If the phone is slowly charging, then do notto think that the problem is only in the charger or battery. In fact, the problem, as well as its solution, can be much simpler. What should I do if my phone is slowly charging or not charging at all? What are the causes of this problem?
Bad contact
Quite often, inside the USB port or near the charger cable, the metal coating has poor contact. This may be a defect due to the fault of the manufacturer, or wear of the cable.
What you need to do if slowly chargingphone due to bad contact? Turn off the device and remove, if possible, the battery. After that, all contacts should be cleaned with something like a thin needle. This should be done very carefully and carefully. After cleaning, the battery must be replaced and the charger connected again. Often this method helps to restore the normal charging process.
Dust and debris in the charging port
Many wear their gadgets in jeans pockets, and inThey have small fibers that can cause the phone to slowly charge. Masters very often face precisely such an incident. What to do if fibers or dust are clogged in the connector? It can be normalized by blowing compressed air from a can. You can use a powerful dryer with cold air or a compressor. After cleaning, the phone starts charging normally.
Cable replacement
In the whole charger the most fragile partis the cable. Due to constant bends, it quickly fails, as a result of which the phone charges very slowly. What to do? The easiest way to diagnose a damaged cable is to temporarily replace it with another one. In the event that another cable with the device works as expected, the original wire is defective. If not, the reason is not in it.
Adapter replacement
So, the problem with the cable is excluded, but stillIs the phone charging slowly? In this case, you need to check the performance of the charger itself. If the design allows the cable to be pulled out of the adapter, the check will be simple. Often, you can encounter chargers whose ports have been badly worn due to the large number of connections and disconnections of the cord.
You also need to check the adapter and cable on other phones. This will help ensure that the fault is not related to the mobile device itself. And it will be useful to check the outlet.
Safety is key
Do not charge the device nearby with wateror in very humid conditions, as in too hot. Do not keep the device connected to electricity for too long. If it charges in just three hours, then why leave it to recharge all night? Because of this, over time, the phone slowly charges and quickly discharges.
If you need to replace the wire orthe charger itself, you need to be careful, as cheap copies from Chinese manufacturers can be sources of danger. Recently, there has been an increasing number of cases of mobile phone ignition due to low-quality adapters.
Battery Replacement
Battery life cannotlast forever. After 4-5 years of use, its capacity is lost, which is why the phone is slowly charging. The more often the charging and discharging processes occur, the sooner the battery will deteriorate. If the battery stopped working after only six months of use, then this is not normal. In this case, it is worth contacting the seller.
Sometimes a defective battery can be easily identified after inspection. If it is swollen, it should be replaced immediately.
Charging from the correct source
Many people charge their gadgets from computersand laptops. They have a question: why is the phone charging slowly? Computer ports are too low. From the outlet, the phone will always charge much faster.
The problem may lie in the fact thatThe adapter is used entirely from another device, for example, from a headset, which is not intended for the phone at all. You can often hear a complaint that the Samsung phone is slowly charging. At the same time, users charge it with an adapter from other models. But all the adapters supply a different output voltage.
Software update or rollback to the previous version
Updates on the phone may adversely affectphone battery life. This is especially true when the old model is updated to the new version of "Android". Fresh models are usually optimized for updates.
If the reason lies in this, then you cantry to roll back to the previous version of the software. For a start, it makes sense to try to reset the settings to factory settings, as device manufacturers often recommend. This will help avoid data loss due to a different operating system version.
In the same way, the charging problem can be solved by installing a newer software version.
Turn off the phone
Often applications run in the background.Their use significantly affects the duration of the charging process. For example, if the browser is running, Skype, and something else, then the smartphone will need much more time to fully charge.
You can turn off the device and put it on charge. So the process will go faster.
Battery charge indicator calibration
In conclusion, you need to remember another typemalfunctions: the indicator on the screen shows that the charge is full, and the device turns off very quickly and needs recharging. Most people think that the battery has become unusable. But often the reason lies elsewhere. This happens after flashing the phone. After its implementation, battery calibration is necessary, which many people forget. The bottom line is that after replacing the firmware, the phone does not know how much charge remained. Therefore, it is necessary to calibrate the display to indicate the correct battery charge.
