Hi folks,
If I use a normal USB plug and usb-c cable, is it ok to charge the phone overnight?
I know it won't charge fast but I don't need it to overnight!
I keep my original charger in the office at work.
Cheers
Simple answer, yes.
Any reasonable phone charger would be ok (5V2A or better preferably), it just won't fast change as you said (almost certainly at 5V2A max)

Hey guys, I just bought my One a couple weeks ago and I'm loving it so far. However, I'm having an issue with the USB charging speed.
I know USB charging speed is slower than wall charging speeds, but the speeds I have been getting are ridiculous. To charge my phone from 0-100 takes about 9 hours over USB when the phone is in sleep mode and not being used. Can anyone else tell me if they're getting the same kind of extremely slow USB charging speeds? Is this normal for the phone? I've been thinking about replacing it and seeing how the next one fares.
I'm charging in usb 3.0 port and takes 5h

I haven't timed it, but yes USB charging is very slow in general and especially on this phone. I've had several HTC Ones, and had the same experience.

Some Kernels have an option for fast charge which is supposed to help with it but certain usb ports only put out a certain amount of power. Also I know a problem with the OG note was with fast charge enabled a few charging ports burnt out (mine included). It was easy to replace them on that phone but this one will be more difficult if it does the same thing.
The problem is that the phone sees the difference between an AC charger and a usb charger. With an AC charger it can charge with a maximum around 850mA while with an USB charger it charges with an maximum of 500mA.
There properbly is a trick how to make the phone think it's on AC charger, while it's actually on an USB charger, and therefore charge with a higher current, but I haven't found out how yet.

Depends on the current battery level of the phone. Anything above 83%(somewhere around there), even on AC charger it will slow down to 500mAh at most.

I am having a problem where charging is beyond slow when using this cable. It will charge 50% in 8 hours.
And if phone is in use it will discharge while plugged in.
When i switch back to original cable that came with my note 2 it takes 4h or so to fully charge my battery.
Anybody else have tested this or similar cable?
I no longer need it since i got my zero-lemon battery but it would be good for my wife on her S3
Is there a tested alternative someone can recommend?

Mine too, too slow. Check the current with: Galaxy Charger current, get from play store. Only 400mAH.
and,
I bought one which LED, 1 meter, it can not charge. 0mAH.
:crying:
The longer/thinner the cable the slower the charging will be. Its best to always either stick with OEM or verified manufacturers for chargers and cables
I always charge my phone using 5V 1A conventional charger, never use original HTC charger because it's so slow (I'm talking about 0-100% in 14h)
Tonight I leave it charging when I'm sleeping, yes I usually do that. I woke up with no power on my phone, so my phone don't charge in a whole night.
So basically when using conventional charger it won't charge my phone anymore. But when i use the original one, it's charging.
What's really happen? Why I no longer can charge with conventional charger?
And why my original charger takes 14h to get full charge?
Conventional charger is dead.
Also check the usb cable.
Good luck.
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?

I have same Aukey 3 Port USB wall charger, fast charge work on Orange USB port
Hey guys. So I Was wondering whether it damages the battery to charge with the fast charger. If so, should I charge with a standard charger instead?
I was also wondering if it is ok to charge the phone overnight with the fast charger.
Thanks!
Galaxy Note 5 includes auto-discharged feature, even with fast charger. I dont know clearly what your Galaxy Note 5 model is, mine is 9208. When I try to charge with cable charger or fast charger, my phone automatically discharges with all charger when fully charged and LED notification turns to green.
I have not tested with wireless charger so I have no idea.
