As we know the original N5 charger is 5v 1.2A, so can I use Galaxy Nexus charger which is 5v 1.0A will it damage my phone or any other problem
sry my poor english
Yes should be fine

It is the phone that decides how much current to use, not the charger. A charger can limit the phone only if it is not able to supply enough current. If the phone is capable of charging at 1A, a 10A charger will only deliver 1A. The current ratings on chargers are for MAX current the charger is capable of.

I have both a Nexus One and a Kindle Fire. Both devices use Micro USB for charging and I'm currently using the wall chargers that have come with each respective device. The Nexus One's charger has an output of 5V, 1.0A. The Kindle Fire's charger has an output of 5V, 1.8A. Is it safe to mix and match these device's chargers? The higher current rating of the Kindle Fire's charger won't kill the Nexus One, will it? Furthermore, I've been looking into a single charger that will be able to charge both devices. I've been looking into a charger that has a 5V, 2.0A output. Will this charger be safe for both devices?
Thanks.
I have used my HP Touchpad's charger which is 5V 2A output on my phone and it charges it just fine without damaging it. I think the phones regulate the charge going into them and it doesn't actually take in the full 2A.
Being an Electronics Engineer i can confirm, It is safe to use, . the current consumption within the amp ratings (max it can supply) of charger is the basic funda.and you can connect if you have 10A rating charger too..but remember the voltage should be 5V only. its must
I concur, don't wanna let the magic blue smoke out:-o
P.S. get a wall charger, they're grrreat!
Thanks everybody!
Hello,
my battery charger stopped working and i need a new one. I read a few review and i'm a bit confuesd, not every chargers with the capability to deliver 1000mAh works with every device. So which one oft them works with the desire s and delivers 1000mAh and not just 500mAh?
just buy a oem wall charger ,, easily found on ebay and also cheap
does it has any difference between 1000 and 500mah chargers? now i'm using original liveview charger with 500mah on it but also have 1A iPhone charger.

I also have a 1A charger (coming from a SGS3), but I haven't had any problem

Overheating
im using an old S2 charger i think, its got an output of 5V, 0.7 amps and after flashing a costom rom, jellyfirebean im getting serious overheating issues, but only while charging with the phone on.
however i cant confirm this is the chargers problem yet
just a note, its the phone that heats up not the charger

no the phone never heats up using original wall charger

Double that. Overheating can be only caused by the phone itself, or a defected battery (means it is near death, but for serius heating, you will notice like 1hrs of battery life for the phone).
On another note for the topic. I use 3 type of chargers for my phones:
At home my ASUS tab's one (which is rated 5V 1A at the standard USB, plus the extra for the dock, but it is ASUS specific), at work an old ZTE "dumbphone" charger (which is rated 5V 0.75A, and is a high frequency switching type, so really energy-efficient) and for any other my old SE X8's one, which is 5V 650mA (which is also switching type). Also dedicated charger cables, 1 nokia, 1 SE, 1 HTC and 1 ZTE at my car.
The phone's original 5V 1A is NRFB at the box of the phone, but I have a security backup Samsung charger (rated 5V 500mA and pass-trough type, so not really efficient, but stable) which works just fine. The S is not capable (or not enabled just yet) of fast charge mode AFAIK so no really chance for 500mA or more when charging (even when GPS and 3G on, and screen on max, which is aroung 430mA when I last measued it with a service cable).
reporting back
yeah i can confirm it was the 2 year old htc battery
i am now using 2 anker 1600mah batterys and they last a LOT longer + come with an enternal charger so i always have one charged, it also charges the old htc battery too externally so i can now use 3 battieries mwahahahaa
note i did have to delete battery stats in cwm to recalibrate
I was wondering if this car charger was safe to use on my Blaze (a Scosche 2 USB port charger). The info on it says:
input: 12-24vdc, 1.5a
output: 5v, 2a RoHS
(made in chine etc).
I have heard conflicting opinions about the use of third party devices for charging. Most notably, the T-mobile chat reps say they
"do not recommend" using them, but the ones on their very own website are mostly third party ones (at least they appear to be to me).
I have also heard that as long is the plug fits on the phone correctly it is safe.
Could someone clear this up for me? Will the scosch work and be safe? Or, could you recommend one that is safe to use on my blaze?
Thank you so much!
That will work perfectly fine. 5v and any amperage will be acceptable. The stock charger is good for 1A, so charging on a lower amperage charger will only increase the charging time.
I believe the Blaze will only pull around 1A max when charging, although a kernel tweak should be able to unlock fast charging in the future, if it already hasn't.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, it was the 2A output that concerned me after doing some reading. Can anyone confirm what the max amperage the Blaze will allow? I just want to be sure that 2A will not be a problem.
NOTE: It charged my old Iphone 3GS fine.
The charger does not "push" 2A to the phone, the phone draws as many amps from the charger as it can provide. The 2A rating just means that it will be able to quickly charge a device that needs that amount of power, like an iPad. Most phones will draw between 500ma (.5A) and 1A.

its kinda like bandwidth... the charger doesnt push 2A, the charger's bottleneck is 2A. If the phone charges at 1A, only 1A will be going through the charger regardless of the charger's 2A limitation.
At least that's how i think it is... its been a long time since my Electrical Engineering portion of Intro to Industrial Maintenance in highschool....
The specs of a charger that is good to charge a Moto G are 5.0V, 500-1500mA. In my house I have many microusb chargers (5V 1A, 5V 550mA, 5V 700mA) and I charge my phone once with a charger once with another one. Should I use always the same charger or is it indifferent if I use one or another (all the chargers are within Motorola's guidelines)?

It doesn't make any difference your phone will take as much or as little as it needs.
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.
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 ...
