Galaxy Gear Battery Not Charging - Samsung Galaxy Gear

Hey everyone. So upon switching from Apple to Android, I remembered the Galaxy Gear I had and was enthralled to try it out once again.
I tried using the cradle that it used to charge on - Quick screen flash but didn't charge.
Took it apart, pulled the battery, put it back together, threw it on the charger - Didn't charge.
Took the cradle apart (3rd party one as I got this from a friend), cleaned the contacts, put it back together - Still nothing.
Lost the cradle parts so I stripped a spare Samsung microUSB cord, pulled the battery out, put the 2 wires on the correct contacts of the chip that is attached to the battery, held them in place whilst having everything still plugged in - Still nothing.
Tried charging it with a wireless Samsung charging pad - Still nothing.
I'm left with all the components of the watch, everything except the cradle. I was wondering if there was a way to charge the battery separate from the watch, maybe putting the actual battery directly on the wireless charging pad and seeing if it will charge, or if I could take the screen portion with the opposing contacts that lead to the mobo and see if anything happens. No, don't have money for a newer one. No, don't have money for another battery/cradle. Any ideas? I really like this watch. It was working fine a month ago. It was rooted with nullrom but I restored it w/Odin and it worked like new. I left it uncharged for a week or so and when I wanted to use it again, wouldn't charge.

Same problem i left my gear for 2 weeks without charging and now it doesn't charge

I too have had this problem. What seems to work (worked for me) is to charge you watch from a desktop/laptop usb port.

I had this problem . Thinking about it, I hasn't used the watch in over a month. I bought a third party charger for about $5 from amazon and it charged it fine. All is well with the world again

Some problem here. The only thing that works its charging with my laptop.

I had a problem where the Tilt wouldn't charge until I deleted a waiting voicemail and a few unread emails. This was on a cooker ROM but check it out.
Hope that helps.
check the connector on the phone and see if it is broken I remember on my first two tilts it broke and I had to get new ones (warranty) and then the third ones broke but i used a small screwdriver and put the pieces together again.

Don't throw away your old battery because it's probably not to blame and you can then have a spare. How does it go if you attempt to charge via a USB cable connected to the PC? Will it still connect via Activesync over USB? Do you still get the orange light on the left of the phones earpiece when you're attempting to charge it? These are some steps that'll help to narrow down whats going on - let us know.
Had this problem using on of the original M2d (roms).
Now im running hyper dragon w/ m2d cab and all is well. Ive also experience this from a bent pin. (dont drink coffee for 1 day prior to attempting mini-usb surgery!)
umm.. when connected to the charger the orange light is on i bought a charger on ebay and it charges the batteries up so now i have two batteries using one as a spare when one is charging. the usb doesnt seem to be broken. a lil background i spilled water on it a lil while back but the phone works fine i have a feeling that that may have something to do with not being able to charge but why would the light switch over to orange then when i charge it. sorry if this seems really noooob
My Kaiser failed recently with not being able to charge. Most of the time it didn't charge but if you wiggled the connector around the charge light came on, then went off moments later as the connection/wire combo moved. I contacted Orange and they sent me a replacement. No problems since.
Most of the time my PDA goes into a charging cradle but when that fails I use the car charger/other mains lead.
As for being a Noob, we all have to start somewhere

My fix
Stuck my stylus in there by mistake and could only cvharge if i wrapped the cord around.
I recently bought a rechargable battery pack for my daughters wii, and it came with two usb cords (from target $26.99), and one day i plugged my tilt in and it charged no problem, been using this ever since (November to now).
Cnn.cn sells the usb part of the phone, Im just to afraid to solder the old one off and the new one on. Might try it one day!
I have the same problem currently. I plug in and the light comes on, but the battery does not charge. I'm waiting to borrow a friends battery so I can reflash to standard to send back to HTC!
I got my phone wet last week and I am having the exact same problem. I have a battery charger and 2 batteries so I am doing the same thing as you but it's getting a bit old.
I dont have a warrany so I'm hoping to find some good ideas here as to what (if anything) can be tried.
Update:
I decided to crack open the case tonight and take a look inside. Unfortunately I couldn't find any youtube video tutorials so I had to just go carefully and not force anything. I ended up only having to take apart the motherboard side (keyboard side). Once I had the phone completely apart, I taped a known good battery in and connected the charger. A physical inspection passed, no burns or shorts that I could see and no funny smells. After about 30 minutes of charge time, I unplugged the charger and the battery power had increased 10%. Sweet.
It turns out that the battery I had in the phone when it got wet may have been ruined though. That one will not charge even in a standalone battery charger. That's allot cheaper than the alternatives I was thinking about though. The Fuze was really calling my name today for a couple hours. Saving $500 though feels pretty good.

