This has happened to everyone who rooted their S8. I'm not sure there is a work out that will display 100%. I'm also not sure if your phone is truly only charging to 80% or fully charginging but only displaying 80%.

It seems to only be top 80 because it dies fast as hell

That's the compromise of rooting. 80% is what you're suck with.

I just successfully rooted my new Verizon S8 Plus using the posted SamFail method.

rooted and charging over 80%
At first with Samfail would never charge above 80 , But now with Sampwnd it will charge over 80% when either connected by usb for tethering to laptop or with stock fast charger. And it def seems to last longer when reading above the 80% marker.

Very slow charging

I've contacted Samsung about this, they told me to disconnect the battery for 30 seconds and then power up again. It works, but now I have to do this every day. The phone indicates that the battery is charging. Sometimes it will charge very slowly (15% in 8 hours) or charge normally then stop (at around 50-60%). I'm getting frustrated. I'm using the T-Mobile version on AT&T and I'm not sure if I can go to the T-Mobile story (as Samsung recommended) to get it exchanged, seeing as I am not one of their customers.
Anyone else experiencing this? Any tips?
I'm running stock rooted, no T-Mobile bloat but still have S-Pen apps.
Thanks
Edit: I seem to have wandered into the Sprint section by mistake. I have no idea how, since I always browse the T-Mobile. Sorry about this, and thanks for not killing me as I might have.

Is it charging slowly through the wall or through the usb cable plugged into a computer? If it is indeed the usb cable, you'll want to find a custom kernel with the charging rate upped form 500mA to something more like 900mA. I'd link you to the Sprint version, but I see you are using T-Mobile.

I'm using the wall charger, always. I should have mentioned that. Is there no risk of damaging the battery by changing the charging rate? Also, what could account for the fact that it used to charge just fine?
are you using the oem charger that came with the phone? The oem is a 5A charger that will charge the phone fast.

2A charger not 5. 5 would be pretty dangerous.

[Q] Slow fast charge?

Is everyone really getting the 50% charge in 30 mins? It feels like I am getting about 1% per 1 min of charge time on average. Not sure if that is normal or I have a defect somewhere? Also, is fast charging safe to use for every charge session or is it meant to be used once in a while for emergencies? Thank you.
yes my phone will go from zero to 100% in an hour no problem when using charger that came with phone

Really? Did it charge like that from the very beginning or did it take a few charges to get to that speed? I think it takes me like 1.5-2 hrs from real low to full charge with fast charge enabled.

I used to get those insanely fast charge times; however, recently my phone has been charging slower (with fast charging on). Not only that, but, for some reason, the original wall adapter stopped working twice now. The first time it freaked me out because I thought my phone was messed up, but it turned out that everything was working except the adapter. Then later, I found out that if I reboot my phone with the adapter plugged into the wall, the charger will magically start working again! This worked for one or two charges. Today, I found that my phone was, again, charging extremely slow. Not only that, but my phone stopped charging after around 50% and the adapter is broken once more. I've tried the reboot thing three times and it didn't work again T: So now I'm kind of worried my phone might be defective?
Has this happened to anyone else with charging issues?

I haven't ran into anything like that yet. Who is your carrier? Maybe you can take in your charger and battery to get it replaced? Can you try charging with a different quick charging phone or something to narrow down if it's the phone or charger's fault?

Although I am fairly certain that my issue was the wall adapter portion of the charger, I just found it strange that the fast charging function failed to work properly around the same time when my wall adapter started to fail. Hopefully I am right and nothing else was wrong, but I thought that I would say something in-case I was wrong
As for getting it replaced... I bought my Verizon Note 4 at BestBuy off-contract and when I went there, they claimed to not have any in stock. They never really bothered to ask if I wanted to replace it even though I brought all my receipts and junk so I just took that as I wouldn't be getting a replacement haha :crying:
If anything I'll probably end up just buying another fast charger from samsung later, but for now slow charging is fine I guess. The fast charging did make both my device and charger hot, so maybe that was the problem?
edit:
I do not have any other quick charging devices (to my knowledge), but the wall adapter - combined with various other cables - continued to fail with my other phones as well.

Weird, I need like 1.5 hrs to get from 15% to full on fast charge and about 1.75 hrs for 15% to full on slow charge.
i timed my 1st charge. 57 min from 0 to 100. phone turned on and screen off.
Yep, to me that's the best feature. No more battery switching.
I even bought the Verizon vehicle charger with fast charge, and it works just as quick

Do you know if it's safe to use fast charge for every charge up? If it shortens battery life over time, I'd like to know this now and only use fast charge sparingly.
Yes. It shortens battery life. By using the only charger they give you, you essentially cut your battery life in half. It's a conspiracy by Samsung and the makers of the materials used the batteries

Pretty sure that was sarcasm. I'm less sure about your comment, though. ;P
I read it in American Android, first December issue. They did a study. Only way to avoid the battery dissipation was if you only used the fast charger at night, and Sundays after noon, but before 1pm PST. fascinating article. It's amazing what a group of students at Yale who love Android can actually accomplish.
I think I can work around that charging schedule. I am also going to subscribe to that magazine now.

