Hi guys, just got my SGS3 today : D
One thing that I'm not quite sure is the stock charger is only a 0.15A
Can anyone else confirm that?
It would charge so slow with it..
Just check mine:
Output: 5.0V 1.0A
No it's definitely 1A because it takes under 2.5 hours for full charge, so try a different charger to see if your's is faulty.
just read it again, the input is 0.15a
the output is indeed 1a!
Thanks guys!

Hi guys,
Well i have a TyTN for a year by now and when i have purchased my phone, on very first day i`ve lost my charger
So here is my question, i`ve tried 2 different charges, one belongs to motorola phones with mini usb port, and other one is gigabyte g-smart charger (the one i bought before TyTN and not working now). Motorola charger can not charge my TyTN, but G-Smart charger can do it. But when the battery is fully discharged, G-Smart charger also can not start charging my device, only way i can start charging is to connect my tytn to my computer..
I want to ask you guys the output voltage and ampere value of the OEM TyTN charger, which is the most important thing about the chargers. For example Motorola charger gives out 4.8 Volts with 350 mAmpers (0.35 A) and i guess this is not enough to charge my tytn becaouse it is not working on my tytn. Can anybody tell me the values of the oem charger?
Output: 5V @ 1A LPS
I'm pretty sure that answers your question, I don't know much about this.
5V 1A
wow pretty much for a cell phone...
have you felt how much the hermes feels like a 3 bar fire when it's charging p
(if you're buying from ebay, buy the 2AMP versions so you know you have a little bit spare... just my opinion but cheap import charger's probably don't provide quite what they say they do... Also if you run a charger at 100% it's output 100% of the time i would think it's less likley to last as long as one runnign at only 50%)
(don't forget you also need to do the charging pin cable hack if you get a cig lighter to USB adapter or you'll end up with the one charge per reset bug...)
I've charged my Herm200 with various chargers, mains and car-based from 500mA to 1.5A with no difficulties. It seems to be a fairly resilient charging circuit. The lower current chargers don't charge the device very fast (or at all, in some cases) with TomTom running though.
thanx guys you have been very helpful, but i have an gigabyte g-smart i128 and it has a USB chager too. which is 5V 700mAh. And when i plug it into my hermes, a yellow led flashes for few times then nothing... It does not charge it. This i found strange. Well it charges my gigabyte pda well. But i dont think there is something wrong with my hermes too because usb sync cable charges well.
Hi.
A while back I got one of the supposedly oem wall-to-mini-usb chargers for my MDA off of ebay, it worked fine until yesterday and then the miniusb plug end came apart and won't go back together right. Cheap pos.. and it was cheap.
So one of my buddies gave me a spare charger but before plugging it into my MDA I thought I'd see if I was going to make the battery or the phone explode 1st.
The "oem" one (Cellet) that worked until it broke says
INPUT: 100-240V 47-63Hz 0.2A
OUTPUT: 4.5 - 9.5V MAX 0.8A
The Motorola one says
INPUT: 100-240V 50/60Hz 0.15A
OUTPUT: 5.0V 550mA
I am really bummed about the price for a 'real' one from T-Mobile store, it's like 25/30 bucks, so I hope this will be ok, but I wanted to get the advice from the experts here.
Please and thanks!

Well the input part means what input it will take and they are both just about the same.
Now the output should be alright the first charger gave 800mA output current whereas this one gives 550mA but that shouldnt be a problem and the output voltage is about right aswell. So i think it should be fine! But dont blame me if it explodes!!! (eventhough i think there is next to no chance of that!!)
Good luck!
Both are perfectly safe, and well within the limits of the output of a standard USB 2.0 port. However, neither puts out enough current to jolt a truly dead wizard battery back to life...the Cellet comes closer at .8A. OEM Wizard chargers have a 1 amp output. Don't run your phone completely dead, and you won't have any problem using either of these chargers, providing they stay in one piece long enough to charge your phone...
hi,
i lost my original charger and would like to buy replacement. which can be not htc.
what are technical characteristics of the original charger?
mA, V?
i need with european plug.
thanks!
43 ones read the post and no one replyed. Cmon?! don't you have a charger near you? what are mA and V of the htc original 3part charger?
You can't expect people to reply within 7 minutes of posting a thread Give eBay a go, it'll be your best shot. I've got loads of extra chargers, but they have a US plug (not that hard to get a converter btw, super cheap).
Hope this helps http://cgi.ebay.com/EURO-AC-mini-US...ries?hash=item3ca4fc9c2b&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
I've lost the orginal charger somewhere, and I was not able to find an original replacement. I successfully tried both following, but I use the second one:
1) Sony AC-U50A: Input Voltage 100 240 V 50/60 Hz, Rated Output Voltage: DC 5.0 V, Rated Output Current: 500 mA (http://www.sony.it/product/paa-ac-adaptors/ac-u50a)
2) Philips SCM2280/05: Voltage Required: AC 100-240 V, Voltage Provided: 5.6 V, Output Current: 500 mA (http://www.consumer.philips.com/c/power-solutions/universal-usb-charger-scm2280_05/prd/gb/)

