The Gear S2 charger is smaller but seemed to work when I did my first charge. Didn't notice the size difference until I later set up the S3 charger.

I have used my S2 charger and it seems to work fine, I do see a message on the screen when you wake it while charging that says "Use Original Charger". I also noticed the watch back is a little hotter after charging on the S2 charger.

So sounds like the gear s2 charger could be a viable option..

Its worth an 11 buck shot..

There are different types of s2 charges online. those that say theres works, can you advise which one you have or link the site?

You're charging on you phone's wireless charger? How do you get it to lie flat?

And yet, going to the Samsung site is fruitless. Not selling what he is looking for as of 1 minute ago.

samsung sales reps are as clueless as most retail store reps. you can probably find better info by searching the net.
this should work....

-nevermind, its not the same.
The fast charger has dual voltage output. One of the outputs is 9v. I'm fairly sure this is the fast charge element.
Doesn't matter how high the mA rating is for the 5v chargers they will not trigger the fast charge process.
I'm gonna keep looking and post here when I find something!
Scroll to the bottom of this page and there are links to the Quick Charge 2.0 adapter manufacturers.

Step 1 - look at the charger that came with your Note 4. If you don't have one, ask someone who does.
Step 2 - locate part number printed on the charger.
Step 3 - Google said part number.
Is this not it?

Absolutely not. This is just a regular charger. Rapid charging is not the same thing as adaptive fast charging. Rapid charging is just a function of the 2amp output, vs 0.5amp on old school usb chargers. Rapid charging is 4+ years old technology, and is the standard charger you find almost everywhere.
Ah this really sucks, i had one nicked a few days ago in a hostel in Romania, i will settle for unoffical if anyone has found one?
I think these are both on backorder until November 4th, but it gives you a place to start.

Register your Phone with Samsung.. they will send you a 50% off coupon. Use this to buy as many OEM batteries as you wish.. $20 is cheap for factory battery.
EDIT. Sry I was speaking about the battery rather than the charging cable. But you should also be able to gr the cable from Samsung as well with the coupon code
Are we able to use the Note 4 charger on other things like Bluetooth and such?
Wondering if it would damage them from charging too fast if it does.

Wireless Charger.

Should I buy the Samsung wireless charger or the Verizon one?
Samsung. The fast charging one when it's released of course.

Too bad I got a regular Samsung Wireless Charger free with Edge+ @ BestBuy. Although, the same product is showing for pre-order at their website for some reason. It was released a while back, it should have been the fast charger on pre-order. Anyway, will see once I pick it up on 21st.
I know that Qi wireless charger is great.
I will try it ,when my S6 plus is arrival

I have one of the old chargers too, but it doesn't like the edge plus. It will charge for about 5 to 10 minutes then it will just flash blue. Are you having issues with yours?

You know what, I picked my phone today along with the old wireless charger and I had just put the phone over the wireless charger like 15 min before. Every 5 min, my Edge+ stops charging and the charger blinks blue. I was about to search on google when I came across your post. No idea whats wrong with it.... Lets see if anybody else is having similar issue.
I found a post that people are saying it's related to the lock screen, when they enable day dream mode it worked for some people. I tried it the phone stayed on for awhile, when I came back a hour later it was flashing blue again so I'm not to sure what the issue is.

Yeah, I can always buy that Samsung Wireless Fast Charger , its just $69 and if you register your new flagship, they are throwing 30% off coupon codes too. However, my point is, if the they have decided to give away these old generation fast chargers, the least it should do is charge. I have tried using a different fast charge adapter and a Nexus 4. Still blinking!
Anyway, I've written back to Samsung about this one, lets hope they get back. If not, I'll have to take it back to BestBuy and pickup another one!

