[Q] Battery temp too low and not charging

Hi All,
I have this problem of the tab not charging,
Was searching all week and had no luck. Seems like a common problem among phones especially on SGS and SGS2.
When it was on , it showed a message saying charging paused Battery temp too hot or cold.
Now the battery is drained, and when charged to the mains, it would show a yellow triangle, and a thermometer.
See picture attached..

Just wondering if anybody had any luck figuring out why this is happening and any work around?
Just to rule things out, Tab had not been in any wet places...

service manual
I was going through the service manual and it was saying,
"If the battery will no longer charge, completely you need to replace it with a new battery. Take you device to your local service centre.."
Thoughts?..

Well first if you still got factory warrenty...
get it fixed by samsung...
If you want to save a few dollars you could attempt to pry the screen out from the back cover and charge the battery externally then if thats a NO GO buy another battery online and then put it back together.
Ive read before with charging problems that if teh battery gets completely Flat it wont have enough charge in it to activate the charging circuits.eg when you plug in charger you get black secreen and no battery icon,you need to pop the screen out and remove the battery and charge it from a external source.then replace it.
Never seen anything about your particular problem though...

I will enquire to Samsung, not expecting much because, tab7.7 was never officially launched in Aust.
Ho do you go about charging, externally?

Try plug in wall charger for 30 mins then hold power button for 15 seconds.This is good for waking it out of deep sleep and getting it to trigger charge.
another thing is possible fix from factory reset in twrp?
i would try a few things like this and leave opening it up as a last resort.
for your info google how to open up galaxy tablet and you can find pics
how to prise the screen out of the back cover.ive bought tools for this but havent done it yet as worried about damadging screen or cracking it.
there are clips around it and you have to pop the clips out.
Australia samsung probly wont fix it as not australian model..

another thing to ry is charge using ipad 2ma charger...

Experienced exactly the same issue in May 2013. It was functioning well and charging without problem all along and suddenly turned out like this. Tried different method to have it charged but no luck. I have to bring it back to the service center for repair finally.

Did the Samsung guys tried to explain anything about this?
What did they replace? Did they just replace a battery?
Please let me know.

Galaxy GT-N5110 Note 8.0 - Charging paused...battery temperature too low...
I purchased a Galaxy Note 8.0 (GT-N5110) last July. It's been working great until yesterday when a window popped up stating "Charging paused. Battery temperature too low."
I tried shutting the Note down and charge the battery whilst turned off. It seems to be charging just fine at the moment. Will check it in a few hours when the battery has been fully charged.
I installed an app called Battery Monitor Widget. It's reporting that the battery temp is around -2c to -4c while charging.
UPDATE: Battery is charged @ 100% and the Note is still on AC power. Battery Monitor is reporting that the battery is -3.7c then to -5.9c...
My next test is to completely drain the battery and see about charging then.... Will keep you posted...
Can't post screenshots for now...
Skol!

UPDATE: Now on battery, the battery temperature is reporting at -4.7c...

I some how fixed it by accident..
First I thought it was a faulty battery only to realise that replacing the battery did not work...
Next I followed one of the remedies I read where it said to connect the charger to the unit with the wall charger connected and connect the battery (there is a ribbon cable).
Some how it worked. Started charging etc.
I noticed that the battery had full charge as I had it plugged in for a whole night before when i was experiencing the TEMP too low symptoms.
It seemed as if it was charging all along but was showing that stupid error on the surface...
Hope this helps some people.

Have this issue with one of my S4's (fortunately I have a couple so can swap things about)
The phones had a life of luxury on my desk, except it suddenly started reporting 'battery temperature too low' issue and not charging
The same battery in another S4 is absolutely fine, so the battery itself is ruled out (and indeed 2 other batteries will not charge in the unit having problems, despite working fine in other S4's)
It seems that something has died in the S4 itself internally. and is likely going to require replacement/fix at a service centre.
How many other people have this? - it could be an issue with the device build.

battery issue

I bought one+ two months ago everything fine but since yesterday I have battery drain very fast issue. I charge phone to 99%(don't know why but can't charge to 100%) I do nothing from 99% drop to 80% in half hour.anyone have same problem before there is anyway to fix it or where can I call one+ company for repair? ?

Is it normal that my 'cell standby' is always over 90%. I'm on 5.0.2. Thanks.

