You sould try to use the device till it dies then try to charge it again see what happens, maybe wipe battery stats if you have cwm. Also try to get one of those battery stat monitoring apps and see if its registering proper voltage and heath
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alexx910:
Had the same problem yesterday. my note went out of energy and shut down. So, after a while I connected it with the cable to charge. And what happened? After a hole night I got only 50% -.- I was like wtf?? then I tried the galaxy s3 charger and there was a red cross on the battery icon. Then I tried the note charger, again nothing, and like the other poster said, after a few times in and out it worked again.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da.trute:
another one here with slow charging, this is a big problem, its so slow it means it drains when you are using the tablet when its plugged in, you should be able to use it and charge at the same time. I could understand if it didnt charge much when I was using it but to not charge at all is a real fail.

Has anyone logged this issue to samsung?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickfitz:
Nothing has solved this problem for me.

Taking 8 hours to charge 79% is just beyond comprehension. Can't use it plugged in as it drains anyway. I want a update asap or I'm ditching this tab.

I don't know what caused this, it was fine a few weeks after the update and suddenly crippled.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bulbous:
So it's not the update then? If it was fine for a few weeks and then suddenly crippled JB is not the problem.

More likely an Application is NOT properly compliant with JB and is draining battery or hogging
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickfitz:
Nothing shows up as running and hogging the battery. It doesn't drain fast once charged. It just charges slow.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] da.trute:
Indeed, it charges so slow it drops when you are using it plugged in, if anyone has registered their tab properly with samsung perhaps they could log a fault, I havent had chance to do this yet.

Also, has anyone tried switching back to stock to see if it resolves it?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickfitz:
Ive done factory reset twice, ran the tab without a single store app and still slow.

I have a feeling its charging in USB mode which is usually very slow but the power menu states its charging AC.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickfitz:
Put the Note on charge at 22.15. Its now 5.25am. Its had over 7 hours charge whilst I sleep and its only at 69%. Up just 61% from plug in.

My note won't last the day now, I'm limping home with a dead note from work and that's when I need it most.

Charging it when using it doesn't help.

Hurry Samsung with the 4.1.2 update because I'm about fed up and ill drop this for something else. Just isn't as productive with a 3rd of my battery non existent.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:

Im having the same red x and slow charging issues except mine wont connect to the pc as well.>>> big problem. i need to get back to stock so i can RMA and for some reason, my backup went bad. and wont restore. :crying:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mickfitz:
Took mine to Samsung and they said it's normal. They said an S3 take 4 hours and seeing this battery is 3 times the size, it takes 12.

I picked up my tablet and walked out. Stupid uninformed staff with no idea.

I'm selling it today and wait for something not Samsung.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:
Call a customer service representative. They filed an rma for me yesterday. Mine told me it should take six hours to charge. I ended up flashing back to ICS and re-download JB and my charging is back to 5/6 hours.

I have the red cross while charging is that a problem?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:
are you using the stock wall charger or trying to use a pc?

You might have a faulty cable or charger.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justinchi:
Yes, that means it's not charging properly. Try unplugging the device and turning the part you put in the socket upside down and plug it back in. Sounds silly, but worked for me.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rirawin:
Im using my laptop to charge it?.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justinchi:
Yeah it charges slow on on your laptop
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:
Plug it into the wall. It will charge much faster
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwuhua1984:
I left the tablet off to charge last night, cause I couldn't charge with it being on. The tablet will show a red x on the battery if plugged in to charge when tablet is on. When I charge it, the screen will show the battery being charged, but turns black before the blue indicator fill up the whole battery symbol and the battery % wouldn't increase when that happens. If I'm lucky, then the battery will fill up all the way, then I could see it was being charged when I turn it on. I left it off to charge last night at 11, since I was lucky last night the battery symbol fill up all the way when I turned it on, this morning it was barely at 80%. I've been using the same wall charger to charge, does this have something to do with the JB update?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justinchi:
I think the red x is caused by some voltage error. It usually occurs for me when plugging into a Computer or when you need to turn your plug the other way in the socket. Maybe trying a different socket would help also.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwuhua1984:
I've tried several wall sockets this weekend, and it seem to work randomly and very very slowly at 80% after 8 hours. Does that mean I should buy a new charger now? I'm just afraid that this problem continues and I waste money on the new charger.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Justinchi:
I'd contact Support. Maybe they can send you a replacement device or troubleshoot you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gwuhua1984:
Went live chat today. She's telling me to factory reset it first, and we'll go from there.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:
You can always download the 4.0.4 image from SamMobile & flash back using Odin. It solved my slow charging problem.

