I bought a Nokia wireless charger from ATT online store.
It works on my nexus 5, but when the phone is full charged the LED light on the charger is still solid on (on means charging, and blinking means done). However I go to Setting->battery, and it shows battery is full.
My question is which one is right?
-Wireless charger is still charging the phone.
-The system shows battery is full, so the phone won't be charged. But since the charger is Nokia, so it doesn't know my Nexus 5 battery is full.
Thanks in advance
I believe there phone will stop charging the battery buy the charger won't know so it'll keep going. The phone has the circuitry to prevent damage to the phone.

I purchased (2) tylt wireless chargers from kickstarter a while back and I planned to keep the N5 cradled most of the time.
Unfortunately while the chargers work great they also heat the battery to 110 F while charging as compared to around 80 F with a straight USB charger. I'm afraid this heat will eventually kill the battery. Since the battery isn't easily replaceable I've decided to abandon the wireless chargers.
The batteries and the whole device stays hot after its charged and until I pull it off the charger. I didn't notice whether the charge light actually went out on the charger itself after the charge was completed. If I'm brave or (dumb) enough to try it again I'll report back.
Anyone having better luck with the stock wireless charger or other wireless chargers like the Nokia?
I purchased the same Nokia wireless charging pad, and, despite the LED not turning off on the pad, the battery DOES stop charging once it is full.
This can be observed through a battery monitoring app like Battery Widget Reborn. If you look at the battery graph at any point after the battery hits 100%, and before you remove it from the charging pad, you'll notice an even 2 or 3 percent drop and rise at regular intervals. This is the trickle charge mechanism. Once the battery is full, it stops charging, Once the battery drops down to a certain percentage, the charge resumes, and the cycle repeats itself until you take the phone off of the charging pad.
Same here with another brand on wireless charging pad, I think it's normal

Are you not concern with premature battery wear considering now it's not user replaceable? Heat is supposedly not good for battery life.

This really explained me what happens. Thanks !!!
The adaptive fast charger that came with my phone works well with my galaxy s6. Fast charging works well and I can get up to 50% charge in about 25 mins. But the problem is it doesn't charge any other phone apart from galaxy s6. If I plug my htc one or lg g3 or any other phone (even blackberry), it will indicate its charging but won't add any juice. I've tried charging other phones for up to 30 mins, rather than charging the battery % will either stay where it is or sometimes drain. It can't even charge simple things like a modem or even a ps4 controller. I once plugged a ps4 controller and the charging light indicated, but to my surprise after 1 hour of charging it still was not able to add one bar to the battery. In fact if I plug a phone with 2% battery , after 20 mins of charging the phone dies.
I want to know if anyone else have this problem and possible solution, or was this charger designed like this?
Same here. Doesn't charge my Nexus 5. Not a big deal for me though, as I have other chargers.
But sorry, no solution
Noticed it too long ago.
But using other cord with the s6 adapter charger works, atleast in my experience.
I haven't noticed this. I use the same charger and cable to charge my Nexus 5 and my ecig. No issues.
My s8 is slow charging and says to use the original charger and cable but I am using the original. Anyone else having this issue?
never-mind...started working after a reboot.
same issue
my s8 take up to 3 hr to full charge :crying::crying::crying:

It should not take more than 2 hours. If it is saying slow them you've not connected the cables firmly into their ports. If you have, you have a defective phone or cord.
I doubt this is the issue but I just noticed that there is an option (settings -> battery -> advanced settings) to toggle "fast cable charging" on or off.
I think it is enabled by default but might be worth a look.
Have the same problem. Went to settings > battery > advanced settings... Unplugged my cable, turned off fast charging, plugged the cable in, unplugged it, turned on fast charging, plugged the cable in and it works now.
Slow Charging and Charging gets stuck
I have S8+ with me from last 10 days. Charging with original charger takes a very long time. Horrible. Moreover on reaching 80%, the charging stops even though charging emblem is active. I have to plug out the cable and re-insert and switch it on afresh, then it starts charging, of course slowly. A strange behaviour.

I've been saying something about it for a while but no one believes me. My s8 will actually stop charging but says it charging.

