Are you using the OEM charger and cable? Mine does the same thing if I'm using a third-party charger.

You must have a huge wake lock issue. Try downloading wake lock detector, or something similar to find the culprit.

Wakelock caused by charger

OK so any charger I use including the stock charger gives me a wakelock called PM8921_eoc and it is causing my N4 to charge very slow this wakelock will run the whole time my phone is plugged in. I've tried different chargers and different power sockets to move avail. Can anybody help me this is so frustrating.
Edit: I bought a OEM LG wall charger and I'm gonna see if this helps. I hope so cause this wakelock only appears when my phone is charging.

Wakelocks don't matter when you're charging. Wakelocks only prevent deep sleep, which is already disabled while charging

Ah OK so hopefully the new charger I got will help it to charge faster. I need to check and see if my phone is recognizing the original charger as a USB. Thank u so much I feel better now.
Edit: My N4 reads the original charger as ac so I dunno its OK though maybe a ROM will fix my extremely slow charging. I will just keep trying different Roms and kernels till I find what I want.

Charging Problem

I am having trouble charging my tablet. When the tablet is on, I am unable to charge with either the POGO or USB cable. I have also tried other wall chargers for cell phones. I was not using any roms, but had tried out the ktmantra kernel. I have since wiped my tablet using a factory 4.2.2 image from google and am still having the charging problem.
The only way I am able to charge is by charging with the tablet off. It also takes ages to charge (12+hours). Any ideas on what could be causing this? When I plug the POGO cable in, it says it is charging, but the battery percentage continues to drop.

I've readed some comment on another forum from an user that has the same proble, but for him it takes about 10h. Not sure what's wrong.
Are you not able to charge at all or just very slowly? I just noticed that my Nexus is charging very slowly with the Pogo cable I purchased. I may try going back to the usb cable to verify that the problem is with the cable and not with the tablet.
I was getting very slow charge rates with my usb charger. Around 12 hour charge times even when completely powered off. Anyway, my problem was with using a USB extension cable. Since I started plugging it directly into the wall I've been seeing charge times in the 5-6 hour range. My iPad never had an issue with it, but whatever! You might also try a different wall outlet.

I cant seem to solve this problem. I have tried using pogo and usb cables with two different chargers. I have also tried using different wall mounted phone chargers. I am not able to get any positive charge while the tablet is on. Using the battery monitor widget, I used to see a +1800 charge with the pogo, and a bit less with the usb cable. Now, the highest I get is -500.
I am only able to charge when the tablet is off, although very slowly. I had it charging all night, and it is now at 60%
When I plug the pogo cable in, the tablet will say it is charging, but it really isnt doing anything.
Any ideas?

Recalibrate battery? It's probably not going to work though. RMA the tablet as a last resort.

How can I recalibrate the battery?
Im in Europe until June, so Im assuming it wont be easy to RMA.
There is also a strange thing going on with the usb cable. My computer is unable to detect it as a storage device. When I plug the charger in, it will not show up as charging when the tablet is on. But, I am able to access the tablet via fastboot.
Where is that oficial pogo charger from samsgoogle? 4 month and counting... 2 Biggest companies în the world are unable to produce a simple cable... Hillarious

The N10 charger is a 2 amp charger and most phone chargers are 1 amp chargers. The N10 will charge slowly with a 1 amp charger if it is powered off, however it needs 2 amps to run the N10 and charge at the same time. Also I have found that not all USB cables are created equal, you may want to try another usb cable. I do not know anything about the pogo chargers. Hope this helps.

Nexus 7 wasn't charging while turned on.

Hey guys, I'm just looking for some insight here, I went to go plug my tablet in today and low and behold it wouldn't charge. I tried restarting it to no help, and did other troubleshooting options to make sure the power outlet and the original cord and adapter for the N7 were working properly. But then I noticed something weird, I put it into tarp recovery, plugged in the charger, rebooted recovery, and now its charging fine. It shows it charging in recovery AND when I boot into android all seems OK now, my question is what could have caused this and should I be concerned that this could start happening more often.

I don't know if this has anything to do with your situation, but I once used a 3rd party charger and 3rd party cable and it didn't show the charging graphic. The battery meter didn't change either, so after a coupld of hours, I unplugged it. It obviously had been charging since the battery indicator jumped up to a nearly full charge even though there were no indications it was charging. I always try to use the oem charger and cable even though I have found some chargers and cables that work as the stock one.

[Help] i9505 battery drain even connected w/ charger.

I need help, my s4 i9505 drain battery fast even connected to a charger. I don't know how to solve this issue.
Thanks in advance....
Do you use the original charger with original cable? Is it possible your usb port has some moisture damage? When the battery is charging, go to battery info and does it say usb?

Battery problem. Charger connects/disconnects

Hello,
My Samsung galaxy s4 I9505 charges with specific charger, last night i lost my that charger, now i gotta htc charger by which it charges, The main problem is when i put it on charge it says connected, after 4,5sec when display gets off it disconnects and display gets on and automatically reconnects.
i changed connectors, but the problem persists.
Also how can i get charge by every charger.
It should work with any charger. Unless it's the htc charger causing the problem.

before htc charging, it wasn't working on most of chargers, like 1 was working out of 1000 chargers.
can you pls figure out the problem?
I've charged a friend's S4 with a different charger than the original one and it worked.
A possible workaround would be to activate daydream or to have the screen never turn off while charging.

Is this hardware problem or some other?
coz one of y friend bought new samsung core etc, he was also able to charge with just original charger.
I don't know why it is not charging with any charger
Hardware issue is most likely, especially as it happens regardless of the charger used. What happens when you use a different usb cord?
