Hello,
My S9+ has a problem when using wireless charging, the phone will auto unlock.
Does anyone know the reason for this or it's just me having this issue?
:silly:
If you mean does the screen come on, then yes. However I still need to swipe to unlock.

What phone case do you use?
I not sure if your phone case has a magnet it may effect with wireless charger, because wireless charger use electromagnets power
Did you change the "Developer options" menu? There are "Stay awake" mode, and the screen will never sleep while charging.
Also, it can use "Face recognition" when you look at it
Any case that is not official and is more than like 5mm thick will affect the wireless charging abilities of the S9+.
Having root will stop the option to enable fast wireless charging appearing in the accessories section (In fact on g9650 Accessories no longer shows in settings after root is active - at least in my experience).
Paid 2500 Pesos Argentinos for my Samsung Wireless charging stand, didn't even come with a cable in the box and is Micro USB so my USB C won't run it. Very disappointed in this and the strength of the charging cable in general, but the cost and treatment of consumers in Argentina is not the greatest anyways.
Edit: I rescind my comment about the Accessories section not showing, this was my own stupidity. Also, changing the USB cable of the fast charger to a different one has solved the fast charging issue.
Still think for the amount of money that was paid for it a cable should have been included

When the phone is charging, and i try to use touch, i notice the input is jittery- try pulling down the notification bar on the top, and holding it half way down the screen and looking closely. Scroll with lists and hold your finger in once place - does the list jump around slightly?
Is it just me or everyone?
Maybe I should not use my blackberry charger at work! I will test with the samsung charger at home (the output voltage is the same as the samsung so it shouldnt matter!)
I feel you man! Had the exact same problem with the original Galaxy (i7500) - my unofficial charger made it impossible to type anything: heavy jitter.
Ccl: find a charger with the exact same specs...or just use the official one / or usb cable.
No problems here. typing this using swype While charging and its faultless!

Well it's better than my Desire which gives you a static charge or electric leak somewhere when charging and you touch the metal bezel.
i read something about this issue in the user manual, the PDF one somewhere in this forum
look it up, and read the battery or charging section
Have the same exact problem with my Original Galaxy S when using a "not-samsung" micro USB charger, with the obvious difference that my screen became completely unusable not just "jittery", it didn't respond to any touch when charging it with that charger.
Use official charger and it'll be fine !
Yup it is mentioned in the user manual, it said the touch screen may not function well due to an unstable power supply. I guess it applies to all touch screen phones.
thanks for the input guys and hopefully this will clear it up for anyone else confused by this.
Last question - am I damaging my phone by charging it on my blackberry charger?
Only one I have at work which is why I ask,
Thanks.
While I cannot confirm whether it will damage the SGS II or not, I can certainly say that when I used to use BB Chargers to charge my Motorola Razr among others that were Mini USB, they ended up ruining the battery life and giving me false readings about the percentage left.
Personaly I would not take the risk for my beloved 600€-phone

Yeah. But is the current the same? It may not be supply enough amperage for stability.

Thats funny my iPhone 3GS does the same thing.

I dont know - I just tested and the same thing happens with my old Samsung Galaxy S 1 charger . hmm.
(my phone works just fine.(only while charging via pc). it does jitter when you charge it through mains.
voltage converter?
Since I live in the US and ordered a UK model, will i need a voltage converter + plug adapter for my charger or will a simple plug adapter work just fine?
This phone has capacitative touch screen, and I believe this works on the principle of changes in electric field upon bringing a conductor(read "finger") near the charged display. I suppose during the charging process the leaked current is interfering with this electric field causing those above mentioned problems. Might be substandard charging adapters?
Same problem on my Dell Streak! A good thing to test it is Swype! The line your finger makes when typing goes all over the place!

It'll charge over the usb lead from a PC or mains adapter just fine.
I always use pc to charge my phone is it ok ? will it be better charging from AC ?
Greetings. I'm new to these forums though I have visited numerous times to find fixes to various issues. I have rooted my Note 3 with towel root and now have Lollipop 5.0 rooted installed. I was hoping to install the Xposed framework in order to finally be able to kill the screen turning on with wireless charging problem. I wake up at night to my phone screen turning on and off as it cycles through charging and charge full notifications. I have installed "Headsoff" app which has killed the issue with wired charging and does prevent the sound notification with wireless charging but the screen still turns on. I also installed "App Ops," went into System UI and turned off Post notification per someone elses recommendation. Again, this seems to only apply to the wired screen on with charge function. When I tried to install Xposed framework, I learned it won't install on Android 5 without writing new code in the OS? This seems highly technical and risky to me as I am not that savvy with writing code. I have searched the forums and find many postings complaining about this problem and the best fix seems to install Xposed which seems hard to do with Android 5. I would greatly appreciate any input about how to solve this. Perhaps going with a custom ROM? Any recommendations? Thanks.
Developer options ON?

Settings -> Developer options -> Stay Awake?

