So i just updated my rom to a jelly bean rom and it wont charge unless i power off the tablet, when its on and i put it to charge it makes the charging noise but a red x appears on the battery icon. I thought at first it was the rom but i tried another rom and it continues to do the same thing can anybody help me please
This is not a software problem may there is an issue with the charger or the connector have tried replacing the charger

How are you trying to charge it? If you've connected the USB to a computer it will show the red X. It needs the Mains charger to charge while it's on.

im charging it on the stock wall charger that it came with. it only charges if i power off the tablet
Then that sounds like a wierd software problem. I am going to take a shot in the dark and recommend you back up your tablet then reload your rom and see if that helps. When did this issue first start happening?

Idk what the problem is but when I charge my phone no charging indicator comes up, if I leave the screen off for a little bit and turn it back on the number increases as if it is charging also if I turn the phone off and plugin the charger it turns on the phone instead of going to the charging mode, anyone else witnessed this problem? I've tried 3 different chargers and the same thing, tried reformaormatting and installing a different rom and the same thing happens running matrix 19 kernal...please help?

How old is your phone? did you try a new cord? I its not likely that it's the kernel or the rom. It's more likely your usb port
Also never had that happen... I would also say port or cord...
Any themes installed or a flashed battery icon?

No, brand new install...my phone is a year old and its charging just not the way its supposed to, I would really hate to send my phone in, any ideas on how to clean clean the port? I've also tried different chords as well as wall outlets the first time it boots up after a fresh format/install it works perfect as soon as the phone shuts off or reboots it occurs

I found out what it is, I have one of those wall outlet chargers with the USB extension for the chord and I think the wall outlet part of the charger is messed up because I can take the USB chord out of it hook it up to the laptop and the charging icon appears bit still charges with the wall just no charging icon WEIRD

Today my inspire stopped charging. It shows the charging indicator but battery doesn't get any charge, it keeps draining instead..
It is not the wall charger because I connected it to the PC and the same thing..

Try a new battery. Call att and see if they will send you a new one. Batteries don't last forever.

Are the three stock batteries. If you can, try the stock battery in another cell.

My Inspire does nor charge from pc or wall charger with a data capable cable if I leave all the radios on. In airplane mode it will or if I use a cable that has data disabled. When in usb charge mode, the phone will charge at 500 mA max, which may not be enough to power the phone and charge the battery .

have you tried a different micro-usb charger?
So a post was made because it won't charge ? O god I don't want to live on this planet anymore

it might be the USB CABLE as i had the same problem..
my phone shows that it was charging with the orange LED light on, but the battery would'nt recharge. But after getting a new USB CABLE, it started charging.
so I suggest you to try/buy a new USB Cable
this site is quickly becoming a general user troubleshooting and help forum. maybe if people just called the phone manufacturer first most of thier problems would be fixed faster haha

I know for a fact that the USB cable is the problem because I used a WD MyPassport cable to charge my phone and it worked fine, but the original cable was showing all signs of charging when it was actually discharging it

Very true about the usb cable, also I've learned that sometimes the contacts inside of the charging port become very dirty and if you have a brush small enough you could potentially resolve the issue of it not charging....then there's also the problem with it possibly being the battery, my mother, sister, and fiancee all have or had issues with the batteries and had 2 of them replaced.

My friend threw her phone on charge for the whole night and woke up this morning to find her battery level low. This isn't the first time it happened either. What could cause this?
P.S. the screenshot was taken right after the phone was pulled off the charger

Try a different charger? Also, if the phone was charged by USB, use the wall charger instead. Some USB ports may cut power when the computer is asleep, etc. For instance, I usually connect my phone to my PC using the USB ports on my monitor (just because they are conveniently located). Those ports get shutdown when the computer goes to sleep, which I always forget.

Well she plugs into the wall, never the computer. And the charger she uses is the charger that came w/ the phone. If its the charger that could possibly be the issue then I'll tell her to get it swapped out at an at&t store but I really don't think that's the issue honestly
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Chargers can definitely just crap out, even if new. MicroUSB chargers are pretty common, and I've used ones for other devices (like my Motorola Bluetooth headset) on my One X just fine. If you have another MicroUSB charger laying around, its worth checking (just to eliminate the charger as the cause) rather than having to run to the store.
Otherwise, its possible there is something wrong with the microUSB jack on the phone itself, or some other hardware or software problem with the phone. If the charger is not the problem, backup personal data and factory reset the phone. If the problem still occurs, I'd recommend getting a warranty replacement.

Can you confirm that there was a "lightning bolt" in the battery icon in the status bar? If it's charging, there should be a lightning bolt in it. Check when you plug in the charger and just before unplugging it. If the lighting bolt is missing then most likely there is no current going into the device to charge the battery. It could also be a bad battery if the charger is working fine.

Are you absolutely sure the power outlet was switched on? May seem like a silly question but I've done it before.

Yes there was definitely a lightning bolt when it was on. And is it possible to wipe the battery stats even if the phones not rooted?

Hi Guys,
I have been searching for an answer for this problem but couldn't find one
My stock gingerbread 2.3.5 not rooted GR has following problem
I woke up and tried to charge my GR but it didn't recognize the charing cable, so i tried it on the GS2 cable of my dad and it didn't work also.
I have tried the GS2 on my charging cable and it worked and i have already tried an GR battery of my friend and the problem was there too.
The GR does not recognize my OTG cable wich was working a few days later and also works on my nexus7 perfectly.
The GR USB cable does not work also.
I have let it on and it showed me 14% Battery and after one hour (not plugged into the charger) it showed me 30% battery.
When I tiried to charge it when it was off, the Battery appeared and it showed the loading circle in the battery then the screen went off and after 5 seconds, this repeated until you plugged it off.
My question is what i can do with it?
Thanks in advance

If you're trying to charge by USB and not the OEM wall charger, you need a filter like the one described in this thread so your note charges as if it was plugged into a high powered charger. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2088369 if you're seeing the red x using the OEM wall charger, contact Samsung. Good luck.
