I've seen reports of this before, and it always seems to have been a hardware issue. You could try a factory reset, but it's unlikely to help.
first step try as many different leads as you can as it could be faulty leads, it's the most common problem but as you say it's happening with multiple things it probably isn't this.
had similar problems on other phones alcohol and a thin pick has tended to fix it when I've needed to do it.
one way I've found that works to clean it out assuming the USB lead is going in fully, (if not use a thin pick as it could be a bit fluff in the bottom of the socket stopping it engaging fully) is to turn off the phone get a disconnected USB lead, (very important it isn't plugged into any source of power during) dip the end that plugs into the phone in alcohol (proper cleaning alcohol not just drink as it evaporates quick) put the plug in and out a couple of times, let it dry out then repeat a couple of times, if it's just dirty contacts this will clean it, just make sure when connecting the USB lead is just damp and not dripping to avoid any flooding of the socket.
outside ofm that I would assume it's a hardware fault.

Thanks for your help...
Fixed it by using electronic cleaner spray its made my day ,moisture alert appears and after four hours gone after that its works!!:laugh:, i dont know if its bad but it fixed this problem
was possibly just a short in the socket due to dampness for a while, but the port should be waterproof like the rest of the phone really so nothing should have really got in the phone.
but if it's working it likely was just dirty contacts.

Thank you for providing detailed instructions on port contact maintenance. I started having issues right after updating to A11 so assumed ultra fast charging on my note 10+ broke due to that update. However, just to be sure i ordered new oem block and cable and the ultra fast charging began to rapidly cycle from on to off, so i did more research and came across your reply. I dipped both ends of the old usbc cable into a half oz of reagent grade alcohol 99%+ shook them off so there wasnt a full drop of alcohol in them and slid the cable in and out a few times. Then let it dry for a min and plugged it back in to the new block using new cable. It seems to be stable now, however as i write this reply, it cycled twice between on and off, so I'll keep trying to clean the port and report back if successful.
Confirming that cleaning the contacts on the cable and phone using reagent grade alcohol and a thin pick worked to resolve the issue. Examination of the port and cable with the naked eye did not reveal fouling. Keep that in mind when deciding on trying the cleaning.

I have my phone plugged into the wall, lighter, or pc it will start charging. However, after several minutes it will start connecting and disconnecting itself, even when sitting on a table without any outside interference or touching it. This is with several different cable wires, chargers and even a dock. Anyone know if it's likely to be microUSB or a battery issue? It's unrooted and running stock KitKat.
Mine did the exact same thing, and would wake me up in the middle of the night with the beeping. Eventually, it stopped charging altogether, the night before I was supposed to go on a 400 mile road trip!
My solution was to clean the USB port on the phone. I used a product called DeOxIt and a small metal pick from the garage (I suppose a small paperclip would also work). Power down the phone, and remove the battery. Apply a drop of DeOxIt to the paperclip, and GENTLY scrub back and forth over the USB connector inside the phone (you'll need to get both sides - top & bottom). After that, unplug your charging cord, and apply a drop into the USB connector, and then work it in and out of the phone a dozen times. Let everything dry thoroughly, reassemble, and reboot!
I haven't had the issue since, and it's been almost a full year.
Hello
I've had my HTC one m8 for over 2 years now and recently the micro USB port has been acting up. It only works , i.e can charge and transmit data, when the cable plugged in is at a certain angle, usually it has to be bent downwards (with the screen facing up), but not too far down. Sometimes it needs to be bent to the right or left as well. I've tried moving the connector around in the port with a flat head screwdriver, but it doesn't change anything. Since my warranty ended in November, is there anything in can do?
Try a different cable.
If that doesn't help try cleaning your port from any debris and those small pieces of cloth if you haven't done it already. If this still happens then you probably need to replace it.

