Nokia N8 Charging Issue

Is there any solution for the charging issue on Nokia N8? I even updated my N8 but the result is still the same.. The moment chargers pin is plugged in.. It shows... ''Unplug the charger to save energy'' and when the battery drains its next to impossible to charge it again.. Its truly frustrating.. I even tried to charge it using the USB Port when the battery drained.. But the result was still negative.. No signs or indications of charging!!!

Nokia N9 Charging Issue

I have this problem recently while charging my Nokia N9 16GB, when it is plugged on an outlet, a pop up appears to select whether to use as mass storage, sync and connect etc.
But if it is plugged on a PC, nothing happens and the pop-up doesn't appear anymore. It just charge like on a normal outlet. It seems that the functionality if it is plugged on an outlet or the PC was switched. I hope you can help me on this as I can't back up my files and settings.
Thanks

Would suggest you try a hard reset and reinstall PR1.2 using Nokia Software Updater, worked for an issue I had, bit of a pain but my N9 is 100% again now
If I have helped at all, a click on the White Star is always appreciated :

Nokia c7 charging issue

can i charge my nokia c7 with like any other nokia charger? without doing any harm to the battery?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You should be able to do that using the correct adaptors with most Nokia chargers. If you want to be sure, just check the output voltage from the charger to make sure it is the same. The current output from the charger will determine how fast the phone will charge and some of the older chargers with very low outputs may take ages to charge your phone.

Nokia 6700 - Charge from Micro USB?

Hi,
The 6700 manual confirms that the phone can be charged from both microUSB and the standard mini charge but what it doesn't say is that the only way to charge using the microUSB port is to connect the phone to a PC or Laptop. If you plug the USB cable into any other type of USB charge device, including USB charge adapters (such as the iPhone charger) or a standard car 12v socket > 5v USB adapter the phone issues an error confirming charge method is not accepted.
I thought the whole point of phone companies agreeing to the new microUSB standard was to permit charging using any USB port? It seems Nokia have limited the charge capabilities of this phone and it is a right pain.
Come on Nokia, please fix this with the next firmware update !!

This is odd, because Nokia lists their AC-10 microUSB mains charger as compatible. I had thought the device rejects any current above the trickle charge from a standard PC USB cord, but if it works with the Nokia microUSB charger, it should accept higher currents (1200mAH). In which case the Nokia charger must be "talking" to the phone over USB to give it approval.
On the other hand, the manual doesn't mention support for USB mains chargers at all, so maybe including the AC-10 on the peripherals list is a goof.
Hopefully this doesn't extend to Nokia's other USB-charging phones, I have plenty of generic USB chargers around.
Help I'm trapped in a sig factory.

IPhone 4 - Charging issues including "This accessory may not be supported."

So for the past couple of weeks, on and off, my iPhone 4 (2 years old) has been having intermittent charging issues. I have gone through four charging cords, all from Apple, and two charging blocks, both from Apple - none of these change/resolve the issue.
I had an online chat through Apple with someone a week ago, and she suggested resetting my settings only (resetting the entire phone was my husband's idea) - resetting the phone entirely did not resolve the issue, and resetting the settings (and only the settings) works for maybe 1-2 days maximum. Any of the following things happen when plugging in the phone to charge:
1) The phone charges normally (very rare anymore, happens more often if I reset the settings on the phone first then put everything back the way I want it)
2) The phone charges for maybe two seconds, then a message pops up that says "This accessory may not be supported." (8/10 times this happens, can usually get it to charge normally if I unplug and replug a bunch of times)
3) The phone makes the noise/vibrates like it is charging, but the battery percentage will go down over time. (rare, but does happen)
An Apple store visit is not exactly...possible? I live an hour and a half away from my closest one, and the location is not easy to get to (cross a bridge, pay $13 toll, $13 to get back over to go home, and that's just the way there and back...forget finding the place). I have cleaned out the phone at the charging port more times than I can count. My husband seems to think it is a battery issue...thoughts?

iOS 7 will give errors on non Apple certified peripherals. So make sure you only use Apple certified products. Did you backup the phone and then RESTORE AS NEW (not reset)? Try doing that by plugging the phone to iTunes on a computer. See if that helps. If it solves the problem, there could have been corrupted software on you phone. If not, it could be a hardware issue (including the battery), in which case you would need to go to a Apple Store or authorized service provider.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support

GPS LD-3W and nokia 5800 charger

hi , i have a nokia 5800 and a wireless gps module ( LD-3W) .
in bundle for Gps i received a DC-4 car charger but i need also charge GPS module at home .
May i use the nokia 5800 charger for this ?
i remember that :
5800 charger is 5v/890mA .. and GPS charger is 5,7v/890 mA
thanks

