Cannot charge with powerbank . - Galaxy Note 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I cannot charge my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 with my powerbank . Help me .

Are you using the lead that came with the Powerbank, or the Samsung USB lead. I have a similar power pack but the Note only charges with the lead from the power pack as they have adapted the connection for Samsung tablets.

Probally down to ampage, the output needs to be 2amp i think but phones only need 1amp

I was using a Zagg Sparq which had a high-output USB port for tabets. The Note wouldn't indicate that it was charging (no lightning bolt through the battery indicator) but it in fact was. I got the Samsung battery pack and it works fine now and the Note charges a lot faster than it did with the Sparq. The Samsung has a daisy chain feature which is cool so if both the battery pack and device need to be charged it's smart enough to charge the device first before itself. It's a bit pricey though but it's 9,000 mAh and incredibly small and light. It also comes with a one foot USB cable for the Note and one for micro USB.

Any signal about the power bank when you using your power bank charging your devices?

Most power banks are wired for Apple devices - being the marketing lead - and you need a converter. I found one that works perfectly but I cannot locate it at the moment. I found this while looking though, just order one - may make it easier not to have to carry quite so many things: http://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B009ZQKMDA

solution
The simple things first.
make sure your power bank is fully charged
Make sure it has a 2A output. Modern power banks have both 1 Amp and 2 Amp.
On other sites it is recommended to sever the green and white wire in the Samsung usb to Samsung connector cable. On the Samsung side the green and white wires are joined together (signal wires).
This will not do the job on a Samsung Note 10.1
What is needed is that the green and white wired joined together need to have a voltage on them of approximately 1.2 Volts. The Samsung Note 10.1 recognises this as a compatible charger.
The same can be said of a car charger.
So by using a 33Kohm resistor from the red wire (+5V) to the grren and white junction and a 10 Kohm resistor from the Black (0 Volt ) line to the same green and white junction you will produce a voltage of approx 1.2 Volts.
I have tried this. My prototype looks like a web made by a spider on **s. But I get a green charge icon - no more red cross. Finally.
Cheers

Same problem in Note 10+

But this is not Note 10 + forum .

Can't help myself for answering to this issue.
I to was having those issues on only charging with original adapter and original lead.
After updating with costum os, ressurection remix, i was flabbergasted when plugging the lead info my PC, it started charging.
From now on, original lead andere any charger will charge my note
So all is just a software issue

[Q] MHL Adapter - charging but still dropping battery

I bought a MHL Adapter (microUSB - HDMI) from DealExterme [1].
It works well, even without power, but when I put the original charger (2A), the S4 starts charging but can't even hold the charge. The charge will slowly dropping over time.
Is this normal?

Yeah this tends to happen when the phone is draining more battery then the charger is charging the phone.
Even with de 2A charger? This is a lot of power!
Not sure if that's what happens or the MHL adapter that doesn't pass the full 2A for the S4.
Someone who has the original Samsung MHL adapter can tell if the same thing happens?
I don't have this problem with the official oem samsung adapter.... Even in the manual it says to use a 2a charger from samsung to get power...

Great to know that!
Can you confirm that by using the official Samsung adapter + 2A charger the phone battery doesn't drop?
Other questions:
1. What's your S4? I9500 or I9505?
2. What's your firmware? Stock? Google Edition? Other?
3. What's your kernel? Stock?

Firstly, I don't have an S4, but I do have a Note 2 which also comes with a 2A charger. In my experience when using an MHL adapter the phone will only charge very slowly at best. If you are making it work hard, the battery will slowly drain. If I understand correctly, this is because of a limitation regarding how much power a normal USB port can supply.
When your phone is connected to a wall charger, go into settings and 'more' and tap 'battery'. At the top it should tell you it's charging, and that the type is A/C. Now plug in your MHL adapter, and plug the charger into the MHL adapter and go back into the same settings page - on my Note 2 (and also my HTC Sensation), this page now shows 'USB' instead of A/C. If the same is true with the S4 (and I'm pretty sure it will be), this is the source of the problem. It wouldn't matter if the charger was 1A, 2A or even more, the phone will only draw so much from what it thinks is a USB port. It's a pain, but there you go.
When you connect your phone to a TV via MHL, try lowering the screen brightness on the phone to minimum manually. If you have a quick search, there's also an app on here that should allow you to power of the S4's screen completely and still allow you to output a picture to the TV. Sorry, I don't have the link to hand.
Its the cable. The MHL cable is just a poor cable, if it says USB like Ouzo says then you would need to short the data pins on it or use a charge only cable (the charge only cable may not even work though).

