My T-Mobile LTE frontier doesn't have any USB connections on it, strictly wireless charging which it comes with. You may be able to plug in the power bank to the wireless charger but not sure what will happen.

It will work without any problems with a powerbank with 1A output and original charging cradle.

This uses a different type of charging and not really QI supported.

[Q] It is like hell.... Please help me out from the HELL...

I'm from India and I buy SCH-R530U and its working fine but my big big big problem is the charging point or the charger. When I plug the charger its some time charge or some time not. I plug the charger whole night but charge is very slow and I changed the charger and used Indian S2/S3 charger but its not working. Then I check that the USC S3 charger and Indian S2/S3 charger input voltage and output voltage are much difference. So my question is, If I go to Sumsung Care and changed the charger point to Indian S3 I9300, its working or not??? After put Indian S3 charger point to my mobile charging, data transfer or video output working good or not???
Please reply as soon as possible.
Thanks...

First of all your in the USA variant of the S3 Verizon version, your speaking of the US Cellular version. I'd personally trade it for the international S3. It sounds to me like the charging port on the phone is shot. Best bet would be to replace the phone unless you can get someone to fix it or fix it yourself.

Agree, sounds like that charging port. Easy solution is to get a wireless receiver and a charging pad (you'll never need the cord in the port again)

External battery with fast charging

Hi! I'm looking for a portable battery with fast charging support. Any advice? Thank you
I have this one. Very happy with it. As far as I am aware, the battery pack itself doesn't get fast charged but it certainly fast charges my S6.

How much time does it takes you Galaxy S6 to fully charge with that portable battery?

Sorry I've never timed it and, in any event, I've never charged it from flat so the charging time will depend on what charge the phone is at. However, the S6 does recognise in the notification bar that a fast charger is attached.

I have the same charger too, it's roughly the same as when you plug it into the wall charger. This power bank has a output rating at 5V 2.1A, 9V 1.8A, 12V 1.35A
I'm looking to buy this one: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00ZCGLBT6...lid=24HF3S94RKMEX&coliid=I1Q0YT35RLA8CF&psc=1

I just ordered this one and it arrives today. Hoping to test it out once my S6 arrives Monday. They have $8 off this charger at amazon http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/08/25/deal-alert-take-8-off-choetech-15-6k-mah-quick-charge-2-0-external-battery-pack-with-amazon-coupon-code/

Thanx, I'll check it out
I have this one from techmate. It's really small, but it's great. Quick charges perfect!
I've this one:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00OJXVDAU/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_2bm7vb70Q5KCP
It seems to be capable of quick charging even though it isn't declared as being able to do quick charge.
But the "approximately time to fully charge the device" is the same when I use this power bank or the Samsung quick charger.

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?

Thanks! I forgot the bands on the S3 aren't like the S2, so it can lie flat!

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.....
