Samsung S4 taking most of the day to charge

Anonymous
Not applicable

Had my S4 back in September 2014. Started having problems with battery expansion in March 2015, contacted samsung (I had a faulty battery) battery was replaced all was well. This last week I've noticed the battery is taking forever to charge. If someone could please suggest some ideas (hopefully I've added something I shouldn't?), I don't think it's the battery again, could it be the wall charger? Any info gratefully received TIA

When the battery problem first came to light Samsung insisted all phones went back to them for an inspection.
After a while they just started sending out batteries because the majority of phones didn't need any other repairs.
It is possible though, that depending on how bad your battery problem was, that something else could have happened to the phone.
