Hi Guys
More and more recent im now struggling to get fast charge to kick in.
I charge mostly over night , but sometimes need this fast charge if im in a hurry during the day.
It used to work fine !
Charger looks ok , using everything /cable that it came with. Does not matter what percent my phone is at , even below 10% Makes no difference.
Swapped out to different wall outlets, again makes no difference.
Sometimes to get it to kick in i have to reboot the device.
Anyone else getting this.
cheers

It`s because the original charger cable from samsung. Buy a different cable from amazon or like that. That helps you out
Original cable was not good. Use a short and thick 3rd party cable. Works like a charm
Ditto what everyone else has said. I only have problems with the Sammy charger. I have an anker QC2.0 for the house and an aukey QC2.0 for the car. Always goes into fast charging mode with those.

Thanks guys , works like a charm coming away from the original cable..
straight in to fast charge.
Pretty damn poor that this got out of Quality control , beings though it was a big thing... for this device.
Oh God bless you guys you were so damn right. And I thought it was a software bug or something. 10 out of 10 plug in with my older LG cable triggers fast Charging while with the stock Samsung cable still missing it randomly.

I've had this problems about a week after I got my N7.
The Micro USB cable that came shipped with my tablet charged it while I was using it for about a week.
After that week, the battery would just plateau around whatever percentage I had before charging.
A few days later, it wouldn't charge fast enough and the battery percentage just dropped.
I switched to a First Gen Nook Micro USB cable, which worked like a charm.
Up until now...
The charge seems to be close to plateauing again, because it charged a good 3% every 10 minutes, now I barely get 10% every hour.
What the hell is going on?
I spend $250 on something I expect to at least run on AC without any problems.
Sorry the post is long, and thank you all tremendously for your help.

a few people have had this prob , i think i sometimes have it, as if i use a certain usb charger it charges to 100% in about 2.5 hours, with the other one it'll take 3-4 hours to reach 100%.
im not sure but i think there is a app on market to show what recharge voltage your getting while plugged in, i cant remember the name thou srry:crying:
Why do you think the Nook wire stopped working though?
It just seems odd that both wires worked at one point, but slowly stopped working...
Then logic would tell me that it's not in fact related to what cable you are using, but a problem with either the battery itself or the main board. First thing I would do is let the battery die, pop the back cover off, unplug the battery, let it sit for a while, then charge it back up. That may or may not solve the problem, but it's worth trying.

just realized lol
my sgs3 charges better from asus usb charger
and my nexus 7 asus charges better from the samsung charger lmao
soo my issue is the fast charging.
first few days it was fast charging everything worked fine after that it stoped fast charging. when i plug it in it dosent show "fast charge connected" insted it shows " usb ".... so i thought something wrong with the cable so i changed it.... so i changed just the cable not the plug works fine. my first thought is that the cable is broken or something,
1. can that be true that the cable is not proper build?
2. does it affect anything that i charge my phone with an older cable?
Just double check under settings, power settings, fast charging is still checked. Once I accidently uncheked it.

no no the fast charging is checked.... like i said with the cable that came with the phone fast charging is not working...... other cables yes everythings normal
That's odd because the cable has nothing to do with it. Maybe your stock cable has been damaged.
I don't know it's confusing to me too. because the first two days it was working great after that It's not fast charging . maybe my cable was bad made!! but fast charging is working with another cable l have from my old s3 !

Also does it affect something on my battery that im using an old cable for fast charging???

How do you know of fast charging is working? Thought the screen had to be off?
Yes the cable will affect fast charging. Fast charging only works with cables of certain gauge (thickness). You must have damaged your cable, or it was already damaged before you got it. Don't worry this has no effect on the battery, no degradation.

ok so the cable could have been already damaged...... the thing is when i fast charge it with the other cable it charges the same time as the cable that came with the phone.... i also noticed that i get the same battery life also...... sooooo i there must be no harm at all right????
rapid charging multiple issues
My Note 4 did the same thing: 1st charge worked great, then it started showing connected to the RC, but unable to charge and flashing LED. Sometimes it still charges okay (not rapid) and sometimes really crawls. The "not able to charge" plops up every few minutes. Word was that there was a chord issue with the OEM and that they were fixed, but replacing the ones that were shipped already with a problem. That didn't fix my issue. The new word is that it's a device issue in some cases. For me, it does appear to be the device since I've done a FDR and tested multiple chargers, chords, OEM and carrier options. Contacting Samsung today as a DOA device. I'll let you know what happens. :fingers-crossed:

If you are hooking it up to a computer to charge, you will not get fast charging. It has to be plugged in with the power plug only to get a fast charge.

I got a replacement device by warranty and it's charging exactly as it should. All of my cables and plugs are working.
Wow...it's fast...faster than expected even! I'm loving the new Note, now! Just one of those things that happens sometimes.
Good luck with getting yours working. I should think it would be covered by the warranty.
Happy holidays to you and yours!
replacement
How long did it take to get a replacement? Had my phone for almost a month now and its very on /off with the charging. When i first got it it showed fast charger connected and got 50% charge as advertised in half an hour. Now it will, if im lucky charge maybe 10% in an hour. Just now, went to bed with 13%. 5hrs later it got to 32%. Havent tried a different cable and plug combo yet.

Another thing to check, make sure the standard usb end is snug in the charging adapter. Mine wasn't fast charging, but it was slow charging (I think - showed lightening bolt in battery icon) and then I pushed the usb into the fast charging wall adapter a little more and it resolved the issue
Hey, I was wondering if you're still experiencing this problem; I have the same model number & have the same problem.

