A couple days ago I started having issues when plugging in my s8 where it wouldn't quick charge. Kept replugging it and eventually it worked. Today it stopped working completely. Tried multiple chargers.

Yes, quick charge is enabled.
I tried clearing the cache.
I finally did a full factory reset and that didn't help either.

Any ideas?

Try cleaning out the port (by blowing on it or with forced air).

A family member had that, aside from blowing out the charging port with compressed air not much you can do. Use a wireless charged for now (I have extra for free you can PM me).

Eventually it show go away, give it a few weeks.

You can change the Whatsapp thing to show the number under settings.

It only shows if someone quotes me or if an Unmuted group sends a message. Once I read 1 group the app icon doesn't display the total unread
