but when i connect usb cable to my device, my device is charging.
where is the problem?
please help

Well ... seems that the charger is broken. Maybe try another one . Also make sure to have the right sockets 110 V / 220 V current whatever country you`re in and that you have the right charger for it.

my charger charge galaxy s i9000 well, but dont charge my gio.

Is it the original charger from Gio ? It should output 5V ~ 0,7A

i had the same problem and was told by buy another charger
bought another one(original) and it didn't work
so i returned it and bought an universal charger 5v 1A ( a usb universal charger i think it was called) and problem solved
it shouldn't damage your battery because i think our gio has a voltage/amperage regulator(but don't quote me on that, i'm not 100% sure)

Thanks alot my friends i think your answer is true i try it :fingers-crossed:

Here another Gio, which can only be charged with a USB cable. Wall charger doesn't work, however, sometimes a whole night connected to a wall charger will actually charge the Gio... very strange. Tried several wall chargers, they are not the problem.
What's is causing this? Is it software (ROM) related or a hardware failure?

Im sure its hardware prob! Custom ROM can never do that or it could be that charger is faulty

Every problem is different clearly.
Considder verifying dust in the gio connector.It picks up dust...bad contact and no more charging.
Clean it and it works for months again
Enthusiastic Gio User
Very glad with the work done
But sometimes a pusher for results( nothing bad intended)

We've found a workaround.
Shutdown the Gio and remove the battery. Plug in the wall AC charger in the Gio. Put back the battery and it will be charged by the wall AC charger.

[Q] I9100 charger and I9000 changer

Hi there,
Is the charger for the i9100 the same as the i9000? I have a i9000 charger lying around in work that might suffice as a back up charger.
Before some suggests it: I also have the USB cable for charging as well in case anyone boycotts this thread. ;P
Regards.
Anyone? I know that some peeps have both 'phone.
I think you can charge with anything as long as its comes with micro usb port
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
I have both and yes the cable & wall charger are the same in my eyes.
I saw some 1500mA car chargers in various shops. Isn't such a high current harmful for the battery?

What kernel and Rom u using??
Sent from my HTC One X using Tapatalk 2
sounds like your phone thinks its charging from a usb and not ac when its charging from the mains open settings > power
under battery status it will say either not charging, charging (usb) or charging (AC).
if its saying usb then there is something wrong with the cable thats stopping it from showing s an AC adapter.

Have you tried a different adapter?
The cables could be fine, but your adapter/plug is defected.
Also, do as treebill said. Try checking in which mode (USB/AC/Not charging) your phone is recognizing as being charged.

I have exactly the same problem, I'm using official usb cable and adapter. I had tried other cables and adapters but same thing. My One X is not unlocked or rooted, and I'm with the last official rom 2.17.401.2 but it was happened and with previous rom 1.27.401.11. Even with switch off phone charging is very slow I try to restore my phone but nothing at all. Sometimes it's charge like it should but most of the time it's slow. Any suggestions or I have to go straight to repair center?

Ok.
Li ion batteries take 3-4 hours to charge. If its taking longer, there is huge current draw from the phone. Or, as you say, "no".
help me...
Are you REALLY sure your chargers aren't messed up?
I f**ed up the charger given with my One X(details below) and after that, my charger would only give me usb power instead of ac. I've been using this charger bundled with my Samsung P2 mp3 player that I got 4 years back.
We had gone on a trip where the room's fan rotation knob was missing, so the only thing I saw fit to change fan speed was fitting that tiny pin from the fan regulator in my AC Adapters usb port, which messed it up. Retarded I know, story of my life... -_-
Hey there, I faced the same problem. Having a blackberry Bold3, I tried recharging my OneX with the charger that came with it. BB charger charges my OneX WAY FASTER than the HTC charger that came with the phone. (1hour max for full charge) And battery holds an entire day too.
no one??
If you haven't rooted nor unlocked, and your phone was charging perfectly before, then I don't think it's a software issue.
It's either your charger or cable. If you have tried a different charger/cable that works well with other phones, then I guess you need to have your phone looked at.
Good luck

This is a relief. Mine took 3 hours to charge from 0 to 100 , I thought that there's something with it.

