Phone Connected But Not Charging

All about local networks and network equipment

Users of laptops, namely laptops or netbooks, often encounter one common nuisance: when the laptop is turned on, the battery does not charge. At the same time, the LEDs work, the device does not give out critical error messages and works almost normally. The only difference is that the message about the battery hangs in the tray: “connected, does not charge.” How to make the battery on a laptop charge, we will consider in this instruction.

Normal glitch: the battery on the laptop stopped charging

Those who often deal with computer equipment have long been in the know: “glitches” and buggies can occur without any apparent reason. This is true both in relation to the OS (and not only Windows), and the hardware. The good news is that the vast majority of such “breakdowns” can be eliminated with the help of a banal reboot of the device. If the laptop says: “the battery is connected but not charging”, it will not be superfluous to disconnect the battery and insert it back. To do this, just turn the device upside down and open one or two latches holding the battery. Remove the battery so that its connectors do not touch the connectors on the laptop, then reinsert them. The next time you turn on the device should work fine.

Why the laptop does not charge the battery: method two

If this happens, and charging is connected, the owner can help reset the BIOS. This is explained by the fact that after a failure the device may incorrectly detect the battery. This often happens if the user leaves a laptop or netbook connected without a battery, and also changes the “native” battery to a new one. To reset the BIOS, you will need:

  • – Turn off the device.
  • – Remove the battery (see above).
  • – Disconnect the memory from the network.
  • – Press and hold the power button for 60 seconds.
  • – Connect the laptop to a wall outlet without a battery.
  • – Press the power button, go into the BIOS.
  • – Find the item Load Defaults (most often it is in the EXIT menu). This will allow you to apply the default equipment settings, that is, optimal for this device
  • – When the BIOS prompts you to save the settings, click “Yes”, then turn off the device. To do this, just hold the power button for 10 seconds.
  • – Disconnect the charger, then insert the battery and turn on the device.

Usually, after performing such a simple algorithm, Windows reports that the battery is detected and is charging correctly.

The battery on the laptop does not fully charge: what to do?

Manufacturers often shove various useful utilities to the installation disk, which serve to increase the productivity of the device or its useful life. These include energy managers. These programs serve to increase battery life, almost always due to an incomplete charge. This is the main reason why the laptop battery is not fully charged.

If the battery on the laptop is charging 60 percent or less, it is worth looking for and removing excess software. Typically, such programs in the name contain the brand of the laptop. For example, if the battery on the acer aspire laptop is not charging, you should look for the Acer Power Management utility, and if the asus laptop is not fully charged, then, accordingly, Asus Power Management.

To find these utilities, launch the Control Panel after clicking the “Start” button.

Phone Connected But Not Charging

All software is in the “Programs and Features” section.

Select a utility that does not fully allow you to get the battery power, and click the “Delete” button. You may need to reboot the device.

New battery: why does not the battery on the laptop charge?

If these methods do not help and you decide to buy a new battery, you may expect an unpleasant surprise here. If a new laptop battery is connected but does not charge, first of all, make sure that the marking of the new part is fully consistent with the marking of the old one. If everything is correct, in most cases the algorithms described above help.

All these methods help in most cases when the laptop’s battery is low and does not charge. When, after your “dancing with a tambourine,” the laptop still doesn’t see the battery, intervention in the hardware is already required. The power controller may have burned out. And the procedure for replacing it is already better to entrust to experienced professionals.

There are many reasons why a Nokia phone does not charge. The most common. This is a violation of the contact of the connector with the plug of the charger, a broken charger or a malfunction in the phone itself.

To find out why a Nokia phone does not want to charge, you first need to check the performance of your charger. To make it quite real about at home with a voltmeter or with the help of another mobile device. Only one thing to remember: do not try to connect this charger to phones of other companies, even though they look very similar. Such a check for the most part leads to breakdowns of any parts, and subsequently to expensive repairs.

If your charger is working fine on another device, now you need to check the phone’s connector. To do this, you need to insert the charging plug into the connector and move it as carefully as possible. If the indicator began to show the charging process, then the problem is the connector. It needs to be replaced.

Despite the fact that the charging indicator shows the presence of current, but the Nokia mobile phone is not charging, then most likely the problem lies in the problem with the battery. You can also understand this because the phone refuses to turn on. Perhaps the reason for this phone behavior may be a software crash.