I get the part that my MHL adapter might be delivering energy in "USB mode" instead of "AC mode".
My big question is: by the report of "big samm", it seems that the original Samsung MHL adapter does not suffer from this problem. Ie: it delivers energy in "AC mode". Is this true? I can trust and spend $ 40 on it?
If anyone can confirm, I appreciate!
I would just go for a real one from samsung so that way you won't have any problems with the battery charging because it's designed to charge + play

The problem is that I still don't have a confirmation whether in fact the original MHL Adapter solves this problem and the investment is very high (4x the price I paid for the alternate adapter).
I dont know if it's really "designed to charge + play."

The app is Screen Standby. It freezes and closes when the wizard asks to verify root + busybox. Ignoring this part of the wizard it works but when it make phone screen black all my touches start to have a delay of 8s. Any movement on the screen takes 8 seconds to be played on TV. Totally buggy.

Ah, ok, I control my phone with a Bluetooth keyboard with built in mouse (works very well for many things, but not games designed for touch input, though there is an app to help with this in the Play store), I didn't realise you'd still want to touch the screen.
Maybe someone with a genuine Samsung MHL adapter can tell us what the battery screen shows when theirs
is in use with the Samsung charger attached. Also, you could ask nztechfreak, he knows all about such things....
Ok i just checked the manual again and it says " Use only Samsung approved chargers (over1a) there you go...

This is simply beyond ridiculous.
First, let me clarify for couple people that barged in here. This problem has nothing to do with official/unofficial stuff.
I have genuine Samsung Galaxy S4, I have genuine samsung mhl 2.0 adapter, and I have genuine wall charger (2000 mA) as well as the usb cable. You can't go more official than that.
And EVEN with all that, the battery is being drained quickly, despite the mhl adapter being connected with the wall charger. This is simply beyond belief. OBVIOUSLY the phone will be on high usage when the mhl adapter is being connected, because it's the whole point, so did Samsung actually took care of the bigger battery drainage at this point, in connection with charging current? Nope.
You cannot go couple hours before the phone is dead, despite being "in charge mode". The customer uses official samsung stuff, it connects the charging cable, and yet the phone is not charging (just the drainage is slower).
If I met this Samsung CEO that is the first one on the stage to present the cashing cow everytime new galaxy is being presented (well if that's the case he is the first one to ask about his product ain't that correct?), I would ask him about this and would keep nagging this problem to him until his ears would bleed, and he would promise it will be fixed in the next update of mhl 2.0 adapter.
And just to make it clear, the problem is not with the battery drainage, but with the current being suplied from the mhl adapter. If it was 2000 mA, as it is when you connect the phone directly to the wall charger, there would be no problem. Instead it is 500 mA, as it is when you connect the phone to USB port, and because of that, the phone is dead in the manner of hours, despite "charging" (pun intended).
Amazing.
i tested i9505 with his original wall charger.
Original charger with original usb cable consumption is 1200mah
Original charger with other usb cable consumption is 460 mah
So first is important to use original usb cable.
Then i tested compatible mhl cable with original charger, its consumption is 300mah.
So the problem is the slow charging even with kernel with fast charging.
I ordered original mhl adapter, i will test it when come and post result
I'm late to the show, but will report my experience as well.
Last month on stock TW MDK using all genuine Samsung including a MHL 2.0 adapter, I also experienced battery depletion and a hot phone. I failed to check the Status to see whether it was charging at APC or USB rate.
I attributed it to the screen being on and the phone streaming movie data across the cell network.
Just now, I plugged the MHL 2.0 adapter in, then the charger, but not into HDMI. It shows USB for two seconds then it says AC on the phone Status. Same thing a couple times in a row. Plugging the charger directly into the phone goes immediately to AC charging.

Galaxy s5 2.1A car charger not working

I recently got a new Galaxy s5 on contract. I've heard that the galaxy s5 supports fast charging with a 2.1A charger. I bought a 2.1A car charger online, but the charger doesn't work when I connect it via a regular micro-USB cable to my phone. My brother's Galaxy s4 mini charges fine on it.
I was reading something on another post mentioning the need to modify the cable itself?
Any suggestions? I have another USB car charger for an iPad, and this charger also doesn't seem to work, whereas my old 1A car charger does work, but charges very slowly.

