Not sure if was just a bug, but last night I put my phone on charge before bed and battery was at 25% I woke up in the morning to my suprise battery was only at 27%, I unplugged USB and re-plugged in again and it charged like normal.
Well, I had the same issue when I woke up this morning except in my case, the power brick has died completely and I am trying to determine if the battery has as well...
It does say it's charging on the lock screen when I connect it to a computer but in 10 minutes I haven't seen the percentage go up
FYI I have charged the device overnight only 9 times since I got it, GREAT JOB HTC !

Did you have ultra battery saving mode enabled to turn on automatically? Last time I had this enabled my phone wouldn't charge on a stock rom and stock charger. It only happened in 24 hour span, and there were times during that time when I plugged it in and wouldn't charge. I was on the latest update and after I disabled ultra battery saving mode I never had any charging problems
Nope all berry saving modes was off. It charged fine last night from 40%
I going to try run battery down today and see. Very strange

I can hear some noise coming from the charger while it's working louder than the M9's charger and a sound whenever I disconnect the charging cable from the port, like if something was a little loose. Are those normal things?
I recently had this issue too on a totally stock Verizon phone. Phone wouldn't charge until a reboot.

I assume you guys are all using stock charger and cable to charge? I think QC 3.0 can be picky about the cable used. Haven't had any issues with the 10, but previous phone was a lumia 950xl. It was only QC 2.0, I used a third party cable with it, had a lot of bother, then used stock cable and everything worked perfectly.
I had this happening once and the issue was for some reason the cable wasn't plugged to the wall adapter properly. I removed it and plugged it and it started working. I don't think it's something to get worried about.
Not sure about the noise though

That's normal. It's a switching-mode power supply (SMPS for short) and there's some coil whining in there. Quite literally business as usual.
Not sure if there has been any update on this, but I'm experiencing the same issue as well. I have a stock charger + stock cable as well as two Anker chargers (both QC3, one wall and one car charger) and I use iOrange-E cables (56k ohm) with the Ankers. I only have this problem with the stock cable and stock charger, the 3rd party chargers haven't had any issues yet. I will plug the phone in for the night and a majority of the time (it's happened 5 or so times in the past week) it will charge for about 10 minutes or less before it just stops charging. It acts like it's been unplugged entirely. I have to unplug and replug the charger to the wall a couple of times before it will start charging again. It will again only charge for a short period of time before it stops and repeats this. Since it's only happening with the one charger I'm left to believe that maybe the charger is just faulty. Anyone else still having this problem or has come to the same conclusion?
Yes!!! I've had this issue with the stock charger as well... very weird. Just doesn't charge and have to unplug it multiple times to get it to work
I also have an anker wall and car charger along with an anker cable... they work fine
Verizon stock phone... hasn't happened since ota

Started having the issue a few days ago. Phone will not charge until I plug it in and then reboot it. Doesn't matter what cable, charger, etc... I use, and yes I have tried them all. Stock, anker, qc 3 certified, non certified, doesn't matter. It behaves the same no matter what. Even went back to stock rom and same issue. Tried a couple of different kernels too.

This now the only way my phone will charge. I have probably ordered 3 sets of QC 3 certified chargers(car and wall), the stock one that came with the phone, probably 20 different cables, even some being micro USB with adapters, flashed all the way back to stock unrooted, wiped sd card, formatted data, tried several different kernals and roms. The only thing I have not done is go back S-On for completely out of the box stock, just dont feel it would make a difference at this point. Did yours simply just start working again dottat?

So, I'm not that new to rooting. I've been playing around with SRF for quite some time, as well as playing around with a few other phones. I decided to update to GB as the update had rolled out this morning. I updated successfully & rooted it, even added ACS ICS v4.
Now, here is where I'm having this battery issue. Before I updated to GB, I had no problem using the wall charger. Now that I've updated, the wall charger will not work. I've tried rebooting my phone, reflashing the ROM, toggling debugging mode, all of it. My USB is working, but nothing from the wall charger. I know for a fact this charger is good (it's not the stock one, it's a different samsung one) as it works on my boyfriends epic (we didn't play around with his yet).
Is anyone else having this issue? or am I the only one? What are some suggestions to fix this?
Thanks~

Use the stock charger, it seems code in the GB update enforced this. Just two days ago, my cousin updated to GB and reported this very issue, but she was using a Nexus S 4G wall charger, she had no issues charging it when I handed her my Stock Epic Charger.
P.S. the nexus s 4g charger charged her phone regardless, just no red led notification with only the battery icon in the status bar as proof of charging. However, I did not check the specs of the Nexus S charger, give a phone a charger with too much, or too little voltage, and you could eventually mess it up.

