Note4 Quick charger on other devices - Galaxy Note 4 Accessories

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!
When it's connected the red cross on the battery pops up (this usually happens when a low power charger is used)
Does this happen to you too or have I a broken charger?

No problems for me. I am using it to charge my Sony tablet-z with no problems.

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 get the same thing. I have a note 10.1 and using my note 4's adaptive charger with the note 10.1 charge cable I get the dreaded red x -- meaning super slow charge. All items are in perfect working order (doesn't happen with other 2 amp non-adaptive charging chargers).

So it's safe to charge my S4, Nexus 7 2012 and S2 with my Note 4 stock fast charger? I remember some guy making a thread that it fried his S4...I've been cautious ever since

Galaxy Note II and Galaxy Note 10.1 Chargers Interchangeable?

Hey guys,
I asked this question on the Note 2 forum, but maybe there aren't many users that have a note 2 and have a note 10.1; so I'm hoping that there are more users here that have a note 10 and also have the note 2 (does that make sense?)
The thread is about to jump to page 2, so I don't think I'm getting any hits there. Both chargers say that the output is 5V at around 2A.
No note 10.1 needs more power

They will, it just might take longer to charge is all... I use the same charger from my galaxy tab 7" (1st galaxy tab) and it works fine for my SGS3, note 1 and note 10.1...
Best idea is to try, You won't fry your note 10.1....
i know the gn2 charges fine on the gn10.1 charger with both fast and trickle. I'm pretty positive the gn2 charger would be fine on the gn10.1 since it's a 2A charger. i havent used the charger yet since ive got 2 other 2A samsung chargers.

Galaxy tab 7 charger is the same as. Note 10.1 but galaxy note 2 charger gives less power and you will find a red cross on the battery icon when you charge with it (it will actually charge but it may take all the day to charge it)
Sent from my X10S using xda app-developers app
As I said, might take longer... Just like when you attach to a USB on your PC... It will charge but a lot slower....
Still a good idea if you need to keep a charger at home and one at work as it's better than not having a second charger at all... Though it's just as easy to attach to a PC...
unless the gn2 is wired differetly than every other samsung device there shouldn't be any difference in charge times as both use 5V 2A chargers im over 90% so i can test fast charge yet. hooking it up does not show the not charging icon so I'd assume it's not trickling. I've read that non samsug chargers charge under 400mA. the gn2 is charging currently at 507mA. I'll have to wait a few hours or tomorrow to see if it fast charges, which im sure it will
confirmed the both work equally. both charge up to 1.5A. i dont see any record of the gn10.1 charger ever going higher than 1.536A.
Well, this clarifies things. I was just wondering as the Note 2's charger is almost half the size of the note 10's. Maybe the size is just an updated design...
At least now I can have one of the device's charger at home and the other at work and not worrying in frying one the device by not using the proper charger.
I want to order the desktop charger for the note 2 and I think that comes with its own charger head....

I answered in the Note 2 forum with:
I have both and was interested in the question as well (do I need to carry both with me or will I have one in my travel bag and one @home).
I checked both and both are rated @2A so their capacaty is the same.
The note 10.1 shows only a 'red cross' in charging on the PC or on a charger from old Galaxy S2.
Now, plugged to the charget from Note II it works with same current than on original charger
Now I plugged the Note 2 into the Note 10.1 charger, and it's charging with same 1.8A as with original charger!
So from my side it's clear, they are interchangeable
I will use the Note 10.1 for home and the Note 2 charger for travel Old charger stays @ home, could make only 900mA...
P.s.: I checked charger currents by reading /sys/class/power_supply/battery/current_now with root explorer.

Interesting, I have the Note 10.1 and the original charger with the original cable only gets me about 1180.

Yes, the reading on 10.1 depends a lot on other topics like loading % and how much energy just used by the tab. Don't ask me why!

The supplied charger on my Note 10.1 takes about 12 hours to full charge my tablet. Is there ANY WAY to charge it faster without burning it out or, is this just the lay of the land?

That doesn't look right. I can charge mine in 3hr fully. Have it checked or try another charger from another 10.1 user.

