I have a couple 2 amp built-in wall receptacle 5V usb chargers in my house. They have charged everything I have ever owned just fine including my S4 that I just upgraded to an S5. For some reason, these chargers will not charge the S5. My car chargers and every other charger I own, some of which are not Samsung, still charge the S5. Does anyone know why the 5V wall chargers will not work? I have tried different cables too. Everything works fine except these wall chargers. Why would the S5 refuse to charge from them?

So does mine. Like I said above, only the built-in wall USB recptacles do not work and I can't figure out why. They are good 2 amp models that charge anything else that I can throw at them.

Hi,
I am purchased a T-Mobile Galaxy S5 yesterday. The supplied charger works fine. But, I have 6-8 aftermarket micro USB chargers that I purchased from Best Buy (Rocketfish) that do not work. The transformers on those are 2.4 Amp. The transformers on the supplied Samsung chargers are 2.0 Amp. Could this be the issue? Is there any hack to make my aftermarket chargers work?
Did you ever resolve your issue?
my capdase dual charger is not working with galaxy s5
I've had a GS3, a GS4, and now a GS5. The 3 and 4 would charge with any USB charger. Only the charging rate would change. I did some experiments with an old cable and found that the thin wiring in the cable was the culprit of the slow charging. When you get a phone (or tablet) with a 2 amp capable charger, it will be supplied with a cable capable of carrying that much power without a large voltage drop. If you have a lightweight USB cable, the voltage drop in the cable itself will drop below the 4 volts needed at the phone for proper charging.
I have a couple of built-in wall outlet 2 amp capable USB chargers. They charged the S3, S4 and older tablets just fine. Now I have an S5 and just got a Samsung 10.1 pro tablet. Both refuse to charge from the universal 3 amp chargers. They will charge from only the original Samsung chargers or from my laptop. Samsung has changed something in their charging circuits recently. I think if they detect a non-samsung charger they just refuse to charge completely instead of just defaulting to a slower rate. Does anyone know if this is fact or a way I can mod my wall charger to work on the new Sammy devices? I don't mind slow charging.
A couple of my non-samsung chargers not only don't charge but actually drain the battery.
If it is a change then it's not recent. I charge mine from my 3-year-old S2's charger just fine.

Hello to everyone!
I have one simple question: do I risk something if I charge the Note with another charger than the original one?
I don-t know, but I think no.
I charged many time my note with htc charger and gs2 charger.

It doesn't matter what kind of charger you have. The only thing you must look at is the voltage of the source (5V DC) and it must be a micro usb plug

im using my old htc hd2 charger as the samsung one seems to have packed up and isnt charging properly
The easiest way to charge your Note is of course via a USB>Micro USB cord plugged into a laptop or PC (where you are guaranteed the voltage is correct), however if you are using a generic or knock off wall wart charger than provides a micro USB connector there is some small chance that it will not charge your Note.. look for the charging icon and if its not charging, toss the charger and get another.
There is no specific risk to the device, provided that it (the charger) has a micro-usb intended for charging generic devices..its just that some modern portable devices have a stricter requirement (tighter tolerance) for charging voltage and simply will not charge outside that voltage range.. my BB9930 does exactly this..

Since all micro/mini usb chargers have the same voltage, and vary only in the power output - the only problem you could face is slow charging, or no charging at all if the charger doesn't have enough juice. But it certainly won't harm the phone.

I'm using an old HTC mains-to-USB and a Nokia microUSB cable...
My stock charger has a slight squeal, so I usually use the charger for my BB Curve 9300. Does totally fine.
My Note was purchased from expansys UK but shipped in from mainland Europe. As it was to be sold in the UK, expansys had to supply a UK adapter rather than an EU one ...I received an HTC adapter with my phone. At first, I was worried, but discovered that it works beautifully with my Note. Charges faster than generic Samsung chargers too! You should be fine using another standard charger

For the first 3 weeks I was using a blackberry (original) Bold II charger.
I noticed charge time was too long. And maybe even battery life was shorter.
Im not 100% sure about the second statement but the first is confirmed.
When I started using the Note charger it was faster. Not super fast compared to iPhone or iPad but faster than using the Bold charger.

