I think samsung didn't make this clear at all. And at the moment, I really don't have sure what is the best thing to do. Let this always turned on may let the battery have a decrease of capacity on a period of time?
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA Free mobile app
No. Remember, the battery has a "safe" range of voltage. Of course I am assuming that even within the safe range it won't degrade any faster.
Also remember, you can just replace the battery!

I also think this way. But when we let the phone charging overnight, during our sleep time. The fast charging is not necessary. In this scenario, did you still leave this mode on?
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA Free mobile app
I leave Fast Charging OFF because I only charge my phone while I'm asleep.
I think fast charging is harder on the battery than standard charging but as always, and unlike other phones, we can easily replace the battery in seconds.

Same here, I leave it Off most of the time as I charge while I sleep, and only use it when I need a quick boost if the day is going to be much longer than expected, e.g. if I'm going out after work and not sure if I'll go back to my own place after that.
Fast charge is the only thing stopping me from complaining about the 5hr SOT

Not sure its placebo or not but when i use fast charging i think im getting worse SOT times.

It must be the placebo effect, I am not seeing any diff.
It's a great feature, should just use it and worry about battery life when the time comes. Like others already said, the battery can easily be replaced.
OBVIOUSLY the phone is designed for fast charging at night while we sleep or would you rather believe Qualcomm and Samsung didn't think of that and we now all have a ticking time battery bomb ready to go off at any moment at night....
Oh the horror....
So does this feature make battery life worse?
I dont charge mine over night, but if i did, I would turn off fast charging, or use one of my lower powered chargers. The fast charging is excellent duringbthe day, but using it while you sleep serves no purpose

They take the same time to completely charge your device. Quick charge will charge your phone at full speed for about 15mins and then gradually decrease the charging speed so as to conserve battery life. It should not be a problem to quick charge your phone overnight because of this feature.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
Also it would not be a problem because it doesnt keep feeding into your battery when your battery is full. There ARE safetymeasures, its ultimately irrelevant. I leave it on fastcharging all the time, because theres no reason to turn it off.
Leave it on. It's one of the best feature. Fast charging. Luv it.
Having used multiple batteries, and both fast charging on and off with several different chargers, I can say that it has no effect on SOT. This isn't a thought, I record battery use with and compare the data.

Surely there has to be SOME downside, if they allow you to disable it.
I mean, if there's no downside, why would anyone want their battery to take longer to charge?

Strange Issue!!
when my phone is low on battery and i try to charge it (with the original ac charger or the usb); sometimes (almost half the times) the phone instead of charging .... DISCHARGES!!
i have tried all possible fixes. tried the battery calibration apps also. but it gets ok for a day and then back.
i can only charge my phone while its switched off!
Details:
1. on stock TW4
2. 3 pages on home
3. total widgets= 6 ( advanced task killer; digital clock; 2- circle launcher; quick battery; weather)
4. i kill all tasks always before charging!
WHAT AM I DOING WRONG? BTW I HAVE TRIED TO REMOVE ALL WIDGETS AND CHARGE ALSO! NO LUCK!
HELP!!
It sound like you might have a faulty charger, have you tried charging from your notebook, it`s a bit slower at 400mah compared to 650mah for the mains charger.

Yes, as a matter of fact, right now i am trying to charge through USB with the same drainage.
Switch the phone off for a while!... let the sucker charge.
And the problem is not always!
this is normal, already been posted. the charger is limited to 650 mA on wall power, and 450 mA on USB power. so it is easily possible to pull more power than is going into the device, say if you are gaming or pushing the device hard with navigation or similar.
next time this happens, turn off the screen for 10 minutes as a test, then come back, and see if the charge increased at all. it likely will increase.

My problem is when I'm not using the phone at all and the screen is off. Tried charging through both wall and usb charger.
The only way right now I can charge my phone is while switched off.
I always kill all apps before charging also... Still!
And if its charging while on, screen off, it gets hot also.

I once had this problem..after charging for 6 hours battery was only at 60% and phone was hot..found out that although the screen was off..the phone was wide awake all the time. For me the issue was the wifi manager was somehow awake and consuming power..hence phone was hot and battery drain while charging. Check your battery usage graph and see if your phone is awake when it should not be..and pin down the rouge app or process..
Hope this helps..

That's right,but if the charger was 1000mA like HTC's it would continue to draw those 700mA it needs even while in use.You wouldn't notice any difference at all with it charging while not being used,but when screen is on there is a difference.
They limited charge current to 650 mA in the driver code, so that's why they use a 0.7 A charger. Using a higher output won't help unless someone compiles a new kernel.
I charge the phone until 100%. When unplug, it immediately drops to 85%-90%. On one occassions, it dropped to 40%! What's wrong with it?

