I asking what the settings>about>battery
Shows you when using a AC charger, mine had this problem that after a minute of AC it would charge as usb(but AC charger connected ), so it was very slow.
I cleaned the usb port and changed the charger and it was fixed, but I had to charge the phone in the side of a table and the charger connected to my pcs multiplug, so the cable pointed down a bit.
My Intruder is your Liberty/aria just the new (old actually ) at&t one.

So here is my dilemma:
While on the car charger, I'm running GPS and Pandora with the screen on viewing the turn by turn directions. Well, this goes on for 2 hours. Battery down to %63....... WHILE ON THE CAR CHARGER!
I Went to Best Buy and bought a 2.1A charger to see if that helps. I charge it at night object a 2A charger from a TouchPad.
Any idea on how to actually charge this phone while I use it?

On most android devices (not sure yet if the note is the same but I think so), fast charge is enabled only in the charger has pins 2&3 shorted. So, it's not only the amperage of the charger, but also what charger. I know the Motorola car charger does this, and crappy one in my car, but I haven't had any problems running nav, pandora, and bt calls and messages.

This kind of situation is not uncommon. Many phones cannot charge as fast as you can draw power, especially with GPS going and the screen turned on. The Note's large screen only makes this worse. You might want to try turning off things that aren't essential while you're using the GPS like wifi and bluetooth.
dude your driving a 5.3 inch display while using other apps of course its gonna suck some juice i would say you return it and get an iphone lol jk
Hmph that's odd. Mines chargining while useing Pandora with Bluetooth and GPS on more than its draining. When its plugged in to the car charger does is say AC or USB in the settings?

I realize the idea that it might not charge as well during use but to drain the battery while charging to the point it would actually be dead kinda makes me nervous to own this phone regardless of hardware demand.

Yes, 5.3" screen that should stay running while being charged. Think of a laptop or tablet. How are they able to accomplish staying charged while in use.
Funny you mention iphone. I am coming from one to this. I have NEVER had an issue with charging to %100 while I use use and on a charger. Many miles I've driven with Pandora, GPS, FB, email and a bunch of other stuff going on, hence why I question the validity of what I'm going through now.

Are we talking a Motorola brand charger or one that fits a Motorola brand? I thought ones that fit Motorola are not micro USB but mini USB. I just bought a TomTom universal USB charger that allows for 2 USB cables to be plugged into it. One is a 1A and the other is a 2.1A. I also bought a Belkin 6ft data/ charging cable the is USB to mini USB to micro USB with included adapter.

AHA!
That's your problem....
My buddy with an ATRIX bought one of those usb to the wall things with 2 plugs on it... it takes 12 hour to charge his phone from dead... and won't charge my boss's phone at all
And... from my job... I know that adapters degrade signal strength...
Your best bet is to get something that doesn't require a second adapter...
ie: wall wart/cig liter gizmo... wire... that's it

Well this all started while I was using a car charger that was included with an HTC Inspire. I figured it would power up the Note. The set up I posted before is the one I bought yesterday to see if the same issue occurs. I spent a lot of time looking for a 2.1A USB power point in hopes it would alleviate my issue.
I am curious though about the pin configuration idea though and fast charging.

I'm using Samsung's official galaxy note car dock. Works fine for me. Doesn't lose charge while using GPS, paying music, etc. It does actually charge it up.
Id buy one of those if t would work with a case on. I wonder if there are ant specs for.that dock online that would elude to the power output. I see the.home charger is only only a 1A.
I wonder if it could be the cable too?

As he said, the stock charger does not seem to effectively charge the phone well - try using a different wall USB charger. I use an old blackberry one and it works great, and my girlfriend uses her iPhone charger with the same results.
I have a similar experience. When I am using the phone and must charge I like my HP Touchpad's wall charger which can charge slightly more than the phone uses. However I bought the Samsung desk charger with the spare battery and when the phone gets to 20-30% I just swap and charge the battery in the dock. FWIW I can get from 8- 35 hours on the batteries depending on use.

Hey I've recently wanted to use the fast charge widget by Chad but I can't seem to find a decent kernel that supports it.
Is there a reason the feature is left out? I figured it would kind of be standard to custom kernels.

What car charger are you using that doesn't pick up as AC already? As long as you aren't using one that advertises iDevice support, it shouldn't need fast charge.

Some off brand charger. Idk. Now that I think about it the charger may be bad. It shows ac charging. It didn't act like it was charging at all the other day. Wouldnt keep up well in an area with no service. But the one in my personal vehicle and my wall charger do well. Lol either way I miss the fast charge.

Ermahgerd Kernel supports fast charge but read the first post instructions very carefully.
There are some ppl who say fast charge isn't all its cracked up to be. It does not make ac charge go any faster. I bought a Rezound compatible usb cord and an official HTC plug separately off amazon for like 30 altogether. Beats having to wait forever using another manufacturers charger.

Make sure your charger exceeds the fast charge rate. A 2 amp charger would certainly be large enough. 1 amp would be too small.

Just buy a real charger which follows the USB charging specs, and be done with it. Problem solved.

Follows the USB charging specs? So you mean 5V 500mA? I prefer a charger with 2amp capabilities, so I know there are no issues when using fastcharge. When the phone detects a car charger or computer USB port, the kernel regulates the current to 500mA or less. Telling the phone to pull more than 500mA from a computer or car charger will probably just damage the charger, depending on the rating.
But a two amp charger with fastcharge should charge at 1.25 amp or so, and it won't damage the charger.

I currently have this car charger:
http://www.amazon.com/PNY-P-P-DC-UF...fkmr2&keywords=usb+2.0+car+charger+pny+2.1amp
When I first got it, I shorted the pins to force it to charge in AC mode. Now that I know it is capable of 2.1amps and our phone can accept similiar amperage, will I need a micro usb 3.0 cable for it to charge at 2.1amps? Or will my old galaxy s3 usb 2.0 cable be able to charge it at 2.1 amps as well?

No, a USB 2.0 cable will charge at the same current as a USB 3.0 cable (1800mA with the screen turned off, 1200mA with it on).

I believe there is also a loss of energy during the transfer of energy. The process is not 100% efficient.

if the battery drain is alright when the phone is not charging, you should maybe first try to use another charging method! I had exactly the same problem even with original samsung usb cable. I changed it to an older samsung charging cable (galaxy ace) and everything worked perfect again.
