Does using the AC charger charge the phone any quicker than using the USB charger?
I know I could try it, but Im trying to open as little of the packaging as possible in case I send the phone back.
I cant believe it takes SO long to charge and yet so little time to discharge
Should the phone be switched off when charging? It seems that if it is on, it drains the battery quicker than it charges??
Mine has been on charge since just after 9am and it is at 76%! I got to go to work in an hour
91 minutes ago I took the galaxy off charge . Dow
n to 81% battery. 30 minutes of that was travelling on my bike.
Ill be generous and say I spent 10 minutes browsing. That is some terrible battery life.
using AC adapter / mains power is always going to be faster than charging via usb because usb can only draw a certain amount of power... and no it does not matter if it is on or off when charging .. when battery is full it stops charging...
next... the battery life is fine. I get two days use with have HSPDA / wifi on 24/7 .. I listen to music for about 2 hours a day... email is getting pusher over as soon as possible...
Use advanced task killer.... and other memory 'cleaners' ...
and turn auto brightness off and set it to minimum when you can
Dear friends today morning I face this issue which is once I wakeup I remove the charger from the phone it was 100% then less that 30 sec it becomes to 97%
So I decided to empty the battery to 0% till the phone switched off by itself and recharge it agane from 0%-100% it takes around 2h so once I unplugged it form the charger it becomes again to 97% in 26 sec
So anyone have any way to solve this issue or I have to format the phone by reseting it to factory status ...?!

By the way I figured out that the problem caused by the charger it self I try to charge it with different one and it works fine

In my case it seems to charge only with the Original charger. Not even with a samsung car charger that i used for my S II. Battery is draining very fast indeed.
Hello guys, i want to ask you some questions about the note 3 battery. So..:
1. When on 13%, i plugged it on the wall using the stock charger. Exactly one hour later, it went up to 75%, like 1% per minute. After another 20 minutes, it went to 91%, slightly slower. 20 minutes later it was at 98%, and it needed another 20 - 25 minutes to charge completely from 98%. Is it normal? In total, it needed 2 hours and 10 minutes to charge completely from 13% and i guess it would need another extra 10 minutes to charge from 1% to 100%. These numbers are normal for the note 3?
2. I noticed that from 100% until 90%, the battery discharges faster than from 90% and down. Is this normal too? With moderate and maybe light use, and i mean some gaming, a little messaging and calling and browsing, from 100% i managed to come to the 13% mark in 2 days and 3 hours, and i thing is a pretty good number.
3. As i said, i have the stock charge that is 2 parts, the one that fits the wall and the other the usb cord. Some days ago, i left it overnight charging from 15%, and 6-7 hours later it was at 70%. I have one battery app installed and it said that it recognized the charger as a USB charger and not as an AC charger. I pushed the usb cord to fit better in the other part and then it recognized it as an AC charger. First, as it recognized it as a usb charger, is normal to need so many hours to charge it this way? I havent use it directly to a pc via usb to see how much time it needs to charge thiw say. And second, why the phone recognized the charger as usb and not ac? Its because that the cord didnt fit quite well in the first place or is it because of some sort of malfunction?
Thanks in advance guys!
EDIT: Sorry guys, I didnt notice the "no questions in the general forum!
2 things.
1) battery percentage is an estimate. For the health of the battery, they tell you it's 100% at anywhere between 85-100% actual charge.
2) charging speed is largely dependent on voltage differential. a battery at 3 volts can receive charge faster than a battery at 4.2 volts.

1 and 2 are normal. 3 is nothing to worry about.. When you have charging issues or something, just reboot ur phone...
hello. i I bought a new battery (official) and now i have some problems with charging.
first of all when the battery is fully charged and the icon is 100% my phone stops maintain the charge. i mean i can check phone and it will show 100% for all the time the charge cable IN. but when i pull off the cable the icon shows me 88% or smt... then i pull in the cable and wait 100% again... then pulling off the cable and the icon shows me 90-91% already. i do the same thing several times before the icon shows me 100% when the cable is off...
during the day using my phone it stars to lose charge very quickly from about 50%. for example the battery discharing from 100 to 50% within 3-4 hours and only for 30 minutes when the charge is 50-0
i tried different roms eg official... CM12 .. some custom roms... but nothing worked. im using CM13 for now...
help pls
You got a bad battery. I would take or send it back to the store and demand a replacement.
My wife's S7 Edge just upgraded to Oreo about a week ago.
Just noticed that the phone won't fast charge any more even though my S7 Edge (Unlocked firmware) charges just fine on same charger/cable in fast charge mode (the phone used to charge in fast charge mode before).
It charges very slow as well (50% -> 100% in about 3 hours 45 minutes).
Yes, fast charge setting is enabled, I tried clearing cache partition. Haven't tried to factory reset though (trying to avoid it since she may kill me if she has to setup everything again).
I had this problem yesterday probably because my cord is coming apart