Tried 3 different cables, cleaned out some dust with a screwdriver too. Guess I'll have to look for a replacement
Well, the last thing you can do is to turn the phone off and carefully clean the port with isopropyl alcohol or something similar used to clean electronics..
Hi XDA community,
firstly thank you for your all your great jobs here!
I own a P605 Galaxy Note 10.1 2014. It has been "soft"-rooted (through kernel bug, without KNOXing the device) but it has probably gone out of warranty.
I experence some serious issues with any USB-related operation, let me enumerate them:
1) USB Charging: when powered off the tablet charges normally (but slowly), when powered on the tablet charges (fastly) until the screen switches off, then it stops charging.
2) USB OTG: when attatching an OTG cable, the device detect it but when attaching an USB drive nothing happens
3) USB to PC: on a Windows OS, attaching the tablet results in a "Device Descriptor" error, even with the tablet in download mode, so any firmware flashing operation is impossible. On Linux OS there's a similar error, related to device descriptors.
Obviously, when I bought it everything worked fine. Sadly, I suspect an hardware issue... I'm asking you any kind of help: tests to indentify exactly the problem and, hopefully, a solution.
P.S. I've already tried changing USB cable/USB port/PC/charger/mood/wearing/house...:crying:
Hello , i too have this problems, do you run also Lollipop 5.1.1`? Any solution found?
1) If not using the original charger/cable (or non compliant) then there's a possibility thad the data pins of the charger are not shortened. You need a charger compliant with our tablets or data-pins-shorted cable. (you can do it yourself but the cable will only be used for charging)

2) try Es file explorer (remember ntfs is not supported)
3) install kies or try

(just the usb driver)
I have exactly the same case as #1 and I fixed finally. It's because of the bad contact of the usb cable. Open the back cover (gentle and slowly prevent broke it), disconnect the usb cable from the adapter near camera, wash your hand and keep it dry, touch the golden finger one or two times with your cleaned finger, then connect it back with a little push it to the end, make sure it lock firm. ( I also use a piece 3M plastic tape to stick on the surface ). Power on and test, no problem and then close back the back cover. My machine no more that problem again. Sorry for my english not so good, and hope this can help.
With Davidmueller's Lineage and RR there is a (recurring) charging problem with usb cables. You need a cable like the one supplied, where the second GND line on the m-usb plug is not connected. The plug of the white original cable has the contact missing, i bought a recent, black Samsung cable with 5contacts,also working. None of the other cables i tried, did. The problem was there almost a year ago, got solved and re-occured during the last updates.
Results after the replace of the usb module.
As suggested by Jan&March, I tried cleaning the usb module connector on the motherboard. It solved EVERY issue for about 3 days, then they came up again. So I thought that maybe, touching and cleaning the connector, there was some bad contact on the cable. I bought a replacement part for the usb module. It has been working for about 2 weeks before showing the same issues today. I hope I'm helping someone with my experience. Any suggestions?
The pcb jack may have bad solder joints. I never had the case open, but i think the usb and display connectors belong to the components bearing most of the pressure exerted on the back cover. Except the battery and the metal shieldings on the pcb stand out more,which can only be told if you have the back cover removed.

Thanks, so what do you recommend?
That would require re-soldering. It's hard to tell, it's less likely if the connector's aren't among the most prominent parts under the back cover and won't make contact with it. I can't tell from the pics i've seen.

