I have a Vodafone smart prime 6 and today as I put it to charge it was around 20-30% after around 4-5hours it was at 41% and said it needed 7hours to finish charging . I thought it was kind of odd but I though eh it probably is nothing. Then after another 3 hours charging the phone was at 44% saying that 34hours are needed to be fully charged. 34 HOURS???that is surely not normal any ideas?

use a 1a/2.4a charger (not your pc basically)

use another charging cable

Ryzen 5 3600 stock | 2x16GB C13 3200MHz (AFR) | GTX 760 (Sold the VII)| ASUS Prime X570-P | 6TB WD Gold (128MB Cache, 2017)

Samsung 850 EVO 240 GB 

138 is a good number.

at 500mA, that battery should be full in 5-6 hours, not 34 o.O

at 500ma, my phone discharges while idle.

I plugged my LG G4 into a 500mA charger overnight, and it wasn't even close to full in the morning.

i'd call that a phone problem.. your phone doesnt need more than 2.5 watts on idle.

Not really.

if he receives lots of emails, messages, etc. or just has a lot of crap running in the background, it could use more than 2.5 watts with ease.

the problem is in the person who uses the phone, not the phone itself.

But the charger can charge any phone in normal speeds

Just try another charger. If that doesn't work and your battery is removable order a new one from eBay or a parts store of your choice. Maybe the battery is faulty
