Hi Marie. With my phone I haven't had those kind of issues. The only problem I've faced is that the battery seems to last a lot less now (understandable, given the fact that the cellphone is a little old now) Did you try using another charger, cable or even a computer? If so, and the problem persists, it could be: 1. the battery or 2. the actual port of the phone. For #1 I've seen some batteries not that expensive in Amazon, but again, if the problem is #2 you may want to look for a technician or start searching for another phone.These things are sturdy, but unfortunately, nothing nowadays is designed to last more than 2-3 years. I'm sorry if I can't be more helpful.Bye. Hi Marie. With my phone I haven't had those kind of issues.

have you tried a new charging cable? could be the jack in the phone too, but try new cable or cord first

The USB ports on all of these phone can go bad due to strain on the connection causing the ports connection to the logic board to become flaky - planned obsolescence.

i think you should start with trying another charger. since its a micro-usb port it shouldnt be too much of a problem finding one. you should also try different sockets... the electrical output may differ a little bit. if the problem still persists, i assume its the battery. try discharging it and (however) charge it again up to 100%. your next option would be buying another battery... good luck!

No it doesn't work, it freezes, goes off and on whenever it pleases and doesn't always get calls and texts. Not worth the $. And I don't think it comes with a charger, not 100% on that though.

It's possible, yeah. I thought the issue I was having with my phone not taking a charge was because of the batteries, so I replaced them, but that didn't fix it. If your phone is working, don't worry about it. If it won't take a charge, try replacing them. I ended up having to replace my handsets all together.

It's a slow charge so it may take a while, try leaving it for 2 hours then see if the problem exists . If it still don't charge then send it back you may have a defect .I just got may replacement.

I suggest that you contact the seller and let them know that you have a defective device. I did this and they emailed me a shipping label and returned my money. Mine would only charge my phone 10% then it died.

I'm having the same problem. Charger works fine--phone doesn't. Need to replace one satellite phone. Probably can't get without charging base.

Please charge the phone for atleast 12 hrs initially and keep the power button pressed for a minute and then release. The phone takes a few minutes to start up. Also if you phone is on the charging wire please take it off charge and then try. Also check if the terminals have not got a small tape on them. Please check with both battery if needed.

Our phone had the same problem with the charging port.That's the main reason why we bought this.It does charge into a wall outlet.

The red light should turn on. Perhaps you don't have it set well? That happened to me. It took some twisting and turning to get the light to come on. Check the phone. It should show the phone charging if it is working properly.

Mine won't charge anymore either. I think the product may be defective. How are you charging your device?

The same thing happened with me. Thankfully, I was able to get another charger and it'll charge it it's sitting a certain way. I cannot text or even touch the phone while it's charging, though.

Check your charging cable and (if applicable) the USB Wall Jack. I had this issue a while back, where the wall jack connector was not providing constant power (it'd provide it in a pulsing fashion). I later had a bad cable. Once I replaced the bad cable, it started charging with no issues.

Well, the first month I tought something was wrong with this cellphone, didn't take charge, overheat, etc. but I discovered the problem, and that was the charger; once I replaced with a Samsung's, it started to work properly. I wish this can help...
