Hi!
I use a rooted D802 with cloudyG2 3.3.
Several weeks ago my phone has developed an annoying 'habbit':
It continually disconnects and reconnects to charging, but this happens only when I charge it in my car on my way home in the evening.
This does not happen in the morning on my way to work (using the same car, same car charger, same cable).
This does not happen using wall chargers.
I've tried various cables and car chargers, no change.
It's quite annoying and cumbersome when trying to use navigation or just by having the charging indication keep popping up every few seconds along with the charging sound.
Anyone encountered such strange charging patterns?
Any suggestion to stop it?
Thanks

Has anyone come up for a fix for the car charger issue?
The first time or two after a soft reset, the phone will work properly with a car charger. Plug and unplug it it a couple of times and then subsequent attempts to charge it off of the car charge will not activate the charging circuit.
I have to soft reboot to get the car charger to work again. Very frustrating, and probably the top most frustrating issue I have with this phone.
same thing here, i thought it was just my car charger. weird.
I think this may be due to the current being right on the lower limit.
Try turning phone onto standyby or off for car charging.
Not much help if using it as sat nav tho.
I had the same issue... untill I got a the genuine car charger

Yes best advice is use an approved charger as there are earthing issues with several others that give kids of issues reported here.

Hey Guys,
I have a query regarding charging my Hermes / 8525.
If I plug the phone into a wall unit, the orange charge light immediately comes on.
If I use the phone, or receive a call the phone continues to charge.
Once the phone has been used the phone/screen stays on.
When I plug the phone into my car adapter, the phone doesn't begin to charge until the phone goes into sleep mode. But then when I go to use the phone it stops charging. So if the battery is on it's last minutes, plugging the phone into my car adapter does NOT let me continue to use the phone. I have tried 3 different car chargers.
This week I bought an XTLINK Bluetooth Cell to Landline Converter. This is a great little box, and I love that once I walk into my house my cell phone rings through my phone system. Call Clarity is great.
But with the Bluetooth link active constantly the battery drains like crazy.
So I purchased a desktop charger unit. It arrived today. You can use it to charge the phone or with USB to synch the phone. So I plugged in the wall adapter to the cradle, and the phone only charges when not in use.
But when I hook up the cradle via mini-usb to my laptop the phone goes into constant charge mode - but it's doesn't stay on after being in use.
Can someone explain to me why the phone has these different charging modes ? Is there something I can do to change a setting to make the charging more consistent ?
Thank you,
Dave

no one else knows about this ?
I have the same problem with USB charging in the car when I was running vp3G's Rom. Now I switch to Crc's Rom and the problem is gone.
But my phone would stop charging if I use my GPS software thru bluetooth and bluetooth headset. In that case I just reset my phone and it would charge normal again.
I have seen this too. I don't know the exact details, but the phone checks the charging current when it is on, to see if it's within a certain value. If it's not, it stops the charging circuit to protect the battery. That's why it works when it is asleep. You'll need to buy a car charger specifically designed for the Hermes.
Yep, there is a long thread on car charging on the forum. Like the other uses says, either buy a HTC official charger or have a look at the other thread about soldering pins 4 & 5 together on the USB connector.
I have a generic car charger from a local electronics store that does not have a problem charging whilst talking over a bluetooth hands free and navigating using a
bluetooth gps receiver, however, I am using one of CRC's roms so that might be why.
The only thing I have found is that if I leave the charger plugged into the hermes when I start the car the hermes stops charging and will not charge again until I reboot it... disconnecting the plug before cranking the engine and then whacking it in straight after works around the problem though.
There is probably so much of a voltage drop when cranking the engine that the little DC-DC convertor can not keep the charge current up.
hi guys, I have a very strange problem, when the phone is charging, closes anything I open, I am obliged to remove from office for poetrlo use without problems, you have any idea?
I have encountered strange issue too. It continuesly disconnect with charing.
When i connect the with charger it repeatedly connects & disconnects with charging. I m using Adaptive Wall charger supplied by the Samsung. Even tried different charging cables and chargers too.
Hello. I'm wrecking my brain trying to understand this. Yesterday my phone started exhibiting weird charging behavior. It charges fine when plugged into PC, but does not always charge when plugged into wall unit or car charger. I tried multiple cables/charger combinations which all work as expected with my other phones/tablets. It is only with S7 Edge that I started having an issue. Wireless charging works fine as well. I tested multiple charges/cables while the phone is turned off and the result is the same--works well when plugged into PC, and not well when plugged into wall/car charger. When I use wall charger, it may take me multiple attempts to initiate "charge" status. Is my port messed up? Do I have an issue with (some) charging pins? Has anyone experienced similar issues?
Thanks!
I added a wireless charging receiver to my ZTE Axon 7 mini and I get an odd sputtering/stuttering/hiccuping happen at around 91% charge. Every minute or so the phone looses it's wireless charging connection, reconnects, then continues charging until the next hiccup. Eventually the phone will charge to 100% and the hiccuping then stops.
The problem does not occur when the battery is below about 91%. And I don't get this problem if I simply plug the phone in to charge.
The biggest annoyance for me is that I have it charging at my bedside while sleeping and the frequent charging beeps and screen turning on wakes me up. The solution I've found for now is to set my phone to Silent while I'm sleeping, but though that helps with the beeps I can still get woken up by the flashing screen. And of course, there are other issues I have with setting the phone to Silent.
I have wondered if this was the receiver or the charger at fault but I've tried one other receiver and 2 other chargers with the same result.
I do suspect this has something to do with what I assume is a slowing of the charging rate as the battery gets close to full but I don't know how to confirm that.
Any suggestions to resolve this greatly appreciated.

From what I can guess, the problem was a combination of placement of the phone on the charging pad and/or the presence of a metal disk (behind the receiving pad, though) for a magnetic car mount (though this was not an issue with wireless charging in the car via the mount) and/or the end-of-life of the wireless charger.
I found that placing the phone horizontally and in a specific position stopped the fluttering.
And interestingly, about 2 weeks after this post, the wireless charger gave up the ghost.
