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..
Instead of asking people here, just take your note and charger to Samsung technician

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.
My Note 3 is Hard Bricked
Phone will not power on into any mode, does not act like its charging and is not recognized by my computer.
Does anyone know how to fix this problem?

I was flashing the unified kk firmware that JasmineRom has put out and during the flash I knocked the usb cable out and the phone will no longer turn on.
Yes I have tried multiple chargers and one other battery to be sure.
I have ordered a usb jib in hopes that will work, I'll find that out on tuesday if you don't have any other suggestions.
And if worse comes to worse, I'll be forced to send it to a JTAG place and spend 70 or so bucks to have them fix it...

I've had my axon 7 for 4 days. Good phone BTW. But this morning I woke up to charge my phone only to be woken up by the disconnecting sound. Battery at 30 and it refuses to go any more. Defect? I think so! Damn! Right when I thought this phone will be puuurfect. This happens I waited a long time to get this phone and now I might have to send it back

The AC charger is bad. No wonder for a 400 bucks phone they'll go after the cheapest brand they could to get us 3.0 chargers. Plugged it into my car this morning and it worked. Can I used the fast charger off my s7 edge? The input Is the same the output is obviously higher because it's 3.0 and Samsung one is 2.0. Will ZTE send a replacement charger? Or will I have to buy another. Says on the manual I can't use 3rd party charges too long or I can damage battery, guessing 20-40 cycles. Do I have to purchase another?

you can use any charger you want, but a Dash Charger from Oneplus because it's proprietary.
I personally use an Auckey QuickCharge 3.0 charger and it works great: https://www.amazon.com/AUKEY-Quick-...2-spons&keywords=aukey+quick+charge+3.0&psc=1
and the portable one too.

Ok .. wait... you like the phone ... the phone is perfectly ok ... it has a bad 5 dollar charger so you are going to send back the phone and buy a different lesser quality phone for higher price and .. well .. you may get a faulty charger on that one too .. or maybe even a faulty phone.... why take the chance .. just have ZTE replace the charger since the phone isn't defective. You do realize that you can charge it without QC and it is actually better because no matter what ZTE or anyone says .. QC will kill your battery faster than normal charging so QC should only be used if you need a quick boost and not to charge your phone on a regular basis. .. just use the little adapter they give you and your computer or an old charger you have laying around from your old phone and have ZTE send you a replacement for the bad charger you got.
When things are mass produced there is always a chance for a faulty component... and since the faulty component was the charger not the phone .. it seems kind of a foolish move to replace the phone if you "like it" .. I guess you don't really like the phone if having a charger go bad makes you want to switch out phones.

please state your sources, QC3 is different than raising the amps like the old times, it's a feature included inside the CPU, it's very different.
but I agree, to send back the A7 to get a OnePlus3T that he will get in a month if he is lucky, and since he is not, he might get a faulty one that he will have to send back to China and...

I'll just use my fd s7 edge till. I will be returning this device. It should work great out the box. No problems I will not buy another charger just so it won't work with this phone either. No AC charger works. Not to mention Wi-Fi has less range. Like I said I like this phone but I mostly like it for its sound. Wont keep it just because it sounds awesome when the battery wont charge. Not even going to deal with this sht I'll just get with a company I know makes quality products. Samsung never failed me, HTC either. Good luck guys.

Quick charging produces more heat than standard charging ... heat is what kills the battery. I have done more research and found that the heat caused by QC 3 isn't as bad as it used to be with prior fast charging methods and shouldn't really cause too much degradation of the battery. So if you are one of the people who replace their phone every year or maybe every 2 years .. then I guess QC3 isn't too bad.
If you are like me though, who doesn't replace their phone every year ... then QC3 may impact you if you use it for every charge. LOL .. my last phone before got the Axon 7 for replacement was a Samsung Galaxy S3 ... lol so I keep my phones for a long time .. The only reason I actually replaced the S3 was because I finally dropped it and broke the glass on the screen.

lol no offense but Samsung never failed you ???? you are lucky .. you bought a S7 edge instead of a Note.... Samsung .. a huge company failed a lot of people. But its obvious .. you are pissed off because a mass produced part went bad ... you are pissed because you had bad luck and got one of the bad chargers out of the 100000 chargers sent out. ... You act like the charger that came with it is the only way it can be charged and the phone is a paperweight because of this one small glitch that happens all the time and there is no way to control it.
No company can test every component they sell before it goes out the door... that would cost way too much and raise the price on the components way too much to be useful to anyone. As Samsung proves ... even big companies can have problems. Yes you got a bad charger .. just have ZTE replaced it .. im sure they would replace it without any problems at all. Until you get the replacement use either the cord from the Axon charger and plug that into your computer to charge it .. or use the adapter supplied with a charger that has a micro usb and charge it that way...
At least ZTE will deal with your problem ... I mean I have a Corsair AX760i Power supply .. it was over 200 dollars .. and supposed to be amazing quality .. well .. guess what .. it has a design flaw ... yet they still sell it even tho it has a known design flaw... they just don't care... at least with this ZTE .. its just a mass production issue.... its just a bad luck issue. .... they aren't selling defective products .... you just happened to get one out of thousands that prematurely failed and that happens to every product.