DealExtreme - charging cable - mini review

So, I bought one of those $4 charging cables from Deal Extreme. Not bad, actually. A couple of initial thoughts:
#1) Shipping: 3 weeks from order to delivery. This is not some next day, in-house job. This is coming from Hong-Kong or some area in China and it will take the full 3 weeks from the time you order to it arrives at your door.
#2) It works. Charges just fine, plugs into the existing wall adapter. No worries.
#3) It crashed my PC. I don't know if it was the pulling of it out or the putting of it in, but my PC crashed, and my PC never crashes.
#4) It does not have the top labeled like the stock one does. No little white arrow / triangle.
#5) Fits just like stock. Once you get the orientation correct (little black tabs guide you), it fits in solidly with no worries.
For four dollars, I am extremely pleased. I'll use it with the wall socket, and I'll use my stock one for delicate operations like PC-to-Phone transfers.
Thank's for the review... I was wondering when mine would get here, it had been about a week and a half already.
[[ UPDATE ]]
My charging cable has stopped working. I think.
I let the battery completely drain, and then I tried using the Deal Extreme cable plugged into the wall. The phone threw up an icon for bad connection to cable. I unplugged and replugged several times. Eventually I left it all night. It did NOT charge.
I don't know if it just can't do it when it was completely dead battery, or if the cable itself just is broken or if it is just poor quality. I will keep experimenting.
i have had the same problems with 6ft cables from yourcharger on ebay, none work with my pc to sync and when charging one killed my battery like it was wired wrong and the phone started freaking out and the home screen froze and i had to remove the battery, and the other it doesnt even show i have a cable connected to the phone
I've experienced bad battery/charger error with $4 dealextreme cable.
The cause is extremely thin conductors inside the cable.
The solution is simple. You have to make it shoter. Just cut 55cm off, and connect the rest.
As a result - 20cm cable, which can be made longer with any quality usb extender.
I recently purchased the car charger that came with a usb/charger for $6.50 the build quality for the car lighter charger is pretty outstanding it even has all the safety and mfg. Stamps on it. The usb charger on the other hand is quite shabby and it took me a few tries to get the pin to go in correctly. Also didn't have an arrow to differentiate which side was which so I had to take a bright marker n mark it. All in all for the price and the usual long delivery time it was well worth the 7$ now I don't have to log around my stock usb cord everywhere

[Q] Galaxy note not charging

Hi,
First off, I have a non rooted, stock Galaxy note. It's not modded in any way.
The problem started occurring yesterday, all was just fine before. Since then, it won't charge no matter what USB cable or charger I use.
1) Phone on
- I plug the charger to the phone : nothing. The phone doesn't register being connected to the OEM wall-charger.
- I connect the phone using the OEM USB cable to my computer (tryed 3 different computers) : Nothing.
I also tried another charger and several USB cables : no luck.
2) Phone off
- I plug the charger / I connect my phone to a computer using USB cable : the phone boot up and doesn't charge the battery.
Any thought ?
Thx in advance.
Try using some compressed air to clean out the usb port on the Galaxy Note. I had a similar issue with an iPhone once and there ended up being a piece of lint stuck on 1 of the contacts which made it unable to charge. Could be the case with your phone. Other than that contact Samsung and see what they can do for you.
Thx for the advice.
I'll try that out and call over Samsung.
Try factory reset if that could help..
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App
Update:
I tried a micro USB Host Cable (OTG Cable) and it's working fine : recognized and plugged in USB stick is working fine.
Also, I tried a factory reset after backuping my data. All went fine but sadly the problem is still there : no charging.
More update:
After two days, It started working again as if it never happened.
Still wondering what might have caused it
Might be the dust that settled on the battery pins and the contacts on your phone.. happens some times .. glad its back to work.. poor thing..

