I saw that there's a new charger called "Adaptive Fast Charge". This charger came originally to Note 4 and S5(I think). I don't know, if S5 had that charger on packaging, but I know that it can use Fast Charge charger too. So, what about S5 mini? Does it support this charger and feature?
Reserved!
I think there would be no difference in charging velocity, because s5mini doesn't support adaptive fast charge.
I used fast charger on my G800F
It works! Charges very fast

Hi,
Has anyone tried to charge the Note 3 with a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 charger and does it charge significantly faster?
The reason I ask is that our phone's processor, Snapdragon 800, is listed as supporting Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0:
https://www.qualcomm.com/products/snapdragon/processors/800
The technology works by ramping up the charging voltage when the battery is low, and slowly reducing voltage as the battery fills up.
This is exactly the same technology which the Note 4 uses and dubs "Adaptive Fast Charging".
The latest Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 chargers charge at:
12V * 1.5A = 18W
9V * 2A = 18W
5V * 2A = 10W
(voltage is reduced as battery charges up).
You can see the voltage/amperage of the charger written somewhere on the charger.
Chargers that are 5V/2A only (e.g. stock charger) are not quick charge 2.0.
This is not to be confused with USB 3.0 charging (which is only ~5V * 1A = 5W from PC), or 2A chargers (5V * 2A = 10W from 0 to 100%).
Our Note 3's chipset supports this, but it won't be very surprising if Samsung disables this on the firmware or kernel level.
If anyone has tried charging the Note 3 with a QC 2.0 charger, your input is much appreciated!
I haven't used that charger, but I've been charging at nothing but 2A for quite some time (via kernel settings). It seems like it charges up pretty damn fast, and I haven't noticed any ill-effects from it....
Note 4 charged with quick charge, discharges faster too, so I think it's useless if the battery life decreases.
Maybe it's a problem of the note 4, but I don't think so.

It charges at double speed at <80% (or similar, varies depending on when it throttles to 5W/2A).
Essentially, you can charge up to 60-80% within half hour, as advertised by Qualcomm.
That's extremely useful if you simply want to add 30% to your battery life with 15 minutes of charging before leaving the house, etc.
The difference is more obvious with half hour: 50-60% charge versus 20-30%.
Hi, to which kernel are you referring to old ? Some chancethat it is vcompatible with stock Lollipop ? Thanks
Checked with a multimeter, maximum I can reach is 5V on a Note 4 charger even I am charging from 10% and screen off
Samsung disabled this. Didn't try on 5.0 anyway.

To my knowledge, the Note 4 charger is not a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 charger.
It is a Samsung-proprietary variant for the Note 4 only, and unlike other QC 2.0 chargers only toggles between 5/9V instead of 5/9/12V.
Note 4 however does support the Quick Charge 2.0 standard as well.
Please do correct me if I'm mistaken.

Yep, but the Note 4 charger's adaptive charging is proprietary and restricted to Samsung's Note 4 - it's not a Quick Charge 2.0 charger AFAIK.
Anyone actually tried charging the Note 3 with a Quick Charge 2.0 charger?
e.g. http://www.amazon.com/Tenergy-Unive...d=1421031846&sr=8-1&keywords=quick+charge+2.0
No, but a friend in work has a note 4, I will test tomorrow an post back.
Any specifics you want testing, results with various apps etc?
I don't think so that is supported, but some1 got to try it...

Fast Adaptive charger comes with galaxy s6 i tried this charger on my note 3 but fast charging is not work on note 3 and this charger is intelligent itself to deliver required amount of current to mobile my phone charged simple on 1200mAh to 1800mAh regular current delivered to Note 3 by Fast Adaptive charger when i put it on s6 it automatically detect it and on fast adaptive chrging it gives 9V ,1.97A to maintain high speed charging but not on Note 3
boomWow!
Years later, I've tried my Nexus 6's FastCharge 2.0 AC adapter and it charges significantly faster.
Doesn't charge any faster on stock firmware, checked using ampere , charges at the normal 1200mah with screen on which I believe is the max with the screen on surely there is someway to unlock it
yes it supports you can buy Tech Sense Lab 3.4 Amp Dual USB Car Charger
The ampere app shows my Note 3 charge at a 1.8A from normal 1.2A steady flow, this is with Qualcomm 2.0 QCharge... It is probably the max rate for the device.. It is fast, especially within the lower band of the battery capacity.
With Qualcomm QuickCharge 2.0 the voltage does not ramp down, only the current does. The whole point of QC is to overcome the resistance inherent in many micro-USB cables, and that's done by boosting the voltage. My Note 4 charges at 5V/1.7(ish) amps on a non-QC charger, and 9.4V at the same current on a QC 2.0 charger, and that voltage is maintained throughout the charge with the current ramping down.
My girlfriend's Note 3 does not charge at increased voltage on my QC 2.0 charger. It just does 5V charging.
Measurements were made at the output of the charger with a USB digital multimeter.

