Before I got this charge I ran nothing but HTC phones on tmobile. while being plugged into car charger and using gps the battery level goes down fast. It doesn't maintain the charge or add to it while navigating. Is this a samsung thing? Any remedies?

That cannot be right. Make sure your car charger, when it charges your phone, is pulling AC instead of USB.
GPS uses very little juice. Just get the 950ma Motorola charger from Amazon for 5 bucks. Something is messed up if your phone doesn't charge

Mine doesn't discharge, but it doesn't charge hardly at all. I'm using the Verizon dual port charger (the one that has a USB port on it as well as the standard charging end)

I use a Monoprice 2A USB charger with an OEM USB cable. Charges extremely slowly or just stays level, but never drains.

With GPS on, you barely Charge with that charger? I know its limited by the kernel at 800mA or so, but damn, that should charge you up fine.
I rock GPS in the car all the time and I still Charge pretty quickly...

All depends on what you're running at that time-4G, cell and GPS reception, etc.

Make sure you are using a high amp charger. I like the one from Motorola.
Even so, with 4g and the screen on - the phone charges slowly. Turn the screen off and it charges much quicker.

Samsung offers two wireless charging pads. One is mini and the other is standard size. Is it just the size that is the difference? Does one charge faster than the other?

It looks like the mini only does 1amp charging while the standard does 2amp charging. In short, the standard will charge your phone faster.

That's totally lame. I was going to get the mini just because it looks better and more professionally styled. But I guess not anymore.

Where did you get that info from? In the description of the mini one it clearly states is comes with a 2A charger!
My understanding is that the mini is a new model released with the S5 whereas the other has been around for at least a year now.
Even if it comes with a 2A charger it only charges at 1amp. It's a limitation of wireless charging

I guess that sorta makes sense. I figured I'd use it more like drop my phone down to charge up a bit real quick before heading back out the door. Kind of a busy life style type thing.

The S5 has more than 2 points of contact for the wireless charging back. Not sure if it is for nfc, but maybe the doubled the charging capabilities by having two separate charging coils?
Edit: This is my first post is 5 years, I feel like a lurker.
The power of pad doesn't matter, the coil from the back of the case is the charging source. So for s4 note 3 it's 650 mamps and the new one for s5 is 700 mamps( if i spoted right in the pictures). The difference is in aspect and size only.

Are they up to 1A now? Last I checked, there wasn't a wireless charger anywhere that charged faster than 850mAh. Which is only 30% as fast as the USB 3.0 charging of 2500mAh.

1amp is theoretical charging speed.
Just like how the phone stock charger is 2amps, it will max out at around 1.8 amps

Here is a review of it
http://unleashthephones.com/2013/01/26/nokia-fatboy-wireless-charging-pillow-review/
Get them while they last!!
I have three wireless chargers. The small original Samsung, one Nillkin and a noname. I am using the original charging back from Samsung. I am very happy with the small original Samsung charger. The S5 gets much less warm than with the both others and it stops charging at 100%.
I had it on the Nillkin over night and the next day when it has been at nearly 100% already in the evening it was extrem hot at the morning and still charging but it showed 100% but not the full message at all. Very suspicious. With the noname I very often have the wireless charging detected message when it comes over 9x% so it looks as if the charger often "looses the connection" to the wireless charging back cover.
The original small Samsung charger says 5,3V and 2A on the back and it loads at maximum wireless power with the original back cover and the original power supply. For me this is the best combination. The only thing is, that you cannot use the S5 very well while charging because of the small charging pad. I most time take the charging pad with the S5 in one hand so it cannot tilt.

3 coils vs 1 coil.
3 coils is better with cases and easier to place the phone on it.

Both samsung charger are 1 coil.
3 coil offer a wide surface detection, but does not mean it's better that a single coil charger.

If everything fails, flash stock back on... See if it still does it. If it does, its cord, charger or USB port is damaged and loose.

As long as it says Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 any of them should work.

