Hi, I'm facing a bit of a weird thing. Sometimes I leave my phone off charging during the night with an Anker 4 port charger and an Anker high quality cable with micro USB to USB C adapter (56kohm resistor included, works flawlessly) and, when I wake up the morning after the phone is just displaying a black screen. If I press any button it shows 100% charge and than the screen turns completly off. Does anyone has this issue?

HI all,
C6903 would previously charge using an official Sony dock cord. Yesterday, however, the phone started making the 'phone flat' beepjng noise (it was close to flat), so plugged into the dock to charge. The beeping continued every few seconds, the screen rotation started playing up (I do have a screen rotation lock that hasn't been a problem) and the phone won't fully charge (the charge symbol is there, just keeps dropping. The error message "the connected power source is not sufficient. The battery is draining faster than it is charging. Minimise device usage while charging" popped up. It does charge VERY slowly if the phone is off airplane mode and the screen is off (it charged approx 30% in 10 hours, this way).
No rogue apps, etc. I reset to factory settings and the problem is still there. Phone charges fine using standard micro-usb.
Here in the NL, the carrier (KPN) send your phone away for minimum 2 weeks (& will not give you a replacement), and they will likely just test with the standard USB charger, which is fine.
Anyone experienced this & any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Adam
sounds like the cable is faulty, probably only one way to find out if you know someone with a dock - or just send the dock back to were you purchased it declaring it faulty
I've had similar issues, I solved it by rebooting the phone and plugging it in using sony usb charger until the charge is over 30%, after I got mine to 30% using usb, it then was able to charge using the dock.
you could check the dock with a multimeter, but there's not really much to the dock itself, so unless it's a broken wire, the problem is with the wall charger which the docks plugged into or the phone
Thanks all. I will check if it is the dock/cable or the power plug when my wife gets home - she also has the Z1.
Thanks again, will keep updated.

Yeah, sadly the cables don't last too long - went through 2 cables up until now and many more to come.
So i've had charging problems on and off for a while but last night was weird. So I charge my phone on my 2.0 car charger but the battery percent goes down, then i get home and attach it to a 1.2 wall charger that usually will charge it. I wake up and my phone is completely dead, i did check the icon and it was charging when i sat it down.. I then disconnect the charger and plug it back in, after about 10 seconds the screen changes to a charging icon on the black screen.
I can maybe understand an app draining my battery or maybe my car charger not putting out enough, but for it to not charge when it dies is strange.

Check what mAh it is pulling in when charging. Download "Ampere" from Play Store. It will also tell you how much mAh is draining when it is not plugged in.
I had the same problem when I had damaged (cheap) usb cable.
try to change it.
Also you might have dust in your phone port. try to clean it carefully. (youtube videos should help with ideas how to clean it)
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.

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
Hi There,
Need some help/advice,
My TP 32Gb, running 7.1.1 has had a problem recently with charging. It always charges when it is first switched on, if left the screen switches off and the charging light goes out and then no further charging happens. It wonder if I should leave the screen on all the time, this way it will continue to charge. If I place the tablet on the Touchstone, a clock face appears whilst it is charging - is there anyway that I can do this using a bog standard charging cable?
Many thanks.
It charges on the touchstone, but not via direct cable to the HP barrel charger?
Are you using the same barrel charger? or two different ones?

I normally turn off my device at night and plug it in to charge. When I woke up in the night I noticed the green 100% charger circle was lit up and it would go away, then the red charging dot would reappear then turn off after a few seconds then the 100% charged circle would come back, and this would cycle over and over again all night long. I assume this would ultimate eventually screw up the battery from constantly cycling like this? The charger I was using is an old (maybe Note s7 edge?) micro USB cable with one of the Note7 USB-C to Micro USB adapters and a Samsung Adaptive fast charger brick. I have tried a few different chargers/cords and it seems like this issue is a hit or miss with the power looping. My device is Unlocked currently on Verizon.
Has anyone else experienced this?
I used the Samsung Wireless Charging Pad (not fast charger) last night and I had no issue at all. Attached is a Dropbox link of a video I took of the issue.

Loose ends somewhere. I get that same problem wireless charging when it is not quite centered.