this just did it for me. i think the bracket that secures the ribbon cable isn't exerting enough pressure on the cable so maybe some data pins may not be in contact.
Hi everyone,
A few days ago, this problem started to show on my device.
When I'm charging it, it says "charging", but even the slightest movement can stop the phone from charging.
Sometimes it even toggles *charging*/*not charging* without me moving it at all.
For example, if the battery is on <15%, the phone will vibrate - so when I charge it when it's below 15%, if I touch it, it vibrates every 5 seconds or so.
It's really terrible... I once left the phone to charge for a few hours just to come back and find out it wasn't charging.
I've tried different USB cables, power sockets, chargers, so I guess it has to be a problem with my device.
I'm pretty confident it's a hardware issue, and I bought it around 10 month ago, so warranty should still be up. However, I don't remember anything particular that could damage the charging port, and this started all of a sudden (a day earlier it was charging perfectly).
I'd like to hear some opinions, solutions, and if any of you have had this before.
Thanks,
Barak
It's definitely the charging port, maybe it was faulty from factory, send it in warranty
Get a dress making pin or something tough and really pointy and carefully scratch inside the port. Be careful of the plastic inside. Do not bend it or snap it off. Do not scratch or pick at the pins on the top of the plastic. Only scratch around the plastic.
Shine a torch in and see if you can find any loose debris that you may have dislodged. Keep doing it until you can't get no more fluff etc out of it and try plugging the charger in again.
It should have a nice solid clunk as the plug goes in and seats properly now.
Hey, thanks alot for your replies. @shivadow I've tried cleaning the port like you said , this maybe helped a little but the problem is not solved.
P.S : I noticed that there is a position which is problematic.
When the phone is connected to the charger, if I hold the cable with my hand, and push it upwards (I exert force on the cable in a direction vertical to the screen). This is when it stops charging. Just stating this if it might help you diagnosing something specific.
Anyway I think I'll be sending it back to the lab this week or next week, thanks a lot for your help!
Either a faulty cable, plug or socket. If it happens with other cables it'll be the socket. If you know for a fact that the plug is seating correctly but you still have the problem then either worn pins or worn socket.
So it turns out that when I tried to check whether the charger, or the USB cable is to blame, I tried 2 different cables, but they were both faulty, which made me think the problem is with my HTC.
Now I tried changing phones and still had the same issue, so I tried more usb cables, and voila! Works like a charm
Thanks for the help @shivadow, much appreciated.
Always blame the cable first!
Saturday night I had my phone on the charger overnight. When I woke up, it was still low and had not charged. I played with the cable and got it to start charging, but not properly. I figured it was probably a bad cable or charger, not sure why though. So I used a zero lemon case that worked fine. My charger in the car worked okay too. Fast forward to this morning and the phone now displays as being plugged into usb and charging something - see attached. Plugging in any other chargers changes nothing. Powering off will show a charging icon. I doubt it's a software issue but it could be I suppose, but I suspect I have a bad charging port. It's currently wireless charging, but still displaying the message in the status bar. Stock ROM, custom kernel. Any ideas? I will probably try a reflash tonight to see if it changes anything. Edit: not a kernel issue, switched kernels and same issue. I'm almost certain this is a bad usb port but I've never experienced a bad one before.
Is it still attached to the Zero Lemon case? It looks like the phone is charging it. If nothing is attached, then the port might be goofed. Did you try cleaning any lint out of it? Use a toothpick or plastic dental flosser. DO NOT use a paperclip or anything else metal as it could damage the port.

It's not. I did find that it will charge when connected to a PC, but not a charger. Port is clean as far as I can tell.

Have you tried a different wall charger, reversing the cable, same cable different charging block, etc? Does the notification persist all the time, only after it's plugged in, does rebooting remove it?

I have, three different chargers, all with different cords. One of them is the same cord I used to connect it to a PC a minute ago, and USB and charging work when connected to a PC. Reboot does nothing, the notification persists until it's plugged into a PC.
I had this issue too, was freaking out. Cleaned the USB c port with a dental pick and got some lint out, still no good.
So...I powered off the device. Wrapped a thin layer of iso alcohol wipe on the dental stick and cleaned as good as I could. After a few seconds of drying, used a aerosol duster to blow out the port.
Been fine for months now.
An update, in the usb preferences screen, if I select USB controlled by this device, it will charge normally. Seems more like a software issue, but if it's acting weird when off, would it be? When off it would indicate a firmware or hardware issue. At least I would think.
Had the same thing happen to me, its a faulty use port. Contacted support and they got me a new phone. The only bad part is you gotta have a credit card to have them send it out

Please don't use a toothpick to clean USB ports. I did that some time ago and broke some pins, just slightly, so it sometimes worked, sometimes it didn't. Replacing the jack (was a different waterproof phone) was a pain and cost a quite a bit of money.
Try to wash it down with alcohol and blow it lightly with compressed air, several times.

Yeah, I found that out. Kinda crappy. Other option is to send in and wait. Turn around time, 10-15 business days. Seriously? They know these devices are important for our daily lives now, they expect someone to wait that long?

I had to RMA my P2XL and I did the option where you send it in then they send the replacement. I think they send the replacement once they see the original has been shipped. I dropped mine off at UPS and the next day I got an email saying my replacement was being sent out.
