Solution Wireless fast charge - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions & Answers

In case anyone needs wireless fast charge solution.... The solution I found, is to use a generic wall plug and a shorter wire... DON'T use the Samsung wall fast charge plug. It seems to conflict with phone charger pattern

What??????
My 2 Samsung fast wireless chargers work perfect with the fast charging adapter they came with.

I'm not having any issues with my Samsung fast charge plug. It charges very fast. Maybe yours is defective.

[Q] Fastest Car charger.

Hi i am currently using the basic motorola charger and it feels like tis really slow. I know that the note 2 can handle 2amp chargers or more. Can anyone reccomend a fast car charger and if neccesary a fast charge cable to use in the car. I have a toyota which only charges while the car is on so the faster it charges the better. Thanks for your help
I use my Nook charger

I use my nook charger in the car:

It's fast and almost flush with the lighter jack.
I have the anker 24w 2 port charger. Charges pretty good speed. 12 buck on amazon. It has smart port so it'll charge any smart phone including iPhone iPad etc..

I have a simple usb charger that I bought at Walgreens for 5 bucks. Charges pretty quick. I have a good quality usb cable as well.
Almoust all car chargers charge 5.0v and 1A so is half from the wall charger amount

If only "pretty quick" and "pretty good speed" were reliable metrics to go by.
I've yet to find a car charger that will get more than 1.1amps on the meter. Max is 1.8.
1.1amps is enough to charge the phone "pretty quick" normally, but not if it is loaded down. Once I get GPS, bluetooth audio and Torque Pro going at the same time, I find that 1.1amps will actually result in a slow drain. I use an inverter and a stock wall charger which keeps the phone charging even at full use. I've yet to find a aftermarket car charger that will do the job.

Aukey Quick Charge 3-port USB does not charge using Samsung Wireless Charger?

Hey all,
I got an Aukey 3-port USB wall charger for Christmas (Model PA-T2), that includes a Quick Charge 2.0 port. I plugged in my Samsung Fast Charge Wireless charger into the port, but it does not fast charge at all. It will say fast charging, but then it will disconnect ("Wireless Charging Paused") after a couple of seconds. It'll keep cycling like this, so it's never really charging.
If I just plug the cable directly into the phone, it fast charges just fine though. I've tried changing cables as well.
Has anybody run into this issue with this Wall charger before?
Does your Samsung puck work fine with the included Samsung fast charge ac adapter?
The Samsung fast wireless charger has a warning not to use unapproved ac adapters or damage to the puck can occur. Must be reason why they state that. Could just be marketing cause they want you to use/buy their ac adapters but after all the wireless charger comes with an ac adapter.
The Samsung fast charging adapters don't have 12v output (not needed anyway) unlike certified QC2.0 chargers. Maybe the Samsung pucks don't have protection against the 12v, who knows, pretty stupid if they don't though.
I've already had issues with 2 Choetech fast wireless chargers. I was using a Tronsmart QC2.0 adapter which the Chotech is supposed to work fine with. Not taking any chances with my Samsung fast wirless puck, I only use it with the Samsung fast charging adapter & use my QC2.0 charger for cable charging.
Then there is/was the Verizon variant issue if that's what you have.

I was using it with the Samsung Fast charger just fine. Tried the Aukey fast charger (3-port USB) and it suddenly doesn't work. Such a bummer that it doesn't seem to be compatible..

Fast wireless charging is really slow

Hi guys, my Note 9 charges extremely slowly when it is on a the fast wireless charger. It does say "Fast wireless charging" but it takes over 4 hours to charge fully. My mum has a Note 9 as well and her phone charges significantly quicker than mine on the same charger. I have tried turning off and on the fast wireless charging option and factory resetting my phone. Has anyone of you experienced this same problem?
Both phones are the same model, Exynos 128GB
I have tried multiple wall adapters and wireless chargers as well. The official samsung wireless charger convertible and a remax fast wireless charger. Tried with Samsung adapter and QC3.0 adapter.
There was an instance where my wireless charger was fast charging it and the charger burned up. It got really really hot to the touch and that particular charger stopped working. I'm thinking that it might have damaged the charging coils?
It might be a hardware defect, is there a way to back up my phone fully? Like an iPhone? Or is smart switch the best option I have right now without rooting?

was it always this way?(even b4 the charger burn)
is cable fast charge also slow?
I think it was faster before that incident. But I am not so sure.
Is there a software thing that might have done this? If not I am almost certain it is my phone
Fast cable charging works flawlessly.

go to accessories and disable fast wireless charging and compare. then next time around reenable it and see if there is any difference.
Do you use any protective case? Maybe it contains metal that blocks the magnetic field of the charger.

