Android Question

Hello, I have a Samsung Galaxy S and I've had it for a couple years. The phone isn't taking a charge. After using a charger for a day or two, it stops taking the charge and begins dying while it is charging.
Help?
 
I agree with Siempre.

Take the phone to your carrier's store, and see if they will let you test it with a new battery. If you can charge the phone no problem, then you have your answer.

The other problem could be that after 2 years of service, the micro USB charge port on your phone is worn out. I had a Galaxy S and a Galaxy S2 that both had this problem. After about 2 years of faithful service, they both could no longer charge using the USB port. If your phone is doing this, your choices are get a new phone, or get an external battery charger, and use that to recharge your battery.