I am having exactly same problem. Also it has increased in past 2 days. Now it stops at 73% too sometimes. Also when my wireless charger came 3 days ago, it was unable to charge more than 3% in 20 minutes, and just stopped after that for more than 1.5 hours. I even took of s8+ from wireless charger dock and put in on again, but not charging after that.
The dealer i bought it from checked it infront of me, and it was charging properly upto 100 in his shop. But i checked it at my house and my shop, even at my friends home and its the same issue.
Right now trying to get a replacement. Dealer says that i have to talk to samsung through voiceover call, and fight them to get replacement or i wont get it. At the time of purchasing, he said he will do everything to get replacement if any issue comes up. Now says can only get replacement for first week, any longer than that and cant get it.
I paid 64,900rs for it and cant get replacement for a faulty phone within 15days. SAMSUNG SUCKS. Next time i will go for oneplus or xiaomi, cuz i may not get replacement there either but i will lose a lot less money.
you guys have something wrong, my S8+ charges 0-100% in about 1hour 45min.....and this is the normal charge speed, try another samsung original cable, maybe the cable head or the S8 port is damaged
No its a software problem that Samsung needs to fix because it not just 2 but a lot of people

Don't use your phone while charging ...
But should go into slow charging when in use. Should at least have a message saying that or a message saying charging when you use it instead of fast charging

Is your phone overheating while charging ?
What's the ambient temperature in your location ?
There is something called swelling prevention mode where the phone stops charging when the battery temperature reaches a certain point..

I dont use my phone while charging. Also if i use it while charging it, it mostly doest even charges. Just remains at same percentage when i put it to charge.
It doesnt heat up. Remains pretty normal. Even if i play a game like mc5 while charging it at the same time it doesnt go up much in temperature.
I put my S8+ on the charger with 20% and the wife's Nexus 6 with 35% at the same time. Both are supposedly fast charge and the S8+ was at 100% 30 minutes before the Nexus 6. The S8+ has a 3500 battery and the Nexus 6 has a 3200 battery, I wouldn't call it slow charging.
I have the same problem. I can't remember if it started charging normally after unplugging the charger itself and then plugging it back in or after restarting the phone. One of those fixes it. Hoping for a fix from Samsung/Android soon!
Really odd. A reboot didn't fix the same issue for me. What fixed it was turning the charger around. I'm talking about the bit that goes into the phone. I was under the impression that with usb c it didn't matter which way the charger went into the phone. I've tried this several times and get the same result each time. Slow charge when plugged in one way and fast charge when charger plugged in upside down if that makes sense. Could I have a faulty charging cable? Or a faulty phone perhaps?

“This is a normal operating condition to prevent damage to the device.”
: While charging the S8/S8+, sometimes charging is stopped even when device is
not charged fully.
because
: During wireless or wired charging, the device and the charger may become hot.
For your safety, Samsung has applied charging algorithm to protect device
overheating.
If the device heats up or the ambient air temperature rises, the charging speed may
decrease or stop automatically.
In Samsung authorized wireless charger, cooling mechanism (such as cooling fan,
air hole…) is applied.
Wait for the device to cool down and then begin charging the device again.
Hi
My Redmi note 3 drops charging after 1min when charged with 3.4amps digiplus charger. My Samsung j5 and htc phones charges extremely fast. Changed the charger at the shop but same problem. After 40-45secs charger starts blinking and charging stops. Any clue how to fix this
Why didn't use original charger from xiaomi?
Maybe is tryng to force the current in and the phone shuts it off.
This phone doesn support QC 2.0 or 3.0 so you wont be able to charge faster with it. I wont never draw more than 2.0 A at most
Its because of the electric current too strong so the device will cut it off.
Tried last time with a mate 9 pro charger, plug in 3 seconds it auto stop charging.
Hey,
Recently I've got a OnePlus 6 but it came without any charger. So I have bought a 30W warp charger which was taken from the OnePlus 7 Pro box. It charges and works fine till the battery is charged to 65%. After 65% it stops charging and I have to switch to some other regular charger or charge it via USB port from my laptop. to charge the battery from 65% to 100%.
I have cleaned the connection on phone, I've tried another cable but the result is always the same. Battery optimization is turned off.
I need your help: What can cause this problem and how I can fix it? I don't have a chance to test it with another warp charger, since I don't have access to other ones. and it is very uncomfortable for me to charge with two chargers -_- Please help...