I havent tested with my Galaxy S5, but previously I had "noname" chargers and cables, and they worked fine with my HTC One S, but didnt work with my GF's Galaxy S3.
Samsung might have made devices more "sensetive" to crap products. Try different cable (try original USB cable that came with ur phone and the charger you bought).
I tried original USB but to no avail. Perhaps this has something to do with this:

The problem is most generic car chargers are designed to work with Apple products. Apple uses a non-standard way of telling their devices essentially "hey, I'm a charger." This makes "standard" devices not recognize the charger properly. The device tends to think it's plugged into a computer and only draw around 500mAh.
You can convert a USB cable into a charging cable by shorting the data pins (on the device side), or you can buy charging only cables. I've been using these cables on my S2, and now my S5: http://amzn.com/B007F1DV76 . I used a Galaxy Charging app to verify charging rate and it indicated 1.2A on both the Samsung wall-wart and cable as well as my Scosche 2.1A car charger w/ charging only cable.

Why is this? When 4 out of 5 devices are built on Android? http://tinyurl.com/qxpnyoh
I am so irritated at not having access to quality accessories for my devices. Take for example I wanted a set of great sounding headphones that controlled my mic, my tracks, etc. But, you won't find it other than Samsung's own that come with the phone. I had a great sounding pair of Seinnheisers but could not go back and forward on tracks. I plugged it into my ancient Ipod 5th gen classic and worked beautifully! For $80 I should get full functionality for my S4 or S5! My only choice is the LG Tones. Which are awesome but if my battery dies then no music or calls for me!
Frustrated!
My Klipsch earphones work perfectly changing tracks with with the inline remote.
Also my 2.1A charging won't charge my GS5 but it'll charge a GS4 and my Galaxy Exhilarate.

Anyone wanting to know how to fast charge using the usb port on your pc/laptop?
This usually takes ages compared to charging via mains lead, the hack itself is quite simple and involves modifying the usb cable
my results are as follows (these can vary depending on what you are using your phone for, what background apps running, etc.
charging with mains lead :
4.2v
998mah
mains ac
charging with STANDARD usb lead:
422mah
3.999v
standard usb
and finally the MODIFIED usb lead hack:
4.161v
782mah
usb hack
as you can see it is a 53% increase in charging compared to standard usb charging mah, and slightly under mains ac charging mah,
as my phone is always plugged in at my work pc or home pc or laptop or whatever this works out good
TUT:
use at your own risk this is for information purposes only and I hold no responsibility to any damage that may arise
using a micro usb cable (charging cable for htc phones)
cut it using a pliers half way through the cable
using pliers again cut away the thick black wiring, the red and black small wiring, and white and green wiring
from the usb port end to the microusb connect the black and red cables together so they join
from the microusb end short out the white and green cables together
from the usb port end leave the white and green cables, do not touch these
use insulation tape/solder to clean it up and then your cable is ready
I will make a mod for car chargers also soon
see attached image showing which wires to cut and which to join up and which to leave alone, if this helped you in anyway (it should help you ) then please hit the thanks button
this mod will trick your pc/laptop/htc into thinking that it is not a pc usb cable and will allow higher currents and voltage to your phone
you can check this with current widget from market place
once this mod is done, you cannot use the same cable again for pc/usb tethering or usb disk drive, only cable can be used for charging

I also bought a charger (Rapid USB Car Charger, http://bit.ly/VrK8s2) that was able to charge up to 2.1 A, but when I connect my Nexus 5 (with OEM cable), I charge with speed of 500 mA. I expected least 1 A.
I'm not amused at all! End users shouldn't have to deal with this nonsense. This should work out of the box!
I have two alternative:
1. Buy this charging cable.
2. Change kernel to trick the phone to draw more power from the USB port.

[Q] Question on how Android devices charge.

