Anybody ever hear of this?
Started intermittently charge/stop charging.. Then just stopped.
Rebooted? Nothing.
I have an extra battery...tried that....same thing!
Finally I wiped everything and it charged again...all night (thank God... I was at 15%)
BUT....checked just a bit ago and it was intemittently charging and stopping again...now I'm back to no charging. WTF....lol.
Only other info I can offer is the that at times I've used a second nonNote android charger (meant for my hotspot device...that does output to 1.2 but I don't think that would do anything..I used it on my Galaxy 2 Touch for months.
If anyone can give any insights I'd greatly appreciate.
I cannot charge my Note at all rights now.
Have you tried a different charger and/or USB cable?
Regards,
Dave
Thanks...yeah 2 different chargers. USB...you mean charging via PC right? You know i haven't tried it believe it or not!
I'm sure i could wipe everything again and it'd work again..but...big pain!
Right now I have to wall charge the battery itself.
Hey OP, any updates on this??
After I flashed Abyss 2.5 on top of Cassie's V3 on my Note a few days ago it started doing the charge/stop status and I could ONLY charge it while off and even sometimes it was awakening it self up!! And finally it gave up to no charge at all.
As from yesterday is officially "dead" since no recovery/download mode can be entered because of low battery. "Download" mode say's too low battery and it can't download.
Hey guys I really need some help on this. NO external battery chargers are available to try and no one I know has another Note to ask to charge my battery..
What do you thing? Faulty hardware/micro-usb port or something? I'm NOT blaming anyone since it's not a widespread issue but this DID happened ONLY after flashing Abyss 2.5 from CF KKA.
Thank you for your help guys in advance. Please let's try and resurrect my NOTE!
P.S: Also I forgot to add that immediately after flashing Abyss 2.5 I lost USB functionality in any way while power on.
I also tried:
3-4 different wall sockets.
2 different working cables. Original and one SE brand. Both working on other devices.
Tried removing battery MANY times.. left from 20sec to 1-5minutes etc(despair yeah).
PLEASE any info/help would be GREATLY appreciated..

And risk of having my 2year warranty thrown because of root or custom rom which they can blame for my problem? I think otherwise.
When I manage to charge the battery I might put everything back to stock and take it for a check if the problems continue.
Btw, you response: "...Instead of asking people here..." got me thinking a bit.. It should made you think a bit too.. Why?
Because 95% of your problems can be solve from online research. Relatively speaking of course. The ONLY times I couldn't fix something by my self(speaking for electronics, but can be applied on many other different occasions) was because of soldering needs which then I have a certified friend with good soldering skills and he does the job for me..
Example: One Acer 7736Z I was repairing had a blown/dead power ic chip. I ordered it, my friend soldered it since I never messed with soldering and all good. Done.
Another example: I have a Sammy 59D550. I had some problems.. Should I every time that I have a problem find a car to transfer it to the repair center/shop or do some research online which in the end I fixed my problem with a simple firmware update..? I prefer the latter.
Please excuse the comment, I meant it in a more generalized way, not directly to you, but that "...Instead of asking people here..." got me a bit going. No offense meant.

A little update on my "situation".. Phone is charging and ALL thanks to ephestione. Also I followed the video below and did exactly on my note and it's charging as we speak..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pYcgmLhUcQ
Procedure: As it might help future visitors.
I cut a mini usb since as I have many spare.
Attached only the red(positive)/black(negative) wires to the phone's corresponding battery pin.
Forced the battery in to secure a good grip between them.
Connected the other normal USB end plug to my Note's original Samsung USD charger.
Phone is successfully charging for now.
I believe what I did was wipe all and reflash, ...and all was well.
I have found my Note and SGS2 to be pretty sensitive to chargers. What do you mean outputs to 1.2? You need it to output at least 800mah, probably 1000mah. I would expect the Note to draw more power than the SGS2 but I'm not sure. I bought a Rocket Fish (good quality usually) charger from Best Buy. It didn't even say on the box but output only 600mah and the phone acted just like you are saying.
One charger I bought from Walmart, if I plug it in the TOUCH SCREEN STOPS WORKING!! Crazy!
I have had good luck with blackberry chargers. Make sure the USB cable you use is good also. I have had some that worked great with other phones and not with Galaxy phones, even some that worked great with my SGS2 don't work so good with my Note.
wipe battery stats
i reckon you hard reset and stick to OEM batteries, and buy an external charger on ebay!
I am also having a charging problem but it is because any charger that I plug in is loose in the phone and only having it in the right position works. I have tried many different chargers but my port on the phone is just too loose. How do I get it to a Samsung repair shop? I called samsung and they told me they only fix phones that are ment for the US and my phone is an international version.