Too bad that's 30% off 59.99 or less so the fast charger is 10$ more than that code will allow

You're right, never saw that piece. Sammy is desperate to sell off its official accessories. S6 Edge accessories were very inferior, so I didn't even look at the Samsung section this time, straight to SpiGen.
Same issue as you all with the note5. Same Samsung charger that bestbuy gave away.
Sent from my SM-N920V using XDA Free mobile app
Same here. 20 minutes of charging then it quits. I'm going to return it to Best Buy. Maybe they'll give me credit towards a better charger. More likely they'll just exchange it for another.
I have same problem with s6 edge plus. I will try to exchange the phone.

Gear 3 Qi charging compatibility?

Hello,
One of my reasons to purchase Gear S3 was it Qi charging capability.
I have phone Qi phone charger in my carand I thought to use it for Gear also.
To my disappointment, the charger does not charge the watch.
The watch doesn't show charging and becomes warm.
It works OK with Samsung stock charger though.
Since Gear S3 has million of settings - is there any way to make it work with the car Qi charger?
Thanks!
No, there is no settings for it, simply, watch is not Qi charging compatible. Check this http://www.tizenexperts.com/2017/02...ers-with-your-gear-s3-it-could-fry-your-watch
Hello,
Has anyone tried charging their Gear S3 (Classic/Frontier) with a Nokia DT-900 Qi Charger?
I got a couple of these chargers when it went on clearance at my local ATT store.
I just got a Frontier from ebay (no warranty) and don't want to take any unnecessary risks.
Looking at the DT-900 specs: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/mobile/accessory/dt-900/specifications/
It would appear the charger is within spec of the 750 mA input.
Any advice would be appreciated.
I have various QI wireless chargers and for most they do not work. I have one that is a fast qi charger (10w) and it did work and the charging indicator showed on the watch. (Amazon link: http://a.co/bEck7Tr). That said, I only let it charge for a few seconds as I don't want to damage my watch. As well gear S3 had to be perfectly placed for it to start charging... so not worth it in my opinion.

It charges with my S10+ using wireless power share. I guess you can do it, but not quite recommended.
It may get hot and the battery may get damaged by using a not compatible charger.
Better safe than sorry!

My gear s3 frontier wouldn't work with power share with my original case (encased rebel series) but worked without the case. This was despite wireless charging for the s10+ working with case on.
I just got a spigen neo hybrid today and the power share works but it has to be lined up just right. My guess is your case is just too thick for the wireless power share.
Edit: make sure you turn on power share. It doesn't just work without enabling it first on the phone.

Yeah, I thought it would be like hey, there's something that could be charged and just work.
I didn't want to sound condescending but it really wasn't advertised greatly. I'm sure the buds probably have something that says "to charge with power share, turn it on first", but I haven't gotten those yet. Honestly, I'm just so happy I can charge my Gear S3 frontier with it. It's stupid that a "standard" Qi pad won't charge it, but my phone will.....

Are the chargers for S2 and S3 the same?

I'm using the original Samsung EP-OR720 charger with S3 and S3 would every once in a while stop charging at 87-88% (always those percentages) with a complaint message that I should attach the original charger
S2 never complained about it, so I'm thinking that there might be a slight difference between original chargers for S2 and S3.
When it stops charging at 87% I just take it off the charger and put it back on, then it reaches 100% normally. It doesn't heat up or anything, just reports that silly message.
Googling revealed that EP-YO760 is the one for S3, it's also a bit bigger.
However, the charging capacity should be the same.
5V and 0.7A..

Definitely not the same size, and I would not use the S2 with the S3, alignment of charger/watch isn't right.

Yeah, realizing later that the difference in size might mean that the coil in the charger does not align properly with the watch. Thanks.
I have used the s2 charger stand on my s3. It works but it's very slow. Only have done that if I can't locate the s3.

You're right, I think mine charges slower too. I ordered S3 one in the meantime.
I thought this is Tizen 3 Bug...
Used my Charger from SM-R732 with my SM-R760...
I realized Warning with Original Charger only since Tizen 3... CQK3... and now in CQL1...