If you are already faced with such a problem, immediately contact a service center. Real professionals will help you there.

Good afternoon, Roman. Maybe anything on the charge circuit.

The rapid loss of charge on communications means the owners of serious inconvenience. If your mobile phone does not charge, you can always find the cause of the malfunction and correct the situation. And in cases when the mobile phone is not charging either from charging or from the USB port, it is recommended to contact the workshop for repair or replacement of individual parts.

Mobile phone not charging

When the phone does not charge, you have to deny yourself many of the usual entertainment: calling friends, watching clips, visiting your favorite sites. The estimated service life of modern batteries rarely exceeds two years, and the first symptom foreshadowing an early replacement of this part is a too quick discharge of the phone and problems with charging.

There are several options for the malfunction. In some cases, the device does not charge from the charger, in others. From USB, in the third. It shows the process of charging the battery on the screen, but in the end it is only 10-20% charged. Many owners immediately purchase a new battery, but do not rush: in some cases, the battery can last for a long time, and the cause of the malfunction lies in the connector, charger cord or oxidation of the contacts.

The phone shows charging but does not charge

If, when connected to an energy source, the phone shows charging, but does not charge, the first thing to check is which applications are running at that moment. You may have forgotten to turn off your mobile Internet, Wi-Fi, or game. At the same time, the device can consume more power than it does when charging, especially when using the USB port. When charging is in progress and the phone is not charging, a non-original charger may also be the cause. Cheap copies from China can do serious harm to the battery, and the charging process turns into a lottery with unpredictable results. Therefore, it is much more profitable to purchase an original charge, with which you can recharge your mobile at any time. If you use a high-quality device, the failure may be due to a partial violation of the integrity of the cable. Internal damage can be invisible, so there is only one way to check. Take another charger.

The phone does not charge via USB

Owners of laptops and computers often combine business with pleasure: they use a USB port to charge the phone. However, it may well happen that this method will only bring disappointment. The phone does not charge from USB in several cases:

  • The connector is too loose;
  • Contact oxidation has occurred;
  • The wire is broken;
  • The battery is unusable;
  • The battery is incorrectly calibrated.

If the phone does not charge via USB, try to “feed” it using the outlet. For this purpose, it is worth using a charger recommended by the manufacturer, and if you do not have one, an adapter. The process will go much faster.

Sometimes it can help to connect to another port, because the inputs of a laptop or computer can also be malfunctioning. And sometimes the cause of the problem is inattention: if you have not fully inserted either of the two ends of the cable, charging the phone will be impossible, because contact is not provided.

Notebook owners are also advised to check if the laptop is plugged in. If the device is running on battery power, the system often blocks the use of USB ports. As long as you have at least one way to recharge your phone’s battery, don’t worry. However, it is important to constantly monitor the condition of the battery itself and not use it when the slightest signs of deformation appear.

Why it does not charge. The main reasons

Is it possible to independently determine why the battery on the phone is not charging? If you decide not to contact the master yet, you can eliminate several potential causes of the malfunction yourself. To determine why the battery on the phone is not charging, carefully examine the connector. If the owner has the habit of leaving the smartphone on charge all night, sometimes you can notice a color change in the area of ​​the connector. This may indicate that it regularly overheated, so it is quite possible that the contacts were oxidized or deformed. In such cases, it is advised to wipe them very carefully with alcohol.

The next step is to inspect the battery. The appearance of swelling can be determined by putting the battery on the table and twisting it. A working battery fits snugly against the surface so that no rotation will occur. Faulty will rotate easily. As soon as there is a violation of the shape of the battery, it should be replaced immediately: charging the device fully does not work anyway. And with further use, the battery case may crack, the contents will fall onto the board, and then the mobile will only have to throw it away.

Not charging. What to do

A problem with charging the battery can occur at any time. What to do if the phone does not charge? First, try to charge the device in the off state and make it one of your habits. In case of failure, experts recommend contacting friends with the same cellular model and try using their charger or cord to connect to the computer. If this operation was successful, buy yourself a new charge and cord.

If your device does not charge even from someone else’s charge, then you will need the help of a qualified specialist. Wizards from the service center have all the necessary spare parts and equipment to find the cause of the problem and repair the power circuit, connector or battery controller of the phone that is not charging.

It is worth considering that the phone battery is not being repaired: this part will have to be replaced. It is worth giving preference to original spare parts, because they are ideally suited to the needs of a particular model.
