Hello all,
I've purchased a car power adapter spec'ed at 500mA. To my disappointment, the Galaxy does not appear to be charging when connected to that one.
The factory-supplied outlet adapter is spec'ed at 700mA.
So, what's the min spec for a charger that would work for the Galaxy ? Any Nokia car chargers that are known to be working (if so, which models)
TIA for the help..
http://tinyurl.com/29zpnsl 5th link and they recommend Dash Genie charger. Why would you like a nokia one ?
Thanks.
Why would I "like" a Nokia charger? Price. And because I'm fed up with buying car chargers and holders each and every time I change my phone...
I got a Samsung branded one (CAD300UBE), will cost you around $10~15. I always try to buy original accessories, because I don’t want to risk damaging the phone or the battery by using a cheap crappy charger off eBay. If you are buying a $700 phone then surely you can afford $15 on a decent charger.
EDIT : If you are in US, Amazon is selling Samsung CAD300UB for $6.69! RRP is $19.
Who is getting the new wireless charger? Also it has magnets to center the phone.

Phil Nickenson of Android Central has both and said it won't work, they're not compatible.
Well, in that thread he only said the Urbane charger didn't charge his G Watch R.
He didn't answer your question about the other way around, did he?
I am too looking for a spare charger for my Urbane, and would be happy with a third party charger, but so far there only seems to be third party chargers available for G Watch R (not so strange, Urbane has just been released).
I just tried it. You can get a Urbane to charge in a G Watch R cradle, but you can't just set it on. You have to slide it around a bit to get the contacts to match up. Then it charges fine, just don't bump it or it may move off the contacts.
You can buy a spare Urbane cradle from the Google Store for $19.99. https://store.google.com/product/lg_watch_urbane_charging_cradle
FYI.... As of this moment, the official OEM charging cradle for the Urbane is back in stock on Google. $19.99 plus tax, free shipping.
I had been waiting for this.
From what I can tell nothing charges better then the OEM charger that came with the phone. Does anyone know where I can buy the exact same one?
Good choice for you
You can try CHOETECH Type C Charger. It seems charge as fast as google original factory charger.
Here pictures show the charge speed and total charge time(1 hour 35 minutes). (Pictures from choetech thread)
Nexus 5x's battery management is very sensitive to the temperature of the battery, the original 5v 3a charger is actually no quicker than most 5v 2a chargers.

What about the universal charger at the Google Store? They only sell one.
Going by this http://www.droid-life.com/2015/10/19/nexus-6p-nexus-5x-quick-charge/ it looks like OEM is the way to go. With all these being expensive ~$20 it seems like I might as well buy an OEM one.
First screenshot is my phone sitting idle using 279mA.
Second is the official LG USB Type-C charger that came with the phone, reaching a max of 2639mA.
Third is an Aukey QC 2.0 PowerBank with a Type-C adapter, reaching a max of 1226mA.
Fourth is an original Motorola Turbo Charger with an official Google USB Type-C cable plugged in, reaching a max of 1197mA.
Fifth is a Hikeren Thunder Charge adapter that claims to be 5V/3A, with a Google Type-C cable, reaching a max of 1962mA.
Sixth is a Samsung Fast Charger with a Google Type-C cable, reaching a max of 1845mA.
Last is a Tronsmart Type-C car charger, reaching a max of 1833mA.
Official LG USB Type-C charger: 2642mA
Aukey QC 2.0 PowerBank: 1241mA
Original Turbo Charger: 1314mA
Hikeren 5V/3A Thunder Charger: 1988mA
Samsung Fast Charger: 1961mA
Tronsmart QC 2.0 Car charger: 2511mA
I bought the Google single charger with attached USB C cable for $25, leave that in my work bag so I can charge anywhere. I like how the cable is thinner on this charger and it charges just like the one the 5X came with.

I'm glad that one works, but I don't think $25 is a good price for such a device. I'm also displeased that the cable is permanently attached.
I'm using NT90C (an older version than the currently available one) and it charges almost as fast. Those go for $15 at the most, and are a very good unit for the money.

I am looking for the original Nexus 5X Charger too. But I can not find it.

I saw a few on ebay, but they are shipping from China, so I am concerned that they are fakes that will not work well.
They also have listings for the 6P charger and the pictures show the Huawei Part number, but the 5X one does not unfortunately
I bought it at LG service (repair) center

How do you find an LG service center, even a third party one, for mobile devices?
The service center locators on lg.com always seem to be for countries other than the US, and return "no data" when I search US zip codes. (E.g. http://www.lg.com/in/support/repair-warranty/locate-repair-center ). There's a "repair center" locator for the US, but mobile devices are not an option. The only option for mobile devices in the US seems to be to mail them in.
