Ok now i notice this a lot at my desk when the phone is connected to my old galaxy s4 USB 2.0 charger not sure if it also does it at home with the USB 3.O charger also, but ill connect the phone then wait for the screen to sleep and about 10 sec later it disconnects from charging then 1 sec later reconnects (causing the phone to vibrate and screen to go on) now it does this randomly through out the day and not all the time maybe one out of 20 times, most people wont notice it i think, but the phone sits next to me at my desk so i see it. any one else having this problem or suggest anything i have tried 3 other USB 2.0 wires so its not that. :-\

Any help is appreciated

I've had the exact same problem, you may find that the phone just starts to charge normally in the next few days but it will happen again. I just sent mine off today to be repaired (i tried 7 chargers all had the same problem)

Might be a loose connector, too. In any case, it does seem like you should get your phone replaced ASAP.

I have the same phone and the same problem I found that it was a problem with the unique wire for the note 3 try getting the standard Android wire for your phone.
