Well, I can't explain you how this happens, but it happens. To check if the charger is 2A, look at the charger and look for OUTPUT. There you should see the voltage and, in front of it, the Amper value. It would be preferable to use a Samsung 2A charger.

The problem isnt with the power brick. It is related to the rom that you are using. It seems that motion rom has this bug. I personally love this rom and i was using it and also a rom that was based on it and they have this awful problem but because i have note 4 and it has 2A quick charger im using it and it kinda charges a litttle bit faster but its still slow compared to charging on stock 4.4.2. Its annoying tho and i will try a different rom today!

I had a similar issue with my tablet.It took 8 hours to charge.All i did was to change the original USB cable and used a standard one with the original charger and it charged normally after that.
You can use Ampere(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.ampere&hl=el) to measure the charge current.

BTW, how do you get 1200mA? What app do you use?

1200 is the default charging value, with screen on. With some custom kernels you can also charge at 1900 with the screen being on. Screen off is 1900 anyway (with proper charger and cable).

CHARGING ISSUE - WALL SOCKET vs USB

My NOTE 3 SM-N9005
is having issues when charging using wall socket. At first it charged up to 82%, then 56% and now 31% BUT when plugged into USB port it charges up to 100%. I believe it may be something with software. I have JB 4.3.3 and I dont want to upgrade to a KITKAT at least not now.
Anybody having some ideas. Why it does not charge via WALL SOCKET but works fine VIA USB.
I cannot ask for replacement I bought in the USA and now I am back to my country so warranty is of no use.
PLEASE HELP.
Is the adapter is original? Not a fake one?

That is the problem with your apple charger.
You can check by yourself by using the Samsung cable and plug into the USB port on the PC to see if it works OK.
So the problem should be the charger.

OK it does charge via USB port on my PC but now every time I try charging via wall socket it charge less and less. Since warranty is out of question I was scared to death and wall charging charges 3x faster
Ok I guess I will have to find another USB charger, preferably original one.
I read lot of posts about people having issues with NOTE3 charging and it is scary.

No need to scary, your problem is just a apple charger.
You need to change to another charger and the thing will be ok.
BTW, to original charger for Note3 is 2A/5.3VDC. How about your apple charger? I doubt it does not have enough power to charge the Note 3.

Ohhhh, as I've said, this charger does not have enough power. Our Note 3 requires 5.3V / 2A, but this one only 5V / 1A.
You need another "stronger" charger.
Thanks

Problem with charging the battery!!!!

A friend of mine owns a Glaxy Grand 2 (obviously ) he has a problem with charging his battery. It takes him from 5 to sometime 6-7 hours and despite that the phone charges until it goes to 90-94 % and then it stucks there. If he remove the battery and open the phone again the battery is fully charged.
Any tips or a solution?
My thought was that its an ROM problem.
What is yours?
Thank you in advance!
maybe the firmware problem are you on latest firmware?

check your charger. it should be 1Amp. If it is 0.7Amp output, then it will get stuck at 94 to 95%
click on thanks if you think I helped.

Is it recommended to change the suggested charger that comes in the box... I dont know at this point if it is 0.7A or 1A, but will there be no problem to change to a charger with 1A output if its 0.7?

Yes its the first thing that i asked him, maybe a reinstall of the ROM could fix things. But i thought i would ask if anyone else had the same problem.
you should try re flashing the whole rom using odin otherwise go to a samsung repair center
I have exactly the same problem,
Sometimes it stuck on 92%,93%,94% but sometimes it works perfectly

Mt SM-G7102 came with 1A charger. My wife has the S2 which comes with the 0.7A charger. if I use the S2 Charger, my Grand 2 gets stuck on 94%. If I use the Grand 2 charger, charges right up to 100 percent with no hiccups.

Not a perfect solution....can anyone help....everyone should purchase S2 charger...hahahaha

you seem to have replied without reading.
the S2 charger is 0.7A and the GRAND 2 charger is 1.0 A. so, buying a S2 charger will never help. You will be stuck on 94% for a very long time. You need a 1A charger for Grand 2.

Well, in that case, have you thought of getting it checked by Samsung? Maybe its a hardware fault?

Me Too!
I have this problem too!
I flashed by Samsung firmware 4.3.3 again and it's NOT solved
Hi MY Samsung Galaxy Grand 2 mobile is not getting charged. when it is of 40% I connected to charger, when I see it after 10 mints it went down to 10%. I tried with different chargers to make my mobile battery full but its got getting charge. so if some one knows how to get slove this problem please let me know.
Thank you.
This one kind of problem is kinda the hardware based and not the software. As you can see guys, if you reviewed every single reply and solution. The charger is the problem with some replies, so the charger from S2 will make you get stucked on some certain point of 90% to 94% but if the Grand 2 charger will never have problem.
Conclusion: Use you're own charger (Typically the original charger u have when u got ur phone)

Question about not original charger

Hi, so.. I forgot my charger at work.. and everyone around me use iphones and I have to charge my phone
I found an old samsung galaxy 1 charger, and so far it's charging pretty good..
but I want to make sure that it's safe. do you guys know if using a samsung charger can do any damage to my battery?

Nope, it's fine. It might charge slower, but the voltage will be the same. A non-android compatible charger will only charge at 500mAh due to the way Android determines USB vs AC charging, that's really the only difference you'll ever see on such a charger beyond the capacity of the charger itself, which would just manifest itself as slower charging.

Charging

I have s3 Neo i9301i.. from 4 months.
Before it charged well and fast but now the charging is annoying.
It take a lot of time to charge (3-4hrs) and while in use during charging it charges about 1% for 10minutes.
I am on Ciro rom v2....based on motion v17...
Could somebody give a fix ?
Buy a 2A charger. It solved my problem
