After update - won't charge?

My cable is orange when it is plugged in - but it is not charging. In Device Info it says "not charging" so it is not discharging, but definitely not charging. I downloaded the update via my laptop and transferred it to the nook via the nook cable. The USB port has been a little "wonky" always....

 

Anyone else having this problem with not charging??

Is the USB cable connected to your computer or to the power adapter?

Samsung Garnet Red Galaxy Tab2 (7.0"): Android 4.1.1 rooted
Acer Iconia A500 (two): Android 4.0.3 rooted;; Nook Color: B&N 1.4.3 rooted
Nook Touch (two): B&N 1.2.1 rooted; Nook 1stEd/3G (two): B&N 1.7.0 rooted.

 I have mine plugged into an outlet on my BackUPS unit at my desk  at this moment and it is charging as usual. Check your connections.  Maybe there is something going on there.

The road goes ever on.....

If your NC is connected to your laptop via the USB cable, it will still not charge even though you updated to ver 1.2.0. This is because the USB cable has 2 pins used exclusively with the adapter that came with the NC. You must connect it to the charging adapter.

If it aint broke, don't fix it.

I charge mine on my PC as I lost the wall adapter. It always says not charging but it does eventually change from orange to green. I leave mine overnight but have had it fully charged from a warning after plugging in at 12.30 a.m. and unplugging it at just after 7.00 a.m. so for sure over 80% charge in under 7 hrs. Don't intend to get up any earlier to see how fast it can charge on the PC
