Problem: My samsung galaxy s4 ,which got already upgraded to lollipop by the time i unpacked it and turn it on had been draining the battery,by say 1% per 2-3 mins each time i used an application,watch video or browse internet.i’ve done factory reset or restart it quite a few times.and now i am planning to downgrade it to jelly bean.so i need some suggestion and tips! If the problem persists then you should get a new battery. If you spot any signs of dirt or debris then clean it using a can of compressed air or a cotton bud dipped in alcohol. If it doesn’t then carefully inspect the charging port of your phone. Use a different charger with a different charging cord and see if the phone charges. Before getting a new battery try to check first if the phone charger is causing the problem. Solution: There’s a possibility that the phone battery could already be defective. Tried battery out and plug into charger, and still nothing. Had on charger for almost 2 hours and no LED, screen light up, vibration, etc. Even when “dead” kept flickering itself on and off. Ended up in situation today where phone completely died because was away from charger. Problem: Battery been draining very rapidly and taking longer than normal to charge. After the reset check if the charging issue disappears. This allows you to check if the problem is caused by a glitch in the phone software. Unfortunately, if this is the case you will have to bring you phone to an authorized service center and have it checked.īefore bringing your phone to a service center I suggest you backup your phone data and do a factory reset. Have you tried using a different USB cord when charging the phone? Another possible cause of this problem is that the charging port of your phone could already be defective. Solution: It appears that the issue is on the phone side. Could there be a broken ‘pin’ connection in the phone charger slot? Currently I’m simply swapping batteries from charger to phone each morning. I’ve tried several charging systems and plugs but no luck. I have three batteries, none will charge on the phone – only on an external battery charger.

Problem: When plugged in charge (lightning bolt) indicator shows on battery level symbol but after overnight connection not charged, in fact the batter % drops further like the phone was never plugged in.
