I've had my note 10.1 for over a year now and it's always done well with charging, using the OEM charger and cable. I've used several different roms and no difference in charging. I recently installed Gnabo V3 and it's been no different for over a week. Starting last night, it's charging very slowly. For instance, I was down to 21% this morning. I put it on the charger seven hours ago and it's only up to 73% now. I did install the Xposed framework yesterday but would that make such a big difference in charging?? The only module I installed was Gravitybox, and that was just to add buttons to the navigation bar. I plan to uninstall Xposed and see if it goes back to normal, but wanted to share my experience and see if others have had similar issues.

I had the same problem and I found out that my usb cable stoped working properly. Can you try using another persons usb cable or buy a new one? That fixed my problem, good luck.
change usb cable.

ofc its a rom issue as when i go back to ics the charging its ok! in jelly bean its very slow! i mean i put on charge all night and only about 20% charged! its not hardware problem, but jb issue. i just dont see anyone else here with note 10.1 complaining about this.
Don't have that problem, Only goit 3hours sleep last night and plugged in note before going to bed. Fully charged from 46% in 3 hours.... You might have a problem with your charger/cable/charging port....
If you have an S2,S3 or Note 2, or an old Gtab, the charger works for your note so you can check where the problem is....
Only charging issue I have is when I use different charger other than the original one then its slow..if I use the original one its fast

The OEM charger supplies 2 Amp hours of current to the battery. If the battery takes any more than 3.5 hours to charge the 7Ahr battery then there is something wrong with the tab or the charger.

Note takes around 5 hours to do a recharge, but if you have extention USB cable of a after market USB connector for longer length it will increase the charging time
Max charging time for me with OEM is about 3.5 hours with power saving mode on and screen off, or around 2.5-3 with the tablet OFF. Thats with a 6-9% battery remaining. Anything much more means something is eating your battery in the background while you are charging.. make sure you use OEM charger.
my charger was slow charging right from the box. They gave me a new one the next day and everything is fine now.
Thats odd. I never had any charging problems when i upgraded to jellybean. Have you compared your unit with someone who also has a note 10.1?
I picked mine up on Thursday and charged it to 100% with the supplied charger and cable, installed the 4.1 system update and used it throughout the following day watching video and general playing. I had it plugged in whilst I was using it and noticed it discharging, odd I thought as it should at least have maintained its charge but after my battery level dropped to 19% on that evening I turned it off completely and left it overnight, this morning it had only charged a further 20%. It has to be a firmware issue as its the only thing thats changed since I first charged it fully without any issues (first charge on 4.0 took approx 3 hours from unboxing).
I also have the same problem. Any solution to this?
I also want a solution to this.
I'm at wits end and feel like smashing this thing.

Power off completely while charging it will go faster.

No. Its still doesn't charge faster. Same result.
Its going back to Samsung today.
That sounds screwy... I have mine on all the time, plug into the wall and about 3 - 5 hours later its fully charged...
Might be the wall charger is the problem, Samsung may have a batch of faulty chargers....
Doubt its the charger. Because its now 100% full but still says charging, not charged like on 4.0.4.
Even my battery stats don't reset anymore.
In my opinion something happened in this OTA. Been viewing many 10.1 forums for a while now and never read anything about charging issues. Since the update, its an issue unless all of us just happened to either have faulty chargers at the same time or we all downloaded the same app at the same time which is the source of the issue. Im gonna say its not neither of those because what did happen, is we all downloaded an OTA at the same time and have since had this issue.
One thing I have noticed that works a little better for me is to do a reboot right before I throw it o the charger. I dont unlock it or anything, just keep it on the charger.
Im thinking of rooting over the weekend and trying a few different ROMs to see what happens.