Someone asked so;
My 5530 charger works fine charging the LD-3W; its because nokia only every 1 of 2 chargers the large tip or the small tip.
Yes the LD-3W works really well and except for the LD-3W having some extra battery life I heard that the 3w and 4w are really quite similar.
I am not too sure on the specs of them for accuracy and positioning but when i use mine it updates quite quickly (with only little jumps while in my car) and it gets the right position all the time.
I believe the LD-4W should work fine with the 5530 also.
And if you do not have nokia/ovi maps then you should get it. Its free and it has full navigation now.
Ovi Maps
++If you have a 5530 you have to download the 5800 maps application from here;
http://maps.nokia.com/ovi-services-and-apps/ovi-maps/downloads#/nokia-5800-xpressmusic/
Its up to you but I just choose download from pc which is at the bottom as it wont cost you data charges etc for using you mobile.
++Next install the app on your phone
++Now thats it just install ovi suite from here;
http://europe.nokia.com/support/download-software/nokia-ovi-suite
and choose what maps you want to download and by choosing update you can check your app is up to date.
Most of this info above plays to the 5800 aswell

IPAD 3 battery charging issues

iPAD 3 battery charging issues. Read most of the discussions. My question is: If I take my iPAD to Apple Genius bar - what's the test they do to qualify for a replacement (do they place it on a charge and see the charge for Y% for X minutes or do they have other methods)

We're iPad users like you, so don't know.
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

IPad 3 charging issues

I have had my shiny new iPad plugged in overnight with it's included iPad charger (it was displaying some context for some of that).
I have just woken up and it's only at 39%!!!! Now I know that it's meant to take longer to charge but that is unbelievable!?
As I said I'm using the lead and charger it came with, the only exception is I'm also using a usb extension lead inbetween as the plug is quite far away. I used the same lead with my iPad 2 every night and it charged fine and fast.
It also kept displaying not charging when plugged into my PC (which is definitely high powered ports).
Should I be booking a genius bar appointment do you think!?
Thanks!

This is a genuine issue and needs to be addressed.
Yesterday, launch day, I received a white AT&T 32GB 4G version, but I found the color distracting and AT&T lied to me and I got no signal at all where I live. I was actually able to take it to my local store midday and exchange it for a black Verizon model. The Verizon is screaming fast.
Anyway, they both have the same charging issues so this is a definite problem with all iPads, or the iPad chargers supplied. I believe Apple will have to send us all replacement chargers. While using my iPad, even plugged into the 10W charger and with the cellular data radio turned off, doing nothing more than typing on this very forum with all other apps closed, the battery drains at a rate of about 5% every half hour.... WITH THE CHARGER PLUGGED IN! The charger is active and the lightning bolt battery icon is up there. The iPad will only charge when the device is fully powered down. Even if it is in standby the unit will not charge when plugged in. This is either an OS bug that needs to be fixed or the charger supplied is not nearly adequate.
The iPad charger will charge my iPhone 4S rapidly, even when in use. It also charged my previous iPad 2 in a decent amount of time. But this 10W charger certainly does not charge the iPad while on, and the iPad certainly does not get 10 hours of use with or without the charger plugged in,
This is a serious issue and one that needs to be address promptly. Apple needs to send us all higher wattage chargers, issue an OS fix, or take care of whatever the problem is.
They also obviously didn't think the new iPad development through. The unit gets quite warm when in use and quite hot when the cellular is on. Also, the display does not get as bright as the iPhone 4S, and several people at the Apple Store agreed with me on all these issues.
Unless Apple wants to see a lot of returns and unhappy consumers, they need to fix this issue pronto. In the time it's taken me to type this post the power has gone down another 3%, with the charger plugged in and supposedly charging. Something is seriously wrong here.

Nokia 6233 Charging Problems

I keep getting an error message when i try to charge up my nokia 6233 "Charger not supported".
Can anyone give me any clues as to why this has just started to happen?
I also received the same message when i used the car charger.
I have had the phone for quite a while and have never had this problem before.
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
Regards
Renee

It's either a software fault or hardware failure.

Xperia T charging issue

You could try repairing th ephone with PCC, if that doesn't work then a battery "might" solve the issue, hard to tell until you get your phone inspected by your local Xperia Care PC Companion (PCC) Bridge (for Mac) Alternatives on How to backup Xperias http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/36355

Hi all, As some other people I have a charging issue with my Xperia T. I have read through the other posts, but found that they don't exactly match my issue, so here's what my problem is:Yesterday my phone suddenly crashed with 17% battery left. I tried to switch it on, only got the typical melody for low battery and the phone did not turn on, tried one or two times more, same issue. I then connected my phone via USB cable to a wall socket. The red light came on and it looked like it was charging, I left it for half an hour or so, tried to switch it on, it did eventually, but battery showed 1%. Phone then kept charging, but seemed to stop when it reached 9%. I then switched it off, switched it on again (while still connected to charger) and it then displayed 27% charged. It then kept on charging until it reached 44% where it seemed to stop again. I once again switched it off and on, it then showed 69%. I left it connected to the charger over night, in the morning it still showed 69%. I switched it off and on again and then it charged up to almost 100%. Then I used my phone during the day and when it reached 49%, I wanted to charge it again. Charger was connected, phone was on, the red light kept turning on and off and the kept displaying either "charging" and the regarding percentage or "connect charger". When I switched it off and then on again, it showed 22% (when it had still been at 49% before!). At some point it decided to accept the charging and I got my phone charged up to 100%. At a later stage when it was down to 82% again, I tried to charge again (just to see what it does), it did not respond at all apart from flashing the red light once in a while, apparently attempting to charge.I have tried different USB cables, different chargers, different sockets, no difference. I cleaned the mini USB port on my phone, there was a bit of dust in there, but that apparently didn't make any difference either. Would exchanging the battery (probably 2-3 yrs old) for a new one help or does the issue seem to be with something else? Thanks in advance for your help,Julia

