It appears that the culprit behind Samsung smartphones sometimes believing that the core temperature of their batteries is below 4°C, even when they are in tropical areas, is a faulty thermistor that reads the battery’s temperature as either too high or too low, causing the charging process to pause. Not being able to charge one’s smartphone, a device integral to the average person’s everyday life, is definitely not something a person can tolerate. The following steps can be utilized by individuals to prevent their Android devices from halting charging and displaying the “Charging paused: Battery temperature too low” error message:
If a person happens to have a valid warranty for their device, they should simply claim the warranty and send the device to the manufacturer to be fixed. In the event that a person’s device does not have any warranty and they do not want to take the risk of opening their device, a workaround they can use is to purchase an extra battery kit and charge one battery externally while using the other one. Another viable workaround for the “Charging paused: Battery temperature too low” problem is charging the device while it is turned off, which seems to work on most devices that suffer from the issue but sacrifices device uptime.