Please do the following first and then report if unsolved
Charge your battery first till 95%+ battery
Restart your device
Now use your device
Let it go down till 5% battery
Please do not plug the charger or usb in between this cycle
Then check if your issue is solved or not.

Hello,
Can you please elaborate issue?

More in depth description of the problem
I Purchased a NOTE EDGE Used about 2 weeks ago, I was told the problem was a generic battery causing the phone to overheat, I bought A New battery which somewhat solved the overheating problem however upon using the phone even with a new battery I noticed there still is significant battery drain in a short time. Also When the phone is completely off the battery still drains at a fast rate, If plugged in the battery doesn't die but charges extremely slowly even with a rapid charger and rapid charge activated. Another Issue that I have is when I remove the battery the phone will not turn back on once its back inside unless plugged in and when I connect by usb to the computer it shows connected on the phone and on the computer but in programs such as Odin it doesn't show up unless I remove and re install the battery multiple times I've done all I can think of to fix this ( bought a new battery, tried re flashing the firmware, Shut off all unused apps and turned off all data Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, dimmed the screen, battery saver etc.. ) the phone drains regardless even when phone is completely powered down.

sounds like a PCB having a problem. Maybe the charging circuit

N.m. just googled it

After I updated to 6.0.1 update on my note edge , once the battery reaches 49% it just turns off , it doesn't turn on , while I put it for recharge the battery charge shows 49% and it turns on.
I have done 3 factory resets still the problem arise. I did factory reset to clear cache and to clear any errors in apps. This is my primary phone for work and I need to carry power bank all the time. Please assist

Time to change the battery. It is not about the percentage of the battery. It is more about that the voltage breaking. As it seems the battery can not longer hold its voltage due to battery age. When the voltage breaks, the device will automatically shut down to due low voltage

From what I notice is something is wrong, mine started to act weird earlier after I updated a latest ota firmware, before when I charge its take only maybe less then a hr to full charge, I did a factory reset now its take two hr to full charge, now monitor again

My battery went to hell also after this update and I just got a new one a few months ago

the only solution i see is to stop buying original battery replacment since it might not be the issue , rather slap a zerolemon 9000 mah battery on , it looks like a tank but at least the battery last lol.

Im still having trouble with mines too, injust dont understand why phone is draining battery while off and fast . You ciuld feel the heat off the phone while off...

Maybe you should try to get an extended battery pack? here's what i tried - so far so good! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i70xqUNoYVE

Poco f2 pro charge only to 89%

Hello guys,i bought poco f2 pro global a week ago.My problem is the follow:
When i put my phone for charging the process go to 89% and freeze there.if i disconnect and connect again the charger then its make it 100%!?u can wait 5 h but no more than 89%.
Its very anoyning ,coz when i got to bed i put the phone on charge and at the morning i get it on 89%.
Factory reset didn't solve it.Any ideas?thx

Try draining the battery to 0%, then let it charge uninterrupted and see if that helps..

Hi if you've seen some of my posts. I got a Poco F2 Pro and on the second day it started showing 1% battery charge all the time. As well as an overheating issue and would close the camera after 5 seconds. Not sure what I did other than turned it off and let it charge a few times. For no known reason it started working fine. That was a week ago, so haven't had the problem occur since.
I'd check while the phone is off what the battery level shows as. If it still shows 89% it might be more serious, otherwise could be a bug

ITs not uncommon a miss-calibrated battery. Make a full discharge, wait all the time until your phone is power off. Once completely drained, try (without charger) power on some times, to be completely sure is totally death. Now, make a complete Full cicle. This time, the phone should reach 100%

Thank you all for the suggestions. I discharged the battery to 0 %,then plug it again and the result was 92%.So no luck..I really hope that this is software bug and will be fixed with miui 12 .Will be very unlucky if my unit is defective.the phone is a week old .what do you think,if i download the present software and flash it , maybe that's will help?

This so called "calibration of the battery" is total BS.
At every boot with at least the latest 4 Android versions it will "calibrate" itself and nothing one can do about it to "trigger calibration" or that kind of stuff.
When the battery won't charge beyond 89% something else is causing it, faulty battery or software related.
Did you unlock your device or is it still locked?
When locked try to manually download the whole rom new from the update menu and reflash it.
Then check if it charges correct of not.

