its either your charger or wire. ive had it happen on a bunch of phones, and its a fairly common question asked on xda. try a different wall charger and different usb chord, and different plug(in case).

Yup, try using the stock charger. Aftermarket chargers can also cause touch screens issues.

stock chargers as well. ive always had my issues with the chargers that the devices came with.

Wow strange, from all the posts I've read here it seems that it is mostly aftermarket chargers that cause the issues. Regardless, it is definitely a charger issue, but without spending any money OP should use the stock charger he already has before investing in another one.

[Q] blackberry charger?

My dad uses a blackberry bold which uses a micro usb charger just as the NS does. But when I try to use his charger on my phone the screen starts to act a little crazy. Am I the only one to see this kind of problem?

I've had this problem with various third party chargers, seems to be common when the ampage is higher than the stock samsung charger.
I have the NS as a personal phone and the company I work for provides me with a BB Curve. I haven't noticed any problems using either charger with either phone.
Hmm funny.. Thanks though

How does the wireless orb work?

This video shows the phone wasn't charging when it was unplugged
What's the point of having to plug in the wireless orb, isn't it supposed to be wireless
Just confused here

How else you going to get power from the wall?
It charges the phone without wires thus a wireless charger....

Not sure if serious.
It runs on 4 AA batteries. They charge the phone for an hour and then need to be changed.

Nexus 5 charging

The nexus 5's charge has a 5.0v output (correct me if im wrong) so here the question is it ok to charge it with a 5.3v output powerbank?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Yes. Your phone regulates the current supplied to the battery so 5.3v will be fine.
You only risk damage of you go stupid voltages

Honestly, I'd personally play it safe and use the exact charging brick that the phone came with. Even in the Nexus 5 manual LG opposes of the use in using another charger other than the one the Nexus 5 comes with.

I used to use my wife's charger for he xperia z1s but I found that sometimes it would not charge even though it has the same specs so I would watch it and make sure it is charging correctly.

Oem usb cable and after market usb cable

So if I use the original usb cable that came with the device my phone will charge in about 3 or 4 hours. But if i use any after market usb cables it takes 5 to 6 hours I'm trying find our what is the difference between the two cables. Keep in mind I'm using the same oem charger with both cables.

Your stock charger is 2 amps the ones you are using are most likely 1 amp. You need to find other ones that are 2 amps also.
No I'm using the white 2 amp charger. I have narrowed it down to the cable I'm trying to see if there is something diffrent.

Yeah I just read it again my bad. Is the non oem cable skinnier?
Yeah I'm contacting samsung right now trying to understand exactly what makes there usb cable tick. So far all I got is its the next generation of cable.

Charge only cables vs Charge and data cables. Has been thoroughly discussed in the forums. Go buy a charge only cable and you will see the fastest charging. Just don't try to use it for data. Guage of wires also has a lot to do with how much current can be carried.

Original charger charging at half speed?

Recently my original charger only charges at 700ma vs the original 1200-1300 ma before. Now my phone charges half as fast, which is an annoyance but not a huge problem. Anyone got any ideas?

I had the same problem from day 1 when i received the phone. I contacted Google and they wanted me to send them the complete set of phone and box to send me a replacement. I simply used an older usb charger that came with my older phone.
I think its a quality or defect problem.

Just out of curiosity, how are you measuring the current draw?

Really? How do you see the "absolute" input current? I thought bmw only showed the difference between the charge and drain currents...

That is normal and avoids damaging the circuitry
