I have same issue. Change cable and it will solve this.

I think I have the same problem here. Today I placed my phone on a charger today and after some time I checked it out and it hadn't charged at all. I inserted the cable one more time and it succesfully started charging. I have to look more into the issue because as of now I am not that sure I have the same problem as you but i suspect it.
PS: appeared today, Pie, security patch as of 1st of Februar. It didnt happen before, I think it is some kind of software issue.

Same here. Tried different cables and charging blocks too.

It's your usb c port.
Had mine replaced. Now it's working again as intended.
There are quite a few complaints about this in the nokia community forum (sorry no link. Easy to look up though).

I just get my device back. They replace sub board and probably LCM module because I also tell them about that yelow bottom of LCD

Charging Porblem , Solved
It's May 4 2019 , today and I got April security patch update , and same problem got resolved . ?

So it is software issue, not hardware issue??

i started facing this issue after July update as far as i remember(surely after Jun)
phone starts charging as soon as i plug the cable but stops after ~10 seconds, even if it's on the flat surface and nothing is touched
i strongly feel this is a SW bug, thinking of doing a hard reset

Had this issue as well. I had to hit just the right spot for the phone to charge. On the lockscreen at the bottom there had to be this little "charging" message and only then it would charge.
Tried different cables, different outlets, different power adapters and nothing helped so for me it was more of a hardware issue.
Tried factory resetting and it still wouldn't charge.
Checked out the port itself if there was any dust in it or if anything was bent or damaged - nothing.
It really sucked cause you couldn't use your phone while it was charging. Even the slightest movement of the cable would interrupt the charging process.
Sooo I sent it to repair and I'm still waiting... It's been 4 weeks now. Next time I'll just repair it myself. But this is actually quite a deal-breaker for this phone. Everything else is totally fine and I was absolutely satisfied with its quality but not being able to charge it is a no-go.

I have TA-1055 version of this phone since it's release UK
and have never had this problem nor in fact, any other problems/ faults that appear on these forums.

guys i have this problem now. the phone when connected to charger doesn't shows as charging but if left untouched it's indeed getting charged but very slowly like 1% in 15 minutes. what should i do? I've already tried different chargers and cables but the problem is still there. it's happening since yesterday just after i updated my phone with Sep 2019 security patch. I've the Indian version ie TA 1046.

Had same issue. I send my unit to repair service. They changed bottom board with USB connector. Half year later my phone have no problem with charging but I have to send my unit again. This time screen in lower left side start to peel off the housing. Probably adhesive they used last time was not so good. Hope they will fix it quickly.

How much they charged for replacing the bottom board ?

I suffer the same issue in my Nokia 7 Plus
I noticed the problem some weeks ago, sometimes I connect the cable to the phone but the connection isn't good and charge doesn't start. I have made tests with different cables and chargers but doesn't matter, although some of them works better than the others it's a lottery to made a good connection. I believe it's a hardware problem (a hard reset didn't help), so I've sent the phone to the repair center, I hope they'll send it back soon.

[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..

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 Note battery strange behaviour... charging icon crazy!

Hi guys... my problem appear when i fully charge my note
I disconnect it from the charger...and start my nightmare.
The battery icon appears in a state of charging and idle loop! Draining the battery...
And power up the screen always discharging the phone.
Is like plug - unplug from charger... battery icon shows lighting no lighting...
Jb xxlsc installed... no problem since 3 weeks ago, until this issue...
Any clue?
I tried booting, formatting, etc...
Thanks in advance

have you tried with different charger?
I wonder why try another charger?
I've had the same problem a year ago. I was able to fix the problem by pushing in the pins inside the charging port. However this only buys time. I was able to fix the problem completely by purchasing charging port from eBay with the same revision 1.0 ( in my case ). I was able to install the part in less than 10 minutes and the problem is solved
Had the same problem few days back I just inserted a small pin inside the charging port and bent the pin inside the charging port very little don't know will it help but worked for me just be careful don't apply too much pressure as it may damage the pin

