to try. Setting, performance, then change CPU from on demand to interactive. Good luck.
