N5110 charging problem

[potworzak21]

I have a problem with my note 8.0 for about a month. One time it's charging just fine, the other time it doesn't charge at all... The same with connecting with computer via USB. No matter what cable/charger i use. Suprisingly i can flash it, with no problem and i can connect USB stick via OTG anytime. I also tried opening it and removing battery for several hours, but that only worked once. Anyone has any idea what can i do next to solve this problem?

I use an app called Galaxy Charging Current. It enables you to get a rough idea of what the current of your device is drawing:

For a Galaxy Note 8, it should be around 2 Amps, or 2000 mA, but it's likely to be around 1.7ish. I also use a device like this: http://amzn.eu/9aHm97o which you can also use to check current draw and test cables.

Not much help, but it may help you find out whether the device is taking a charge, or if there's a fault with a cable or charger.

After time the USB port gets loose around its connector, and does not hold the cable end tightly. Try replacement USB port. They are cheap and easy to replace.

Another thing is some aftermarket USB cables have weak connectors. Lightly crimp the center with small pliers as to compress top and bottom. I said lightly. It will put more pressure to the internal contacts so they are snug. May take a few attempts as you may be too light on crimping, but that is a good thing.

Clean your cable heads with fingernail polish remover
Let it dry some and push it in and out of the charging port til you get proper amps
