battery takes a little more time after 100% make sure to charge it till its full.
But if it gets to 99% when your phone is in use then its normal.

Try to recharge it till 100% unplug the usb charger then plug it again do it 3 to 5 times you should be fine after that.

It seems to be normal. If have 2 x Note 3 a have same. I talked to Samsung and get a new Battery, but the same.
This will work :

Directly after unplugged (after Message BATTERY FULLY CHARGED) Then unplug and directly plug in again, wait for Message BATTERY FULLY CHARGED.... and again and again
But....if it works....one or few days later you will have the same issue again [emoji16]
I ignore it after Samsung changed my Battery

from your words can i say it's a battery problem ??

No, I don't think that is a battery problem. Maybe a Software Problem in the Charging electronic or just a wrong information.

charge until 100%, unplug your phone, switch it off, plug the charger and charge for 5 to 10 minutes. Unplug the charger, turn the phone on, plug the charger back for another 5 to 10 minutes.

Actually, guys, the reason for this is completely different.
Modern smartphone charging works like this - the battery is charged at high rate until 80-90%. At that point, the charging rate (how much current is directed to battery) is decreased to avoid overcharging. When battery is fully charged, the charging process is stopped until the battery level drops to about 95%. Then charging process is restarted.
The lowered percentage happens if you unplug during the so-called pause in charging. Android itself may still show 100% in the first place, but then shortly after decreases to the real amount. It is just the way modern batteries are built and there is no way to fix it.
Besides, does the 2-3% of battery really matter that much?

Nexus 10 dead, pogo charger needed

Hi mates, I've had my N10 running perfectly for years, the minute I gave it to my wife it suddenly died (no kidding), I've tried several methods to charge it without any luck, so my last option will be to obtain a pogo charger, though the problem is, there are no more pogo chargers manufactured, so my question is: Does anyone on the forum has a pogo charger on sale? For I don't resigne myself to loose my tablet out of lack of charger
I know there are dozens of people looking for this pogo charger as well, I just hope I can get one.
Thanks a lot in advance mates.
btw: there should a listing on swappa for accessories too

Thanks for the second link, I didnt found that before, as for the magnector link, I even wrote them support and they told me they are not manufacturing that cable anymore.
Will try with the other cable.
thanks a lot.

I'm in that same boat. My N10 stopped taking charge just yesterday. Whenever I plug it in Ampere goes red and says "Unknown" instead of "Charging" no matter what cable/charger combination I use. Decided to just shut it down when the battery got to 4%. Is it safe to assume this pogo cable is my only option?

mine has just stopped charging too, although it actually says charging when i could boot into the os, now im trying to save the tablet through twrp but its stopp botting into that now, i just get a white battery icon with a lightening bolt in it on screen.

Mine still charges, but the current rate is really low, so it takes forever to charge it. Furthermore the rate changes every time i plug and unplug the cable.. When I'm lucky, I can get it up at 1A I guess its a matter of time before it dies on me too. It's also very sensitive when it comes to cables and wall adapters (it effects the current rate).

What ROM a you using, guys? Same problem here on CM13 last week nighlies. I just flashed stock LMY49J when the battery went on ~40℅ and at this moment N10 seems to be charging battery again (+7℅/h @ 1.2A charger).
Weird stuff, same issue on lot of devices at the same time..

Mine has been fine then flashed the latest CM nightly on Saturday so 20/08/2016 and now i have ZERO battery and it just sticks on 0% even when left to charge without a os booted.
I've tried different charger cables as well as plug adapter and a USB from the computer all not working.
Do i need to get this pogo/magnet charger or is it something that's happened on the CM Nightly (i did notice they changed the batter charging animation with no OS booted)

Sorry mate! Everybody who is talking about the pogo.. I am guessing it won't solve the problem ( it seems to be a quite bad kernel update or something) and the tablet will not charge.
The right solution is to charge the battery alone, try to use an old one with a residual charge or what is more simple, buy a new one (they will be around ~50% charge) and then, flash some stock ROM at quick as posible.

