Hi there,
So just some observations...
When I use the wireless charging pad (TYLT VU) the phone will constantly BEEP BOOP and the screen turns on to say wireless charging paused it will then turn off after a few seconds.
I've read in other forms this could be due to overheating etc.... but in touching the phone it's not hot.
This is annoying... And... no current fix I can find to stop it.
Borrow another wireless charger (or go to a Starbucks or something) to see if it's the device.
If not, you might have a damaged charging pad.
I've been getting a lot of "wireless charging paused" messages as well. I have my phone on my desk, streaming audio, and it occasionally turns on and that messages comes up, and then it immediately starts charging again...hmmm...
I have 8 pads around my house, all the Nokia D900s that they gave away with the Lumia 920s. Last night I experienced this for about... 15 seconds or so. I readjusted the phone and it worked fine thereafter. Sucks that the beeping woke us up at 5am though.
I don't think it's my pad, it happens on both.
I think positioning could be part of the cause?
Oh well...
Again, just observations I'm seeing.

I'm having the same problem on my S6 Edge. I have a couple TYLT chargers and they work perfectly fine with my Nexus 5, Nexus 6 and Nexus 7's... both work flawlessly with those. But they both fail to work properly with the S6.
I'm pretty disappointed with this. Anyone got any ideas or know of a similar shaped charger that works with the S6? I really don't want to go back to my Nexus 6 due to the size, but having the phone beeping and flashing all night trying to charge is unacceptable.
My regular S6 was doing this last night. I wonder if it has something to do with the camera sticking out and not letting the phone lay flat?
I don't like charging it with the USB because I know the frame will get all scratched up eventually.
Running into the same problem with my T-Mobile S6. After setting it on a new 3 coil charging pad, the phone looks to be taking the charge, then once the screen times out and turns off, it will vibrate, turn back on, and display "Wireless Charging Paused".

On my Qi-infinity stand, it actually does lay flat as the charging pad ends just below the camera, so I don't think that's the case here.
Update: So I've managed to solve my problem by changing the wall adaptor from an old 1A Motorola plug to a 1.5A version and it's currently charging without troubles. Switch back just to confirm and within seconds, it starts giving me trouble again. I guess the S6 is picky about the power levels? *shrugs*

I was having the same issues. It turned out I was getting my monies worth out of the $5 walmart special I was using. I ended up getting a 3 coil charging pad and now it charges just fine. Nary a hiccup.
Link to 3 Coil Charger I'm using
everyone remember to use a 2A (possibly 1.5 amp input is also okay) charger. the output will be ~1A. This was the solution to many of the cheaper wireless chargers on ebay/amazon. Just one more thing to check!

CHECK THIS LINK GUYS
Best Solution
In the last solution, turning on Daydream will let the phone's screen on unless you turn it off.
Another better solution is to enter developer mode and turn ON StayAwake. Same effect of daydream but without the annoying on screen.

I had my phone freeze when charging, the screen would be of, when i would hit the power button the phone would not wake up, I would have to take the battery out to turn it back on, Any one else experiencing this? Its happen 3x to me already
I guess i am one of the lucky people i have yet to have any problems other then alittle bit of lcd bleeding. My phone is running great. I would tell you to keep an eye one it. If you bring it into a store will they need exchange it for u unless the problem is going on right the store. It could also just be something with android as well.
Probably bad grounding circuitry in the charger or phone.

I have had it happen twice, and once I found my phone stuck in boot loop forcing me to do a hard reset.
Just happened to me. Never happened to my G1 while charging in the same place
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA Premium App
Its happened a total of 8 times for me (My 3rd day with the phone). First time I was late to work because the alarm didn't go off.
Always when I charge via a wall charger. Have tried the LG charger with LG usb cable, oem usb cable, blackberry charger. They all freeze my phone. I've noticed that every time it happens, my phone gets real hot, often times when i get a text in while its plugged in it freezes. The only way I can charge the phone without it freezing was through a usb port on my computer. Don't know if its an issue with the charger or the phone, but this is annoying
O and I've looked at the LG O2X forums too, it seems like they are having the same issues too, freezes and bleeds
It's happening to my "replacement" g2x. I have to pull out the battery to get it working again.

