We are sorry to hear about this. Please go to Settings>Device Care> and select Battery. On the battery screen, tap the Menu (3 dots at upper right) and select Settings. On the Settings page, scroll down to Protect Battery, and turn this off. The device will now charge to 100%.

I assume that you've rebooted it after changing the setting.  Have you tried charging it with the power off?  Same results?

Well, that is good news.   Now comes the tedious process of trial and error, starting from the most recently installed, to determine which app is causing the problem.

 

There are various options here, you could uninstall and reinstall each app and see if that cures it.  You could do a Factory reset and start reloading those apps a few at a time and see what's what.  It may be that after the reset you can reinstall all the apps and it will work just fine.

 

Good luck!
