Info: Charging paused. Voltage too high
Couple of days back updated My GS Note to official ICS 4.03. Today morning, suddenly after removing charger, facing a problem. every few seconds it beep with message " Info: Charging paused. Voltage too high".
When I reconnect charger or USB, there is no issue at all. But after removing cable, the problem continues.
Not sure any other GS note user are facing same problem or not?
Shut down your phone and let it cool down may help

Shut down your phone remove the battery for some time (around half an hour). Also check there is no dirt in battery compartment or inside the charging port.
Flash any stock firmware if you are on any custom rom and take it to the nearest service center
There might be temporary fixes but permanent fixture would be to replace the usb docking port which need to be replaced...
hi bro,
happen to me n my friend as well. what i did is, clean the usb port. using a piece of paper, wipe clean the in between the connector.. also if the hair dryer is available, blow dry the port..
This happened to me earlier and it keeps bugging the hell out of me, then I remembered that earlier this morning I used my Pantech charging cradle before plugging it directly to the mini usb port and it started bugging me with the charging error....tried blowing on the port,using different chargers but when I tried using the pantech charging dock it stopped and charged normally.I guess this will have to do as of now
My friend had that happen to him because of dirty contacts on the phone/USB cable. Just blow it out good, or use a swab with alcohol to clean it.

I had this problem. There was a bit of pocket lint causing the issue. A swab with alcohol will do, but don't blow in there. Your breath has a lot of moisture in it. Those pins are sensitive and moisture can cause the "phantom car mode" issue.
Today I got this issue..
so I try to cleaning USB contact.
Hope this will help.
Thanks a lot..
isn't this because of some custom kernel that implemented some voltage changes?

Cleaning USB port worked
I removed the battery and used a little rubbing alcohol on a tiny brush (used to clean between teeth, a pickster). It rebooted and worked for a few minutes then the message came back.
Unfortunately I have seen this far too many times with Samsung phones. I once had a Skyrocket that had this issue, and then it wouldn't be recognized when plugged into the computer. Cleaned the port, used different cables, changed the rom etc. No dice.
My work phone (galaxy s2) started this yesterday. Then my Note was acting erratically while charged.
My best advise is to clean the port, and get another charger immediately. New cable/wall plug. My note is charging fine at home just not with the car charger (brand new Rocket fish). I'm lucky I caught it in time. Now my S2 is damaged.
I have also heard that the stock samsung chargers has a chip that detects when the phone is charged. Therefore using 3rd party chargers could therectically damage the phone.
Although I truely hate Apple phones, I think the 30 pin connector is far superior to micro USB. Too many problems.

It was the same for almost 3 weeks for me.. I bought "Charger Port Micro USB Connector Mic Flex Cable for Samsung Galaxy Note N7000" from ebay. This morning i received it. I replaced the part. Now it is perfect. Replacement this part is very easy. I bought it for 9 dolars.
This error is a hardware fault. So you have to replace the part. May be cleaning it solves the problem but it would be a temporary solution.
So you replaced the charging port on the note. It's good to know that is an option.
The cleaning of the USB port and then a full charge cycle using the Samsung original wall charger has fixed it for me. I have not had the error since.

hey
I'm having the same issue it looks like it really is the usb connector.
Anyway I don't have any warranty left so I'd like to give this a shot. Has this new charging port lasted? I hope it lasts longer than the one I got in my Note
I tried different batteries, different cables and different chargers, but get no response whatsoever, even when using a USBjig. Can't get into recovery or download mode. ODIN doesn't find it.
I've been having problems with the microUSB port for a while (phantom USB), in which the phone thinks a charger / car dock is connected (whilst this is not the case). Not sure if they are related, though.
I was running RocketRom V1 (which ran great) when my note suddenly turned off and didn't respond to anything.
Two days later, whilst my supposedly dead note was connected to my PC, my note booted when I booted my pc (very, very odd). I immediately updated my rom to RocketRom v2. My note ran fine for a couple of hours. Then, again, it turned off and hasn't responded to anything since.
What options do I have left to fix my Note? Thanks!
Sounds like dodgy usb connector and therefor not charging properly, I'd get it looked at under warranty or there are a couple of threads here on how to replace the usb port yourself.

Thanks for the response, Spydertracks. I've send the phone to samsung for repairs, but my warranty was refused thanks to physical impact damage. I fail to see how this relates to my N7000's issues, especially since I haven't dropped my note and the problems started when it was lying on the table.
They didn't explain which part of the phone was damaged, by they did send me a picture of the insides of my phone. It shows a small square item (a sticker, perhaps), with 16 small x's on it. Is this a warranty sticker or something?
for now you can use an external battery charger and boot up your note,
also if its the USB connector in the phone, loads are available on selling websites that come with tool kit to do it yourself. videos on youtube as well.,

Thanks for the reply. I have ordered a USB module and will try to fix it myself. However, even with a fully charged battery my note won't boot. It does charge (and the battery heats up) in my Note, but it just won't boot or give any life signal (like a "charging" screen, vibration, whatsoever).

