Hi guys, I have a Tilt2 with the EnergyROM...
My phone recently started acting up, and wont charge the battery when plugged in (oem HTC charger)
The orange light turns on, and phone says charging but battery level doesnt change, in fact it drains as usual. Yet sometimes if I leave the phone plugged in it will start charging?
I also get the current charge isnt enough switch to AC charger or close applications error sometimes when plugged with the AC charger...
I'm leaning towards a bad battery but wanted to see if anyone had this problem before?
Thanks in advance!
That sounds like a charger problem. try a different one.
thanks for the response...i tried a charger that had the usb plug to it, i tried a charger with a usb end on it, and two car chargers and i get the same effect...i did hard resets and even installed a new ROM to see if it would help. but no luck

It's the the charging points , look at the middle bar is it staight across try bending it just a little , a smidge left or right , I had this issue before and also on my original tilt and it fixed it.
Since I updated to the most recent software a month ago I've noticed that my phone is sometimes very hard to operate when connected to the USB charger.
I've also installed some stuff since then.
The unlock (slide) jumps all over the place
and if you do manage to unlock it's very hard to select anything.
This all stops (behaviour returns to normal) once you remove the power connector.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Are you using the charger that came with the phone, ive had this problem with other phones and it has been the charger and or cable was a cheap one from the market.
Sorry if thats no help
that might be it. I do have a large collection of micro usb cables and chargers, and it's not doing it with the charger it came with.
My galaxy nexus ever since I updated to 4.0.2 is not charging correctly. its charging when connected to a computer usb port, its not charging with the official samsung usb charger or other wall usb chargers
any advice?
thanks

Did you try any other wall charger? It could be the charger itself, not the USB cable. Also, try a different outlet.
Device: Galaxy Nexus
OS / Browser / build number: 4.0.2 build ITL41F.I9250XXKK6
Kernel: 3.0.8-gaaa2611
AC adaptor output: 5v 1A
I have the same lack of charging issue.
I have tried 4 different micro usb cables, oem that came with the device, a HTC, a kindle, and a blackberry.
None of them charge the phone while its in the o/s.
While the device is powered off they all charge the device albeit very slowly when the device is powered off. I get the white charging icon of the battery with the bolt icon inside. Then it flicks to the animated charging icon for 3 or 4 cycles, then back to the bolt icon. -> loop that while it "charges"
Also in the o/s when i have the usb cable plugged in to the same laptop that used to charge it a few days ago (tested on all usb ports, and rebooted laptop + tested on other laptops). The device (in settings -> tethering) says i am not connected at all by usb to a computer.
Anyone else got this / solutions ?
I have this exact problem as well. Started yesterday!
Also having this issue, any solutions?
I think its a bug in Android my self..... but i did go to verizion and they gave me a different wall charger not made by samsung and I havnt had the problem yet... not saying it fixed it tho, because the problem wasnt always there, it only happened randomly.
It wasnt a problem with the battery its self, i had bought an extended battery trying to fix the problem and it did not.
I have the same problem now too.
Plug you phone in and go into battery settings. Does it say Charging(USB)? Both my Nexi had a faulty cable and both were replaced in 2 days for free from Verizon and the other from Samsung.

No, it doesn't say charging. My cables are fine...
This problem is sporadic. Sometimes it will charge and sometimes it won't.
I contacted amazon about mine doing this and they offered to RMA it. Couldn't charge it even running a custom 4.0.3 rom so had it replaced.
I managed to fix it, I suspect it was due to me updating my software to version 4.0.2...
I booted it into fast boot and wiped the cache then restored to factory defaults in fast boot...
My friend who I work with also has a Galaxy Nexus to but his O/S is running 4.0.1 mine was fine before I updated since I wiped it is seems to be ok since my first post.
I only noticed this when I used a different charger that used a cheap two wire mini USB and a lower amperage. To fix it I rebooted. OEM and off a computer have worked fine for me.
I've also had the same problem. It happened to me a couple days ago. I've tried multiple different cables and outlets with no success.
Does anyone know if a factory reset will fix the problem?
If not, I'll have to go get it replaced at Verizon.
Just a follow up. I tried everything, experienced the same issues as the OP and finally traded it in for new one at my Bell provider. The issue does not seem to stem from the battery as USB is also non-functional (which would not be affected by the battery not charging). If you experience this issue I would highly recommend taking it back to your reseller (if possible) or contacting samsung for repair.
I had the sane issues. Powering down the phone using quick boot app while plugged in worked for me. Seems like a sw prob. GSM nexus 4.03

Powering down with "quick boot" is no different than powering down manually. I have tried both methods and they do not work for me upon powering back up. I've also reset battery stats in recovery mode but to no avail.
The only sure method is to charge the phone while it's powered off. What's interesting is that I don't seem to have this issue with my other Galaxy Nexus phone.
agreed it should be the same, yet I got different results, and this was after changing chargers, usb cords, computers, wiping data, wiping battery, etc etc (note that charging worked while powered off, albeit slowly, throughout this. perhaps it was simply a coincidence, but that was the only variable I changed at that point, and it charging has worked since then.
I suspect that it's due to me using a (motorola) oem two wire (power only) ac cable, though I am not sure (while trying to get the phone to charge while powered on, I used three different samsung oem cables, and two batteries, so I'm somewhat convinced this is a weird s/w error, whether it's a driver or android itself). has been working since then, and to be safe, I'm staying away from said cable.
Cool. Have you unlocked and rooted your phone? I have, but did the same with my other Galaxy Nexus which doesn't have this problem.
Has this problem been officially reported to Google?

Stop using the Motorola charger, once it happens it sticks until a reboot. If it happens with the stock one after a boot you have a problem. My guess is the Motorola chargers don't play nice with other phones as I've seen oddities before with other devices and their charger.

I have no Moto chargers but I am using multiple chargers. My OEM Samsung charger hasn't been working for me and my phone almost died. Just powered off, connected my Rocketfish charger, turned it on and it appears to be charging normally now. The only other charger I use is a plain USB cable connected to my work computer. Hmmm.
Again, has this been reported to Google? Is it an issue related to root or no?
Hi guys, long story short, lost my phone, must have dropped it somewhere, had it returned.
Now, half the time when I plug it into my PC it coems up as USB not recognized. It doesn't charge of some USB wall chargers, such as my official samsung one Either. Running Paranoid Android. I reverted back to the original battery, as I was using the official extended one for a while. That seemed to help,but now the USB not recognized error is returning, and it never worked off wall charging.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Hey all.
I am using the original Oneplus 3 charger (US, in case there is a Chinese version as in previous models) and having a weird issue.
The charger's behavior is always the same. I plug it in, connect the phone. The phone shows "charging" and after less than a second - disconnects.
The weird thing is that both the charger and the cable work PERFECTLY, as long as they are connected to different components (meaning the cable works with a different charger, and the charger works with a different cable).
I'm losing the option to dash charge, and this is a major feature for our device.
Rom: Latest RR unofficial (by Shreesha.Murthy, it was working on this rom for a few days).
Kernel: Elementalx
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot.
