Yesterday I missed a call because screen didn't respond on touch, I was blaming on tithering (which by the way had rebooted phone twice today), but today I've noticed when this happens and I unplug the phone, it instantaniosly fixes the screen (and buttons as well), plugging it back in, freezes it. Was playing with it for a minute just to make sure..
Anyone experiencing anything like this?
P.S.
Installed "CPU Guage" which shows cpu load in real time in tasks bar, I can see the numbers changes but nothing above 30%, so it wasn't CPU overload
i haven't had that, until about 2 minutes ago. funny this was posted just now, i just logged in to post about it, lol. but my phone has been fine, until just now. i plugged it in and when to change it to mass storage mode and it wouldn't respond. then it was kind of weird when it started responding. it eventually worked, but took a couple of swipes.

i also notice that when unplugged, i get around 44-45 linpack, plugged in, around 35
Nope, just tested it, plugged to the wall I could answer a call normally.
it might be because of short circuit, check ur charger or charge with another charger or cable see if it happen again.
I have it too. Anytime its plugged in it will be super laggy and/or freeze.

I haven't seen this issue on the Atrix 2 yet, but both my Samsung Moment and Samsung Epic would have screen responsiveness issues while plugged in, so it is behavior I have seen in other Android devices.
I havent had this problem. When I go to bed I put my phone on the charger, wall type, and will usually mess around on the phone for a little while before setting it down for the night. Not once has it given me this problem.

I don't have this problem all the time either, it happened only twice in two days. Just now checked it again - no problem whatsoever...
Perhaps if we trace what is running and/or what was running before this happens, we could figure something out.
Today I was using pandora, sportypal (which by the way consumes 40% cpu at times, on Atrix 4G never had this problem) and then after these two apps where closed I used mobile hotspot.
On background two apps are always running: battery cyrlce and nettraffic (there are many more apps started but they seems to be inactive, like skype which doesn't log me in automatically)
Oh and it could make difference, I use ADWLauncher EX
I don't have any of these problems. Get up every morning and check missed calls, emails, texts and FB notifications all while being plugged into the charger. Had someone call me and I answered it on speaker phone to make sure I didn't have any problems receiving a call while plugged in either
No problems so far, but I am completely stock. Phone was purchased on the Nov. 11th
wow, just had it happen.
Don't have this problem either but I am completely stock also.

I don't seem to have this problem in the morning either, I notice it at about 11am - 1pm
Today I've killed every apps that was running (excluded services), but it didn't help at all. I still suspect mobile hotspot though, it doesn't work properly...client's get disconnected, then would not able obtain IP.
OEM charger and cable only
Make sure you are using ONLY the OEM charger and OEM cable to charge your phone. They provide an extra ground path not normally supplied which is needed by your capacitive touchscreen to function normally. A "normal" micro USB cable or USb charger does not provide this.

I have a charger by my bed, a charger in my work van, a charger at my desk at work and a charger on my pc....of all those, only the one by my bed is the oem charger and the oem cord, my phone works perfectly on all of them.
Ok, it has nothing to do with the type of charger, it even happens when connected to PC as storage or charge only. Changing cables also have no affect.
Me too

I had this happen A LOT! Happened almost always with one particular charger, rarely happened when hooked up to computer USB port. Never happened in car using Griffin iPad car charger.
This was one of the frustrating things about the phone for me. Just sold, and have Galaxy Note on the way.
Hey people I have this similar issue... was searching xda for anything like this but seems this is the only place there is some issue like this happening...
I have a Galaxy S2 Running Cyanogen7 ...
Now here's what IV noticed... on stock charger I have no issues at all... nor when plugged into the PC... just today it happened and I was using a iPhone charger with a OEM Samsung USB cable... it was charging fine but the screen just wouldn't respond... as soon as unplugged would be fine... so... I'm thinking it's this charger maybe giving too much power to the phone... as my stock charger is 750ma while the iPhone one is 1A... that's the farthest IV been able to think... :s

motorola contacted me to send them my phone and car dock, and they would swap them with new units so they can use mine with testing. you should go to the motorola atrix 2 owners forums and talk to mark
I've owned this phone for roughly 36 hours. I noticed last night (which is the first night owning the phone) that when the phone is charging, it doesn't seem to acknowledge my finger touching the screen. Since the phone was new, the only apps downloaded at the time were:
Lets Golf 2
Angry Birds
Tiny Bee Demo and,
AVG Anti-Virus
Things to note:
I did download the 3 games before the anti-virus program, so the possibility of a virus is there, but not likely.
I also didn't delete any apps or change any major settings that might cause the problem.
One other odd thing I noticed, I was in the middle of a text when I plugged in the charger, and that somehow made it insert a letter. I thought it was odd so I made sure it wasn't me touching the screen and tried it again, and it typed two other random numbers.
I hope this helps somebody somewhere find the fix to this problem... :cool
Edit: I have an Atrix 2

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!
http://bobmckay.com/i-t-support-net...charging-problems-charging-paused-repeatedly/
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.
Cheers
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.
(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.)
Hi all,
I have modified my T295 to run directly off of the 12V in my car.
Basically I got a Buck LM2596 3A Step Down converter and dialed it in to exactly 4.0V to mimic a almost fully charged Li-Ion battery and hooked it up directly to the battery terminals, skipping the tiny board that comes with the battery. In other words, straight to the mainboard.
The tablet works perfectly as a car stereo connected to the Bluetooth Amp and doesn't have any problem, but once every 3 days or so it suddenly shuts off. Sometimes I enter in my car and it's already off and sometimes I'm driving, it suddenly gets a completely black screen and then shuts off. I can turn it on immediately after, but sometimes I need 2-3 tries.
Maybe it's kernel related and triggers some sort of brownout? But this doesn't make sense to me, since I can stress it and it doesn't turn off.
It's Android 9, rooted, debloated and decrypted in case this helps
Thanks for any advice!
