Slow charging A15 After December Update

[Khobi]

Hey there

After the recent December update in South Africa, After a few days the phone started slow charging (8 hours until full), I've tried changing the ports,clearing cache,restarting phone , changing wall charger,cables, and even used a powerbank to check where the problem is and it is definitely the phone.

Please help ASAP!!

what update are we talking about? the google security update for 1 November? or Samsung update UI6.1.1??

you can read through this Charging Tips | Galaxy Battery | Samsung United Kingdom it contains some tips and eventually contacting the Samsung service themselves

meanwhile, try turning fast charging on, also try resetting the USB settings,

Settings > Apps > on the button next to the app list choose show system apps > USBsettings > storage > clear cache and data.

It's the security update for 1 November 2024 with size 872.56 MB

Yes I'm referring to the samsung update...I still however updated all my samsung apps and all the Google play apps and it's still slow charging.

I am recently facing the same challenge too with my a15. I just woke up one morning to charge my phone and its taking over 8hours to get a full charge but the same charger is fast charging another phone.

I'm currently experiencing the same issue. fast charge suddenly stopped working. The phone takes over 8 hrs to fully charge.

Apparently samsung software and hardware  for their lower tier A series phone below A25 like your A15 and lower cannot really sustain  25W charging so eventually the charging port gets damaged as a result of not being able process the 25W power.I used to have an A25 and have never had such a problem so to be honest I'm definitely not buying samsung phones ever again, I don't think they care anymore about their customers and products they have lost the plot...like now none of their good midrangers have a headphone jack port.
