Battery not charging

Home How to Save battery life on android Battery not charging

To be able to understand how to fix “Not charging phone”, first of all you need to know what is the reason of the problem:

  1. Charger is not suitable
  2. Battery is dead

How do you know that the charger is not suitable for your phone or tablet:

  • Charger is not “out of the box” or “not native”, or fake (carefully check the charger’s appearance, the brand should be the same as on your phone/tablet, which is especially important for older Samsung tablets) to be able then to find out how to fix Android phone or tablet battery is not charging
  • Another charger is charging without problems, and when I connect the device to my native charger, the phone or tablet does not charge properly
  • The charge only increases when the phone/tablet is switched off (clear indication of insufficient power of the charger)

If anything of the above is the case, you should replace the charger. If the list above is not helped – try to replace battery to fix “not charging phone” problem.

If you decide to buy a new charger to fix the problem “phone battery is not charging”, pay attention to the current and voltage output, for modern smartphones and tablets with high capacity batteries, the current output must be at least 2 A (amps) at voltage of 5 V (volts), because in other case cell phone battery will not charge or will charge very slow.

Battery not charging

If you have already changed the battery and charger, and your phone is still not charged – you need to contact the service center, your phone has more serious problems.

Battery is charging slowly

If the phone is charging slowly, it is often the result of using not “native” charger that is not suitable for charging this smartphone, which is especially critical when charging the tablets. Don’t worry, you will find the reason of “why my phone is charging slowly?”

  1. Turn on airplane mode, if in this mode device will not charge slowly – try to limit internet connection for your apps
  2. Some process/application on your phone actively uses the processor, consuming a lot of energy, which can be traced on the schedule of energy consumption by applications (settings – battery), when you traced it – turn them off
    Battery is charging slowly
  3. Use compatible charger, that support the same fast charge technology, like your smartphone
  4. Try to calibrate your battery, in some cases it can help solve your problem with the charging slowly Android
  5. The battery has exhausted its life, in which case you should replace it with a new one.

They are the main factors that influence the fact that device is charging slowly. Have some questions? Ask it in the comments!

Battery calibration

When your smartphone or any Android device indicate the charge percentage wrong you can use a built-in Android function for the Battery calibration.

Battery not charging 1

Basically, the main things why you need to make Android battery calibration are in two factors:

  1. You calibrate mobile phone battery when the indicator shows a full discharge, but the device continues to work for a long time
  2. Calibration of the Android phone battery is required when the indicator displays a full or average charge level, but after a short time the battery is completely discharged and your device turns off.

It often occurs after every re-flash of the operating system, after which, the newly installed system does not exactly “know” how much the battery was discharged at the time of installation.

Battery calibration method without root

For Android battery calibration without root you need to follow some steps:

  1. Discharge completely your device. After your device has turned off automatically, try to turn it on again. Try it until the moment when it turns on, “whine” and then turns off again
  2. Remove the battery from the unit for a couple of minutes, then insert it back. Leave the device off. (If you can not physically remove the battery from the unit, just leave the device turned off for 10 minutes)
  3. Connect the charger to your device and leave charging until the indicator shows full charge. If for some reason it is not known how much the battery is charged, then charge about 4 hours
  4. Do not turn on the device, remove the battery again for a couple of minutes, then plug it in and turn it on.(If the battery is not removable, leave the unit switched off for 10 minutes and then turn it on)

Battery calibration app with root

Using this method of battery calibration root, you can achieve more accurate display of the level of charge in less time. You need root access for that.

  1. Download and install the Battery Calibration Pro app
  2. Charge fully the smartphone (100% sure! Wait a little bit more after you see the full charge) If the smartphone cannot be charged up to 100% – hold it charging for about 4 hours, if your device have 5000+ mAh – hold it 1 hour for each 1000 mAh and then continue)
  3. Launch the battery calibration app and click “Calibrate the battery”
  4. Unplug the charger
  5. It is recommended that the smartphone is completely discharged after calibration

After the battery calibration, you can use a smartphone with one correction – wait for a full discharge and charge only up to 100%. Otherwise, incorrect data may appear.
