[Q] fast charging issues!!!!!

soo my issue is the fast charging.
first few days it was fast charging everything worked fine after that it stoped fast charging. when i plug it in it dosent show "fast charge connected" insted it shows " usb ".... so i thought something wrong with the cable so i changed it.... so i changed just the cable not the plug works fine. my first thought is that the cable is broken or something,
1. can that be true that the cable is not proper build?
2. does it affect anything that i charge my phone with an older cable?

Just double check under settings, power settings, fast charging is still checked. Once I accidently uncheked it.

no no the fast charging is checked.... like i said with the cable that came with the phone fast charging is not working...... other cables yes everythings normal

That's odd because the cable has nothing to do with it. Maybe your stock cable has been damaged.

I don't know it's confusing to me too. because the first two days it was working great after that It's not fast charging . maybe my cable was bad made!! but fast charging is working with another cable l have from my old s3 !

Also does it affect something on my battery that im using an old cable for fast charging???

How do you know of fast charging is working? Thought the screen had to be off?

Yes the cable will affect fast charging. Fast charging only works with cables of certain gauge (thickness). You must have damaged your cable, or it was already damaged before you got it. Don't worry this has no effect on the battery, no degradation.

ok so the cable could have been already damaged...... the thing is when i fast charge it with the other cable it charges the same time as the cable that came with the phone.... i also noticed that i get the same battery life also...... sooooo i there must be no harm at all right????

rapid charging multiple issues
My Note 4 did the same thing: 1st charge worked great, then it started showing connected to the RC, but unable to charge and flashing LED. Sometimes it still charges okay (not rapid) and sometimes really crawls. The "not able to charge" plops up every few minutes. Word was that there was a chord issue with the OEM and that they were fixed, but replacing the ones that were shipped already with a problem. That didn't fix my issue. The new word is that it's a device issue in some cases. For me, it does appear to be the device since I've done a FDR and tested multiple chargers, chords, OEM and carrier options. Contacting Samsung today as a DOA device. I'll let you know what happens. :fingers-crossed:

If you are hooking it up to a computer to charge, you will not get fast charging. It has to be plugged in with the power plug only to get a fast charge.

I got a replacement device by warranty and it's charging exactly as it should. All of my cables and plugs are working.
Wow...it's fast...faster than expected even! I'm loving the new Note, now! Just one of those things that happens sometimes.
Good luck with getting yours working. I should think it would be covered by the warranty.
Happy holidays to you and yours!

replacement
How long did it take to get a replacement? Had my phone for almost a month now and its very on /off with the charging. When i first got it it showed fast charger connected and got 50% charge as advertised in half an hour. Now it will, if im lucky charge maybe 10% in an hour. Just now, went to bed with 13%. 5hrs later it got to 32%. Havent tried a different cable and plug combo yet.

Another thing to check, make sure the standard usb end is snug in the charging adapter. Mine wasn't fast charging, but it was slow charging (I think - showed lightening bolt in battery icon) and then I pushed the usb into the fast charging wall adapter a little more and it resolved the issue

Hey, I was wondering if you're still experiencing this problem; I have the same model number & have the same problem.

I've had my Note since December last. It was fast charging just fine for about a month then I noticed it became sporadic, then it went to slow charge after that, then stopped charging altogether.
I changed the cable and it started to fast charge again for about a month and the same thing happened. It just deteriorated over time until it stopped charging.. So this is what I've been doing since. I'm on my third cable now. I've been wondering if the higher voltage etc, that enables the fast charge feature breaks the cable down. Just a thought:confused.

I had the same issue when I just got my note 4 a few months back. It turn out to be the charger that is causing the problem. I went to the service centre (in Singapore), the reception told me it is a common problem with the charger. Had it changed and the problem solved.

fast charge
So my problem was that the first days fast charging was working then I deside to desable the fast charge and now I can't enable I need help

Phone charging extremely slowly.

