So i have a spare battery for my Galaxy note edge. When i put my spare battery to charge on my battery charger dock it only charges the batteries up to 90-95%... i have tried this with 4 different batteries. But when i charge those batteries with my phone they charge all the way to 100%.
Is there any reason behind this? Anyone knows? Do you think i should stop using that battery charger?

I think Soup is referring to the samsung spare battery charger that comes with the spare battery.
If so, you are not able to.... Not the one from samsung at least.
If you don't want the extra battery you can get the battery chargers by themselves for cheap on ebay...

alright thanks neon, perhaps that is what i'll do
I've purchased two 3500mah batteries off ebay and would like to have some sort of dock charger so I can just charge one of the batteries while my phone is using the other one. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thanks.
Did u try wirelessground.com?

Yea, but I'm only seeing a dock charger for the phone itself. I need one for a 3500mah battery.
check this out
http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=224072509&sellerid=16060654
and it has a slot for a 2nd battery...sooo cool
I bought a 3500mAH battery and external battery charger from Amazon. The external charger plugs into 120VAC, has a 5V USB output and a charge indicator which indicates when the battery is fully charged.
Here's Amazon.com pages for just the charger:
http://www.amazon.com/LG-Battery-Ch...B8/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1324233294&sr=8-16
http://www.amazon.com/Battery-Deskt...QF2G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1324233626&sr=8-2
I never charge my phone anymore, just switch out batteries using external charger
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Have to make sure you get a charger that takes the battery right0side up (same way it goes into the phone)... On my Vibrant, I had the official Samsung spare battery charger, and it took the battery upside down. Which meant that the contacts on any extended battery wouldn't match up as the battery is too thick.
EDIT: Oh yeah, this might should be in the accessories forum....

I would charge it first time with the phone off, and then wipe battery stats to be on the safe side.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
perhaps it has to do with the fact that the battery norm voltage is 3.7 instead of 3.8. full charge voltage will also vary too. Anandtech did an article on one of motorola phones.
hyperion batteries also has a integrated chip that prevents overcharging beyond 4.2v (which is 100% for 3.7v batteries), 3.8v batteries have higher full charge voltage. 4.35v i believe.
Mine charges 100%. I did charge it the first time with the phone off, but I don't know if that matters or not.
I love that battery with the Hyperion extended case.
I have had and used this on my Droid Turbo, worked great thought I would have no problem using it with my Pure Edition.
http://www.amazon.com/Qualcomm-Cert...400mAh+Portable+External+Battery+Fast+Charger
Now that I have the Moto X Pure I plug it in and it shuts off about 10 seconds after. anyone else have this problem?
EDIT: thats weird seems to be fine now. Wish i could remember what i did to fix it. I was messing with this way and that.
Nope still not working with my Moto X Pure Edition.
Will see if they replace it.
It works with other Quick charge phones like Nexus 6 but shuts its self off about 10sec after turning it on in the Moto X Pure.
I see a few of you purchased this item does it work for anyone else?
They must have changed something on the charging port. I have the nexus 6 too.
I have Android auto, the cord that works for my nexus 6 doesn't work on the moto x. It will flash the debug icon then shut off repeatedly.
But the turbo charger cord from the nexus 6 charger does work.
I know kinda off topic, but I think it is a similar issue.

Other than the Moto X issues, is this a good quality item? It looks like it's made of metal, is that so?
Wait...is this a moto x cable issue or a moto x issue?

This is a 2015 Moto X issue. I have seen other threads in other forums posting this problem (not just me). I did try different cable and same result. I think it because of the wattage.
I email Aunkey about this and no response yet (been 1 day)
This worked very well for my Droid Turbo and yes its metal
Hi Jerry,
Thanks for contacting us.
Because we have no this phone to have a test, and we can not figure out if this phone is incompatible with this item. So we can only give you a full refund for this item. We are afraid a replacement can not solve this problem..So please feel free to tell us if it is acceptable to you.
Waiting for your reply.
Lyn
They offered a refund. I'll take it
I instead ordered this : http://smile.amazon.com/Quick-Charg...?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1442498147&sr=1-22
Will get it tomorow and report back if it works
Okay so I got the Anker Power Core 10050 battery pack quick charge from Amazon today. I opened up the package and plug the battery pack in the phone, it started charging right away for about 20 seconds and then shut off. I unplugged the battery pack and plugged it back in the phone had no idea it was plugged in and ready to be charged, so I pushed the button on the battery pack and it charged for about 30 seconds and shut off. I grabbed a battery pack that is not quick charge and plugged it into my phone and it was fine continue to charge. I plugged back in the quick charge battery pack and it continued to charge for about 15 minutes I looked over and it was shut off again. started the battery pack again went and took a shower and now it's still going looks like it'll make 100% from 60%.
I would challenge anybody that has this battery pack or the other battery pack to try and plug it in from at least 30% battery and let the thread know that its ok or you're having the same issue.
Just curious...what kinds of cables are you guys using? I'm guessing the Pure is sensitive to quality cables since the stock charger is attached.

