before i got my galaxy s i used to own the htc desire,
now when i charge the galaxy s with its own charger i never get more than 12 hours of standby and the battery just dies
with the htc desire charger i get more than one day of battery life, actually now after 1d 45min since being unpluged i still got 42% of battery life (with the exact same usage as my everyday usage)
now after checking the output voltage in both i found out that they both output 5volts , but the galaxy s is 0.7 amps, while the desire is 1amp
so do you think that i should keep using the htc desire's charger to charge the galaxy s, or this slight increase in amp can damage the phone.
by the way , i tried 2 different samsung chargers , and they both give me no more than 12 hours of standby time , so i know that i do not have a problem in the charger.
any help will be appreciated
thanks
You are tempting me to buy a htc charger as I am dying to get it past 12 hrs of usage.

I'm in the same situation as you and after charging with HTC charger I got a lot of extra battery life!!
I don't think that the increase in amps could damage the phone or battery
thx for the info i will test this to i'm getting now one day off heavy use with my sgs
report will also follow
Sent from my GT-I9000
The total amount of extra battery life was about 50% for me yesterday. Great!!

Gonna try with my old Diamond's wall charger. 5V 1.0A. Let's see...
oooh! Is it a desire or the desire HD? might buy that charger too!
I didn't even know chargers make a difference? How is it a charger even does that?

Thanks in advance! .)
My Samsung Charger just stopped working and I only have my HTC HD2 charger to use so I haven't got a clue. Just shows how rubbish the Samsung one is though i barely used it as it is and its broken.
This is very peculiar to me.
The charger shouldn't be making a huge difference, but the way I see it, if the charger is output more current to the battery in a faster period of time, it might be charging the battery "more" or over charging, or the samsung undercharging.
The battery life of a phone SHOULD be determined by the mAh rating of the battery. and if both chargers are charging the phone until "100%" then they should not be draining at different rates.
The best way to test this is to get a sustained load and put it on the batteries and see if they match up to the rated mAh ratings. I wish i was still in school so i had access to this stuff so i could test it.
who cares if more amps cause damage, the only damage it will cause is to the battery.
the average battery should last the same as the phone - say 3 - 4 years ??
so if using the HTC charger ruins the battery is 2 - 3 years, who gives a **** lol, aslong as my battery life increases, im happy to buy a replacement charger in 2 - 3 years, BUT by then i would have moved on to another device anyway.
I say if it works, USE IT !!! to hell with the consequences, live life to the max !!
Thanks for sharing this info. I will give it a try with my friend's HTC charger...
Just to add to this.
USB outputs 5v +- 10% & between 500-900mA so if you charge via USB this would have the same effect would it not?
thanks alferret for that info , i really wanted to know that, so now i guess there's no harm in using the htc charger,
i am using it now as my phone charger , and i am getting no problem so far
thanks
Guys if your charger breaks the problem might be the chargers plug or mini usb (iv bought a cheap charger and it was charging but i could not use the phone literally i thought iv burned the screen)iv opened up mine and one of the wires(mine was the black one)was detached try opening with something sharp its really easy to do
just try it those cables detach really easy
Or if your really lazy buy one if you wanna
Funnily enough, yesterday at work I used a Sony Ericsson charger, just top up my phone a bit. Went from 80 to 100 percent in virtually no time.
Strange. I will check my chargers at home
Mine too , after one month and i`m using an LG charger

On Motorola and HTC phones (maybe others as well), chargers are a Micro USB cable with a USB adapter. I wish Samsung would do the same. Much more eco-friendly.
Thanks for the info. I will give it a try with my wife HTC charger.