You could try looking up one on Amazon, prices vary for the stock charger, it doesn't have to be the same cable, just that wall charger bit would of been valuable to hang on to.

I've noticed this, too. My phone would physically charge, but aside from that, there was no physical notification that it was plugged in. Even the battery usage would show the battery life increasing, but not register it as "Charging"
Has anyone noticed this with car chargers? I have a Sprint charger (via Amazon), and things still work fine with that. Also things work fine with the Blackberry USB cord when plugged into a computer (Linux, PC, Mac). But when that goes into a generic AC to USB converter, no dice.
Well actually, when I had it plugged in via wall charger it said it showed the little notification charging, but the battery was draining and would not hold a charge.
I found a samsung charger (not the stock one) and tried that. It worked perfect, LED came on and it actually held a charge.
The only thing now is that it seems my battery will not stop draining. It has been off the charger for 15 minutes, and batter is already down 10% with LIGHT use (I checked my VM, that's it).
I ordered the 1800mAh OEM battery yesterday so I'm hoping to swap this out and see if that may be the problem. Any other suggestions as to how I could fix that if this isn't the issue? ;( le sigh.

Once you get that new battery, charge it with the phone off, when 100% charged, calibrate the battery.

I just got my phone yesterday, and the Samsung charger was working fine until this afternoon when I noticed that the battery was going down even though it was plugged in. I tried different usb chords and different wall sockets, but nothing worked until I switched to my old HTC Dinc charging adapter.
However, now it will only charge for 30 seconds. It will only continue to charge if it's connected to my computer.
I have the GT-N7100 rooted with stock rom
Anyone have an idea what could be causing this?
Edit: After some more testing I found that the charge light stays on if I plug it into the wall while it's turned off. While it's turned on it still only charges for 30 seconds though. Could that mean its a software issue rather than a hardware problem?
Edit 2: I just did a factory reset and the problem is still there, so I guess I will return it for another unless someone knows how to fix this.
Try a different cable first. I've had problems with mine, so same could be yours.
Sent from my GT-N7100
Did you use the charger and cable provided with the box?
Did you root the phone yourself, or was it already rooted when you bought it.
Seeing as you've bought it yesterday, and you're new here, my beliefs are you probably bought one pre-rooted, and as such, perhaps didn't come with all the official gear.
What does 1 post have to do with newness? A lot of people don't post unless something is really bad(charging for only 30 seconds) and just read.
OP sounds like you need to Odin back to complete stock, not just factory reset from phone.

The charger that came with the box seems to be dead. When I plug something into it nothing happens. It only worked on the day I got the phone.
I got the phone from newegg and rooted it myself. I'm not new here, this is just my first post. I don't usually post unless I have something to contribute, or I have a problem I can't solve on my own.
I flashed back to complete stock firmware (no root) and then did factory reset again, but the problem is still there.
I also noticed that even though it's charging when powered off, it only charges VERY slowly. maybe about 1% every 20 mins.
I can't really think of anything else to do for it, so I'm going to see I newegg will let me exchange it.

I see the Dinc charger is an 1A charger.
I had random charging issues when I used my 1A chargers from my Mytouch 4G.
Every now and then the screen would turn on and the charging would stop. Mostly happened at work for some reason.
I bought better (i.e. higher amperage) chargers and haven't had the problem since.