Some devices that I have seen with the same behavior would not think the same as you, obviously with a healthy battery. A bad battery can behave abnormally too, but I doubt that is the case.
And yes, it can be called a ... "calibration", although nothing to do with the supposed magic cures of deleting the battery statistics file. What happens is not that % battery is lost or that the battery is not fully charged. In fact, if the battery is fully charged, it is the count that fails. This is perfectly evident, when the phone reaches 1% it stays in that% much longer than usual, because the phone really did not have 78% (for example) and is not full drained yet. Once the battery is completely drained, the margins are recalculated correctly again. It is not a bad battery that is not fully charged, it is fully charged, what happens is that the battery reports incorrect data due to a "calibration" mismatch.
In any case, the partner will be able to tell us perfectly if it worked, or not . I repeat, there are many phones that I have seen with this behavior and many that have returned to their being. It is clear that if the battery is bad it will continue to be bad. It has happened to me in the past with a pair of Xiaomi phones, the last one a Redmi 6, is not uncommon

Hi
Sorry , i don't have anything intelligent to say about battery calibration (except that if the battery sound faulty, take advantage of the phone warranty while you can!)
So... I just saw @Snah001 had a F2 pro and a Mi 9T pro... Could you please give us your quick opinion and advice here ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f2-pro/help/poco-f2-pro-t4137287
Thanks so much
Cheers !

Slow Charging after MIUI 12 Update

Hello Everyone,
Yesterday, I recieved MIUI 12 Update on my Poco X2 128 GB Variant (India/Global Rom). After updating , the charging time has drastically increased. On MIUI 11 Global rom, It took around 70-75 minutes to charge 0-100%. Now it is taking more than 120 minutes for the same. Although, It is showing fast charging symbol, but not as fast as it used to be on MIUI 11. I'm using the stock charger & cable which came with the phone. Please let me know if :
- Is anyone else facing or faced the same issue ? If yes, then is it going to fix with time or did you find any way to fix it ?
- If I flash official MIUI 11 via fastboot, does it bring back fast charging again ? Does it violates the warranty terms ?
Thanks in Advance

You should try battery calibration. It mostly fixes the software side bugs which relate to charging.
Here are the steps:
1. Charge your phone to 100% without interruption.
2. Discharge your phone fully until it turns itself off (never connect the charger).
3. Turn your phone on a few times to confirm its actually at 0% charge and quickly turnsoff.
4. Plug your phone into the charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen indicator says 100%.
5. Turn on the phone and see that the phone is at 100%, keep the charger connected as long as is needed to reach 100%.
See if this fixes the issue.

Okay, Let me try this. I will let you know if it works or it doesn't.
Thanks for the reply.

Keep phone on a cold surface with no cover and charge again. Warm poco charges slowly.

i found problem charging slow
after update miui 12 i found charging speed slow than usual . i found when screen off then charging speed will speed like normally but when screen on charging speed will decrease about 30-40% from normally speed . i cant find how to disable it . anyone have solution?

Hey there,
I tried all you suggested, but it didn't helped. Then I made a factory reset. Charging speed is better after reset, but it's not as fast as on MIUI11.
It is taking approximately 85-90 minues to charge 0-100. But charging while switch off mode is unaffected. I can fully charge phone in 66 minues.

Yes, warm phone charges slowly, but my phone is at 25 degree C temp. Warm environment is not an issue as well in my case.

It's normal to charge a little slower while screen on. It's not a problem.

Maybe that's another issue in MIUI 12 while charging.
I'm waiting for my bootloader to unlock. Going to try PE or back to stock MIUI11.

Hi, im facing the same issue on my redmi k20 pro since updating with MIUI 12 security patch. the charging speed has decreased drastically, even while showing the fast charging symbol. So much that at times the charge percentage starts decreasing. Has anyone found a fix for it yet?

I am also facing the same issue on my Poco F1. It used to charge to 100% in less than two hours. Now after updating to MiUI 12, it takes more than 4 hours to reach 100. The difference is day and night and I am sure there is something wrong with the update.

Same issue with my Pocof1.
After updating to Miui12, it takes 4 hours to reach 100%.
If only I don't have several files here on my phone, I like to revert back to Miui11. Sigh. So hassle. Waiting for next update and hoping it will be fixed.

Same problem on my Mi11, supposed to be 45mins, but now 90mins with phone on and screen off.

Digging up this old thread.
I updated my A3 to MIUI 12 (android 11) 2 days ago and I can only have slow charging since then.
I use OEM wall adapter and cable, the same cable and adapter worked fine in MIUI 11 (android 10).
Do anyone has a clue to solve this issue?
