[Q] Charging Galaxy S III - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello guys
Just a small question: Can I use my Note 10.1 charging adapter to charge my Galaxy S III using its USB cable? I mean, can I connect Galaxy S III USB cable to Note 10.1 adapter, then use it as charger to my Galaxy S III?
Thank you

Output of i9300 charger is 5V - 1000mA. You can check the Note 10.1 adapter to see if it fits. If the output < 1000mA, it's still okay, just takes long to fully charged.

No, it is 2 Amp (2000 mAmp)

yes you can use it, your phone will charge faster than normal rate and I thing there is a limitation in the galaxy s3 that it will charge with 1000mA with AC adapter and 475mA with USB. If I were you, I would give it a try with my FULL observation on it for first 10 to 15 min...

Charging P7500 with HTC phone charger. Is it safe?

Hello, I have a HTC phone and I wonder if it is safe to charge my P7500 tab.
The phone charger characteristics are:
Input: 100-240V/200 mA
Output: 5V/1A
Thank you!
Hi,
The GT charger output is rated at 5V at 2amps. It's important for the voltage to be 5V! But the current (Amps) must never be less than 2amps!
So your HTC charger at 1 Amp is too low, and will cause problems with the charger (might burn out and get super hot = dangerous..
NOpe
I dont recommend my friend at all. low amp
Mickey
I think I can not !
My Gtab Sch-i905 will ONLY charge when plugged into the charge block it came with. will not charge any other way unless it is powered off. I HATE THAT.
Dangerous!!!!

S2 charger will be ok but your phone will charge slower. I think S2 charger has 0.7A capacity and S3 charger is 1A capacity.
Although there are no effects on battery with S2 charger.

S2 manufacturer charger should work just fine - only a little slower - but keep in mind that is a very good thing for the number of cycles that your battery will be able to take - the slower the better since the battery ages less
S1 works fine for me, and BlackBerry charger
I charge mine on LG, Sony, Samsung, HTC.. No problem whatsoever

Charging S2 with iPhone AC adapter?

I got my S2 AC charger lost. Can I charge my S2 with my iPhone 4's AC adapter, and with Samsung's usb cable? Won't it burn my phone, or do some serious problems?

It will be fine. Your phone won't explode.
It won't harm your phone physically but your galaxy s2 can be affected mentally. It may suicide or become deppresive after an apple charger.
I've been using an iPhone charger (i had one lying around don't judge me) for a couple of months and nothing has gone wrong so you should be fine.

Hi,
I did not understood your question. is your question is "is 3-4 hours is normal charge time for your phone?
I have the 9205 MEGA 6.3 and it looks like this is about the right charging time with the original power supply (Charger).
I check on the samsung USB charger and this is a 5v / 250Ma chargeur. I replaced the charger by a old USB Blackerry charger 5v / 500Ma and it is charging now in less than 3 hours.
Did somone try a 1A charger to see if it is faster??
Thank you.
use a samsung charger
When u use a samsung charger with it. Charging is faster. I for one use the plug alone with by blackberry usb (cos its longer) but if I use any other charger. .. thats some pretty slow charging id be experiencing so I go everywhere with the charger in my backpack

Usually mine charges fully in 2 his or less.

[Q] Galaxy Mega 6.3 EXTREMELY slow charging.

My wife has a 3 month old Galaxy Mega 6.3 and it will not charge correctly. It will not change when it's on enough to keep it on. Last night I had her charge it while it was off and after 12 hours it was only at 48%. We have tried new chargers, new cords, taking the battery out for a while, nothing is working. Any ideas? It's completely stock, no root.
Hi .. make sure that your chargers output power is 2.0A don't use chargers with 1.0A or 0.7A output or it will charge slowly .. and try to use a short cable ..shorter is faster .. If this didn't help maybe the problem is with the battery it self buy a new one

Yeah, we used an oem charger and cable and a charger that puts out 5v and all the same charge rate
I think 5v is too much & dangerous for the phone maybe it'll ruin your battery

Hi..the original charger for the mega 6.3 is 5v with a 2.0A charging rate, can you test another battery from a friend to see if it is the battery.
I literally have never seen anyone with a mega besides her lol. My next plan was a new battery, but I didn't think a 3 month old phone should need one yet.

Maybe go to your carrier were you got the phone and explain what has happened and maybe they can give you a new battery or if it is a hardware problem..they can maybe give you a new phone.

She bought it outright unlocked, so I guess we would have to go right to Samsung?

Hello SumCanadianGuy
To be sure to get fast charge with most Samsung smartphones, you need an original Samsung charger AND a fully connected (4 wire) USB cable.
Charger outputs 5.3 to 5.7V and pin 2 and pin 3 (data pins) are shortened together inside the charger to indicate the phone that he can draw fast charge current.
All my original Samsung wall chargers are rated only 1A. It doesn't mean that they can't output more current for a short time. I get fast charge every time.
If either your charger isn't an original with pins 2 & 3 shortened, or your cable has no data connections, you won't ever get fast charge. By example, if you try to use a powerful 2A or more iPad charger with your Mega, you won't get fast charge, just because the other world doesn't conform to USB
If you can, try an original Samsung wall charger with an original Samsung usb to micro usb cable.
Hope this helps
I have same problem with my Samsubg Galaxy Mega 6.3
I tried everything (change battery, cable, charger) but nothing help.
Charging is slow but during all night it could charge to almoat 100%
It only could be hardware failure...
If you want to see power of charging install app Galaxy Charging Current Lite.
Power of charging should be 1900 mA and I could get only 300 mA...