Thanks, I didn't know that. That's a good idea. I'll go get a new charger and hope that works.
This is why I use a wall battery charger and just swap out the batteries. My rezound had a charging if CWM was used as recovery. I 2nd or 3rd the full wipe and return to stock and start troubleshooting.
@ChodTheWacko
Thanks a lot man. I just got a new 2.1A charger and it seems to be working fine now.
The last three mornings I've gotten up and grabbed my phone to find it not fully charged (46%, 71%, and 56%).
Each time the phone said it was charging on the lock screen but would never go higher than whatever it was stuck on.
I tried pulling it off the charger and plugging it back in again, but still it would not charge past some seemingly random and arbitrary value.
Rebooting the phone fixed the issue each time.
wtf? I don't really expect anybody to have any advice for me but still, wtf?
Going to try to get the phone replaced at Costco as I bought it less than 90 days ago.
Has anybody seen anything like this before?
I know that some samsung phone that i owned would have a protection against overcharge. It simply stop charging when it reach 100% and it still show as charging. However, stop charging at 56% never saw that.
Actually this happened to me the first time and only time a couple nights ago.. was sure that the phone was plugged in and charging but woke up and it was at 46% for some reason.
I've since rebooted and haven't had any trouble since so just figured its a one off.. but if its happened to you a couple times I would suspect maybe a problem with the cable or power plug adapter..
Don't know that any rooting or unlocking would be the cause.. (I am rooted)
My wife also has an Optimus G and we switched chargers/cords but I still have the issue.
I can't see how rooting could cause this problem.
Anyway, I'll try to get my device replaced. Thanks for the replies.

I am experiencing the same thing. It has happened 3x since I got the LGOG back in December. The previous times I thought I didn't have it plugged in correctly. Today I woke up after leaving the phone charged for 6 hours and it was at 23%. I rebooted the phone which I have done in the past and it would start charging, but today it didn't want to charge at all. The charging icon was on but the battery was discharging.
So I decided to cover the basics by swapping out the micro-usb cable with an old blackberry micro usb cable and it ended up charging normally again. The last 10% charge I used the LG micro usb cable again and it was able to charge normally.
Not sure if its the micro usb cable or the LG power adapter or may be the phone.
Any thoughts folks?
Again I have a feeling it could be the cable or power plug being used.. especially if you were able to plug in another cable and it worked ok..

Coincidentally, I also did some experimentation today with various chargers and cables and found my problem was specific to the cable that came with my optimus g.
Using the offending cable, I replicated the charging problem on my wife's optimus g using both the optimus g charger and my i9000 charger (thus ruling out the actual charger).
Such a strange problem though, the cable functions normally when transferring files or using adb shell, and seems to be able to charge my i9000 just fine.
Today I was able to fully charge my phone with the LG micro usb cable and adapter. No problems.
May be a phone problem? Its not consistent though.
This happened to me again last night. Starting my day with 10% battery :/
I am going to grab a different cable and see what happens.

I haven't had the problem since I replaced the cable. Before replacing the cable it happened every night and a few times during the day whenever I charged. I'm convinced the cable was the culprit.
I am seeing the same problem. My phone will only charge to arbitrary levels then stop. It's not a cable issue as it has done this with three other cables. Sometimes it just takes unplugging and plugging it back in. Other times I have to shut my phone off for it to charge. It also works to switch chargers (even though I have replicated the problem on all chargers) or do a reboot.

My problem has returned with a new cable, but not as frequently. I don't know. It only happens once in maybe 30 charges.
I know i'm bringing this thread back from the dead. Anyone get anywhere with this? Has anyone had any long term problems with the battery or charging?

Hello everyone,
I am currently going through hell with my sph-l710. This all started a few days ago.
My phone refuses to charge sometimes, but the charging light comes on. I have never gotten the phone to charge above around 20%. I took it to sprint. First they said it was a software issue but they wouldn't look at it because i was on a custom rom (Liquidsmooth) and rooted. So I went home and did a reflash of md4 via odin.
This didn't fix the issue.
So I went back in. This time, they said it was the battery. So I bought a brand new battery.
That didn't help the issue.
So I went back in, and they said they had to keep in for an hour to see if I simply needed a new phone. When I came back, they said it worked fine on multiple chargers and they got it up to 56%. So I came back home thinking maybe they were just covering their asses for the previous times they couldn't figure it out.
That didn't help the issue.
It once again wouldn't charge and while I was bored I flashed cleanbean v4.0. Still not charging properly. I noticed that while it was plugged into my PC, it got up to like 30% so I got excited, but when I rebooted the phone after unplugging it, it went down to 17% immediately.
I'm literally pulling my hair out over this. I have used my mom's charger for her htc evo and that won't charge it either.
Can someone pelase tell me what in the world is wrong with my phone??
Cheers
The charger, do not use a charger for HTC, make sure you use the charger that came with the phone. USB charging from the computer is slow. But your wall charger should have it fully charged within an hour. If not then your charger is bad or the cable is bad.

