After flashing my ROM I can no longer charge my battery thru the phone. I have tried both connected to a wall outlet and USB to my computer, neither work and now the battery is dead.
Does anyone know of a desktop stand alone charger that will just charge the battery?
Maybe...
The battery in the my Cingular 8125 is a WIZA16. I believe, but not 100% sure that this battery is the same as a O2 or iMate.
The iMate has a docking station and 2nd battery charger.

Might work but not sure.
Here is the link that I found for the connection

$50 bucks, it is a bit of risk, but better than nothing.
I been looking like crazy and all I found were as high as 850mAh for the Droid Charger. Anyone found any other than the Stock Charger?
I use an old Nokia wall charger. The output is 550 mA. It works just fine. The way I see it is that its a higher output than just charging it through a computer and less than the stock wall charger.
The slower you can charge a Lithium-Ion battery, the better.

I need the faster you charge the lower the charge and wears out battery faster
if you do want a FAST Charge, then you got it with high output it'l kill your battery but.. there is an upside.. if you charge on fast charge..
then drain it 15 precent charge again you'll have similar effects of a long slow charge
The Apple charger is a 1000 mAh charger.

apple phones also have crap battery time
I use an old Motorola charger because the cord is longer... charging it on the computer USB takes FOREVER!!! It is from a ROKR E8 and I think it says 650mAH The stock charger that came with the Slide is 1A and my GF's charger for her CLIQ XT is 850mAH.....
I use them all, does it really make a difference?
And how so I condition the battery because I get horrible battery life
I've just started using my S3 in my car connected to a car charger and have started noticing it gives the phone a super charge which means that I still have about 80% battery after about 6 hours use, this compared to around 50% battery if I was just to use my normal charger.
However my normal charger has a splitter cable on it which also charges my spare battery which is in a Samsung desk stand (sold as a Extra battery kit). It got me thinking can chargers give a different level of charge to a battery, even though they still 100% charge it?

Yes, several custom kernels have settings to adjust mains and usb charging currents
so, isn't it clear that questions go in the questions section?
I wasn't to sure if the post was going to include a question before I posted it, but if its a problem delete it or whatever I'm not really bothered.
is there any tw 4.4.2 kernel with fast charge ? my note 3 is charging very slow from usb ( dont want to bring the wall charger everywhere i go )

Correct me if I'm wrong but I didn't know fast charge was Kernel specific. Thought it had to do with the cable and plug in?
Any-ways, my two cents are no there is NOT.
With the fast charge app that looks like a battery it is kernel spefic. When u run the application it will either work or say kernel is not supported
The output of a typical computer USB port is a half an amp at five volts DC. If you get a charger, wall or cigarette plug, that is meant for an iPad, it will output 2.1 amps at five volts. It's best, for the battery life and phone, if you don't use a modded kernel for fast charging. Batteries last longer, overall life before replacing them, if they are slow charged. Heat from rapid charging will reduce the overall lifespan of a battery. I'm talking tech like in one hour or less chargers for AA batteries but it still holds true for lithium ion. Heat and hitting a battery hard with an aggressive charging circuit will kill a battery faster. My suggestion is to use a charger that has a max output of 2.1amps, like used with the stock and iPad chargers, to recharge the battery if you're impatient. Better yet, get an official Samsung external charger with battery so you can rotate batteries and have one charging or charged without forcing yourself to have the phone tethered to a charger often. There have been high profile instances where extended capacity batteries have burned up a phone, when charging, because the electronics of the battery were crap or the cells were of crappy quality. Be safe, be smart. Samsung OEM batteries might be expensive and low run time, but they won't usually cause a phone to go into meltdown mode because of their subpar electronics or cells.
As the title states my battery mod fails to charge on charges other than turbo charger, has anyone had luck with working with a different charger?
Mine charges fine on a generic USB-C charger. It's obviously slower, but it works.
I thought I was having the same problem a couple of days ago. It looked like the phone was only charging and the Incipio power pack wasn't. The internal phone battery reached 100% but the mod was showing 0%. I decided to just leave it and surely enough it was charging, just really really slowly. I was using a normal portable charger with a USB-C cable as I was away from home. It takes a very long time to charge both using this setup. Then again, I've found that the battery pack in general takes a long time to charge in comparison to the phone even when using the supplied turbo charger.

I wonder if anyone else has this issue? I have the Tumi power pack wireless charging battery mod and it charges extremely. I'm using the stock 30w Turbo charger that came with the phone. I loaded up Amphere and the rate I was getting was 290 mah.
I've noticed that while using the phone while charging, when the phone is @100 & [email protected], every time the phone drops to 99 it stops charging the pack and then charges the phone. So, I will just pop the battery on a wireless charger or not use my phone while charging the battery. I have this cool qi/qc3.0 hub that makes charging my phone AND battery a breeze, so that's what I will often do.
Hello I have Moto Z and the Incipio power. It was charging before with phone with the type c charger which come with box but now I don't know the reason the Incipio doesn't charge !! when connect the Incipio give me notification with 97% and after 3 sec it is 0% and not charging from the power or charging the phone same also when power off the phone !! Could you please advise?
Using the official turbocharger provided by Motorola, the Battery pack and the phone battery will both charge at the same time. I have noticed using a generic charger/USB-C cable via the PC to charge, it charges the phone battery first and then only will charge the battery pack (once the phone reaches 100%). That is my experience...
