I am lucky enough to have a note n7000 that doesn't suffer from any Wakelocks or battery issues.
I have 4.0.3 stock ROM installed, rooted with speedmod kernel 3-7 and carbon tweaks installed.
Phone runs great and gets a quadrant score around 4300.
I got an in car USB charging adapter. It is 5 volt 1 amp. The adapter came with a USB cable and I used that to charge the phone while on a 2 hour journey using GPS navigation and the battery was drained completely despite being plugged into the charger. Battery shows lightning bolt symbol and phone beeps to show that charger is plugged in.
I also left the phone switched off and plugged into the charger in the car for about 3 hours but that didn't charge the battery at all.
Any idea why it doesn't work?
Also real football 2012 used to work great on my phone but now it just won't load. I tried reinstalling but it still won't load up. Any idea why that might be??

It could be the charger or the lead - I presume the phone charges ok from the mains.
I have one USB lead that wont charge my Note if I'm using it at the time {battery capacity goes down), and I expect it's down to low cable quality with not enough copper so too high a resistance dropping too much voltage.
The best way is to test by substitution.
I think note requires 3amp car chrger
buy from genuine samsung accessory

yep buy a genuine samsung car charger. I bought one and i haven't encountered a problem with it....
My sister got the GT-I9305 a little while back. Usually, she takes quite a few hours to charge it fully, about 7-8 hours. However, recently, it got worse. The phone has been sitting at 37% for over an hour now, and it is still stuck at 37%! I've searched for other threads on this issue but they didn't really solve my issue. It seems really weird that the battery hasn't even turned for the better(or the worse) after over an hour.
Anyone has any insight on this? Thanks a bunch!
P.S. Everything was off except for Power Saving mode and the mobile signal.
use a different charger, cable, port
i own that phone and i have to say that the charger is very weak 1000mAh charger for 2100mAh takes a lot i currently use my nokia's charger it has1200mAh and that makes a huge difference,my friend's uses nokia lumia's or of you have a recent computer you might have a supercharging port that provides much more power,
Hi everbody.
I use 2 different chargers, one from my tablet BQ Maxell Plus, other from another cellular...
NEVER had issues charging my I9300, with stock rom or other one....very fast and until 100%.
NEVER used the original one, but looking at it, is a joke of charger.....
Values: All debitate 5V, and 0.1 and 0.2 Amperes.
You must take in consideration other factors like electronic heat dissipation, filtrate, stabilitie, etc,etc with it seens not works well with the original one....
Who says that bigger ins`t better?:good:
1000mah is more than enough, must be a charger /cable problem

you guys are using capacity units on a charger. Chargers don't have any capacity, they have current, which is measured in amps, not amp/hours. So S3 charger would be a 1000mA or 1A, not 1000mAh
Never had a problem with the original charger. Charge time more than decent

right ^^ it's 1A and 1.2 A
Try disabling USB debugging if its on. Its in developer settings.

how can that have an effect on the charging current?
On some cyanogenmod 10.1nigthlies versions it has problem with charging takes forever with oem charger, i am now on sentinel rom 4.6 it has same problem. Just use usb port from computer or some media player. It charge to full in maybe 5 hours from usb port, i dont remember excatly.
I agree the S3 Lte does not have the same speed in charging as the 9300 I use to own even though the chargers are the same, even different roms don't solve the issue, need a custom kernel to up the charging current that was available with the i9300 to reduce charging times

I usually have my note3 plugged into normal usb port on my notebook as i work to recharge it just using a normal micro usb cable.. i noticed that re-charges usually take forever and even after 2-3 hours of charging it only goes up only about 10%... is this normal ? my previous phone iphone 2-3 hours on a charger its fully charged.
is there anything i can do to speed up the re-charging like asus ai charger ? or anything else ?
Usb 2.0 is limited to ~ 500ma, the phone will pull 1.2a- 1.5a on the Samsung charger

The ASUS AI charger is for 3.0 only I believe, and your Note isn't compatible with that. I purchased one of the RCA plugs from Lowes that has 4 USB ports on it and has an output of 4.1 or 4.2 amps and using the 3.0 cable that came with the phone it charges it very fast.

Here's what I use guys. I used it on my Note 2, my brother's S3, my Note 3, and also my LG G Pad 8.3. It has about 1.8-1.9A charging capability and charges a little faster oddly enough than the 2.0A stock plug when plugged into the wall. Yes, it's a wall charger, so that's obviously the best way to charge. It's cheap and very convenient; the cable is actually quite long, which is much nicer so you have more room to move around when charging. You won't be disappointed. I don't advertise garbage products. I always look for the best quality things and share my results and opinions to help others. Before my Note 3, I had rooted my Note 2 and had Perseus kernel; I increased the charging values so I could utilize faster charging, and this charger was the best for that. I highly recommend it. I've had it for about almost 11 months. It has never given me any issues, and it has great reviews.
So what is the max that note3 will take?

Hey Peeps
Anyone else getting slow charging on SM-T810?
Using the bundled charger, I am getting average of only 680mA .... Definitely nothing over 950mA and that is even when screen is off...
Using the same charger and cable on my sony xperia Z3 easily achieve 1400mA ...
Same sort of numbers with other chargers etc... So pretty sure it is device not charger...