Jesus i want to cry when Note users have this problem!. Its an USB port problem, not chargers, not software. You need to replace the whole USB Board (which is attached at the bottom of the motherboard). If you want a temporal solution turn off your phone, remove your battery and then clean your usb port with a thin brush and alcohol and leave it for 30 min. Then put your battery and charge your phone. Turn on and then unplug your cable, it should work fine for some time. Its a problem with the 75% of the Galaxy Notes in the world. Ive changed my port 2 times in only one year! I dont know why samsung did not put a slinding usb protector like some galaxy devices... sorry my bad english and good luck!
when I changed my usb port, I bought 2 in case. 2 usb ports cost me 18 dollars and change, shipped from China. took 2 weeks to arrive. must match the revision number which is written on the original board. mine was revision 1.0. took less than 10 minutes to install. problem solved.
maybe temporary but free

cured my phone of the same problem with a paint brush and proper contact cleaner ( NOT WD40 OR LIKE) in the usb charger hole.
stuff known technically as pocket fegg gets in and causes leakage across contacts. however, worst case is connector is damaged and needs replacing as above.
Get the port replaced.
I had a similar issue.
<drunkbabble>
My microusb car charger is constantly used by the many female microusb ports from my friends and hitchhikers.
So it had a loose contact with my phone now because the Galaxy Y 's were too tight.
And the it charges / not charges / charges ... at about 150 times a minute.
</drunkbabble>
In your case your port might have suffered or you have dirt at the contacts. Try blowing it out with canned air and look for any visual clues of damage.
Got this problem right now and its really annoying.
I nearly wanted to throw my phone at the wall because of the dumb low battery noise playing like 20000 times a second .
My Desire HD and crapberry also decided to break today too ffs .
Gonna send them off to get repaired in the morning, back to my good old reliable nokia 3310 in the mean time
i am having this issue for over a month now. i changed the battery too lately. was on CM 10.1 and thought it was a ROM issue but then i found it to be the same as i switched to stock ROM.
And it would be real helpful if anyone of you guys could let me know how much changing the usb port cost me.
Clean It With A Little Whisky :]
cotton, dip it in a little whisky and then clean the usb port with a help of a needle/pin... worked for me :]
*make sure your phone is turned off and the battery is out while you do this application*
try and clean your charger as well.. Cheers!
Charging port issue!
I had exactly the same issue on my Galaxy Note-1. and stumbled across this thread. It confirmed the suspicions I already had. So I got my charging port changed. The phone is back to normal!

[Q] Charging problem

Hello everyone.
I have a really big problem with my Xiaomi Mi3w (Cancro) and i haven’t find a solution in months.
I have an issue with the battery(?) or with the micro usb connector, sometimes i can’t charge my battery, no matter what or how, i can’t in any way.
When i connect the phone to the wall charger it doesnt charge or it even drains the battery, even if it’s off, it happened that some times when i connect the phone to the charger at 20+% battery after some hours it’s at 10%.
When the phone behaves like this and i try to connect it to the pc it can’t seem to hold the connection for more than 3-4 seconds, it continuosly connects and disconnects and it’s impossible even to open it in explorer. Obviously it’s impossible to charge even in this way.
At first i thought that it could only be a hardware problem (faulty connector/charger/cable etc)
but the last time i had this issue (today) i discovered that i can keep the connection between pc and the phone using fastboot. When i use fastboot the phone doesn’t disconnects continuosly so i can say that in 99% it’s not a connector/cable problem.
Could it be a kernel bug? I know that the kernel it’s active even when the phone is off but in charge, this could explain the charging problem even if it’s off.
Another thing that i discovered is that when the phone is on the connection to the pc gets more stable if i turn off debug mode ( can keep the usb connection on for more than 30 secs but i can’t seem to charge it anyway).
Things that i tried to solve the problem:
-Change the charger (1st charger is xiaomi’s orignal/ 2nd it’s a sony with output 5V/850 mah/ 3rd is a lg 4.8V/1A/ 4th is a generic tablet charger which came with my acer iconia with 5V/2A) none of these solved the problem.
-Change the cable (used 10 and more different cables, every cable was tested with my other devices and all were working well with my moto G and acer iconia)
-Fastboot install of both stable and developer rom
-Clean fastboot install of both roms (formatting both systems earlier with cwm)
-Install via cwm of ivan 4.4 aosp and cyano 12 (both of these uses the same leaked kernel right?)
-Cleaning connector with a neddle, soft cloth and some alcohol
I’m not sure about this other point but the phone seem to get in this not charging state when the battery gets below 30% and i keep it uncharged overnight.
So i thought that i could also be a problem related to the governor used by the phone when gets to a low battery profile and specifically when this governor tells the phone to get in deep sleep.
(this could perhaps explain the problem of both cyano and ivans roms random reboots and the workaround using partial_wake_lock)
I hope that someone can help me to solve this problem because my device is useless now
Thanks in advance to everyone
i have the same problem with my MI3W. Sometimes i can charge it while smartphone is power off.
I tried with another battery. I am waiting for a new usb connector flex to check too.
Do you find any solution?

