SLOW and WEIRD when charging
 

This is my second day with the Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic 4g on Sprint network, and I'm having a really weird issue when the phone charges.

When it's charging, the phone is extremely slow, and only responds to about 1/10 of my interaction with the screen. Sometimes when I press one thing on the screen, it opens another and does something completely different as if it had a mind of its own. When texting, I may press one letter, and then it thinks I pressed like 5 other letters.

However, when I unplug the phone, it is extremely fast and works perfectly.

I hope that this is clear, as it's somewhat difficult to explain. There is something going on WHILE IT IS CHARGING to make it buggy/laggy/slow/weird. I don't know if it's some sort of power saving setting or what.

Please help! Thanks.

Seems like this only happens to me when charging at a low battery level. Once the battery level rises a bit, the phone acts normal.

Re: SLOW and WEIRD when charging
 

Are you using the charger that came with the phone or a 3rd party charger? A lot of times 3rd party chargers will charge the phone at a different voltage and mess up the screen responsiveness.

Just read on another forum that you should turn the screen off before plugging in the charger to prevent this unresponsiveness.

Unfortunately, it doesn't matter what % my battery is at. Also, I'm using the charger that came with the phone, and also it doesn't seem to matter whether or not the screen is on or off when I plug the charger in. I'm actually charging the phone right now, and the phone is at ~40% battery and it is still acting completely crazy. I go to type a text and I hit "I" and then it like decides to hit 5 other letters and then SWYPE starts going nuts etc. etc. etc. It doesn't matter also if I'm texting, or doing something else on the phone. It goes crazy.

Please help!!!
