My nexus 5 started chargning very slowly lately, and it shows that it is charging through USB, altough it is connected to a wall charger.
I tried a different charger/different usb cable - same results.
What can I do?
Maybe it has something to do with the recent 4.4.4 update?
Thanks

well it keeps happening, and I have to plug to phone to a pc everytime for a sec and then back to the wall charger for it to charge in a decent speed....
what can I do?
yeah, I have same problem. my nexus 5 after 4.4.4 update charges veeeery slow. after 2 hours it charges maybe 20% even if the phone is switched off. can someone help? should I do downgrade to 4.4.3?
btw. Im using stock rom, kernel, recovery,etc. no mods at all. stock wall charger which came with my phone and tried other ones with no improvement.
thanks
I doubt it's a software issue, or a hardware issue with the battery. It's probably the cord and/or the charger going bad.
I tried several different chargers/cords(sony,nexus4,htc,samsung) and it was even worse

Ever since 4.4.3 USB charging has been slow. Wireless charging is 2x faster.

Exactly the same problem after 4.4.4 update.

Curious. I've been charging it through the USB/Electrical outlet charger overnight and have yet to hear a beep.
Also, when I plugged in the micro-USB cable to my USB port the charging indicator went on, but even though I left it overnight it didn't charge. Has this happened to anyone else?

I haven't noticed it beep at all. And that seems a bit odd, have you tried using a different charger/charged anything else on that charger?

Yeah, I don't think it beeps when it gets full which might be an oversight. I've never had a phone not do that before.
As far as charging off the USB port, I was trying to charge off a powered USB hub, and the phone clearly indicated it was charging (even though after leaving it was mostly empty). I'll try charging it off my PC's USB port and see if that works- only thing there is that I have to leave my PC on to charge it though.

I'm the opposite -- I've never had a phone that's beeped when it's fully charged. That would be annoying. The Nexus 5 doesn't beep when it's fully charged. If it did, I would find a way to disable it! It would disturb me at night!

I think the beep when charging is a Samsung thing. I had a Galaxy S2 and S3 and they both did it.
I hated that feature so much! It was the only reason I had to mute my phone at night. I'm pretty sure if I plug in my phone over night it will fully charge, I don't need my phone to wake me up in the night to brag about it!
Hi guys, so I have a stock N5 and it won't charge over USB or AC unless the phone is turned off. I've tried to factory reset with no luck.
My current theory is that something's up with android itself, instead of BIOs. Has anybody else experienced anything similar to this?

when I first turned on my N5 and connected it via USB to do various root related stuff, my battery actually went down with each reboot. Even connecting to the AC cable charged it pretty slowly. But now it's charging fine via USB or AC (although the charging speed with USB does seem a lot slower than my previous phone, Galaxy S3)

Yeah, the phone charges over AC slowly here too, but strangely enough it won't even make a USB connection with a computer as your phone did.
Same Problem!
Hi,
I'm having the same problem.. I could use it well and charge it over USB nicely but know it only charges when the phone is turned off. You could solve the problem??
Am having problems charging my nexus 5 since last night.
I reflashed the Kitkat 4.4.4 rom on my nexus 5 from lollipop after i couldn't stand the ram issue lollipop having.
The following night my battery was at 20% and i left it charge overnight and i woke up finding before going work, found that the battery was still charging at 20% .
I tried with the original charger plug and cable and also wireless charging qi nothing charges and phone is losing percentage and have to keep using from the mains to keep the phone on.
When i use the usb cable or qi charger it says charging on screen then it goes not charging.
I tried re flashing 4.4.4 cleared the cache and tried different usb cables and wall plugs the problem still persists.
I replaced the battery beginning of March this year after i had this phone since launch day and new battery was fine.
I believe its either hardware or software problem causing this.
Please any advice or methods i can do to solve this problem would be nice.

That really narrows it down
Did you try charging when the phone is off?
It shouldn't be hardware if all you did was downgrade. The boot loader shouldn't influence it

Yes i have tried charging the phone while the phone was switched off for an hour but it shows battery icon empty and still charging
I'm facing this problem right now. Did you figure it what was wrong and fix it?
Is it possible that there is a loose connection inside the phone? Is the phone recognized when connected to a computer? Maybe a damaged USB port, cable, or charger?
Hy guys, as you can read my phone suddenly started not to charge. One day i was chatting on whatsapp and suddenly the phone turned off with 5% of battery remaining. Since that moment the phone is not charging. I change the battery and the usb port board but it is still not charging. It recognises that the usb cable is plugged in but it doesn't charge... i tried to charge it while in bootloader, recovery or with the phone turned off.. Nothing worked. I don't want to factory reset it since i have 11% of battery holding at that level thanks to the charger. DO you guys have any ideas? thanks....

Try using stock charger and stock usb cable. I also had the issue stock usb cable fixed it.
I am using the stock charger but my stock cable is destroyed. I have another cable that is really good, I have always used it and I tryed also different cables but still not charging... It just can't stop charging from one moment to another because of the cable, that cable is perfectly fine. Thanks anyway Any other suggestion?

I have someway managed to recover my old original cable but even if it says it's charging the battery is always at 0%. Therefore it's not the cable. Any other possible help??
Same problem here.... Changed the charger n cable to capdase... Download ampere app from play store... It works with nexus 5... Check for different cables

I know how these things works and I have already tried different chargers and cable and stock ones as well and it is not a problem of charger or cable. Any other useful suggestion?
Make sure that when you replaced the battery, all the cables were clipped back in right.

Yes thanks but I already checked. That's not the problem.
For the last three months my G920F automatically connects and disconnects from the charger when it is connected to the wired charger. It happens quite oftenly when the battery is charging from 0 to 20 percent and when there are more apps opened i.e. the phone is drawing more current. This connection problem slows down after 20% though. I haven't noticed this on wireless charging. I ve bought a new cable and charger and the problem still persists. The phone will automatically disconnect and connect in a fraction of a second without moving any cable or phone.
So is it a damaged usb port or is it some kind problem with the charging IC? I am using orignal fast charger and cable and i have tried dozen other cables and chargers. Knox is tripped though.

Sounds like it could be the charging port if you have tried different chargers and cables, apart from that you can try flashing a new rom, just remember to back up.

Already tried that. Right now i am on stock marshmallow with space x kernel.
have the same issue since ~3 months. Its happening fitfully and i think about sending it into repair.
I was also using different chargers and cables but the issue still exists. So far the only work around is using wireless charging. I'm on Stock 6.0.1 btw
