Hi
I have s4 i9500
When it is turned off battery charges normally but while it is on charges too slow !
Even it loses charge !
First i thought it might be because of the USB cable but i bought another one. But the problem is still killing me.
And factory reset did not help.
Tried a different charger? Different battery?

hello everyone!
after upgrading to bigstorage my jam discharges when plugged to the charger instead of charging!!!
it charges normally through sync cable.
any ideas???
thanks!
Upgrading to BigStorage has nothing to do with your battery problem as myself and so many other users have done so without having such experience. You have also proven that by saying that it charges properly with the sync cable. For sure there is a short circuit in your charger causing it to discharge the battery. Check for dirt inside the usb connector of your charger.
Well, I've BigStorage too, but I haven't got the same problem. Maybe you should check what zerimar said, and if the problem stands still, you should buy a new charge cable.
One question:
Before the BigStorage, the charger worked correctly?
thanks for answeeing!
yes, before upgrading everything worked normally.
when i plug the charger the orange light lihgts up as it should and the in the power screen it says 'çharging' , but it doesn't charge!
i've cleaned the cables, the battery and the sim card but still the same.
everything else works perfectly well.
Well, I guess the only thing that hopefully will help is to do a hard reset.
hey...i got the same problem. i even tried hardreset and the problem still there. there is nothing wrong with my charger since my charger works well with other magician.
i think the main problem is the magician unit itselves. i just dont have time to return it to the store since my life depends on it . well at least it still charges with sync cable.
ok now i'm mixed up.
i did a hard reset, downgrated to the previous original rom, but the problem is there.
it isn't the charger because when the backup battery reduses to 50% with charger it gets back to 100%
so my charger discharges my battery but charges the back up battery.
i did a lot of search, a few other people had similar problems but no solutions
found!
Try to fully discharge the battery in a natural way by leaving your unit on then charge again. Do not use your charger to discharge the battery. If my memory serves me right I think that's what some posters adviced.
I still believe that there is something wrong with your AC charger. If you have the possibility of borrowing a charger, or go to a shop who sells Magicians and ask if you could quickly make a test.
thanks a lot!
i'll try now and let you know!
discharging the battery did not work.
now i'll try the new ac adapter.
if it does not work then i'll just curry my laptop with me!!!
thanks for your help!
new ac adapter and everything works fine!\
thanks everyone!
Glad to be (and others) of help. Nice to know that everything is working fine and that you're happy.
I own a Gene now showing a weird problem, if i connect the charger then it the full charge green led will glow after sometime, but lose charge very fast. There is no problem if i used usb cable for charging. Is this a problem of charger or the charging port. The phone some times restarts when charged using charger.

hi
danish im also having this problem from some time so what i did is that i kept battery out of of phone for a day & then charged it through usb after that use its whole charge & when phone gets off then do the calibration process i think this problem arises due to countinous flashing of roms so dont flash device till its 100% charged
hey sam.
Did this procedure solved ur problems? Is it working fine now?
jerin
no still having this problem
but i find out that when i charge my gene through usb and then flash a new rom this problem goes off and then i can charge my phone through charger but after a week this problem comes back and then again i have to charge through usb . its just un understandable
Hi there,
I have a big problem with charging my Galaxy S4. It only charges with my notebook USB Port, my AC-adapter does not work.
In the battery menu I can see that AC is connected, when I plug my adapter in. But charging does not work with my device.
Over USB I can charge slowly. This isn't a software problem, I have done some resets and firmware changes since the problem.
Maybe my phone got a little bit wet earlier. Could this be the problem? Can I fix this with changing the USB port part of the hardware?

Yes, I tried another cable but had no success
I dunno if I can ask it here, but i don't charge over usb, i mean it just "hold" the power level for me. Is that normal ?
Is your AC outlet working ?
Having issue where S4 only charges with USB and vibrates when using AC charger
I've been having some issues with my S4. I did recently get it a little wet, but it's working fine in all cases except charging. I have my phone next to my bed charging every night. I noticed it was dead one morning, but I figured I didn't connect the charger properly. The next night I noticed it was vibrating every 5 seconds or so, but the phone had turned off due to a low battery. Very strange behavior.
I realized that it would start charging, but it would stop between 1-3 minutes. The the phone would vibrate and not charge.
I've ready MANY posts from others with the same issue and someone mentioned their phone charges over USB. Seemed odd, but I tried it and voila, my phone charged perfectly. I have many samsung cables, none of which work. It's definitely not the cable. I can plug a samsung cable into my phone connected to AC and it doesn't work. I pull the USB portion out of the AC charger and plug into a computer and it immediately and consistently charges. The battery holds its charge as expected, so it doesn't appear to be a battery issue.
I've tried the developer mode options - no luck.
I've tried bending the charging prong - no luck.
I've tried blowing out the charging port with compressed air - no luck.
I recently got an update pushed to my phone (Sprint), but I don't think it was happening right after the update. Seems like a likely software issue.
I did get my phone a little wet recently, actually it was my young children throwing water at me.
I've read so many posts and nobody seems to have a good answer for this issue. Any suggestions are appreciated.
fast charge suddenly stopped working
i noticed that the cable have one (golden) pin missing out of 5...
i tried other cable still the same
and it says (Cable Charging) and from 10% it need 5 hours to fully charge!
any way my friend came with an s6 and he tried my charger
it fast charge his phone with any cable
whats wrong and what to do
thanks
My fastcharging was really unreliable. I bought a new cable and it works everytime now.
The stock Samsung cable is really bad. Get another cable and it will work. This happened to me at least. Changed the cable now Fast Charge works all the time.
Hi, I have an unsolvable problem with the battery terribly quickly becomes exhausted, and I have a very slow charging when I'm on Facebook and I have a phone on the AC Charger and my phone faster discharge the condenser before charged, already unsure of what I tried to reinstall the firmware I bought a new original battery and a new charging adapter with a new cable and the problem is still the same.
It is 10% battery, connect the phone to the charger and writes me the phone will be fully charged in 4 hours ,when the phone was new ,charging took about 1.5 hours. Please help me someone.
Do I have to now focus on USB charge port on my phone or it can be a problem in software? bad kernel?
