Chosen Solution
Hi all, so I’m working on a friend’s Note 10.1 2014 edition, and she brought it to me telling me it wasn’t charging. I tried different cables, but the same thing happened - the battery symbol would show up (as drained) first, then the screen would start flickering. I left it charging for 2 hours and not even one bar would show up. Then I found this forum with the exact same problem. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthr… So I looked into the USB charging port and sure enough, the pins were bent and damaged. So I ordered a new part, followed the guide here on replacing the charging cable inside. Plugged it in after the change - same exact problem. I’m stumped and I can’t find any others having this issue. What do you think? Bad motherboard? Thanks -
Change the adaptor, and if you don’t mind then the cable too Anil
Factory reset it and when it asks you, volume up:continue Volume down: cancel restart ,press volume down it should work tell me if it does not
Thanks to everyone who helped on this. I tried these steps and none of them resolved the issue. My friend has since passed, so this is no longer an issue, but hopefully others who are experiencing this issue can be helped.
Exact same issue. If at all I have to use it, then I need to have it plugged-in always like a desktop PC. Funny that the recovery mode/menu works without plugging!
If your screen is still flickering, try adjusting your brightness settings, and disabling the adaptive brightness feature. Corrupted data in the system on your device can sometimes cause the screen to flicker. Clear the cache on your device, then check if the flickering continues. Greetings,Peter