Normal charging on ICS. Let it auto update to Jellybean & now it charges in around 3-4 hours.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenchinito:
I did exactly this, and the issue is still present. I even stayed at ICS for a while to verify it was charging normally, so I let it update to 4.1.2 and after that, Boom 12 hours of charge time...

This is irritating...
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:
Sounds silly, but have you tried a different charger or cable?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenchinito:
in fact, I haven´t. I don´t have another charger at hand though =S I guess I´ll have to swap with a friend of mine, just for the sake of testing...

Interestingly, Last night i plugged in mine while turned off and it charged at a decent rate. I´ll try turned on to see what happens.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chocu1a:
Yeah, I know it is random. If your Note isn't too old, you can open a support ticket with Samsung. I had a rma setup , but as a last minute effort I restored back to 4.0.4 & let it update to 4.1.2 again & my charging was resolved. But Samsung was willing to take it back for rma.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenchinito:
I tried looking in the samsung webpage but I couldn´t find the place to submit a ticket. Would have a link handy?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kenchinito:

thanks. well so far im using my original cable and adapter that came along with the tablet.

i just don't understand why I should go to another outlet to charge my tablet. when it used to be charging so well. and i only charged my phones/gadgets in one place all the time.

obviously samsung needs to address this. i guess them launching so many gadgets in a year, it's hard now to give after sales service to each one of it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Scorpion_Ibm:
You can give it a try .... some said change the cable , change power outlet , you may try another adapter , some said connect and disconnect 4-5 times quickly from the adapter .... all these wont hurt and i recommend trying another cable or the charger adapter of another working tablet

facing slow charging sometimes and recently the battery indicator stay at same % although already charge for 12 hours (it show charging status)

send my note 10.1 to samsung service center and they swap 1 new usb cable to me and the problem solved :D
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dickgrayson:
I solved my slow charging problem my going back to stock ICS. now it charges normally as it would be. So I'm pretty sure that the cord isn't the problem.

now the problem i have is that I loose my signal when its in sleep mode. When awake, it would go back to having a signal. On Jellybean, signal is okay.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] behemot24:
my father's N8010 has the same problem - charging extremely slow or at all. it looks like it comes from the contacts inside the tablet rather than from the cable (the adapter for USB stick works intermitently too).

i hope this kind of problem is covered by the warranty...

Hi guys, I have the same problem as some of you and for the people that the problem is not the cable nor the charger I cant find a solution. Is there really a way to solve it? Or we have to live with it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ToonTonic:
Hello all,

Has there been a solution to this issue yet? Im having the exact same problem and its very annoying. Im on the latest version of JB, using original cables etc to charge.

Like OP and many after, it takes forever to charge and even depletes when in use while still plugged into the mains.

Tempted to go back to ICS and then update again, but cant find the time to get involved with that again.

If anyone has any advice, or a solution that works i would be grateful.

Thank you

I began having the same issue last night. Charged it while turned off for 5 hours and it only got to 52%. I then tried a different outlet and a different charge plug and a different charge cable. Nothing works, and it actually drains battery slowly while plugged in and on.

I plan to order a replacement USB Port flex cable for it, and install it myself. I will let y'all know if that fixes the problem. If it doesn't I may also replace the battery.

i have same problem here, i bought my note 10.1 GT N8000 2nd hand (2014) and it is already on JB. at first it slow charging almost 12 hour to fully charge. but after that its getting normal at about 4 -5 hour to fully charge.

in about 3 month ago it become ridiculously slow to charge, its take 3 days to fully charge and just can live 6 hour if i use to browse. i have samsung galaxy s 5 and have same problem too and i install " galaxy current charge " from playstore to check my current charge. it is different current if you try different wall socket, already try it. the apps show that on my galaxy s 5 says current 750mA at office, 450mA at computer, 1200mA at home. its faster to charge my galaxy s 5 at home. but on my galaxy note 10.1 says current -minus when i charge and use it so the battery will keep droping, and if im not use the note it say its randomly changing in 102 - 602mA, i think thats way its become slow to fully charge 7000mAH its 3 time capacity with half current. im charge use the original charger.

note 7000mAH at 102mA will fully charge in 70 H, at 602mA will fully charge in 11.30 H if i not use it. i dont know yet what factor that makes my current not stable in my note (randomly beetwen 102 - 602mA).

s 5 2800mAH at 1200mA will fully charge in 2.15H, at 750mA will fully charge in almost 4H, at 450mA will fully charge in 6.2H

i wonder if it self defense to prevent hot or something. i try to charge my note with my s 5 charger and it show red cross in battery indicator, i know it is because of Ampere of my s 5 charger is 0.7A. im not try different cable or different charger yet.

im not sure if i do factory reset or install ICS will solve the problem, and i plan to try different cable first.