Hi Guys,
I am looking for an Emergency Battery Charger for Desire HD.
Mainly i want something on the cheap and light to carry. Here is what i have found. Please help me, which one should i buy:

4)1500mAh Extended Backup
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Extended-Back...709?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item45f6a04fa5
the first one seems rubbish, only 350mah? and the output current is half that of a usb port.. i don't think it will even charge your phone at all and probably only slow down the battery discharge.
I've found this one:

i bought the first one (it was really cheap) and have it on my keyring with my keys, yes, of course it only slows down the battery dying, what did you expect? it is a tiny battery for EMERGENCY use, not a backup battery that can fully charge your phone multiple time for god's sake!
anyway, from 15% battery it charged it to 80% in about 35 minutes
Not a particularly cheap option but I use a Powermonkey Traveller. Although it was relatively expensive it can charge 'almost' anything with it's range of adaptors. It's seen me through many a smartphone, PSP, DSi, camera emergency!
Just my thoughts...

the product says: "You can charge this charger by USB or Sunlight."
USB ... >> OR << ... Sunlight ?
what does that mean? if the battery charging through sunlight i'm not able to charge the phone? Or won't it be possible that the battery charges throught sunlight while the mobile is charging ?
work that thing only with sunlight oder may with roomlight too?

It means that the external battery can be charged by USB or sunlight: I've tested that if it's charged by USB in daylight is more rapid to charge it.
If the external battery is attached to the phone, the phone charges itself and if the charger is under sunlight it charges itself.
thanx =)
and will it only charge under sunlight or maybe in the room too ?

massive 5000mah battery (charged my DHD twice and still had juice). only thing it its quite big and heavy. works well though and if you have 2 USB cables you can charge 2 devices at once. came in useful when my girlfriend forgot her charger when she stayed over. definitely not something to carry in your pocket, but for leaving in a bag it cant be beaten.

Hey man, did you complete your work or even start whole trade of yours
Not the cheapest but will charge almost "anything" and it has a 5000mAh battery, go to Amazon and search for Veho VCC-A007-PBP Pebble.
I use this 5000mAh battery pack. It works very well, I get about 4 full charges from it and is able to charge 2 devices at the same time.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/TeckNet-Uni...dible-Blackberry/dp/B000NDQ92W/ref=pd_cp_ce_1
I bought the 4th one - 1500mAh Extended Backup. It works well enough for me. I get more or less a full charge out of it.
So I was wondering if I could find the original G2 wall charger, the one that came in the box. I bought my phone from craigslist and that guy didnt have the charger for some reason. I've been using some motorola one and very happy with it cause it didnt have rapid charging and battery life was great too (not sure if the charger plays a role). But couple weeks ago the wire got loose and wouldnt connect properly, so I bought this: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...331986&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_1184wt_950
Ever since I've been using that my phone goes to 100% from 10% in two hours, and battery life has been bad too since using that. I have used the phone the same was as before, I even calibrated it again, tried it with setcpu and no setcpu, used edge only also, tried different roms, used just wifi only etc, and battery life still not same as before. I mean it has to be the charger right? Otherwise it wouldnt have made a difference in using a different one. So I'm trying to find opinions from you guys to see if I can find the original one ( I have no idea what it looks like) or a similar one from ebay/amazon. Thanks for reading!
What is the rated Output on the charger that you have? The stock one is supposed to put out 1 Amp (1000 ma). It isn't uncommon for it to go from 10 to 'full' in 2 hours, but just because the phone shows it full, doesn't mean its there. Are you charging overnight or just for that 2 hour period?
Yes I am charging overnight. Output says 5V, 1A, so I'm guessing thats 1000ma/1Amp?
The G2's cord is rounder at the USB end and the Plug- in end, but I would think it would not make a giant difference since I use a Motorola one since I don't know where my original one went.
OEM HTC charger
I'm not sure if your still looking, but i bought a Brand New OEM HTC charger from eBay. It was the same thing that came with G2. I'm pretty sure by the time you see this it will be sold but they list them everyday so just look at the sellers other items.
Since I'm a new user i cant post links, but the item number is 160619103766