Most modern USB chargers should be fine (I use my old iPhone charger for the Note, for example.) Watch the power output though - some tablet chargers are rated at 2A+ and that could overdrive your charging circuit and cause damage. If you make sure your charger is about 1A (and 5V, obviously) then you should be fine.

Well emuX said it all!
1A of output and 5V and you are fine!
Actually the charging current is limited by internal resistance of the battery, so the battery effectively "accepts" charge. Charging current is not "pushed" in by the charger...
obviously a charger from say a BB is likely to be current limited and so longer charging times would be expected, but an iPad charger will work fine.

I wouldnt worry too much, I charge my note with my iPhone charger purely because the USB port faces a different way so I can actually fit it on my plug extensions without loseing 2 sockets.
Pretty much anything with an output of 5Vdc and a minimum of 1A will do just fine.
Ive noticed the stock wall charger delivered with the Nexus 4 is rated at 1.2A, 5.0V. My old phone had a micro usb charger at 0.8A, 5.0V. I imagine the N4 will charge on the lower rated charger, but would take longer. Isnt the standard usb rated at 0.5A? My desktop PC has a new Asus board that has the Charge+ 3X Faster Charging, which I would guess means the usb can pump out power at 1.5A. Looking around for a car charger and additional wall charger, I imagine the N4 would be fine with a higher and lower rated charger? Or should I stick with 1.2A or less? Ive seen car chargers at 1.0A, 2.1A, and 3.0A.
the n4 will only take the current that it needs. a higher Amps- rated charger won't hurt it.
i use a 2.5A portapow quad output charger, the extra power of which enables the charging of multiple devices simultaneously.
I bought this charger for s2 when I had it.. and sold the phone immediately. However I still have this charger. Now what I want to do is, keep one charger (stock) at home and the other (Nokia one...which is also Original) at my workplace. I want to know, is it compatible? As the manual say, u shouldn't use 3rd party chargers. So I want to know your expert opinions "before" start using it on N4.
Thank you
I use my old blackberry + LG car charger
^ You think this would go fine with my N4?
The Output/Input is all same.. only 160 mA is diffrent from the Stock charger. So I don't really know.

It will be fine, I charge all my devices from my ipad 3 10W/2A @5V wall charger. Bringing one charger while travelling reduces the clutter I have to pack.
Basically if your devices are working properly, they will only pull the power they need to charge. The S4's 2A charger is capable of supplying up to 2A's but is fine supplying less if the device your charging uses less.
The actuall charging circuitry that controls the battery charging is in the phone or device, not the wall unit. The wall unit is simply the power supply.
As acruxksa mentioned, you'll be fine since the device is in control of how much power it pulls from the charger (as long as it is working properly, that is). The only thing that you may notice is when you are charging the Galaxy S4 with the older 1.0A charger it may charge slower.
Have a great day.

And if in doubt, look at it this way; the phones will charge off a USB port on a computer - this is 500ma (0.5A) - so as long as your device will charge off a usb port, it will charge off a wall charger that supplies at least that much amperage. New iPads will not charge off USB ports, but it doesn't hurt them to plug them in.

Yes it does but as the previous reply said it takes longer.
I used the old s3 cable at the office charging s4 but it takes long time to get the battery % up. It usually takes my s4 from 1% to 100% within an hour and half time but with the s3 cable it takes good 3 -4 hour or so.
I wouldn't take the s3 cable for travelling though. it will take too long for me to charge in coffee shops and what not when I am moving around the destinations.
So far, I am very impressed with the charging time of S4.. Love the device.

Good question. Maybe because the higher amp batteries have not been out that long compared to all the years smartphones have been sold. They may start making 3A only. Also, companies may sell less chargers if one size fits all. No need to buy a new one when you change phones.
I do know when I charge the S4 with my One S charger it does take longer, as mentioned, and very slow off USB. The One S charger end also gets somewhat warm charging the S4. The S4 charger does not. That would lead me to believe it is pulling a little more current than charger was designed for. But, probably not an issue. USB does not get warm. But, is a good quality one and heavily shielded.

