Battery only charging very very slowly

Hi Welcome to the forum.

  • You can do a battery test by dialling *#*#66#*#* then Service test > TestSingle > Battery status check.

  • I would advise against calibrating as described via the link in the previous post as you can’t charge it yet. For example The iFixIt site recommends

    • Charge it to 100%, and keep charging it for at least two more hours.
    • Use your device until it shuts off due to low battery.
    • Charge it uninterrupted to 100%.
  • Try and find another person with an FP3 to see it will work in their phone etc. maybe you can find a fairphoneangel near you to help

  • That the charger and cable work elsewhere is no a guarantee either will work with the FP3 even if they have done so in the past.

  • You may like to check the FP3 usb port for debris

  • It could be poor contacts between the modules, you may like to check that.
