Not sure if anyone of you experienced this problem before.
It occurred to me that my charging from socket is so much slower than normal, thus I downloaded current widget to check the current that is charging, and it turns out that it is charging at USB speed, and in my Battery information in Settings, it is displayed as USB charging instead of AC charging.
My phone (ATT SGH-I777) has been acting up lately. Not charging properly. Very poor battery longevity. I changed batteries. I changed cables. I changed chargers. Nothing seemed to work. This morning when I woke up the phone was dead even though I left it plugged in to AC power all night. Completely dead.
First off, I should let you know that it was in the charging loop, where when plugged in even with the battery out, it would boot to the phone off battery charging screen. I got it to boot to Android Gingerbread 2.3.6, (standard Boost version), but would not recognise charging with plugged into the wall.
So I bought my Nexus on Craigslist about a month ago. Everything went smooth, but i noticed the phone would frequently think it was charging when not plugged in or not charging when plugged in. This was because the previous owner did not use the charger that came with it and presumably bent the Micro USB connection. Nothing my trusty razor couldn't fix, just bent that dude back int place.
In recent days, I have noticed that when I plug in my charger, (in the house, in the car) my battery is not taking a charge. The only way it will charge is if I restart the phone. Upon rebooting, it charges.
This is not happening every single time (less than 50%), but it doesn't make sense.
Last night, I had my phone off while it was charging.
Every night, I plug my phone into my laptop to tether (can't seem to get bluetooth to work). Since upgrading to 4.2.1, my phone says it is plugged into USB & Charging but yet it is actually discharging. It seems that it is discharging slowly. I'm thinking that it is charging but not as fast as it is using the power.
So for the last week or so, i've noticed that when I unplug my phone from overnight charging, its no where near fully charged. After about 6-7 hours plugged in, it would only be at about 70%-80%. I found it a bit curious and finally had a chance to do some troubleshooting last night.
I already have a battery widget installed, so I used it to let me know what is going on.