I haven't had any problems with battery life on my Note 4, and I quick charge mine frequently. Must be a problem with YOUR Note 4.
My adapter is 9v 2a and i can say it charger significately faster. Alot faster.
Stock charger takes anywhere between 3-6 hours where as mine takes 2-3 hours max.
I have got a replacement battery(chinese one) but is equivalent to the stock samsung battery.
Also i am using a ported rom from the s7 edge so fast charging could possibly be enabled within the kernel especially if the cpu supports it

Any suggestions? I'm looking for something that can do the quick charging in the car, is that even possible? Can it be done with a dual port so my wife and I can use the quick charger at the same time?
http://www.amazon.com/Charger-PowerIQ-Technology-Samsung-Motorola/dp/B00M43S18Y/ - Would this one support quick charging in the car?
Also,
http://www.amazon.com/Anker®-Extra-Premium-Android-Samsung/dp/B00NPP7TVU
This is basically the same cable that came with my S6 just longer correct? The included cable is too short to plug in near my night stand.
Any charger that is a 2amp charger... and any cable.. i have tried all my old cables on the s6 charger... all allow fast charge... and its charger is 2amp.... same as nexus 7 and all other newer devices... so just go with a 2 amp charger and enjoy the fast charge. And yes they make dual port 2 amp chargers... usually 1 port is 2 amp and second one is like 1 or 1.4amp... i have 2 cheap ones from amazon myself... will test them with the phone tomorrow and update you.

any cable will work, but not every 2.0A charger will work. i tested it with a 2.0A (not the Samsung one) charger and "fast charging" did not show up in the phone.
AFAIK, you have to use one of Samsung's OEM chargers or one capable of the Quick Charge 2.0 standard for adaptive fast charging.
OP, i only did a cursory search, but i found this dual Quick Charge 2.0 charger that might meet your needs: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00TGD79X8?psc=1
Interesting, I didn't think to check for QC 2.0. I was thinking the Anker one did that. Thanks!
That being said though, anyone have experience with any of them with how they hold up?
Verizon sells one, it is their generic branding, it's the only one that I have seen or tried that is marketed that it is QC 2.0, works great even has a built in LED flash light basically. Sucks that it is $34.99 though.

From my understanding Quick Charge 2.0 is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 (or newer) processor feature. The Galaxy S6 is running Samsung's Exynos 7420 processor which features Adaptive Fast Charging. I don't know how they vary in terms of performance, but I do know that when I plug in my Quick Charge 2.0, my S6 recognizes it as a fast charger. Battery went from 40% to 63% in 13 mins so I'm assuming both charging standards are compatible lol..
Try this car charger, worked great for my Qualcomm based phones.

i'm reasonably sure it's the same standard. the Note 4 (Snapdragon 805) is listed on Qualcolm's website as compatible with QC 2.0. however, if you look at Samsung's website, it only lists Adaptive Fast Charging. Samsung just rebranded QC 2.0 as their own Adaptive Fast Charging. you can use all devices interchangeably.
also, the OP wanted a dual port QC 2.0 charger. that one only has 1 port w/ QC 2.0
I have already Anker 2 amp car charger in hand and i was thinking it wont be fast enough , i have seen video where quaclom demonstrated that Quick charging is faster than 2 amps charging , and judging by the fact that Samsung is providing comparable charging time with stock charger i was thinking that it is more than 5V 2.0 Amps .. too bad i am waiting for my phone to arrive.

Yep. Your right sir. Just tried all my 2.0 / 2.1 amp chargers... not quick charging... guess ill grab some qc 2.0 amp chargers from amazon for car and backups.

This is the one I was looking at, thanks!
I've been researching for an external battery as of late because I am about to travel overseas to Germany. Looking for a solution to last 18 hrs a day with my Samsung Galaxy S6.
Currently my average is 10% per Hour with low to medium use with Stock Touchwiz.
To my surprise, there was very low support for "Adaptive Fast Charging" technology...
I haven't found a product that directly says Yes this works with Adaptive Fast Charging from Samsung.
I've only found vague products like this:
Portable Charger External Battery Power Bank Fast Charger by basacc (from Amazon)
This accepts Qualcomm's QuickCharge 2.0 Technology... and since the S6 doesn't use Qualcomm CPU I imagine there maybe compatibility issues?
In short, does anyone know of any external battery that can work with Samsung Adapative Fast Charging?
Any Quick Charge 2.0 charger will fast charge the S6 as "Adaptive Fast Charging" is based off Qualcomm's "Quick Charge 2.0".

I just bought a Samsung Galaxy A50 that does 15W fast charging
Does anyone know if my 18W Quick Charge chargers that came with my LG G5 will work to fast charge the Samsung device?
I'm sure they will charge it at normal charge speeds. Just wondering if they will work for fast charging or if I'd need new chargers.
I got lost trying to sort out Quick Charging vs Fast Charge and 15W vs 18W and my brain hurts
I have a note 20u 5g SM-N9860. While tinkering with charging options, I turned on Fast charging and disabled other options. However, when I connect stock charger and cable, it stays on CABLE CHARGING. When I turn on Super Fast Charging, it charges in Super Fast Charging mode.
Is anyone having this problem of not getting Fast Charging mode to work?
I think it depends on the charger. I don't think a super fast charger will just do fast charging. Super fast or just regular. At least that's been my experience.
Using my pixel chargers on the note it does just do fast charging, because that's all the charger is capable of.
There is an option to enable fast charging. There are two different options for fast charging and Super fast charging. Most probably that option is turned off. It is off by default.
I've experienced the same thing. You need to understand electrical currents and how the plug you putting your adaptor inside. To make it simple, use a charger that has usb a to usb c (old ones) for fast charging (samsung branded in my experience). This phone was designed to handle super fast charging anyway, why not use it?
None of the charge options make any sense to me on the N20U. Example , using an old samsung 18W brick charger. On slow charging it peaks to over 2000mA or over , on fast charging it peaks to around 2800mA. Using Accubattery to see value whilst charging. Using a 10W apple brick charger it charges are around 1000mA however.
This behavior was present across three different N20U devices.
Easiest way is to look at the charge indicator.
Around 1% a minute is snail charging.
Around 2% a minute is fast charging.
