    Hi all, I've searched the net for this but no luck.....my S9 used to charge with any plug (slowly obviously) but it will now only charge with official plug, with an unofficial plug it will now do one percent every 30 minutes or so, battery dying? Is it worth replacing the battery? I know it's old in phone terms but it does me fine, thanks

    If the battery charges with the official plug, I can't see it being a battery issue. All chargers have an output rating that should tell you how much it will output. I'd suggest another good quality charger, and try swapping cables also.

    You can install an app on your phone called ampere, which will show you live data about charging speed, should be useful to tell instantly how fast it is charging.