I've had my Note since December last. It was fast charging just fine for about a month then I noticed it became sporadic, then it went to slow charge after that, then stopped charging altogether.
I changed the cable and it started to fast charge again for about a month and the same thing happened. It just deteriorated over time until it stopped charging.. So this is what I've been doing since. I'm on my third cable now. I've been wondering if the higher voltage etc, that enables the fast charge feature breaks the cable down. Just a thought:confused.
I had the same issue when I just got my note 4 a few months back. It turn out to be the charger that is causing the problem. I went to the service centre (in Singapore), the reception told me it is a common problem with the charger. Had it changed and the problem solved.
fast charge
So my problem was that the first days fast charging was working then I deside to desable the fast charge and now I can't enable I need help
Hi guys,
I recently brought a new Note 4 two weeks ago and its awesome, but 2 times this week now I've stuck the phone on charge to get a boost & the fast charge facility has not kicked in.. meaning its only charged about 20% in 30minutes.
If I restart the Note it seems to correct itself but it is a bit frustrating that the phone is less than a month old and 1 of its main selling points isn't working properly.
I have got a sm-n910f running Lollipop 5.0.1
My phones not rooted and I usually clear open apps before sticking the phone on charge.
Fast charge is toggled on. Can anyone give me any suggestions to what might fix this?
I put this query into the battery thread this morning but didnt get a response, so apologies for clogging up the forum but I am hopeful that some genius on Xda can give me some help here [emoji3]
Thanks for your help
Fast chargin is working only till 50% If you are more than 50, then it is charging with normal speed.
Thanks @Matin.salat I know this. When put my phone on charge at 15% and went to check it 20-25 minutes later it had only crept up 9% to 24%
do you get the "adaptive fast charger" (or something like that) notification when you plug it in? are you using the supplied cable? power only cables do not work with quick charge; needs to be data+power.
AFAIK Fast Adaptive charging only works if you have the specific adapter (charging block) that is capable of it. Are you using the original charger that came with the Note 4?
Below is a link to the part on samsung's website;

Yep using the correct charger and usb cable that comes with it. I chucked my phone on charge at 14% at 17:45 today. Went to grab my phone at 20:00 and its only at 43% charged.
I'll be taking it back and replacing it tomorrow or sunday.. I must have a faulty handset!!!

Hey.. I am using a SM-M910C. I had a similar problem just like you. My device is just 4 months old. Fast Charging used to work properly until a week back suddenly I noticed that it wasnt charging fast. Just like you mentioned, it was charging extremely slow. I checked everything to find out whether the problem was with the phone, power brick or cable. I borrowed my friends cable and tried it on and voila it was working fine. It was showing fast charger connected in notifications. So then I remember that, I had used the same charger and cable to charge my Power Bank before that. And I clearly remember the cable being hot at the time when I removed it. So figured that the cable got burnt off or something. Because the cable needs to have a particular resistance in order to support fast charging. Went and bought a new authentic cable and now fast charging is working as it used to. Never gonna charge the power bank with it anymore.
Hope this helps. Cheers!

I did the same thing. It took almost 8 hours to fully charge it so i borrowed my wifes S5 charger and voila, fast charging again.
The o2 shop swapped my charger and usb cable and its all good now [emoji3]
fast charging not working
Hi we have similar issues, my Note 4 is almost for months old in my hands and I have no issues with fast charger before..it was just happened after I updated my Android version to 5.1.1 lollipop..and now this happened I started charge my phone at 6:47 pm and finished 9:15 do you think its normal ? sounds stange ! normally before Its finished just only 90 minutes..hope some one can help my problem and fix it.. thank you
Hey guys, yesterday i noticed something strange: it took 3+ hours to charge my S5 from 8% to 100%. I remember that it used to take around 2 hours at the very maximum from 0% to 100%. Then i remembered that my cable with which I'm charging is not the original one (it got cut long ago) but the charger itself is the original. Is something wrong with my battery? Is the charger bad? Should i search for an OEM usb cable? I don't mind it if it charges for longer as i charge it at night but still, this got me a bit worried that it can degrade my battery overall by keeping it hot for longer than needed. Thanks for any answers.

My phone gets hot when I use a non OEM cord as well. But its never hurt my phone. I've been doing it for probably a year now. As for the longer charge time is it suddenly taking longer with this cord or is it taking longer because you are now using the cord?

Well not sure as i mostly charge it at night. But my phone's battery life is normal while using it (atleast for now), just curious why it takes so long to charge.
Different cords have different capabilities depending how they were made. There's even some that only give power and no data transfer. Samsung makes fast charge technology for their devices. Other cords may or may not support it.

Hm, I always thought that fast charging is inside the charger itself and not the cord. Might get an official Samsung one then. Thanks for the info mate

It comes with the USB cord as well. And I'm pretty sure fast charge tech is both the handset and the charger itself. I read the charger is 1.5x faster then a normal one even if its not going to a device with fast charge and 2x faster if it is. I didn't mean to quote myself either. Lol
Hi, I got a Nothing Phone (1) around 20 days back. Ever since the Phone has received only one system update that too was just a couple of days ago. I thought the battery drainage was something that happened from the beginning. A couple of days back, the phone wasn't charging. I was using a third-party adapter, One Plus Warp Charger for One Plus 7T my previous phone. Anyone facing battery issues with third-party charging. I am getting myself the Nothing Adapter for sure. I just hop I am not too late. I love the experience but battery life and charging issues are something I don't want to deal with again!!
I'm have been using third party 35w charger since I got my Nothing. Working perfectly fine, charging fast, battery working fine as usual. Nothing Adapter kinda pricy to me so....

Better invest in a proper charging adapter because the one you're using rn have different technical specs comparing to the Nothing phone adapter
