Charging issues with my Samsung Note 10.1 (gt-n8010) really slow at charging.

Hello All

I was wondering if someone can help me or point me towards the right direction.

I have read the previous threads about this subject, and I have tried and tested some solutions but still not working.

The problem i'm having is with my Samsung Note 10.1 (GT-N8010). As the charging is really slow, I have left the device on charge overnight, it only charges upto 51% of the battery as displayed. I don't think its an issue with my USB cables or the USB plug as the device is charging. (Am i right?). it could be an issue with the battery itself? is there any i can test this? before i commit to buy a new battery for the device.

Regards

Definately try a new usb cable. You dont think it is the problem but you wont know until you try a different one. I have had many bad usb cables on different devices. They will not charge or charge intermittently it is the most likely problem and the cheapest and easiest to fix.