I'm absolutely in the same "no charging" boat, unknown battery, ...
The only possibility for me is to charge my N10 when it's in recovery, nothing else is working.
Hope it will be solved asap from the cm team

Mine has always acted like that. I'd plug it in and get it charging around 1.2-1.4A and then leave it. The rate would go down if the cable got moved around so I just didn't use it while it was charging.

That's a really weird behavior.

Think it's just the cable I use. It doesn't really fit very snugly, has a little wiggle to it when it's plugged in.

I'm not having any luck charging in TWRP. Left it plugged in for 90 minutes then booted into CM to check the battery level and it was 0%. Was somehow able to boot back into TWRP, might try flashing an older version of CM and and see if that helps, if it doesn't die completely first. :/

If you're using latest twrp you can follow charging level in twrp ... It's easier.

Are you talking about removing the battery and charging it on its own? Because my battery is now officially dead. Screen flickered and it went black while trying to flash an old nightly.

I think it's easier to buy a new battery via Aliexpress or similar than trying to find a pogo and see if its going to work.
Both solutions are hard to take.
If you were able to enter bootloader o recovery and try to charge from there to see if works...
Enviado desde mi Nexus 5 mediante Tapatalk

Charging over USB works while the tablet is in bootloader mode.
With pogo cable charging works in all operation modes.
I ended up flashing the Google Nexus 10 factory image (deleting everything of course). Afterwards charging over USB worked again.

Well, all hope is not lost after all. Left it plugged in all day and it had enough charge to boot to TWRP again. Flashed a random nightly from July that was still on my device and let it charge some more. Now it's back in action. Phew! Thanks @v1r1at0 for the tip on downgrading.

Fast Charge 4-5hrs?

just wondering how's everyone fast charge is, back when i had my note 7 it usually only takes an hr and 15mins for the phone to get fully charge, even in use. I'm currently using the stock charger and I'm not happy for it

Yeah....., did you plug it in and immediately take that screen shot? Are you using the stock cable with it? And lastly does it say fast charging in the notification bar?
Mine takes roughly an hour and a half to go from 20ish% to 100%

Your using the phone so the charge time hasn't adjusted. My Note 7 didn't charge in 1hr 15 min while I was using it.

My V20 charges crazy fast. There has been 2 times where It seemed to charge very slowly but I chalked it up to a likely bug or something. Other than those 2 times the device charges as it should, even when I'm using it providing the screen brightness isn't all the way up.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk

I will say if its charging slow make sure the usb end is plugged all the way in to the plug that goes in to the wall. I noticed this morning I was getting a slow charge and when looked at the connection it was not in all the way. Once I pushed it all the way in it started charging fast

As a v10 user I can tell you that sometimes (even using factory charger and cable) it doesn't go into fast charge.
Unplug it and plug it back in the lock screen should state "fast charging.." not just "charging.."

V20 doesn't charge as fast when using while charging. I am guessing that is a firmware thing or intentional to protect from heat, which I rarely notice.

that's understandable... back in note 7 it gets pretty hot but never exploded or smoked... but note 7 in use while playing a game will still charge the phone in 2hrs...
for me its a really big difference coming from note 7
thanks for everyone's input
using note 7 charger is actually a lil faster than the stock.... as far for my experience

2 month old ZTE AXON 7 won't quick charge anymore.

My phone is two months old and has ceased to quick-charge. Actually, 90% of the time, it will only charge when powered down. I use the factory charger and cable but get a message that I need to use the original charger and cable. Catch 22?
I bought it at Best Buy so I took it back to them this evening. My charger is fine as is my cable. Best Buy confirmed that my issue is a factory defect and politely sent me on my way. I take care of my phones if nothing more than the fact that I've had to replace micro USB ports in the past. The weird thing is that when it charges powered down, it seems to refresh to full battery very quickly.
Has anyone else had similar issues? If in fact, I do have to deal with ZTE, what has been members experience?
Thank you for letting me vent.

U can test your charger using USB volt amp reader on another phone which supports quick charging.
If charger works as it should then u need to test your phone with multimeter to see how much current it draws while phone is powered off without charger (battery only).
But that means you need to open 2 month old phone which i dont recommend if u have warranty.
Axon 7 draws about 2.66-2.68 amps while in quick charging mode. Volts i forgot but i think it was 6v. I'm not in shop at the moment so i cant know exactly.
But for amps i remembered.

