I've noticed that my N6 doesn't charge. The USB cable and charger are fine I tested with my N5.
My phone doesn't charge, not even when it's off. I put it in bootloader mode and the PC recognizes it through the 'fastboot devices' command but it doesn't charge. If I move the cable a bit it says 'Battery Low (Charging)', it also can change to 'Batteries OK' or 'Battery OK (charging)'.
If I go to recovery it says isn't charging, I don't see the '+' next to the battery percentage.
Also before I turned the phone off I connected my USB through an USB adapter and the phone recognized the USB.
It also turns off sometimes when I turn it on.
What could be causing this? Any suggestions? Please help.
If your N6 doesn't charge it. will turn of when the battery is low.
It could be the charger, usb connector or cable.
Because the N6 has a Qi charge module, you could try wireless charging to check if the charge circuit is still working.
Start with cleaning the usb connector of the phone (dust, dirty etc...) ; take a deep breath...

I have a major problem with my Tilt, when it is off and I plug it in, the phone will not charge and instead just boots up into Windows Mobile. While turned on, the phone will not charge; nothing happens when I plug in the USB cable.
The USB connector *looks* OK, no obviously bent pins or damage compared side by side to other HTC phones, but I'm not an expert with a microscope.
Is this a lost cause or are there things I can try to get the device to charge?
i'm not sure my observations will help you but i noticed the following behavior ONCE...i was too lazy to re-test and confirm my theory, but here goes:
1. if the phone was improperly shut down, the phone would turn on and start booting as soon as i would plug in my wall charger (NON HTC, its a generic Motorola charger). in my case, my device charges fine once the boot up has cleared the boot splash screen.
2. using the usb cable plugged into my pc, the phone would NOT turn on when i would plug in the usb cable. i MIGHT have shut down the phone properly prior to trying this but my memory isn't keeping up with me right now
i guess what i'm trying to say is that i THINK the device is built to turn on the moment a charging source is available, that is if it was improperly shut down.
Thanks for that tip...my Tilt is now plugged in via USB and will charge whether or not it is on or off. I still have to try it with the regular AC adapter, but at least it's not dead!
Edit: Everything is good to go Thx for the tip
Hello there,
Its a but weird but hey this is something very normal for the 2x I think. When I plug in the phone to the pc, this will identify the phone and all that, but it will not charge. I have tried different USB slot and other PCs but nothing happens. On Power the phone will charge as normal. I have also down a calibration of the battery..
Anyone?
I just had the same thing happen to me. I'm glad I read about your wall charger suggestion . Then I read about another person who pulled their battery out and long pressed the power button to clear any risidual charge, I did that and when I turned back on it had gone from 1% to 5%. This was after useing 'battery calibrator' which deletes that file. I also have battery monitor widget and wonder if it conflicts, I think I entered a random number when it asked me the wall chargers ampage. Who knows it charges from computer again. My mother had a problem similar on her nokia, she let the charge get to low and they had to 'shock' the battery into life.
- actually if you have the mode where the screen stays on then the phone might just consume all the power.
-nope, seems wall charger is super fast and computer is slow, maybe usb just doesnt have as many amps
check your usb cable, cheap china cable have problem with charging
I got another cable, GOLD!, and did more testing, its a slow charge on computer and charge goes down when playing counter-strike. Charge goes up on wall socket when playing CS. The charger says it puts out 1A and im sure that more than what my laptop USB puts out, maybe I'll try it with my desktop.. debug mode did nothing to change the effects.
I had Recently received my desktop pc from the repair shop and i plugged it in and wanted to transfer some files..
When i did so my phone's display went off!
I immediately unplugged my phone from the computer and it appeared to be working fine. Afterwards i plugged my phone into the wall charger but there was no light and it did not charge! But once i switched off the phone with the charger plugged in the light next to the port turned on! But it did not charge! I kept it like this for an hour or so but it did not charge! But if i unplug it and put it back in when it is off... It switches on but does not charge! Right now the battery is completely drained and is not accepting any charge..
I believe this is because of some current overload in the front ports of the desktop. I tried to plug in my PSP to it through the same ports and it too shut down but is still functioning...
I am running Ultimate ICS 1.0
If you dare to you could try supplying the voltage directly to the battery contacts.
Grab an old USB Cable - get rid of the plug that doesn't fit in your charger and stuff the red (+) and black (-) wire in between the battery and the connector.
DO IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
So i am having this problem, wonder if anyone else is also. I reported it to samsung.
The problem is when using a car charge my phone will say charging like normal. BUT then it will says "powering connected usb device".
It will say this the whole time it is charging.
Its a 5v 2amp charger i am using a micro usb cable with the included usb c adapter.
I use the this same charger for my s7 edge without problems.
Now the kicker here. Once i unplug the note 7 from the charger it will keep to saying "powering connected usb device"
The battery icon will flip between the power out icon and normal battery.
The first time it did i had to reboot the phone so it would stop.
The next time it went away after a few minutes.
I havent try using a usb c cable, but will later today.
Just wondering if anyone else is having this problem. Its probably OS related or have something to do with the adapters.
Just wondering if anyone else has this problem
The included micro-usb-to-usbc adapter seems to inhibit the charging speed. I used the adapter with an official Samsung Micro USB cable that came with my Note 5 and plugged it into a Samsung fast charger and the charging takes forever... Maybe you're experiencing a similar symptom?

Its possible. Today i drove for about 20mins and i didnt have this problem. It charged but only went up 3% more. I should of gotten at lest 5-6% with that charger (amount i would of gotten with my s7 edge, same charger in cable)
I will do a test today with the usb c cbale plug right into the usb adapter. I only have the one for the time being
Well the problem is still here.
My wife gotnher phone and the same thing.
She needed to charger her phone.
Plug it up and it says chaning connected usb device. Just stays on the screen for a while then goes away.
Now we got out the car and turn the car off.
Then phone lit up and says powering conntect usb device. Then my rasio started to boot up and ended up in a boot loop as long as the phone was connected.
So thephone was trying to power my car through the usb charger.
This is something samsung should fix asap. There should be an option to turn this off.
Ill have another chat with samsung
When I plug my note 5 to a USB charger, it says charging, but the battery is not. It's actually dropping. BUT when it's put on a wireless charger, it charging fine. It's not the USB plug/ac adapter.
because a usb doesnt have enough power to char11ge it while youre using it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111
