I only can charge my phone
No data transfer with PC And no Fast charging
It can be a socket problem or charge IC?
First thing to do a d cheaper option is buy a new USBC cable and see if that fixes the problem.
In the US & UK USB chargering board is very cheap to buy, cheaper than the cable in some places. This could also be a method to go down but it means opening up the phone.

guys, I am having this problem from day 2 of having TF. First day was charging fine. Second day I had to play with the wire and reset the device then it charged. Today, NO CHARGING AT ALL!!!!
I tried to the piece that goes to the AC out , but still nothing happening. I connected to my PC, and it recognizes the TF and I can view its files, but with no charging!! Is that normal or what??? Does yours charge when you connected to your PC?? What should I do? Should I call Asus? if yes, what number? or should I return it to Best Buy.??
Help, please ....
I don't think the TF charges when connected to a computer but others have said it does but at a very slow rate. I've heard others say it does slowly only w the screen off as well.
It sounds like you may have a defective charger or charger port on the TF.
Do you have any other USB AC plug adaptors you could try? I know many of them don't put out the same power but may be worth a shot.

I tried a different USB AC plug, but no luck. I guess I am going to return it to Best Buy.
You need to make sure your using the USB cable that came with the TF and the outlet device that came with the cable/TF...
The TF charges at a higher rate than USB from the PC. So, the TF uses a USB 3.0 cable (included - most cables purchased are USB 2.0) which had more pins and allows for faster charging/higher charge rate.
Using the computer will only "trickle" charge. Using a USB 2.0 cable with the TF setup will prevent it from charging or only "trickle" charge....
I did not use any other cable or outlet device beside the one that came with the TF.
It seems it only syncs, but it does NOT charge !!!
I took it to Best Buy they said we can refund the money to your credit or choose another tablet because they don't have it in stock.
I don't want another tablet. If I had to, I will go to iPad 2
3 days now and I am having no issues at all.
I called ASUS, and they said its from the adapter, and I can not use any USB adapter like apple's. So, they want me to send it back to them, and they will do diagnostic at everything and will return it to me.
I just got this today.
If your looking for a Motorola Mini-USB to Micro-USB Charger Adapter.
Tried it on the G1 house charger and it showed it charging.
Tommorrow I see if it can get the phone to a full charge.
I tried it on my Motorola P790 Portable Charger, And it showed it charging.
On the next few day I see how much it can charger up the phone.

Yea I have a ton of those guys. Very nice
Back when MicroUSB was just coming about, my new phone had micro while my bluetooth headset and work blackberry used the older miniUSB.
Instead of buying all new chargers and car kits, I opted for those guys. Works great and an awesome solution. All of my data and charger cables are miniUSB with one of those bad boys on it. So I can use 1 cable for a wide array of devices.
Typically they are like $1.xx so buy them up.
It seems as if I have lost my charging adapter somewhere. I still have the USB cable part of the charger, but the block that plugs into the wall is missing. I tried to simply plug in the usb cable to one of my phone wall adapters, but that didn't work. Any idea of a replacement besides buying the $35 ASUS cable/adapter combo?
You can find them on Ebay and Amazon. Make sure that you get the correct plug because our tablet takes a special kind (15v). Other USB plugs (phones) will not charge your tablet correctly.
Here's one that I found doing a random search. I'm sure you can find them cheaper. This is the plug and cable.

I'm sure that either a Best Buy or Office Depot could order you one too. Probably be expensive though. Do your homework and you'll find what you're looking for.
Since I already tried 4 USB car chargers (Osungo Carjuice 2.1A, Belkin 2.1A, Ewent 2.1A, Belkin 1A) with several USB cables (my intention is to use this cable I got from dx.com), but none of the combinations succeeded in charging my N5 while using navigation on the road.
In the settings menu -> battery all of them display Charging (AC) when plugged in my car.
During night time they keep the battery around the same level and during day time the battery percentage even slowly drops.
I'm going to perform some measurements later today with Battery Monitor Widget and/or Currentwidget to get some numbers.
The stores close-by only sell this stuff for ridiculous prices, so I spent enough money on gas already. I haven't ordered anything online yet since it seems nothing is guaranteed to work and therefore I don't want to deal with the hassle of return processes plus shipping costs.
The only car charger that does work is the charger that came with my Galaxy Nexus car holder, but I never liked that charger since it doesn't have a coiled cable so the cable is all over the place across your dash and it has no universal USB connection to charge all kind of devices in your car.
Also I'm looking for a solution which doesn't require soldering of some sort.
Does the USB car charger + coiled USB cable which I'm looking for even exist and why is it so hard to just get a working car charger for your N5?
Today I did some measurements with Currentwidget and the problem lies in the cable which I got from Dealextreme.
When I tested with the USB cable which came with the N5 all chargers work fine.
Now I hope I can find a coiled USB cable which works just like the original N5 cable for a decent price.
Found one from Mediabridge, but it seems this cable isn't available in the Netherlands and on Ebay shipping costs are insane.
Does the 1A charger still charge the phone while navigating? Or is a 2.1A charger needed?

Both can charge the phone while navigating, as long as you use the right cable.
Very annoying since there is no way to tell which cable is good and which cable is not good.
This was also noticed in the following threads:
[Q] Terrible charge rate?
Need good car charger recommendations please
Discharging while using Navigation
Tried the cable which came with the HTC OEM Car Charger CC C200, together with a 2.1mAh car charger and it barely charged the N5 while navigating. The charging level went up 1% in about 25 minutes time, in comparison if you use the cable which came with the N5 the level will have gone up around 15-20%.
The Mediabridge cables (such as this one) should suffice (available on Amazon and Ebay).
Since those are not available in Europe and shipping costs are way too high, I now found an alternative from Speedlink. Hopefully this one will work just as good as the original N5 USB cable.
I am using PowerGen 2.1A car charger with 3' Samsung OEM usb cable and able to charge the phone while using Navigation, brightness at full, and streaming tune-in on LTE. Very happy with the setup.
I had a monoprice 10' usb cable, the thick version with cap on ends, the 3' samsung oeum usb cable works much better. Testing on my old phone Optimus G Pro, there are about +200mA improvement using the 3' samsung oem usb cable over the monoprice 10' usb cable. so make sure to use the shortest usb cable possible.
My sons phone just stopped taking a charge. initially thought we needed a new battery, which the repair shop order but isn’t in yet. In the meantime I did some reading And got a wireless charging adapter and was able to charge the phone. Also bought new block and cable. Phone charges with the wireless but still won’t charge with the cable. Any ideas why? Should we still replace the battery? I don’t want to spend $70 if it’s not going to fix the problem.
C port pcb is likely bad. Try cleaning the contacts first.
Replace both battery and the port pcb together.
If that doesn't work it's likely a mobo failure but it's likely the former.
Cleaned the ports previously. The wireless adapter plugs into the c port. If it was bad wouldn’t it prevent the wireless adapter from working? Or no?

It plugs into the phone C port?!!!?
Meaning it's charging through the C port?
Use a known good Samsung brick/cable and wall outlet.
Sounds more like a cable or brick failure...