My original cable did that problem too & now I'm using a micro USB to Samsung 30 Pin converter + Note 4 cable to charge.

It takes only ~4 - 5 hours from 0% to 100%

....and if you buy 2nd hand N8000, it's better for you to replace the battery with a new one.

My note 10.1 GT-N8010 was charging very slow, even after a fresh reinstall back to factory settings. sometimes taking nearly 2 days to charge, even when powered off.

I fixed this issue with a new charge cable, I assume there was a break in the original cable somewhere giving a weak connection.

Order a genuine samsung replacement cable, and this may resolve the issue....worked a treat for me.

I got one from ebay, few quid and job done.

This slow charging is software related. It was after the last JB update that something went wrong, but Samsung does not seem to care about supporting this.

I'm not so sure about that. I had this issue on android 4.1.2 with the old and on 4.4.2 with the new bootloader. I also tried several cm builds. Always the same problem... In my opinion it's something hardware related. I also experienced that some wall plugs are better than others which is totally nonsense thinking about it ...

In other forums i read that people just changed the charger and everything was fine. Then again other people just changed the cable and it worked ... This is something mystical. Too complicated for my small brain -.-
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s_u_n:
My wife's Note GT-N8000 has the same problem. Overnight charge does not take the battery to 100%.

There is an app called Ampere and it shows the charging rate - the best I saw was 700 mAh.

I upgraded from stock 4.4.2 to Blisspop 3.1 (Android 5.1.1) - still the same issue.

This had also come in the past (but it was random). Now, it seems to be the 'new normal'.

Edit: Now the best I got was 1010 mAh. I also tried the trick of blowing on the connectors (at the USB end and also at the 30-pin side) hoping to dislodge any dust and then reconnecting a few times at the USB end.

Now, I turned it off at 28%.

I realize this is a massive necro, but if anyone still uses this tab and has this problem: I decided to try a new USB micro cable so I got a $5 Amazon Basics cable and to my delight it does seem to be helping a lot. I can actually use the tablet while plugged in and it no longer drains battery and seems to gain a % now and then.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] balla786:
So I bought a used T989D from a friend at work, 30$, too great of a deal to pass on.

I don't know how this guy treated his phone, but I'm running into some strange problems.

The first is I can't get any computer, regardless of the USB micro B cable I use to recognize the phone, it will ONLY charge, will not do anything else, no disk mounting, not recognition from the PC's that I've plugged in a new phone/device. So I can't ODIN to work to flash a custom recovery. I can get the phone into Download mode, but same issue, no recognition from the PCs.

I'm planning to open the thing up tomorrow and give the usb charge port a good cleaning with 99% Isopropanol, I can see some nasty gunk build up where the charge port is. If that still doesn't make a difference, can I replace the usb charge port? From the images I've seen on ebay for replacement parts, it looks to be soldered to the logic board, and that might be difficult for me.

The phone is on stock gingerbread, unrooted. Is it possible to flash a stock ICS image & radio via the stock Recovery - if all of the above fails?

Thanks!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] balla786:
So I took it apart, only to find what looks like corrosion? The water indicator sticker was not pink however, maybe it never got that far.

Went at it with a soft brush/q tips and alcohol, took of as much as I could as well as cleaning the micro B charge port, looks much cleaner.

Put it all together, boots up fine, charges fine, however PC will still not recognize a device is plugged in, only goes to charge.

I put an SD card into the phone, mounts fine, can access files/play, but no difference on the PC. Used a different cable and PC today at work.

Here are some images of the main board and case disassembled, you can see the white stuff, what looks like corrosion.

I might go at the charge slot again with alcohol and a brush later, might need to do it a few times. I'm hoping the actual board is not the problem.

I bought this phone to be a backup phone/travel phone (going to New Zealand in Feb), worst case I'll just unlock it and use it as is (Gingerbread) while I'm there and be happy.

Any suggestions/tips, things to try?