My Moto G4 Plus charges super slowly.
Like it would take 6 hours to charge from 0 to 100, no matter what charger I use, even the Turbo charger.
However, if I reboot the phone, the phone charges quickly, but after a day's use, it's back to slow charging when I plug it in at night.
I have no idea what's causing this, I am on the 'NPJ25.93-14' build and I had reset the phone once after updating it to this build and before using it.
This doesn't seem to be related to any app because the discharge rate is normal.
Can someone help me out with this issue please? I don't really want to reset

The cable and the turbo adapter, make sure they are super connected to each other. Like, the USB at the end of the cable is sooooo in the adapter. You may think at first that it is all the way in but actually it should be all the way IN there. Happened to me the first time I was charging my phone. I didn't realize it was not all the way in. Push it more.

Then that might be the problem. Not all sockets have the same amount of voltage. You may be plugging it in a low voltage socket that causes your phone to charge very slow. The socket where it charges fast, that's where you should charge it.

But other phones are charging fine.
And no matter what socket I use, after reboot charging works fast on every socket.
This is some kind of software related issue, how come does a reboot fix the issue?

I will suggest take a backup and wipe all data then restore from this backup..
And when charging switch off your phone..
When charging when switched on turn on Aeroplane mode..
Switch off data and wifi,hotspot, location...etc while charging..

I am having same problem.

Change charging wire and check

This can be solved very easily. Just have to use a different way of approach.
First:
Keep charging around 50%(not necessarily but will help you to notice changes).
Second:
Play a hard core game( which will drain your battery rapidly). Then again charge till where you had in first step(approximation not necessary).
Third:
Till now your phone will be super heated(its moto g4 plus obviously).
Plug in the charger again and repeat step second.
Fourth:
Battery will not charge for few min(may take upto 30min or so).
Then it will start charging slowing.charge upto 5% then stop playing game.
Fifth:
leave the phone aside and do other works.
Sixth:
when phone will charge 90%+ , remove charging and start using phone, it will drain more quickly.
Seventh:
Drop 10-20%. Let the phone cool down (like ice). Then use very less frequently for about an hour.
Eight:
Start charging again. And here you go its again in turbo charging.
//Step are not complicated and are subjected to change according to phone conditions.
Result depends on user and phone set only.//
T&C applied.

i facing same problem in moto g4 plus all things which are possible to solved these problems can be done by me but there is no problem in hardware and even in batteries. i think there is a problem in charging IC of mobile circuit

I have the same problem, tried diferent QC 2.0 and 3.0 chargers and compatible cables and nothing, also replaced the charging port, and the flex of the rear proximity sensor,i saw on a video that and worked but not for me. Charging takes 7-8 hours

You will need to replace Flash Flex Cable. It controls G4/plus fast charging. It´s relatively easy to replace by yourself.

Wireless Charging

Is there a special kind of wireless charger I am going to need to buy for this phone? It's my first of this kind.

Should work with QI or PMA wireless chargers. Qi is the more popular standard and has more options available.

Fast Wireless Charging?
Does any one know if it supports Fast wireless charging?
I Have been trying to find the wireless charging specs on the phone no luck so far.

Does not support fast wireless charging. Ive tried 3 different fast chargers and the phone will only do standard wireless charging speeds. LG also stated they did not incorporate fast wireless charging and I believe it was due to the way the phone is being cooled.

No Problem. The sammy charger still works just not fast. I have one next to my bed so at night I drop it on and by morning its full. Thats about the only purpose I can see making sense though.

Just got a Samsung wireless charger
I got the Samsung circular stand charger that comes with both cable and plug and I'm impressed by how fast it charges. I am however a little concerned that the charging light doesn't change from blue to green when the phone reaches 100%. It stays lit and even the phone still indicates that it is still charging.
Should I be worried about this or is that normal?

As far as I know, quality chargers would slow down the charging at the 99% and keep topping the phone up, that way it keeps the battery safe from overcharging and it maintains the battery. I don't have exact science in detail in my head nor have any article saved to provide the link, but I think that this must be it. Look up your particular's charger's specifications online.

No fast wireless charging option? Wtf?

