One of my two phone batteries (both official LG batteries) will only charge if I put it in an external charger - it will not accept a charge if left in the phone and the phone is connected to a charger. My other battery is fine - i.e. it will charge in either the phone or in an external charger.
I was wondering if anyone knew why a battery would not charge when in the phone, but will do so when in an external charger?

I am using the Cingular 8125, which I think is the same as the Wizard. Since I travel frequently I thought I could buy one of those USB power adapters (with a USB connection) and recharge my 8125 through the included USB cable. This works fine with my PC. A strange thing happened: the battery indicator told me the battery was charging. the 8125 had about 50% left when I hooked it up, and when I checked later after I disconnected it, it said 87%. However, this number went down in fron of my eyes, about 1% a second until it stabilized at around 45%. I think, the chrager did not work at all! Does anybody know what the requirements for a USB charger are to work? The one I have says 5V, 300 mA. I figure that may be too small, since the charger that came with the device says 5V, 1A. Or is there anything that would prevent the device from charging with a non-HTC charger?
I just recently bought a wall charger since I lost the original one a while back. I've been charging via USB this whole time (maybe 6-8 months now). Anyway, when I charge with the wall charger, it'll say 100% and the green light would turn on (instead of the orange/amber for charging) so I assume that it's done. As soon as I unplug it, it drops maybe like 20-30%.
Is this a problem with the charger? Or the battery itself? I don't think it's battery since I've never had this problem when I would charge via USB. Could it be that my phone's just not used to being charged with a wall charger? Maybe because it's being charged faster with the wall charger that it's "used to" with USB? Any thoughts would be great.
No there's nothing wrong with your phone,if it gets charged via usb,then its fine.Fault is with your new wall charger,is it compatible with your phones specifications ? is it the original recommended or from other third party manufacturer ?. Wall charger must output a charge of 1.0 amp to fully get the pda battery,less then 1.0 amp will not charge the battery. Check this out,ok
Cheers!
Hi,
I bought a wall charger for my N1 today. I was searching for one with 1000 mA output so the phone would charge twice as fast, but after having it on for a long time and seeing that it was only 22% charged, I looked at the battery status and it said "USB". I unplugged it, plugged the stock adapter and it said "AC", and started to charge at the usual speed.
Is there a way to have wall chargers that are NOT the ones provided by HTC charge at a normal speed? thanks!
Interesting... it happens the same thing with an iPhone charger, which have the same output characteristics as the stock charger. I never thought looking at the battery status
FWIW, you can easily see if your phone is charging fast or slow by installing the quick system info app (AC=fast, USB=slow).
I'm using the 1000 mA charger with the USB to micro USB cable that came bundled with the phone. Might it be the cable limiting the power?
I've been trying to figure this out too...
I bought a USB car charger to charge my phone in the car whilst driving.
However even with my phone on standby it still loses power.... I don't know whether it's because I'm using the USB cable or the charger is inferior.
It is rated a 1000mA (the charger).
I bought the HTC car charger from expansys.. bit costly at around £20 for a charger but it works perfectly for me. Drove 4 hours with copilot running, and battery remained perfectly charged
As well as the stock charger, I often use a pikie USB charger with a Nokia micro USB cable... phone reports an AC charger in use.
Hi! I have a HTC P4350 with a big problem. He don't want to charge the battery. Actually when i plug in the charger he say that it's charging until the green light apears. Let's say that i've plug in the charger at 51%; the phone it's charging until 100% but when i'll disconnect it the battery will decrease again percent by percent and in five minutes or something the level will be again 51%. I have an external charger which it's charging corectly my battery but it's annoying to change the battery to the charger, and when it's full back to the phone over and over again.
So, the battery it's fine, i can connect the phone to the PC and i can sync it so the USB it's fine...
One more thing: the phone was started to do that 2 years ago. I bought that external charger and i used it for 6 months after I've don't use it(the phone) until 2 days ago. So, i've put it in charger and it worked at the first push of the button. I've left it in charger by the night but in the morning i've got an RLOD. So i've use the old external charger and the phone works, only with this problem... he won't charge.
Any ideas? Thanks and sorry for my English
Hello XDA!.
I'm new here, but oh well.
My Galaxy S5, Is having charging issues, comes and goes.
Using the Ampere app I'm measuring the charging speed.
Charging with stock AC Charger - 450mA - USB Charging, It won't charge at full speed 1.8 - 2.0A.
Charging with an Aukey Superspeed charger - 1.8A, Charges fine but sometimes stuck at 450mA USB Speed.
Charging with Anker Powercore 20400mAh . 450mA, USB Speed?.
I've switched between three different batteries, all of them does this, sometimes the phone simply tells me that the battery is dead, and it won't charge. ( Note: Phone won't charge but turns on with cable in).
What can I do?, buy a new phone?
Thanks.
