Why does my phone charger make a whistle sound only at 90 percent battery?

Our answer

Coil whine can occur under changing charging load; replace a noisy or damaged charger with a certified unit.

Why this approach makes sense

Device software, permissions and connected services change how a feature behaves; use settings for the actual model rather than a generic workaround.

Before you try it

Verify the relevant device and account permissions, and make changes one at a time.
