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..

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?
Hello I have a note 5 - SM-N920C on stock M 6.0.1
about two months the phone stop fast charging and doesn't get recognised by the pc
the thing I tried :-
* try different USB cables ( 2 came with the phone - 2 new once )
* factory rest ( twice with wpie chashe )
* change the charger
I wanted to test other stock Roms but I can't get it recognised by odin .
and I have 2 note 5 all the cables work fine on the other one .
I seem to have same issue here.
I have the Note 5 from tmo(SM-N920T)
Baseband - N920TUVU2DPD1
Stock - 6.0.1
You have the exact same issues i've had. I also had issues where when i would have the phone plugged in ( to the wall adapter ) and rebooted it, it would think its a media device like a computer where it could share files and stuff... Also take like 5 hours to charge from 20%
Here I'll make this fix SUPER EASY..
1. Download Package Disabler PRO - I dont think it has to be the pro version but i bought it a long time ago
2. Search for 'power'
3. Disable 'com.sec.app.TransmitPowerService''
4. Reboot
I would add screenshots but as i dont have 10 posts im unable to post screenshots or links to the app in the playstore.
The wife's phone started this Saturday after updating. Also, hers beeps and has the charging blue wave as if she plugged the cable in. While actually charging, it disconnects and starts charging constantly.
The beep and blue wave is normal. The charging and no charging sounds like a faulty cord that's not making good connection
The beep and blue wave happens when she is not plugged in. Phone just sitting there not being charged or touched. We thought at first it was a bad cable, but we've tried several. Even does it on the wireless pad. Therefore I'm not sure it's the port. I think it's software related.
Have you tried safe mode?
Just a warning safe mode reset my wall paper and logged me out of some apps.

Did try safe mode and a factory reset. Sprint store I brought it to tried several cables and another factory reset with no luck so they ordered her a replacement. They weren't too interested in figuring it out. In fact, 3 other people came in with various issues and were just given the number to make an insurance claim without even looking at the phone.
I disabled that apk abd it detects all my fast chargers as fast ones. Where it didn't. If i re-enable it it stops workin
might be hardware issue, Try Wireless charger and see if it charges fast. if it charges good with wireless charger then you have to change you CHARGING PORT.

Had the same exact issue on a refurbished unit . Old note didn't do it, but had to exchange it due to adhesive glue coming up in upper left corner. I did multiple resets and finally went with the option of fresh install as not to import back my apps. It hasn't replicated our issue in the last few hours. I am hoping that takes care of it.
Did you by chance get a random gear VR screen prompting you to download the app and what not? I did and read others had the same issue and only way to get this to stop is to download it and then create an account, reboot and viola it solved it.
Stuff is crazy, love the phone but have had more issues with it over even El cheapo phones....

I got similar problem... now after 10 days I just can not go with this.
my youtube problem.
https://youtu.be/payi2IuJhdI
My NOTE 5 is thinking that is charging all the time. It drives me crazy.
With the USB cable it charges 1 time out of 20 and on a random day. I had to charge it via wireless. It wakes up all the time and can not use UBS.
Strange part is, that I can use my USB micro stick with my root and custom ROM. But that is it. No ODIN, no tranfer files.......
Did everything except change the USB port (it is on it's way). ( that will be my last resort)
ANY THOUGHTS.
I have a feeling that water damage was somewhere in there. (been driving with my bike on a rainy day and it looks like it got a little wet in my upper front pocket.
mine recognises fast charge very randomly. before it happened rarely but now it never shows fast charging with the original cable. the only thing that helped me was ordering a third party cable and using the original ac plug. let me know if that helps to any of you guys!
Ugh. N920a mine started this in March after having it maybe 3months. I called att and told them to send me a new one the other day. Unit arrived this morning. My opinion is its a bad USB port. This imho is the weakest link in Samsung devices-- this POS antiquated USB crap.
The thing would cycle CHARGING -- DISCONNECT, over and over. Wiggling the cord would affect the condition. Fast charge happened 1 out of 20 attempts.
I'll let you know how long the new unit lasts-- my most recent purchase is a wireless charger because, as stated this ***t is bound to happen again.
Unbelievable. My phone was totally fu**d. Than I sad I will fix it my self, so I bought the USB board and waited to get it. In the mean time I used it as normally, just wireless charging and that's it.
But after two weeks, the phone was getting a little better, not fixed, but due to custom ROM and a few tweaks, it did not turn on itself all the time.
But after I played quite a few games, (hitman) the phone did heat up all the time, and that my friends FIXed my problem. NOW the phone works as before the moister get to it.
I have my NOTE 5 back, yee.
SO when you have moister problem - play games.
Hey guys,
I had this exact problem - no more fast charging, no USB OTG or recognized by computer after
upgrade to Marshmallow. Tried multiple cords, different computers (Mac, and Windows), etc.
I sent it in for repair to Samsung and they 'fixed' it and are in the process of shipping it back
I put 'fix' in quotes because the repair tracking says it was solved, but I haven't received it back yet to
test. It should be coming in tomorrow.
Quick charge and USB issues have been fixed! IF you're still under warranty, I'd highly recommend sending it in.
Just seen message 'charge connected device' when connected to BMW charging socket.
It's pretty cool if it can for example charge my Bluetooth headphones