I suggest you do a simple trouble shooting...charge your phone to 100% while it is off.
Than unplug, switch on your phone and just leave it for half hour or an hour without doing anything.
Than swith your display on...and go to settings
Select about phone..
Go to battery use and tap on the graph.
It will show you a few horizontal lines.
Make sure your screen on and awake time bars coincide nicely.
While your screen is off your awake bar should be very very minumum... most of the high battery drain casses will have a very short screen on bar but a solid long line of awake time.
This is normally due to some rougue app or process...and you have to narrow it down.
If your graph looks normal..than you could be having a defective battery or in worst case a defective hardware.

The note is a disaster for me when it comes to charging.
If your battery is low and you start charging it but using it at the same time, it doesn't get worse, but it doesn't get better either i.e. actually charge the thing, it just holds its own.
I have got to say I am not impressed with this!
I am not facing such problems. Charging takes pretty long yes but not as bad as you said. A larger battery will of course need a longer time to charge. But I wonder sometimes too if it's the battery problem or the charger output problem and if there's a way to speed up the process.

I think it is more to do with the actual charger, seems like a trickle charge or something.
Yes if charging and using at the same time you would not expect it to charge as quick, but mine doesnt really charge at all, just stays the same.
My acer iconia will charge like lightning even when i am using it, smaller battery or not it still charges!
This was one of the things i was looking forward to with the note, but this slow charge seems to make it more or less the same as what I am used to.
I have the usb plug which comes with the kindle, might it do a better job?
If anyone manages to find a proprietary charger which can produce better charging I will like to know too
That is common the charging is very slow and if you are playing HD games then the charging is almost in negative. May be its because of the voltage of the charger inputs and it is to low. Samsung must have done it for a reason may be its because of the proprietry port or the battery itself we do not know but we need to live it
Agreed, charging this thing takes a long time. Keep in mind that the battery is 7000 mAh and the charger is most likely a 2 amp charger, pegging the charge time at around 4 hours with no other losses. So if you're using it, it should take even longer.

No such issue here. I charge to full capacity while using all the time.
I get what he's saying. Because it draws so much power when you're using it; having it charging at the same time doesn't move the needle much. For example, if you're watching a movie while it's charging you'll probably be at the same point battery wise when the movies over. People complain about this all the time when their using their devices as a GPS. In some cases not only doesn't it charge but it actually continues to drain so you're worse off from where you started. We're using 21st century toys powered by 20th century battery technology.

This is a better way of saying what I mean, thank you.
I also have to say one thing I do not like doing is turning the screen brightness down. After all we all get these things as they look so good, so I am not going to make it look worse when I am using it, what would be the point in that? Its a bit like saying yeah my battery life is 14 days but actually it is on standby for that time lol...
Anyway, I still believe it should be better and the primary cause is the weak charger for what ever reason sammy decided to make it that way, but its not a good thing.
It seems like I remember someone recommending a charger that was more powerful so the note would charge faster. Can anyone confirm this?
What a fail thread. If you know ANYTHING about charging, you would know why this happens and why this is NORMAL.
But why even search or educate oneself, let's post a thread on XDA and whine a bit.
It could be worse. It takes six hours to charge a N10.
I dont face this problem i charge mine when surfing the wep
On a slightly related side note, doesn't it suck that the brightness just turns down completely when the battery is low?
The zslower charge rate protects the batteries life ,reduces the possibilty of heat and battery damage trickling insures a full charge
if you don't want your screen to dim don't use the power saving setting.

Wow! many friends?
Anyway moving on.. so i just got my note 10.1 about a week ago, loving it but saw that while plugged in it was not charging at all while i was using the tablet and never quite getting to 100% overnight. By not charging while using, i mean to say that it was actually discharging. Yes of course i am using the stock charger and cable.. and even stock note.
so just tried something silly. Unplugged and plugged the usb from the block repeatedly about 5 times. Now its not only recognizing and charging, but charging relatively quickly even while using. To test, i unplugged for about 20 min and plugged back in. Same great results.
Just thought i would share instead of hoarding my new found knowledge like others..
Quick update: it charged about 10% in 20 min.. Nice
I don't charge mine - I paid cash for it
Hiya guys. Long time lurker but gonna pop that cherry today.
Was curious as to how many of you leave this phone fast charging overnight? I know its a smart charger and all that good stuff.
For an hour of charge i dont mind staying up for it since it prevents any damage that may happen. But i mainly do it to baby the battery.
i used the wireless one so it trickle charges and keeps battery in good condition. Fast charging will degrade it faster,

Do you have any proof to back this up?
I've had the Note 4 since January and have been fast charging it over night every day since then and I haven't had any issues whatsoever still running with excellent battery life. I'm now using the S6 Edge+ and wouldn't think it would be a problem. The power cuts out once the battery reaches max so it shouldn't try and fast charge a full battery.

