Fast charger included? UK

Hi, did anyone with a UK spec galaxy S6 get a fast charger included with the phone? I keep reading that the fast charger is included but mine only came with a normal one (EP-TA10UWE not EP-TA20UWE). If you did please state if it was a standard S6 or and S6 Edge. Thank you

Mines still in the box I'll take a look later lol

My 32gb S6 came with the fast charger, has adaptive fast charging written on it

I got the fast charger with mine. But using a generic 2a charger and wireless charging pad.

Adaptive fast charger is included on all S6.

UK here, fast charger included.

Hey i recently bought an S6 and have the same problem. Do you think this is a manufacturer's fault? Have you sorted it out? Thanks.

Samsung Galaxy S6 fast charging with Desktop Dock EDD-D200BE

Hello,
This is my first post on XDA. So I hope I my question has'nt been posted already...
I have a Samsung S6 with the original fast charger.
I still own a Desktop dock from my Samsung Galaxy S3.
Question 1 :
Can I use this desktop dock, with the original charger included with that dock, to charge my Samsung S6 ?
Question 2 :
Can I use this desktop dock, with the fast charger included with my S6, to charge my Samsung S6 ?
Thanks in advance...

I believe that the answer to both is yes, but I'm not familiar with the S3 dock.

In the mean time, I tried the option in question 1 : it works !
But I'am hesitating to try the option in question 2 :
the dock has an output of 1.0 A
the output of the fast charger is 2.0 A (I think ?)

The amperage on a charger is just the max it can output. The device itself will determine how many amps to pull.

Am I correct that the dock will only give an output of 1.0 A even if I connect it to a fast charger (2.0 A)?
So fast charger + dock is no fast charging the Samsung Galaxy s6?!

Yes. I have a Note 4 that I use with my S3 dock and even with the OEM fast charge adapter I only get a normal charge. It's fine for me since I use it at night and that's plenty of time to charge my phone.
I'm glad to hear it works with the S6 since my wife has the S3 and the dock and she will be upgrading to the S6 in a few weeks.

I have tested both situations. They both work but no fast charging. Only "normal" charging.
Thanks to everyone for there help!

Best fast wireless charger?

Wanted to get Samsung Fast wireless charger on ebay but after watching this video https://youtu.be/BRliDj4esmI?t=6m49s I'm scared.
I need fast charging.
Did anyone bought Samsung original for cheap and where?

I got one off amazon, direct not marketplace. I didn't know the standard S6 doesn't support wireless fast charge though, only normal. Seems it is s6+ & edge that have fast wireless.

Thank you for that. I didn't know that.
Found confirmation here http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/cell-phones-accessories/EP-NG930TBUGUS
"Compatibility: The wireless Fast Charge feature is compatible with Galaxy Note5, Galaxy S6 edge+ and later models of the Galaxy Note and Galaxy S series. Wireless Fast Charge is not compatible with Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 edge or Galaxy S6 active. Those devices will charge at regular speed. "

Not all Fast Wireless Qi Chargers Working

I have had the S7 Edge for the last year. Because I love fast wireless charging, over that time I collected 6 different Fast Wireless Qi Chargers. They all worked great with the S7 Edge. However, in testing them with my new S8+, ONLY two of them work. The other 4 do not work. Instead it sends the phone into a loop where it says "Fast Wireless Charging" then immediately "Wireless Charging Paused".
Again these all worked with my S7 Edge - why wouldn't they also work with the S8+? I have tried all the chargers using the same charger and power cord as well as with two different QuickCharge 2.0/3.0 chargers and cords. Regardless, the two work and the other 4 do not. What am I missing? Is there some special thing the charging pad needs on the S8+ that wasn't necessary to fast wireless charge the S7 Edge?

I would just get official one. Refurb last years model cheap on amazon

I think this may be more of a problem with their phones. I had a note 5 that did that right out the box. Would go on and off wireless charging. Even now I just put the s8 on an aftermarket wireless charger and didn't get anything at all

Mine s8 doesn't like my Otterbox case with the new leather Samsung wireless charger. I have to position it just right.

I have the same problem with my Samsung fast charger (EP-NG930). The problem only exists during fast charging. If I plug in a 5V 2A adapter it will work fine. A Samsung technician in BestBuy confirmed my charger and phone are not compatible then tried to get me to buy a EP-NG920 or EP-PG950.
Samsung's phone support wants me to exchange the phone.