Slow Charging Issues

For the past few days, I've noticed very slow charging on my Pixel even if it says "Charging Rapidly". However it would say it will take around 3 hours to fully charge. When fast charging works, usually clocks at 1 hour and 30 minutes.
I really don't know what can be causing the issue. It's the original charger, and cable. Normally removing the cable and putting it again would fix the issue but it's becoming a common thing for it to take 3 hours.
I remember a similar issue on my Nexus 9 and cleaning the cache would completely fix the issue, but the Pixel XL is missing the Wipe Cache option in the recovery.
Any similar experiences?
On the OEM included charger?

Yup.
Could try a factory reset.. probably the only software related solution. I can't remember, but Chainfire may have said that the cache.img was one of the things that got removed in 7.1 so I don't even know if you could wipe it if you wanted to. You could also hit up Google support... maybe they'll send you a new charger to try. Make sure you're using the OEM cable too, at least for now, until you figure it out.
I had this exact issue with mine, factory reset / charging in safe mode didn't work.
Turned out to be a faulty usb cable but Google insisted on replacing the entire package (handset etc) Replacement works fine

If it makes you feel any better, Google exchange process is amazing.
Raised the return on mine about 4pm and the replacement was on my desk 9am the next morning, they also give you 14 days to send your old one back so you're it without a phone.
I use ampere to see what the charging rate is and I don't feel like the fast charge is that fast.... My 6p charged at a faster rate and my pixel charges at a faster rate using my Choetech smart charger. I'm going to have to drain the battery and see how long it takes to fully charge with the stock charger

Some phones ie lg v10 do not "fast charge" while screen is on (while youre looking at it) to avoid overheating. Ampere cant show max charging rate. I use a usb sleeve (usb doctor) that displays that info or turn on notification display
EDIT: Supposedly Pixel do not fast charge while in use either.

I think I can confirm this. Last night mine showed 27 minutes to charge from about 50% but after keeping the screen awake for about 30 seconds, it went up to 51 minutes.
I also find my Pixel charges very slow as well even though it says Charging Rapidly (OEM charger, cable). The GSM Arena review said they went from 0% to 46% in 30 minutes, I get more like half of that at most. I used Ampere and it said i was only charging at 710 mA.....

If you charge it from almost empty it charges very quick, but slows down once it gets nearer to full

Yes i started charging my phone when it was 4%, and when i looked at it about 20 minutes later it was only at 16%. I think it took about 3 hours to fully charge. The only modification I've made to the phone is unlock the Verizon bootloader and flash the P software (which was subsequently updated to V). I'm seriously wondering if the charger or cable is defective.

A70 "Super fast charging" ! Really ?

Hi guys,
For those having the A70, does the "Super Fast Charging" feature work for you ?
With the original provided charger (with the "Super Fast Charging" logo on it), I need 3 hours to go from 9% to 100%.
So that is 1% every 2 minutes...
I do not consider this a "Super fast". I think it is "Decent" but would not go above that...
For me, this a severe disappointment... Unless of course I am doing something wrong
Anyone else can share his results for Super fast charging here ?
Regards.
Your phone must have an error. Mine lasts about 1:20 to charge from about 15% to 100%.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your answer.
The phone... or the charger maybe ?
Is there something to enable to have that "Super Fast Charging" ?
Or something to not disable ?
If I can solve battery drain (not really lasting as I expect) and this, I will think again about keeping the phone.
So far, it's more a non keeper
Regards.

Hello . Do you charge it with the screen closed? Only then fast charging works! IF yes then something is wrong with either the cable or the charger .You could also try a factory reset !

Hi,
Thanks for the info => Super Fast Charging only with display off ?
So if I leave "Always On" it will not work ?
Maybe that is why...
Anyways, I did as you suggested : I have done a full factory reset, and I have installed the bare minimum of Apps.
We will see about battery drain an battery charging.
I'll keep you posted.
Best regards.

Hi Sufyan3D,
Thanks a lot for that info...
I've made sure that the fast charge is enabled.
So far, the device is still at 100% so I can't say if the problem is "solved", but I'll make sure to report if now it charges as it should
And also about battery drain...

That's correct! OK check it now and tell us! No battery drain, this thing is a beast! Keep us posted!

Hi,
So far, I cannot tell about the Fast charge.
But the phone is almost idle (really gently used) with "Always on" enabled.
It's been idle since about 3hours and battery is at 98%.
I consider this a rather good result.
Hope it'll stay as it is once I install all my apps...
If not, I'll try to track the culprit for the high battery drain.
Regards.
I have same problem, after reading your post, I drained my battery to 9% and charge, it so slow while charging.