Iphone 6 charging issue

hello,
i seem to have an issue with my phone charging, i have two apple lighting cables that work perfectly, however, if i try and use any other lighting cable, including two brand new cables from apple, they will not charge. when my phone dies, and i plug it in using a different cable, it says its charging, but it never comes back on, and im stuck with a black screen and can't do anything with it until i get to my two cables.

Hello bobrulesall,
Based on your description of your configuration and the charging issues you are having (charging only from a specific pair of Apple Lightning cables), you may want to have your iPhone evaluated and/or serviced. You may find the information on the following page helpful:

Droid Charge Issues

I have only had my Droid Charge for 2 months and I absolutely hate it! It locks up all the time and I have to take the battery out. Then it switches to 3G where I live. Now, it won't charge. I charge it every night. Charged it last night, barely used it today and it's almost dead. It's been on the charger for 2 hours now and is still showing a dead battery. I have about had it with this phone. Of course Verizon is absolutely no help! They're the ones that talked me into this phone. I wanted the Iphone and they said this one was way better. It's a piece of crap!!!

I haven't had the opportunity to read through all of the Droid Charge Issue posts but it appears that we are ALL having similar problems to an extent....
I have had my charge since May and if memory serves me correctly, I had it replaced once within the initial month or so of having it
I have ALWAYS had an issue with 4G coverage..I've always been told that it's due to a lack of a connection in my area but friends in my home are able to get 4G service and I can in certain parts of the home. I was actually getting 1X service which is just RIDICULOUSLY unacceptable for what I paid for this phone.
Lately the 4G/3G service in my home has not been AS BAD but still is not great. I never had a signal at work and was told it was due to the structure of the building as the service was designed to work outdoors, really?? so I'm going to sit outside and make phonecalls and get the internet connection I need?! umm NO.
my Biggest complaint recently has been my phone freezing, the screen during off during a call in which i need to use the dialpad and cannot get the screen to come up and the CHARGE's inability to CHARGE!!!! When I use my wall charger (YES the SAMSUNG charger that came with the phone) or a cigarette lighter charger in my car the phone goes back and forth from charging to not charging. I have to move it a million different ways for it to charge and cannot guarantee that it will charge during the night. Due to the nature of my job and the situations that I am put into while at work, I need my phone to be RELIABLE and CHARGED at all times! I cannot deal with this charging issues. It was not happening as recent as two months ago. I noticed that my car charger worked fine and then one day would bring up the message asking if I want to access the media or mass storage instead of charging it. The mere sound of the beeping going from an uncharged to a charged state every second without any movement is making me what to end my contract.
Verizon needs to do something. I have not turned my phone in yet because I am NOT WILLING To pay all of the money that I do to be sent a REFURBISHED phone that was turned in for the same issues!
ANY SUGGESTIONS?
I was also talked out of buying the iPhone back in May (of course theres little profit on them for VZW!)

HP Dm1-1102sa Strange charging issue

Hi,
My laptop (HP dm1-1102sa) has developed a strange charging issue. The laptop will initially charge fine then it will flick between being charging and running on battery constantly. I bought another battery to see if it was that but the problem still occurred. I then took it apart to check for loose connections and voltage. There were no loose connections and the pins on the battery terminals were showing a constant 18.5v. I tried running the laptop with out the battery and the laptop shutdown after a while.
Anyone have any ideas on what I can do next?
Thanks in advance.
Simon

Hi, thanks for the response, I had a look at this page and followed the suggestions, it all came up fine.
What I have noticed is the bi-coloured LED that sits next to the power connection on the left side was white which indicates not charging (so it seems) , even when it was at 73% and plugged in it wasn't charging, I removed the battery and gently blew out the plug and socket and re-connected the battery several times to see if it was a contact issue, I also did the same for the power connector.
The odd thing was it would run perfectly on battery and on mains just not charging.
I downloaded the latest bios revision (not yet installed), so I left it for a while with the battery and the mains lead disconnected, reconnected everything and noticed the bi-coloured LED was now orange so I left it on the desk for a while not running and when I did start it up some time later it was upto 95% charge and then stopped charging again, and again the LED was back to whte.
Today after receiving this message I tried the suggestions as per the document (except I pulgged in the mains first which brought up the orange LED), performed the tests, I had already tried the HP assistant battery test in windows which showed no issues (still wasn't charging, sitting at 73%), now with it running in front of me (not the computer I am using to type this response) the LED is still orange and the message I get now is "99% available (plugged in, charging)".
So for the moment it appears to have righted its self which is a concern, I hope that it stays this way....
