I want a reliable charger for my Note 2. The one that came with it is 2A, but its european and i'm too lazy to use an adapter. So i'm looking for an "american" style charger similar to my old S3 charger.
if not OEM, than maybe a 3rd part charger?
I'm trying to keep it under $20.
Just bought this one, claimed and looks like original, but haven't got it yet, so i don't know ...

Has anyone found a wall charger that they're happy with? I have an Amazon basics 2.1 Amp one that charges OK and shows up as an A/C charger in the battery stats, but it's not as fast as the stock one (which already is slow).
I'd post a link to what I have, but the forum still sees me as a newbie even though I've been lurking around for a few years now.

Same... :crying:
If you don't really care about super fast charging time almost all usb wall chargers are the same because of the limitations of a usb cable. Just color, shape, and size might vary
I'm using the my hp Touchpad charger. It seems like it charges faster than the original charger. I'll have to test and see though.

I bought a pogo charger so it won't take up the micro usb slot and also safer charging with pets (or kids). If I'm lucky it will charge faster too.
the pogo charger uses the original samsung ac adapter though.. it doesn't come with one
I just use any random charger I have (I think I use an old Kindle one right now) and leave it charge while I sleep. I have no complaints and have a POGO on order.
I ordered the Powergen chargers for both the wall and my car. They supply 3.1 amps so whatever the max is that the N10 will take, it will get it.
Search for "powergen 3.1" on Amazon and you'll find both.
I'm using my Asus Transformer Prime charger with mine. It seems to work well.

Nice tip - thanks. That and the POGO has to be about as fast as it gets PLUS with the second USB port I will be able to charge my phone and tablet at the same time, same charger.

Thanks everyone for your input. I ended up ordering the Powergen 3.1 charger suggested above. I'll report back on what my experience is. I did note that one of the reviews of that item at Amazon says it charges the Nexus 10 well, so my hopes are high.
Next question - anyone know what happens if you plug in the POGO charger and a USB charger at the same time?
Your charger isnt going to make a great deal of difference in charge time. An updated and/or custom kernel will help a LOT more with that.
The AC wall unit isn't a charger, it's the power supply for the charger inside the N10.
Me and another N10 owner measured how much current the N10 draws from the PS and it was less than 1A, so the device isn't even asking anywhere near the max that the PS can supply. Unless there is someother reason and there very well could be, a larger PS "might" be a waste of time/money.
I think the N10 charger uses a special usb protocol which allows it to charger faster than most

I'm intrigued; how is that? More importantly, does such a kernel currently exist? I started this thread in search of a second charger that just worked as well as the original one. I'd be happier if could find something that did better than the OEM.

What I can tell you is that both powergen units charge the N10 fine.
What I can't tell you is whether they charge the N10 any faster than the stock wall unit. I haven't done any testing.
I'm expecting my pogo cable any day, maybe I'll do some testing then.
There are so many differing theories here, who knows?

Yes so many, maybe if someone would write to Mr google and ask him he would explains it to us hehehe
I have seen some dual USB port PS that are rated "total" for both "not" each port. How is this PowerGen 3.1?
Just check and it's listed as "shared", so that's 3.1A total.
The description clearly states that each port can supply up to 3.1A. If both are used at once, the 3.1A is shared.
Guys, do you know any universal wireless car charger- fast enough when for navigation?
Also need to be universal (now S7 Edge) as I like changing phones every few months.
Any Quick Charge 2.0 in car charger works. Even on the Exnyos model. Tried and tested myself. I had a QC2.0 compatible in car charger for my HTC ONE M8 and it works initialising the fast charge feature on my S7 Edge now. Look on Amazon for Aukey Quick Charge 2.0 and you'll find loads of results.
TBH I was thinking about wireless one, already got Tronsmart® QC2.0 USB
Seen this? One of the coolest mods...

Sorry misread the title. Didn't see wireless! I'm going to fashion something like the OP in Redflea link.
Okay so I'm in the UK and I'm trying to find a UK plugged rapid wall charger equivalent to the one in the box. Why is this so hard?
I'd have thought that LG/Google would sell the standard wall charger as an accessory somewhere but nope.
The only wall charger I can find which claims to be Nexus 5X rapid charge compatible is: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Electronic...id=1462964507&sr=8-2&keywords=choetech+type+c
At £17 it seemed really pricey but after receiving it, I realise that it doesn't even come with a table.
So then I stump up another £7 to get an Anker Type-C to Type-C cable (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anker-Powe...1462964577&sr=8-4&keywords=anker+type+c+cable) only to find that it's only USB 2.0 rated so isn't capable of doing the rapid charging.
All I want is a spare UK spec rapid wall charger for my Nexus 5X. Ideally identical to the OEM one but.
Why is this so hard?
This is the official Google one:

Dont know if you can get a white LG one though

That's great, wish I saw that before I already purchased the Choetech one. I really don't know why they are so pricey. £20 for a charger is a lot.
Anyone got a charging dock? or recommend one please OP3 on its way and like to have it stood up next to the bed like!
I would also like any suggestions for a cradle/dock. There are plenty of USB C cradles listed on Amazon and other sites, but they don't seem to support the Oneplus charging system.
Anyone know of a cradle/dock that would allow me to use the USB C cable that came with the OnePlus 3?
well if it's a usb dock overnight charging should be ok regardless of dash or not? I'm thinking if there isn't one soon I'll make one or something using a dash cable.
This one I am looking:
https://www.amazon.es/Type-C-soport...68248445&sr=8-14&keywords=base+de+carga+usb+c
It is Benson-tested (Benson is the Google Engineer that started all the thread about USB Type-C compliancy). It will NOT fast-charge or Dash-Charge your phone, but it will also not make a fire out of your phone. worth a try, I think I will order it soon.
