Dirt inside socket. Grab needle and scrape everything inside around connector. Had this problem few months ago.

Just got the battery warning so I plugged it in and to my surprise nothing happened ... checked the plug, restarted.. it just won't charge . When I turn screen off and plug it in the screen turns on but it doesn't charge .. is it busted?

Are you plugged into a wall socket? If you are trying to charge through USB from a computer, it won't charge unless in sleep mode. Even then it will charge slowly.
Plugged into a wall socket atm.. iv tried from a computer I don't get a charging icon like I used 2

this will sounds bad but.... check the usb connection to the plug, as the way its made you can actully push the usb into the plug the wrong way around....
Tried all plugs don't work and yes its the right way round

Just got it from Amazon and I have the same issue and still not able to figure out how to fix it. My Transformer is lying there without charging. Planning to return it to Amazon.
Right I just got mine working... try this pull the plug apart and put it back together now squueze them together as tight as you can and try that. Its working for me now ..

It just doesn't work. How is the usb cable connected to your adapter? It just gets in both ways.
Can you send me a picture of how the three parts are fit into each other?
its only suppose to go in one way, just like conncting any USB devices. But tried that, dissemble the adaptor and put them together, it actually happened to me once too, did exactly that and everything fixed. Remember you gotta squeeze pretty hard to put the two pieces together.
Thanks guys, its working. But this is ridiculous, you have to do a dumbbell roll to fix battery plug
i cant get it too charge and i just got it in the mail. why the hell it even come with this wack ass plug in the first place. what a horrible first impression!
I suggest you dont even use it, its dangerous. Mine melted the first day I got it. I went to bestbuy and got a replacement that works great. It charges at 11 volts/1.5 amps

Yes, I had this problem with mine too.
It seems to be a common issue:

This seriously works?
I just hope the voltage is right... I've tried different adapters for my phone and then my phone started acting weird (like it didn't take calls and would freeze at times). Replaced the adapter and it returned to normal again.
My TF adapter also gets really hot when charging.
Thanks for the recommendation.
I put some petroleum jelly on the metal prongs and smashed it on the counter a few times AFTER snapping it in.
Unfortunately I did them at the same time and didn't test in between so i don't know which if either or possibly both fixed it but mine is finally ****ing charging.
What a headache. I'm really bothered by ASUS for issuing such a faulty component.
I'm probably going to pick up that dynex tomorrow, because I just KNOW this will break again and mysteriously lodge itself into my drywall.
I just had the problem and discovered that the 5 forward pins on the power adapter are apparently quite easily deformed.
The charger is dual output, 5v and 15v.They use a USB3 connector, with the 15v quick charge output on those pins. I expect that they use the old USB 2 pins behind them to supply 5v for a slow charge, and PC data/charge connection.
Just prior to this, I had tried using an extension USB3 cable on it, so that I could use it while charging, and I suspect that was just enough to deform a couple of the 5 pins in the charger, and I got no charge at all from it, even after putting it back to normal. After an hour, the charger was still cold, and no indication of charging on either the tablet or with the table and keyboard attached.
With a good light and strong magnifier, I could see that a couple of the pins (of the 5 in the front) looked a bit recessed compared to the others, and carefully used the tip of a very fine needle to lift all of them just slightly. Having done that, the charger came to life when I plugged it back in, and the TF is indicating that it is charging.
I don't know how solid or permanent the fix will be, but it is working for me now.
Hello all xda members!
Well about 2 weeks ago I tripped over my charger and my Xoom fell off my desk....right on the wimpy pin that charges the Xoom. It didn't break but it bent pretty bad and would only charge if I put pressure on it; because it had a small crack in the shell of the pin. Well....today I put some solder around the shell and it worked pretty well....until it got a couple wiggles and didn't charge again....so,more solder, and some more.....and more until I noticed the plastic on the pin melted....whoops hahah. So I cut the end off the cord because I was pissed. Now I have a charger with + and - coming out....I tried to find a pin charger the same size laying around...but no luck.
So I was thinking since my charger is screwed can I make my own dock charger using the two gold contacts at the bottom?
Here's a picture of my idead
Also I need to know what gold plate is + and what is -

If I am understanding correctly - Your Xoom is fine right?
If yeah, just get another Dock from EBAY. If I'm wrong
my bad. I see you like the DIY way.
OK good new, I found the polarity. It goes / USB - HDMI - ground - 12v /

Yea my xooms fine. Just the skimpy little pin charger broke. So I gotta make my own dock
OK so after being highly frustrated And a mixture of chronic boredum. I decided to use my skills to build my own dock. Took me about an hour and a half. But here's what I got.

Looks good, can we get a close up of the charging/dock pins
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
Sure, I only integrated the charging pins for now since that's all I needed but tomorrow I might integrate my homemade OTG cable that would be neat.

Sorry to bring this dead thread back to life, but my charger just bit the dust on my xoom and I was looking at doing something similar to this, cut the end off and convert the charger into a dock. What did you use for the charging pins in the last picture?
Thanks!

are you UK based?
i have a few spare chargers... happy swap you one for beer money?
so literally a few minutes ago i plugged in my charger into the wall and smoke came out of the microusb(the one i got with the phone) side and then from smoking went to burning, i just wanted to know if anyone else has had this problem.
Can you tell if the end that started smoking was damaged? Is there a chance two wires crossed causing a short circuit? I have personally not heard of that problem on any phone, but have seen it on miscellaneous equipment throughout my life due to short circuit.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
yea
the tip of the microusb is burned and some on the back there is a black burn spots.
USB cables they supply with phones are usually crap. Thanks for the reminder,unplugged mine and replaced it with a good one I got from Monoprice. I'd keep an eye on it though if you use another cable to be sure the charger didn't cause it.
The voltage in your plug might be too high... it could have been a faulty cable
Sent from my SGH-I535 using xda premium
yea im going to replace the cable and the charger just to be safe.
a few days back my phone started to charge slower and gradually it stopped charging at times. It only charged if i moved/bent it or keep it supported on some object.
It worked fine with Nokia Lumia800 cable so i bought a new cable today but have the same problems.What can be the problem here ?
Try sharpening a toothpick so it will fit in your phone's usb slot, then gently move it around in there and scrape out anything that could be in there. Over time dust and lint will accumulate in there which could cause a poor connection, which could in turn cause charging problems. Just be very careful so that you don't break anything. The nokia cable might be slightly different and that's why it would work and the other's wouldn't.
If you have an air compressor I would use that or some type of high out put air and blow inside the input for the charger

It's also possible that something has cracked. In that case, from now on be very careful when inserting/removing the cable. You may need to apply gentle pressure on the cabke in 1 direction during charging.

onnector charge jack
I don't think this is the perfect post, but I don't find anything else...
I've broke my connector charge jack...any idea how I can charge my phone?!(lg Optimus One)
go to service shop
In my case the phone is not charging wirelessly. Anyone has the same issue?
EDIT: Nvm found the solution. Apparently the coil is slightly off from the car charger position. Just need to insert the phone from top and it will have contact. 20W charging.
Same problem here. I put in from the top and it charges for a bit but when the phone slides down it doesn't. Thinking about put something at the bottom of the charger so the phone stays up a bit.

I am using it on my mi 10 ultra too. i added some padding under the the holder to make it higher but also make it more unstable.
