Xiaomi Mi A2 charging issue - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Questions & Answers

I have a mi a2 and it has some problem with charging. Whenever i connect it to a charger, it charges for a second, then stops and then starts again. Because of this, i cannot charge my phone when its on. To charge it, i have to turn it OFF and then it charges VERY slowly and gets to about 80% overnight after 8-9 hrs.
I have tried charging it with different cables so its def. a phone issue.
I know its not a software issue because my phone just got the android 10 update and its still not charging.
After reading some forums, i figured out i should replace the USB port as its the most fragile part. So i bought a usb flex port from ebay and replaced the original port, but then the phone stopped charging completely.
It still kept doing the stupid charging-not charging cycle, but when powered off, it couldnt charge.
Im not sure now if I should buy battery from ebay or not because i think i got ripped with the usb port.
BTW i live in Denmark and i have imported an Indian model and there are absolutely no shops here that repair Xiaomi phones.
What should i do? Suggestions?
Edit: im not sure if this is related or not, but i started getting the problem after i tried charging the phone with a pixel fast charger

This is definitely the hardware problem.
Either your cable , voltage or power related circuits.
However, I don't think it's battery problem.
Consider your situation, I think find a electrician, or electrical engineer (who can deal with electrical board) is highly recommend.

In my MI A2 device, I've been using custom rom and whenever i plugged in my device there is no charging when phone is on so I've to switch off the phone to charge it and when i connect it to laptop it is not showing as well. I've done everything in my knowledge to remove this problem and atlast I've to roll back to stock firmware of device running on Android 10 but that problem is not gone completely. In status bar there is a permanent pop up of ''Charging connected device via USB" and when i plugged my device I've to switch it to 'This Device' from 'Controlled Device' in USB Preferences. It is not charging normally when i plugged in.
please share any answer regarding that I've done everything but can't fix it.

Not taking a charge in my car?

anyone seen this ...
my kaiser wont charge with my car charger (i've tried two now)
it will charge via usb on my laptop AND via the wall charger but it wont take a charge from the car
any ideas?
(running duttys latest rom if that helps)
edit: i've tried two cars as well
sorry to bump this but has anyone seen this happen before?
don't have my phone in front of me.. but I believe under the battery setting's there is an option relating to charging when connected VIA USB to a computer -- make sure that it is ALLOWING (obviously) it to charge while connected...

Your car charger may not be providing enough mAh's to charge your phone. Try a different car charger or try a different car (it's possible that your cigarette lighter port may be bad).
Iv had same problem
Iv had the same problem with mine, as i couldnt find an original HTC charger around the high street, i purchased a Motorola one instead as its the same connection, worked beautifully for about a week, then it just stopped. The car charger still works fine but it wont charge my kaiser anymore. strange one but i think the only way is to purchase an original charger (HTC).
I've got an old Motorola charger (for an MPX-200) and a Cingular-branded one for a RAZR and they both work fine. An HTC-branded charger shouldn't be required.
I had the same issue. Tried 3 different chargers. Finally called at&t and they
sent a replacement. If your USB/charge port looks like this, you'll probably have to have it replaced.

Phone got dead.. Need help.

My MI-410 is bricked. It is not booting up, no keypad lights. At first tried to connect it to my laptop without inserting battery and then insered the battery. The phone started at that time.
But then it again bricked after 2-3 days. And it is not starting since then. I tried the the same procedure but no help now.
I tried the procedure on different computers too, but no help.
Please help me, as I really loved my device. It is completely dead. At service center they said "We can't help you". They can't do it.
Any help will be appreciated.

how did it happen...
just try to boot in fast boot mode. if this works your MI410 is not yet dead.
In case you had nandroid backup before everything went wrong, you should be able to restore your system from recovery.......

Can't open boot mode. The problem happened since when I was flashing a new ROM at midnight. I got asleep and my phone was in CWM recovery for whole night.
When I wake up, the battery was gone and my device too.
None of the methods work. No boot options nothing. Only red LED notification light when connected to Laptop.

plug it to the power socket for few(2-3) hrs without doing any thing. then ur phone should get back to normal.(dont use laptop for charging for this time)
this happened to me once. this is because of zero charge in the battery. the battery needs some juice to become normal.
else you can try to switch ON with spare battery if you have one.