[Q] Charging as USB even though I'm using the wall original wall charger

Hi!
I bought my GNII a week ago and phone is awesome!
The only problem is it takes soooooooooo long to charge. I didn't assume that something was wrong yet since it is new. After charging for the third time and it's still slow, I searched for answers but came back empty. So I'm here hoping somebody could help at least so that I could do everything on my end before contacting my provider.
Here are some information:
1. Charger that I am using is the stock charger that came along with the phone. USB cable and Original Charger.
2. Phone is not rooted.
3. When I plug it using the wall charger (USB cable + Original Charger) it is being detected as USB instead of AC.
Hope somebody could help.
Thanks!

No there aren't , the problem is with the defective 4 pin usb cable bundeld with few of our sets actually we need to have 5 pin cables for proper charging , had exactly the same problem with my s3 puechased a HTC usb cable after that my problem was gone for good.

Yep the one packed with it is usb3 which is a bit faster. The other one is usb2 which is a bit slower.

Hi! Some breakthrough. I charged my phone at the office using the wall charger and plugging it to a UPS and VIOLA!! It charged as AC!! Could you (or anybody) know why?
Root, flash a custom kernel which supports fast usb charging

will it charge like AC after flashing? Rooting it would be my last option since I just discovered it could charge as AC without rooting. The only problem is why it charges as USB on wall charger but AC on a UPS.

That kernel will charge at 900mA by default over a normal usb connection.
I flashed it rather that the sock kernel just for that reason, plus for me it gives improved battery life etc over the stock kernel. You can overclock also but I have no desire to do that with the Note 2 as its pleanty fast enough already.
Does anyone know off a kernel that actually has usb fast charging enabled in it ?

[Q] Very slow charging. why??

When i connect my galaxy note 2 to stock charger it shows that in my battery stats it's charging as USB not AC.
Well what's supposed to be the problem. is my charger broken or the usb port in my phone is damaged??
Are you using the stock charger with the stock USB cable? My note 2 was charging really slow until I realized that the USB extension cable I was using wasn't delivering enough juice.

Do you have another 2A charger/USB cable that you can test from? I use an HP Touchpad charger + cable because its 2A and has a long cable.
I just happen to experience the same thing. I have had my Note II for a couple of weeks now and it have always charged from almost empty to full in less than 2,5 hours. Today however, it's going really slow. I do not know why. I've tried everything I can think of. I juse only the stock charger. Also tried the Ipad charger - no luck. This seem to be a quite common problem.
Hmm, just as I thought, more and more of this should be coming in upcoming days. I lost two good night's sleep because of this. Anyway, this is what I have done and you guys SHOULD do.

first time ever i have faced this issue (slow charging) couple of days back. it was dropped to almost 1%/3min
I have simply reboot to recovery and wiped cache
Now it come back to normal 40%/hr.

I have discovered that the stock charging usb-cable only has 4 pins in the micro-usb end. It looks like on is missing, from the standard five-pins. Can anyone check your stock usbs and see if there are four or five pins, and report back? Thanks!

I've mentioned it on my topic, I'm sure you haven't read it. Look above.
Anyway, mine has 4 pins.

My cable got only 4 pins. The second from the right is missing if you have the USB logo up.

I found a huge variance in charging rates based on a combination of chargers and cables. Goes to show that the cable makes a huge difference. Here's my findings:
** Stock Charger (2A):
w/Stock Cable (4-pin) - 1698
w/Cable from another phone (5-pin) - 1698
w/Cable from battery pack (5-pin)- 1698
w/generic eBay cable (4-pin)- 100! - It didn't charge at all, even with screen off.
** iPhone Charger (1A):
w/Stock Cable (4-pin) - 1300
w/Cable from another phone (5-pin) - 1100
w/Cable from battery pack (5-pin) - 1300
w/generic eBay cable (4-pin) - 100!
** Car Charger (1A):
w/another generic eBay cable - 490

Portable Charger Compatibility issue

So my friend has a portable charger and since i dont have one (yet) i decided to borrow from him. But the minute i plugged the cable and switched ON the charger, my phone (OOAK V28, REV3 kernel) didn't charge at all even if i put in the 2.1A slot
