Galaxy S4 not charging after recent update

After installing the recent software update onto my Galaxy S4, it's been charging extremely slow. Last night I put the phone to charge with 35% battery life and this morning it was at only 65%. I've been charging it singe i came to work and it hasn't cracked the 80% mark.
Can someone please assist?

Hi Mr.0 - Let's give you back the power to power your phone! Are you using the original charger that came with the phone? Are you charging while connected to wall or a USB port? Since this began have you removed and reinserted the battery? I am eager to get this resolved!
Thank you,

IPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update

iPad 2 switched off and not charging after iOS 7.1 update. Pls help me. I have tested my charger. Its working in another device. But my iPad 2 is not charging with other adapters too. What to do??

Hello, 92.romil.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I would make sure you are using an Apple branded cable with your iPad. If you are, the troubleshooting steps in the article below may help. The steps listed below for the iPhone and iPod still apply to your iPad.
Resolving issues
If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector.
Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
Plug the device in to power and let it charge for up to 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
If the issue is persists, please contact Apple Support.

HT2693 My UPAD lite does not start after recent update. I have lots of info in it. Can anybody help me to get it back. Can I get the update out somehow? Thanks

My UPAD lite does not start after recent update. I have lots of info in it. Can anybody help me to get it back? Can I somehow undo the update? Thanks

"UPAD lite?"
I expect that you mean some version of iPad.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Macbook battery not charging after software update

I was doing some work on my MacBook (4,1) with the charger plugged in and the lid closed (I was using my TV as a montior. There was a software update for itunes and a few others and now it's saying the battery needs to be serviced!
The battery currently has 62% charge, i've not disconnected the charger once in teh few hours I was working. Anyone got any ideas as to what could cause this?
The change to needing the battery serviced was not straight after the update, I don't think so anyway. I've not really noticed it until I went to pick up my MacBook and it all started to go haywire. It because unresponsive, black screen etc.
I've tried to reset the SMC and i've checked the charge cycyles too and it's about 250 so there's no problem there. It's just annoying as this is the 3rd battery i've had for this macbook, the other two being replaced under warranty. Now the warranty is up and it needs chaging for a 4th time!

Hi imi_uk,
I see you marked this question as "solved" is that the case?
If not, are you able to startup your computer via "safe boot" by holding the SHIFT key on startup (until the Apple logo appears and the gear appears below it).
The next step, would also be to boot off the system restore disc that came with your computer and attempt to repair the volume (the internal HD) via the the built-in disc utility.

My Iphone 4 will not charge after Ios7 update, does anyone know how to fix ?, My Iphone 4 will not charge after Ios7 update, does anyone know how to fix ?

My Iphone 4 will not charge after ipdate to IOS 7.0.4, Does anyone have a solution ? I have tried apple cables and chargers. I see many have the same issue. Anyone made progress ?

No offence, but as with quite a few others, my Iphone stopped charging on mains after iOS 7.0.4 update too.
Not sure you can categorically advise that "it simply is not a software issue" when so many different people are having the same symptoms after updating their iOS Just have a quick Google!
Luckily my (original Apple) cable will still allow recharging via USB to a laptop. So, process of elimination would point to a bricked charger that was working faultlessly up until the iOS 7.0.4 update was applied. Seems quite a stretch to be a coincidence.
Look forward to an explanation ..... and an update? ......

[solved] sudo and yaourt problems after recent updates

After recent updates (past week) yaourt started giving me problems. When using yaourt it prompts me for sudo password but it does not seem to use my sudo configuration.
I get this:
[sudo] password for root:
[sudo] password for root:
Password:
su: Authentication failure
Password:
When entering mine or root's password I just get prompt again. The last password is for su, which when I enter root's works.
It seems sudo is not using /etc/sudoers configuration either, as I have things like insults enabled and it used to work previously.
Any reason for this?
sudo works fine otherwise.

Try This...
Close All Open Apps... Perform a Reset... Try again...
Reset ( No Data will be Lost )
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons.

My imessage is not Working after recent update

My daughters iMessage & FaceTime no longer work after recent update, can anybody help please?

It's mostly a server issue because millions of users are trying to do the same. Apple's servers get bogged down. Try waiting a bit - a day - before trying again. You can also check out this for other things to try.

LENOVO K3 NOTE ISSUE-BATTERY DRAINING FAST AND USB PROBLEM!!!!!!!!

i have a problem in my K3 note, bought recently through flipkart..the phone was working fine but suddenly, now USB is not detected...whenever, i attach to the AC charger or charge with USB connected to laptop, it is neither getting charged nor USB is detected... But if i switch off the phone, now the phone gets charged... i have not been able to identify what the bug is about? i have factory resetted and also the battery was removed several times..however, the same problem is occuring.... Hope, i can get a solution from this portal Battery is also draining fast after this bug has started. Thanks in advance.

since many people reporting the heating issue.
i would like to ask you a favor to help me to do a experiment.
i am not sure if you guys know we have a feature called "background app management", it can restrict background tasks to block them consuming current drain. The heat could be generated by drain consumption.
the feature is at Settings->Power manager->Background app management.
I made a video shown at below link:

Please let me know if you can get some benefit on this issue.

