Seems I probably have an issue with the charging cable for the tablet. Cannot get the dock or tablet to show any signs of charging. Unfortunately, none of the stores in my area report having a replacement cable.
Does anyone know another ASUS or non-ASUS device that uses the same end? If I can't find something else then no tablet until I can get a new one off the net which really sucks.
I was able to get the wall charger to at least light up the dock LED and act like it is charging. However, no matter what I do can't get the tablet to turn on. Doesn't matter if it is docked and charging that way or charging straight.
Any suggestions?
Hello,
I've been experiencing strange occurrences with my wireless qi chargers. I have find that different kernels or ROM make the wirless charging inconsistent.
Example the charging will go on and off every 6 seconds etc.
Anyone else experience this?

I have a Samsung fast charge pad in my car, a fast charge cradle at home and they all work perfect across roms and kernels. If you are using a case it needs to be qi certified to work proper.
BADASS NOTE 5 & 4 & LG G4
Posted this over on the timurs kernel Reddit but he wanted to get all defensive about it and deleted it cause his kernel is perfection in his own opinion. So I'm copying it and pasting it here. Just want any info on it I can get.
When I first setup my nexus I originally used my cigarette lighter worked fine then I converted to a dcdc converter and set it up for 5v when I hooked the nexus up there was a pop and a burning smell but every thing worked fine. Other than I noticed a horrible battery drain issue. After a few months I discovered anything I plugged in was draining the battery even if the tablet was off. The led on the phone charger would even light up even if it wasn't plugged into the wall. Got another nexus and everything worked flawless for months with the same DCDC and timurs kernel. Plugged it in took it out multiple times with no problem. Yesterday I decided I wanted to give marshmallow a test. It worked fine to other than it wouldn't charge due to the OTG cable and the way the stock kernel works so i flashed Element Kernel and enabled OTG charging and fast charge. It came on it charged and everything except music was playing through the tablet and not the DAC so I unplugged it and plugged it back in. It wouldn't charge..... Then I realized the charger had welded itself into the port and wouldn't come out. Finally got it out and tried it again. This time the tablet went black and won't do anything the port is melted on the tablet and the cord has melted plastic in the end. Is it a DCDC converter issue? Or a kernel issue? Maybe fast charge related? Just asking cause of the problem I had at the very beginning. Do you think the LCD might have survived? If so I was going to buy another nexus with a bad screen for like $25. Any input would be greatly appreciated just too keep it from happening again. Thanks in advance.
Fast charging burned cable? Ampere value?
You should put 'fast charging' in the title.
I used Timurs kernel on a 2012 Nexus 7 and the batterie was getting so hot, I had to disable fast charging. Since I used a Y usb cable to charge the tablet and only one usb device (usb ethernet adapter) there was no problem.
Maybe you should use an dc adapter with less Ampere output? Normal Charging is 0.5 Ampere but fast charging was up to 1.5 Ampere for me (checked with one of the cheap 'USB Charger Doctor Voltage Current Meter Mobile Battery Tester'). Maybe 1.0 Ampere is enough? Or use a thicker usb cable?
I think the LCD is fine because the overpower destroyed the mainboard only. But look inside the Nexus and see yourself!
I thought I would throw this out there and see if anyone else has seen the issue. I am on my second s8 plus that has lost the ability to charge wirelessly. I am only using Samsung based chargers and have seen the issue from the 1 st gen slow charger to the latest that was released with the S8. The device was charging fine at first and then after a few days it stopped all together. I have tried all the known fixes including trying a shorter USB3 cable from the power brick to a hard reset of the device itself. All options for fast charging have been disabled and tested with no change in the wireless charge state. I even went as far as swapping out the new Sammy wireless fast charger I picked up at best buy to make sure there was not an issue with that. When placing the phone on a wireless charger there is no prompt to show connection or even the issue where the wireless charging would connect and then disconnect. It just will not charge on any wireless charger. Charging via USB port is not an issue. I was wondering if the latest update that fixed the red tint was the culprit but I did not allow my replacement device to update at first to test. Sure enough it started doing the same thing after a few days.
Has anyone else seen this? I am due to swap over to a third device tomorrow afternoon. The sprint techs I have been working with have sent the first device to one of the Samsung engineers they have been working with.
Thanks.
Mine did this after a few days. My fix was just to restart the phone. It seems after a few wireless pauses a safety feature keeps it from charging again

Wireless charging is awful on this device. No matter what case (or even no case), my phone must often does not charge wirelessly. I've tried multiple chargers. I get the "connected; not charging" message. Sometimes it works, but seems to need to be in the exact spot. Even then, it often stops charging after a while or drains faster than it charges.
Any insight or solution to this?
This is a stock pixel 7 pro, bootloader still locked. Bought from Google store and activated on T-mobile.
What wireless charging pad are you using?
I was having all the same thoughts as you. Had a couple Samsung "fast" wireless chargers. However, bought a new one Costco that's not Samsung and it works as expected. Never have to realign or wake up to a dead phone anymore.
my rooted p7p with tq1a.230205.002
is charging well with wireless pads and wireless powerbanks.
always heating up p7p tho
I don't know why people like using Samsung but I prefer other brands
the backrooms​
My Pixel 7 Pro works fine using this 30w Wireless Charger from Amazon - Nanami 30W Max Wireless Charger
This is the only thing missing from the OnePlus 11 - but I don't care...

A variety that all worked great with my Samsung s20. Ankers, Samsung, and a few generics that worked better. None work well with the pixel 7 pro
I'm using the Belkin 15w charger and it seems to be working well.
I use the wireless charging dock I bought for my OnePlus9 Pro. Never had an issue with charging

In my case, I figured out my wireless charging is unstable if my phone is in any condition where it might get at all warm. The Pixel 7s are just lousy at staying cool, and once the temperature rises to high 30/low 40C (which doesn't take much at all), wireless charging is severely throttled if not completely stopped. So if it's sunny out, I understand my phone won't charge in my car mount. The sun just makes it too hot, and it won't bother (no matter how cool I keep it in my car, direct sunlight on the phone is too much). If it's sitting on my wireless charger and I decide to try and use my phone while it charges, I understand odds are VERY high it will get too hot and stop charging. And if it stops charging because it has overheated, I know now to give up rather than keep readjusting it on the wireless charger, because even if it's not charging, if it's trying, it's still making the phone hotter, which is making it take even longer to cool down and resume charging. So I just take it off and don't bother putting it back on until it's gotten a chance to settle first.
It's finicky and irritating that their flagship has such lousy thermal control, but knowing that my wireless charging issues are linked to my phone's temperature has helped me understand how to keep my phone charged. Those who only charge wirelessly without ever trying to use the phone and only in particularly cool environments may never observe any wireless charging issues at all.

I noticed this too
I find Power saver with less brightness helps, but if it gets hot it's not charging at all
No problems with 2 different wireless chargers with a transparent case.
I measured the power usage with an external device and its mostly the charger uses 14 watts power between 0 and 80%. (don't forget the energy loss with this technology!)
No real overheating. But placing the device correctly affects the power draw a lot.
I agree. It's terrible, no matter what charging pad i use, it always glitchy.
Not to mention, the reverse charging won't work properly either. Plenty of time i need to recharge my buds while travelling to no avail.
I struggled with wireless chargers for P7P too, I tried at least 4 with varying degrees of success but ultimately I just ended up using some of the store credit I got for buying to the phone to get a Pixel Stand 2 and it works great.
I can happily say : MARCH RELEASE FIXED MY WIRELESS CHARGING ISSUE.
