[Windows Central Question]

Could my lumia 535 hv a charging problem or its a battery that is spoilt.. It shows that its charging but nothing is actually charged even after like 3 hours and for the battery still when charged directly.. For more than 3 hours ..doesn't charge beyond 35%.. What can I do.. Before reaching the center?

Are you using the original charger? Is it plugged into a 110V or a 220V outlet? Are your cellular signals good while charging? Are you downloading anything or using your phone while charging?

Have you tried restarting your phone?

Plug it in a different source maybe, your output may not be transmitting enough charge to positively charge the battery and show some progress on the battery meter.

Also check whether your battery has no bumps or swellings. if it you find any , you will have to replace it.
