I studied my galaxy note 10.1. when i use the original wall charger it charges well, fast an no red cross appears. when i hook it to the usb of my laptop then the red cross apears and the tab reports that it is not on battery ( look at the time on battery it does not change) the battery also remains at the same charge level that it was when i hooked it up. when i use the car charger it does the same as with the laptop. my conclusion is that when hooked to the car and/or laptop the battery does not charge, but the tablet is running of the power from the external source and not the battery. this seems to be a very clever move from samsung to preserve the battery when it cannot be charged by the device it is hooked up to.

Hi toledomayor ,
This could be a manufacturing defect , in this case you would require to contact the manufacturer or the relevant service center for a replacement of a faulty cell phone.
This should not be a problem with any cell phone regardless of the brand , the most that can happen is that the battery goes empty , but as far as the case you have described is concerned , it's seems to be like a one off manufacturing defect..
Hope this helps...:)