Happened to me too! It wouldn't charge until I turned off the phone. It worked after I cleaned the phone and usb cable's metal parts--sorry no correct jargon for this--with rubbing alcohol. Make sure there's no lint left from the cleaning.
Yup, had this. On charge with stock charger in the mains. Battery dropping fast, back (top) getting warm. I turned the screen off, left it for 5 mins. Looked again, it was 2% less!
Reboot fixed it.
There did not seem to be any rogue program using the CPU, but I now have a meter and a better logger to examine this if it occurs again. I assume the system got into a loop somewhere, although the phone was normally responsive.

Happening to my phone as well right now. I was worried that the battery is dying so I got a spare online. But it doesn't make sense that its charging and know that it is on one state and not the other.
I panicked so I replaced Rocket Rom with Cassie's. It's still doing this.
Have you guys checked if there is a weird smell from your battery? I thought that was something to look at but dont all batteries smell like that?
galaxy note is experiencing the same hardware problems as galaxy s2 phones. I am very pissed off at samsung. I bought a new galaxy note in dominican republic and after one month of delicate use the phone developed charging problems. Drive mode would start automatically or the phone would shut off all by itself and a battery removal reset would turn the phone on again. then finally, the phone would stay in charging mode even after the usb charge cable is removed. the phone would discharge quickly and then would not turn on. I finally gave the phone to repair dept at claro phone company. they would not fix it and are just showing me a middle finger. Now I guess, I would have to learn to change the charging port myself. After seeing galaxy s2 videos, I see many ribbon contacts would get corroded and need to be cleaned frequently. Many phones were just less than 2 months old and had so much corrosion on the contacts. this is bad design and I think the high current draw for a dual core phone of that huge screen size is causing all kinds of electrical corrosion on the contacts inside the phone. this sucks majorly as I loved the phone when I had it working fine. Now I think I have bought a problem with my saved cash. I will try to repair my own phone soon as I get it back from the repair dept.
My Galaxy Note is doing a similar thing. Not all the same symptoms, but a few similarities.
The other night, when the charger was plugged in the phone kept changing it's mind whether it was plugged in or not - probably every few seconds I was getting the chime it makes when you plug the phone in. I eventually managed to charge the phone by turning it off, removing the battery, replacing it, plugging the charger in, waiting for it to start charging, then turning it on.
Today my phone was trying to tell me it was charging when it wasn't even plugged in to anything!
As with the above post, my phone has been getting hot occasionally and the drive mode has started by itself a few times.
I've used three chargers and four cables.
I'll be taking it along to where I bought it from later on today.
Battery not charging
G Note Battery is not charging .. same problem as of 1st post.
Changed usb cables, chargers, thru PC, laptop, direct wall, cleaning etc
Every thing fails. one month old set ?
OMG, glad to know I'm not the only one. Bought a Galaxy Note from a brazilian network provider (VIVO) and after 1 week of usage I'm experiencing the same problems as you guys.
My phone will only charge when it is powered off and USB connection does not work anymore (even in download mode). Before the problem onset, I noticed some MTP connection and SD Card rescanning without connecting to the PC.
Did a factory reset and got no results. Downloaded Odin Mobile and flashed stock rom and the problem persists.
Has anyone found a fix or the cause for this?
Thanks!
Missing my old Galaxy S...
Strange! After a full night charge, now I can unplug and plug the battery and continue charging from where I stop without turning it off.
I can now get beeps when connecting to PC. It show MTP-Inicialization in the Note screen but I have no access to to Note partitions in Windoes Explorer.
Update: One more strange thing just happened now.
Went to college and left it charging. When I came back at night, tried to connect the Note to the PC and everything is working ok now.
What?!?! Now I'm confused. How can I send it to warranty now? I think I'll have to wait a couple more days.
issue as well
That is my 3rd galaxy note, first one screen cracked, second dont ask me why it was not modified at all but it was so sluggish and froxze all the time, my 3rd one it is rooted device and i have similar issue...I am thinking is it because i was charging it from my wife's htc one phone? I thought they would have the same pins...anyway it is doomed, i tried so many chargers and problem not solved
ok i can comfirm to everyone that i have fixed the problem by buying contact cleaner spray and sprayed inside the usb and beautiful all back to normal!
Nooo..
Have a charging problem as well :/ It detects the charging cable and shows the battery icon with the circle about to charge. But it just turns off before it starts charging, turns on shows the icon again, turns off, turns on, shows the battery icon and so on. I have tried with two different chargers. For me i looks like the voltage is too low? Maybe the battery needs a jumpstart? I'll just leave it in the charger and see what happens. Suggestions welcome
Edit: It's just two weeks old, damn it. Last night I used it untill the battery was empty. That is why I think the voltage is so low it doesnt accept charge.
Edit2: Fixed! Puh! I was right. Battery needed a higher mah to start the charging. Leaving the post as it is for future reference.
same problem here, however it charges from my laptop... how strange?