Unfortunately, Samsung does not service international note in the states. They do not train as their product is not officially sold.

So am I just out of luck getting my charging port fixed?
My note did the same thing. I took some compressed air and sprayed the micro usb charge port with it a few times. Worked like a charm. Remember if any of the pins don't make contact then it wont charge.
Know this might sound goofy but same thing happen to me.
2 things that im pretty sure in some combo, was the issue
1. USB port got dirt/debris
2. The kernel I was running. Im 99% sure this was the issue all along. I was running abyss or something like that.
I've been reading a lot of problems which are probably caused by the stock charger. At first weeks, it charged slow, then normal, then fast and now this: (attachment).
I have no problem at all with my old blackberry standard charger, I won't use the stock again, since I've read like 2-3 threads that it may cause the red light brick, plus that noisy buzz.
Could it be a batch of defective stock chargers?
I would like to know if there is an manufacturing issue involved, for example, only devices made on Hong Kong on dates from 0ct to nov on 2012 are failing. (Im randomly throwing dates and countrys)
All my charging problems gone when I replaced the stock USB cable with another one. It worth the try.

Well, I,m a bit deaf so I can't assure if it buzzs or no... but at least it takes less time to charge, so who knows...
I bought the original LG nexus 4 car charger (charges as AC) and for home I'll use my blackberry..
I have recently experienced horrible charging and it takes about 15 hours with the original charger. I have tried with many other chargers and still the same result. I have also tried charging with the phone off but same result. I still have the stock ROM as there is really not many compatible ROMs out there. I then found a non-official CM 13 ROM and tried to flash it but then fastboot wouldn't work. I have done it before and I have unlocked the bootloader but I have tried every single fastboot option out there both on Windows and Linux with every single android driver I could find and also adb won't work unless it is over wifi. So this makes me a little nervous that it might not be the battery something is wrong with. I have also wiped cache and everything else since I have flashed a new ROM since. So my question is: can it be something else than the battery that is causing the slow charging? If not I am just going to buy a new battery. I don't care about fastboot as I am just using micro-sd to flash new ROMs. And if no direct answer please say if you would spend 35 USD on a new battery just to try.
Hi it's not a very old phone for the battery to go bad already if I were you I would suspect the charger has gone bad and try to get a new charger first. It should fully charged from empty in about 1 hour mine does.

Thx. But have tried every single charger. Just bought the 3T. Completely forgot about this thread.
well congratulations ive heard the 3T is also a very good phone and has the fastest rapid charging off all the phones.
I been thinking about getting this but amazon is full of reviews from people saying it only lasted a month, battery bulged and broke the screen, one guy saying he's on his third replacement, another about how it died and burned his USB cables, etc
Is it that bad? did anyone here got some serious hardware problems with this phone?
This is my first Android phone i have had zero hardware problems, had it over a year now. It was out of commission for 3 months because of a boot loop, but that was my fault, not installing a new Rom correctly. Currently running TURBO's MIAU Destroyer V12 not a single hiccup in 6 months.

Did you try official lineage? how did it go?
If you think its bad why even thinking of buying it? million of phones out there
I have X720 over 6 months it work well. I been flashing everything stock rom, Aicp, Omni, Turbo roms, Tora33 rom and more. Still use it everyday. If you know what you doing with your own it should be fine.
The thing is the Lineage Nougat family rom (non stock) maybe only few of them that work well for example I found AICP Nougat pretty good, I heard good things about Lineage but haven't really try it. You need 1-2 good rom and stick with it should be best.

I've had two.
The fingerprint reader stopped working on the first after one week.
The second has been working fine so far for the last four months.
I have had 727 with no problems at all and I have tried every rom and best results have been 21s stock remove bunch of junk.
Runs perfect.

