Problem when charging Nexus 4 with lollipop...

[meandow]

Hello,

I don't know if I am the only one in this situation but when:
- I'm trying to charge my nexus 4
AND when
- my cellphone is locked

something weird is happening:
- my screen seems crazy
- my cellphone seems doesn't recharge

So, I can charge my cellphone when it is off or when I keep it unlocked (I let the automatic lock to 30min after "standby")
With Kitkat I could charge my phone with no problem...

I am having similar issues with my Nexus 5, you are not alone.

Same here with Nexus 4. Since I installed Lollipop, can't charge normally. When connecting the charger, it seems normal until the device locks itself after the preset delay. I can then hear very faint clicking sound coming from the speaker. If I try to turn on the screen at that moment while the charger is still connected, I get a strange blinking screen, the device is completely unusable until I disconnect the charger. When this problem occurs, the background image also revert to default. Thank's OP for the suggestion of putting the sleep delay to 30 minutes instead of the usual short delay, this way the device can remain usable for a while when charging.

Yeah, it's exactly what I'm talking about!

No issues with my Nexus 4 but I flashed the factory image to upgrade.

I read a article about this issue yesterday. The problem seems to be related to canadian french only. Until google provides a fix, the only suggestions are either to set language to english or France french (or any other language for that matter).

Thanks ! Switching to French (France) solved my problem.

I heard some providers here in Quebec are discouraging users to upgrade to lollipop because of this issue.

Device works fine now !

I had the same problem and saw the suggestions here and even though my phone was in English already, I decided to check anyway.

It was "English (Estados Unidos)" and a little above it, there was the option "English (United States)" ¬¬ I changed to the second one and the problem went away.

This is the second time I have a problem related to language. ¬¬ Will they ever learn?
