Faulty Charger/Cable? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II

So I have notice that charging my phone takes really long using out of box charge and cable. I had 15% when I plugged it in 3 hours ago and now that I go and get it it's just at 50% :banghead: Any ideas if this is normal or if I should contact Sprint or Samsung for a replacement?

You're probably running the stock ROM, right?
Stock ROM uses software to limit to 2A wall charger to only input 500mA to charge the battery at 5V

Change your cable for some they tend to go bad

I just put a piece of paper over the middle 2 pins on the other end of the USB cable.

Sounds kinda dangerous lol

Not dangerous. It disables the data pins so the phone thinks it's plugged into a wall charger.

I just use a wall charger. Tmobile brand and I use the usb cable for the pc. So the paper mod is for the pc charging?

Yes, it puts it in fast charge. Probably depends on the USB port's voltage as to if it works, I'm using front panel port on my Mac pro at work.

Can someone make a video regarding this method? I maybe retarded or something. I get that disabling data can trick into fast charge. But why not just disable data (USB connection) in the settings? Wouldn't that be a same difference?
Please someone make a video to show and confirm this. I also know that amperage can make a difference in charging method. Will non-high voltage with this mod will enable it like the wall charger??

Its not just "disabling" data ports on the USB.. Its built into a kernel from source, there is no third party app that can enable this. If it simply disabled the "data" functionality of the USB then simply cutting the cable apart and cutting out the two prongs would enable this but it doesnt. It is kernel based stuff.
The kernel pretty much can tell whats plugged into it, AC Charger, USB Charger, Car charger.
When you enable fast charging you are only able to enable it for the last two options. Enabling simply tells the kernel that it is able to charge faster based off of how the kernel is coded. If you have source code for the kernel, you technically could tell it to charge at 1000mV (1 volt) but that would destroy whatever charger you are using for nothing can charge that fast (yet)
Simply put, fast charging is a kernel level mod that no third party app is capable of enabling without firstly the kernel supporting it.

Heating galaxynote2 and not charging as well

My galaxy note 2 is almost 3 month older and I used to use my cell phone while its charging too.

Are you using the charger that came with it?
Are you using it with a usb extension cable?
Flash any roms or kernels to it?

Note II Not Charging Properly...

I have a relative who is has note 2 that was recently rooted. We have gone through many different roms trying to resolve the issue, but to no avail. The phone can sit on the charger for over 12 hrs straights, and will not reach 100%. currently it has been charging for 8 hrs, and is only at 35%. could the wise minds of XDA assist me in coming up with a solution to this particular issue?
Likely a faulty usb cable.

The note 2 uses a stock 2amp charger. If you are using any other charger, you will have that problem. Most other chargers only output .5amps

[Q] Phone not charging fast

I thought the note 3s usb 3.0 is supposed to charge pretty fast. My LG G2 with almost the same size mah charges really fast compared to this phone. Is this normal?
