It charges with my standard Samsung Vibrant Phone charger. May not be fast but good to know.
It will charge over USB (connected to a computer) too. The battery indicator does not show charging, and I think you have to turn the screen off, but the battery will go up ... eventually.

Will plugging the Note into my PC via USB cable also charge Note like my iP did?
Yes it does also charge the NOTE
It will, but remember that charging USB had a slower charge rate, and also depending what your doing with your phone while charging, it might actually not recognize its charging, because the output is greater than the incoming charge and your battery level will drop.
you can't rain on my parade, I'm on the road to my fairytale!!!
It will charge fine but at the slower USB trickle rate, like most devices.

I've noticed the Galaxy S3 charges very slow via USB to comp, is that normal?
Would it be quicker via the power outlet?
I didn't think it was any different between the two though I haven't tried the outlet yet.
How do you charge yours?
Yes it is normal
Here is the internal settings for charging in S3:
-wall charger 1000mA
-USB charge 475mA
So charging your phone via USB should be longer than with wall charger
Thanks a lot mate. That makes perfect sense.
Silly me. Used to the old tablet having only a usb charger so I didn't know any better.
This SIIG INC - SYNC/CHARGING HUB AND READER FOR GALAXY TABLETS - CE-H21112-S1 gives you the capability to charge your Tab through a computer USB port. Seems to work pretty good used it last night. Checked the net prices vary per vendor.
when I plug into the pc usb port even though it shows as not charging after a while the percentage goes up, so it does d a slow charge. Does the hub give a faster charge?
charging via USB is very slow
you can switch it from data mode to charge mode.

charge mode allows a better charge rate.
I'm experiencing a slow charging experience through USB port @ my laptop as well, like at least one of the users mentioned up there... Does this allow fast charging of the battery?
When i want to charge my 7.7 overnightI usually do it thru USB. FYI slow charging is always best for the batteries.
Since i got my 7.7, i have never used the included 2000ma charger. I always use my old GNote's 1000ma charger to prolong the battery life of the 7.7 since it is not easily replaceable.

hey guys and girls
this morning i woke up and decided i was gunna plug in my s3 because it was low on battery and i wanted to play some temple run 2. phone was on about 30 percent when i put it on charge (ac charger) and when i finished playing i returned to the home screen to find my battery on 23 percent! it recognized the charger and had the charging symbol but it wouldnt charge
i unplugged it from the ac charger and have it in my computer and its gone up a percent so is it a faulty ac?
you are not the only one having problem with charging using samsung original usb cable.
try any other charger like amazon kindle charger or blackberry charger or any other that can fit yr s3. I am sure it will work for u.
my phone also does not charge using smasung cable so I use kindle charger and it charges my phone very fast. hope this helps u.
So, I've been using the Samsung Fast Wireless Charging Pad since launch of the N8. Just now, it doesn't charge my phone. I unplug and plug the cable and I see that the LED on the charger cycles from Blue to Green to Cyan. Anyone have an idea whats going on? Is it dead? I know Cyan mean it's plugged to a low voltage charger...but the lights don't stay lit.
Have you tried a different Samsung Fast charger adapter? When using the Samsung Fast charger adapter on your Note 8 does Note 8 say "Fast Charging" or low power charging? It maybe your current Samsung Fast charger adapter failing.
Have you tried a different cable?
Or it could be lower current on that AC wall outlet.
