Figured I'd ask to see if that'd be OK before I did some damage.
Also could I do the reverse, charge my S3 with the n10 charger??
Thanks!!

Yes you can. They both use a standard Micro USB charger. Any other previous blackberry or android phone you may have lying round will also work
Sure you can.. But it might charge slowly if the power adapter isn't able to output 2A @ 5v

I'm using my S3 charger now on my N10. Charge time is the same.

So the wall sends out 1000 ma and USB sends 500 ma.

Now that would be interesting. 500,000 volts from a USB. Needs a flux capacitor.

Hey thanks! I already have a dock though.
In my post I asked what the charging output was for the HD dock.
Sent from my Atrix using XDA App
USB 2 is 500ma, USB 3 is 900ma, Moto charger has 850ma rating on it. If you have a USB 3.0 port you can use you'll get enough power from that. I use the 3.0 on my laptop at work, and it charges fine.
How can we find out the charging output of the multimedia dock?
Sent from my Atrix using XDA App
Do the differences matter much? Just one takes longer to charge then the other?

Yes one charges faster that's it. For heavy users like myself, getting the most juice as conveniently as possible is a plus.
I also like to charge my phone on the dock and keep my usb cable in the truck for playing music. I only want to do so if I can find out what the dock is putting out. When I need juice I need it as quickly as possible.

If your only getting 500mA your phone will take hours to charge and then only if your not running wifi, Bluetooth or gps. Use any of those and plugging it in will just prolong discharge but not actually charge it. With just GPS running I pull over 700mA. I'm really tempted to put a female end with resistors (to fool the phone into thinking it’s on AC power or it'll never pull more than 500mA) on a split wire usb mini cable for charging at work.
I finally used my brain and checked my chargers. Here's the specs
Standard charger: 850mA
HD multimedia dock: 1.2A

I think the dock is rated higher to power the usb ports. I bet it still only feeds 500 to the phone for charging. Looks like its back to the cable for charging!

Just an update. I think the dock charges as fast as the wall power adapter. Almost certain.

This is interesting as I have issues getting my Atrix to charge in the car dock. I have the ATT boxed car dock with ecomoto dual USB. It simply will not charge in the dock. Connected direct to the car charger and it's super fast to charge. Maybe the ecomoto isn't capable of charging the phone in the car dock.

Is using a different wall charger harmful? I was using my old palm pre wall charger for the first few days and it is rated at 1000mA.

I use a universal 5V/1A usb charger. No problem.
I think shouldn't be an issue. The original charger was rated 1.2a. I managed to find my old n97 charger with the same rating. Make sure the output voltage is the same (5v)and you should be fine.

Thanks for the info bro !
i ask because the Galaxy Note II charges really fast with the included 2 Amp charger despite the huge battery. so does it?
It will support 2 amp charger but it will not come with a 2 amp wall charger.
I had read it does come with the so called rapid charge charger, where did you read that it would not?
Anandtech said it came with the same wall charger as the Note 2,which is 2 amp.
"This signaling is essentially Samsung's proprietary tablet charging signaling which they've employed on the Galaxy Note 2 and now SGS4, in fact the two use the same exact charger, so it's worth tossing out your old ones and getting the appropriate one to take advantage of the faster charging."

so even tho it has quick charge, its still slower than the s3? oo wut? it should charge twice as fast with a 2A charger vs 1A. i know the battery is a bit bigger, but it should still be significantly faster than the S3
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Quick charge to my knowledge is strictly for usb charging. Wall charging is unaffected by this tech. 2 amp charger for a phone is damn fast, trust me.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda app-developers app
The included 2 amp charger seems pretty quick to me. I never owned an S3, so I can't compare to that.

I'd be interested in seeing if the phone actually draws 2 amps while charging or if it limits itself to a 1 amp rate of charge.

got the i9505 today, it comes with a 2A charger and it definitely charges up rapidly. I used the galaxy app from this forum to check charge current and it is flagged as 1900 mA.
For me it is not charging trough the PC's USB:crying:

If the phone's normal current draw is 1900mA, I wouldn't expect much of anything when plugged into a 500mA USB port

Can confirm it comes with 2amp charger and charges fast (Can only compare it to my S2 but I would say its charges quicker than that). Phone does charge via USB but very slow.
It is realy weird, that it is no possible charging from pc!
SOLVED: It was blocked by Battery Monitor Widget
So does or it doesn't support quick charger the samsung galaxy s4 i9505 android 5.0.1?
Is anyone else having problems charging their S4? I was using a 5V/1A car charger while on a trip and the phone was actually losing power faster than it was charging. I did have Waze open and was playing music using local files with Google Play, but my S3 was able to handle that fine and still charge in the car.
Additionally, I left it plugged in overnight for 6+ hours using the AC plug that came with the phone and it didn't charge up all the way.
Is there something wrong with my phone?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
I had the same problem in my car. I had a cheap car charger that was lower amperage than the standard wall charger. This phone is designed to charge with a 5V 2Amp charger. Your screen draws more power than your s3 so 1amp might be it's burn rate with screen on, GPS, music, etc.
I got a 2amp car charger from thinkgeek that works brilliantly. It was a little pricey. Amazon has one for 6 bucks. I highly recommend buying a coiled micro USB cable so it is more manageable.

Should be as safe as using the stock charger. Even if it was a lot more powerful than the stock charger it would still be fine because the phone itself is what regulates how much power to send the battery.
Recently my wife broke her USB port on her n7, so I decided to just attach some wire to the pogo pins as I know there was a ground and a 5v line. After I installed battery monitor, hers was charging at 1000 to 1300ma. Mine charges at 500-600ma.
Maybe my port is broken too I'm not sure. Can anyone confirm this?

I also charge my nexus from a homemade dock at the 1000-1300 mark compared with my usb port. The usb port is so bad that most of the time I see it discharging while in use!!!
I believe this is a hardware fault as mine used to charge great through usb. at one point my usb socket stopped working altogether, I ran a soldering iron over it and it is at least working again, still slow to charge.
I have also been following a thread about this in the google user forums. One person stated that when they changed the usb board charging rates resumed to normal standards. There is a lot of people in that thread suffering from this. Bad show google.
Have you guys confirmed that the n7 charges faster off the pogo pins?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N900A using xda app-developers app
It can charge just as fast off USB I know mine does I think the problem seems to be that the ports are easily damaged and it slows the charge rate

I have been following a thread on google forums about people suffering from poor charging rates. I can confirm that many users in that thread, myself included, have found that charging through pogo pins charges normally, whilst the usb charging takes forever and even discharges with screen on!!

It is with a third party charger as my charger broke, but it was the same with the original.

The 5V oem charger output 2000mA. Any charger 2A should fast charge.
Also the pogo pin can charge on 12V 500ma (which is automobile acc. standart)
See more info on Qualcomm FastCharge Standart
There's a chip that identify the power output available. So a charger 1A charger will be identify by the device, therefore it won't fastcharge.
