samsung s7 == charging has stopped

[ruggb]

My wife's phone was wirelessly charging and made a sound then showed a message that said "charging has stopped". There may have been more to the message, but she ignored it. When she picked it up she commented that it was hot.
What might this mean?

Most likely charging coil for wireless charging went bad , can you wire charge?

If the coil went bad wouldn't it just not charge?
But it gave me a message that it stopped charging at around 70%.
If it overheats will it do that?
The battery test programs indicate the battery is in good health - If you can believe them.

It will stop charging if it gets too hot, I don't use it any more but my S7 years ago would stop charging while in the car if left on my passenger seat because it got too hot.

My current Note 20 Ultra does the same, it stopped charging a couple weeks ago when outside in the sun connected to a solar panel.

Yes, it still charges wirelessly. It just seems like it gets hotter than it used to. Definitely hotter than my S10+.

I changed you to post owner , i do recall when i had the s7 edge it did get hot wireless or wired and just simple task so thats the nature of that device

Thanks, it is strange that it would get hot enough to stop charging.

Welcome, yeah if it gets really hot i wouldn't be surprised phone turns off

Well, considering that doesn't seem normal, but the battery apps think the battery is healthy, is it time for a battery replacement? Or should I consider it normal and just go on?

 

[mustang7757]

Unless battery is giving issues like not holding a charge or battery doesn't last long then just keep using it

Does this happen on any wireless charger, or only certain ones? I don't know much about how wireless chargers regulate heat generation, but I do recall having a Tylt charger that would tend to make the phone a lot warmer than other ones I had. So maybe it has to do with the wireless charger she was using?

Where did you get the wireless charger?