OK. So I've tried to use my s7 edge charger with it and it didn't work. Ironically it works with the car charger and it says AC charging but the phone displays a message to use the included charger for faster results. I come back from break and it don't work on AC, so in all honesty I would like to keep this phone but I think it's a defective unit. Not just the charger. So I'll contact ZTE to get a replacement because the phone is 4 days old. I will have more problems with a device like this if they can't do that I'll just get my money back. Thanks for your comments

yeah it may be an issue with the phone then .. I can plug my phone into my computer using the cord supplied with the original charger and it charges fine through my computer .. I can take my Samsung S3 basic non QC charger and plug it in with the adapter they supplied to convert it from micro to c and it will charge.. yes not fast but it will charge.
I would try plugging it into the computer and see if it will charge ... maybe the QC2 charger from Samsung just isn't compatible with the phone. .. for testing purposes tho .. i would try what I mentioned above .. using the computer with the supplied cord .. or using a basic micro usb charger with the adapter they supplied with the phone and see if it would charge... I guess if the only charger you have is the Samsung QC2 one .. I would try the computer with the supplied cord. I'm lucky I have a bunch of basic chargers lying around and they work to charge the phone without any problems .. yes its not quick charge but it still charges the phone.
If it wont charge when plugged into the computer ... or with a basic non QC charger and using the adapter to change from micro to c, then it may be something in the phone too ... but again ... these things happen with all mass produced products ... if you even have to do a full exchange ... hopefully you wont have bad luck with the replacement. My phone was fine out of the box ... as is with many others who bought it .. but ... again with all mass produced products ... it is always a crap shoot .... you can never say that each and every person is going to get a fully working product. Again to guarantee that they would have to test each phone and charger before packaging it and selling it.... and that would take many man hours and a lot of bucks so if they were to do that ... this phone would cost probably about 4000 dollars instead of 400.
I have to say I've had this phone now for a couple of months and I've had the s7 edge and s6 edge before that. I don't see the need for rooting the phones since i got the s6 edge onwards. The phones perform well out the box. But on all the Samsung's I've had from the original s series then the note series... There would be some sort of lag somewhere.... Though the Samsung's have improved recently... Still there is lag every now and then. This Chinese version Axon 7 i have is just totally lag free. It's on stock I've not done anything with it and it's working perfect out the box. I've got 2 sim and a 64gb sd card in it giving me a grand total of 188gb with dual sim. What can i say..... If they invest in some other features for the software... This phone can take over the smartphone market in a big way.

Coming from the HTC M8, the only difference that I noticed in wifi performance between the M8 and this phone is that the A7 takes twice as long as the M8 when connecting to a wifi source. When I say longer, mind you, I am only talking about ten seconds or so vs less than five for the M8. So, still not bad and totally acceptable. Once connected, the connection stays solid though. I am really happy with this phone. It is better than the M8 in every way. Beautiful design(esp. the front compared to the M8), newer and faster processor, bigger and better display, 4K recording, fingerprint sensor, USB-C, QC 3.0, dual SIM/microSD up to 256GB, Tmobile Band 12 support and, of course, the awesome audio/speakers. All that for almost $300 less than what I paid for the M8. This is without a doubt one of the best values in the high-end smartphone market right now. A premium phone but without a premium price.

What was the charging temperature? I think over 44°C it shuts off. I sometimes have big lags when I download or stream stuff while charging. I had two other devices so far, this newer device has a larger actual battery capacity than the previous one but has this heating behavior. I think this is due to having different voltage settings to ensure larger battery capacity since it is still directly correlated. The other device didn't have this issue and felt more fluid overall but battery was depleting a little bit faster.
It may be that your device has too aggressive voltage settings and it stops charging because of overheating. But it is strange that it happens while you don't use the device at all.
Can you install accubattery and check your charging stats, estimated battery capacity, temperature, etc.?

I received mine a few days ago and it won't enter quick charge and I have to jiggle the charge cable to keep it connected. Tried multiple chargers and cables. ZTE tells me it's a bad charge port or battery. Too bad it's a great phone otherwise. It will have to go back though. 15 hours to charge from 0 is not helpful.

I am. Sure replacement will be great. I had 4 devices and they were all great, so you were just unlucky. Compares to other brands I had before, quality has been very consistent from device to device.

Thanks. Sadly, though, it started out great, but then started suffering from the same issue as the first. It's not quite taking 15 hours to charge, life the first, but a solid eight or nine. Also, there is the additional bonus of white flashing horizontal lines every so often, until I restart the phone.
I wonder if B&H got a bad batch. I noticed two other people, in different forums that got there's from B&H, had the exact same charge issue. Strange.
I've been living with it, until I can get a LeEco to play with, then it's getting RMAed. Hopefully the third will be the charm!

I've been living with it, until I can get a LeEco to play with, then it's getting RMAed. Hopefully the third will be the charm!

Which version have you been using? This is something strange. Do you think B&H may be sending returned faulty devices to their customers? You seem to be amongst a tiny minority of people who have issues - such a level of faultiness cannot exist for any manufacturer, it just contradicts the principles of manufacturing smartphones.

First I had a gold A2017U. Then a silver one. I have also heard some people that bought from Best Buy and had strange issues. I can tell you both got a big shipment in right before Thanksgiving. I almost didn't buy the phone because they were both out. The suddenly that week they both had them in stock. As a side note the tech support person at ZTE mentioned he had a few people with similar problems and was going to swap it out without hesitation. Instead I just returned it to B&H for a new one.
My tinfoil hat theory, and I have a background in manufacturing as an engineer, is that they cranked up production to meet holiday demand and didn't pay as close attention to QC (ie what parts their suppliers were providing). But I have no idea. It's just heresy and anecdotes from people. ::shrug::

I should mention, I still love the phone, and have no I'll will towards ZTE. It's an amazing bargain, and the best no contract phone I've had, aside from the issues. I looking forward to getting a replacement.

Outlet means charging Adapter ????
You might be using bad charger or cable... It should take about 2 hours from 10-100%

That's what happened with mine when I bought it. So, I tried to switch between different ports and got it solved. Also, I switched to custom Roms, then never faced it.

The charger or cable must be broken / defect..
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.
