[Q] Battery recharge time? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is normal to take more than 4 hours to charge up to 100% the battery?
Case i think that is to much, are faster ways to recharge the cellphone?

Use a charger with more power....an iPad charger provides 2a current nd 10 watts power...it should reduce charging time...while the one with the note gives 1a....

Using a PC port? Computer USB ports only output 100 ma. We have a 2500 mah battery. So you're looking at at least 25 hours for a full charge.

Like i said before...buy an ipad charger...

As far as I know, according to USB specs, it should have 500mA. (5 hours charging time).
I believe that there is a charger provided with the Note that is at least 1000mA.

And the note Suport that charger?

That's right, yesterday i ler it charging while doing a benchmark, in the pc it loses 2% and hardly came to the same Power that before. Out in the samsung charger it's much master, i dont have lose any power at all.

Use a more powerful charger.

Any USB charger that plugs into a wall should output much more power, generally up to one amp. Any USB charger should work.
I use the one that came with my mytouch 4g because it is tiny.

My iPad charger outputs 2.1A, the Samsung charger only outputs 1A. Since the Note's battery is only 2.5A, it will be fully charged within 1 hr and 12 mins with the iPad charger. Using the standard Samsung charger it will take 2 hr and 20 mins.
Using an USB-port it would take you approximately 25 hours since the USB-port only outputs 0.1A. There is no way to draw more power from this port, since it's the 'safe' limit of the USB-circuitry.

thanks i have buy it today, and now i am going to test it.
Later i will give you a feedback
After 1:30 Min is about 50%, do you think the 2,1 amp's aren't being used?

It's not - but you really wouldn't want to charge that fast. It's not good for the battery.

i know the limits of the amperage but they are not put by me, any usb 2.0 cable is good for the job?

finally i get 100% after 3 hours, is that a good result?

Should be OK. My phone usually takes 3 hours to charge as well.

thanks, i tough that the phone has some problem.

2500mAh/1000mA = 2.5Hrs.
But I think the charge curve for lithium batteries isn't linear, the amount of juice near the end is reduced by the controller, so all in all 3hrs for an almost drained battery seems reasonable.

[Q] How much time does it take to recharge?!!

Hello everyone. My Tab takes about 8 hours and 20 minutes to recharge itself, is that normal?!!
I have the official cable and a generic 5v-2amp wall charger.
Do I have to get the official wall charger and where can I find it, coz I don't want to spend another $20 while I already have the cable...
8 hours is a really really long time ? ? i think you need to buy a original charger .. where to find : nearest Samsung Service center tho .
Chargers go bad. My stock charger just died when I went to the desert with no chance of getting another charger.

3-4 hours from 10% to full charge on original charger.....However if you have electronics knowledge you can patch your non orig charger so that it will charge your tab faster. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=845844&page=3
So, I guess I'll have to get the original charger. I found a very good deal... I think:

lol . and how could you charge your tab in the desert though ? plug it into some sans ?
If you go to the desert on foot no way to charge....
But if via off roader/4 wheel drive then via the cigar lighter using the adaptor I linked to earlier
yeah get the original charger, mine takes like 3-4hrs if that...
mine is original samsung, 5v 2amp. Take about 8 hours to fully charge the battery. What about your charger voltage rating?

Well, I have a SGT7 Plus (P6200) and I usually charge it at 20% or lower.
It takes about 3-4 hours to full recharge while it's off
you do realised this was a June 2011 thread?

Stopped Charging at 41%

So I was gearing up to charge my N7 for the first time so I decide to leave it plugged in over night.
I wake up and I find that the screen is on and "Charging 41%" is flashing on the screen.
Anyone experience this yet?

Are you able to turn it on and run the device?
Play with it a while and see if things improve or get worse.
Were you using the OEM charger AND cable? The $1 chinese cable I used with the OEM charger had mine charging to 100% in 16 hours +
Make sure you are using the OEM Charger & Cable.
Also make sure you use the mains and not a USB port, I tried using a USB port on my mains and charging was like 1% per 30 mins, plugged it directly via the AC adapter in and started going up 1% per min.
I am using the charger that came with my Nexus One at the moment. It seems to work fine with all my other phones, does the N7 need more power or something?

It's not irrelevant. It means the 2A charger can source up to 2 amps if needed (which obviously it does need).
A tablet has a lot bigger battery and draws more current then a phone, which is why it has a bigger charger. If the charger can't source enough current to overcome the rate that the device uses power, then it won't charge or will take forever.

You know what.. I confused this thread with another. My bad. Not irrelevent.
BUT.. 1 amp is more than enough to charge an N7. My old 700ma rated Blackberry charger can charge it from 0-100% in under 8 hours.

