Does the note 8 charge real slow when using ?? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

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 ....

[Q] Charging the battery ??

We all know that charging with the stock charger is very very slow so i was wondering if i can use a charger that outputs A) 5.2V/2.4A B) 5.1V/2.1A C) 5.0V/1.2A these are all charger that i have which one is the best to use without damaging the battery ????
none, as long as the charger your using isnt weaker than the stock charger, it'll make no difference. Having a 2amp charger might produce more current, but the phones going to accept only what its programmed for, which is what the stock charger outputs.
Its safest to use the stock charger with the stock cable, and if your phones fairly new, don't worry, charging speeds up after a week or two.

Phone has power supply control chip that limits the maximum charging current (1A in case of HTC One). Unlike fast USB charging maximum charging current is not something that is possible to be changed from any software.

charging note3

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?

note charger

im using galaxy wonder charger to charge my note phone but it charges very slow ... i tried to charge using usb wire connected to a laptop and it was faster ... if i get another charger whould the charging be faster or not ?? and what type of chargers should i get for my phone ?
Hi. This was asked before, try searching.
One thing I've noticed when I had the stock rom on my Note was the insane amount of power the Note took, the bad charging cable, and stock charger. Never was able to charge it while it was on. I ended up getting a heavy duty charge cable and a 1 Amp (1,000 mAH) charger. Charges much better now.

Charging time?

Is it just my device or does this thing charge super slow? I can't even get a full charge in a hour and a half and the battery is only 410mah.
Do you use original AC Adapter? I use another one now and I can get it charged in 45 minutes, which is ok to me.

I'm using the turbo charger from Motorola. I guess I can try another brick.

I use my Samsung charger with 2.0A and from 5% to 100 in an hour.. My orginal LG charger was only 0.7A!

I would advise against doing this. You will shorten the battery life due to the extra heat produced. Always use a lower amp charger unless you are in a rush!

Can someone tell me how long the actual charging time exactly takes ?
I use the original charger that comes with the device and it takes about 3 to 4 hours to fully charge the watch.
I find that quite long as I read the comments here.
The first tames it takes only 1,5 hours to charge it but all the other times it goes real slow.
A factory reset didn't help to resolve this issue.
Thanks.
As far as i remember battery have a capacity 410mAh, original charger have power output 700mAh, so charging time should be about 40-45 minutes max.
Change usb cable, if it doesn't help change charger (but it should have power output >700mAh)
PS. AFAIK using charger with power output >700mAh is harmless because watch limits charging current by itself.
Measuring charging time is best indicator.
Charging with 2.0A adapter will not increase the charging speed - the watchregulates the charging current, it will not just blindy "connect" the charger to the battery (in fact, I can't think of any piece of electronics that would have the charging logic in the adapter nowadays).
I had no problems with any chargers, not even with USB charging - the battery is very small, so unless you have a charger that can't put even 500mA you should have no problem.
I've seen an issue where the watch was "charging" constantly and ended with 85% and wouldn't charge anymore - reboot fixed that and it showed 100%.
I was thinking that your charge takes so long because you could have some process draining your battery in the meanwhile (that starts when you connect your phone, like a tasker thing or smt). Newbie thoughts so correct me if this is impossible
I could try to do a factory reset and see after that if it charges much faster then now.
For the moment i have a few apps on the watch, i do not know if it matters or not for to influence the charging time.
It's weird that we do not have the ability to load the watch while it is off.
From the moment that i put it on the charger it turns on automatically !
hello my friends.
the charging dock is limited to 0.85 A (850mA)
It makes not more sense to use a Adapter with 2.0 A Output. It won't charge faster.
Look if every pin on your dock is ok.
also the connection pin on your watch.
Try to clean a little bit with high percentage alcohol.
best regards
Problem solved by using another USB cable.
Now fully charged in 1,5 till 2 hours.
I haven't measured the charging time of my watch but it looks to me pretty fast. I guess with original charger 30 mins - 45 max, not a min more.
Don't sweat the amps

Hi,
that statement isn't particularly correct. The charging system in the watch (as with any LiIon battery) will draw as much current as is "good for it" and no more.
Just because a charger offers 2A doesn't mean that this is the amount of current flowing through the charger / battery!

Charging speed

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the BLU R1 HD can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
Must use Blu charger. Otherwise, charging speed will be 30% lower. I checked with Ampere. Using Blu charger, can charge from 10-100 in about ~2 hours. Not bad.
My experience has been different. If you're heavily using the phone (google maps for navigation for example) the battery will barely charge and it will get very hot. The phone maintains charge well, however charging it up is definitely a 3-4 hour process, if I plug it in for 15 minutes with no use it's about 5-10% on the battery max. I did not find the charger that came with the phone to be any different than most other chargers I had lying around, same charge time (most were higher amperage anyway, being throttled by the phone regardless).
3 because it does charge very slowly, even compared to older non fast charge phones I've had, I think I read that it maxes out at [email protected] which is quite slow.
It's not as big of a deal as the battery life is excellent and it was only $60, but you can't get around calling the charging slow
Definitely limited charging speed, if I use a Samsung 2 amp charger im looking at about 3.5 hours to max charge, whats weird is I used a Samsung 1 amp charger and achieved full charge from 8% to full in just under 2 hours. How does a manufacturer cripple charging port?? -_-

Yes, that's why I said you have to use the Blu charger. I have no idea how they cripple it.

Here's how long it took to charge my R1 HD from 1% until 100% with the Wi-Fi on and radio on. 2 hours and 39 minutes...
Standard BLU charger and cable used.
It's really crappy that BLU somehow cripples the charging time if you choose to use a different charger or cable.
That's got to be the thing I hate the most about this phone. Sigh....
I just got his phone and while I work I stream videos and music all day long at my desk. I keep the phone plugged in the entire time and I've noticed the battery percentage will only increase 1% per hour while charging & using the phone at the same time. Previously I was using the iPhone 6s doing the same thing, it charged 100% quickly. But with nothing changing on the iPhone 7 I switched to android on a cheap phone while I wait for the Samsung Galaxy S8
How does the device behave with Power Banks or 2.1 V outputs?
