Google Pixel XL is a high-end smartphone manufactured by the renowned tech giant Google, boasting numerous powerful features that have made it a formidable competitor against Apple and Samsung. However, no device is without its flaws. One such common issue revolves around charging. In this article, Mytour will walk you through various methods to address charging issues on Google Pixel and Pixel XL when users face this problem.
Ways to fix charging issues on Google Pixel and Pixel XL
1. Checking Battery Charge
The first thing you should do is check your charger. Usually, we observe signal lights on phone chargers; when the charge is full, it switches to green. If you find that your phone indicates it's fully charged but the signal light on the charger remains red, it means the battery signal on the phone is inaccurate. Try unplugging the charger and wait for about 30 minutes. If the battery level drops rapidly, it indicates an issue with your operating system. In this case, try turning off and restarting your phone.
2. Verify Power Source, Cable, and Charging Port
Try checking by using a Google pixel or pixel XL charger for other phone models to determine if the issue is caused by the charger or not. Additionally, when charging your phone, always ensure to check if the power source is connected or not to avoid situations where you plug in the charger but overlook details such as loose connection between the phone and the charger port, or the charging port not making contact with the power source. This can result in your phone being charged for a long time while the battery level remains in the red.
3. Checking Using USB Port
Disconnect the USB port from the charger and connect your Google Pixel XL phone to the computer via the USB port. Wait for a few minutes, then disconnect the cable from the phone. If you see the battery icon on the phone indicating charging status along with a red notification light on the device, it means your battery is definitely having issues and you may need to replace it.
4. Google Pixel XL Screen Issues
If you don't see the battery icon or red light after plugging in your Pixel phone, it's likely that your screen is having issues. To resolve this, press and hold the power button for about 30 seconds and wait for 2 minutes, then have another phone call your Google Pixel and make sure the phone rings.
5. Utilizing Safe Mode on Google Pixel and Pixel XL Phones
In Safe mode, third-party apps installed on the phone are disabled. With this method, you can determine whether the issue is caused by installed apps or not. To activate Safe mode on Google Pixel and Pixel XL phones, follow these steps:
Step 1: Press and hold the power button, then a window will appear on the phone screen with 2 options to power off (Power off) or restart the device (Restart).
Step 2: Next, press and hold the Power off menu until the screen displays the option to restart the device in Safe mode and press OK.
After your phone finishes booting up, pay attention to the top left corner of the screen where you'll notice the words Safe mode, indicating that your phone is running in Safe mode.

It's completely separate; you can access Recovery mode even if the device encounters hardware and software problems. Follow these steps to enable Recovery Mode on Google Pixel and Pixel XL phones.
Step 1: Power off your Google Pixel and Pixel XL phones completely. Restart your phone, simultaneously press the volume and power buttons until the screen turns on.