Just a thought, but lots of people are complaining about this and lots of people are not experiencing a slow charge.
The update has been rolled out in many countries now - so what country are you all in and what sort of mains power do you have? Maybe it's something related to that
Shouldn't matter as the charger is the one in charge of voltage to the Note.
You can use a charger from America in Australia, UK or Europe (with an adaptor of course) and it should charge your note the same everywhere.
I have tested this by using a stepdown transformer to charge my note at 110 volts as well as the normal 240volts we use here in Australia. No difference.
I have an overseas model Note and need an adaptor to connect to the Oz mains. I also have another note bought here in Australia and it works fine using either Australian or overseas charger too at either 110V or 240V...
Hey guys first time posting here.
I've had my Z3 for almost 3 months now and have recently noticed some strange things going on with its charging.
Ive been using a third party magnetic charging cable for entire time I've had my phone and they work really well, they charge at a good speed. However, recently the charging time has slowed down dramatically. For example, last night my phone was at 31%, i charged it for 5 and a half hours and it only reached 36%. I checked the battery info tab and it says AC, also the graph showing the battery level shows that the charging is very slow, it says it was charging for the full 5 and 1/2 hours.
-also, no apps were running and the main power user was the screen (as always) which was off.
I don't know what's wrong, I did a battery partition reset a week ago since i was having problems where the phone won't charge past 80% and the reset fixed the 80% problem, but now this is happening.
The charging cable i use is not broken since it works in different power outlets throughout my house and charges the phone normally.
I don't use ROMs and it has the stock factory operating system.
Anyone else have this problem?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 for a while now. It has stock KitKat, rooted, and xposed installed. No problems. I've been using it less and less though, because this tablet only holds two movies worth of charge, and I feel like I always have to charge it when I don't want to.
Now, I hadn't touched it for two weeks, and it's off. I guess it just ran out of power. But the battery animation doesn't show when charging, and it won't turn on.
I left it on the power for a full day, even though I didn't see a charging animation, but I still couldn't turn it on.
I never had this on any android device, and I have no clue as to whether there are certain tricks to try to get it to work again before I can commence crying.
You have to hold the power button down for like 6 sec. Or more ...maybe that will work?
Yes, I tried for 60 seconds, you never know.
But I got it to work again! I drew the wrong conclusion.
I, by accident, tried again using the original charger. And now it charges!
I always use the usb power-out on the powercube on my desk. It is rated 2.1A while the original charger is only 2.0A, so technically it seems to be no problem and in practice it never was a problem.
From this experience I conclude that the tablet does charge with the powercube, but only if it's not dead. If there is absolutely no power in the tablet, it will only charge with the original charger. When charged a bit, it will continue charging with the powercube.
Strange story. I hope it might help someone else too.
I've heard that issue before with other devices, too. Seems to be a Samsung quirk. :silly:
Only two films worth of charge? I managed to watch the entire LOTR extended trilogy(11 and a half hours) on one charge on my p905, and it still had 18% left at the end... on a nonrooted, stock firmware. Is yours the Snapdragon or Exynos version?
12 hours of movie? I think I can do 6 hours of movie at the absolute most. And then it has to charge slowly for 8 hours. (See my problem with this tablet? )
I have Exynos version. It was already 'meager' when I first used it, before it was rooted. I read some more complaints about the moderate battery of the SM-P900, so I assumed it was unfortunate but normal.

Do you have another device or an extra cable and charge to make sure that its truly a tablet battery issue and not a charger or cable issue.
I've got samsung galaxy note 10.1 (GT-N8010). A few days ago I wanted to charge it. After a hour or two I saw that it didn't charge at all, the battery percentage was almost stuck (or it even drops down slowly). It only charges when the device is switched off (but it still takes much more time than before...). I'm using the stock charger (2,5A; I've tried with other chargers, but still the same) and the stock cable. I haven't installed any apps that could drain battery. Also no red "X" on the battery icon when charging. I've got all the updates installed (I didn't get any in the last year or even more). I'm running android 4.1.2 (branded) without any root and mods.

Hello,
I am using u 11 about 2 weeks. There was no problem but last night i plugged the phone to charger when i woke up it had still %18 power. the graph about battery is down below.
i replugged it and it charged normally
what can causes problem like this? it happened one more time but i didnt care about now it is second time so should i worry about it?
Btw i cleaned the charger and the phone right after first time happened. i think it is not dust problem and also it is 2 week phone.
original adaptor and cable.

I've had the same problems and I think the internal plug is going bad, I've had mine about 2 months now and don't want to send it in because I don't think it should be going out already, but I might be left with no alternative
My phone charges bad to. With all the different cords I use, they all started to fall out at times. Poor usb port in phone.