Could be a combined hardware/software problem with battery charging, which also explains the poor battery life many experience.
When charging via wall adapter I wouldnt doubt if it is going into thermal shutdown and the battery is getting too hot, pushing too many amps too quickly....usb connected to your computer fixes that issue since it cannot push that much current.
Sounding more and more like LG did something bad here.
I have never had this happen.
I use the included charger, a nook charger, and the charger for the HD7.
All have worked perfectly fine. I would definitely keep an eye on your heat.
I've had at least six reboots and a few of the black screen shutdowns where the battery has to be pulled.

Yea I think it really is heat related. Using battery monitor widget, I found that the last few times my phone froze up while charging, the temp was hovering above 35 celsius, seen it hit 39.8

Those temps aren't bad. I have seen up to 45c while charging and using wifi tether and I haven't got a force reset.

I had this exact issue; plugged in, got a text and it froze, requiring a battery pull. I also noticed it got really hot. Interestingly, I had received a bunch of texts prior just fine while plugged in. The last text I received was repeated three or four times and then I got a notification about what appears to be the SMS app hanging (I forget the exact package name but I know it had SMS or MMS in it).
I have had my g2x for about 3 days and this problem has occurred on mine about 3 times so far.
The first time it happened i pressed power button several times, also tried holding it down. After about a min of messing with it. i actually got the screen to light up with the lock screen by holding down power button and up volume. but once i let go of buttons screen blanked out again. i was unable to reproduce it again. so i pulled the battery.
Having the same issue here. I'm on my second G2x (exchanged the first one because of lcd bleeding). Had the phone for 2 days, and I've had 2 freezes with blank screen and one reboot while charging thus far.
Interestingly, both times I encountered the phone freeze with blank screen were when I've completely discharged the battery and the phone was off when I plugged in the charger. After I plugged in the charger, i turned on the phone, and about 20-30 minutes later, i'd get the blank screen phone freeze.
The other time my phone rebooted while charging was when I plugged in the charger with the phone at around 75% battery.
I think it's because of crappy charger or cable. I don't have difficalities at home with the original ones but in the office the touchscreen of my Motorolla Photon freezes.
Its the kernel. My Transformer will do the same thing on certain kernels. I haven't had it once while on MIUI and Faux, and I went through 2 phones.
LG G2x - 2.3.5 MIUI
Asus Transformer - 3.2 Revolver
Hey there!
My Nexus 5, after updating it to 4.4.3, is having a issue: the device is charging only when it is turned off. When I turn the phone on, while charging, it will remain charging. But if I connect the charger, when the phone is already turned on, it will not charge.
I have tested 2 different cables, same issue.
Is anyone else having the same problem? How to fix it?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Just for clarification: I'm using Kit Kat 4.4.3, rooted, Xposed.
what are you charging from? ac or pc?
AC!

Another question, are you using the stock wall wart? Some aftermarket chargers don't put out enough amperage. Another possibility is that you've got some rogue processes keeping your phone awake so it's using battery as quickly (or quicker) than it can take in a charge.
I'm using the AC charger that came with my Nexus 5.
Updated to 4.4.4. Problem not solved.
I think it might be a hardware issue. I have the same problem with my pebble. I have tried multiple cables/chargers and it only charges when it's off. When it's on I get the charging notification but it doesn't actually charge
Nothing. The devide is still charging only when it is turned off.
Having the same issue since update 2 weeks ago. Already wiped phone and problem still exist. Start to think it's hardware but tried 2 different charger same issue.
So guys I am almost the same problem since this morning. I went on a 3 day trip to the Netherlands on Friday and charged my phone in the car for the last time on friday. I died on me this morning. While I was on the way back today and my N5 was in it's last percents of battery I noticed it wouldnt charge anymore. I thought fastcharging might have killed my car radio. Now back home I tried to charge it. For some reason the charging while off screen reapeared as soon as it turned off. Whenn I turned it on again it stopped charging. Tried rebooting multiple times. My phone now only charges while being in Fastboot or Recovery mode. Anybody having any ideas what might have caused this an how to fix this? Cleaning the charger didn't help me.

