Can someone tell me what the original adaptive fast charger specs are(I don't have mine w/ me and won't for a while)? I'm looking for another wall charger but don't want to spend the $35 for the OEM one. I do, however, want to make sure if I get a knock off it has the same specs. Is it 5V 2.1amps?
I'm also looking at these quick charge power bricks on Amazon and again, want to make sure it provides the same specs as the original charger. I'm trying not to wear out this battery w/ all different voltages going to it when I charge w/ different chargers.
I don't know if you will be able to see.. but download the pic and zoom..
Perfect thank you!!

If I were to use a external battery to charge my gs6e, would that wear out my gs6e battery quicker or damage it? Mines outputs at 5v 1A

Hi guys i used to have galaxy s2 before i bought the galaxy note.my s2 used to charge in the background even though am using it.but i found note dont charge the battery when am using it.i dont think this is a special feature samsung gave it to customers i never saw a device having this type of issue. Is anyone having same problem. Is there any solution for this. Thanq guys
That's because the phone uses more power than the stock charger provides.
This is normal, but you may have better luck using a different charger.
How long have you had the phone? And are you using the stock wall charger?

Are you using an overclocked kernel? If so, that along with high brightness setting and using the stock charger could cause that to happen. plus it takes a few days of full charging amd discharge before the battery is calibrated.
Am using it from 2 months.am using original charger.

I had the same problem. If you get the wire at the AT&T store that is a charging only wire it seems to provide the phone with 1 amp of power from the original charging block. Or you can buy a wire off eBay like I did and it does the job.

Which ebay seller? Many sell bogus charge only cable...
Download current widget https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.manor.currentwidget&hl=en
Use a 10 divider and if the widget shows 990-1000ma then you're good as far as the charger.
Now even with 1000ma chargin, if the screen is on, playing music, and navigation. It will either stay the same charge or charge very very slow. (very)
CobraCables... I purchased 3 six foot charging cables. One was broken and the seller asked no questions and sent me a new one. All cables come with a 2 year warranty and are high quality.

I recommend a 2A charger like the HP Touch pad unit. The phone only draws as much as is needed. It also come with a good quality and thick cable.

Hello,
I just installed ReVolt and the charge rate is just ridiculous. I can manually change the charge rate but before I do I need too know a few things. The first thing is on stock charger what is the Input Current? The second thing is what is the charging current, (the current going from the phone to the battery).
I know the risks and I'm not stupid I just need to know so I will not damage my charger and battery.
Have a read on the charger itself. It should say how many amps or A it charges at.

I dont know input but at output is 1A at 5V
Since u mentioned u know the risks, can u please give me a brief on em?
Whars the max that can happen?
And is the super fast charge worth it?

On my previous phone I blew the battery from pushing too much current into it after I changed the charging current. I put 800 and my battery could only handle 650. On my previous phone the charger melted and almost caused a fire because I changed the input current to a higher number instead of using the right one.
I just want to make sure the same thing doesn't happen again. So for those who mock or who are rude just stop. Not everyone is a pro. Does anyone know the input current of the stock battery for the Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 while charging? What is a safe number. I'm using an app which doesn't show the right values.

I found the charger rate but I want too know the charge rate of the battery. How much current can the stock battery accept?

1000 mah normal charging and 475 mah with usb

I might as well enjoy long charges if no one knows the battery rate. I know the charger rate.

I use mine on default rate for mains and 900ma thru USB and it charges just fine and safely.
So long as the USB is capable of supplying 900ma (most modern PCs can) then there shouldn't be a problem.
I've heard of people using higher rates (mains is 1A, USB 500ma by default) than above but this can be dangerous, for both you and your phone.

I was wondering if there is an app/option that can tell you how fast the phone is charging, the amperage if the charge and/or the rate
I have a feeling one of my galaxy s1 wall bricks ifs dying but I can't tell for sure and the damn connections on the charging cables are too small for me to use a multimeter

galaxy charging current does.
you can also go to /sys/class/power_supply/battery/current_now you can get the same results. oddly, both show 460 when not charging.
Dashclock has a battery extension which shows battery and charging info.... See if that helps

Noticed my oem charger & cord now only charge my phone at 450mA which is nowhere near the 850mA my old photon q charger puts out. Has anyone else experienced this? Already tried switching sockets

Nvm. Called Samsung tech support and they say it a "known" issue so they will replace the charger, usb cord, & battery for free w 2 day shipping

How can i see what rate my phone is being charged? I am stock and not rooted. I want to compare different chargers and see what rate they are charging my phone at. Thank you for reading and helping.

Battery Widget Reborn will do this.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.hubalek.android.reborn.beta
There is also a non beta version and a pro version.
There is a thread about it here on xda as well.
Let us know the results!

After downloading the app that freddyfredfred has offered you might go to Galaxy note 3 accessories. There are threads on charging, from what I have read and experienced the stock charger works the best. But the trick is a heavy cable, I picked up a 3.0 USB cable for a external hard drive at a radio shack. The cable is twice as thick as the stock cable and knocked about 15 min off a charge cycle from 20% . Hope this helps !
jimzweb1 is right, i am using pantech burst cable with the charger and it works absolutely fine
you can use 'galaxy charging current lite' to check charging current to the mobile.
I downloaded Galaxy charging current lite and it says 1200. Is that a good rate?

Sorry for late reply mate
Value depends on ur charger output.. See what's the output current on ur charger... If it's 1.2A then your value is perfect
Btw you are supposed to consider maximum value not reference one
