Hi
An unusual problem this, new S3, charged it to 100% when I got it, no problems and used it up over the day. Put it on charge last night downstairs (so definitely undisturbed) at about 30% and this morning when I come down, it is at 70%, not happy! (10 plus hours for 40% charge?!)
I've had a play with it to try and find a problem. When I pick it up gently or un-sleep it the phone bleeps and says 'charging' as if i've just plugged it in. When left to charge on the side, after about 5-10mins the red 'charging' indicator light goes off and the screen comes on, as if i've unplugged it from charging. Sometimes it will again bleep and go back to charging by itself after another 5-10min.
I've checked the battery indication record and it shows a solid block of charging (presumably a few hours) followed just by a large number of small lines, as if it's been charging for 5 mins on, 10 mins off for the rest of the time.
Any suggestions?
