[Q] Is it safe to use my Nexus 7 charger on my Note 2?

Only reason I want to know now is because my cat just chewed up the factory cable

Actually I guess I could just use the Nexus Cabell with the Note 2 plug and there wouldn't be any difference.

Yes it is fine. The phone itself won't draw any more power than it's supposed to if the plug puts out more.

i interchange my cables and chargers all the time...
sometimes i come across a bad underspec-ed cable that wouldn't work... but usually it's ok... microUSB standard afterall

works on mine, i have n7 and gn2

Is My Nexus Breaking My Chargers?

Hopefully you guys can give me some insight here. I've gone through 5 mini usb cables and 1 car charger in the last few weeks. They'll work perfectly for charging my phone and then just stop out of the blue and never work again. I've tried different brands and it's happening with all of them. Could it be the phone?

Are you using any fast charge kernel?
Swype'ed on my CM10 Galaxy Nexus

Your phone is just drawing power, so it's unlikely that your phone smoked your charger.
Check your wall.

No, I haven't flashed any kernels and it's happened with 3 different ROMs

That was my initial thought too but it just seems strange for so many of these things to just break all at the same time s

Question

Hey guys just recently got a Note 8 LTE ver, been wondering, Can I use my Samsung Galaxy S3 charger to charge my Note 8?
Will it cause any issues in the long run?
Thanks.

The note 2 and note 8 charger have a 2A output...so that they are charged fast...and are interchangeable.....
Your s3 charger will charge your note8 but will take longer time to charge...
I don't see Any other issues

[Q] USB charge via PC

Dear friends
Is is possible to charge the device while connected to PC (USB)?

Yes, it is possible.

But very slow..!

Check system and BIOS settings. My motherboard actually supports tablet level charging, so long as I enable it on the BIOS. (Called fast charging, but it's 2.1 amp over usb)

I believe our notes would need a USB 3.0 port like the note 3 or am I wrong?

On mine, it has the charging bolt AND the X. I'm not sure what that means.

Samsung, what that means?
Sent from my SM-P600 using Tapatalk

The Charging bolt combined with the red X means it is not a compatible charger. Basically, it means that it will charge the tablet, but VERY slowly. Almost every charger I have thrown at it has worked. The only thing to generate this on the 2014 edition is the USB 3.0 ports on my laptop (also USB 2.0 ports on my desktop as well). I will check and see if I have any settings in the BIOS that will enable some sort of rapid charging. Will report back with anything I find.

Thx waiting your reply

Sorry it took so long to reply, work as been kicking my ass.
I did check the BIOS on my laptop (Toshiba Qosmio X875 purchased in 3/2013) and there are no USB chare setting other than Sleep and Charge (let's the laptop charge USB devices while the laptop is in sleep mode). No rapid charging setting were in the BIOS. Maybe in newer laptops. basically it means that you will need to connect it to a charger or USB port that has a power output of 2,000mA or 2.0A.

Thanks

My samsung galaxy note 8.0 cannot be charged using charger

Hello everyone, it just happened in a sudden that my samsung note 8.0 cannot be charged using any samsung chargers I had tried to plug in. I can only charge it using my powerbank which I connected via a usb cable. Can ayone anyone please help me with this? What's wrong with it? Thanks in advance.

Are you using the original Samsung USB cable? Some USB cables don't work well for charging, for several reasons.

Are you used custom rom or official rom?

Try a replacement cable. The cables are flimsy and will allow the fine wires to wear and break. Already replaced 2 on my Amazon Kindle, before getting my Note 8.0. Right now I have a small stock on replacement enhanced micro USB cables for backup.

I never root my note, official ROM I guess, the original one since I bought it.

My stock cable screwed up after just two weeks. The micro connector was way too loose and didn't make a connection without a lot of jiggling. I replaced the cable (only) with one from one of my cell phone chargers and it works fine. Samsung saved a few cents by putting cheap ass cables on their chargers.