That is the maximum current supported by the charger, but the device may request a lower current. Use something like Battery Monitor Widget or Current Widget to see how much current is actually being drawn over the USB port. The most accurate reading will be taken when the screen is off, the CPU is idle and underclocked, all radios are off, etc.
I had a cheap no-name AC adapter for my DZ, but it caused the touchscreen to go bonkers. I ended up buying one of these adapters:
http://canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?item_id=039726
Inexpensive, and having two USB ports is very convenient. One goes to my Mugen DZ charging cradle (phone + spare battery), the other to my BT headset. Any standard USB cable will work. It does not cause problems with the touchscreen, so I can continue to use the phone even while it is charging.
The best I've seen on a DZ is about 650 mA net charge, which means an empty 1800 mAh battery should be fully charged in about 3 hours.
I've seen logs of my dz charging at 680-780mA, so long as you have a 1A output charger it should charge the same. The output is the max rated output, not what its feeding to the phone to charge.
On that note most moto chargers I've seen are 700mA max out and same with a lot of samsung chargers I've owned. I use my original that came with my g2 as well as an old htc diamond wall charger with a sony usb cable lol, I get the same charge from both.

I bought a HTC Sensation from a guy and he didn't give me the genuine charger. The phone charged very slowly(6 from 1% to 100%). Since than I have tried many chargers(not genuine) and with nearly the same result. I than installed battery monitor widget. I see that while the phone is idle with the screen off it charges maximum 350mA. If i play 3D games in the meanwhile my battery goes down.
My question is how much mA does your battery charge when idle? How long does it take to fully charge? Is there any charger that I can buy from ebay or amazon that you have tried?
Sorry for the long question.Thx in advance

350mAh is very low for a maximum. How much mAh a charger uses to charge the battery depends on the battery level itself. If I'm down to say, 20%, my charger will charge at a rate of around 900-980 mAh. As the battery gets closer to full, say 90%, charging will taper off, and I might see about 200mAh.
Any charger rated at 5v - 1000mA (1A) will be what your after. I got an Australian certified charger off eBay for $10 and it does a great job.
My phone from say, 20%, on average will take around 1.5-2hrs to charge to 100%
Here's one very similar to what I bought. I had to buy one because my phone was purchased from Singapore, so obviously it didn't have the right adapter for Australia.

Sent from my CM9 Stable Sensation using XDA Premium
I bought that anker battery that everyone keeps talking about and I have to say it works great although my phone takes a little longer to charge now (I'd say between 2.5 - 3 hours for a full charge). I'm currently tackling a new issue though, since I installed stable CM9 (a week or so ago) the battery will last most of the day but not the whole day where as CM7 would make the battery last a whole 24 hours. So around 30% less time with new rom!
I used to work in a phone shop and found that most USB micro chargers will be ok (from HTC, samsung and blackberry phones) and at home I either use the official HTC charger or a blackberry one.
Hello Guys!
I got today a new P3110 and I discacharged it to 2% and I plugged it now to load.
I have seen the charger pushes 2A @ 5V , this is pretty much for a battery of 4Ah, I know from my batteries ( AA AAA and others) that the charging current should be max. 1/3 of the capacity of battery.
So my question is: IS it better to charge it with the Samsung Galaxy S2 charger which provides only 0,[email protected],1V ?
It would last app. 6h to charge it till its full ( can be done over night, hopefully the charger wont melt)....
What do you think about that? Woul it harm to battery(li poly) to do it with small current?
cheers
If the charger seems much then tell me why Samsung made it.

Battery life span is a matter of charge cycles 0%-100%-0%. That is 1 cycle and surely batteries don't discharge to 0% not charge fully to 100%
-AFAIK- Even with lithium, Its the heat build up when "fast" charging that shortens any battery life - (same with fast discharging- I would never use those apps that do so) , so I agree with shOne. I have the same model & have noticed the battery does get quite hot when mains charging,( though have never thought to check charging AH).
I would imagine that the only damage you would do with using phone charger would be to the charger, by sucking out more than it can handle, not the battery ! -
-- But why not charge it via a pc usb port - this take a lot longer (so presume much lower AH) than the mains plug in charger - Most usb pc ports are nowadays - permanently live, even when pc off - same with the usb on a modern sky/virgin box. My battery does not get hot, charging this way. I dont know what the charge rate is charging this way ,because both the inbuilt notification & my battery app say "discharging" - (although actually charging)
(I agree that Samsung have provided a quick mains charger, and wouldnt be averse to selling replacement batteries earlier than would otherwise be neccessary, !! (I wouldnt use cheap replacement batteries in any I.T. stuff - I "blew up " a laptop once as a result!!)
I believe that the 2 amp charge is reasonable with the out put of most lithium batteries for this type of device. Since it is a lithium it will not be overcharging or over heating due to sensing, it would be a serious fire hazard... fyi I use a2 amp charger from Wal-Mart and I do not notice my device really heating up...