I think i might be having the same problem. My phone started acting weird at the exact same condition. The charging connection kept going on and off. Felt like hardware issue at first. Charged my phone somehow to full charge and reset it. Looks good now but still skeptical.
Fingers crossed.

Hi i resolved the problem some time ago, cleaning the connector with a very tiny needle, i didn't go very far the first time that i cleaned it, probably it's only dirt, try cleaning it yourself and see if it resolves the problem
going fine

Not charging

I got this phone 2 months ago brand new from ebay.
It had mostly working fine until today.
Battery was around 25%, so I plugged it in for charging. The charging connection kept disconnecting and reconnecting every second. I thought it could be a loose cable, but I checked everything. Eventually it connected, but the phone wasn't charging. I opened the settings and checked under battery, it said something like "connected, but not charging". I tried changing the charger, used 2 different charges but same result.
At this point it was clear the phone wasn't charging no matter what. I checked the USB port for dust, etc and also reset the phone. I also noticed the phone become very very laggy, not registering touch etc. Restarting the phone temporarily fixed lag and touch issues, but the problems came back quickly.
I also connected it to PC, but nothing happened.
Finally the battery has drained, and the phone has been plugged in for a few hours now, but still no charge. It's dead.
What could be the issue? Any suggestions? Seems like a hardware failure?
It's a 2 month old phone and I could be out $300+.
First time I bought a Xiaomi phone, this is a very scary and disappointing experience. I didn't drop the phone, no damage. As I said the phone was 100% fine before.
i just experiencing this issue exactly a week ago, at that point my battery were 7% down to 5% while trying "the fail" and when i plug the charge it says "plugged in, can't charge right now" but after 3 hours or so charging in while the phone was on, it bounce back to 7% and still displaying that message.
after trying to charge while the phone was off for more than 12 hours with no results, i gave up and place silica gel around the charging port for approx. 3 hours or so. and then i do this step.
i don't know what the pin point of the causing factor is and i don't know what step is unnecessary but this is what i do. i place silica gel around the port incase the port detecting moisture and preventing charge from happening, after 3 hour i try charging again using 18w quick charge brick while the phone is fastboot and turning it on. just like that the battery was charging.
after my battery were full i update the software to pie incase this is because of the software update (just like pixel 2 did), give this tutorial video a try*https://youtu.be/F9XNIbpC1yA some ppl able to do it in the first try, some 3x, some 6x, me? i finally achieve that on my 11x. just give it a shot and patience, no need root, ubl, etc etc
the fail. i tried using my friend charger (we have same phone) didn't work. tried using computer usb didn't work. tried using that quick charger brick without that silica gel part, didn't work. tried charging when the phone is off (i waited more than 12+hours) still didn't work.
based on that my conclusion were either there is moisture in the port and the sensor detect it and prevent the battery from charging up or the V9.6.17.0.ODIMIFE november update causing this problem.
again, this is what i do
-place/cover the charging port with silica gel
-wait approx. 3hour or more
-put the phone in fastboot mode
-charge the phone with 18w fast charger while in fastboot mode
-try to turn on the phone
the only post about this issue other than this was some guy in moto x4 thread on reddit, i don't know why there is so little info about this issue.

Seems like a hardware failure? idk, i'm still able to transfer data and listen to music through the dongle while this problem happening, so i assume it was software thing

Thanks for the response. I don't have silica gel but I placed the phone in rice for a few hours and then tried charging, it still won't work.
I can't get into fastboot either because the battery has drained completely by now.
Might have to take it to a mobile repair shop?

i'm legit scared ?, pray for my phones ?
but thanks god, the "plug in the charger while the phone on fastboot mode and turning it on"
still works, just like last time. even without the 18w fast charger.
I have the same problem. Battery drain could be the fingerpint sensor issue. The thing is the battery got really depleted and now, it seems the charger program/circuitry is consuming more power than it can charge. I tried several chargers, several usb-c cables, but nothing. Some hours ago the notification light blinked for some seconds and then it appeared as if it was indeed charging, it even showed the charging battery image ( the one without %, the one that appears when you have a really low battery charge ). But it has been hours trying and it doesn't do that anymore and there seems to be no way of making it charge and boot.
This is an appalling situation.
Similar problem, I purchase a Xiaomi Mi A2 by ebay, and passing 30 days (warranty expired) phone dead and never came to turn on, just flashing a white led, but nothing else, somebody has experimenting this problem and steps to revive the phone:crying:
same ****, guys.
I've tried several cables, couple of hard resets and etc. But now I have a pretty brick
I don't know if related but I had similar behavior after I dropped my a2 in the WC, after drying and figuring what prevented it to power on I discovered the USB plug at it's logic board internal connector as the parts preventing it to turn on, some cleaning an drying and my phone comeback.
Then today I observed it didn't charge, and the body warmed, It showed 50% charge, I rebooted and then it didn't turn on again, since I was doing some workout I figured the usb again got wet, I opened cleaned , dried assembly again and then it turned on w/o issue, but then the battery was showing 90% charge not 50% as before rebooting.
Maybe this your situation guys, it you think your phone somehow got wet, and you have no way to claim warranty (or too far from service center) try cleaning and drying the internal USB port connections. (Doit at your own risk).