FP I never have single problem on X720. Try flash latest stock rom it might help.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I already tried the latest stock rom.
The fingerprint reader was working and then suddenly stopped working (LineageOS is installed on the phone), so I assume it's the fingerprint reader that has failed.
If you had asked me a few days ago, I would have said that it's the best phone I have ever owned. The battery last for me 3 days, with 7h SOT on average. I had zero issues ever since I bought it begining of 2017 on sold.
But yesterday, with absolutely no reason at all, when I plugged the cable for charging (original LEECO cable and charger), the USB-C port just burned. It was very fast, as soon as I plugged it, I smelled burn odour. I unplugged, the USB port was hot with burn marks. I tried another cable, burned like the first one.
I have now a phone with less than 15% of battery I cannot recharge anymore. It will go in the trash as soon as I used the remaining battery to retrieve all my data by wifi because there is no aftersale for LEECO anymore. It's a real shame, the phone was really great to use.
I looked over the internet, several people seem to have similar issues lately with this phone. Looks like a hardware problem that just started to appear lately on several devices. Maybe a wrong batch of phones, but it's 300€ for a few month of use only.

Yeah, I can confirm that there are problems with a batch LEX720. My device died while trying to recharge. I plugged in the orginal cable for charging, the device went off and could not be started anymore. Now I am annoyed about the Banggood support. It is really a great device, but not if it only lasts 2 months!
It's sad to hear about your devices dying while charging.
I didn't trust the original cable or the charger. First thing I did was buy a trusted USB A charger, and 56k Ohm USB A to C cable.
It really is an amazing phone (when used with a custom rom) when it works.

Don't use the stock cable, I doubt it's Benson approved or even safe for non-China use. Use a USB-C cable approved by Benson Leung, a Google engineer. Like the stock Google Pixel cable.
USB-C to USB-A has a lot of issues. Many cables aren't made to spec, and can cause fires if you're not careful. Stop using the LeEco stock cable and buy a better one from a reputable brand!
I have 3 LeEco phones, Le Max2 x829, LE Pro3 x720 and Le Pro3 Elite x722, All of them I always use charger and cable that come with the phone. I never have any problem. I sold the Le Max2 recently which was work perfect.
I'm a little scared to use the original charger and cable after reading the horror stories I'll probably start off with my old Nexus 6p charger and cable until I can find a good third party charger and cable!

Before I have Lg V20 use its charger to charge LeEco phones too which work fine without problem. Lg quick charger come with a thick strong cable.
---------- Post added at 03:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 AM ----------
LeEco quick charger come with skinny cable compare to Lg cable.
Got 2 leecos in the house for over a year. The original lead for my pro3 went bad not long ago, where it would keep stopping charging, the charger and the charger and lead for the max 2 are fine though.
Seems it maybe worth buying a lead at least, if your worried.
i replaced the original usb c cable with an ebay one, then it has been working fine for just over a year. great phone. never give any problems.
The stock charger can burn the USB port, which might be a fire hazard. I wouldn't use it personally even if it hasn't happened to you yet. I use my Kindle Fire's wallplug, and Suaoki type C cable. It's cheap and Benson approved.

I've had mine since November of 2016, so a little over a year. None of these issues have popped up. Now, a broken screen can occur to any phone if you drop it. I haven't read the reviews, so not sure about the context.
Other than that my experience has been good, especially as someone coming from the LG G4 (boot looped). Battery life is back to the LG G2 days, so I get well over 6 SOT, and can easily hit 8-9. On wifi battery life is crazy as well.
Hi, I got a Nothing Phone (1) around 20 days back. Ever since the Phone has received only one system update that too was just a couple of days ago. I thought the battery drainage was something that happened from the beginning. A couple of days back, the phone wasn't charging. I was using a third-party adapter, One Plus Warp Charger for One Plus 7T my previous phone. Anyone facing battery issues with third-party charging. I am getting myself the Nothing Adapter for sure. I just hop I am not too late. I love the experience but battery life and charging issues are something I don't want to deal with again!!
I'm have been using third party 35w charger since I got my Nothing. Working perfectly fine, charging fast, battery working fine as usual. Nothing Adapter kinda pricy to me so....

i am using one plus 7T 30W charger. i doesn't do rapid charging. That might the reason why..also the adapter is expensive..true

Better invest in a proper charging adapter because the one you're using rn have different technical specs comparing to the Nothing phone adapter