Check the port on the phone for pocket fuzz, Try a different usb cable, try a different charger. It's likely one of these is the problem. If not, is your phone running hot? If so, maybe an app on the phone is drawing so much current that the charger can't keep up. What does the battery usage display in settings say? Does it show something eating up battery that shouldn't be?

I used to think the same thing, but when I use my Kindle's charger or my old Evo 4G's charger, my phone doesn't charge, it just maintains the same level. My Palm Pre's charger, though, works like a charge. The Funkiest Ed wasn't saying that only Samsung chargers would work, but that it's likely the charger doesn't work anymore.
Hey, so i just received the android 10 update. I was already running the android 10 beta for some time now. After the update, my wall charger (Tronsmart, type C with PD) stopped working. I was able to rapid charge my pixel with the same charger earlier, but now it simply stopped charging. I used 3 different type C to type C cables with that power brick, but pixel doesnt get charged whatsoever. I tried using some cables that i had lying around, which are not really the top of the line kind of things but still usually get the job done. These are usb C to A cables that I have used previously with my pixel. However, after the update, the phone shuts down within a couple of minutes, if i connect any of those cables. I searched around and some people have had the same issue after android 9 beta update. Using an old toothbrush, i gently cleaned the charging port, but nothing changed. Right now, i am finally able to charge phone with my PC using an old type C to A cable that shipped with my old HTC 10. However, my computer says usb device not recognized and as you`d expect, its charging pretty slowly. I even tried resetting the phone but the problem
Any ideas as to what might have caused this? Any help in this regard is greatly appreciated.
TIA

I had to RMA my first phone due to this issue. If you google search pixel 2 xl charging issues you'll find many people who have run into this issue. All of them pretty much end with "RMA phone".
It started out my third-party charger would reboot my phone the moment it was plugged in. My original charger stopped charging the phone soon after.
My computer would only sometimes (1 out of 15 - 20 tries) read my phone so I could unroot it. All of the other times it would pop up as unrecognized.
This is typically due to a hardware issue (loose/damaged port circuitry because of bad quality components or soldering). It gets worst and worst 'til nothing works and phone reboots when you connect the cable... and RMA is the only solution.
IMHO, mainstream usb-c operating amperage is too hard on the ports, specially due to heating. I would prefer to have a not so fast charging technology that would not damage the phones. And yes, this happens on many usb-c phones, not only Pixels.
But hey, maybe you have a different problem related to software
My phone is powering down sometimes,when i plug the charging cable.This happend after android Q update.

Rotating the USB-C cable helps. One orientation (no charging / or slow charging at best) the other orientation rapid charging.
Sadly it appears a number of our phones appear to be having charge port issues as they age...

