Why won't my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 charge?

Why won't my Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 charge?

When I plug in my Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 to charge, there is an X over the energy symbol if there is more than 50% of charge left. If I restart my Tab when it shows it is less than 50% charged and then plug it in, it will start to charge. If I don't restart it, there is an X over the energy symbol. If the battery is completely depleted, it will still charge—but very slowly.

"Something that worked for me:

Plug the cord to your Tab first, then connect the USB cable very slowly into the PC/laptop at a gradual pace. The flash sign should appear when the USB cable is almost half inserted. Insert it completely. The Tab should then charge with a white charging icon instead of any red cross sign."

"I also experienced the same thing

Then, I tried to unplug and plug in charger quickly

'''First: Plug Charger

Second: Unplug Charger Before Mark ""X"" Appears In Battery

Third: Put Back Charger'''

This way will Work Until You Turn off Samsung Galaxy Tab

If you Turn off and Turn on Your Device

Ways That You Need to Repeat

Good luck ^.^"

I was just having this problem with red x and now I have it gone by using the weird charger it came with instead of a normal one I already had. Works now.