Iphone 4 battery draining fast and yellowish blobs on the screen

So I got my iphone 4 today. 32GB. Came home charged it full powered down for battery memory and left off for a few minutes like instructed.
I have not done much with the phone and I am already at 85% within an hour of using it for texting. maybe 30 texts so far. Wifi off, no tethering connection made, Brightness turned to max push every 15 minutes 3G on. For a battery that is 40%n bigger it is really draining fast.
Now I am noticing yellowish blobs on the right side vertically and a few on the top horizontally. I read in a post that it was because of not cured residue and should go away in a few days. DOES this make sense to you folks. Where does it say that on apples site.
I am about to call a tech about this and have them send me something in writing.
This is just frustrating as I was hoping for a great experience this year. From the let down from the white iphone to my battery being drained to now yellow blobs..man can anything else go wrong.
What say you??????? any of you have battery issues yet

If my past experience with iPhones and iPods is any indication, you'll find that over the next couple days as you use your iPhone the battery indicator will become more accurate. My habit (as I've done with my new iPhone 4) is to use it until the indicator shows red and then charge it fully and then do that twice more. At that point the indicator should be 'calibrated' with the battery and be more accurate. Yesterday I used my phone for about 5 hours before the battery indicator gave me 20% warning. Today I've used it as I normally would in a day and, as I always did with my G3S, I'm currently home from work with a 40% charge showing. Guess I'll have to play a little Angry Birds tonight
I've seen nothing official from Apple about the yellow splotches but I read either at Engadget or Gizmodo this morning that a worker experienced with this process claims it is the bonding adhesive which hasn't finished curing. It has been widely reported second hand. Don't know if contacting AppleCare this early in the game will get you anywhere. Since iPhones are in short supply at this time and you have a year's warranty, I'd wait a couple days and see if the report is correct. If the yellow defect goes away it was true.

HP Mini: battery completely empty and not charging.

Seems, that computer was not shouted down completely, when I close laptop. During next two days battery was discharged completely and not working anymore.
What I have to do? I bought pc in August, 2010 - before that battery was really ok (around 4-5 hours).

Hi @Pandamoniumrain ,
I have brought your issue to the attention of an appropriate team within HP. They will likely request information from you in order to look up your case details or product serial number. Please look for a private message from an identified HP contact. Additionally, keep in mind not to publically post ( serial numbers and case details).
If you are unfamiliar with how the Forum's private message capability works, you can learn about that here.

Firefox will not open after recent update of all computer lab servers, Windows server 2008 R2, Multipoint 2011

All 3 computer lab servers were recently updated and rebooted. Java was updated as well to 7u21. Now all 3 do not respond when Firefox icon is clicked, from any thin-client or remote desktop session/user. There is no popup error, just an hour-glass for about 5 seconds and then nada. IE is fine. I can't tell if it was the java update or a windows security update, and I'm not seeing anything in the error logs

It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

M4b files will not sync after recent update

I recently updated the software on my ipod touch 4th gen. After updating, I tried to sync my playlists, but not all of the files would sync. After some investigation, I figured out that the files that wouldn't sync were audio books in m4b format. They synced just fine before the update. What is the problem here?

Thank you for the response, I have not tried a restore, won't that wipe out everything on the phone? Leaving on vacation and don't have time to start over, I'll have to try this after I get back if the next response does not solve the problem.

Ntlmaps not running after recent update. (FIXED)

FIXED - Ended up re-writing MAKEPKG, depends, modified patches file and new MD5 sums to build on Python 2.7. Instructions below for anyone who needs them. Cheers - Arkay.
Hi All,
I use ntlmaps in conjunction with corkscrew to create ssh tunnels out through my work proxy to my home network. It's always worked perfectly fine until a recent pacman -Syu.
From looking into it as much as I can it appears that Python 3 has been pulled into the mix where ntlmaps appears only to work with python 2.
In the original effort to fix it I updated to the latest MAKEPKG in the AUR which also doesn't seem to work with either version of Python.
I've attempted to debug the issues in Python though my knowledge of the language is sorely lacking.
The initial error I get is:
File "/usr/bin/ntlmaps", line 31
print 'NTLM authorization Proxy Server v%s' % conf['GENERAL']['VERSION']
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
But the code block above appears ok to me. On further investigation (running it line by line in interactive mode), it appeared to be the includes causing the issue at which point I found dos line endings on all the code in the site-python ntlmaps code. After removing all of them and converting back to unix eol's (didn't seem to really make a difference), I still get the same syntax errors. Further looking finds includes to libraries which possibly no longer exist or are depreciated in python 3. "threads" seems to be the main offender, according to the doco it is depreciated but should still work (tm).
I'm pretty much at a loss as to what to do next. I've tried swapping to cntlm but for some reason our proxy won't allow the connections through the way ntlmaps does.
I also just tried to re-install it with aurget. The makepkg worked but the install script failed with:
Byte compiling python modules...
error: command failed to execute correctly
Looking into that now too...
Any help would be much appreciated. Perhaps someone else can attempt to install and run it on their system.
Cheers,
Arkay.
P.S. My system is i686, recently updated.
P.P.S. Apologies to the mods. This should most likely be in the PKGBUILD forms... Please move and remove this P.P.S

Ok. For some reason I haven't (yet) been able to get the PKGBUILD working with python 3.

Then run makepkg. You should end up with a working ntlmaps for python2.7.
