I ordered a dual cradle charger which I presumed would be suitable for either an S5 or an S5 Neo, which I have, as it's handy to be able to keep not only my phone but the spare battery charged as well.
However on delivery the charger has a USB3 connection which evidently the normal S5 takes, unlike the S5 Neo which needs a USB2 connection, the same as the normal charger lead. Obviously the other dual charges, as I had for my S$ are a different size cradle due to the different size of the phone.
Does anyone know if there is a dual cradle charger out there for the S5 Neo, as I can't seem to find one ?.
Thanks in advance

Is it safe to use a Note 3 5.3V charger on S4
Note 3 Charger is 5.3V
S4 charger is 5.0V
is it safe to use on S4?
Yes. But if you use a different cable it will likely charge differently given the S4 cable is designed to allow faster charging than previous Samsung phones, and even the different charger with the Samsung cable might mean it doesn't charge the same way either (haven't tried myself); this thread has good info.
Hi folks,
I happened to have lost my original charger for Samsung Galaxy Note 3, and all I have now is the USB cable. For emergency purposes, I need to charge my phone and it doesn't charge fast connecting to a PC. I do have an adapter for Samsung Galaxy S4.
Is it OK to use the USB cable on Samsung Galaxy S4 Adapter and charge my device? Or will there be a problem?
My phone battery is a 3.8 V Li-ion and 12.16 Wh
The Galaxy S4 adapter shows an output value of 5.0 V and 2.0 A
Awaiting replies at earliest ...
Thanks!

If that's hard ... can anyone holding a Galaxy Note 3 please post your output value mentioned on the original adapter?

It should be fine, most wall charges are fine. If you want faster charging you can make a charge only cable (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwKCXJc1iTc) and it will always charge at max speed. While this isn't good for your PC, it works perfectly for car chargers.
Any 5MV charger will work perfectly.
The official Note 3 charger is 5.3V - 2A, so using a 5V adapter will be fine, just a bit slower.
I use my old HD2 and S3 charger half the time.
using a 2A charger will be fine. 1A charger need double of the time

Hi,
I tested various chargers and usb cables, including the normal micro usb from the older devices, most of them works like a charm
Including my old OTG dongle (usb 2.0), I didn't yet compare the speed difference between both...

buy any chinese charger man it'll be a gud alternate for d original one
You can use pretty much anything.
I charge my Note 3 with the original one (5.3v/2A), I charge it with a Note 2 charger (5.0v/2A) and I charge it with an old Nokia charger (don't recall voltage but it is 0.8A). It will just charge slower, but otherwise works perfectly.
battery problem
recently I've bought a galaxy tab s 8.4 , but take too mach time (about 6 hours) to charging with it's stock charger (5.3 v , 2.0 A) , when i charged with note 4 charger (5 v , 2.0 A) , it charged normal (about 2.5 hours)
now i have two questions :
1. the note 4 charger is suitable for my device ? isn't bad for battery life ?
2.is it possible that the stock charger was fake !!!???
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?
Weird. My old s4 charger works properly

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.

Just wondering if you ever found a fix for this.
I just got a couple of these new "built in" charging outlets. My outlets are 5VDC 3.0A and they work fine with every other device I have except the Samsung Galaxy S5.

the same here... i have the capdase ampo r2 dual charger... it's able to charge my note 3 but note my note 10.1 2014 and my kid's tab 3 7.0... it has an output of 5v 3.1a (2.1a and 1a)... i'm pretty sure it's not a problem with the tablet coz it charges with i use their original samsung chargers...
Hi. I'm new here but not new with Android and S5.
I am wondering if anyone else tried to measure the Bundled S5 charger performance. Anyone?
I got my S5 on the first day it was available locally. Then I tried to measure its charging and was surprised to see that the voltage was much higher than usb specs. I am wondering if it is still safe to use 5.6-5.7V charging mobile phones. I think 5.3v is still on the safe side, but I think 5.6v is stretching too much. I'm guessing Samsung used 5.3v to hasten charging a little bit (A x V = W), but was also surprised that S5 saps only 1.75A even though the bundled charger is rated as 2A @ 5.3v.
I know that the charger should output less than 5.3v when a device is attached because of the power load. But it seems that is not the case.
I haven't used my S5 charger frequently, I still often use my S3 charger and my powerbank which are only giving out 5v.
I am asking here first before I go to Samsung Store and try to have it replaced. I don't want to waste effort going there if all S5 chargers are the same anyway.
I am unable to directly post links, so please see the attached image and the youtube video with the video ID.

Hello,
My brother's galaxy s4 i9505 need a new charger because its original charger broke. So i did some searching on the internet, and found out that i9505 support qualcomm quick charge 1.0, and also found a charger which support quick charge ( EP-TA20ewe ), but the problem is that if the EP-TA20ewe charger is a quick charge 1.0 charger or 2.0 charger. Even if the charger supports quick charge 2.0 is it possible for my brother to charge his phone with the charger?, that seems logical for it to support, but i dont know if EP-TA20ewe is for note 3 or note 4 or s3 or s3 , i dont know for which mobile phone model samsung has designed for.
Can you guys please help me find the original samsung charger for samsung galaxy s4 i9505 which supports qualcomm quick charge 1.0 for EUROPE , and i would like it to support 2.0 if it can charge s4 without any heat problem etc.
Thanks
I dont know if i posted this post at a right place, sorry for that
Amazon for your country should have them. I just went to amazon.co.uk and searched for Galaxy S4 charger. The first two hits were for chargers. There may be more in the 144,000+ results.
Failing that, call Samsung. They should be able to sell you a charger.
