I have a Phillips Fidelio AS351 Bluetooth dock that has a 3a output and when I put the note 4 on it, it does not charge. Works fine with my note 3. Wondering if anyone else has this happening to them.

With the adaptive charge software I think 2 is the max.
NOTE 4

I just bought a Capdase cardock for my Nexus S, and there are two USB ports I can use to charge it to. The first port is labeled "1A only", and the other one says "1A or 2A".
1) what do 1A and 2A mean?
2) which of the two ports will Nexus S charge better? (I don't want to ruin or short circuit my phone using a wrong port.)
thanks guys!
A = amp(s)
You should be fine with either 1 or 2 amps. If you're going to be running navigation often, 2 amps should help keep the phone from dying on long trips.

I don't know specifically about this phone, but it probably can't draw more than 1 amp. The 2 amp port is good for a tablet. 1A isn't enough for an iPad, for instance.
That's not entirely true. The Nexus One car dock comes with a 2 amp charger and it keeps the phone charged even with screen on and running navigation for several hours. It runs hotter than with the wall charger and, say, playing games or web surfing, but it does the job.

Well there's no "official" car dock from Samsung as far as I can tell, and as a counterpoint my 1A car charger charges the phone just fine while navigating and streaming music via Audiogalaxy for at least 8 hours...

Again..you're totally off base man. There is an official Samsung car dock..it's just hard to find. There's a thread about it right here in the accessories forum.

Heads up the Philips AS140 sound dock will not charge the Nexus 7 while docked. I called their tech support and they said that I had a faulty dock and they shipped me a brand new one. I updated the firmware on the replacement sounddock when it arrived and connected my Nexus 7 to the dock.... Still no charge while connected. Bluetooth functionality work great.
I have the same issue with my phillips dock. No idea what the cause is as to why it won't charge the Nexus 7 but it's frustrating
At a guess the socket/adaptor is not configured for high power devices like tablets that need the data pins to be shorted.
Same issue
Have the same issue with Samsung Note 4. My samsung Note 3 charges just fine, but the Note 4 wont ever recognize it. I read on another post that the Note 4 uses 2.4 amps and the Note 3 used 2.1 amps... So maybe it just isnt the right juice for it to recognize it, but it seems like it should at least recognize that its trying to put juice in it.
has anyone noticed that the note 4 charges in about 1 hr to 1.5 hours max to fully charged? i have or is something up for it charging so fast?
Standard feature on the Note 4. If u look ad the adapter it's putting out 9 volts.

do you think we will see problems in future with batteries needing to be replaced sooner because of this fast charging
I turned off my fast charging option.
Yean I appreciate the superb fast charging. Is it bad to use my older note3 chargers as spares on the go?

It's not bad at all, you can still use any cell phone charger to charge the Note 4
just like we have done when we had the Note 3.
The thing I am wondering about is if can safely use the new Note 4 wall charger
to charge other peripherals like mice, keyboards, wireless headsets and so on.
I used to use the samsung S3, S4 and note 3's wall charger to charge lot's of things.

The batteries are chipped. Phones are chipped. And even the adapter has a chip. You can use your note 4 charger to charge any device. It just won't give the full output as other devices will tell it not to. etc.etc.
Thread moved to Q&A where it should have been posted originally - please post in the correct sections, thanks.
I have 2 car fast chargers.
1. iRAG 36W Dual USB Quick Charge 3.0 Car Charger
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073RQ915H/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
2. AUKEY Car Charger with 36W Dual Quick Charge 2.0 Port
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0176HA31U/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
The problem is that they don't consistently work on the Note 8, they both work with my Nexus 6 and S8+. When I plug the Note into either one it will say fast charging for a few seconds and then go to regular slow usb charging. Then 3 times out of 10 they will stay on fast charge. What if anything am I missing? A setting on the Note 8?
TIA

Hey all.
Just wanted to ask a question. I lost my Note 8 charger, the output seems to be identical on Note 4 and Note8 chargers.
Is there an issue if I use Note 4 charger to charge my Note8 ?
Regards!

Nope. It will just charge slower.

Wasn't the Note 4 fast charging as well? If output is the same, why would it be slower?
OP, you will need to use the appropriate adapter included with your note 8 to plug the older charger into the new usb-c plug on the Note 8.
I'm using my note 4 charger with my note 8 and no issues. It takes about 1 hrs and a half to charge full (I have the fast charge turned off ).
Only reason for the note 4 charger because I bought the note 8 international version and I can't use the power brick here. And yes the voltage is the same on both chargers.
note 4 was the first iteration of quick charge.
We aren't on the first iteration anymore

You can always use a standard travel adapter with the original power plug too if you ever need it.
Am i missing something ? Bothe Note 4 and Note8 support Quick Charge 2.0. The specs of the charger are exactly the same , so I guess the chargers are identical !

Because Samsung scared, even the battery capacity has been reduced...
I plugged a usb 2 to C adapter onto my old Note 5 charger (rather the one that came with the original Fast Charge wireless puck charger) and with this my Note 8 will not fast charge.
The wireless fast charging works on the old puck though.

could be, I tried the Samsung cable that came with it, and a Blackberry-branded USB 2.0 cable that I had laying around, same result.

It might be the ****ty adaptor micro usb to USB C that's the problem. I've tried a few and some work, some don't
