Battery charging issue - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

I Know there is technology is our battery for the accelerated charging but yesterday my phone started taking forever to charge. Normally it would go from 0 to 100% in approximately 1 1/2 hours. Has this been happening to anyone else? Any remedies?

How long does it take your G2 to charge?

Just curious since it died on me earlier today, plugged it in at 7 and it took till 11 p.m to charge to 100%. I know that's only 4 hours, but its disappointing because my iPhone 4 really only takes an hour and a half.
How long does your guys take? The phones battery is calibrated and I really need a phone that can zip up real fast when it comes to battery consumption.

On the wall plug my Z takes about 2hrs from 15%. The pc usb takes about a third more time. I find the charge is more complete or more full if that makes sense when charged from the pc.

90-120 mins seems to be the norm for me.
Would you guys think its the battery? Do you turn the phone off? This phone seems to take an eternity.

Not compared to the g1.. that thing took 12 hours to charge.

Install one of the battery meter apps on your phone that displays a percentage charge. Then you will be able to see what is going on, e.g. if it is just charging very slowly overall, or if it charges quite quickly but takes forever to do the last few percent.
Juice Plotter is pretty good for checking that kinda things. charge/discharge time etc.
Mine normally takes 3-4 hours

What are you charging it from? USB on computer or plugged into the wall socket? Is it the one that came with the phone? I've noticed all of these things can make a difference in charging time.
Juice Plotter is a good program as the others said and may help figure out what is going on.

Is there a fix for slow charging issue?

Since i updated my device to 4.2.1 charging my nexus 7 really get slow..... It takes 6 hours to 7 hours to fully charge. Im using the cable and charger that it came from the unit.
Is there a fix for this one? Thanks.

AW: Is there a fix for slow charging issue?
Check whether the device charges in USB mode. It can happen for some reason I don't know. In this mode it charges much slower. I once had it happen when on AC.
It's on AC. It takes 6 hrs to fully charge from empty. =(

What do you mean by rebooting it? I have the same charging problem. It needs about five to six hours for me to charge fully. How did you solve it? Is it really the problem of android 4.2.2?
Just try rebooting it or restart the device while charging. Im using battery widget reborn app, to see how many hrs left to make my nexus 7 to be fully charged.
Here's what i do,
Plug the charger then check after 2 mins on the app battery widget reborn how many hrs left to be fully charged, if it's says more than 4 hrs or greater than that. Hit the power button and restart your device. Once the device booted up, check the remaining time left on charging if it's improved to 3 hrs or less to fully charged your device.
Try it. It's working fine for my nexus 7.

I tried the app you mentioned. But the remaining time it indicates isn't equivalent to the real time used. Maybe this app doesn't work for my device, it still needs four to five hours for my nexus being fully charged. Anyway, thanks for your reply.

Or you may try to go to bootloader, then turn it off.. Unplug the charger, then put it back in then turn on your device.. It works for me.

[Q] battery charge time

could anyone tell me a few details about, how long it takes to fully charge the G2?
3000mh sounds like a lot of charging time, right?
Not exact time but ours fast if you use the official chargers or anything with a 1.8 amp to 2 amp.

Actually, it's not long at all. This is my fourth day with this phone and each day I'm more impressed with the charge time, I have been letting my phone battery drop down to 15% before charging and on average I have been getting a full charge in a little under 2 hours while using its original charger. I am genuinely in shock and disbelief at the rapid charge time on this beast of a device, it has to do with the new Snapdragon 800 processor. I love this phone ?

Yeah, from 0-100% it takes about 2 hours
Well if you disturb the phone and use it while charging it takes super long. Like almost 4 hours.

Battery charging time

How long would it typically take to charge from 10% to 100%?
Sent from my HTC One XL using xda premium
It takes mine about an hour or so to get from the battery low warning to 100%. But my charging hole is slowly breaking, even though I've only had this device for about a month. So, sometimes it varies.
Strange mine takes five hours to charge. Wonder what it could be? Can u upload pic of your USB cable to make sure I have the same one.

Mine takes about 5-6 hours, stock rooted 4.4.2 rom and mine is nexus 7 2012. It hasn't been slow like this since the update of 4.3

nope...
ours is a 2600mAh battery,
and taking 3-4 hours to charge this battery is quite normal when input current is 3.7v
Takes 2 - 3 hours. Depends on at what percents did you start to charge it.

Wont charge beyond 94%
My phone (Grand 2) takes 3-4 hours to charge up to 92-94%, but will never reach 100%. It will be stuck anywhere between 92-94% :crying:
I tried restarting the phone whenever the charging is stuck, but no use. But if I remove the battery and re-insert it, I could see a progress in charging and it finally reaches 100%. So, I thought a phone reset may help, but again, no luck.
Any suggestion is really appreciated.
Thanks!
U r right bro...lags in battery

Check your charger. If the output is 1 Ampere, it should not get stuck at 94%. If it is 0.7A, it will struggle at 94%.
Click on thanks if you think I helped.

i had the same problem today. i started charging from 2% and it took 5hrs to reach 92%. then i kept the charger plugged in for another 1hr bt i saw only 1% increased.bt pulling off the battery and putting it back helped to reach 100% within another 15mins. and i checked the charger.its showing the output current to be 1A . wht should i do? is it a problem?
Are you guys using DU Battery Saver? It sometimes makes my phone charge fast at those late stages (90-100%) maybe it might help!