Not sure if it's because I recently flashed the latest 10 factory image (2 days ago) but my device charges on all the cables, chargers and on the PC as it did prior to flashing the 10 factory image, I even get the charging rapidly notification...
Did this happen immediately to those who are experiencing it? Or did it happen after some time on 10?
Well, glad I came across this thread. I've been having troubles with charging in the last few days also.
TL;DR: Starting this past Sunday, my chargers would report "charging slowly" and not really charge the phone, whether in normal mode, safe mode, or off. Updated to 10 on release day. They all magically started working last night.
Story version: Woke up Sunday and pulled my Pixel 2 XL off the charger to find it at the same percentage battery was when I plugged it in. When I plugged it back in, it reported charging slowly. It's plugged into an Anker USB C to A, and the Anker IQ two port charger. My Wife's PIxel 2 was plugged into the other port, with another of the same cable. It was charging fine. I unplugged hers and plugged mine in, reported charging slowly. I grabbed my Anker battery pack, and used the included USB C to A cable that I've used before, got "charging slowly." I rebooted the phone and got the same results. I powered it down and left it charging, same results. I tried safe mode, same thing. All these chargers/cables/battery packs work perfectly fine on my Wife's Pixel 2.
I was in the car and tried my cable/adapter in there. That one worked. I have a CableMatters 2.0 amp lighter adapter and an Anker braided USB C to A cable. I brought the cable and phone in the house, and tried the cable with my existing Anker 2 port wall charger and it worked. Weird why it would work for my Wife's but not mine, but oh well, at least I could charge the phone. Later on, I took the car cable and connected to the battery pack, charging slowly. I brought it back to the Anker wall charger, charging slowly. Tried my laptop and PC USB 3.0 ports, charging slowly. I brought the car cable and the house cable back to the car, and both cables worked just fine in the car. So, at this point, it doesn't appear to be a cable issue, but something intermittent with my chargers.
I dug up a Monoprice USB A charger I had, that has a 2.0 amp port. Tried that last night, and every cable I have charged normally with it. Just to further test, I then took the cables back to the Anker wall charger, and it worked also. To make it more frustrating, the Anker battery pack also started playing nicely and charging. I feel like it's a software issue with the phone, but I have no viable proof of it. I upgraded to 10 on launch day and have had no issues since. The only other thing I did was install Accubattery after I had an idea to try and monitor charging rates.
I did the October 2019 update and noticed this morning zero charging over night. I use an Anker multi-port brick with 2-ports fast charging. Thanks for the Accubattery idea. It shows 1 Amp charging off the 2.4 amp port. I may have to roll back the October update if I can.
I have noticed over the last few months that the screen uses a huge amount of battery. I can see the percentage drop as I scroll through the news.
Guysss I found the solution ! I had the same problem but this easy fix helped me ! Hope it's gonna work for you.
First you have to drain your battery to 1 or 2 %
Second step, hard reboot your phone (long press lock for 10 s)
As it's without battery it won't reboot but it will show the low battery sign.
Plug in your fast charger and it will show the sign that it's charging, wait a few seconds, boot your phone without unplugging the cable. And that's it. It should work.
I can't believe in so happy it got fixed for me I was suffering for two weeks after the update and no response from Google. The firs time in long time I see 70%>>>

Update : if you don't want to wait for your battery to drain, you can do this instead.
Long press volume down and power for 10 sec.
It will take a screen shot (normal) but wait for the 10 sec.
You will have a menu, choose using the volume up and down to navigate "power off" ( by default it will be power on).
Plug your fast charger and it should start charging

ive tried doing the second option and i never get a menu, it just straight up reboots.
my problem seems to be similar to those stated here before. i cant use my original charger that came with my pixel.
i can use the usb c port on this (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0778JNN4B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) with any of the cables i have. none of the cables will allow me to use the original charge brick anymore. i can use the only usb c -> a cable that i have. (its the standard one that comes with the nintendo switch pro controller) i even tested with the nintendo switch dock cable and it seems to work fine. i am outside of warranty so i cant have google fix it any longer(literally started issues 20 days after my warranty ended...). im gonna try draining it down till it dies and try my original charger again to see if it will do it but i was wondering if anyone else has come up with any other solutions to this problem. im thinking about reflashing it to see if that will do it and if that doesnt maybe go to a custom rom to test that even just wondering if anyone else has tried these options so i can have an idea if its gonna possibly work for me or not
hi man.
So weird you couldn't get that menu, try holding for 20 seconds instead of 10 seconds. It should work keep doing it until the phone goes off completely.
Trust me I did it again and it worked. Every time fast charging stops working I do this trick and it works.

idk, i have tried holding it even past the point of it turning off and still no menu, but i finally got it to die completely and it still didnt seem to be working on the chargers i was having issues with, after going for a ride in my car and using AA oddly enough it seems to be working fine, no idea.
Try holding the UP volume button and power.
Mine just started doing this, I left it plugged into the plane the whole trip flying overseas. (Probably shouldn't have done that)