Went to a mobile repairing shop. They said its a hardware issue, and they mend it for around 450 INR.
Feels a good deal. Lets see what they can do. Will go there today.
Meanwhile thanks @reversegear for your kind help.
Also my battery feels a little inflated, maybe the battery is also gone.
Hoping for the best.

Raspberry Pi 2, not booting, PWR & ACT constantly on

Hello,
I have purchased a Raspberry Pi 2 along with a Sandisk, class 10, 16 gb microSD card.
Installation of OSMC went smoothly with no errors. Later on I proceeded to connecting the RPi2 to HDMI, ethernet, keyboard AND ONLY THEN to the power supply.
The result was 2 leds (PWR&ACT) were constantly on (no flickering) and not boot was happening.
I unplugged from power, made sure everything was connected ok, then reconnected to power, the RPi2 booted properly.
Thinking I probably poorly conncted the RPi2 at first, I just proceeded and used it for a couple of hours, then turned it off (via shutdown in kodi) and went to bed.
This morning, I plugged it back in to power, and guess what? same thing again, both leds constantly on and no boot. Again, unplugged from power, plugged back in - and vualla, boots up normally again.
To make sure, I shut it down a few times and booted up again, and worked ok.
The only common denominator I can think of is both times this happened the RPi2 was turned off for a long period of time.
What am I missing here? SD card is recommended and working fine (if not, how does it boot), everything is connected properly. What could cause this issue?
Again, after the "first bad boot" it starts up find after I re-plug it to power.
This happend twice so far, and I couldn't find any answers regarding this issue (couldn't find posts describing ACT as constantly on).

Thanks.
Ah, this happened to me
Probably this OSMC is not very stable, and you might need to downgrade to a more stable version. Anyway, to be sure check to make sure by running rAspbian or something instead, and see if you get the issue.
Cheers
Disconnect HDMI cable when pi starts to boot. Then connect again when lights start to flicker.
Could be the power supply isn't quite up to snuff... Disconnect keyboard and try.

Can anyone at least suggest a way i can charge the battery without it charging through the kindle? If i can power it up then I should be able to follow instructions on how to re install the OS

Okay, well if you can figure out how to bypass the port and charge the battery directly then try that. If it boots up, how is it not charging? second and last question, do you own a factory cable?
please quote me so I get the notification of your reply.

Hey, the only way I think I can charge the battery is by removing it from the device and chopping up an old USB cable and putting the two wires directly into the battery. If watched numerous videos on YouTube. And I have a factory cable I made for a different Kindle. The Kindle won't do n e thing. If I plug the normal charger in the underside of the Kindle gets warm but that's about it. No flashing lights, no charge icon on screen. Thank you for you're reply.

Samsung Galazy A21 SM-A215U WONT POWER ON

I have a relative that has a A21 that all of a sudden wouldnt power up, they brought it in to the cellular provider and was told they needed a new battery.
A new battery was installed but this did not correct the issue.
Currently new battery installed, but no signs of life when pressing power button, and also no signs of life if plugged into usb charger.
Where can I start to troubleshoot. Im pretty proficient with troubleshooting as well as soldering. Is anyone out there that can help me get this going again?
All I need to get is the info off of the phone, picture, audio messages etc. there are some messages from siblings on it that have passed away, so Im doing everything I can to try to retrieve any of hte info retained on the phone.
The phone is currently mostly disassembled, I was trying to just test the power button to see if that was the issue, but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Power port pcb maybe, replace.
Check all ribbon cables, inspect and make sure they are properly installed and no bent pins.
Check battery connection. Is the battery good?
Otherwise a mobo failure may be the cause.
Did it get wet? Dropped? How did the failure start?

Ok, Is there a good resource for diagrams/schematics somewhere that I can reference? I have checked and the battery seems to be good, showing around 3.8v
It is strange because it doesnt look like it got wet at all, and it was not dropped, it's in otherwise excellent physical condition.
Just stopped turning on.
