[Q] Can I use this charger? - General Questions and Answers

Can I use an Apple iPad charger to charge my Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini (GT-I8190)?
Input: 100 - 240V ~ 0.5A (0,5A) 50 - 60 Hz
Output: 5.2V ⎓ 2.4A
It is a genuine charger and I tested it for a few seconds, it charges, but it takes a few seconds for the phone to say "Charging" from when I plug it in. Should I be concerned? Also the output voltage is 0.2V higher than the normal 5.0V USB charging voltage. I know the amperage doesn't matter, I'm just concerned about the voltage and the compatibility of this Apple charger.
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I use the same charger and i've been charging my Note 3 and Note 2 previously with it without any issues.

Thank you!
Thank you very much for your help!

Car charger rating?

I'm thinking of buying a car charger plug with a usb connection to use with the usb cabel that comes with the diamond.
What output rating should that car charger have?
The one I'm thinking of buying has a output of 5V and 1000mA. I've seen others with 500mA but not sure which one to get?
Does anybody have any idea?
Thanks /Sonny
All up to 2A should work! The charging process with 500mA could be slower. But they will all work!
Just calculate, the original battery has 3.7V with 900mA, that makes 3.33Wh.
So the charging process is never at full capacity for optimal charging of the battery.
With an output of 5V and 500mA the charging should last about an hour or 1 1/2 hours. So I think 1000mA should be more than enough.
Couldn´t find any hint on the original output current of the HTC charger, sorry.
Thanks for the quick reply!
I will go for the 1000mA then, same price anyway
Thanks!!
Just found this in the manual
AC Adapter Voltage range/frequency: 100 - 240V AC, 50/60 Hz
DC output: 5V and 1A

Does the Car Charger for TOUCH CRUISE DUAL fit in the Diamond as wel?
Same connector?

AC vox s710\s711

Hi, i have this smartphone, but i don't have a AC,
I charger only on USB Port, but any other ac usb type didn't work? i was thinking in AC charger Motorola V3 dc output 5v - 850mah
ac charger s710 = 5v 1A ?
works?
[]s
yes, the charger is 5 Volt - 1 Amper
Yes any generic usb charger with those specs should work fine 5V 1A
As far as I know, there are no USB chargers that go over 5V @ 1aH.
Anything that has a miniUSB end, you can plug in. One with lower amperage will just charge slower.
well maybe because USB specs from what I know deliver a max 500mA.
Btw I have a charger that delivers 5 V 2A but it has a standard jack...but with a solder you can put on it a mini USB plug so...
But more current you deliver on charge the more the battery drops his effeciency in time.
And ha4waii is right less current means slower charges.
But remeber the values of the current are peak values expressed in Amperes and not amperes per hour (it's not a battery it's a charger)
the current is a peak so it is not Ah it's a charger not a battery LoL
tanks for the help....
well, the ac from motorola v3, have mini-usb jack, but the specs.... dc Output -> 5V... 0,15A
i need a ac, anyone can send a acpower and battery to brazil???
in brazil ac power costs.... about Us $50 ...
Even a generic one????
it used to cost about 5-15 $

what language can use in your phone? i want a Spanish lastest ROM downloaded from HTC, regards!

Galaxy Relay Charger

I purchased a Galaxy S Relay, but it didn't come with the stock charger. Instead they included a generic charger that seems to output 500 ma. Anyone know what charger are compatible? I was thinking that we can charge faster with a higher power charger.
Paul
The stock charger puts out 1A (1000mA) at 5V so you probably could charge faster with a higher power charger

In Xiaomi mi 4 quick charge2.0 not enabled

Seems Qualcomm which charge 2.0 not working with Mi 4 original cable anyone suggest how enable fast charging on Xiaomi mi 4.
If I'm not mistaken, you need a charger with higher outputs then the standard wall charger shipped with most phones. Just a guess though seeing as my Xiaomi Mi 4 charger is a five volt charger.

My charger say Output 5v=2A/9v=1.2A/12v=1A i dont know if that whats needed but it charges very quickly.

5v is the voltage standard. What you want is AMPS. ALWAYS select 5 volts.
Computers (USB 2.0) can output maximum 0.5A (500ma) at 5 volts, while USB 3.0 can output 900ma or 0.9A.
Most MicroUSB chargers output anything from 1A to 3A+, with 1A and 2.1A being the most common.
So while a 1A will charge your phone a X percent per minute, a two amp charger will charge it at almost double the rate (not exactly, but close enough).
I do however (and I stand corrected), recommend not to go too high an amperage, while your phone my not get damaged, slow and steady charging is better for the battery than high current, quick charging.
Some phone, like my Galaxy S5, requires a 2A charger, but other phones may not like it.
I think it's always enable ...

Note Edge Fast Charge USB

Can we use this USB to fast charge our Note ?
Anker® 40W 5-Port Family-Sized Desktop USB Charger with PowerIQ™ Technology
Thanks
It's a charger that will charge fast simply because of the high amperage. I believe, and trust me I could be wrong, the fast charging capability has to do with the plug's output. Your typical outlet plug is 5v, anywhere from 500mah - 2.x amp. The higher the amps, the faster the charge. If you look at the fast charging plug, you'll notice it's 5v 2.1amp OR 9 volt 1.67 amp. I believe the ability to fast charger comes from the higher voltage capability. So while the 2.4amp charge rate is good and will charge fast, it's not the fast charging like using the higher voltage Samsung plug.
