There are few reasons why your smartphone refuse to charge while turned on but charges while turned off which includes; outdated software’s, bent pin (pin sometimes get bent to a different position that makes charging a hassle, and changes how the phone is recognized if at all. Because of that, you can only charges the phone when it’s off.)
Solution1:
- Power off your phone, and wait for like fifteen seconds before you start getting setup to fix the issue
- Examine the port carefully to see where the pin is bent
- Straighten out the pin carefully to avoid causing any damage to it.
- Once the pin is fixed properly, try to charge it when turn on and see the difference.
Solution 2:
- Use different USB cable and charger to power up your device when turn on. Sometimes, cable tend to be incompatible with some phones with time.
- Remove/Refresh your battery: if your smartphone have a removable battery, I suggest you remove it completely and use another different battery compatible with your smart phone. Battery incompatibility sometimes causes charging distortion.
- Make sure Your Android software is up to date otherwise search for an update for your device and get it updated. System crashes when they are out dated.
- Factory reset your Phone: When all the above fails, then you will have to do the needful by factory resetting your phone.
