I made a mistake buying S7. Wasted almost 50k rupees. Lots of bugs after Nougat update. The phone doesnt charge properly. Fast charge doesnt work at all. Everytime I have to keep an eye on this phone while charging to check if its charging or not. Its stops charging sometimes. Else it charges very very slow. I tried using other chargers and cables. Its of no use. No use even after performing factory reset and clearing cache partition. I think even 6k redmi phone doest behave this way. Many users are complaining the same charging issues. I am surprised to see that even the latest S8 and S8+ users are reporting the same. But Samsung never cares. They are ruining the well working phones with their stupid updates. I am fed up with this. I have been facing this since two months. I regret my decision of buying Samsung over Apple. Its true. I realised finally. I am not Apple fanboy. Please dont get attracted by stupid features that samsung gives you. No one uses them any how. All that we need is a stable and non laggy working phone with regular updates. Samsung never does it. Never ever Samsung again. Bye. Have a look at the screenshot I've attached. Charges 1% in 24 minutes with fast charging enabled. 5% in 31 minutes.People might argue with me that their devices are fine. They are lucky for not having these issues. There are many defects in battery manufacturing too I hope. Thats why they are slowing down charging when it reaches certain temperature. We all know what happened with Note7. The probability of defective devices is also increasing. Like 1 in 100 might face this issue. But we get to know only when we face the issue personally. I accept that many other devices are working fine. I wrote this out of my frustration. Beware of this guys. I think I am going to file a case in consumer forum. I request all the guys who are facing similar issues, respond to this and you too file a case in consumer forum. It is of no use going to service centre as the problem ia with the software itself. They cant do anything other than factory reset or reinstalling the software using SmartSwitch.46ccf2e7-2167-4b8d-ac66-24407f87c381.jpg

I turn everything off before charging. I turn off wifi/mobile network/bluetooth/nfc/etc. I tried in airplane mode, safe mode and switched off mode. Nothing helps. Its a bug effecting some devices as you can see many users are reporting this in this forum.

Charging problem is known issue. Samsung is saying that they are working on it. When it reaches a specific percentage when it stops there, then switch off the button of the socket and turn it back ON. It will resume charging. It is working for me.

Even if I unplug and reinsert charging, it charges for sometime. Just charges for 1 or 2 percent and again stops. Sometimes it doesnt even charge. I have to check my phone for every 2 minutes to ensure this. This is irritating me like anything. Sometimes it charges well upto 80%. It doesnt charge beyond this. Stops charging at 83. I reinsert again. It goes till 85 and then stops. Again after reinserting it goes upto 88 and stop. Again from 88 to 89 and 89 to 90. I've waited for sometime in between to see if it works. Look at the latest screenshot I've attached.

Why we have to unplug? Yes, I also earlier found the solution of it. Last time I unplugged it twice to be able to charge. Discharging faster also then be4. Unexpected for a 48 k phone
