PROBLEM 1: Galaxy Note 5 “Dock Is Connected” Message And Fast Charging Not Working

“Dock Is Connected” Message – If you are getting Power Sharing pop-up then the best thing that you can do is uninstall or disable all Samsung-related apps especially those that are associated with Power Sharing. Power Sharing is an app that will let you share your battery power to another device with the help of a special cable from Samsung. If you don’t want this product, simply force close or disable the app.

To disable and close all the applications, follow these steps

• Go to Settings
• Go to the Applications
• Select Manage all applications
• Tap the All tab
• Look for power sharing app
• Just force stop and disable it

Fast Charging- Lithium-based battery charging process takes place in phases and you will notice fast charging occurring only in the initial and final phases. If you are facing some charging problems, switch to another fast charger first. If that doesn’t change anything, the issue may actually be battery-related which is hardware in nature. Contact Samsung for a possible battery replacement or repair.