It's a well known fact that fast charging is bad for battery condition. The electrodes degrade and corrode and the higher amps required for fast charging will contribute to the issue. I fast charge my note 3 and I'm on my 3rd battery now and this is starting to show decreased life.

Me too. My Note 4 was always on the fast charger and no obvious signs of deterioration. I am pretty sure Samsung has considered any issues, especially in a phone with a fixed battery, as they put Fast Charging very high on their list of selling point features.

I use my fast charger over night and have noticed when it reaches 100% the lightening icon that shows on the battery icon when charging goes away. So there must be some sort of electronic protection built into the phone

Even more that it pumps more voltage like a monster then any other wall charger i have.

While you can't overcharge the battery, leaving it connected like that will degrade the long term life of the battery. A lithium battery shouldn't sit at peak voltage (100%) for extended periods of time. Here are a couple of really good articles:

This is correct in my experience, and is one of the reasons why the battery life on laptops tends to go right to crap . . . because people just let them sit on the charger constantly. IIRC, ideally you want to let it drain to around 20%, charge to full, let it drain, etc. Never let it completely die, and long-term storage should be at around 40% charge. No one does this perfectly because it would be such a hassle but in general this is what keeps lithium-ion batteries happy.

You're pretty much right on the money there. I think three ideal range is between 40%-80% though. Small top up changes are the best way to charge lithium batteries.
20% is too low. Charge cycles slowly degrade the battery. 80% is a good number, but failing that 100% is a better option than continually cycling it. But this is a phone we're talking about not a laptop. I would imagine cycling is what's going to happen to it in most normal usage scenarios.

So excited about getting my new phone today but have a question prior to opening just to be prepared. What is the best process to ensure the battery health when first opening device? Do I charge the device fully prior to turning it on for the first time or do I let the battery drain fully before I put it on the charger? I know this is an age old discussion but not sure with these new phones how to best handle it.
Thanks in advance.
I honestly used it took it died, then I charged it all the way to 100 (never leave overnight) then I let it die all the way, then charge again.. So far good battery life

That is the worst thing you can do. These aren't NiCads. LiIon batteries do not like to be fully discharged.
You'll likely find that the battery will be charged to roughly 40%. This is considered the ideal amount of charge for long-term storage. People often still worry about memory effects of batteries, harping back to the days of older battery types such as Ni-Cad and some Ni-Mh batteries but the same isn't true for Li-ion or Li-Pol batteries.
The one thing to absolutely try to avoid is letting the battery run down to flat. Li-ion batteries will degrade quicker over time if discharged fully, which is also why devices have a built-in "buffer" amount when you run the battery down to avoid damaging them.
Honestly, the main issue for your battery is heat, and large drops or knocks. Try and keep it cool and never let it die on you!
You don't need to do anything special, just use it. One thing you should definitely not do is completely discharge the battery though. You should also refrain from keeping the device connected to a charger once it's reached full charge, keeping the battery at peak voltage decreases the long-term battery life. Here's a couple of really helpful articles:
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

Just a point of info: Phone batteries don't LET you completely discharge. Once your phone shuts down (afer running "out" of battery, the battery still has some level of charge left.

That is right, but if you continue to power the device on in order to drain it more you'll cause problems. It's virtually impossible to completely drain one of these batteries, it actually powers down at something like 50% of its true capacity, because if it gets much lower than this it can cause irreparable damage. If you do somehow manage to drain one of these batteries past that magical point (by the methods I described above), it will simply not power on again because there's a minimum amount of voltage required.
Interesting. I normally charge my devices while I sleep so when I wake up they are fully charged. Once I'm up I'm ready to go and have a full charge not wake up to charge the device and wait for it to reach capacity idk. I haven't had any issues in any phone I've had while charging it while I sleep at night

It just basically reduces the capacity of the battery over time. I charge in the evening before bed, it only drops a couple of percent overnight thanks to doze.

With my Nexus like now I'm in bed with 77% battery, I'm usually on my device until I fall asleep, my BlackBerry has great standby time. With doze, I don't lose much battery if any and since the phone recharges so fast. I'm rarely "dead" enough to warrant me charging it while I sleep like say my note four etc. But this is food for thought in regards to charging
