Hello, i have an S8 and today i noticed while it was being charged that the notification says Cable Charging and not Fast Charging but the same estimated time as Fast Charging, i tried cleaning the socket and i tried another charger and it doesn't change, i tried my charger on another S8 and it fast charges normally, and now i tried charging it again but at first it said Fast Charging for like 2 seconds but then somehow for about half a second it stopped charging and then started charging again but back to Cable Charging

so is this a hardware issue? or is it a software issue?
if it is a hardware issue is it a serious one? is it the port or the motherboard electricity?

if anyone has any information about this please provide me with it because i have less than a month left in my warranty and if it's a serious issue i will to send it to warranty before it's over

thank you in advance

I know the only method which might be helpful.
Got to Settings > Apps > Show System Apps(you will find in top right 3 dots) > find "USBSettings" > storage > clear data and cache data. Than reboot your device and check if it works.