Xiaomi 10W wireless charger - can't get fast charging to work

Hey people,
Anyone got this charger(picture below) and managed to get fast wireless charging working? I've tried it with the original Samsung power adapter+cable and it didn't work, it's just charging at 5W. There's a video on youtube where you can see a previous note model using fast charging, so I don't think it's false advertising. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=caRtqv27tPY&feature=youtu.be&t=242 , the red cable doesn't fast charge, the black one, supposedly the one that came with the qi box, does fast charge).
Also someone mentioned in another thread that the previous Samsung adapters worked but the note 9 doesn't for some reason. It's very confusing, so maybe someone has cracked this.

I fast wireless charge mine using a Ravpower Wireless charger, it does indeed charge at the 10W it's rated for, I've confirmed with an inline USB power meter.
To be able to use fast wireless charging, I have it connected to a QC 3.0 port on a multi port QC charger and it works fine. Not near it currently, so can't test with the Samsung charger. Do you have any other QC chargers you could try?

No, sadly the only one I have is a OnePlus dash charger and this one only uses 5V (you need 9V for fast charge from what I know), so it's just charging at 5W.
But yeah I'd really appreciate you trying it out, since what I need right now is just any adapter that might work.

Just tested and I can confirm, the Samsung charger did not work, I just got the Wireless charging message. Connecting the wireless charger back to it's normal port and I get "Advanced wireless charging".
Although my Wireless charger claims to support QC 2.0, I can't think of any reason why the Samsung QC 2.0 charger wouldn't work.
Using wireless charger BW-FWC5 + wall adapter BW-S6 in QC port, both from blitzwolf and i have fast charging.

Well I'm not familiar with all the details behind wireless charging so I cannot really tell, but thanks to both of you, I think the issue is now resolved on my end. I'll either just buy the blitzwolf adapter or try with another QC3.0 adapter.

I did notice this but was skeptical on the 65W PD. Not sure if the S21U can handle 65W...45W is possible because that's where the stock Samsung charger lands when super fast charging.

S21U doesn't allow 45W charging either, no matter which charger you use. USB PD uses a two way handshake protocol, and the charger will only supply whatever the phone allows depending on temperature, charge level etc. You can use any wattage PD certified charger safely. If you're planning to charge your MacBook, 65W would be good for a decent charge rate. 25W or 45W wouldn't be ideal for a laptop. The 65W charger will be good for charging any PD certified device, at least according to my understanding of USB PD.

Oh, my bad..I think the max S21U supports is 25W. The funny thing is that when I charge using my battery bank the phone says Fast charging. When on stock charger, it's just charging! Don't understand why..but I guess the stock charger just plays it safe to protect the phone's battery. I guess this charger shared earlier wouldn't harm the phone's battery...

When you say stock charger, which one do you mean? Coz the phone doesn't come with one. Did you buy a charger from Samsung separately?
I have the 15W Samsung charger which came with my Galaxy Tab S7 (USB A to C cable) as well as the USB PD 25W charger from Samsung (this one uses a USB C to C cable). Both support Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging protocol and the latter supports PD. With the first one, i get fast charging displayed while charging, while with the latter, it shows super fast charging. I've kept both options enabled in settings. Not sure why your charger isnt fast charging your phone. Can you share exactly which charger and cable you're using?

I checked with my charger too. With super fast charging turned off, even my phone displays only charging. With it turned on, display shows super fast charging. It seems the stock charget doesn't display fast charging. Either charging or super fast charging only. Intended behaviour? Bug? Dunno.
