[Q] Charging Issue -> loose contact?? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I'm pretty happy with my Nexus 4, but I'm afraid it's defective, what do you think?
When charging it (I tried 2 different cables and 2 different chargers) it fills up till approx. 80%
and then it acts like if the charger is unplugged and plugged in again. In the battery status it says
(charging, not charging, charging, not charging...) If I unplug it manually, it continues charging
for another couple of minutes until reaching the "charge-loop" again.
Any ideas? Anybody else having the same problem?
Cheers,
Dirk

I suspect it is charging but perhaps not updating the charge percentage. After an hour the percetage ought to be fairly high - possibly full. I would disconect the usb charger or pc lead and then check level\of charge. Also remember it increases and decreases in 10% intervals - so you will never see figures in between e.g. 21..22..23 etc only 10...20...30 etc.

Charging off USB takes much longer than off of AC. I usually charge off USB only to keep my phone "topped off" during the day at the office.

SGS2 battery not being charged.

Hello,
Today there went somthing wrogn with my sgs2. The battery is not being charged. I have tried few chargers but without success. Now it is powering up showing info the battery is over and turnes off. After few minutes it is again powering up and after few seconds powering off :/
I think I have to sent it to warranty service or is it any other way I can check it?
I'm not sure if it is battery problem or phone problem.
It started yesterday when my phone showed some strange message like it has been used in car (wheel icon on top).
Well guys this is totally weird.
It started charging properly when I connected it to USB cable from USB hub.
What I observed is that when battery is below 25% all the problems are happening and I cannot use normal charger. When I charge it above 30% then normal charger also begins to work without any problem.
Maybe it is software related?
It might be the 650ma limit for charging is messed up or your chargers are not meeting the requirements.
I voided my warranty and your mum.

Charging issue ? Plugged but not charging...

Hey,
Anyone having the same issue ?
It's very strange because it happens somedays, someothers not at all.
Basically I plug the note to charge, it displays charging, but when I come back an hour later or so... the note is at 1% charge, like it just depleted itself and is just living out of juice sucked out of the charger...
This happens when I plug it in the wall charger most of the time.
When I plug it through USB on my computer (lower charging output) it never does this. And that's also how I managed to recharge my battery to 100% after the first time it did that.
But a week later, now it's the second time and it start to get annoying.
Anyone has any idea ? Is the charger defective or the battery ? Or worse the battery controler ? Anyone knows how to reset battery stats on the galaxy note ? Thanks.
I had the same problem on another type of phone with a usb charger
Would charge sometimes, sometimes not fully charge and then sometimes not at all.
Turned out to be the charger, just get another charger from somewhere
(I find the 10Watt/2.1amp IPad Apple chargers are good quality and provide heaps of juice for quick charging)

Charging issues?

Recently my OP2 doesn't seem to charge properly. Meaning...with the USB cord connected to the base it charges for a min then stops. The light stays on as if it's charging but it's not. I have to unplug it and plus it back in and it's fine for a few min then it stops and I have to do it again. This just started happening. I haven't dropped it or anything. The charge port is fine. Anybody else have this problem or HAD this problem...any info would help...
I have this exact same problem with my less than a week old OPT. I think its the charging cable gone bad. Using Ampere to check the charging current, I find that it never goes over 200ma and after about a minute (or lesser) disconnects because the software cuts it off when the current is too low. For now, charging with the phone turned off works, since no software to cut off the charger, but I do not know if this is bad for the battery. I am trying to find another Type C cable now, see if I can confirm this. Will post back if I do.
UPDATE: Was the cable. Friend's xiaomi cable worked perfectly and charged my phone back to 100% while I had dinner. Amazon is giving me a free replacement, so not complaing too much ...

Fast Charging issue.

Hi. I had my Note 4 for about 1 week now. At first fast charging was fine. After 1 week i started to have this problem that goes like this.
I would plug the phone to the charger then a notification turns up to say fast charging is enabled. Then it would stop charging after 3 seconds, then charge again, then stop after 3 seconds. Happens for about 5 times after plugging in the charger. After that, charging is fine.
Do you guys experience the same? What do I do? Will it break the phone? What could be the problem? Thanks guys.

thats abnormal, try disable fast charging on settings>battery
Connectivity problem man, loose connection somewhere. Try with a new USB cable, if that doesn't solve it, try a new power adapter.
