I just bought the Samsung Wireless Fast Charging Pad but notice that it only charges 12% after 30 minuets meaning a full charge will take up 4-5 hours! Is this acceptable? I use the original charger that comes with the S8.
No it's not. Return it and get a new one. Also, you are using the Samsung cable too right ?

I use the Samsung cable that comes with the wireless charger and the phone shows fast charge during charging. I'll try one more time and if there's no improvement, I'll return it..
of course return it. I get it to 100% in under 3h with Choetech charger on a regular charge (no fast charge activated)

Okay so I have this metro card from Taiwan and whenever I place it against the back of my phone or if I rub it against my phone while my phone is on and unlocked my phone gives a little chime does anyone know what it exactly is and how to disable it?
Just to clarify the metro card is like a little sensor that you place on a small pad not a typical credit card no stripes the whole thing is basically a sensor
I was going to upload a picture but it doesn't seem to be working at the moment

Most likely the NFC chime.

Oh, and to disable NFC go to settings - wireless and networks - more - uncheck NFC.

ohhhh it works thanks haha it scared me when it first happened
So I woke up this morning and grabbed my phone after it had been on charge all night, I was surprised to see that it was only showing 22% full. A couple of seconds after I disconnected it from the charger the phone instantly powered off, no shutdown, just straight to black screen. I switched it back on, it booted up correctly, then as soon as it got to the home screen, it completely died again. If I plug it back in it powers on and works fine, but as soon as I disconnect it dies.
I'm assuming this is a hardware fault and I'll need to send it in for service, has anyone else had a similar issue? When I shake it next to me ear I can hear something rattling inside it. The phone hasn't been dropped and is in immaculate condition.
The rattle is normal. The shutdowns aren't. RMA time.
Have you tried a different battery? Based on those symptoms it sounds like a failing battery. I'd try to rule that out if you haven't already, before you go the rma route

Oops forgot what form I was looking at, I guess that perhaps isn't a option

Lol.
Having the same problem here, I left it on the charger overnight and woke up with 64%.
Rebooted and it was still the same, deleted batterystats.bin and now charging it again and going to see what the problem is after ruling out the software part, hopefully not a hardware problem because this phone is perfect.
Called support, they are setting up an RMA. Pain in the butt!
From the looks of it, it has used in 5 days around 28MB. It's not much, but it clearly says that it will start syncing after 1 hour when connected to the wall charger and when in wi-fi!
Anyone else notice that?
How do you check?

Aha, yeah, mine also keeps adding a few KB every day but, the first day it used 28MB!
Still, it says ONLY wifi, why does it use network data?

I have just received the above charger.
But when ever i put the Nexus 4 (Android 4.4.2) on the pad, the charging bolt goes on and off every 5 seconds. eventually the phone is not charging. Anyone else facing or faced this kind of problem? Anyone can help me out?
Hi,
I also ordered this charger some time ago (looks nearly identical to the original one).
With Nexus 4 I had no success charging.
First the phone always slips down after some minutes. When fixing it a bit, green light of charger was ok, phone also recognizes the charger with a sound. It also displays "charging" but does not really do so. So if placed for some hour, there was still the same percentage or less in the phone display.
On the other side, I gave the charger to a friend who owns a Nexus 7 , and he says that the tablet was fully charged.
I also got this chgr few days ago and greatly disappointed. I downloaded an ap sometime ago that was supposed to help with wireless chgring. It does. I found it on here. But for life of me can't find it again. Search for wireless charging app? On xda

Hi all
I've come to XDA to see if anyone can help me squeeze more life out of this great phone. So let's get down to it.
What I have done so far:
Installed Google play edition ROM
Removed bloatware
Greenified everything
Installed Ktoonesz latest kernel and applied his own settings.
Is there any other modifications I can make to get more?
Thanks
What is the serial number of your battery?

If it starts with bd you got a defective battery and needs replacement for free under warranty
If it is aa then you have the new treated battery.
