In the battery settings on the phone does it say it is charging via AC or USB? Are you using the charger that came with the phone? Have you tried a different charger or USB cable?

We want to get down to the bottom of the issues with charging your device, Sandracalhoun65. Are you using the original charger that came with the device? Have you tested different outlets?

Sandra,

what was the resolution?  i am experiencing the same issues.  the only charger that will work now is the Turbo Charger.  All other chargers, that have worked for the past 10 months, no longer work and actually drain the battery.

thank you!

TIMETAO -

An important accessory to any phone is a working charger. I am disappointed to learn that you're having trouble with keeping your battery charged. You mentioned you're using a Turbo Charger but what kind of phone is it? How quickly is the battery draining? How long does it take to charge?

Keep us posted!

Eric,

I have the Droid Turbo 2. The turbocharger works perfectly unfortunately

the battery drains very very quickly. All of the Chargers that they use

that are not Turbo have been using in the past Now drain the battery rather

than charge it. Every sense the last update the phone is [Removed].

Very disappointed

Tim

Thank you filling me in on more details, TIMETAO. I appreciate all the effort you’ve put into troubleshooting and going into the store. I regret seeing the store wasn’t able to get the phone working properly but I am relieved to see you have a new phone. Is everything working well on your new device? Anything else I can help with today?

Yes and no. Original charger work fine to charge it all my other chargers

which worked fine for the last year no longer worked.

Even when using the original charger the charge would not last me half a

day.

I took the phone into my local Verizon store basically they told me it was

garbage and sold me a new phone.
