Charging gets interrupted

Hi Everyone,
This happens every now and then - wondering if anyone is seeing the same thing.
The scenario is this:
My phone will be on my desk, charging. Notification light is blinking showing it is charging.
Phone suddenly wakes up, showing the lockscreen. Charging stops, as if the power usb isn't connected.
I have to then plug/unplug the power to get it to start charging again.
This is happening with a 1 amp charger I always used to charge my Note 1 - it's the one I use at work.

You have to use the charger provided with the note 2.

I don't see why this would be true. I was wondering if you need a minimum amperage to charge the phone.
But most of the time, it charges up just fine, outside of the occasional interrupt.
It also charges up in my car charger.

Good luck.

same happens with my s3. actually started when it got the official JB update.
thing is; I always use its original charger...
fullwipe didn't help.

It seems the beast Is lowering the amount lt pulls to the available ampera ge and one step under that. This could explain the situation I guess.

There have been numerous cases reported here where the usb cable was loose in the socket due to the way the bezel protrudes, preventing full seating of the plug in the socket. Try jiggling the cable while charging and see if it interrupts.
If so, you may have to shave off some plastic from the usb plug to allow it to completely seat.

Wow..same thing happen to me. I thought im the only one with this problem. Im using my old htc charger 1A + original note 2 cable charger. So what did i do, i try to change the cable with others htc brand micro usb cable which i buy later. Problem solve!!
Not sure what is the real problem..is it the 1A current not enough for battery 3100mA charging, or the original cable charger which suppose for 2A flow is not suitable for 1A flow??

Plz Guyz Help me

It sounds like your USB port on your phone is messed up. A lot of times with a bad micro usb port it will either not charge but sync data or it will not sync data but will charge. Also this goes for the actual usb cables as well. If you use a known good usb cable and it will either not charge or not sync dats on your pc, then it's most likely your usb port on your phone is bad. Even the refurbished devices sometimes will have bad ports that were not fully tested before passig QC so this is what I suspect is going on with your phone.

I've heard a bunch of people having this problem. My temporary solution was buying an additional batter w/charger for battery. But the usb flex cable I repaired myself last week. The part was $11.00 and the tools to pry apart and unscrew the phone were about $10.00. There are several tutorial videos on YouTube that guided me through the process.

yeah i did that but still nothing

the battery drop sounds like a clibration problem - coupled with a possibly loose usb port? Had usb charging problems once but got it sorted out by trying to plug the usb cable into the port from "different angles" (carefully!)

You need this tool to find out which one is at fault:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...&_nkw=usb+current+and+voltage+tester&_sacat=0
Swap one by one: charger, USB cable, USB port until you find the problem. Make sure to use known working charger, cable for testing. USB port flex cable is not expensive, just around $5 to $9 on Ebay.
You should have ~ 5-->5.2 Volts, 1.5 -->1.7 Amps when charging. Anything lower than these readings, you have a problem with charger or cable or USB port.
You have to use elimination method to find out the problem as there are many unknown factors when battery is not charging.

Thanks dear friend, i got the solution by replace a new usb port of my tab and now it's alive ?

OP3 only starts to charge when turned off (3.2.2)

My Oneplus 3 does not (or at least it seems like it does not) charge when it's turned on. I plug in the (original) cable and nothing happens. The Led Indicator doesn't turn on and the Battery Symbol doesn't show anything.
When I turn off the device and then plug the cable in it charges like it normally does. When I then power on the device it continues to charge.
Power brick / cable shouldn't be faulty as it charges perfectly when turned off.
This occurred the first time after the 3.2.2 OTA Official Update.
Any ideas, suggestions etc on this one?
EDIT: Ampere App does not read anything when plugging in.
EDIT2: might be a loose connection - didn't work now when powered off then later worked again when powered off. I didn't thought USB Type C would be so sensible

Wipe and flash full rom, your hardware is OK
Or wait here for someone smarter

Same issue
I too have the same issue since yesterday. UPdated to Oxygen 4.0.2 and then the issue started.
Charges only when switched off. I am using original dash charger and cable. Tried with another USB C cable and charger, issue persists!!
Can you please help.

Same advice as above.

USB C just charging on one end when turned on

Hi everyone,
Something really strange happened to me last week (or at least I started noticing it last week)
First, when my HTC10 was turned on, it didn't recognize the charger at all, I tried different chargers and cables and the result was the same. If I turned off the phone it worked perfectly. I wiped the cache and tried again with the same result. I booted in safe mode and got the same result.
I hard reset my phone and loaded all my apps again and now the USB C just works when I plug it in a certain way when turned on(one of the two possible ways, impossible for me to know which of them). When turned off it works perfectly.
Does anyone has experienced this? I think maybe it's related with one app, since when turned off it works with no problem.
UPDATE:
I just hard reset my phone again and loaded NO apps but still the same behavior: when turned off USB C can charge the phone no matter which way I plug it, but when turned on it doesn't.

Power phone up with it plugged in. Does it charge then? I get that problem often. I've narrowed my problem down to when I start my car with phone connected on charge (using car charger). Won't charge after that till I restart phone. I'm assuming it gets over or under voltage and safety circuit kicks in until restart. In your case it might be a charger or cable problem (or combination of both).

I think the problem was the cable I was using, after a while it started doing some crazy stuff like saying that I was not using a powerful enough charger. After I changed it everything is working like a charm

I'm experiencing similar problems, but this happened to me after my phone totally discharged, i repost my experience:
Hi guys! i'm occuring in a big problem, i was wondering if anyone of you had this experience with this or others phones, two days ago my htc 10 was totally without battery and died, so i put it on charge, but nothing happens, no led on, if i try to power on, no signs of life, unable to make it boot, even after hours of charge, i noticed that the phone anche the charger were cold, instead of hot like it should.... but after hours, even without led indicator on, i trying to recover it, with surprise, it was hot, i tryed to power on, no signs, i tryed combination of power button and volume buttons and it booted into dowload mode, and after a millisecond it re-died, and booted normally with 65% battery. BTW from that point the phone is unable to charge if i plug the cable into it, nothing happens, but if i put the cable, when is off, it charges even after boot, i tryed to recalibrate battery but nothing happens....
today, one day later, it seems the things are getting better, i'am able to charge it without having to put the phone off, but i always got the message that the charge is slow.

Clean the connector on the phone, make sure it's nice and shiny.
Give the cables a buff up, reboot your phone.
Allow it to boot, connect the official HTC charger in the wall.
Connect the official htc USB c cable into the charger and unlock your phone.
Connect the cable to your phone.
If that doesn't work, try a different wall socket.
Are you on stock? Have you altered any voltages? Any quick charge mods?

If you can reverse the modifications you've done to it I'd be tempted to say take it back to htc and get it sorted. Shouldn't be like that. Personally that's what I'd do.
