Battery jumps from 11% to 22% once plug
I left the battery drain to 11%, well I did not want to put in on charge in the evening and left it till in the morning. As the title says, once plugged in for charging, the battery charging percentage suddenly jumped to 22%, than charging normally, a bit faster because I am using usb wall charger taken from Lumia 520, AC16X.
I removed it and used the usb cable that came with the phone, I do not think that is the problem with the AC16X, just charges faster
And one more thing, last time when I charged the phone to 100% I left it to see when stops charging, I mean, In spite of being charged to 100% still shown charging on the battery diagram window.
I left it 30 more minutes but nothing, I expect to see the word charged, but no, keeps showing charging…
It is normal?
Thanks.

Hello.
I have a new Moto g 4g and sometimes when I plug it into the mains to charge the charging battery icon appears and the phone says charging on the lock screen. But as soon as the % number should go up (i.e. after a couple of mins on charge), the battery charge icon is still there but the phone no longer says charging on the lock screen, and it doesn't charge no matter how long it is plugged in for (although the battery doesnt drain either).
I turned the phone off and plugged it in and when it got to the charge screen it kept flicking between a question mark, and the percentage charged amount.
It seems to always charge fine when I plug it into a USB on my computer (although slowly).
Has anyone else seen this? Is it worth completly draining the battery and charging from flat, or would this do more harm than good?
Thanks for the help.

did u try a different charger?
For the past 3 months my tablet has been struggling to charge.
I would plug it in, it would show the charging icon on the battery, but it won't charge. Sometimes it will INCREDIBLY slowly. Other times (most of the time) the charging percentage will decrease while its plugged into a charged.
I have tried:
1.Soft reset
2.Hard reset
3.Removing micro sd card
4.Different (original) lead
5.Different (original charger (3 in total)
6.Opening it up and disconnecting the battery terminal for 5 mins
7.Holding down power while battery disconnected
8.Connecting the charger FIRST before connecting the other end to the mains.
Im getting nowhere. Currently its on 1% and just wont charge.
To me it could be the charging port or the battery. How do i determine (without spending heaps on a battery) what to replace first?. Is there anyone else with this problem?.
Thanks
Just now i plugged it in charge. The tablet is off as its on 0%. It took 30 mins to get to 4%, then it went back down to 0% instantly.
But like i say, when it DOES have a charge, the charge is usually decreasing as the charger is plugged in, till it reaches 0%!. Only sometimes very randomly and very rarely will it actually charge properly, and when it does it operates perfectly with it OFF the charger. So it doesn't drain dramatically off the charger.
Right now im struggling to even get a charge out of it now.
Can someone help? charging port or battery fault??

I'd say it's the battery.

Its on 30% now, creeping up slowly. So strange.
Have you seen any other cases the same to say it is the battery?

When a device charges strangely fast or agonizingly slow, it's typically the battery, also, randomly discharging fast is also a sign.
You could always have a repair take a look with a voltmeter, testing the battery and the USB port/charging components. Or you could do it yourself.
Sometimes it's just the solder working loose on some of the pins from your USB port, you can do a reflow on those solder points.

Hi everybody,
it's a few days I have weird problem with SuperCharge.
I apologize for the lenght of this post, but I don't want to miss any detail that could help in solving my problem.
I recently replaced the battery with a new original one (I hope) bought from an eBay seller.
When I switched-on the smartphone, battery level was 58%. So, I used it normally and, when battery level lowered at 30%, I plugged-in the charger.
Completed the recharge, I used the phone as always.
At night, with 30% of battery level, I plugged-in the charger and I went to sleep.
The next day, in the morning, I turned on the screen and the battery level was 32%. I was confused... So, I un-plugged the charger, plugged it in again and the phone needed just few minutes to fully charge at 100% (very weird).
Then I normally used the phone for the entire day.
At night, with 30% of battery level, I plugged-in the charger and I went to sleep.
The day after in the morning I turned on the screen and again the battery wasn't fully charged. It was only 34%.
This time I unplugged the charger and I restarted the phone. After that, it showed 100%. So, in reality, the battery was fully charged!
This made me think it could have been a software related problem: so, I performed a Wipe-Cache-Partition and a battery re-calibration process.
After that, I noticed the charging process was slower, although the phone shows "Super-Charge" in the lock-screen.
So, I wanted to monitor the charging process with Ampere and this is what happens:
- as soon as I connect the charger, for the first few seconds the charging rises to about 4000mA (as it should);
- suddenly the charging stops, as if I disconnected the charger. At the same time, the battery temperature rises for one second to 44/45 ° C and then quickly returns to 32/34 ° C.
- after a few seconds, the phone starts charging again, but at 1600/1700mA.
- cyclically, therefore, the phone tries again to increase the charging to 4000mA, but, as soon as it reaches the peak, the same phenomenon described above is repeated.
I noticed that the charger overheats while charging.
I replaced the USB-C 5A cable, but the problem persists, so it's not cable related.
If, on the other hand, I use a non-5A USB-C cable, the phone recharges in FastCharge mode (2A) without interruptions and the charger does not heat up.
So, the problem exists only with SuperCharge.
Do you think the charger is defective?
Or is the new battery defective?
I thank in advance anyone who will help me. :fingers-crossed:
I noticed a similar problem with super charge.. When plugged in for charging, super charge doesnt show.. It takes super long to charge to even 50%.. So i tried other cables as well and same issue.. I restarted the phone a few times and then switched it off.. Plugged charger in and left it over night. I noticed the next day super charge was functioning correctly
Been having some issue with my Xperia 5 II with wall outlets. Phone does not charge with wall outlet and portable battery. Tried different wires but does not charge. I did notice that when I plug the phone to the wall outlet the phone detects it cause I feel it vibrate but just doesn't charge. However it does charge with the same wires to a computer.
Anyone having this issue or have any solutions?
My phone was dead one morning and when I plugged it in I got a vibration but the LED light that indicates charging did not light. I tried everything and as last resort I went to the manual. It said that if you drain the battery when you start charging it gives no visible clue, none, until it hits around 15%. That was true. I plugged it in and read a book and eventually the red LED came on and the phone charged and all has been well.

before this happen when i charge my phone either below or above 15% it shows the charging icon on the battery and the red LED. And like I mention plug in to charge on the computer under 15% i see the LED on and charge icon on the battery. Nonetheless i will try your method and try plugging it in under 15% to see if it charges.
Tried charging the phone at 0% and also inbetween 0% and 15% still not charging. The only way for it charge now is on a fast charger sony usb c cable.
A few months ago I got a new phone and put my OnePlus One aside. By the end of the day the phone had discharged completely and turned off. I tried plugging it to a charger the same day, but it wouldn't charge or boot. There are no vibrations, no charging LED indicator, nothing. I tried leaving it to charge for 6 hours, stop charging, and then reconnect the charger again but nothing. The battery doesn't even get hot after leaving it on the charger for 6 hours. It's like it doesn't even charge whatsoever. I swapped the battery about a year ago for a new OPO battery, and had no issues with it. This only happened after it completely discharged and refused to charge.
I used to have problems charging an empty battery with a low powered charger. Try using a 2000+ mA charger and a decent cable.
