Fix: Android 13 Charging Slow or Not Charging Issue

1. Your first step is to open the Settings app.
2. After that, you must tap About Phone and tap Software Update.
3. Finally, tap on Check for Updates, and the system will check if any updates are available.
4. Install it if you haven’t already. Your device’s latest firmware can be found on the official website if there is no update.

Fix 3: Use the Original Cable or Replace It

USB cables are typically the most abused hardware components during a battery charging spree. Due to the stress and strain that it experiences, it is likely to break down in the first place. It is twisted, bent, strained, and undergoes several stresses.

Ensure the USB cable does not have any cuts along its length. Ensure that the cut ends are connected if there is a cut. You will still need to purchase a different USB cable if you don’t.

Replace the old cable with a new one or if you have a spare one (even though the stress part remains unchanged). You should ensure that everything else, including the power source, the charging brick, and the Phone’s charging port, are the same if the Android 13 device is charged via a different cable. Once the Phone has started charging, check back in 2-3 minutes to see if it charges at the same speed it did originally. 

Fix 4: Use The Original Charger if You Can

Next, it is logical to check if the charging brick is at fault after determining that there is no fault with the USB cable.

Here is how you can check if the charging brick is faulty.

1. Disconnect the old charging cable first.
2. If you want to charge the device’s battery, connect the USB cable to a different charging brick and plug it into it.
3. Both scenarios are possible here; the Android 13 device either charges at its normal speed or doesn’t. In that case, the device’s charging port or another component is to blame. The old charging brick may have been the problem, and you will have to replace or replace it with a spare.

Fix 5: Check if Any Process is Consuming More Power

You might have a battery problem (more on that later), or your apps or games are draining more power during charging than they should if your Phone’s battery drains faster than charging. To charge more quickly, close all apps and processes and turn off airplane mode if necessary. Recheck the battery charging after some time to verify that it is working properly.

Fix 6: Check for Debris Inside the Charging Port

An Android 13 smartphone can be slow to charge or not charge due to debris within the charging port, such as dust, lint, or other foreign particles. The charging port needs to be cleaned as the issue will only grow if left unattended. Cleaning the charging port, however, should be done with caution. Here’s how.

1. Start using a torch or flashlight to check for lint or debris inside the port.
2. You need to turn off the device.
3. The chunk should be carefully and gently removed with a toothpick or other sharp object. To avoid the possibility that the pins are damaged, you should be very gentle here, as any damage will result in the need to replace the entire charging port, even if it wasn’t damaged to begin with.
4. It may be possible to clean the port with a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol with the right tools. Taking remnants and corrosion away with it, the alcohol evaporates easily.
5. See if you can solve the Android 13 slow charging issue by leaving your device idle for a while and plugging in the charger after some time.

Fix 7: Check if The Port is Damaged

Water damage may not be visible unless you know exactly what you’re looking for, even if it is physically damaged to the port. To find out whether the USB cable and the charger are working, swap them. Your Phone’s port must be at fault since swapping chargers does not force the battery to begin charging if the different charger is working on another phone.

Fix 8: Change the Power Outlet

There is still the possibility that power outlets can impede charging speeds as they might not deliver adequate amounts of power, thus reducing the speed of charging. After changing the power source, you can check if it caused the issue.
