Troubleshooting Charging Problems in Mi Note 5
There are different problems responsible to cause charging issues in your Mi Note 5. First, your device battery is completely drained up, and it has enough power left to charge up for a few minutes.

- Find out if it is charging, despite slow, when current passes from the PC to its circuits
- Find out if your PC can recognize the device
With the help of these things, you can figure out whether charger, phone, or USB cable has the problem. You can rest assured that cable is okay if your PC is detecting the device and connection is stable in the USB port of your device and your device responds to the PC. Here, the charger must be faulty.
On the other side, if your device is not detected by the computer, the problem might be with USB port of your device or USB cable that comes with the charger. You may hold your device at certain angles while it is plugged into the system, and see if your PC can detect the device. If so, USB port is loose in your device.
Or you may try using other USB cable to see if your device is detected by the PC. If it still not detects, there must be hardware problem and you have to bring your device to the service center.

Step 2 – Try charging the device
If you are confident that phone didn’t have any liquid or physical damage, plug it into the charger and leave it for 10 minutes and try to turn it on.

Find out if your device responds when you plug it in from the source of power.