Hey guys, one of my co-workers has a S8 (Cricket). He just noticed that under his settings in the battery section, there is no toggle to enable Fast Wireless Charging under the Advanced options.
I've been searching here as well as in Google for any answers. I've seen a thread or two randomly on other forums, one was a VZW customer who apparently found from their customer service, that there was a known issue on some devices and the fast wireless charging option was removed. Not sure if this was in a series of production, maybe earlier production devices? That specific thread was from the beginning of Dec 2017.
I've really found no concrete answers, and actually don't get anything when I search that is specific to Cricket Devices. I've got an ATT S8+, and I have the option and actually use fast wireless charging every night.
Hoping someone knows a way to force it back, or if this is something to be fixed by Samsung?
***EDIT - I just realized that my boss doesn't have fast wireless charging either, she hasn't been able to use the fast charger we got her for Christmas. She has a Vzw S8+.
TIA

It's available after first use with a fast wireless charger. Just put it on the charger and it will be there. Hope this helps.

We put it on a known working fast wireless charger, no dice. It was actually tried for a short period (30 minutes) and then completely charged on a fast wireless charger overnight. Option still isn't there, nor did it fast charge ever while on the charger.

Anyone else have a suggestion?

Use proper Fast Wireless Charger, like Samsung one. Also with proper strong charger connected to wireless charger...

Which one?

On mine it's just a matter of whether or not it's plugged into a fast charging brick. If I want slow charge, I use a charger other than the one that came with the phone. Works on my Verizon S8+ no problem

Choetech, using a fast charging brick and cable from a Samsung S7. Works fine for my ATT dev, have tested with another ATT dev (Note 8) and it worked fine on it as well.

I use the following. Cheap and cheerful. Plus all of them are fast.

It's Not the Charger, block/travel plug or lead.
I am, and always have been a loyal Samsung user since the (slide up) D500 which I still have btw.
Had every other S model as my provider contract is over 18 months so tend to miss a model. S4, S6 now on S8+ and had charger port issues with them all. So Samsung changed the port, and lead to one that even an idiot like me can plug in whilst driving in the dark without breaking it. Imagine my surprise and disappointment when my S8 stopped fast charging. As the title states, I have only ever used the charger and lead supplied with the handset and after past issues am ULTRA carefull when charging.
So I bought a Samsung (EP-PG9201) wireless fast charger. Using S8's f/charger block + lead from my S6 placed S8 on it and yeah, it charges but no fast charge? Followed all the settings advice but no Accessories option in Advanced Features, Device Maintenance, Battery, Advanced Settings but no wireless charge option (fast or otherwise) Yet prior to my purchase I checked these settings to see if S8 was compatable and the wireless option was there but greyed out but now it's gone!?!
Soz for the waffle but IT'S WOUND ME UP 100% Any help or advice that doesn't include charger, block, lead, settings, phone case or software updates would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance guys

It works..!!!
Thank you... It actually works.

Question Nothing phone 1 wireless charging issue

I found the wireless charing is extermely slow and even not charging , anyone has similar experience ? Please advise, thanks

This just happened to me today as I tried wireless charging for the first time. Was testing with Samsung 15W charger, gonna look for another charger to see what that does.
Edit: Samsung 15W charger with 25W power supply did not work, Oneplus 50W with 65W adapter worked. Tried the power bricks with both chargers, only 50W+65W combo worked. Looks like it is a little picky with chargers.

Epico Wireless Stand Pro also charging slowly. Charging also stops from time to time. Might be firmware issua?

Alignment seems to need to be pretty much perfect to work...
Already sick of waking up to an uncharged phone so have switched to wired for now.

This was on one of those Ikea Qi chargers that are covered with fabric for grip... still very awkward to align.
You've reminded me that I do have a Qi charging stand somewhere though... I might dig that out and try it.

Weird... For me with the OnePlus 50W charging station it continuously stops and restarts (or not even that). I'm using it with a 30W OnePlus adapter. Worked with my old device.
Interestingly, I also have the older, wired OnePlus stand with 30W and with that it seems to work.

My BMW has a charging box, same like a charging pad. When I put my phone inside, it doesn't charge.
I always need to hold the phone 1-2 cm above the charging pad for like 5 Seconds. Then it starts charging and I can lay it down on the pad.
It's like the phone has to perform any handshake with the charger first and when it is too close it doesn't work.
Maybe it works in the same way for you.

According to Ampere, the Nothing Phone 1 stop wireless charging as soon as it reaches 38 degrees (celsius), which is incredibly low

Wireless charging has been awesome for me. Mine charges wirelessly incredibly fast and I never have an issue. I've been using this charger .
