Battery is only charging in Recovery Mode after update to Lollipop

Hello everybody.

I had an official update (OTA) from 4.4.2 to 5.1.1 on my Samsung Galaxy S5 and everything is working well but one thing:

The battery is only charging while in recovery mode.

Regardless whether the Phone is turned on or turned off: The battery won't charge outside recovery mode.

USB-Debugging or other changes in the settings (in Developer-Settings or non-developer settings) won't affect or change this situation in any ways.

Its a original, stock ROM from Samsung. But i already tried to switch to Custom ROMs or back to Android KitKat (stock ROM), but the problem still stays the same and I wonder why.

Maybe there is some kind of remaining data that I can't remove?

I'm down with my nervesand knowledge...

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
