Hello all !
I have a question regarding the charger to use with the S5. I forgot mine at work today and it happens that i have a charger for my Galaxy Tab 3 at home.
They look the same but have different specs.
S5 charger :
Output : 5.3V 2.0A
Galaxy Tab Charger :
Output : 5v 2.0A
Is it okay to use the Tab charger ? It won't damage the S5 ?
Sorry for the "stupid" question but i'm not too good with these things
Thank you very much
It should be fine. Especially since the Output is lower. It might just take a bit longer to charge. Also for future reference so as to avoid the possibility of getting flamed . You should post questions in the Q/A Help Forum Section .
Ok thank you
Any usb micro have to work. That's the main benefit of a Standard cable. You have the difference between charging only cable and full data cable but that's irrelevant, any cable will work.

On another Note 10.1 forum I am reading that only Samsung branded tablet chargers will work with the Note 10.1. Is this true? There are many 5v 2.1 amp chargers that should provide the Note 10.1 the current to charge - particularly if the cable is a Note cable. If the Note is plugged into a PC it will charge - and that is a standard USB port that is the same as most USB chargers.
I would like a spare charger to keep in another location. $50 to Samsung for a second charger is ridiculous. It would also be nice to have a car charger. What is out there that will charge the Note 10.1?
I was posting this on the Note 10.1 Accessories sub-forum but got a message telling me that since this is a question it needs to be posted here.

Question 1: Will stock Samsung Galaxy S3 charger fit note 8.0? I'd like to save some room in my bag and don't want to carry two chargers with me. Specifications and sizes of chargers for GS3 and Note 8 are a bit different. Will it damage the tab or is it just going to charge slower?
Additional question if answer to Q 1 is negative: can I use stock usb cable from GS3 with the charger from Note 8? Not having to carry two usb cables could save some room as well Sorry for lame questions, but I'm not a technician.
Yes I use the S3 charger in the UK

Yes will fit, but it will charges slowly becouse it has just 1.0 Amp output and tje note 8.0 charger has 2.0 Amps. I've tried it and it's charging really slowly.

Try using the note charger for the s3.

This. The S3 will "limit" the charging rate to 1 amp instead of the 2 amps it delivers to the Note 8.
Thank you for all replies. Now I know I don't have to carry two chargers with me As for me, this topic can be closed.

s3 charger is at 1amps
while galaxy note 8 is 2 amps
so yes you can charge, but at a MUCH SLOWER rate
hi guys im having trouble for finding a charge that can charge my samsung galaxy tab 2 7.0 (not the actual charger just the power cord) is there a phone or another tablet or an ios device that can charge my tablet? PLEASE HELP ASAP :crying::crying::crying:
Hi, thank you for using XDA Assist. In general any micro usb charger will work for your device. The devices circuitry limits the charging rate so you don't have to worry about a charger putting out too much current. In fact, the opposite is true. You'll want a charger that's capable of putting out as much or more current than your device requires or your charging rate will be slow.

I have an I9500 s4. Rooted with pacman rom [5.0.1]. When i am plugging into an ac charger its very slow and also draining if used while charging. So i used ktweaks to try and enable fast charge and the charging current is 500 amp (and sometimes drops to 300amp). I think the problem is that my AC adapter is being recognised as a usb port. My charger is 2amp and i have used it before and had no such problem [before custom rom]. So is there anyway to increase the charging current.
Screenshot of ktweaker attached.

Hello XDA. I recently bought a long charger for my nexus 6p however it didn't charge as fast as the original wire. I'm looking for a new charger and a wire of at least 3m that'll charge at a fast rate like the stock or faster will be better.
There's a sticky in the accessories thread that covers this but decided to help you anyway... also only a bad USB cable might charge slow. usb stock charger and stock cable you'll be fine but if you still want a long one, check below.
Benson Lueng reviews a bunch of USB Type C chargers, pick any of the chargers that are highly rated :good:
Same prob . Refresh link if possible or if u can be arsed . Would be appreciated