I would try cleaning the usb port with pure alcohol and a cotton bud. usually when it states a charging when not and switching between driving mode and not it points to dirty connectors. Battery is obviously not the issue as he's tried different ones. Only other thing would be to charge the battery on an external battery, that would show if the usb port has failed.

Thanks for the advice. Tried cleaning the port with alcohol and a cotton bud, didn't work. However, I did notice a high pitched sound coming from the charger when my N7000 was attached. This sound could not be heard when charging any other device (with that same charger), which might indicate a short-cirquit in the USB connector port in my Note. The phone (and the battery) do heat up slightly when the charger is connected, though.
I have ordered a UBS module, which will arrive in 2 weeks. I'll let you know if it worked.

remove the battery and check the USB port for contamination.. try blowing air or clean it gently with cloth (may be dipped in pure alcohol). let it dry. reinsert the battery and try again

Get a tight micro usb connector and connect and disconnect it to the note usb port. It should clean the port out. I had the same problem with my note.
I have tried 2 different micro usb connector but didn't help. I think there might be some problem in the internal circuit.

You can easily replace the charger board if you think that's the issue...its about 35 dollars and very easy to install

This problem happened to me about 3 days ago. My screen is constantly turning on, if i'm not charging it. And the icon is flapping between charging and not charging, even i have unplugged the cable.
I am using stock rom and saw a new firmware upgrade last night, did it, and look like it has resolved the problem (last night), however, happened again, this morning.
I want to know if this is a "battery" related problem or "hardware"?
hope someone can help
thanks guys

Does charging cut in and out when you wiggle the charger?
Does the issue happen when on battery alone? Screen flicker?

if the conditions cited by AndroidSlave occur then you just have to calibrate the battery with some complete charge cycle

I ve already advise a few guys on this , happening to lots of SGN now, (getting old lol) use a thin flat screw driver and gently lift the middle small plate at the charging port up (if u look closely its touching the bottom part of the port) then use small brush n alcohol n clean the port. Should take care of yr problem. Cheers

Can charges but not storing
SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE, could be able to charges, battery bar moving up like normals, but battery decrease and seems not storing even thought the battery bar is moving like normal, tested while off the phone, same cant store battery, try to clean the micro-usb with brush, still same, is that a mainboard problem ?tried search the forums, but no luck~ any help ??
First of all, i'm sorry if any other thread are already open. I've searched but didn't find nothig...
So, what about my problem is
Started from nowhere 2 nights ago... My battery can't reach 100%. wednesday night, stoped at 87% but still show charging. Last night, stoped at 93% and the same..still charging And all of that, happend after almost 9hours of charging. So i m sure it's not related about charging time.
If yours answers does need for a few more details, i'm completly stock, 4.3 version
And another detail about i think it's not a simple coincidence, that issue described above, starded after a looooong conversation on facebook. Phone was veeerry hot and problems started :victory:
Any sugestion will be appreciated :good:
P.S out of warranty
One thing i learned about Samsung:
* The wall adapters suck.
* The cables suck.
My experiences the same, and a 3amp HP Touchpad charger sends it to 100%.
Now, my advice, in this particular order:
* Clean the usb port on the smartphone (needle, carefully!)
* Replace USB cable
* Replace USB cable AND wall adapter.
Thx. Today i'm going to buy another usb cable and charger.

Hey, i had the same problem but a lot worse, then i bought this new monster cable, and all my problems are solved, before i bought the monster cable i bought like 3 regular cables but they don't work.
Hi All
I have this OCD that I'm going to damage the Micro USB port when inserting or removing the cable. Is the port durable? And should I just not worry about it?
In note 4, it will get loose and you need you find position that charges the phone.
Well using the app "phone info" on my rooted note 4 I can tell you I have connected a usb lead 712 times in the last year and I have no looseness or connection issues whatsoever.
No the most scientific of responses I know, but hopefully it will give you an idea.

I don't know I've abused the port a lot, plugging in at night, moving it around quite carelessly too, then I also flooded it with water once accidentally, after a few hours of weirdness it still works great, not loose or anything

My phone has been plugged in charging many a time in our living room and my Mrs has caught the charger lead with her foot and launched the phone across the room! Lol never had any adverse effects on the micro usb connection.

If you've got a dodgy connection, replace the lead. They're cheap (much cheaper than trying to replace the socket)
My experience is that most micro USB leads are good for a couple of hundred connections or so.
Thanks to everyone who has replied. I really appreciate it soo much. I now will charge my phone worry free.
I charge wireless to save a little wear and tear on mine.
Still have connected 1108 times and 707 for spen. Spen is a little loose.

It is much better than Mini-USB standard, which usually get broken in mid-long use.
My Micro-USB port is working very fine in my Note 4. Charged around 800 times.
almost 2000 count on my phone
and still work fine
800 times, no problem.
FYI, the MicroUSB standard states a design lifetime of 10000 cycles. The weakest parts are on the cable side.

Yeah actually the cable that came with my note 4 is a bust. the rubber part near the micro usb plug started cracking this summer and then opened up a month later
Is it easy to replace the USB port ?