Galaxy Gear won't charge or turn on

I've seen several threads about this in the past month on other websites with no solutions so it seems to be a common issue.
The problem I'm having is that after not using my gear for a few days it refuses to charge or turn on. Not even a flicker when the charger is attached. Tried two different cords. Pins are clean and lined up. Left it plugged in overnight several times. Anyone else having or had this issue? Thanks
I don't have an answer for the problem at hand but I would like to stay updated with this thread. I'm looking into getting one very soon.

After trying a third cord for a Samsung blue tooth headset I finally got the gear to show it is charging and states 60% battery. Very strange. Tried turning it on and resetting it several times beforehand too so even though it had charge it was temporarily bricked. Hope this doesn't happen again
I had an similar experience the other day, the clock wouldn't start/charge or react to the power button. After i repeatedly tried to hold the powerbutton i finally rebooted. I suspect the gear was actually on, but that the system froze. Was about to do the surgery to remove the battery to check when it booted up
sent from my carrier pidgeon
I recently had this issue with one of my gear.this problem comes when you leave you watch on and battery drains and you don't charge for couple of weeks.I think it has something to do motherboard.only way to fix this is to replace battery which has juice in it.that's how I got mine working.I replaced the battery from my working watch and it started working and the dead battery I took out put in my other watch also started charging and working.this is a factory defect and Samsung should replace it free lifetime of watch instead of one year.

I found that if you take the Galaxy Gear apart and disconnect the power from the motherboard then plug back in and put the gear back together has got them to turn back on almost every time just give it a charge for a few minutes. This will fix it as long as the issue was not due to rooting to trying to put a custom ROM on the Gear. There is a few videos on YouTube that can help you take it apart.
- I work for Samsung experience shop and i have run into this issue often and just about every time this has fixed it.
- sorry for late response hope your back in the business with the Gear.
I've had this issue with wall chargers and did some reading online. Someone suggested to plug it into a computer/laptop usb port.
I plugged it into the laptop and walked away and guess what? It's charging. I tried many different chargers varying in ratings but nothing worked
Try leaving it plugged into the pc for a good while. After two days of trying various chargers, my gear is back up and running
Had this issue as well. I tried a series of taps to the power button followed by a hold and it eventually turned on and has been working fine since.
tap - hold
tap tap - hold
tap tap tap - hold
eventually it will come on, i cant remember how many taps it was when it finally reset.
Hi had this issue also spent 3 hours trying to figure it out as had just got gear out of its box at very first plugging charger in a quick image appeared on screen then off after that nothing. Eventually being as carefully as possible while gear was in charging dock still plugged in i opened the lid not once did i move gear off contacts but did give sight wiggle then it came to life appears to me its a docking problem of some sort. of course I DON'T RECOMMEND opening lid while charging but thought id pass on what i figured out do at your own risk, I hope this helps others with this issue
Thanx