Yeah I saw a video mentioning this. You can use the included USB adapter to plug in a charging cable. I haven't tried myself. Guy mentioned something about it only balancing though, for example if you are trying to charge another phone, the Note 8 won't full charge the other device, they will just get some what equal.
Apparantly other older Samsung devices could do this too but you need Samsung's app to do it. It was called power sharing or something like that.
You got the message plugging it into your car? Weird, that doesn't make any sense. What would it be trying to charge on your car?
Used to charge my Gear Watch with my Note 4.... Note 8 also does it.
ok deffo can be useful on train as sometimes travelling to from work headphones die, so if i can juice up some amount that would be useful. Will try this asap
Hi,
I've been using my Redmi K20 Pro since November and I encountered a problem where my phone won't charge. I tried my backup charger and usb-c cable but it still didn't work. Once I restarted the phone it began charging again. Based on my testing once I unplug the charger I need to restart again to see the lightning icon charging indicator. I also noticed that the charging speed is very slow unlike how it used to. I am using xiaomi eu and I updated to the latest version thru the update app but still having the same result. Has anyone encountered this or have an idea on how to fix it? I see lots of similar issues with xiaomi phones but of different model on google but I can't find anything useful.
Thank you

Sounds like there's and issue with charging port and daughter board, if you've done a reinstall. Does the same thing happen when charging from a laptop or pc?

Ah okay, that's really strange, I was thinking it might be the port but if it works fine on USB then maybe not, and you've tried a completely different plug and cable aswell?
Do you use any battery charge limit apps?
If you are like me flashaholic, then sometimes with dirty flashing rom gets messed. Try flashing stock (fastboot rom) miui to teset everything to stock and then see if it charges normally. If not there could be hardware issue
With regards to the replies above..
I've only flashed once to Xiaomi EU. I've also tried a different usb-c cable
I notice that when I plug my phone to my laptop, it keeps getting disconnected and reconnected for any small movements of the cable
Sometimes I get fast charging when I perform a restart so it starts to charge
I don't use any battery apps or any cleaner apps

Sounds like the charging port has an issue, the fact if it is connecting disconnecting from movement of cable points to it I reckon
Hello,
Have you solved your problem? I have the same insue and I can't solve it, the last option was to flash the last oficial global rom (fastboot methdo), but it didn't solve it ...
Thank you.

So, I have this issue on my another phone poco f1 what I did was clean the charging port with some stick and cotton. Basically its a charging port issue, you have to clean the port or take a service to clean port completely or change port this issue will be solved
Mi 9T (Global) have the same issue, i check with USB Tester...
every restart the charging system is reset.
Before restart: 9-10W
After restart: 16-17W
Same adapter & Same cable & same time
Some times the phone not charge at all
Restart solve this issue
When i connect the phone to computer it's not work
Restart the phone when his connected to the computer solve the issue
Xiaomi fix you hardware & software !!!!
Hello
I have the same issue with my two phones MI 9 T PRO, never used USB C before, even 3.5mm jack, i have the error message on the notification and i cannot remove it: "Can't play audio through adapter. Use digital earphones or earphones with 3.5mm plug". when i plug my charger into my phone the fast charge is displayed but it won't charge, The only way to charge my phone is to reboot it and it's charge like there is no problem! but the error message is still on notification but charge with fast charge! I bought my phones march 2020, and the issue appeared since sept - oct. I have the latest update MIUI 12.0.3.
I facing same problem on my mi9tpro with global miui12 what's going on guys how to fix the problem?
Hey guys, I think I have the answer!
Its all about the MIUI optimization, you just have to go into developer options, search for MIUI optimization, turn it off, restart, turn it on and restart again. Everything should go well after this! I hope all of you end with this headache!