The stock 2A charger does it in about 3 hours and change from full drain power down to full charge.
Both of you are right, not the irrelevant part mind you but the part that it is enough and it may not be.
It all depends on what the tablet is doing at charging time. If it is off and the leakage current is low (as it should be) then most any 5v transformer will do. It will just take longer to charge.
HOWEVER if the transformer is not able to feed the N7 with more current than it needs to operate, on or off, sorry it won't work, no charging for you.
Now shake hands and go play outside.

No problem. I didn't mean to get snippy either, but I'm having a sh*tty day. ..To get back on topic, being an amateur radio operator, I have to have a little knowledge on electronic theory. My original response wasn't really to debate whether 1A is actually enough to charge an N7. My post to the OP was pointing out that he is in fact using a charger rated at half the amps of the rated charged of the N7, for whatever the reason it isn't working, and it also seems instead of trying the correct charger, he came directly in here.

The transformer is a source. It doesn't feed or force, it gives what is demanded by what it connected to it, as long as it's not over what it can handle (2A max rating) - in which case the coils of the transformer will get hot, possibly melting off the clear enamel insulation of the coils until you get a short and sparks flying out of your outlet, and pop a surge protector (hopefully)
edit: well unless it has some over_current protection built into it, or a fuse, in which case it would just die and not charge anymore :laugh:
edit2: But as just lou said, try the correct charger.
Another problem from using too low of a current transformer is you could put too much stress on it, and then it's voltage regulation circuits don't keep a nice clean steady voltage, and instead you could get spikes or noise, and that could lock up your device too. Of course this is just all possibilities, but to rule out variables it's just easier to use the correct charger
If the Nexus tablet requires 2 amps, then it will pull upto 2 amps. If it's doing this from a 1 amp supply, then the 1 amp power supply will overheat and possibly break. Amps can be larger than needed, but make sure voltage is correct.

charger and power bank for moto g2

Hello guys...
Bought this new moto g2 2 days back 16gb dual sim..
Battery backup is okay... But battery charging takes alot of time.
It takes 1 hour to charge 20-25% i.e 3-3.5 hours for full battery.
Any other chargers to charge it fast?
And please can anyone suggest a good power bank for my moto g2
As i cant sit and use my phone while it gets charged for 4 hours.
Thanks..

Turbocharger needs fastcharge script,
THis script is in built in seveal custom kernels and also those used in CM12.
So if you install CM12 which has fastcharge support, tubocharger should work fine
Orignal charger takes 2.5 to 3 hours
use this "Sony CP-AD2 USB AC Adaptor" for your phone
use this Sony CP-AD2 USB AC Adaptor for Charging
You can by from amazon from this link:
Quick Compare:
Output: 5V 2.1A VS 5V 500mA(0.5A) as compared to original charger from Motorola
This charger charges your full phone in around 1 n 1/2 hr.
I found this as best charger around 500 bucks
Use orignal charger only. becoz other charger might damage u r battery.

your z3c charging speed?

Hi there, I just wanted to try something...
I see that my Z3C charges very slow with the original UK charger. It charges 800mah every sec9nd. So I tried with the iPad charger and it is still the same.. maybe abit lower, at 600mah. what is going on? it takes almost 3-3.5 ahours to charge this phone... seriouslly? Sometimes I forget to charge it overnight and chargin it at day is like charging though a USB port...

Maths.
2600 mAh battery.
800 mA charger.
2600/800 = 3.25 or 3 hours and 15 minutes.
Today, I don't think this phone can accept anything like 2A charger (don't really know) . Else, it would take 1.3h or 1 hour and 18 minutes.
Get a 2A charger, disconnect every electrical equipment and charge your phone.

Yes Quickcharging will improve charging time. But as stated above it also depends if you use your phone in the meantime and its idel consumption. The fastest charging time will be if you turn of your phone and then start charging.

so is the stock charger charging at what? it says 1.5A; 800 or as stated 1.5?

Any charger that has Qualcomm QuickCharge 2 built in.
They are a little bit more expensive, but are worth it in my eyes.
They charge a lot quicker than normal chargers as the charger monitors battery temp and delivers maximum charge without stressing the battery.
I can charge my phone from under 10% to charged in 2 hours and it's not even warm.
When I plug the phone into my PC at work it gets really hot and I'm sure that's not good for the battery.

It CAN be charged by any QC 2.0 charger but you won't get any out-of-the-box. The standard charger is EP880 paired together with EC803 charging/data cable. My original charger stopped working after just 10 months and now I'm using Blitzwolf BW-S2QC charger.
But it's true - quickcharging a phone does not even make it hot or anything like that. Unless you start using it but it's my case
I recommend buying QC 2.0 charger.
Be sure the cable you are using supports quick charge 2.0 as well
