Note8 Charging Very Slowly.

[Ani24T]

Since past 2 weeks, my Note8 is charging very slowly. As you can see in the screenshot attached that estimated time required is 5 hr 54 mins to charge from 28% which is really very large time. It first shows normal time that is 1 hr 30 mins and then time slowly got increased to 5 hr 54 mins. And if I turn off the switch to the charger and turn it back on, I sometimes get the original time and the phone charges with normal speed to 100%. I have fast charging turned off. I have factory reseted my phone once and still the problem is persisting. Please help me with this issue. Thank you.

enable fast cable charging from battery section .

Fast charging charges my phone as it should. But question is about normal charging. It should not take more than 2-3 hours to charge from zero to 100 even with fast charging disabled. And here I am getting time of approx 6 hours.

then go to service center.

Yeah that will be my last resort if I didn't get any help here.

or use fast charging for now

Your battery is uncalibrated.Charge your phone to 100%, goto keypad, type in *#0228#. This will take you to a battery status screen. Press quick start at the bottom of the screen. Your screen will go blank for a few seconds. Press the home key. Your battery percentage should have dropped. Charge to 100% and repeat the process. After a few times the drop should be negligible. Allow the battery to completely discharge and repeat. Hope this helps.I have also faced it and this worked for me. Good luck.

Ok I will use this method and let you know if it worked for me or not. Thank you.

How many times do I have to repeat the procedure after complete discharge though?

Ok.. I will do this and let you know. Thanks again.
