Charging problem or bug? - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

Hello all,
Lately my Mi6 has been with some kind of problem when charging. Here's the deal:
I'll charge my phone to 100%, and in the next day, when I need to charge again, it does not charge- meaning it will not assume the charger is plugged in.
The thing is, if I turn off my device and start it again, it will assume the charging again. It can happen sometimes it does not assume the charging after restart, so i'll need to restart yet again the phone.
The phone when turned off does assume charging. I've factory reseted my phone, but it didn't change the bug.
What should I do? Is it even a hardware problem?

Dis u tried with another cable anotjer charger?

Battery discharging while charger is connected !

Hello,
My battery is not charging while the charger is connected !!!
the phone detect the charger but the battery won't charge :s
any idea ?
thank you
Try any other chargers?
If yes, and still doesn't work then I'm going with faulty charger port. Just got done setting up a refurb from VZW b/c my g/f's gnex had this issue.
The only other thing I can say to try is bending the tab/metal plate in the middle of the charging port up towards the glass a bit to center it more. May work.
i've tried 3 differents chargers and usb cables.it shows "charging" on lockscreen but the battery drains !
i'll try to bend the metal plate to center it more.hope it will work
thank you got556

Are you using a wall charger or USB port? And if your using a wall charger have you tried changing the part that gos to the outlet, not just the cord itself?

yes i did change it and i have used 4 diferents chargers
i can transfer data when i plug it to the computer, but it does not charge :s weird !!!
I had this problem. The charging port (the thing in the middle of the port) on the phone was bent. Took a safety pin and moved it a bit.
This is the only thing that worked. Used different chargers and battery, nothing helped but this.

Can you get any kind of charge? I noticed last night that after I was at 100 percent for a while the phone shut off charging...is.that the issue, or no charge at all. If it's the first, the kernel may be shutting it down

This is a known Samsung hardware problem with GNex. The USB port's contact (in the center) is made from cheap, thin metal -- unpleasantly reminiscent of the Galaxy S cheap, thin metal GPS antenna; a total fail. It's really criminal that Samsung releases product like this, and moreover that they don't halt production and engineer the problem out before putting more lemons out there.
The recommended solution -- bending the contact into alignment -- worked for me for about 5 seconds. Repeat 5 times, and then the phone simply wouldn't start up.
Your best solutions:
1. If it's under warranty, send it in for a fix
2. If it's not, search this forum for instructions on buying (ebay?) and replacing the USB port.
In either case, I'd worry about the problem re-occurring. I bought the very overpriced desk dock so that I can charge using the pogo pins. However, in my car I still need to use the USB cable ... very carefully.
I wouldn't ordinarily get phone insurance, but in this case I'm considering it. Not sure if it would be a covered incident. Does anyone know of a well-priced third-party insurance company that actually provides the coverage that one expects?
Hi there.
Has anyone managed to fix this issue?
My phone has the same problem. When I try to charge it, battery icon changes to charging animation, but battery percentage will not go up. In settings, status of battery is "discharging". Also, battery settings page does not show any application using battery other than "Android OS" and "Screen" which i find strange - usually at least 10 apps are shown on this page.
Have tried different wall chargers and USB cables, have tried getting the pin in the micro-USB port to the middle. still no help.
On the latest version of JBSourcery ROM, if that helps.
Thanks.
battery calibration?
this may be the case if you recently flashed a new ROM and your battery is not properly calibrated yet. you may try to let the battery completely discharge and charge again (of course, this only works, if it is indeed not a hardware issue also, use only wall chargers)... repeat that a few times and your battery should be calibrated again... had this problem a few times after flashing a new ROM, but that fixed it.

[Q] Note2 not charging, connect(ed) to PC.