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I've already tried that and have confirmed the "stay awake" fnt in developer options is turned off. Also, this is only happening with wireless charging. I have a wireless charge base next to my bed and also have one in my car. If I bypass wireless and directly hook up the cable, I have no problems. Very frustrating.
I am still hoping for help with this problem. I have searched and just don't find an obvious fix. I keep waking up to my display lighting up briefly. Once it starts, it cycles every few minutes; on/off. I don't know for sure but think it is the charge full/wireless charging cycle. It doesn't buzz or make noise as I have killed the sound notification. However; I can find no way to prevent the display from turning on. I found an app called "Screen Stay Off" which is supposed to prevent this. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. It causes the screen to flicker on/off rapidly, then the screen turns on and stays on. Frustrating. I am open to using a different ROM if no other solution. Thanks.

I have an s4 with a wireless qi receiver attached to the battery terminals. It also cycles through charging/not charging and it doesn't seem to matter how full the battery is. Sometimes, it will charge for 10 minutes and then just stop charging. Removing it from the charging pad and putting it back on will not charge the phone even though the receiver is detected by the pad.
I have a qi receiver on order for my note n900w8 and hope to have better luck with that than my s4.

Thanks. I haven't noticed a problem with charging. Mine seems to get into this cycle only after it achieves full charge. Then the "full charge" notification comes. Phone stops charging and starts discharging. Then when it drops to ~ 98%, it starts charging again and I get the "wireless charging" notification. After root and going through various settings, I have killed the notifications that used to pop up; "Full charge, please disconnect the phone from the charger" and then "wireless charge detected" notifications. However, I can't prevent the display from lighting up. If changing out the wireless receiver fixes your problem, please let me know. I wasn't thinking the receiver might be the cause, but at this point, I'll give it a try. Last night I capitulated and plugged the phone in directly to the charge cable and bypassed the wireless charger. I have no issues that way. Why wireless charging functions differently is a mystery to me.
With my s4, i tried 3 different wireless pads and only two of the three would detect the receiver and charger sporadically. One of the wireless chargers was a google nexus wireless charger. Hopefully, I will have better luck with my note 3 when I get the receiver from eBay. I got two note 3 receivers with nfc from eBay but neither of those receivers would work with my sm-n900w8.
My nexus 4 and nexus 5 which have built-in wireless charging receivers, works perfectly with all three charging pads without issue. They charge fully and don't give me messages that the battery is full.
Hi,
So I bought the Samsung Wireless charger stand (say fast charging) http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...ging-stand-black-ep-ng930bbugca/10418050.aspx because it was on promo. I try with 2 device, and it never say Wireless Fast Charging.
If i just use the USB cable and plug to my phone, it say fast charging.
I already replace 1 in store, so i though it was the wireless charger the issue, but the second one, does the same.
Also the time remaining stay the same if I use the USB cable or the Wireless charger.
So my question is, am I suppose to see Wireless Fast charging ?
It is setup to ON in the Battery setting.
I try both S6 and S7 Edge.
Thanks!
yeah I was at a best buy yesterday and saw it for the first time. When I tried it out it also did not fast charge. My fast charger at home though needs the phone to be placed in a certain position for it to catch for fast charging. Its a little cumber sum but I got it down pat right now
U may have to manually turn it on. Mine turned on on its own. U can toggle on/off in battery section same place as the regular fast charge option. Either that or that wireless charger was not really "fast".
Mine does that on occasion and I have to lift the phone up and place it on the pad again in a slightly different position and then it says fast charging wirelessly. Be sure you have a quick charge power cord plugged into the pad

I have activated the switch "No standby when charging" in developer settings to keep the screen on during charging. The phone keeps screen-on when connected to USB-Cable no matter whether connected to charger or to PC. So far, so good.
But the screen switches off after the time set in settings when on wireless charger, which IMHO should not happen, as the phone is charging.
Could somebody confirm that this happens not only on my phone? It's a bug in my eyes, but I'd like to know wheter it's standard.
Thanks in advance
My Sprint version calls the option "Stay awake," but it works the same way yours does. When charging wirelessly the screen does time out.

I translated my german captions, so my european version might call it the same in english. Thank you for confirming that this behaviour is stock.
I have a Verizon LG V20 (LG-VS995LG-VS995). I would like to know when it is in Qualcomm Quick Charge (QC) (aka Adaptive Fast Charge) mode. There were a couple of ways to tell with my ol' Note4. With my new V20, either I'm never in QC mode, or I'm not looking in the right place. Does whatever the indicator is differentiate between 2.0 and 3.0 (from what I've read, the V20 is supposed to take 3.0)?
There are lots of apps related to battery use. Anybody's happy or unhappy experience with those would be of interest to me too. I started looking at them, hoping for a simple way to tell if my V20 is in QC mode, but, alas, I read through several apps' descriptions, and nobody was touting that.
Should appear in your notification if it is fast charging. Usually pops up within a second of plugging it in.
Says fast charging on the lock screen and also if you drag down the notification bar it says fast charging.

Apps aren't as quick as an inline usb meter. Used a yzx studio zy1270 and it says the stock charger does QC3
For a quick tell as the others have said it says fast charging on the lock screen with Qc3. If you don't see the word fast a few secnds after plugging in then it isn't fast charging
Bear in mind that quick charge only works with the screen off. If you use the phone with the screen on the power input drops from a max of 13W when battery is under 70% and charging to about 5W
The USB interface is usb c but the v20 is actually usb 2. So i use the charging cable that came with my G4, usb a to micro usb cable with a micro to usb c adapter and it quick charges just fine