Be careful with other chargers, they can actually hurt your device. If i'm correct, original HD chargers charge at 1000 mA, not 500. There've been several complaints with Motorla and Nokia chargers that end up messing the battery and the device so just a heads up.

Hi,
I know how to search the ebay or dealextreme.com. If you read my first post it asks for electrical characteristics:
what are technical characteristics of the original charger?
mA, V?
And not "where to find or how to use ebay search".
Thanks for your response.

Could you (or anybody else) confirm that original charger has a label 1000mA on the back?
Bulka..
Manau visi HTC pakrovejai yra 5V 1A. Turejau P3300 ten irgi buvo 5V/1A, dabar HD irgi tas pats...
I think all HTC chargers are rated 5V 1A. My previuos Artemis charger also was 5V/1A, same is for HD charger.

Ačiū. Ieškosiu reiškia 1A pakrovėjo. Maniškis atrodė taip pat kaip nuotraukoje.
Big thanks goes to golfietis!!!
500mA isnt the cause of the charge issue on other phones.
500mA is what PC USB sockets give, and will mearly take twice as long to charge your battery than a 1000mA (1A) charger.
voltage is the dangerous value here, but anything using USB-type connector should be 5v.

Hi
this is what I experience with my new Galaxy S3:
My main charge + USB -> microusb cable used to charge the S3, now it won't (the battery does flash for a few seconds as if it was charging but then it stops)
I need to plug the phone to my laptop to get it charged and it takes far longer!
Has anyone solved the issue?
Thanks a lot

Faulty or loose charge point/charger? There is no issue with charging in the phone itself.
Edit: You just ended up making 2 identical threads
already ordered a charger that matches the s3's specs i.e.
model: ETAOU81EBE
Input: 100-240V ~
Frequency: 50-60Hz 0.15A
Ouput: 5.0V 1.0A
currently only modele available that does it is the ETAOU81EBE.
I'm wating for it.
sorry for double post.

I'm facing the same issue. I'm unable to charge via the mains adaptor.
Yesterday I was facing this issue at around 30%. I let the battery drain to around 10% and charging was successful.
However, I'm now unable to charge via AC mains. Please help.
The phone shows "Charging" for a brief 10 seconds period and then the charging signal turns off.
I have tried the same with other chargers eg. Galaxy Ace's charger, in vain. I have tried charging another phone with my AC charger, and it works without a hitch.
question already asked...please search before posting..

And the answer to the question, software update fixes it in my case but you could try another temp fix, remove the battery from your phone (don't select power off from the phone just directly remove the battery)....keep it removed for a minute or two and the put it back and the plug the charger with the phone still OFF!!
another question on the same topic, i had the same issues with my charger, brought it back to the store and he said he could send it in or just give me a SGS II adapter which is safe (according to him).
would it also be safe to just use the wall adapter from my previous phone the HTC Desire HD? Its alot sleeker in switzerland than the samsung ones
It has exactly the same stats on the back:
Input: 100-240V ~200mA 50-60Hz
Output: 5V --- 1A

It should be safe as these are the same specs as an s3 charger (but the specs of the charger he is given you are not those of an S2 charger: S2's are
input: 100-240V ~200mA 50-60Hz
Output: 5V --- 0.7A
I was wondering if my blackberry Car charger for my old 8520 could charge my SGS3.
Its rated output: Dc 5v=500ma would this damage my phone.

It will be fine. However the S3 requires 1A output. 500mA is half of that. So the S3 will take double the time to charge.
