I recently gave my Father my old M51 after upgrading to the S23+ but we hit upon a very weird problem.

The M51 doesn't charge when I used its original 25W charger (USB C-C cable) and my brand new 25W charger for the S23+ (both chargers and cables work fine on the S23+ though, so its probably not a charger problem),
but when I charged the M51 with my Xiaomi 67W charger (USB A-C cable) it worked fine but it's slow because it doesn't support SFC Technology for Samsung. I was also able to charge it by using my Buds Pro charging cable(USB A-C) with a powerbank.

I find it weird that my non-Samsung chargers can charge it but actual Samsung chargers couldn't lmao.

Is there anyone here with a similar problem? Any solutions? I had already soft rebooted the device with no effect.

Hello DogmanCow776,

Thanks for letting us know your difficulty using your beloved Samsung Galaxy M51 having charging issues while using the 25w charger. I feel and understand why you are worried for a device that you've take care so much. If my device is facing similar experience, I will get worried too.

Before you try out the below recommendations as to your solution, be sure to check if your device's software are updated with the latest version. Please check how to update your mobile device's software in the following order.

 

Step 1. Go to Settings > Software update.

Step 2. Tap on Download and install

Step 3. Follow the on-screen instructions.

 

Please inspect and check the charging port of your device for any obstructions, dust, etc. and wipe it clean with the soft cloth. Then, try charging it again. Make sure to use only genuine Samsung charger, adaptor, cable and accessories while charging. If the device is still not charging, then unplug it and don't use it for a while.

 

If that doesn't solve the issue(s), you may submit an error report through the Samsung Members app as follows:

 

Step 1. Launch the Samsung Members app, and then tap the Support icon for more options.

Step 2. Scroll and select Error reports.
