Hi Guys,
Got a problem here. This will be my 2nd Note2 after sending it back to Samsung couple of months ago. It was charging this morning and tonight after a long day of work, I decided to play some game on it. Noticed that the battery is on 15% I decided to charge it. After 30mins I checked the status of the battery and to my amaze it was not charging! I tried 3 different cables, 2 different chargers, and none of them works. Tried my cables and chargers to a different phones and it does work. I connected my note 2 to my laptop, and it does not recognized it. Tried to charge it while it is turned off, I can see a battery icon, but it does not show the charging battery icon. It will disappear in a few seconds. Please see image below:

It's a rooted phone. Tried to clean the charging port. I even opened it without damaging the warranty sticker, and I can definitely say that there's no moist inside. But just to be sure, I blow it using a hair dryer with the temp off. But with no luck. I used to experienced this a few weeks ago where went back charging after a few minutes. But this time it's worst, it's been an hour and a half and still it is not charging. I can't do a full wipe yet since the battery got 9% left on it.
I know that if it will really not charge, to resolve it..it's either I send it back again to Samsung, replace the board myself (hope it works), or buy an external battery charger. Unless there's more that I can do to fix it.

I did but to my amazed after leaving it alone the whole night, It went back charging again. Yes I am glad that it's working again but I am worried it might happen again sooner or later. I have read some threads with the same issue and with the same outcome, I really want to know what's behind this.
So if its under warranty unroot and monitor

So about two weeks ago, I switched to iPhone because I'm giving my S3 to my dad. I haven't used it since then so I fully expected the battery to die. However, when I went to charge it today the LED at the top left isn't lighting on and I get this

Whenever I try to plug in the battery while it's connected with the USB, the red LED pops up for 3 seconds and then it goes away.
Any ideas guys? Please help me.

I did see it. But we don't have the same problem.
My phone won't even get to the boot sequence and I know it's not a brick of any kind because the phone was working fine before I switched the iP5. I left the phone in the glove compartment of my car for a week or so, is it possible that could have messed with it? The phone was inside of the box and everything so I can't imagine it got too hot.
Well did you try the suggestions there? Keeping the battery out for a while and then putting it in and trying to boot?

Yeah I did but still no dice.
couple of things
Try a different battery
Try a different charger
Sometimes extreme heat and cold (from a glove compartment) can ruin a battery or the phone itself. Extreme temps are hell on phones. It's probably a good idea to remove the batterty and keep it inside if phone is being stored. Also, some chargers to go bad...had it happen. Anyway, you might have tried these things already. Good luck!:good:
i have a glaaxy s2 epic 4g touch (d710) from virgin mobile
let me start by saying with virgin i have no insurance and cant afford a new phone
about a week or so ago my phone randomly turned off and wouldnt turn back on,
it wont even show that it is charging, just a black screen and the blue led light will flash on and off when plugged in, but wont charge
i tried to unbrick it, but when i put it in download mode it tells me it isnt charged enough to enter download mode. so i cant unbrick it.
i bought a new battery to see if it was the battery that was the issue, but still having the same problem.
is it possibly another hardware issue? or is it bricked?

Have you tried another charging cable and/or using another charger/device to top off the battery?
Like an external battery charger? They are like $2 on Amazon

i havent tried an external charging station, but ive tried a different cable and still the same issue
also another note, when i got the new battery today, it had some charge on it and my phone worked fine until it died and it couldnt charge and when it was dead it wouldnt show the battery charging indicator, just the blue flashing light
ebay $6
If the new battery worked until it ran down then it sounds like you might have a bad usb port on the phone. It happens. Here is a cheep workaround.
Buy a couple extra batteries too
Today my phone started to not charge while I had it plugged in and using it at the same time. A few weeks ago I also was getting a notification that said "use the charger the phone came with because this one isn't giving enough power" or some message like that when I always use the original htc charger. My phone is actually losing battery while I have it plugged in now. This is annoying! I'm unrooted and stock.
This message is popping up Btw.

Have you tried a factory reset? If that doesn't work, I bet firewater combined with a Rom and kernel would...our developers kick ass.

Most times I have had this it was charger and/or cable related. I have had an HTC cable that does this and also bad cables. The problem is you are stuck in USB charge mode instead of ac. First method of troubleshooting is another charger and cable.

Ok well, I used a different charger but I think it's a weak one because it took forever to charge and the battery seems to be draining rather quickly.. I used to get almost 5 hours on screen time. About 20 perfect drain every hour. I just unplugged it 30 mins ago and it's already down to 85 percent and I've barely used it. Wtf?
Hi
My cell battery is draining very fast. After full charge its not holding more than 6 hr.
Attached images. It says most battery is taken by system or Android don't know why.

I am in the same boat. I pretty much have disabled everything I can think of and have started carrying around a battery pack because of this. I pretty much have to charge my phone 2-3 times a day. I use my phone primarily for texting and listening to audiobooks. every once in a while I will watch some youtube but not that much.
That's why I had to give mine up for the Nexus 6p the battery life was getting ridiculous even with the fast charging barely helped the situation.
Weird. My battery lasts most of the day with moderate to heavy use. I disabled almost everything that I could in application manager.

that is more worrisome, phone is getting heated and sometime fast charging does not work, should I do factory reset and give another try. Just do not want to rely on factory reset every time I have issue.

For me the fast charging worked for about a week, and then the default samsung cable stopped charging quickly. Once I changed the cable the actual charger worked no problem but still it is annoying how fast this battery drains.

same here! I really regret buying this phone, seems impossible to get root on it, no custom rom, and the battery drains crazy! when I walk my dog & just put the phone in my pocket it's getting so damn hot without even use it!!
I got the OTA update for my Galaxy Tab S 10.5 to Android 6.0.1. Ever since installing it I've been having USB issues from not charging and not being detected in Windows 10. Whenever I plug an USB cable it shows the battery icon with a red X, no matter what cable or charger I use. It also does this in Windows. I installed the Samsung drivers and neither Odin or Kies can detect it. Device Manger doesn't show any unknown device or the tablet. The only way I can charge it now is to turn it off and leave it overnight. This gets maybe 6-8% charge. I've also tried factory reset, but same issue. Is this tablet pretty much done for now?
In the Developer Options menu, tick 'USB Debugging'
If you have not been able to charge to 100% even though you have tried a number of cables and chargers then it looks like you battery has gone bad.
A battery can just die just by going to low, it might have been weak and this was the straw that broke it`s back, I found my T800 battery dead the other week it would not turn on, a bad app had drained it overnight, luckily i charged to 100% and it seems to be fine.
You can get replacement battery`s on eBay for like $10 and tool kits for like $4 and there are lots of youtube video`s on how to replace the battery it looks easy.
I already have my replacement battery and tool kit ready for when my battery goes bad as they all do eventually and i love my 10.5" too much for a dead battery to stop me using it for long.
Here`s my Kit, I have posted this photo a few times.

Have you tried a completely different computer? I have had issues frequently in the past with this device but a different computer always recognized it.
On another note, that red X is normal.

I tried the methods above minus opening it. I left it plugged into my PC for half a week and came back to it. Randomly decided to start working as if none of this ever happened. When I turned it back on it was still stuck at 34%, but it now showed a charging icon instead of a red X. I've been using it on all different chargers so far and no issues.