Okay so recently my car charger took a dump and I searched for one thats able to power my Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 while using GPS in the car. Found one bought it and it workes and has Apple and Non Apple ports so other devices can pull more than 500mA HOWEVER, it would still decharge while using GPS using a brand new monoprice cable. So I loaded up the battery monitor app and looked at how much of a charge my tablet is getting. These are my findings,
Note the power drawn showed roughly 500-800mA of draw while testing these cables
1. brand new micro USB cable from monoprice failed to put the device into a charging state. On either port of my charger or if it did it was roughly 200mA on the non-apple and little less than that on the apple port.
2. Modified cable shorted pins (green and white) to pull more power pulled roughly 1-1.2amps bringing charge rate around 400mA on the apple and non apple port.
3. OEM samsung cable pulled a solid roughly 2amps, put the device charging at around 1200ish mA on either port. Wtf? Same as my AC charger.
So it seems that the Samsung cable is the only one to charge my device worth anything. Unless I'm missing something about how these devices charge ect. This makes no sense.

The Tab uses more power to charge since tablets have bigger batteries or more batteries. Standard micro USB chargers are not built to draw in as much power as Tab chargers. It is all in how it's wired and the amount of teeth. Also my Tab uses its own wall adapter to draw in more power.
I was looking into that its the difference between a 5 or 11 pin micro usb connectors. I would assume, oh well I'm only out a few bucks for the two cables, now I need to fine an 11 pin one to keep in my car.

Note4 Quick charger on other devices

I've always used my note3 charger on my note 10.1 without issues and I'm very disappointed to see that the quick charger that comes with my note4 doesn't charge my note10.1!

No problems for me. I am using it to charge my Sony tablet-z with no problems.
Greetz
My Note 4 charger charges my Nexus 10 without issues.
The Note 4's charger works on my Note 10.1 2014 ed. It obviously doesn't fast charge my tablet though.
The charger is SUPPOSED to act as a 9V charger when connected to Fast Charge devices like the Note 4, but also act as a 5V charger for any other device. If the device can't use the full 5V (like a phone that only uses 2V or something), the device itself will only draw as much power as it can accept under 5V (2V for example).
If your charger isn't charging your Note 10.1, then the charger could be bad, or maybe even your tablet's charging port. If the tablet charges with other chargers, then I doubt it's the latter.

I also tested with different cables that I already verified that were good and a couple of different chargers for Power Delivery and Quick Charge and results were similar to the measurements above.

I noticed that Tab S6 did not complain about slow recharging when plugging in a Power Delivery port.
I took some measurements using a couple of meters I have.

I was actually curious about this subject. Thank you for sharing your findings. I am assuming the charges times shouldn't vary much.
Very curious if the 45 Watt charger from the Note10 will give a additional boost.
My Tab is currently on order, but it will take 1 or 2 weeks before it arrives.
I ordered the 256GB model, especially for the 8GB memory.

I just ordered one of these on a black friday sale. Did you ever find out if the 45W charger works faster?
No it does not make a difference.
Just a FYI...kinda related?
Without even thinking much about it I've been using the PD port (connected to original charger) on my USB-C to HDMI converter for several months. During usage, which consists of streaming live NFL games via the S6 and watching on my TV, the battery level decreases, albeit slowly, from 100% down to about 85% during a 3-3 1/2 hour session.
I assume this is to be expected, considering. Anyways, just some info for thought.
While fast charging is very convenient, it will affect the longevity of the battery if it's pushed too far.
I buy this one https://www.amazon.com/Vantec-USB-C-3-Port-Delivery-CB-CU301HSPD/dp/B07FQWV2YK but when running usb keyboard and mouse and hdmi i get a warning that battery is draining faster then it is charging and can see battery draining. If I use official samsung battery does not drain.
i know this thread is old, but exactly the issue i have was mentioned here.
i got a multiport adapter, so i can use hdmi and usb 3.0 ports on my tablet. it also came with an usb-c port for with PD 60w charging.
but when i plugged my original amsung charger to the multiport adapter thats connected to my tablet, it said its fullxy charged it 50h.... so.. is this totally normal its like that? the battery draining is faster than the charging. doesnt matter what i do, it is always the same: with the multiport adapter + original samsing chargwer it needs like 50h+ to be fully charged. is it the same for you guys, too? (when i dont use the adapter, my original samsiung charger charges full in 1h30min... that ocnfuses me totally)
can someone explain me in possibly easy words, why it is like that and why it is normal? (in case it actually is normal..) so basically, i would like to know if i should refund the adapter because its usb-c PD charging port is broken, or if this is totally normal behaviour with samsung mobile/tablet charger stuff?
EDIT: meassuring the electricity on my power socket, when i dont use the adapter, its charges with around 12W. but with the adapter it sinks to 1,5W. is that normal?