Agreed. The worst I got was a cheap replacement off a street without a packaging for a dollar. When I plugged it in for a few minutes the battery turned extremely hit and the battery expanded as if it was a puffer fish that took an electric shock

A lot of things I bought from Hong Kong off Ebay actually came from mainland China pfff.....
It's those low quality defects they send you. Mass market goods in china doesn't require quality passes unlike Hong Kong where it's illegal once they get pass customs.

OK, electronics 101, chargers DO NOT PUSH power to a a battery, 2 AMPS is the chargers MAXIMUM OUTPUT, the device plugged to the charger PULLS what it wants (up to a maximum of 2A of current) so it can charge in a reasonable amount of time, you may be able to charge your tablet with a lower output charger but all it would do is take longer to charge (if the charger even had the power output greater then the static draw of the device), which is why most tablets simply CANNOT be charged by the USB 2.0 port on a computer or other small .5 A output chargers. You may very well charge while generating less heat, because of the slower charge cycle using the .7A S2 charger, but at the same time if you try to use the tablet while it's charging on the smaller charger it may very well drop in battery percentage as the smaller charger may not be enough to maintain the current requirements to charge the battery and run the device.
So in short, would charging with the smaller charger harm the battery, NO, but if it is enough to actually charge the device it will take atleast DOUBLE the amount of time to recharge as it would with the regular 2A charger.
I'm looking to replace the old battery of my s6 that drains (and heats up?) quickly.
A supposedly original Samsung s7e battery is sold at many websites for ~$20 such as walmart. Even if it is indeed an original (quality) Samsung battery it's still 4~5 years old? On top of that I don't have a case so I'm not too keen on the battery being 1mm thicker.
https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/Samsung-Galaxy-S7-Edge-G935W8-Battery-Replacement/PRD441YFPLP0QVC
Meanwhile on Amazon a 3800 mah li-polymer battery is sold by 'SHENMZ' with a number of reviews suggesting it has better capacity (at least 3000 mah according to accubattery) than the original S6 battery: https://www.amazon.ca/Upgraded-Rechargeable-Portable-Charging-Protective/dp/B07RN3LDVV/
This 'SPWOMYGD' one is significantly cheaper but the reviews don't look promissing: https://www.amazon.ca/SPWOMYGD-Galaxy-S6-Replacement-EB-BG920ABE/dp/B088M8FZYR/

Unfortunately I don't have any powerful chargers for this old phone. If only I could plug in my gf's macbook charger like I can with my IPad.
Dont you have a 2.0A plug? Your fones fine, just find a charger that says 2.0A or 2000mA and get on with it lol, sayin that, I dont know the usb power output of the macbook, was it the macbook you plugged into? If so, try another port?
Any powered usb hub?

Highest charger to which I can connect a usb to whatever the s6 uses cable has 5.2 volt and 1.35 a output, the rest are 5 volt, 1 a output iphone chargers.
That SHOULD work, (at least it is 1000mA more than the pc) it'll just take a wee bit longer

I haven't used the phone for the past 2 weeks or so due to the poor battery battery life, so I guess I'll plug it for 72 hours non-stop or a week or whatever and see, but I'd be really surprised if it will be as good as new .
Yeah, just dont turn it on for 24 hours, try powering on anytime after that, the good thing is if it's that flat, you dont need the capacitor, you just need to slow flash lol, but remember when your (new style) battery is run down to say 10%, it's be best to drain it completely before next charge