I had the exact same issue with both the anker cable and another one. Something is wrong. Called anker and they had no clue and suggested it might be a bad unit. I returned it but looking for something else until anker figures it out.

Do any of you have the older Anker or other external battery packs where it charges? the Anker IQ is suppose to charge the phone at its highest speed. I have two of these and wonder if I would have issues with these or if its just a Quick Charge issue.
With the Anker IQ, charging my LG G3 is pretty quick. Quicker than using the wall unit.
I think it's just a quick charge issue. The battery quick chargers are useless for the pure since they shut off weather you want it to turbo charge of not, you get nothing, no charge

For those who are having issues with the Aukey/Anker Quick Charge battery packs, might as well just get the IQ which seems to charge just as fast and with no issues.

Here is all the Anker battery packs - http://amzn.to/1gACOEs
I have two of these - http://amzn.to/1MiGB50
All the basic Anker battery packs come with IQ charging which adjusts the charging speed based on how fast the device can charge. I use it to charge my LG G3, iPad Mini and Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10". Has no problem charging one or all 3 devices at the same time.
BTW, you'll need a wall charger to help charge the Anker at a decent speed - http://amzn.to/1YnYYMj

I have a Samsung wireless fast charging pad I bought for my S7. Is there any difference in the charging speed between it and the latest dock style ones?
Nope
Sent from my Pixel XL using XDA-Developers Legacy app
Maybe you know. I was told that using non-original wireless charging is bad because they spoil the battery. Is it so?
Generic wireless chargers do not fast charge in my experience. I have tried 3 off of Amazon so far.
I have a Seneo Fast Charger stand and its been great .
As long as the wireless dock is Fast Charge capable and your adapter is QuickCharge 2.0 compliant it should work. I have four Seneo Fast Charge docks that I use with both Samsung and RavPower QC 2.0 adapters and they work great with my S7 Edge. I will test when I get it but I'd assume the S8+ will work the same.
You know if it is working because the phone displays two messages when you dock it.
"Charging wirelessly xx%"
and then after a second or two
"Fast charging wirelessly xx%"

I believe the S8 (like the S7) can accept up to 15w wireless charging (Qi 2.0 spec) but most chargers barely output 10w. Not sure why but I would be looking for a good 15w output charger unless theres a reason not to.

What does "spoil the battery" even mean?

I think the reference is to batteries losing capacity. The older a battery is the less capacity it holds. A battery rated at 3600mAH might only hold 2000mAH after a couple of years of use. High charging current causes a lot of heat buildup in the battery and will shorten (spoil) it's life.
Best way to tell if your battery has lost capacity is to measure charge time. Having it die quickly could mean it's just running too many apps, but charging time (with the phone off) should give an indication of battery capacity. If your battery charges twice as fast as a new one, it's lost half its capacity.

Got it. Sorry, I actually thought they meant that the battery spoils. Like the way some "normal" batteries blow up if left in devices for too long. I was seeing memories of the S7 nightmare.
AFAIK, the only listed change between the Dock style Samsung Fast charger and the Convertible Fast charger is that the new 1 can be changed from dock to pad.
I just picked up 2x Dock styles from amazon for 40 bucks a piece, way better than spending 70 for the convertible style.
Or these?

I was amazed how quickly they showed up too. Took 3 days from order to delivery. I think they purposely put almost 2 weeks delivery time just so that when you get it "early" you're amazed.

Means that the battery holds its charge less. Faster discharges, in general the life of the battery decreases
If you use Qi wireless charger, it has 1.4x faster than traditional wireless charger. Built-in 2 coils offer a wide charging area, which allows you to place your device in either portrait or landscape position. You can also continue using it to read, watch or type while the battery is being replenished.