Hi,
Yesterday my new (~2 months old) Note2 stopped charging. tried 2 different chargers, 2 different cables connected to PC. No reaction (no beeps, no led, battery icon not changed to flash).
Tried removing and putting the battery back in. No change.
On the other hand, when connected to the PC, the PC identified the connection and allowed file transfer. Later the battery died completly. I succeeded in booting to download mode, and again PC identified the USB device.
Switching the phone on with no battery gave no results either (would not turn on).
This leads me to a conclusion that the USB port is probably OK. Could it just be a dead battery? (according to its label, the battery was made on Nov 29th, 2012).
I will be able to switch battery tomorrow with another Note 2. Anything else I can try till then?
Using custom recovery and stock rom.
Thanks in advance,
Idan

Yeah, with or without battery... no reaction from the phone.
Have you tried a lower powered device to see if that works? Some usb ports don't have full power output, as some laptops portray.

I've tried 2 USB ports on a desktop PC. didn't work.
I've connected it without the SIM and SD to an old nokia charger (0.7ma), no sign of a change but after ~ 1 hour I noticed the red led turned on - turning the device on showed 44% charged.
Now I am too puzzled. any ideas?
This is exactly what happened to me. .. it was the motherboard. I brought an external battery charger, charged the battery full so I could use the phone. Then used triangle away and odin to flash stock rom, and sent it in for warranty service. This seems to be becoming a common fault with the note 2 now....ive seen a few thread recently.

Hey there, my sgn2 n7100 had the same problem before, I tried everything, even disassembled the phone apart, but it was still won't turn on or charge, won't be recognized by pc or Mac. One day when I repaired my mom's iPhone 4 touch screen, I found out that the USB port was so dusty. I thought may be it's all because the USB port was dusty then I picked up my sgn2 and used a soft tooth brush with a little pure alcohol to clean every corner of the USB port. Guess what? After 15 minutes I connected my phone with the USB wall charger, my sgn2 just started to charge again. Trust me guys, try to use a soft brush to clean the USB port before you give your phone to the repair store or somewhere else. Good luck!! Hope it helps.
Same here, i manage to purchase note 2 for 300 euros! And when I put it to charge nothing!I went to download mode and then turn it on normal and its charging! Also happend the same with my s3 so eighter its a charging problems or seems to be one software issues
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
@scufutz I could guarantee the symptoms described by the OP is NOT software issue, as I have an N7100 with same problem and I managed to flash new kernel and still it does not charge even powered off. Download mode connects perfect.
I'll check if this cleaning method, or if its a circuit prob.

[Q] Turn On Automatically When Charging

Hi, it's my first thread in XDA.
I have problem with my OGP. Device is off, but it turn on automatically when I plug in the charger or even to laptop.
I use 10e stock rom. I do nothing, only root last month and it's fine until last night.
I think they are supposed to do that... Is it fully turning on, or going to the battery charge screen?
I imagine a usb to laptop might turn it on. A wall charger usually boots to the charge screen.

Pixel 2 XL freezing during charging (Android Q DP5)

Hi,
I dont exactly remember if it started in DP2 or DP3 but during charging the phone becomes almost unusable. Its almost like a brick during the time its plugged in. After unplugging, it has to be rebooted in order to function it correctly.
I have tried with official charger and also with a different usb cable and powerbank, still its unusable during the charging period.
Can you guys please help!

Try a factory reset? I am currently using beta 5 and the charger and no issues with freezing.
I'm having issues when charging since yesterday. Any time I try to charge the phone, it turns off immediately. I'm in stock Android Q beta 6 and I didn't have this issue until yesterday morning

I had a similar issue, pixel only charged when off and very slow. If I plugged charger in while phone was on it turned off. And only slow charger worked.
RMA with google after I mentioned this started right after July security update (was Pie though).
Pixel 2 XL Hardware Not Software Issue
Play!Ya,
Like Lywyn said this is actually a known (if not acknowledged) issue with the hardware of the Pixel 2 XL.
From a previous post of mine:
Apparently, there is a known issue with the Pixel 2XL devices. The USB port/connection to motherboard fails such that every time you plug in an adapter to charge, the phone will reboot. Eventually, my OEM adapter would not work at all (I had to use a Nintendo Switch adapter to charge).

I realize now it started back when I lost the ability to connect to Android Auto in Dash systems.
If you are still covered under warranty, they will send you a refurbished replacement (at least they did for me).
Good luck and spread the word, because it drove me crazy for many months.