Judging by the quoted spec of 5/9/12V it is the HTC TC P1000 charger, not the TC P900 as shipped in the box (of my EE unit)

can you take a picture of your charger of dose it say Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 on it ?
Anyone in the US (not sure about other regions) can waltz into a verizon store and pick up one of these:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/acce...er-with-fast-charge-technology-for-micro-usb/
Price isn't terrible at ~$35. I'm not on verizon and I don't like all the red, but who cares at the end of the day. Also, the USB cable it comes with has a light on the end. which is handier than I thought it would be. IE: stabbing your phone in the butt when trying to charge it in the dark. I do not regret getting this charger for a second.
I ordered this one. http://www.shopandroid.com/ventev-q...llport-micro-usb-wall-charger/5A255A20425.htm

(If you can't catch it then it's a quick charge... lol!) Yes there is a way, if you plug in a slow charger you will get a pop up message telling you that you are using a slow charger. I charge my m9 from my PC as it has a built-in USB port for fast charging phones, which can even be used if the PC is powered off.
Will this charger charge the M9 faster? I don't know if it supports that Qualcomm fast charging 2.0 though?

I've had great results from the Choe brand QC chargers LINK. Used it with my M8 now using for my M9.
I got the Anker Qualcomm 2.0 Quick Charger.
It works. Light glows green when my M9 is plugged in. Charges stupid fast.
Takes up one space on the power strip.

I've had pretty good luck in general with Anker stuff, but I've never used one of their quick chargers.

I bought that same charger. Would you be willing to download the free app called Ampere and see what it reports for current when you are using that charger? I am having a very weird issue where Ampere is only reporting about 250mA with that charger but if I use a different charger that is not Qualcomm certified I get upwords of 1500 milliamps. I'm wondering if Ampere is just not capable of handling the calculation on a phone with the Qualcomm Quick Charge technology or if there is something wrong with the charging of my phone.
I just bought these two, and it said I will have them by Sunday; it's Friday!
Two fast charge ports on the wall charger and 1 on the car charger, and the rest of the ports are 2.4 amp 5 volt.

Anyone run across this?
Both the Tumi and the Incipio battery mod will not charge unless plugged into the supplied charger, 30 w one that came with phone.
I'm aware QC 2.0 charges will not technically charge the Z Force at turbo speed but charges it faster than a standard charger.
So using a 2.0 charger it charges the phone fine but will not switch to charging the battery mods. This is using a usb c cable and a micro usb cable with a USB micro to usb c connector.
It just sits there saying g waiting to charge. But once I use the supplied charger it charges the moto mod battery.
Interesting...I wonder if it has anything to do with tripping the "turbo power" message...there are chargers out there (have to be usb-c to usb-c) that will turbo charge our phones...but not as fast as the OEM charger...I'd be curious to see if those work to charge the power packs

The funny thing is even when I use the supplied 30 watt charger that came with the phone it charges about 300 mah/rate. Heck my 2.0 chargers charge the phone at 1600 mah/rate. So I don't know. I know if it's not fixed soon I'll be returning the incipio wireless battery mod back to best buy in a couple days.

Well spoke to Motorola customer tech support today. They advised the issue I'm having with th eastern mod, tumi and incipio, is a known issue.
They also advised the only way to charge the phone and have it then switch to charging the battery mod is to use the supplied charger. No other charger will work.
I can't believe they would not think of this issue coming up. Very disappointed.

Looks like your charger is QC 2.0. It probably only produces 10W (2A X 5V). The Moto Z charger produces 15W (3A X 5V). Your Z Force charger produces 28.5W (5.7 X 5V).
I think the min. W to TurboCharge is 15W.

I suppose that would make sense, though I hope the software update would add support to QC 2.0. I'd hate to rebuy all my fast chargers for the 3.0 capability. If anything I think they should require that the phone reach 100% and then the battery starts charging, if the 2.0 chargers cannot charge both simultaneously. I love Motorola phones but their support is in SERIOUS need of a reform.

It will never support QC. QC is incompatible with it. Phones that have USB C and QC are out of spec. Have a look at this thread for more info on it.

Wireless chargers do the trick.
I had the same issue but had a qi wireless charger in the drawer here at work. Set it on top and it's now charging the Incipio battery mod, so it's all good. Irritating that a Samsung OEM usb-c charger from my S8 won't charge the mod though.

You can't (uninstall mod manager), at least not on Oreo. Disabling and re-enabling doesn't change the behavior.
I had the issue mentioned here, my moto mod battery was not charging. I switched to the cable and plug that came with the phone and it started charging. Thanks to the folks on here that mentioned it as a possible fix.