I just tested and am getting around 1500 mA. That is with my nexus 6 charger.
Bundled charger gives me around 1460 mA.
Are you certain it`s not the app that is wrong as the S2 is new and the app might not have been updated yet, Try the Samsung charging app below, you have to keep pressing the refresh button on the free version.

The charging rate can be anything from 300mAh to the maximum the power adapter can output, the tablet will determine the amount of power it will accept, and will jump from fast to slow charge depending on how much more power is needed until it reach 100%.
Thanks guys - obviously does not seen to be wide issue.
I tried the Samsung app above ... Sort of showed similar values ....
I did a charge from 69% to full and it took about 1.5 hours... So would be maybe 5 hours to charge fully?? Unless the device does much quicker charging at very low battery??
I will do a full discharge down to say 5% and then charge from there and see how I go.
Thanks again

I would install battery monitor widget from 3c on the play store.
A pretty comprehensive battery app and will give you a full history and time line of charging and discharging cycles.

Normally it will trickle charge slow once it reach approximate 80%, and is normally fast if the unit is almost power empty.
It's annoying. I've tried both ipad chargers and a 2.4A charger, but it will go to slow charging mode with anything else than the bundled charger.

Yeah i have found exactly the same!! Must be some sort of Samsung handshake protocol...
There is another thread on this that I have mentions about this, just use a good quality charger, or just go for a Qualcomm QC 2.0 charger from any known brand like htc, aukey, xpower, lots to name, just searh Qualcomm site for a full list.
It won't used the QC2.0, but all should work just like the OEM Samsung one
the ipad charger should be pretty high quality though, so I don't get why it's being so picky.

If you also followed the tab S thread, it's also been mentioned, Samsung tabs S are also picky, and yes all apple stuff don't work.
Should I rephrase it and say some good quality charger will work, even branded ones like sony may not even work, but my intital testing, most QC 2.0 charger will work.
The issue is that I'm trying to find one charger that will charge both my tab s2 and my iphone 6+ quickly. Any idea how qc chargers fare with iphones? The bundled tab s2 charger only gave my iphone 0.4A (it charges the tablet at 1.5A)
I have both sony and asus chargers with included cables work perfectly with iphones and sony xperia z3 and nexus 7... Hopeless with S2.... But s2 charger works fine with them..

Odd, my old Nexus 7 2012 charger fast-charges my S2 710 without any issue at all. I had it spare as the N7 died on me (the S2 is its replacement) and was initially wondering myself as I had a few supposedly 2A chargers at home which only slow-charged the S2 (or indeed under Android 5.0.2 said it wasn't charging at all, even though it evidently was, but 5.1.1 has fixed that).
That said this is a charger without fixed cable (but with a decent USB cable) and I know from Raspberry Pi experience that the cable is almost as important as the charger for getting decent charging (ie enough current) to the device on the far end.
I would make sure the USB cable is a decent one intended for charging.
Proper charging USB cables have the shield connected at both ends for use as ground which is why they are notably thicker.

I agree, a good quality cable is required, as well as the charger itself, I'm using a magnetic cable and a reversible micro USB cable with a OEM Samsung, Aukey and Xpower charger, I don't get the speed of the QC 2.0, but it isn't suppose to as the S2 is not QC 2.0 compatible, but it does charge pretty quick, it also charges my ipod 4, and my nw-ZX2 work without any problems.
I get the "slow charging" message when using the Galaxy Tab S2 bundled charger.
If I use the charger from my Note 4 (Exynos) I get faster charging and no "slow" warning.
Did Samsung bundle it with the slow charger??
I can confirm that samsung did in fact bundle the tab s2 WITHOUT a quick charge usb charger.
I also thought the tab s2 didnt come with quick charge. I have extremely slow charge times but my battery lasts for DAYS... I can fully charge it, put it in airplane mode and check on it after 2 days and be at 98-99% battery.
I also use the quick charge cable AND the quick charge usb adapter that came with my note 5 and the tab still slow charges..
Here the same problem use Samsung charger and cable charge from 20% to 100% in 6 hrs and when use HUAWEI cable with Samsung charger It charged in 2 hrs
I guess Samsung have poor quality cable *-*

I know it's supposed to but damn **** is slow!! When using phone I'll sit all day charging the damn thing . It takes a good 2 to 3 hours charging when screen is on. Plane ridiculous! Anyone know of anything to make this better? Will a high amp charger charge it faster? Sick of this I can't charge it for 30 minute while using it before I have to leave , only it being charged 10% in the time being

"When using ??"
What do you mean by ??
Ideally to charge the note 8 fastest you'd either want to use a qualcomm quickcharge 3.0 compatible charger or a USB type C charger with Power delivery (USB-PD), along with a decent cable such as the one included. The Note 8 will say Fast Charging on the lock screen if it's being used with an optimal or near optimal charger/cable combination.
It doesn't fast charge while the screen is on, it barely charges at all.
The output is not far off what the input is when you are using the phone and fast charging.
(Price you pay for a big screen)
If you were using a regular charger and using the phone your phone wouldn't be charging at all it would still discharge.
Simple solution just don't use your phone for half hour !
Charges to full in 1 hour and a half without the screen on
Or charge it overnight? That's what I do and it easily lasts until the next night
I have several samsung fast chargers, but only some of them would work on fast charge.
I realised it was a problem with the cable, so I swapped them to the original Samsung cable and all the fast chargers work on fast charge now.
So check the cables ....