Hello team!
I was facing the same problem on a Redmi 3S Pro, and decided to come by and let u guys know my handling of this.
My phone has quiet some years of usage right now and its a bit beaten, but still runs great.
Out of nowhere it decided to not charge anymore, and I noticed it would charge with device off or after a plugged restart.
It decided to work again after i entered fast boot (unplugged) and exited fastboot back into system then plugging.
Not entirely sure this fixed it, but looks like it.
Some notes:
I was trying a couple things like trying to enter safe mode and combinations of plugged/unplugged restarts
I did not factory reset
I did not let it end the fastboot loading (force rebooted somewhere in the middle of loading fastboot)
To fastboot, power off the device, then press power button and down volume
If u dont know what u doing, DO NOT go sticking metals into your usb port to clean it, cause if it charges when off, this is NOT dirt problem. Be advised..
I was able to reproduce the issue (sadly) after playing with normal reboot/fastboot then reboot , but then i tried reproducing the fix:
Unplug and turn off device
Turn on to fastboot (down volume + power)
Now, first time, after entered fastboot screen, i rebooted and it did not work, then i tried again but i had to let it run a bit longer on fastboot screen then reboot for it to work
I know the fastboot performs some system checks while loading, but i don't have much time to keep digging this, maybe another day i'll come back with more info.
I'm guessing its system issue, not hardware (at least in my case).
But now, charging is working even after normal reboots for me, so i think i'm onto something =]
Hope this can be useful to someone.
Happy hacking!
Cheers
Hello everyone , I had the same issue and fixed it .
My solution was to change the usb-c port (daughter board). everything works as its supposed now.
I looked everywhere for software issues , flashed many different roms to no avail.
There was only one rom that tipped me that there was a problem on usb c port though, ita pixel experience rom, it showed a persistent notification that there was something plugged in the usbc when there was nothing there.
once I replaced my port (cost only 14$ for original with fast charging IC) ,and upon inspection of my replaced board under microscope , the last pin on the left in the usb C port was bent in a way that was impossible to see with a naked eye, now I bought a usb c port and soldered it back to my original daughter board and I keep it as spare one.
Hope this will save you your battery and your time.
(if you keep using like this and have to restart everytime for a charge , it will eventually fail , better replace it when you have time , than your phone going off when you most need it)
Hey Friends,
I have noticed this on my pixel 5 , it will make random charging sound when already plugged in to charger. I hear this charging sound randomly at no specific time interval. Tried to toggle the connector ends , still the same. Just wondering if i'm alone here ?
Thanks
I haven't noticed this (had the phone a little over a week) but I'll keep an ear out for it!
I have this almost every second on my 5 port Aukey charger (does not support PD).
Saw some comments on Reddit with similar issue (also on multiport charger).
On official charger it practically does not occur for me (had it once or twice when using the phone while charging, but it could be also from cable getting loose while moving).
There some posts on official Pixel support forums about similar issues too, though people rarely mentioned what charger they used.
Hi,
I observe this too sometimes. Happened to me twice with the provided charger from the box - it feels like it's more probable to happen if I have the phone already connected to the cable when the charger is plugged in. Also have observed this when charging from my PC under certain conditions (i.e. PC off, mobile plugged in to charge, then turning on PC, mobile goes crazy). Appears to me that the USB "connection" is reset every second but haven't investigated further.
I just bought new USB-C cable that was marked as USB Power Delivery compatible and so far the problem is gone even on the 5 port charger.
Seems like they removed code responsible for handling such edge cases.

Good to hear that , I haven't got the fix yet , I still hear random charging sound twice or thrice during every charge, hopefully it's a software fix.
