Hey Guys,
I had my P8000 now for several months and am happy so far.
Up until yesterday everything was working fine. I wanted to charge my phone over night as I do almost every night. When I woke up this morning the phone wasn´t charged at all. I pluged it in at 33% and that´s exactly what was left when I unpluged it this morning. I thought that the charged might be broken so I tried two other chargers. But It´s always the same: The LED lights up and the phone indicates that it´s being charged.
I´m now down to 27% and turned the phone of so that the battery doesn´t drain completely.
Any advice on what I could do?

Give the port a good blow and check if there is any fluff lodged in there. I have had this problem but after inserting the cable a few times it charged again.
You might need a new charge port

I got it charging again yesterday with a charger from a colleague. I don't know what did the trick but now it works with the charger next to my bed again.
But when I look at the charge port it does look very dusty. I'll blow it out and by a spare part, just in case.

Hey guys, I recently had a problem with my screen turning on and off on it's own but finally it stopped. But now I'm having even worse problems.
Basically what is happening is that my phone won't charge. Last night it was at 60% and I put it in the charger. I woke up in the middle of the night and I checked my phone and it was fully charged, so I went back to bed. When I woke up in the morning to take my phone it was only at 49%, so I plugged it back in and it charged to 54% before I had to go. I barely used to phone all day to conserve on power since I didn't really have much left. So, it's at 40% battery when I get back home and I plug it into to charge. I left it for an hour or two and went to go check on it. It didn't charge at all. In fact all the stats were saying that it was discharging. So I unplugged it from the back side (where the charger is in the wall) and the lightning bolt was still in the top corner. I freaked out and unplugged it from the usb port and it stopped, when I plugged it back into the usb (without power from the power outlet) it showed that it was still charging which was really weird. I tried everything such as taking out the battery and putting back in. I even tried to use a different usb cable to charge it with no success. But still everything says it's discharging.
I have no idea what to do? Could this a sign that the battery is failing, should I buy a new one? Does anybody have any idea of what might be happening? I've been looking everywhere but I haven't found any solutions
It's probably input voltage dropping caused by USB cable. Try another cable and see.
Well the problem stopped for a few days but now it back again, I plug it in to charge and it just doesn't charge, it recognizes that it's plugged in but it just won't charge.
I'm now attempting to charge it with a different cable again to see if it works. If it doesn't could this be a sign of a battery issue? Because if it is I can buy one tomorrow.
I'm starting to think it might be the charging point, hypothetically if I were to send it to Samsung for repairs, how much would they charge for replacing the charging port. Or would it easier to replace it myself if I were to buy one off ebay? How difficult is it to replace the charging port?
So up until now my battery has been charging really quickly, with ~1 hour to charge to full. Just last night, however, it suddenly started charging exceptionally slowly. Left it plugged into the Samsung wall charger at 41% and when I wake up 6 hours later it's only at 92%. I had noticed it charging slowly late yesterday as well.
I don't think the problem is with my ROM or any apps I'm running, because I get the same unsatisfactory results whether the phone is on or off before I plug it in.
The only thing I can think of is this: yesterday, when going to plug in the wall charger, I accidently plugged it in such that only one 'pin' was pushed into the slots (specifically, the left-hand slot). It was like that for about a minute before I realized I goofed. Could it be that that somehow messed up the battery/cable/charging mechanism? I've already tested against two different wall chargers, so that isn't the problem, but I haven't removed anything else.
Anybody have any idea what's going on, and possibly how to fix it? I'd rather not have to unroot and go to AT&T, but if I have to...
my desire hd started shownig problems with charging a few days ago when i plugged it in. The orange light was on and i left it for charging as i usually did but when i came back to it after an hour the battery level was even lower than before i charged it.... i took the battery out rebooted the phone tried again but still the same thing... then i moved the connector a bit and stood by the phone,,, the battery started charging... but yesterday i tried everything but couldnt get it to charge... tried a different battery and cable but still it showed the orange light though it wasnt charging... and soon it was out of battery and shut down... now it wont charge and boot up... ive tried cleaning the port but that didnt helped either... im really frustrated by this behaviour... if any one have had experience with such type of thing please help me...
I'm guessing: tried to wipe the battery statistics ClockworkMod?
Hey guys,
My HTC One M8 stopped charging normally a few weeks ago. I had it plugged in to charge one night, and suddenly I started to smell burning plastic, and the bottom of my phone was very warm. Sure enough, when I unplugged the charger it was all discolored and the metal part was scalding hot. Obviously my first suspicion was my charger, so I stopped using it and tried several others, and that's where my charging troubles started.
Now whenever I have it plugged in (no matter what charger I use), it says it's charging (i.e. the orange LED light is on and the battery icon in the status bar has the charging animation), but it will either not charge at all and actually lose percentage, or it will charge VERY slowly...as in 1% per 10-15 minutes. I'll plug it in before bed and when I wake up, it will have only charged 30-40%.
So obviously the charger isn't the problem, it's either the charging port or the battery itself. I doubt it's the battery though, because once the phone is unplugged and I'm using it during the day, the battery life is fine and there are no issues. I'm almost certain it's the port, so I'm probably going to open my phone up and try to replace it...but I want some opinions first. Does this sound like a charging port issue or a battery issue? I want to make sure before I go trying to replace parts
No clue, you answered the questions yourself already.
Good luck in getting it fixed !
Hi Guys,
I know there's a lot of threads about that Problem but Im really afraid of it.
I charged my SW3 to 99% while its ON. After that I turned it off to see if it charges till 100%. After this the surprise.. I turned it off while the charger was in or something it vibrated one time and turned off. I tried to turn it back on and no response even not a Vibration with / without charger. I left it for now without the charger to cool down but it's still not showing any sign of life even No Vibration with / without charger I just bought it from Amazon before two days and was charging it with a Samsung Galaxy plus one charger and when it was on it charged normal
I would appreciate every help Thanks !!
I finally fixed it it made me crazy... Even it was at 99% the battery drained very fast after an hour. So I did use the stock usb cable plugged it into the Sony Smartwatch 3 and connected it with the computer while its off. I wanted to reach 1% to turn it on. After I turned it on I used a normal charger to charge the Sony sw3. Now it's charging.
This is a very weird bug. What weve learned never ever charge your SW3 while its off and you try to turn it on. It will come into a black Screen loop.
Solution finally: Don't charge your SW3 until it's cooled down and fully drained in about 2 1/2 hours. First use your usb cable and Plug it in into the computer and Connect it with the SW3 while its off and charge it to 1?. Then Plug the cable out and turn your SW3 on and when its on you can start to use a normal charger.
Hope this helps...
It's creepy but totally real. It worked to me. I was change the usb source charge immediately after logo of smartwatch, and now it is working properly. Thanks for tip.