I just had the same issue. The phone just randomly cant charge anymore and when I plugged it the battery charge indicator just keep going on and off but without charging. I tried to reset the phone in factory mode but no result, I tried with differents cables but no result. When the phone was plugged it was very very laggy but as soon as I unplugged it everything was coming back to normal.
Now I have run out of battery and my hopes to get my phone back to life are pretty low considering what I read on this topic. If anyone has a solution please tell us!
I would add that I always took care of my Xiaomi Mi A2 (no fall, no water spilled on it, no overheating) and everything was going well until a few hours ago. I didn't installed any new app since like a week ago (from the PlayStore) and I updated to 8.1 maybe a month ago. I thought waiting so long for Android Pie was annoying but this is way worse. If the situation doesn't evolve I will never buy a Xiaomi phone again. Very disappointed
Mi A2 stopped charging
After 2 month of use and Android pie update this stupid device refuses charging. I'm so very disappointed. I can't believe i fell to this Chinese trap. This is the last time I'm purchasing a Xiaomi phone! "Android One phone".... Yeah right!

In my case, after 4 months of use, just after Android pie update, I have stumbled on my MI A2 lite showing problems with USB connection and charging. The phone is not able to stablish a stable connection to the charger or the computer, it just keeps connecting and reconecting, begin charging and stopping charging.... If I leave the phone charging all night, it seems to finally fully charge. I can't figure how this problem may be related to Android Pie update, so I think it is just coincidence, and the usb connector is faulty, though I don't know the cause.... I think I will try to have it replaced
so did you fix the problem OP? i just started expiriencing what i think is the same problem.

if you go to the battery setting and it's says "plugged in, can't charge right now" then you should try plug in the charger while the phone on fastboot mode and turning it on
(read my previous comment) i experience this issue 2times and it's been running smoothly ever after

i just experiencing this issue exactly a week ago, at that point my battery were 7% down to 5% while trying "the fail" and when i plug the charge it says "plugged in, can't charge right now" but after 3 hours or so charging in while the phone was on, it bounce back to 7% and still displaying that message.
after trying to charge while the phone was off for more than 12 hours with no results, i gave up and place silica gel around the charging port for approx. 3 hours or so. and then i do this step.
i don't know what the pin point of the causing factor is and i don't know what step is unnecessary but this is what i do. i place silica gel around the port incase the port detecting moisture and preventing charge from happening, after 3 hour i try charging again using 18w quick charge brick while the phone is fastboot and turning it on. just like that the battery was charging.
after my battery were full i update the software to pie incase this is because of the software update (just like pixel 2 did), give this tutorial video a try*https://youtu.be/F9XNIbpC1yA some ppl able to do it in the first try, some 3x, some 6x, me? i finally achieve that on my 11x. just give it a shot and patience, no need root, ubl, etc etc
the fail. i tried using my friend charger (we have same phone) didn't work. tried using computer usb didn't work. tried using that quick charger brick without that silica gel part, didn't work. tried charging when the phone is off (i waited more than 12+hours) still didn't work.
based on that my conclusion were either there is moisture in the port and the sensor detect it and prevent the battery from charging up or the V9.6.17.0.ODIMIFE november update causing this problem.
again, this is what i do
-place/cover the charging port with silica gel
-wait approx. 3hour or more
-put the phone in fastboot mode
-charge the phone with 18w fast charger while in fastboot mode
-try to turn on the phone
the only post about this issue other than this was some guy in moto x4 thread on reddit, i don't know why there is so little info about this issue.
-----
Seems like a hardware failure? idk, i'm still able to transfer data and listen to music through the dongle while this problem happening, so i assume it was software thing
same...
please post an update so there's more information available regarding this problem and good luck

Hello,
I have something similar, I'm in Switzerland and running the Pie Rom from Nederland. I don't think it's link to Pie, maybe from a security patch because it didn't come at the same time for me, but this is what I got:
-When I plug my phone to a fast charger, I get "charging for a few second, then not charging"
-If I plug my fast charger and reboot the phone, the phone will charge (I need to double check but I guess slowly)
-I have a Audio-Adapter (USB-C, 3.5mm, USB Type C), so if plug the charger to this Adapter, and them plug the phone, the phone is charging fine (slowly).
So to me it looks like an issue with the fast charging...

