2. Charge in Air Plane mode or turn if off

You should also check charging status in Air Plane mode or turn it off and plug in charger. If your phone is charging in air plane mode that’s mean charger is not providing enough current. In this situation you should change your charger and should also clean charging base of the phone with a”tooth brush”.

3. Reset when phone is not charging

I tried to fix this problem by cleaning charging base with tooth brush and I also changed charger but these did not worked for me. Than I reset my android phone, after resetting everything was fine but with the new charger. So, problem was with both phone and charger.

4. Remove battery

When phone is not charging open the back case, remove the battery, plug in charger and than insert battery after some seconds. Don’t turn your phone on because it will be charging in off state.