Hi. Also had this problem a few days now. Alot of headscraching is done
N5 won`t charge when on. Tried my N10 charger, but still the same. With my wireless charger it register the phone when off, but cannot charge it at all. I've also done a factory reset, and even changed the battery. Still no solution. Wondering if the charging port is damaged somehow. It doesn't cost much so maybe I`ll order a new and replace it to. I remember draining the battery more than usual right before this issue acurred. I was hiking, and din`t bring my portable charger. Also it could be some kind of water damage. Had the phone in my pocket all the time, it was not raining, but I got pretty sweaty:-9 Never had any issue with my stock Nexus 5 up till now. Don`t think this i a common problem, when this is the only place I've found others with this issue I`ll order the charging port, keep on searching on forums, and take it from there.
Good luck
I'm having the same problem on my Nexus 5 now as well. When on, it won't charge via micro-usb (via original charger or USB-to-PC), nor will it charge wirelessly. When turned completely off, it charges, but at GREATLY GREATLY reduced speed. It seems to be stuck in a loop as it it's just been plugged in. It cycles continuously through the lightning-bolt battery image, followed by the charge percentage graphic. The screen blinks, then it starts again. I suspect that it only charges for a moment or two before each reset. For example, it only charged about 20% over the span of six hours last night.
I've tried four chargers and four USB cables, and of course both wireless and wired charging. It's something with the hardware I suspect.
Anyone have any suggestions? It looks the the factory wipe upthread didn't help...
Charging spare part
I am having same problem too. I'm guessing it's because of water damage. Where did you find the charging part? I'm thinking of ordering one for myself to see if the problem is fixed!

Having the same problem now too. Won't Qi or USB charge from OEM charger and cable while powered on.
Appears to be charging fine while powered off.
Did anyone come up with a resolution?
Hi, i keep getting continual issues with my wireless charger.
there are 2 main issues i keep getting:
when i put my phone on the wireless charger quite often i will have to place it on the charger twice for some strange reason, this has happened for a long time now, if i place it on once, often nothing happens, so i then have to take the phone off the charger then place it back on and it will then realise its on and start charging.
The second issue i keep getting a lot is, sometimes when i place the phone on the charger it may start charging and then instantly say charing has been paused, then instantly start charging again, then instantly pause again and so on.....
Often i have to restart my phone to get it to charge properly, sometimes even after a restart it still does the same thing and i end up giving up and just plugging the cable directly in.
Does anyone else have the above issues or know how to solve them?
Is it a dodgy charger?
Thanks
James