Hi guys,
Well I think it is confirmed that my phone has a problem.
The battery drain is more than acceptable.
I drove my kid to school yesterday. It is a 80 minute trip to go there and come back.
While I drove her, I used the A70 as a GPS whilst it was connected to car audio with Bluetooth.
Battery drain in 80 minutes was a little less than 10% which is quite good I think...
Then I played a bit with the phone and went to bed.
This morning it still had 84% battery.
So that is about 2% battery drain overnight.
Not stellar but acceptable.
So I decided to hook it up.
The battery panel reports "Fast charging plugged in".
But after 40 minutes, I am still at 98% charge.
That means 40 minutes to get 10% battery.
I am aware that the last 10% are the longest, but still... 40 minutes for 10% ?
I will test with another charger to see if it is the phone or the charger...
Regards.

Download a free app called "Ampere" from the Play Store, to measure your charging current. Plug the phone into the charger then open the App to get the measurements. Post your result here and compare with other A70 owners.
App shows that my charging current is around 1100mah (with the 25w charger)
I landed here as I was surprised how slow my A70 was to charge. It takes around 3 hours to get from 15% to full, using the included Samsung 3A charger & original cable. Ampere shows the current trickling in at around 850mA. Super Fast Charging is enabled. My previous phone was a Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite which charged at around 2A according to Ampere.
PS I found this link which suggests most of the fast charging happens early in the cycle https://www.sammobile.com/2019/05/02/how-fast-is-samsung-25w-super-fast-charging
The Charger is rated at max 2.77 amps and 9 volts for fast charging. It will vary through the charging cycle though. Towards the end, above 80%, the charging will slow. How long does it take from 15% to 80% and what is the measurement in the middle of that?

Samsung A70 Failed!!
I think A70 is failed in all fields.
No porper GCam. And now batteries.
My device getting charged in around 4 hours with original cable and charger.
Now I think I invest 27k in wrong item. OnePlus 7 or realme 3 pro was far better than A70.
It's just name Samsung, nothing else. Blank box with tag of Samsung. Really disappointing with this.
Sorry to fans of Samsung devices. But I don't like this. After 2011 (Samsung Galaxy Y s5360), I think Samsung is better nowadays but I was wrong. I will never buy Samsung phone again.

I am not facing such issues in my device. Regarding development, for a device like a70, development is always slow. We have the source codes available. The only thing missing is developers onboarding to support the device. If at least 1 dev puts the kernel and device source codes and tree in github, I bet development will start soon after.

I took some readings with Ampere during a charge:
0 mins 8% battery 4050mA
30 mins 38% battery 1060mA
60 mins 52% battery 1050mA
90 mins 66% battery 1020mA
120 mins 81% battery 1080mA
150 mins 91% battery 1000mA
180 mins 100% battery
So 3h from nearly empty to full which is not exactly fast. Is this in line with what others get?

New device but slow charging ?

Hello guys,
Yesterday i bought this phone from Vodafone and flashed with a different country firmware which was more up2date,
Looking at the charging speed of this device is odd for me can anyone explain me what's happening ?
Right now he is 85% and it's only charging 1000mA~ and also in the ampere app it says Max. USB curr : 1200mA.
Superfast charging is enabled in the settings.
using original charger and cable.

Where are you measuring this? Super fast only works when the phone is locked. If its unlocked you'll get about 6w.

In the app that's call Ampere, it show's even max curr 1200mA, might be because of the firmware need to check it out tomorrow.

No, its because your phone is unlocked. Leave it locked and it'll charge much quicker. That app shows the same on mine - ignore it, it's wrong. I've verified mine with a plug in power meter

Yeah but the thing is , from 70-100% it took 2 hours?
That seems a while but the last 20-30% does take the longest to charge. It should charge at a quicker rate from 20-70%. I'd give it a few days for the battery to settle down and calibrate.

So monitored for a bit just to see what's happening,
in 22mins > 9% with super fast charging on
in 18mins > 9 > with super fast charging off
i am going back to the shop and gt another device
Right, ive just checked mine. 17-84% in 57 minutes. if yours isnt doing that then either something is keeping the phone from sleeping or you have a hardware issue.
Are you sure that you have stable electricity, have you checked? My phone need 1h and 50-55 minutes from 0% to 100%.
Did calibrate the battery after flashing new firmware?
Are you 100% sure that the firmware you flashed is from the exact same version of the phone you have?
And since you flashed the device, you dont really have warranty, so good lucky with lying in the shop.

Flashing doesn't invalidate any warranty, not if your flashing an official firmware
The best way to get fast charging and feel it is to charge while your phone is turned off , that way i feel the speed of fast charging , if you do not want to turn phone off, at least close the screen to get faster results, this is my experience with charging a70 till now