Wallor77, thank you for your reply. My charger is in good working order. In fact, I have several 2.0 and 3.0 chargers. They all work fine on my Samsung Galaxy Note Edge. The Samsung displays "Fast Charger Connected" on the lock screen.
Now my ZTE Axon 7 will not charge while it is powered up. As soon as I turn it off, it charges just fine. This is really annoying!

If your charger and cable are OK, perhaps have you recently installed an application which limits the power. Such methods exists in some antivírus to preserve the health of the battery. It's just an idea.

Same thing there. If it charges normally while power off u need to see how much amps. USB volt amp reader is a good little device. I recommend for everyone to get one. It cost about 15 bucks. From there it's all about elemination process to diagnose proper issue

I second this. But $15?! You can get them for about $5 on aliexpress!

U have USB volt amp reader with both volt units, amp units, time duration and mAh over time charged value. But 15$ was about avarage price listing. I'm sure there is cheaper as well.

UPDATE: 6/2/17
I ended up sending my phone to the ZTE repair center in TX. It took about 3 weeks to get it back. There was no explanation of what was repaired and I received my original phone; not a refurbished one. All I know was that it was covered.

I am in the process of returning my 3rd Axon to ZTE. 2 of them have had this problem. It's definitely known because when I was talking to them and told them what was happening they just kind went "yeah ok" and fast tracked the whole thing. Thank god for this warranty, their quality control is ****e.

anyone noticed that occasionally it stops charging?

Last night, mine started doing this. It goes on and off about every two seconds. What's weird is it only does this with the quick charger. it slow charges when connected to a PC usb just fine. Its not the OEM charger either since my wife's quick charges just fine with the exact same charger.
Guess I'm going to have to call ZTE....

Mine suddenly stopped quick charging - I have 3 different chargers that work fine with other phones except for this one. And chances of all 3 of them going bad at the same time are slim to none. Tested different cables as well, but again same result. It charges with normal speed even when connected to QC3.0. Tried wiping cache. I think it's no different if I turn the phone off. Think it might be time to move on. Had it since December 2016, so I guess it's nearly 2 years old now. Still shame.

Quick update. Swapping batteries (OEM) hasn't helped. I wonder if this is software or hardware related

Let me add to this thread. I'm also not getting quick charge anymore for maybe a month already. Tried different cables, booting to safe mode, etc. There are few instances where i see quick charging but very rarely. I was thinking it's my usb port but I haven't opened my phone yet to verify.

Battery doesn't charge until 100%

Hi!
I recently bougth a 1+5, I decided to charge it, but after one hour I see that the battery hasn't charged fully(only until 84%), I waited for minutes and I realized that the phone didn't recognize the charging mode.
I have charged many times but it only charge until 82-85% and I have to complete the 100% via USB.
Does anybody has the same problem and if it has, how could you solved it?
Thanks!

Yikes. Sounds like a bad charging brick or a bad OP5.
Have you tried using different chargers and cables?
Next option would to be to try another factory reset, re install Oxygen, or try a custom ROM of your choice. (I recommend Pure Fusion).
If you really like Oxygen, and you can't fix it, you should probably try to contact OP support about it.

Thanks, I sent an email to OnePlus support.

Same problem, OP5 bought from gearbest. it seems a defective charger (SHENZHEN HUNTKEY model).
I can't post any links but search on the official Oneplus Forum with "dash charging stop after 83-85%"
After opening a case, GearBest refunded me 30 USD.

Yes, lots of people got this problem and the cause is a bad charger. Try to charge the phone with regular charger and it probably go to 100%. If not it could be a phone problem. I got 2 dash chargers and one of them is doing that.

If you can complete the charge to 100% via USB, that tells me it's more likely a defective charging brick/cable rather than the device itself. OP support should provide a replacement for something like that.

I have exact same problem with dash charger and when i switch to any other charger it charges all the way to 100%. So i contact Honorbuy (where i bought the phone) and they will send me another dash charger.