I had the same issue with my previous s6 edge and found that setting on the screensaver in display allowed the wireless charging to function proprerly even tho doing this turned my phone into a hot one.
Then I discovered that (I don't know which kind of wireless charger you own, I have a samsung one (ep-pg9201) with a green/violet ring on the base with green in idle state and violet when charging) when the charging state is turned off and the screen displays "charging has been turned paused", moving a bit the phone or rotate it until the ring turn violet resumes the charging process.I just didn't need screensaver anymore.
I've replace my s6 edge by a s6 edge + and I'm still in the process of calibrating the battery but I found that usb charging is damned too slow, taking ages (4, 5 hours to gain 20% of battery) so I've not try yet wireless charging but only fast charging. I just hope the guy who sold it to me didn't screw up the battery and it's lifespan.
Anyway, on my S6 edge I've managed to reach 4 days on a battery charge, I' not sure I'll reach this with the edge + as this phone has real issues in that department.
Hello guys!! So i just bought a Galaxy Gear S2 Sport (bluetooth only), and well, it obviously gets warm while charging as any other device, but what puzzles me is that, after charging overnight, when the watch is already 100 after a few hours, it keeps being warm while in the craddle. Is this normal? I can't find any info about it :/
I just recently got a gear s2 as well, and have noticed the same thing.
I played around with few things, and found, at least in my testing, using a wall charger of 1amp or less seemed to help with the heating up.
Also, turning on the "do not disturb" setting before placing it on the charger also helped a bit, as it prevented the screen from automatically turning on when it sensed something (vibration maybe?). All I know is it would turn the screen on whenever anyone got close to watch)
It didn't go away completely, but it was less. Maybe it had something to do with the wireless charging system?
(I also posted this over to Reddit, but I figured I'd have a home for this on XDA too.)
I haven't heard any other reports of this, so I wanted to start with this here, to see if anyone else has seen this -- or to have a place to go if other people start noticing this.
My Pixel 2 (walleye) has been overheating occasionally while charging recently. Here's the rough timeline of it:
About a week and a half ago, I woke up during the night, went to check the time, and my phone was really really hot. I unplugged it and plugged it back in and it was fine. (In this case, I was using a SHIELD Tablet charger with a A->C cable.)
A few days later, I again woke up in the middle of the night a few hours after I went to sleep, and again found that it was incredibly hot. I unplugged it and plugged it back in, and it said "Charged" instead of "Charging", even though it only was at 78%. I tried unplugging and plugging it back in a few times, and eventually I rebooted it and got to charge again. (This is with the stock charger.)
Last Friday, I woke up an hour or so after I had set my alarm, and my phone was powered off (when I hit the wake button, it was at the bootloader charging "big battery" screen). Powering it on, I got the message "Phone turned off due to heat. Your phone is now running normally" as a notification. (Stock charger)
This morning, I woke up again to my Pebble's alarm instead of my phone's, with the phone at the "big battery" screen. When I tried to power it on, I got a red LED; I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in a few times, and ultimately had to press and hold the power button to turn it all the way off, then plug it back into the charger. When I booted the phone, it was at 0% of a tank of battery, and again gave me the "turned off due to heat" warning. I looked in the Sleep as Android logs, and it says that I slept from 22:36 to 1:29, when the phone presumably crashed, for 2h40m from plugging it in to the phone getting hot enough that it powered down (and then drained the rest of its battery!). (This was with the SHIELD charger.)
Anyway, Google support did an advanced RMA today (and they mentioned that I would not be dinged for having cracked the antenna glass), so I think all shall be well that ends well. But I'd be curious to hear if anyone else has had this happen, and if it's gotten progressively worse for you like it has for me...
Mine too!
Mine has done this a couple of times too! Given that it's only 6 weeks old, I'm a little annoyed.
Last night I plugged it in using the cable that came with it and this morning it was hot like the sun. I unplugged it and turned it off until it cooled down, and when I turned it on the battery was down to 86 %. I checked the battery settings and it said its last full charge was 8 minutes ago and that none of the apps had used any battery.
Pixel 2XL set on fire
I first enjoyed the new Pixel. Everything was fine - face recognition works even at night, it did not bog down when using complex Apps, the design of the phone pleased me a lot.
However, all those features became useless when my phone set itself on fire. I travelled to another country where they use 220 Volts - in Australia we have 110 Volts
One night I woke up with the room full of smoke and quickly realised that something was wrong..... My phone overheated, and released an incredible amount of smoke then set on fire, my mattress was damaged and the charger melted with the phone. I quickly unplugged the charger and opened the windows. They don't have fire alarms where i was staying- not in my room, anyway.
I have to admit that I used Samsung A3 charger (however the A3 charger outputs the standard 5 volts and 1 or 2 amps that most smart phones use and is rated between 100-240 Volt input) - not original Google Pixel charger, but there should be something inside the phone that would have stop it from overcharging like in most other phones.
So i now have a burnt mattress, my phone is now completely ruined and has melted the Samsung A3 original charger. Now more than a month of going back and fourth with JB HI-FI and Google. Both Google and the store deny liability at this stage despite multiple reports of the Pixel 2XL setting on fire. Communication has been terrible as well. On my 4 attempt to contact the store I got only 1 informative call back.

Not sure where you came up with that, Australia uses 240v, not 110v. Good luck trying to get your problem sorted out though.

I notice that 2 of the 3 reports here are not using the original charger, and are using A->C cables. Bad A->C cables can be risky for charging (not all have a particular resistor that's needed to do this safely), so I wonder whether the cable could be an issue in either of these?

Indonesia uses the same mains voltage as Australia (220/230/240 doesn't matter). You may have had dodgy electrics in the hotel or something like that, no way we can know.
I wish when the phone overheats, people would look at the battery in Settings, tap the graph if you need to, and look for any sudden drop to zero (then an immediate rise back to, or to almost, the level it was at before dropping. This is the sign of a dendrite in the battery, and a thick enough one could cause the battery to burn. (https://www.google.com/search?q=lithium+battery+dendrite&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8 if anyone is interested in dendrites, and you'll notice that a fix has probably been developed, although we most likely won't see it for a few years.)
If Google gets enough reports of dendrite growth in their batteries, they may just decide to specify someone else's battery. (I don't think they want to be known as the company that produced the second coming of the Note 7.)