Are you still using it when you charge it? Mine also takes about 3-4 hours to charge
I have them both and chargers habe the same specs. 2A and 5V so I dont see or experience any problems.

Cannot charge with powerbank .

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

What amp charger does the Note 4 have?

Is it 2a?
I pre-ordered it and wish to have backup wall/car chargers ready to go for next week.
Tnx
It's a 2A Quickcharge 1.0 unit. Quickcharge boosts the voltage (to ~9v from 5v) when the phone is less than 50%, so you can't get just ANY 2 amp charger and expect it to work as quickly.
If you care (or are willing to wait) Quickcharge 2.0 wall plugs should ship in ~2 months. That boosts the input to 15 volts (IIRC) and will supposedly charge from 0% to 100% in about 45 minutes.
yeah I guess I can wait. I can always keep an old 1a plug by the bed for long overnight charges.
Does samsung sell oem chargers at release date?
9V 1.67A and 5V 2A is what it says on the charger
9V 1.67A is the rapid charging part
it's a dual voltage charger. 5v @ 2.0A and 9v @ 1.67A
For some unknown reason, I have a 2.1 amp car charger and cheap 1 amp ac charger. My HTC One M7 charge slow but the Note 4 charge much faster using the same charging device. I dont know what it is, but I like it!
So the charger on Samsung's website is not the same one that came with the Note 4?

Not sure it has anything to do with the Fast Charging hardware. The Fast Charging works with the provided charger, which is a dual voltage one. I used my iPhone's/iPad's car charger with my Note 4 and didn't notice a speed-up in charging time.
On a tangential note: I can't find anyone who sells the Note's fast charger separately yet and I needed another one for use with the Note 4 at the office. So I used the Asus charger that came with my original 3G Nexus 7 (which remains forgotten on a shelf). It works pretty well. I noticed that the Asus charger charged all my handsets (HTC One M8, Nexus 5, Z2, Oppo Find 7) pretty reliably -- the M8 and Nexus 5 seemed to charge faster compared with their stock chargers.
Anyone who's held the Asus charger knows it's a little bit bulkier and a few ounces weightier than the usual chargers that come with smartphones these days so there may be a hardware component to it. Whatever it is, it's probably the best standalone charger I've had the cables connect via a USB port so you can use it with your iPhone too.
If you can find at a garage sale or some random tech shop, you should pick one up. Works great with everything.

Note 5 charger doesn't work well with Tab S

I have both the Note 5 and the Tab S 10.5. I usually keep the Note's charger in the living room and use it for either the Tab S or the Note if I need quick top off. The Tab S' charger is upstairs for overnight charging. With the Note 4's charger (my previous phone) both devices charged fine. I've noticed that since switching to the Note 5, its charger does not charge the Tab S very well. With screen on it actually looses % rather than gains it and with the screen off charging is extremely slow. Using it's own charger the Tab S charges at its normal rate. The Note 5 also quick charges fine on its own charger.
Just an odd thing I thought I would mention. Has anyone else tried using the Note 5's charger on a different device?

Anyone tried using their samsung 2.0 amp charger?

Plugged my phone into a 2.0 charger from either b my s4 mini or my n3 before going to bed, woke up and phone wasnt fully charged. Didn't think anything of it, just went on my way. Now my phone just died completely went to use that same charger and didn't charge.
Downloaded a galaxy battery current charging app and it shows negative amperage when plugged into 2a charger. Also with the screen off it only shows one green dot instead of the trail leading to the battery.
Sounds like your 2 amp cable was defective. I've plugged mine into a 2 amp and it just takes a lot longer to charge
I thought so too, so I used the brand new cable that came with the n5, same result.
If the other cable was defective it could of damaged your usb port possibly. I use a 2 amp in my car sometimes then my 5 amp at home no ill effects
I use my note 3 charger every night because ive always heard a slower charge is better for battery longevity. I have had absolutely no problems and wake up with a full charge after a average 5 hour sleep every morning. I only use my note 5 charger for quick fill ups during the day. Im guessing your wall wart is bad. Try the 2amp cable on the note 5 charger then U will know its not the cable

Same, no problems with the 2 amp here.