No I was not able to fix it. I am talking with my credit card coverage and see what they can do.
I got a different phone in the meantime.
I also got rid of all my other Xiaomi products, never going to give this company a cent in the future. They are cheap for a reason !! Limited support and shady parts used in their devices. They can't be using quality internal components with such cheap prices.
Their mibox also randomly die.
Quantity over quality seems to be their mantra
Guys, it happened to me too,
I've flashed from android one Pie rom, to pixel experience.
Pixel Experience is great rom, was working brilliant for couple of days.
Then it stopped to charge. Now phone has discharged to 0% and I can't do anything.
My assumption is that getting new battery in exchange might help me fix the issue.
I've read that once you move to Pixel Experience Pie version form Android One 9.0 you need to flash kernel to. I did not do that.
Now waiting for the battery to arrive and will see what I can do with it.

Temperature at the USB connector is too high..

My unit is the tencent 128 gig version..May charging port is overheating within 5 seconds after inserting any charger. Tried factory reset but the problem still persist. I've been using the stock charger. Now I'm using the side port for charger. Anyone who experienced this?
I haven't had that problem. Is it only the port on the bottom of the phone or does the one on the side do it also?
You may have a bad unit.

I also started getting that error since today morning... It's quite irritating
Recently have had the same issue
I've had the same issue as well, noticed my port smelled like a shorted circuit, also noticed it only occurs when connected to fast chargers (the stock charger that it came with) started using the side port for fast charging, but noticed earlier today that the side port began to give off the same smell and disconnected it before it gave a notification for it. The phone instructs me to go to a Asus service area like there's gonna be a convenient one around the corner but I live in California and according to the Asus website closest one is in New York. Smdh.

Replying because of your username.
Is your phone a US or China model? Any signs of pocket lint in the ports?

I have the china model(tencent games) 128 gb version same as OP, when the issue first happened the first thing I did was try to blow any possible lint out that could've been in there, I didn't explicitly see any but I did so just in case.
I don't know about the smell but that thing certainly overheat randomly when charging.
I have 2 ROG phones, 1) 512/CN converted to WW version 2)Utimate Edition WW.
Both phones having charging issues. 1 got the overheating message while in my pocket and not being charged. Now only works with non fast charging on bottom port but side still works. 2 I put on charge one night and woke up to it not having charged at all. It's basically brand new and in same situation as the first one, fast charging only through side port and only certain slow chargers work on bottom port.
I am having sudden issues with bottom usb port. It refuses to detect any kind of charger after 4 to 5 hours of being unplugged.
A restart solves the issue and I can charge. But re-occur after another 4 to 5 hrs. Its so weird
Side port is working fine
I have the exact same issue, but mine comes up with the temperature warning and doesnt charge at all.
Haven't tried the side port which I will do later.
Not really keen on sending it back to the place of purchase (I did report it) because they may charge a fee (plus shipping is already out of pocket),
anyone get anywhere on a fix?
I have it too just 3 days after purchased. USB port was short circuited I guess. Seems a latent design defect not an user issue. Mine is global version not Tencent
I have the same issue as well. Sometimes it just writes USB port temp too high, then restarts on its own, but is still overheating. I switch it completely off, then it seems to work. I have this problem mostly even without any charger plugged in... It is occurring since the last update in March-April more frequently
I use a Rog phone 2 ultimate edition and i also experience the same problem. I have been charging for less than an hour when the alarm sounded that the usb port is overheating. Charging port smelled something like a short circuit and tried to charge again on the same port. Now red light blinks and the alarm still on. Now im charging on the side port. But still this is alarming. Considering it is a gaming phone. It supose to endure long and extreme usage.
I had issue with charger and via twinviedock overheating message.... CN 128gb ver on WW... Safe to say after ROG 1 and two ROG 2 broke screen small fall... Not buying again
Same here. Bottom port burnt off, so I'm using the side one now. Hopefully it doesn't get any issues until i send it for repair.
It just happened this week on my phone, exact same problem as others. Short circuit smell the first time the warning appeared. I only knew about it because of a loud 'ding-dong' alarm that went off with the notification.
I'm also getting the alarm and notification when I'm not charging the phone. The alarm went off at 06:30 a.m. today.
Have to use the side port now.
Chinese Tencent Version
I'm just glad that none of these phones are exploding.
