It sounds like your cord is working fine, since you see that it is trying to charge.

First, is it 'on' while you are trying to charge it? If so, try turning it off and then charging. If that solves your problem, then you probably have an app that is draining your power quickly, or even an app that is being malicious.

So if you are under warranty still, please contact the manufacturer about repairing or replacing it.

If you aren't under warranty, then you can either replace the battery yourself (many videos online explain how to do so) or you can take it to a local tech or samsung repair to get it changed out.
