I am having problems with my A06 charging
Now it cannot charge while its on and its only using the normal charging no longer doing the fast charging.
Everything is fine the port and the charger l think the charging software is misbehaving.Fortunately ma software version is up to date.

Check if there is any dust in the charger. It can build up and make gaps preventing charging. Try a different cable. Did the cable always use to do fast charging?

Hi Commander357
It’s unlikely to be a software issue—this behavior usually points to a power delivery or hardware-related problem, even if everything “looks fine.”
Try the following steps:
1. Check the charging cable and adapter properly
Even if they seem fine, fast charging can stop if:
The cable is worn internally
The adapter is not delivering correct voltage
Try a different original or high-quality fast charger.
2. Clean the charging port thoroughly
Dust or lint can cause:
Slow charging
No charging while the phone is on
Use a toothpick or soft brush (no metal) and check inside carefully.
3. Check charging settings
Go to:
Settings → Battery → Charging
Make sure Fast Charging is enabled (if available on the Samsung Galaxy A06).
4. Boot into Safe Mode
This checks if an app is interfering:
Power off the phone
Turn it on and hold volume down while booting
If it charges normally in Safe Mode → it’s an app issue.
5. Try another power source
Wall plug vs power bank vs PC
If it only fails in certain cases, it helps isolate the issue.
6. Important diagnosis clue
If the phone:
Charges ONLY when off
Does NOT fast charge anymore
👉 This strongly suggests a faulty charging IC or battery issue, not software.
Final advice:
If none of the above works, the device likely needs a hardware repair (charging IC or battery replacement).
