Solved: Z Fold 4 Fast charging issues - Samsung Community

NatureBoiyy · ‎08-30-2022

Recently just got a Z Fold 4, when I plug my phone in to charge it doesn't fast charge whatsoever. It'll say fast charging for 2 seconds and then it will revert back to just regular charging, doesn't matter what cable or charger I use it's all the same, anyone else have this issue?

Hello, We understand the importance of being able to superfast charge your phone! For those who have updated their phones to One UI 4.1.1, please take a look at the following:

One UI v4.1.1 shows the type of charging being used in the following two ways:

1. In the Notification panel, the charging type displays for the first five (5) seconds (e.g. “Fast charging started”

After the first five (5) seconds, the device will only display “Charging” regardless of the type of charging being used

2. From the Lock screen, the Battery icon and the remaining charging time for a full charge will show for the first five (5) seconds

After the first five (5) seconds, the device will display only the charging icon

If the phone is slow charging or will not charge, this article contains several steps that may correct the concern. https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/mobile-devices/my-device-is-charging-slowly-not-switching-on-or-k...

In the event the phone is not charging and troubleshooting is not helpful, it is recommended to have the phone evaluated at an authorized service location. You can use the following link to find a list of service centers in the U.S. that can do the repair: http://www.samsung.com/us/support/service/location

@NatureBoiyy No problem fast charging my Fold 4. Often the charger or cable is at fault. Have you tried swapping out both?

Yea I've tried multiple cables and different bricks. It'll display "Fast Charging" then it just reverts back to just "Charging" Idk what the problem is

My Fold 4 does show fast charging for a brief moment and then just shows changing and time. I did tests by turning on/off fast charge in settings and charge time increases. This makes me believe that device is charging fast.

Mine does the same as you describe. I'm using a Samsung charger and the cord it came with. I had no problems super fast charging my previous phone

I've noticed that my new fold 4 will start fast charging for a few seconds only after that it will just charge. No idea why even when fast charge is enabled

i've tried different chargers and still nothing

Same thing is happening to me. I've tried the 45w charger thinking that the 25w wasn't working properly. It was the same outcome. I even tried my other cables and nothing. This has to be a software bug
