Hi guys, i need to know what happen if i charge my nexus 6p with another charger. Actually i'm using an original samsung galaxy s1 charger with usb c adapter. Does it damage the nexus 6p's battery or it just charge it slowly (it has less volatge)?
Just slower

brand new nexus 7 16gb, i rooted and the plugged it in to an external battery and it refuses to charge. I've used 3 different cables, 2 different external batteries and it wont charge but my nook and galaxy nexus charge just fine. I plugged it in using hte same cable to the wall or a pc and it charges, anyone know whats going on?
What's the amperage output on it? Honestly 2 is just barely enough, 1 amp out is REALLY slow and any less just won't work.

5v 2amp on the external the battery was the designed to charge tablets
Same issue here, whether I'm using the New Trent 9900 or XPAL 8000. These packs work with other ones and tablets just fine though.
I have 3 USB external batteries with 2A 5V output
that work perfectly for my iPad 2, Galaxy Tab 2 7.0,
as well as my HP Touchpad.
For some strange reason, my Nexus 7 will not allow
it to be charged from any of them.... probably just
how Google designed it?
I think it is an ASUS thing... My transformer has the same issue.. by the way , not all 2A chargers
Work...

I have a New Trent IMP1000, 1A output and it won't charge either. Goes from "Discharging" to "Not Charging" on the battery screen.
Hi,
I just bought a Nexus 7 and noticed that it has a different charger than the Android smartphones I have, e.g. Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus. However, the connection is still the same.
My question is, is it safe to use a smartphone charger with my Nexus 7, just to have less stuff lying around? Is it safe to use the 7's charger with my smartphone? Will I break my devices if I do it?
Thanks!
Perfectly safe. The Nexus charger puts out slightly more current than most phones, worst case it will charge them slightly faster, just as a phone charger will be a little shower with the tablet.

You won't break your devices, but it would take an extraordinarily long time to charge your N7 with the phone's charger. Conversely, the phone is not going to charge exponentially faster using the tab's charger. So, all in all, wile it's not ideal, you won't be hurting anything.

So I can just keep my Nexus 7 charger and use it for every other gadget, and put the other chargers into a drawer? That's nice to know, thanks guys.

The phone won't charge any faster using the N7 charger, but the tablet on the phone charger would be significantly slower- to the point that even moderate use while plugged in would result in still draining the battery. Assuming no use while charging, the tablet would require several hours more than normal for a full charge.

I disagree, my galaxy prevail charges twice as fast on my n7 charger than with a standard phone/car charger. However my n7 does take forever on the phone/car charger. Literally like 8hrs+ to reach 100%.

Check the 'mA' or 'A' rating on the charger.. The higher it is, the faster it will charge.
the charger I got bundled with Nexus 7 is outputing 2A (2000mA to be exact), which is quite higher than most phone chargers
(I've got chargers with standard 500mA & with 800mA).
I've been using the Nexus 7 charger for charging my ZTE Blade and nothing seems wrong using it..
A phone's charging circuit will automatically restrict the current to the specs needed by the phone.
PS: 'A' stands for 'Amperes' & 'mA' stands for 'milli Amperes ', both are units of measuring current.
I really need the stock charger I lost mine :'( ......any body know where to get one????
I got mine from buychina. Search for nexus 4 chargers and there will be 3 that look like the ones out of the box (2 prong if you're in the US). One of them is the 1.2mAh charger

You can also use a different charger.
I'm using an original Samsung charger.
Better for me cuz the stock charger makes a strange noise
i hate and won't let me sleep :angel:
You really don't need to buy an OEM charger. In fact, 1.2A is quite low for a good USB charger nowadays, you can use a 2A charger. It may not improve charging time though, only a little perhaps.
Okay, let me start off by saying that I am complete noob when it comes to electrical matters, so excuse the silly question here...
I have found a USB powered QI charger for the Nexus 4 on eBay with an input of 5V and an output of 5V/1A. Two questions following from that...
1) Will the charge time be the same as if I just charged via USB?
2) Instead of connecting the USB end to my PC, could I not connect it to supplied Nexus 4 wall charger? If so, does it specs comply with those of the QI charger I just mentioned (i.e. will I get a fast charge time?)
Thanks in advance for the support.

Expect the charge times to be more compared to the Usb charger.. It can be ordered on fasttech.com for $40. Yes.. usb powered.. The AC adapter one on fasttech is $35.. All hav free shipping!!!!!
ii) That would depend on how much power the wireless charger needs.. The normal nexus 4 adapter is 1.2A.. If the wireless charger wants 1.5A, it will be slower due to less power... but since it is USB powered.. normal pc/laptop usb ports give 0.5A so your original nexus 4 adapter will be fine!!!!
Also.. wirless charging tends to heat up the phone sometimes.. so watch your temps..
I have the Energizer Qi charger and they warn that the Nexus supplied wall charger should not be used to power the WiFi charger. It doesn't have the power capacity to run the wireless charger.

The cahrging rate is almost the same
The power requirment for this charger is 5v 2A input. According to my test, as long as your power supply stay above 1A output, you will have no problem at all, just will charge a little bit slower. but once I hooked up with a samsung charger that was rated at 700ma, the red light goes on after a beep. The problem is, most of the usb chargers in the market are overrated that's why you will get red light on with these inferior charger. I purchased mine from a seller on eBay called gadgetsalon who included a original HP Touchpad adapter with my purchase which is fully rated 2A output, I have been using mine for almost 2 months now never had a single problem ever with my Tmobile GS3. BTW, I charge my phone with a ballistic case on all the time.

I'm using a new iPad charger, the 12w version.
It's rated as a 5.2v 2.4a adapter. This is actually more than the s4 adapter which comes in the box which is rated 5.0v 2.0a.
The stock adapter charges the phone whilst I'm using it no problem yet the iPad charger says its charging but only seems actually increase my % when the screen is off. I don't understand this. Same cables so its not that.
The apple charger has pins 2 and 3 configured differently than the Samsung charger.
The phone will therefore not go into fast charge mode
You would need to properly modify a usb cable to get the phone to start fast charging using the apple charger.

Thanks. Is there an app to monitor real time current stats or voltages being received?