Gear Watch Charging FIXED!
Thanks to this thread I am very happy!
Just bought a 2nd hand Gear Watch at auction. No idea about how they work and wondered why it wouldn't switch on or respond when charging. Just a black screen regardless of which charger or cable was connected. Read above about disconnecting the power from the motherboard so watched this youtube video on tear down ( won't let me post the full link but this is the video number... v=5WzGC0786U0 )
Luckily had a small 'star' toolset available. Pulled the watch apart... disconnected the power...reconnected the power...reassembled the watch... plugged into the charger and voila! Instantly showed up on the screen with an orange timer and then went black (held my breath) then came on with the battery symbol with 0% charge. Looking at it as I write...touched the screen and now has 10% charge (only been about 5 minutes).
Looking forward to playing with it when fully charged Thank you to the contributors to this thread. I thought I'd been ripped off...but now it seems I'm the one who has scored a working Gear Watch for £20 )))
mine started working on its own... strangely enough.
taking the advice from this thread, i looked into alternate ways to get my Galaxy Gear up and running. I tried cleaning the metal tabs that connect, tried opening the holster while it was plugged in, nothing. i didn't have a star kit to take it apart, so i left it on the charger while i could go find one. thing is, i completely forgot about it, since i've got the Gear 2 for my S5. i was cleaning around my desk and bumped into the gear which fell over and showed that it was at 100% charged capacity. beforehand, it was completely dead, despite the fact that i left it on the charger for a solid 24 hours and no response. maybe it just needed a little more time on there, who knows. but i powered it on, and it's fully functioning. the only drawback is that it needs a factory reset since it was without power for so long. i could connect it as an accessory to my S5, but i couldn't use it in the place of my Gear 2 as it's been rooted/running a _null ROM, and the Gear Manager software has been updated a few times. i'm going to factory reset it and pair it with my Note 3, and see if _null has an updated version of his ROM out there. but i figured i'd let someone know my experience in case it might help in some way.
Fixed it !

Just to share my experience, I left my gear about 2 months discharged, today I tried to charge it and nothing. I tried everything, clean, connect, disconnect etc, so, I pulled the watch apart and disconnected the power etc and everything is working fine now, charging as usual.
Here's what worked for me
I read on another site to try a piece of paper folded and put next to the on button so when the charging cradle is snapped closed it pushes it down. I just tried it and after many days of a dead gear watch....ta da! Success. Now it's on and charging. Take the paper out once it starts to reboot otherwise it will just cycle over and over. Hope this helps someone else. It's tricky to fit just right...i folded a tiny piece of post it note ...good luck. Penelope

I had the same problem: the gear is dead and not charging with a wall charger after leaving the gear for more than 1 month unused. I followed ph00ny's advice and tried to charge it via usb and it immediately started to charge. So before taking it apart I suggest try it out with usb charger.
Cheers
Stopped my gear update by shutting off my phone and now gear wont power on
I have been trying everything to get it to turn on.... (holding down the power button, tap and hold, charging with USB) nothing is working. Don't have a star driver to open it up, but may have to invest in one.
Anyone have the same issue? This is driving me crazy!

Bingooooooo, It's paradoxal All you have to do when the battery is left drained for a couple of days is to start charging on a Laptop or a desktop with a s4 usb cord for about 10 mn then you continue charge if you like with à wall charger

Oddly enough this is nothing but the truth. Funny enough. I lost my charger dock thingamajig recently and not one hour ago i started making my own out of a 2x4, and a few bits laying around. Was sad to see gear wouldnt charge or boot. tried different chargers and nothing. I read everything and saw this and didnt think to try as im only running two wires to charge my gear, as those with homemade chargers know. Plugged it into a laptop and boom. charging... please someone explain to me the theory behind this. and dont say the current as i even tried 500ma and 250ma chargers to no avail. how does a pc usb magically do it without data lines connected.... so confused..

[Q] New Gear 1 DOA twice - known issue?

Hi,
I bought a lime green (if it matters) Gear 1 from Amazon. First one did not charge, didn't turn on. Replacement came in today and same thing: won't charge, won't turn on.
I tried using a USB cable and plugging it into a computer, then my Chromebox, then a different wall wart. No dice. My second replacement will be here tomorrow and I am already dreading that the same thing will happen.
Is this a known issue?
Or is it a stock issue? I wonder if these boxes have been sitting around in a warehouse since 10/2013 and the batteries are all just beyond saving. I have a Gear S, but would love to have full Android on my wrist, and at $118, it was such a great deal.
I had the same issue as you. The way I fixed it was by plugging in the charger with the included wall adapter and putting the watch in without closing the lid. Then I used a small flat head screwdriver (The kind you use to fix glasses etc) and pressed the power button on the side of the watch while it was plugged into the charging unit. The watch then rebooted and voila it started charging. Been working fine since.
