My ASUS ME302C tablet stopped charging the battery 2-3 weeks back. Tried various tricks but nothing worked. Finally now i am able to charge my battery by jump-start method. I removed the battery, cut the mobile charger wire, directly attached the charger wires to battery for 2 hours. This way my battery got good 40% charge. Then i put it back in tablet. And tablet worked fine.

Now the problem is the regular chargers are not charging the battery. It show the charging symbol but battery %age never goes up. Tried various adapters, wall sockets, PC/laptop nothing works.

I installed one app (current widget-battery monitor) to check battery current and found strange behavior. As soon as i put the charger (any charger) to the tablet, the current value shows 0mA, otherwise it shows 500-600mA 3.8V on 17% charge.

I think, my battery is fine as i am able to charge it with jump-start method. Also battery drains/performs normally.

Also USB Charging port should be good too (not sure on this), as i am able to transfer data through usb from tablet to computer. Plus charging symbol also shows up on tablet when the charger is plugged in.

So what is wrong, what is causing the current to read 0mA (no current) when i put the tablet to charging?