In case someone buys a 10amp cheap charger and ends up frying the phone. Thus Samsung protects it self from dummy users and from million dead phones warranty swaps.
I'm using a USB car charger that puts out 2.1amps and its super fast. USB 2.0 on my laptop takes a while to charge it. Some times I use iPhone charger with Nokia cable or with WD hard drive USB wire. They all work just fine but charge at different rate.

so if i will charge my S3 with a 2A charger i wont see any major change from the 1A, correct? I have the Boeffala kernel and at the AC charge is set to 1,1A so if i have a 2A charger i guess it should charge faster.
The phone will only draw the maximum it can. The 2A charger will charge it at the same speed as the 1A charger.

Maybe it is a placebo effect, but when I charge my S3 with my S4's charger it does seem faster. Quite a few of my coworkers that have used my S4 charger at work also thought it charged faster.

Well apparently none of those cables are compatible with the G2 and when using the USB cable that came with the G2 with the car chargers I have(the $5 ones from Frys) it only "slow charges".
If I get some cheap cables/chargers from Frys or Amazon, how can I know in advance if it is compatible to allow the standard charging capabilities of the G2?
Thanks,

I'm getting the G2 in a couple of weeks and I have the generic T-Mobile car charger. I can only hope it works because it's the only one they sell.

How much Current does your car carger supply? Most car chargers are around 0.5A. I think the G2 needs something like 2A in order not not "Slow Charge". The G2 has a fast charging rate.

It should be 5 volts, 2 amps.
From the AnandTech review:
The G2 can negotiate a 2A charge rate on my downstream charge port controller and charges very fast in that mode. Of course the PM8941 PMIC also includes some new features that Qualcomm has given QuickCharge 2.0 branding.

You should also be safe with chargers rated above 2A, as long as they are 5V. The device will only pull as many amps as it needs.

I think that only applies to Verizon phones. I think they do something to make other chargers not compatible. I have had that issue with different phones throughout time and everytime it was always a Verizon phone. Never have I had that problem with any other carriers phones. I could be wrong but Verizon always does extra things to their phones to be a pain in the ass so its not impossible.

Actually, I have the Verizon G2 and can attest that NONE of the gazillion USB cables I've had for various purposes over the years (including my Galaxy S3 and S4) will allow for the Fast Charge feature to work with this phone. They only support the slow charge, which pulls only about .5A of current, even if using a 2A charger... Further, I have several cables that dont allow ANY charge whatsoever. They charge my S3 fine (also Verizon), but when looking at battery monitoring apps, they only show as USB connected, but still are discharging..
I'm actually trying to find where I can buy a USB cable that will support Fast charge as I lost my original one... Any one know?

Who is your carrier?
The Verizon model detects anything other then a USB 3.0 charger and forces a slow charge (500mah).
Only the Verizon does this. Only the included cable works. Its not the bricks but the CABLE. We are discussing this in detail in another thread.

Have Fast Charge Working
I have the Verizon version of the LG G2. I have found a couple of ways that it will fast charge. I have been able to use a Nexus 7 charger and USB cable. Also found a car charger that will fast charge: GT Max USB car charger that has both a 2A and 1A USB ports. But it will only fast charge with the heavier USB cables. With the lighter cables (USB sync cables) it will slow charge.
Also found an app called CurrentWidget that will show the battery charge rate. This has been very helpful in determining the right combination.
My N7 charger works but only when using the stock cable. In fact, fast charge (ie normal charge) only works with the stock cable. I have not found another cable that fast charges.
My car has the data pins shorted and will fast charge, but actually doesn't charge at all. A 2 hour drive and my battery was actually lower while on the charger. Goofy.

stock charger stopped working and phone no longer turbo charge.. tried a replacement that worked for 2 months and stopped as well.. phone only chargers with regular usb/chargers.. I'm guessing it's a software problem or could be hardware as well but I'm not the only one with this problem I'm sure.. Anyone have a fix?
Highly unlikely it is a software issue... The Moto X is very finicky about Turbo Chargers and the cable, always use a high quality cable and power supply, I recommend Eversame microUSB cables and Aukey QC 2.0 chargers (car or A/C), I have used them for a long time with no issues at all. Come to think of it, my original charger is probably still in the box, don't think I have ever used it. lol

Yes, because that charger is QC2.0 compliant, I have used on of my son's S7 Edge chargers on more than occasion with no problems and it gets "Turbo charge" just fine... So will most other OEM chargers that are Quick Charge 2.0 compliant.
